What was William the Conqueror's trick to get the saxsons to retreat?

During the Battle of Hastings William's army (Normans) was at a standstill as Harold's army (English) had a strong shield wall witch was almost impossible to break. Instead William had a plan, find out there weakness! On two occasions his left wing had broken and the English chased after it. When the Normans regained control the English barely made it back to their own line in time to reform the shield wall. Observing this, William ordered an acted retreat to draw the English out yet again and this time catch them in the open. He used this tactic to successfully perform this 3 times. This was his trick.
