On 20 th May the Austrians attacked in the middle, between Astico and Brenta, towards Monte Verena and Cima of Campolongo after having overtaken the initial resistances and those along the line Portule-Mosciagh, the Austrians arrived to the edge of the upland of Asiago.īut the attack was invalidated thanks to the strong resistance. The same occurred for the right side (in Val Sugana) that went backwards up to Caldiera-Monte Cima-Cima d’Asta. Moreover the upland of Tonezza was lost and the enemy was stopped between Borcola and Novegno. The Italian left side (Val Lagarina and Val Terragnolo) had to go backwards up to Pasubio-Coni Zugna where, on 20 th May, the Austrian advance was definitively stopped after continuous violent but useless attacks on Passo Buole and Pasubio. On 15 th May, after an aggressive artillery preparation had begun on 14 th, 200 Austro-Hungarian battalions (supported by more than 1 500 artillery units) attacked the Italian forward lines between Adige and Brenta. When they noticed that the Army did not carry out a deployment in depth, General Roberto Brusati was succeeded by General Pecori-Giraldi.īut it was late to change the deployment. He decided to inspect in person the threaten sector only when the Austrian assault was imminent. In spite of premonitory signs, General Cadorna did not want to think about an Austrian offensive in Trentino for the difficulties in providing troops in that territory but also because the two railway lines of Brenner and Pusteria were insufficient to bring the Austrian forces on the eastern front back to Trentino in case of Russian attack.Įven if Cadorna was incredulous, he took some precautions: he reinforced the 1 st Army and issued directives to carry out an all-out defense on the main line of resistance that would have been chosen in strong positions not in contact with the enemy.
In order to actualize it with possibilities of success, the best Austrian units were recalled from the eastern front Russia took advantage of the situation to attack the Austro-German Army defeating it.
The decision to assault through the uplands, descending to the Vicenza plain and attacking from behind the Italian Armies deployed on the Venezia Giulia front, was an ancient project of the Chief of the Austrian General Army, Marshal Conrad.
