Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Blitzkrieg (German, literally lightning war or flash war) is a popular name for an offensive operational-level military doctrine which involves an initial bombardment followed by employment of mobile forces attacking with speed and surprise to prevent an enemy from implementing a coherent defense.
Detailed explanation-2: -Blitzkrieg relied on surprise, speed, and ground coverage, making use of each military branch within the Wehrmacht. By calling on seamen and soldiers alike, Germany freed up enough resources to ensure that any resistance could be squashed. Blitzkriegs followed a formulaic approach: attack, penetrate, and encircle.
