just take Leningrad immediately but also "zurge rush" (lmao) Stalingrad at the same time. Like yeah okay I'm sure the Nazis (famous for Blitzkrieg not close combat) can handle two of the most intense urban warfare battles at once hundreds of kilometers apart without getting their ass owned.
taking Stalingrad wouldn't even cut off the oil either the Soviets had made preparations to ship Caucasian oil across the Caspian Sea to Astrakhan to keep the military fueled. It would have been awfully inefficient logistically but they would have been able to do it.
The Soviets weren't going to let them have the Caucasus oil either. There were comprehensive plans to destroy the oil infrastructure if that area was ever lost.
definitely! Our armchair general up there probably doesn't know that the reason the Nazis didn't "zurge rush" Stalingrad was because they were busy with most of their forces trying to rush the Caucasus oil fields before the Soviets sabotaged them! Stalingrad was a secondary objective until Hitler became desperate for a major symbolic victory that year after the Nazis stalled in the Caucasus mountains.
Know what I'm doing today, and it's watching more Soviet Storm, the Russian eastern front documentary. Really cuts through the BS the west thinks happened there, and guess what? It isn't just slavs fucking around in front of glorious aryans, it's a functional and capable military machine that ends up heroically destroying fascism almost single handedly
Bunch of nazis in a room, foolishly planning to just spend a lot of time not taking Leningrad

Yes, doing Stalingrad but in 1941, that will surely go well.
