The Germans use Blitzkrieg attacks on Poland, Belgium, The Netherlands, France, Norway, Yugoslavia and Greece. They also conquered Denmark, but in a single day, apparently by political terms. The USSR (Russia, the Baltic states, East Poland, Ukraine and Belorussia) was also victim of the blitzkrieg tactic, having an outstanding success at first, but was halted by the numerous Russian forces near Moscow.

"Germany successfully used the Blitzkrieg tactic against Poland (attacked in September 1939), Denmark (April 1940), Norway (April 1940), Belgium (May 1940), the Netherlands (May 1940), Luxembourg (May 1940), France (May 1940), Yugoslavia (April 1941), and Greece (April 1941)."
