Was Germany defeated in World War II because of the weather?

Hitler wrongly overestimated his own strength. There is no doubt that the German army is well equipped, but it is also restricted by its production capacity. As far as tanks are concerned, the famous German Tiger Leopard No.3 and No.4 produced more than 40,000 vehicles in wartime, while the Soviet T34 tank had a surplus of 45,000 vehicles. The other rammstein is too delicate and the technology is too messy. In the Soviet-German war, many tanks were not replenished in time because of their long front lines, and their maintenance was difficult, which coincided with the dry season.

Rongxing quantity and quality

In terms of quality, the nature of the German campaign in World War II is definitely high, but it is limited to the German regular army, slave countries and allied forces. That is another matter and has little effect. Although the Soviet Union was far inferior to the Germans in quality when fighting revolutionaries at that time, after all, it was fighting at its own doorstep, but it was absolutely superior in number. A German soldier defeated a Soviet soldier and won the victory. What about five and ten years old? A tiger can't catch a pack of wolves.

Capital shortage

Although Germany swept Europe and plundered a lot of capital, it was far less than the Soviet Union's capital stock. Moreover, on the one hand, we must maintain the normal expenses of the occupied areas in Europe, be prepared to avoid the British counterattack, and support the North African battlefield ... If we lose sight of one thing and lose sight of another, the Germans on the Soviet-German battlefield will inevitably encounter material shortages, while the Soviet Union can safely resist the Germans while ensuring that the Japanese troops on the Far East border are not rebuilt.

Of course, the harsh environment did bring a lot of trouble to the Germans. Not only is there no winter clothes, but some German equipment can't be used because of the cold weather, which greatly reduces the German combat capability.

After all, the Soviet Union successfully stopped the Germans at the right time and place, and the failure of Soviet aggression immediately aggravated Hitler's Nazi Party's demise.
