After World War II, the Allies did a standard "Wechsler Adult Intelligence Check" on german prisoners in custody, and from the test results, the Nazi leaders were a group of extremely intelligent people, with extremely high IQs, and were not crazy or crazy.
(The above are the test results and rankings)
Hitler, who managed to control this group, was most likely the most intelligent of them.
But it is puzzling that Hitler's IQ performance was judged by two people before and after World War II.
Before World War II, Hitler's performance was a genius that was rare in a century.
Hitler had no political experience, but he developed the Nazi Party from a small party of fewer than 100 people to the ruling party in Germany.
Hitler had no experience in economic management, but after Hitler took over Germany, Germany's economic power was quickly restored and it re-emerged as a world-class power.
Hitler did not go to military school for a day, but Hitler was extremely sensitive to smell in the military, and in the early days of World War II, Hitler was able to boldly accept Guderian's suggestion, concentrate the armored troops and invent "blitzkrieg"
In the Battle of France, he accepted Manstein's advice and attacked the Ardennes Forest in 45 days from the inaccessible Ardennes Forest.
Before the Battle of Dunkirk, Hitler had the help of God, under his leadership Germany was invincible, and the German army was invincible and swept through Europe
But after Dunkirk, Hitler repeatedly made tactical mistakes.
Listed below:
a. During the Battle of France, when the Goodri ArmorEd Corps was at a critical time when Dunkirk would completely annihilate the British Expeditionary Force and the French army, Hitler suddenly ordered the German army to stop advancing, resulting in a successful retreat of the British and French troops.
b. In the Great Britain Air Battle, the strategic target of annihilating the living forces of the British Air Force was abandoned, and instead bombed civilian targets, losing the only chance to completely defeat Britain.
c. In the absence of Germany's complete defeat of Britain across the English Channel, it turned to the Barbarossa Plan, attacking the Soviet Union with a great strategic depth and extremely strong strategic resources, repeating the mistakes of Germany's two-sided operation in World War I.
C, after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, first declared war on the United States, completely pulling the United States into World War II, since then Germany has a powerful enemy, and since then Germany has lost its only chance to defeat the Anglo-Soviet alliance or peaceful peace.
Before Dunkirk, Hitler had the help of God, and every decision was extremely correct, leading Germany from one victory to another.
After Dunkirk, Hitler repeatedly made major mistakes, causing Germany to lose the opportunity to win again and again, and thus ultimately failed.
Is this because Hitler's IQ was high and low in World War II?
In fact, Hitler should be a tactical person, not a strategic one.
The strategic goals of a true strategist are limited, not infinite.
If Hitler had been a true strategist like Bismarck, he would not have pursued unlimited strategic goals.
Implementing tactics will not attempt to unify Europe in a short period of time and launch a Polish campaign, but to digest the fruits that have been swallowed, stabilize the Soviet-German alliance, develop the economy for another ten years, and then fight a decisive battle with Britain, France and the United States, then the outcome of World War II may be different.
