In addition to the Feldkanone 96, the Feldhaubitze 98/09 was developed to enable engagement of targets in indirect aiming and against field fortifications and covered dugouts by means of a steeper bullet trajectory. At the outbreak of the First World War, the 7.7 cm Field Cannon 96 n.A. with 5,068 guns and the 10.5 cm Light Field Howitzer 98/09 with 1,260 guns were the standard weapons of the German field artillery; only from 1916 onwards were these replaced or supplemented by improved gun types. -Wikipedia-
