Answer:

Lightning War

Step-by-step explanation:

Blitzkrieg is German for Lightning War. It was used early in World War 2 by both Germany and Japan even though the famous one is Germany. Germany relied on bombing and tanks to enter before infantry so the infantry dealt with the enemy swiftly. The spearhead of the Blitzkrieg appeared out of the Ardennes in 1940 during the German invasion of France. Blitzkrieg was used from September 1st 1939 - 1943 when Germany was forced into a defensive war as it fought on two different fronts.
