Trying to bypass and cut off the retreating Dutch in the south of their country. The Germans have decided to avoid as many head to head battles as possible. The lower Command&Control rating of the Dutch, resulting in lower mobility, helps here.

Where is the BEF? They have made no effort so far to help their Allies in the Low Countries.

While XIX Korps was successful in crossing the Meuse near Meziers, the bulk of Pzr Grp Kleist has the greatest difficulties to achieve the same at the southern edge of the
map.

Watch out for your supply! 10th and 2nd Panzer have yellow level supply this turn (small yellow box on counter). Since you didn't capture a bridge over the Meuse their supply will be red next turn meaning they are running out. Another turn without supplies and they will be stuck and vulnerable to attack.
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty & well preserved body,
but rather to skid in broadside, totally worn out & proclaiming "WOW, what a ride!"
