What was the battle of the Amiens?

Answer 1

The Allies started winning.

The Battle of Amiens was a major turning point in the tempo of the war. The Germans had started the offensive with the Schrieffer plan before the war devolved into trench warfare, the race to the sea slowed movement on the Western Front, and the German spring offensive earlier that year had once again given Germany the offensive edge on the Western Front. Armored support helped the Allies tear a hole through trench lines, weakening once impregnable trench positions. The British Third Army with no armored support had almost no effect on the line while the British Fourth Army, with less than a thousand tanks, broke deep into German territory, for example. Australian commander John Monash was knight by George V in the days following the battle.

British war-correspondent Sir Philip Gibbs noted Amiens' effect on the war's tempo, saying on August 27 that "the enemy...is on the defensive" and "the initiative of attack is so completely in our hands that we are able to strike him at many different places." Gibbs also credits Amiens with a shift in troop morale, saying "the change has been greater in the minds of men than in the taking of territory. On our side the army seems to be buoyed up with the enormous hope of getting on with this business quickly" and that "there is a change also in the enemy's mind. They no longer have even a dim hope of victory on this western front. All they hope for now is to defend them long enough to gain peace by negotiation."
