If your on about the German 6th Army then, they died because they were trapped in the main city at Stalingrad and Hitler ordered them to fight until the last ma. So they did but the Soviet launched Operation Uranus (19th-23rd November 1942_ and during this Operation, About 257,000 German, Italian and Romanian Soldiers died. Cause of death was mainly from Kia and Starvation.
