German armed force lost about 800, 000 (critically wounded, killed, or simply missing) whereas Russian armed force lost about 4 million (critically wounded, killed, or simply missing) in 1941. Majority of the Russian losses were soldiers that surrendered but then murdered by their Nazi captors or simply starved to death. Many more Russian civilians died in their thousands mostly as collateral damage but some were intentionally massacred (but the mass massacre of civilians didn't start until 1942). But don't worry, Russia got their revenge in 1944-1945. It was a fair but bloody end, but the whole mess was completely unnecessary.
