The Blitzkrieg was a type of German warfare that means "lightning war". It was were, as lightning war suggests, the attackers would throw everything they had. Including infantry, air force (Luftwaffe), tanks, mortar's, and anything else they have. A crucial element of blitzkrieg was surprise, so the victims never knew what hit them until it was too late.
