Answer:

The Trench Warfare

Step-by-step explanation:

Trench warfare refers to a warfare in which rival armed forces launches an attack, counterattack, and defend from comparably permanent systems of trenches dug underground.

The opposing systems of trenches are usually close to each other. Trench warfare is often adopted when the superior firepower of the defense side oblige the opposing forces to dig in so widely as to sacrifice their mobility in order to gain protection.

The Fighting on the eastern front was characterized as Trench Warfare.

Both sides were using sophisticated rifles, guns and canons and there was a complete stalemate in the war.

Trench warfare was adopted by both sides to stand their ground and try to keep a heavy defense against the other side.
