Though it was thought to be impossible, Germany simply moved their armour and troops through the dense and hilly Ardennes forest in Belgium, attacking the line from behind.

josef Stalin. he did so though, bcause the USSR and Germany had signed a pact not to attack each other but Hitler broke his word(again). this led to him splitting his army into 3 to attack ussr. however, he failed due to 2 reasons.

1 he had a 3 pronged, not a single attack.

2 he was too late. the winter (-70 c) stopped him just like it stopped napoleon in 1800's

it was mainly because of the second reason that he lost the war in the astern front and Stalin ganged up with Britain to defeat Hitler.

historians say that attacking ussr was Hitler's biggest mistake as he had to fight a war on 2 fronts that he cannot cope with and caused Stalin to join the allies
