Overview:

In order to slow down Rommel's panzers, the French command sent its fast mixed cavalry (mechanized and horse) into Belgium. The cavalry's mission was to blow up all the bridges on the Ourthe River. This they successfully did just prior to the panzers arrival. The French then pulled back towards Marche, leaving no units to watch over the river for potential crossings. German pioneers quickly threw pontoon bridges over the river. What the French expected to take days to complete was accomplished unmolested in a handful of hours. German armored cars, tanks, and motorcyclists rushed forward across the pontoon bridges and surprised the French cavalry and infantry.
