    Blitzkrieg only worked because the Germans had the element of surprise. They were able to break France because the Allies didn’t expect them to go through the Ardennes. They were able to push so deep into the USSR because the Soviets didn’t expect them to attack for another two years at least.

    Had the Allies had the foresight or at least the sense to not leave a big gap in their frontline, the German war machine would’ve ground to a halt before it even got moving.
