The Germans occupy Stalingrad
The German 6th Army and 4th Panzer Army initially were able to hold onto Stalingrad, but in this timeline, the Wehrmacht and its allies were able to push back the Soviet Counter-Offensive, and break through their lines and push further east after replenishment and resupply. -
Hitler's advance into the Caucasus'
Even with the current push into the Caucasus, having Stalingrad under German control would benefit the German push greatly. The Soviet forces in the Caucasus region were mostly cut off, and would be under-supplied, relying on the winter for a break from German advancements. Army Group A would then advance into the region while the Soviets would be unable to support them. -
German pincer movement
Now having Stalingrad occupied and other Soviet oil fields under control, the Blitzkrieg from the southern flank would be expected. Hitler would most likely send the 4th Panzer Army and 6th Army North in order to surround Soviet forces in the middle pocket. Reserves from the Italians, Romanians, and Hungarians would most likely be put in place to plug holes in the frontline -
Battle of Kursk
German forces now reinforced by some units from Army Group South, most likely elements of the German III Panzer Corp or IV Panzer Corp, depending on what was need in order to push North. The Battle of Kursk, with more German Armor and infantry pushing from the South, possibly even creating another front for the battle. The German pincer movement made in order to surround Kursk works, and the push into the Soviet Union would continue. In this timeline the Soviet Counter-Offensive never occurred. -
Treaty of Brest-Litovsk
Due to huge strategic and political wins by the German Military, the Soviets would eventually succumb to the amount of casualties and strategic points they have lost. Having burned destroyed their infrastructure and farms, Soviet ability to combat in the West would fall through, relying on the Urals to provide support, which would take a long time and become target of the Luftwaffe. This treaty would effectively take the USSR out of the war, leaving it to the Allies to combat Germany
