This answer is based on Germany's military strategy in the World War Two. The so-called "Blitzkrieg" was only one of the strategies employed by the German military in WW Two. Only weeks before the invasion of Poland, for example, the military strategy in bringing a quick end to Poland's resistance began when Hitler secured with Stalin, a Non-Aggression Pact. This ensured that Stalin would cooperate with the invasion and as a reward, simply occupy the eastern half of Poland. So here we see military-political strategy at play.Later, Germany would employ "terror" tactics with its V1 and V2 missile strikes at England. Germany's strategy also placed pressure on England's hold on the Middle East by German and Italian troops sweeping eastward in an attempt to dislodge England from Egypt. This strategy was an attempt to spread England's defensives by threatening their position in Africa, while maintaining a threat from France on the isles of Great Britain.

Additionally, Germany attempted to use submarine warfare to disrupt Allied shipping in the Atlantic Ocean.

And, in 1944, Germany prepared a defensive strategy in France in anticipation of an Allied invasion there.

The military operations of Germany and of the Allies were varied and complex. This is a summary of the main strategies used by Germany in that war.
