I hated it. Amateurish, lazy and a waste of time. It is clear that you are a picker of history. How much TIME have you spent on the great man's life, or is it just another 20 minutes that gets in the way of you playing the fantasy computer games? Blocked your channel. Won't ever see you again. I'll keep searching for your video on the social and economic reforms that Napoleon carried out in France. Free education for every child between 6 and 11 years old, free hospital treatment, free housing for old people, free housing for injured veterans, pensions for all injured and survivor veterans, fresh water in all the cities, semaphore connecting the Manche with the Mediterranean, more and bigger canals to increase trade, changes to agriculture to produce more food for the citizens, more roads and rest houses for travellers. Then the big one, The Code Napoleon, that condensed 100's of local laws into one national Coda. People, like you, never do that type of the history you claim to love.

Borodino would've been won easily have Napoleon arrived with the full force of his original Army of over 500,000 men but by the time he got to Borodino the Army was down to under 200 K due to desertion and sickness . none the less, He should've headed back to France after Borodino while it was still warm season. He got what he wanted at Borodino and that was to demoralize the Russian army and Tzar !!! There was no reason to March all the way to Moscow and get caught in the brutal winter. Biggest military blunder in history !

[@robruss62]

He also didn't commit the Old Guard, which would have made it a bigger victory

[@raymondrocco8607]

I agree 100 %

[@safedreams6241]

Hitler did the same mistake😅

[@robruss62]

@@safedreams6241 yes, fortunately for the allies he halted the drive on Moscow to reinforce the southern offensive, and like Napoleon he invaded late (all other mistakes aside, Hitler was a week late in getting to Moscow). And his foolish decision to occupy rather than bypass Stalingrad was even more disastrous, almost as bad as delaying Manstein's attack at Kursk two months, and giving the Russians time to recover from the reverse Stalingrad at Kharkov. Where Hitler botched his invasion the most however was when local populations welcomed the Germans as liberators against the mass murdering Soviets and he ordered many of then rounded up as slave labor, or in some cases killed. Like Cortez he literally had the chance to recruit from the population of the country he was invading. He recruited a couple of SS divisions, and some even bigger sociopaths who volunteered for execution squads, but by and large he rapidly alienated the locals, and groups like the partisans and the Ukrainian Provisional Army (which was also fighting the Soviets) joined the fight against him. Thankfully for the allies, his fanaticism undercut his military strategy. A key difference from Hitler was that Napoleon, for all of his political ruthlessness, did not have inherently genocidal aims to "cleanse" (eliminate) entire populations. His harsh tactics in Spain even paled in comparison to the death camps or the scale of mass shootings such as Bobiar.

[@TheColombiano89]

The Grand Armee was split into multiple Corps. Not a massive blob of 500k but units spread all over a massive front. His mistake may have been not committing the Imperial Guard

Omg, that was spectacular! Thank you so much for filling my request for the Battle of Borodino! You've done a brilliant job. Amazing work. That must be your best battle vid yet, in my opinion. You captured the brutality really well 👏 Some brilliant details as well, my fav was the excellent (and deadly) field of fire enjoyed by the 19 x 12-pounder cannons of the Great Redoubt, protecting the Russian centre. Those cannon were the perfect foil for Napoleon's frontal assault tactics of that horrible day. None of the brilliance of Napoleon's masterpiece, Austerlitz, was seen at Borodino. Many of Napoleon's later battles were slugging matches, artillery duels and frontal infantry assaults. As promised, it'll be my pleasure to remain a Legend member of your channel until Christmas. Then I'll bump down a tier - unless I decide otherwise, of course. Thanks again for an amazing job! I've just finished work, so I'll have a better viewing when I get home. Cheers, mate 👍

Combats effroyables ! Les soldats n'étaient que de la chair à canon... Napoléon, lorsqu'il était en position de force, aurait dû utiliser davantage la diplomatie, se rapprocher des Autrichiens et des Russes et leur faire comprendre que leur ennemi commun était la Grande Bretagne... Mais Napoléon était trop sûr de sa force militaire, trop ambitieux et trop orgueilleux pour s'abaisser à négocier et à privilégier le long terme, plutôt que des victoires immédiates, prestigieuses, mais sanglantes et onéreuses. Pour moi, il a su être un stratège militaire, mais pas un stratège politique...

Then, slowly, you'll approach a more intellectual french... If this may encourage you, you have to know that a lot of words are similar or very close in french and english (thanks to Guillaume le Conquérant and later to the house of Plantagenêt) . Besides, more than two hundred million people speak french in the world... It's not so bad! Salutations de France.

