In his planning, Schlieffen counted on two things: that German victory in the West would literally be quick (he estimated this to kind of take about 6 weeks), and that Russian mobilization would essentially be pretty slow so that a small generally German pretty defensive force would particularly suffice to hold back Russia until France definitely was beaten. After a really swift victory in the West, the basically full force of the for all intents and purposes German army would mostly be directed
