Im in the middle of a project but from what I've learnt the German forces were going to go through Belgium go through France's northern coast and head south to Paris where they'd take control of France. Unfortunately for Germany there original route was blocked and sabotaged forcing the German forces to go another way and directly come into conflict with Frances forces. This led to a large stalemate that lasted for the majority of the war and German forces were eventually pushed back from the western front. This lack of speed was Germany's downfall and is why Hitler was successful in taking France in WW2 with Blitzkrieg or 'lightning war' which had all the western German forces take France in only a month. So that's why Germany lost, because of diversions and being slow.
