At the end of World War II, Germany was obviously unable to support itself, and defeat was a matter of time, and it was not expected that Hitler still planned to resist to the end, and he led his troops to lay out a defensive line, intending to build Germany into a strong fortress. Who would have thought that the German defense line was broken through so quickly, they suffered a double-sided attack, the eastern front was mainly the Soviet army, they drove straight in, swept away many German troops in the surrounding area, successfully invaded Berlin, the Allies after the counter-offensive, also quickly gained the advantage of the battlefield, but their pace was a little later, the Soviet Union preemptively occupied Berlin, and finally ended this criminal war.
What was the scene after the fall of Berlin, Germany, after World War II? The Soviet army and the British and the United States made a judgment!
Since the Soviet Union was hit hard by Germany, the two sides engaged in a long-term tug-of-war on the Soviet mainland, which brought a heavy blow to the Soviet side, so after the counter-offensive, the Soviet army began a frenzied retaliation in Germany. After entering Berlin, the discipline of the Soviet army was even worse, they plundered, raped women, killed countless German civilians, and these atrocities committed by the German army in the Soviet Union were returned to the Germans by the Soviet Union. Since Germany had already surrendered, they did not have the strength to continue to confront the Soviet Union, and the Allies had only entered Berlin later, and they would certainly be dissatisfied with the Soviet Union's approach.
In fact, the Allies are not much better, like Britain and France, these countries have been hit by the German army, their losses are also quite large, and Germany's geographical location on the European continent is quite critical, occupying here, you can get a greater opportunity, but at that time the needs of the war, they had to share the results with the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union entered Berlin in advance, the threat to the Allies was even greater. Then after the Allies entered Berlin, their approach was not very good, in fact, the biggest problem of the Allies was that they were late, and when they went, the Soviet Union had basically controlled Berlin.
The space left for the Allies was much smaller, and they didn't have much to grab, of course, the two sides had clear rules before, if the Soviet Union did not focus on the offensive, there was no way to end the war so quickly, relying on the strength of the Allies alone, it was difficult to confront the powerful German army.
Therefore, many Western countries are still very grateful to the Soviet Union, and they are equivalent to playing the role of liberators, so the concessions that the Allies should make must be done well, otherwise the two sides have just finished fighting, and if there is a conflict again, it will cause the two sides to be seriously damaged, and no one wants to have any more war, so the two sides have already divided the distribution of interests more obviously before entering Berlin.
The Allies could only operate in their own fixed areas, and relatively speaking, the Allies also wanted to maintain their own image. Over the years, we look at some of the history of World War II, we can find a lot of atrocities, are described in response to the Soviet Union, as if the Soviet army in the war is the devil, the Allies seem to represent justice, in fact, both sides are not much better, but the Western media is very good at propaganda, the Soviet Union in the post-war is also relatively closed, the confrontation between the two sides, let the Soviet Union be seriously smeared, which makes many people misunderstand the Soviet Union.
In any case, the Soviet Union was the most effective side in this war, but they were also the most limited in profit, the Soviet Union greatly expanded its territory, controlled a lot of areas, but they were still smeared by the Allies, although the Allies restrained their anger and did not plunder Berlin, but they benefited greatly.
People like Patton occupied a lot of resource points, which provided great help for the development of the Allied forces. Of course, when we look at the siege of Berlin, when the Soviet Union was gathering troops to prepare for the general offensive, only a small part of the Allied army reached the designated position, and such a gap was unacceptable, and the Allied army fought relatively hard.
Their preparations for the war were not good enough, so the Allies were passive in Berlin, and they had to use some German personnel to help them better control the occupation. If the Allies had entered Berlin in advance, they would not have been much better in Berlin, and it is estimated that they would have burned and plundered everywhere, and no matter which side they had a great hatred for Germany, they would not have let Germany go, who called Germany a disaster for so many countries.
