The Guards Land Rifle Corps was formed in December 1918 in Central Germany (near Zossen) from former members of the IV. An army corps was formed. Later it was called Freikorps Neufville or Black Guard. The number of troops was about 630 people. It consisted of 2 infantry companies, 1 machine gun company, 1 cavalry detachment and 1 artillery battery. In February 1919, Freikorps as part of Freikorps Hülsen in Cottbus participated in the disarmament of the garrison and air base. Later, on September 4, 1919 in Frankfurt, he participated in the overthrow of the Workers' and Soldiers' Council in Frankfurt, occupied Hanau and during the Kappovsky putsch was involved as the authority of order in Frankfurt.
