Genuinely just curious as to what people think would have happened had he retained power or had his coup against Kruschev been successful

    He defeated a full-scale Japanese invasion in 1939. It's forgotten today, but he was at Nomonhan, having barely escaped the purges with his life. Without him, the Japanese would have probably gotten all the way to Lake Baikal and there would have been no Pearl Harbor.

    Zhukov repeated his tactic at Stalingrad and it worked equally well.
