Information on the blitzkrieg?

Blitzkrieg tactics are fast, surprise attacks on a country using planes and bombs, and a lot of infantry. A country, such as Germany, will fly over a country and bomb it, and then send a large army in to finish the attack. They will then leave the country before the country being attacked could gather their military and defend themselves. Since the attack was usually a surprise to the country being attacked, they don't have time to prepare, which makes the attacks very successful. Blitzkrieg tactics are also called lightning tactics, and Germany used them on Poland during the Lightning War.
