Reasons for Germany's defeat in World War II

There are many reasons for the failure of World War II. On the one hand, the Germans fought bravely on the western front at first! Invincible, the most prominent example is Rommel's Seventh Armored Division, which broke into the Atlantic coast of France from the German-French border in just a few weeks. The French army was caught off guard, which is also an important reason why Rommel later won Hitler's trust! But in the end, the British and French allied forces were forced to rush to Dunkirk, cornered and besieged! There were 300 thousand people, and then Goering came out to "make trouble" and insisted on showing Hitler the bravery of the German Air Force. Finally, the famous "Dunkirk" retreat was successfully implemented under such circumstances! As a result, the British and French Coalition forces saved their strength! On the other hand, it is unwise for the German Air Force to attack Britain! Hitler could have chosen the submarine of the German Navy to blockade Britain and make it a dead island. Then it's not too late to save your strength and fight the Soviet Union! However, everyone knows what happened later. The British Air Force won the final victory of the "British Air War"! The german air force suffered serious losses! There is also the "Normandy" landing, Germany first lost the strategic initiative, leading to the ultimate failure of the entire "war plan"! Germany underestimated Britain's military strength and attacked the Soviet Union. Germany believes that after Britain was driven out of the European continent, it can no longer obstruct its plan to unify the European continent. However, this is not the case. From the beginning of the war, the Royal Navy firmly held the exit of the North Sea, making it impossible for German surface ships to pass through jutland, and the Royal Air Force also defeated the Nazi Air Force over the Strait. Imagine that the Germans rushed to attack the Soviet Union at this time. If Germany had not invaded the Soviet Union, there would have been no Soviet-American-British alliance, and Germany would not have lost so many people and equipment on the Eastern Front. If the 1094 division on the eastern front was transferred to the western front, or Italy and North Africa, the pattern of war would have changed fundamentally. It is difficult for even the United States to confront such a powerful opponent. \ n \ n \ In World War II, it swept all over Europe. There are many reasons for the failure of Nazi Germany, but one of the most important reasons is the decision-making mistakes of its leaders on some major issues. \ n \ nI based on various materials, book references and discussions among military fans, summed up ten wrong choices of Nazi Germany ... Because of the Balkan campaign, Germany delayed its valuable attack on Russia for about five weeks. Most people who participated in the discussion and I agreed that this was one of Germany's most fatal mistakes in World War II. \ n \ n \ two. Hitler's stubborn insistence on not giving up an inch of land was also considered a fatal mistake. Although this move saved Germany's nearly collapsed Eastern Front in Moscow, the disaster it brought to the Germans during the whole war was far more devastating than its positive significance. \ n \ n \ Three trees. Hitler stopped the armored forces in Dunkirk and actually let 300,000 British expeditionary forces go, giving Britain the strength to continue fighting, thus changing the whole process of World War II. This is an unforgivable mistake. \n\n Four. Serious mistakes were made in secrecy and espionage, and the German code was deciphered by the allied forces, but it was unknown for a long time, which led to Germany being beaten everywhere on the battlefield and losing ground. For example, the disaster brought to Germany by Soviet spy sorge is incalculable. \ n \ n \ five. The western front didn't open until June 1944, but Hitler reserved too many troops for a nonexistent western front, especially as early as June 194 1 with 500,000 people. If these troops can be transferred to the Soviet front, June 194 1 will be 65438+February. \n\n \ nSix。 The Third Reich had a little abnormal Jewish policy, which made Germany lose its popularity in the European continent and even the whole world and increased many unnecessary enemies. \ n \ n \ seven o'clock. If Germany does not wage war against the Soviet Union, it may not lose its hegemony in Europe. "Russia is a country that will never attack!" "\n\n \ psst. What would World War II be like if Germany allied itself with the United States instead of Japan and Italy, which are underdeveloped in economy, military affairs and science and technology? Alliances with Japan and Italy are absolutely wrong. \ n \ n \ line. 1942, Germany regained the initiative in the Soviet-German war after launching the southern offensive. However, in Stalingrad, they drained their blood for a city that has actually become a ruin, for a city that has no military and economic value at all, and for the political interests of nihilism, using tactics that they are not familiar with. And after the failure, he refused to accept the facts, resulting in the collapse of 330,000 people. \n\n \ nStalingrad's mistakes include strategic mistakes such as attacking Stalingrad and Caucasus at the beginning of the campaign. \n\n Ten. When the Third Reich was completely at a disadvantage and the conditions were not mature, it was considered as Germany's tenth mistake in World War II to launch the "fortress" campaign wrongly to speed up its own death and judge the landing place of the allied forces in Calais numbly and stupidly, but missed the last chance to drive the allied forces out of the Normandy sea and avoid the fighting between the two fronts. \nA4, or V2, is a series A long-range rocket developed by a team led by German rocket expert Werner von Braun in the Baltic port of Penemende. It is the first practical ballistic missile in the world. "V" comes from German Vergeltung, which means revenge, meaning that the Nazis expressed their intention of revenge after being bombed by the allied forces. V 1 and V2 show that these two models are only the pioneers of the whole series of terrorist weapons. \n\nV2 is long 1 3.5m, with a total launch weight of13t, which can deliver a warhead weighing1ton to a distance of 322km. The rocket is propelled by a liquid rocket engine, and the combustion working fluids are liquid oxygen and methanol. When the rocket is launched, it rises vertically to a height of 24-29 kilometers, and then rises at an inclination angle of 40 degrees under the action of the nozzle gas rudder according to the control of the gyro on the missile. It can also be controlled by the ground control station sending radio instructions to the receiver on the missile. A minute later, the rocket has reached an altitude of 48 kilometers and the speed has reached 5796 kilometers per hour. At this time, the radio command control system ordered the engine to be turned off, and the rocket continued to rise to the height of 97 kilometers by inertia, and then freely fell along the parabola at a speed of about 3542 kilometers per hour, hitting the target. Due to the limited accuracy of the guidance system at that time, the error was large. \n\n 1943 At the beginning of this year, according to the intelligence of allied intelligence personnel, the Allies discovered this plan, which was confirmed by Penemende's aerial reconnaissance. 1943, 17 On the night of August, the Royal Air Force carried out a famous large-scale air raid on Penemende, which destroyed the ground facilities of V2. In order to prevent the disaster from happening again on August 17, 2007, the Nazis moved the V2 factory to a cave factory in the mountains of Germany, delaying the expected rocket offensive. \ n \ n1944 June 13 (six days after Normandy landed), V 1 began to attack London, and the first V2 landed in London in September. Rocket attacks have caused serious civilian casualties and property losses. If a concentrated attack had been carried out on the assembly area of the landing troops instead of London six months ago, that is, as General Eisenhower said, the Allies would have encountered insurmountable difficulties. The attacks on London were all carried out at 7: 00 a.m., 12- 2: 00 p.m. and 6: 00 p.m. in an attempt to scare off the morale of the British people. However, this new terror, after the air raid of 1940, is nothing to the British people when the total victory is so close. British soldiers on the front line of Normandy did their best to advance to the rocket launch site that threatened their families as quickly as possible. In addition to firing at London, the Nazis also launched a large-scale missile attack on the port of Antwerp after the allied forces occupied it on September 4. \n\nV2 * * produces more than 10000 pieces, which is used to launch about 5000 pieces in actual combat. 1945 On the eve of Germany's surrender, Braun and more than 400 rocket experts surrendered to the US military and later came to the United States to become one of the founders of American rocket technology and space technology. The Soviet Union also seized a large number of V2 finished products and components, and captured some rocket experts, starting from which it started its own rocket and space program.
