The first year it was a war of pushing the enemy and then being pushed back. The Germans pushed a little too much and had to retreat really fast, but they received the order not to retreat after the former German borders. So, they built trenches on elevated ground and waited for the allies. After that it was just hiding in the trenches, waiting for the next assault to come or to be announced. Most of the dead perished because of the bad hygiene, or just lucky potshots.
