Neither side had fixed bayonets, for fear of accidents in the dark, and in the scrimmage which followed it was chiefly a case of rifle-butts and fists. At this game the Germans proved no match for our men, and were gradually forced back to the bridgehead, where they were held for the remainder of the night. " 54 OPERATIONS OF BRITISH ARMY Early in the morning the Germans withdrew, and the First Berks fell back on the rest of the Second Di- vision, along the road to Guise. It was a very complete... and satisfac- tory little affair. The fight at Landrecies by the Fourth (Guards') Brigade is better known. They had arrived there, very weary, and had got into bil- lets; so weary, indeed, that the Commander-in-Chief could not or- der them farther west, to fill up the gap between Le Cateau and Landrecies. "The men were ex- hausted, and could not get farther in without rest. " The enemy, how- ever, would not allow them this rest. At 8. 30 in the evening came news that Germans in motor- lorries were coming through the THE RETREAT FROM MONS 55 Forest of Mormal in great numbers, and bearing down upon the town.
