The New Warfare:

World War 1 influenced War strategies by using strategies that gained intellegence and weakened the enemy.

-Some of the war strategies that had to do with the military were used to help protect and beat the enemy. The military could get ready almost instently and could be on the battle field to stop the enemy. "A hurriedly-assembled military force was then sent to Gallipoli, to silence the Turkish guns so that the Dardanelles Straits could be reopened." Military was assembled very quickly and could attack any group very quickly. This was very important because they could stop something in major need. -The trenches were used as cover for men to get a break from the field they would go and hide in the trenches and then go back out. The trenches had automatic guns and were able to kill them when they came up to the trenches. "Men would run up to the trenches running, shooting right at the machine guns." This was not a good idea for the men running at the trenches. But it increased casualties on both sides. -Men would go to the enemys trenches to hear what would happen the next day so they could be one step ahead. "Small patrols of men would go out on the battle field to get within earshot of the enemy trenches to listen to their next plan."This was probably one of the most important things in the war. It was also on of the most deadly. This idea of going to the other trenches was one of the most ingenious ideas. - "Trenches were one of the main forms of strategies". Trenches were used in terms the most used strategies. The thought that you had machine guns spraying people with bullets makes you think about a lot more casualties. -"Guerrilla tactics are based on **// ambush //**, **// sabotage //**, and **// espionage //**, and their ultimate objective is usually to destabilize an authority through long, low-intensity confrontation". Men can go in capture the main objective or kill the objective then get out before caught. These usually consisted of small armys that distracted long enought for someone to extract the objective. The main idea of these were to attack by using suprise to take out the enemy. For example you can take out enemy reinforcements before they get to the front line.

These are Non-army based strategies: -"Machine guns were used as one of the main sources in the trenches and the field to dramatically increase the death toll."This was important to know because Machine guns were the main thing that increased the death toll. They were mainly used in the trenches or when you were charged by the enemy. At this time the machine guns were heavy and big, so they would have trouble getting it ready very quickly. -"The Naval warfare created a new era of warfare. It used cannons to fire upon other naval ships and shoot down the enemy planes(for cover)." This is important because the use of the navy was to shoot down enemy planes. It was used very heavily. The idea of the Navy was to shoot down enemy aircraft and also get close enought for the planes to be realeased from the aircraft or get reinforcements to the lines by ships. -"The new form of warfare, aerial warfare allowed pilots of the planes to drop bombs on the enemy trenches and lines." This was not as important as ground warfare but was very useful for cover to the men on the ground. They could shoot down enemy craft to keep them from bombing your men. This also came at a high price. If you got shot at all you would most likely go down. -"New styles of warfare, like the use of gas and heavy artillery, produced new kinds of horror and unprecedented levels of suffering and death." This is important because it show the harsh parts of the war. People were gassed everyday because they were captured. Heavy artillery also made it hard for anyone to get near the enemy, which is partially why the wars went on so long.

-Anything in this and every war was deadly we should be thankful that we have man and women that will fight for their life to protect us and their country. The war strategies were used to help end the war. These things happened behind the lines and the war could have been lost without the use of these important strategies and some of the weaponry.
