I suspect we could safely call Guderian's 1939-40 tour of Europe an even larger success couldn't we? Not exactly strung out in a desert country but not really half bad.
The BEF, French, Belgians, Poles, Dutch, Danes, Norwegians, Luxembergers and large swathes of Russia etc. may just have felt their balls being grabbed somewhat? (while those strikes may not all have come directly under his immediate command they certainly all used his techniques of warfare).

Would translation really be required, I think we'd get the gist
