The Battle of the Ancre Heights (1 October … The Battle of the Ancre Heights (1 October – 11 November 1916), is the name given to the continuation of British attacks after the Battle of Thiepval Ridge from 26 to 28 September during the Battle of the Somme. The battle was conducted by the Reserve Army (renamed Fifth Army on 29 October) from Courcelette near the Albert–Bapaume road, west to Thiepval on Bazentin Ridge. British possession of the heights would deprive the German 1st Army of observation towards Albert to the south-west and give the British observation north over the Ancre valley to the German positions around Beaumont-Hamel, Serre and Beaucourt. The Reserve Army conducted large attacks on 1, 8, 21, 25 October and from 10 to 11 November. Many smaller attacks were made in the intervening periods, amid interruptions caused by frequent heavy rain, which turned the ground and roads into rivers of mud and grounded aircraft. German forces in footholds on the ridge, at the east end of Staufen Riegel (Regina Trench) and in the remaining parts of Schwaben-Feste (Schwaben Redoubt) to the north and Stuff Redoubt (Staufen-Feste) north-east of Thiepval, fought a costly defensive battle with numerous counter-attacks and attacks, which delayed the British capture of the heights for more than a month. Stuff Redoubt fell on 9 October and the last German position in Schwaben Redoubt fell on 14 October, exposing the positions of the 28th Reserve Division in the Ancre valley to British ground observation. A German retreat from the salient that had formed around St. Pierre Divion and Beaumont Hamel either side of the Ancre, was considered by Generalquartiermeister Erich Ludendorff and the new army group commander Field Marshal Rupprecht, Crown Prince of Bavaria and rejected, due to the lack of better defensive positions further back, in favour of counter-attacks desired by General Fritz von Below the 1st Army commander. General Max von Gallwitz the 2nd Army commander, noted in early October that so many of his units had been moved to the 1st Army north of the Somme, that he had only one fresh regiment in reserve. The German counter-attacks were costly failures and by 21 October, the British had managed to advance 500 yd (460 m) and take all but the last German foothold in the eastern part of Staufen Riegel (Regina Trench). A French offensive during the Battle of Verdun on 24 October, forced the Germans to suspend the movement of troops to the Somme front. From 29 October – 9 November, British attacks were postponed due to more poor weather, before the capture of 1,000 yd (910 m) of the eastern end of Regina Trench by the 4th Canadian Division on 11 November. Fifth Army operations resumed in the Battle of the Ancre (13–18 November). the Battle of the Ancre (13–18 November).

, La battaglia delle colline dell'Ancre è st … La battaglia delle colline dell'Ancre è stata una prolungata nell'ottobre 1916, nel corso della battaglia della Somme. Hubert Gough, tenente generale della riserva, riuscì alla fine a uscire dalle posizioni occupate dalle sue truppe sin dall'inizio della battaglia della Somme (1º luglio), con l'intenzione di continuare ad esercitare pressione sulle forze tedesche, sul pianoro che si affaccia sul fiume Ancre. In tre settimane di combattimenti, la penetrazione più profonda fu di circa 900 metri. L'esercito canadese, comandato da sir Julian Byng fu pesantemente coinvolto nello scontro, in particolare la quarta divisione canadese aggregata al . I canadesi furono impressionati dalla condotta tenuta da Gough e manifestarono riluttanza a combattere nuovamente sotto al suo comando. Nel 1917, quando il corpo canadese era guidato dal generale canadese Arthur Currie, nel corso della battaglia di Passchendaele tale posizione si tramutò in un completo rifiuto. Alle 15:15 (ora zero) del primo ottobre, i canadesi provarono nuovamente a prendere la (una trincea), nel corso di un acquazzone, attaccando su un fronte di oltre un chilometro. L'artiglieria aveva bombardato la trincea ma la quarta e la quinta divisione di fucilieri da montagna scoprirono che le barriere di filo spinato e le mitragliatrici tedesche erano ancora efficienti. Il ventiduesimo, il ventiquattresimo ed il venticinquesimo battaglione di fanteria dovettero fronteggiare barriere di filo spinato intonse ed un pesante fuoco di sbarramento, ottenendo successi limitati, riuscendo solo ad occupare una parte della trincea "Kenora". Dopo questo primo attacco la pioggia incessante rese impossibile la prosecuzione dell'offensiva per un'intera settimana, tuttavia le truppe canadesi prepararono la seconda parte dell'offensiva. La seconda fase ebbe inizio sotto una fredda pioggia, alle 4:50 dell'otto ottobre. Otto battaglioni canadesi rinnovarono l'attacco contro la Regina Trench. L'artiglieria non riuscì nuovamente a danneggiare le difese tedesche e le unità canadesi lanciate all'attacco andarono incontro ad una forte resistenza. Nel corso di uno degli episodi più toccanti della guerra, il ventiduenne , del sedicesimo battaglione, fu decorato con la Victoria Cross per aver suonato la sua cornamusa, esposto al fuoco nemico, per infondere coraggio al suo battaglione che si trovava in una situazione di stallo. Richardson sopravvisse all'attacco ma fu ucciso più tardi, lo stesso giorno. Alla fine della giornata pochi obbiettivi erano stati raggiunti, al prezzo di 1.364 vittime. Il corpo canadese in seguito si ritirò, mentre la quarta divisione fu, in un primo tempo, schierata sulla Somme. La fase finale della battaglia iniziò il 21 ottobre, malgrado le piogge trasformato il terreno in un pantano. L'ottantasettesimo ed il centoduesimo battaglione attaccarono la Regina Trench. Questa volta l'artiglieria riuscì ad interrompere i reticolati ed i canadesi catturarono la posizione in soli quindici minuti. Alle sette del mattino del 24 ottobre, il quarantaquattresimo battaglione attaccò un'ulteriore sezione della trincea, ciò avvenne, tuttavia, dopo un'inadeguata preparazione di artiglieria che lasciò le difese tedesche intatte. L'artiglieria martellò le forze attaccanti ed i soldati tedeschi si alzavano in piedi per sparare sui canadesi che avanzavano. L'attacco fallì. Inglesi e canadesi si riorganizzarono e poco dopo la mezzanotte fra il dieci e l'undici novembre lanciarono l'assalto finale contro la parte della Regina Trench ancora in mano ai tedeschi. Gli attaccanti raggiunsero i loro obbiettivi in un paio d'ore concludendo così la battaglia. L'artiglieria continuò a martellare la posizione al punto che gli attaccanti la definirono 'una semplice depressione nel gesso' I vincitori passarono il resto della giornata a consolidare le posizioni conquistate e a difendersi dai contrattacchi germanici, Due giorni dopo l'artiglieria canadese entro in azione per supportare l'attacco britannico sull'Ancre.. La battaglia fu il preludio dell'atto finale dello scontro sulla Somme, la , che ebbe inizio il 13 novembre dello stesso anno.e inizio il 13 novembre dello stesso anno.
