Hindenburg and Ludendorff forced a return to the policy of unrestricted submarine warfare on 9 January 1917 and engineered the dismissal of the Chancellor Bethmann-Hollweg and other opponents of the policy the next day. The policy was to resume on 1 February, with the intention of sinking 600,000 long tons (610,000 t) of shipping per month and knocking Britain out of the war in 5–12 months. Optimistic claims by the navy were less important to the decision, than the "desperate" position of the western armies and the decrepitude of Germany's allies. Another front in the west was to be opened by the resumption of air attacks on Britain. New aircraft had become available to replace airships, which had become too vulnerable to British counter-measures in 1916. Planning began in late 1916 and Operation Türkenkreutz began in May 1917. As part of the defensive strategy for the Western Front, five defensive positions were planned to form the basis of the Abwehrschlacht (defensive battle) expected in 1917.

⇒1917年1月9日、ヒンデンブルクとルーデンドルフは無制限の海底戦争政策への復帰を強制して、その翌日、シャンセロール・ベートマン－ホルヴェーク首相と政策反対者の解任を工作した。その政策は、1か月当たり600,000英トン（610,000トン）の船舶を沈め、5か月ないし12か月で英国軍を戦場から追い出すもくろみをもって2月1日に再開することになっていた。この決定（要因）には西部方面軍の「必死の」陣地やドイツの同盟国の衰弱があって、それに比べれば、海軍による楽観的な主張はさほど重要なものではなかった。

⇒西部のもう一つの前線は、英国に対する空爆の再開によって開始されることになっていた。新しい航空機は、飛行船と交換することができるようになったが、それでも1916年の英国軍への対抗策としてはあまりに軟弱であった。この計画は1916年後半に始まり、トゥルケンクロイツ作戦が1917年5月から始まった。西部戦線のための防御戦略の一環として、5つの防御陣地が、1917年に予想される防御戦線（Abwehrschlacht）の基地用に造られる予定となっていた。
