During the 'Phony War', early 1940, The French made a divisional + 'raid' into Germany around the Lorraine sector. It was virtually unopposed and went about 20 KLMS into Germany (Germany was massing on the Belgium border).
Of course the French lost they nerve and withdraw back to the safety of the Maginot line. If they had persisted, or more particularly reinforced success, they would have caused a major disruption the Germans plans.
Through out the Polish campaign and the phony war Germany was extremely vulnerable (Hitler had to continually ?pull rank? on the German High Comd) . They only achieved success by concentration of forces. In Poland they were assisted by Poland?s lack of strategic mobility. In France they were assisted by the French mind numbing defensive attitude and posture.
