Why are trenches zigzag and not straight?

0

Because if an enemy got into the trenches, theycould stand at one end with a gun and fire continuously and wipe out everyone, having zig zags helps prevent this! The trenches were also zig-zagged because if an enemy shell landed in the trench, it could wipe out a whole platoon if the trench was straight!
