Before the tanks arrived there was a stalemate in the warfare. Both sides had dug themselves (trenches)and in were in strong defensive positions. Thus when Lancelot de Mole (an Australian inventor) invented the tank, the British were able to break through the lines of the enemy and their trenches became useless in the face of the tanks (the heavybarbed wirewas easily overcome with the might of the tanks) . Once the tanks had overcome the defenses and cause panic and mayhem in the enemy lines it became easy for the infantry to move in.
