The Second Battle of Villers-Bretonneux, came during the period of The Battle of Lys, 24 - 27 of April 1918, but was launched against the British front lines in front of Amiens. The Germans had developed a small number of tanks, and used them during this offensive, thirteen of their model A7V’s supported the advance, making it the largest use of German tanks in the Great War. The attack was preceded by artillery, using both mustard gas and high explosive rounds, the Germans quickly engulfed and broke through the 8th Division, making a three mile wide gap in the British line. Villers-Bretonneux fell to the advancing Germans, and the main strategic centre of Amiens became under immediate threat. General Henry Rawlinson responded by launching a counter-attack, his plan to use two Australian units in a pincer manoeuvre, the 15th Brigade under General Thomas William Glasgow would attack north of the town and the 13th under General H.E. “PompeyÕ Elliott, the south, British troops would offer support, in a role that would see them through the gap between the Australians. Artillery support was available, but to achieve surprise, there would be no barrage to soften up the German positions. The attack took place on the night of the 24th and 25th of April, the operation had originally been due to start at 8 pm, but General Glasgow argued that it would still be light at this time, and would cause terrible consequences for his men, after much debate it was decided that the attack would commence at 10 pm. Entrenched German machine gun teams began taking a toll on the advancing Australians, but this never deterred them from their objective, and after a number of courageous charges, the two brigades swept around the town, successfully capturing the German positions, by night fall, Villers-Bretonneux had been recaptured. Lieutenant Ledward 23rd Brigade, 8th Division. “At Villiers - Bretonneux the battalions were decimated in six hours by the perfectly infernal bombardment. Very few prisoners were taken. The German tanks did serious execution too. They moved over our trenches and enfiladed them so that the wretched defenders were rendered defenceless and stood helplessly to be mown down. But it was the bombardment that did the worst damage. That was truly ghastly business.Õ..
