After Zhukov counterattacked in Dec., 1941 and after Midway in June, 1942, the ultimate outcome was decided.
Stalin, eventually, learned to listen to his generals, but in early 1942 his meddling cost an awful lot. Hitler (thankfully) never learned the lesson.
Very sadly, General Sherman was right. "War is all hell."
