>Thirty seconds later, engineers detonated the mine charges laid under no man's land and the German trench line, destroying a number of German strong points and creating secure communication trenches directly across no man's land. Light field guns laid down a barrage that advanced in predetermined increments, often 100 yards (91 m) every three minutes, while medium and heavy howitzers established a series of standing barrages further ahead, against known defensive systems. ⇒30秒後に、工兵らが中間地帯やドイツ軍の塹壕戦線の下に敷設した地雷爆弾を爆発させ、ドイツ軍の強化地点をいくつか破壊して、中間地帯を直接横切る安全なコミュニケーション塹壕を造った。しばしば、軽野戦砲で予定した100ヤード(91m)進むごとに、3分おきに集中砲火を加えた。一方、中型・大型榴弾砲は、より遠方にある既知の防御システムに対して、定点から一連の集中砲火を行った。 >During the early fighting the German divisional artilleries, despite heavy losses, were able to maintain their defensive firing. As the Canadian assault advanced, it overran many of the German guns because there was no means of moving them to the rear on account of many of the horses being killed in the initial gas attack. The 1st, 2nd and 3rd Canadian Divisions reported reaching and capturing their first objective, the Black Line, by 6:25 am. ⇒当初の戦いの間、ドイツ軍の師団砲兵隊は大きな損失を受けたにもかかわらず、防御のための砲火は維持することができた。(しかし)最初の毒ガス攻撃で多くの馬が死んだため、カナダ軍の攻撃が進むと、彼らドイツ兵にとっては後衛部の方へ動く術がなく、ドイツ軍の銃砲は多くが蹂躙された。第1、第2、第3カナダ軍師団は、午前6時25分までに彼らの最初の標的「黒い線」に到達し、攻略したと報告した。 >The 4th Canadian Division encountered a great deal of trouble during its advance and was unable to complete its first objective until some hours later. After a planned pause, when the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Canadian Divisions consolidated their positions, the advance resumed. Shortly after 7:00 am, the 1st Canadian Division captured the left half of its second objective, the Red Line, and moved the 1st Canadian Brigade forward to mount an attack on the remainder. ⇒第4カナダ師団は、進軍の間に多くのトラブルに直面して、数時間後まで当初の目的を果たすことができなかった。予定していた休止の後、第1、第2、第3カナダ軍師団が彼らの陣地を強化したとき、進軍は再開した。午前7時直後に、第1カナダ師団が第2の標的「赤い線」の左半分を攻略して、残存兵への攻撃を開始すべく第1カナダ旅団を前方へ移動させた。
