In holland, luckily, there is many series of waterways, and Holland troops managed to delay the severity of the attack slightly by naval crafts amongst the waterways. Unfortunately they where only able to delay it for a short amount of time before being completely overpowered by paratroopers and other forms of blitzkrieg. The airfield at Waalhaven was German's central focus for attacking, once it had been completely conquered by the Germans the Dutch took their attempt at battle. They destroyed many German planes, but not enough.
