This idea was challenged by the poor performance of the relatively light early tank guns against armour and German doctrine of avoiding tank-versus-tank combat This along with Germany's use of combined arms were among the key elements of their highly successful blitzkrieg tactics across Poland and France. Many means of destroying tanks including indirect artillery anti-tank guns (both towed and self-propelled) mines short-ranged infantry antitank weapons and other tanks were used. Even with large-scale mechanisation infantry remained the backbone of all forces and throughout the war most infantry were equipped similarly to World War I the portable machine gun spread a notable example being the German MG34 and various submachine guns which were suited to close combat in urban and jungle settings the assault rifle a late war development incorporating many features of the rifle and submachine gun became the standard postwar infantry weapon for most armed forces. 9 Plano Collin 286,057 6 Diplomatic missions, While technological superiority and cultural factors played an important role in the victories of the conquistadors in the Americas their conquest was greatly facilitated by old world diseases: smallpox chicken pox diphtheria typhus influenza measles malaria and yellow fever the diseases were carried to distant tribes and villages This typical path of disease transmission moved much faster than the conquistadors so that as they advanced resistance weakened.[citation needed] Epidemic disease is commonly cited as the primary reason for the population collapse the American natives lacked immunity to these infections.
