The winter and weather wasn't the only thing that helped out the Soviets. The vast size of Russia was something the Germans didn't anticipate. No matter how far the Germans drove into Russia. It just kept going. And with that vast country also came with almost unlimited man power. The Red Army would lose 25,000 men in one battle. There were 75,000 in reserve to take their place. And more Russians were on their way to the front.

The logistics of the Axis invasions forces during Barbarossa has always been mind blowing to me. You've got almost four million soldiers (the equivalent of the entire population of some of today's biggest cities) who took part. In the book "The Court of the Red Tsar" the author lays out that there were also 3,600 tanks, 600,000 motorized vehicles, 7,000 artillery units, 4,500 airplanes and 625,000 horses in the Axis invasion forces too.

Eventually they returned to their new country, formed from the breakup of Austria-Hungary. Would make a great video! Have a great day, love your work! Cheers

One of the mistakes Hitler made was losing his temper and turning north to Stalingrad and Moscow instead of continuing south to the oilfields. That kept Nazi oil supplies coming from Europe using long, poorly defended supply lines, instead of the nearby Soviet oil, weakening the mechanized parts of the army. Things might have gone differently had he not overridden his generals on the matter. Not attacking the forces at Dunkirk. Switching from military targets to population centers in the UK. Not seizing the Soviet oilfields. All Hitler's decisions which his generals opposed, but Hitler pushed through anyway.

Stalingrad was a valid target as taking it would block the Volga river which would cut off soviet oil to the north, starving the soviet war machine. They had already split army group south into two, one going south to the oil fields and one covering their flanks heading for stalingrad. It was not possible for the entire army group to go for the oil fields. However, the result was the the army was stretched and the supplies were too low. Not prioritizing stalingrad supplies though was fatal though. The german army did reach the oil fields. When they arrived they saw it burning. They repaired it eventually and started to transport oil to the north but they had to retreat after stalingrad was retaken. The amount of oil they got was not nearly enough to mount an effective offense. Another note. It was in fact Hitler who always had his mind on the oil fields in caucasus. He understood from the start that this was a war for resources and wanted the main push in barbarossa to be in the south. But some generals strongly disagreed and thought that taking Moscow would make the soviets surrender like France, so as a compromise Hitler presented the massive operation barbarossa with three targets, north center and south. The main reason why Hitler attacked the USSR before he had defeated his enemies was so they could continue waging war. They were running out of oil you see. The reason why they planned to defeat the soviets in just a few months was because that was the only time they had left before they ran out of oil.

@@pyromania1018 Yeah their plan was basically to invade until an arbitrary offensive line in the soviet union and hope that the USSR would surrender by then. However if they would have taken Stalingrad and thus secured the oil fields they would both starve the soviets of oil and get much needed oil themselves, get the planes back up, mount offensives. It is not out of reason that if Stalingrad had been taken Stalin would be open to signing a separate peace, where Germany annexes part of of the union as well as creating some puppet states, perhaps. The USSR were already suffering because of food shortage because Ukraine was taken, a loss of their oil would have been catastrophic. Especially since they relied on the mass production of the excellent T-34. It appears that Hitler knew that the war was over in 1942 while fall blau was ongoing. He talks too Mannerheim and regrets not invading France in 1939. If he did that he could invade the USSR in 1940 when the USSR was weaker and change the world. In his own opinion though as making the USSR surrender was probably near impossible.

Even the later, more heavier tanks, like the Panther and Tiger 1 and Königstiger, had just petrol engines with just 700 hp, wich was far to weak for such heavy tanks.

Germany didn't use diesel engines in their tanks... they were all gasoline powered.

I see people talk about the Mongols and Imperial Germany, but here's the thing: they were not fighting a UNITED Russia. The Mongols, aided by a very efficient supply and movement system (and experience in cold climates), locked horns with a gang of petty, stupid princes who stubbornly refused to unite against a common foe, no matter how bloodthirsty that foe was; Imperial Germany had the good fortune to face a Russia that was in the midst of revolution (which they helped stoke the fires of) AND was horribly backward in, well, EVERYTHING, and pragmatically accepted a (massive) bribe from Lenin rather than risk trying to eat the whole cake. Charles XII and Napoleon faced a united Russia that worshiped its czar like a god, had competent generals, and military allies; Hitler faced a psychotically Motherland-worshipping Soviet Union that had badass generals, allies whom were actually useful to it, an incredibly calculating leader who knew how to be pragmatic (usually), and since he was trying to shove the whole thing in his mouth AND exterminate the entire populace, they had no reason to surrender.