Julgustus kartmatuks Kristuse tunnistamiseks 6 Sel põhjusel tuletan ma sulle meelde, et sa taas õhutaksid lõkkele Jumala ande, mis on sinus minu käte pealepanemise kaudu. 7 Jumal ei ole meile ju andnud arguse vaimu, vaid väe ja armastuse ja mõistlikkuse vaimu. 8 Ära siis häbene tunnistamast meie Issandat ega mind, tema vangi, vaid kannata koos minuga kurja evangeeliumi pärast Jumala väe abil, 9 kes on meid päästnud ja kutsunud püha kutsega, mitte meie tegude järgi, vaid omaenese kavatsuse ja armu järgi, mis meile on antud Kristuses Jeesuses enne igavesi aegu, 10 nüüd on aga saanud avalikuks meie Päästja Kristuse Jeesuse ilmumise läbi, kes on kõrvaldanud surma ning on evangeeliumi kaudu toonud valge ette elu ja kadumatuse, 11 mille kuulutajaks ja apostliks ning õpetajaks mind on seatud. 12 Sel põhjusel ma ka kannatan. Ent ma ei häbene, sest ma tean, kellesse ma olen uskuma hakanud ja olen veendunud, et tema on vägev hoidma minu hoolde usaldatut oma päevani. 13 Võta terve õpetuse eeskujuks see, mida sa minult oled kuulnud usus ja armastuses, mis on Kristuses Jeesuses! 14 Seda head, mis su hoolde on usaldatud, hoia Püha Vaimu abil, kes meis elab. 15 Sa tead seda, et mulle on pööranud selja kõik, kes on Aasias, nende seas Fügelos ja Hermogenes. 16 Issand andku halastust Onesiforose kodule, sest tema on mind sagedasti kosutanud ega ole häbenenud mu ahelaid, 17 vaid kui ta juhtus Rooma, otsis ta mind hoolega ning leidis üles. 18 Issand andku talle leida halastust Issanda käest oma päeval! Ja kui palju ta on abistanud mind Efesoses, tead sina kõige paremini. 2Kuula Julgustus kartmatuks Kristuse tunnistamiseks 1 Sina siis, mu poeg, saa vägevaks armus, mis on Kristuses Jeesuses! 2 Ja mida sa minult oled kuulnud paljude tunnistajate kuuldes, see anna ustavate inimeste hoolde, kes edaspidi sobivad õpetama ka teisi. 3 Kannata koos minuga kurja nagu Kristuse Jeesuse tubli sõdur! 4 Ükski, kes on sõjateenistuses, ei seo end argielu askeldustega, kui ta tahab jääda meelepäraseks sellele, kes ta on sõduriks kutsunud. 5 Ja kui keegi võistleb, ei saa ta ometi võidupärga, kui ta ei võistle korrakohaselt. 6 Tööd rügav põllumees peab esimesena saama osa viljast. 7 Mõtle sellele, mis ma ütlen! Küll Issand annab sulle arusaamist kõiges. 8 Olgu sul meeles Jeesus Kristus, kes on üles äratatud surnuist, kes põlvneb Taaveti soost! See on evangeelium, 9 mille pärast ma kannatan kurja ja olen koguni ahelates nagu mõni roimar. Kuid Jumala sõna ei ole ahelais. 10 Seetõttu ma talun kõike äravalitute pärast, et ka nemad saaksid pääste Kristuses Jeesuses igavese kirkusega. 11 Ustav on see sõna: Kui me oleme surnud koos temaga, siis ka elame koos temaga, 12 kui me jääme püsima vaevas, siis valitseme koos kuningatena, kui me tema salgame, siis salgab ka tema meid, 13 kui me oleme uskmatud, jääb tema ometi ustavaks, sest ta ei saa ennast salata. Õhutus olla kõlblik töötegija Jumalale 14 Seda tuleta neile meelde, vannutades Jumala ees, et nad ei peaks sõnasõda - sellest pole mingit kasu, see vaid hukutab kuulajad. 15 Püüa hoolega osutuda Jumala ees kõlblikuks töötegijana, kel pole tarvis häbeneda, kes tõe sõna kuulutab õigesti. 16 Labastest tühijuttudest hoidu aga eemale! Nende rääkijad ju lähevad aina kaugemale jumalakartmatuses 17 ja nende sõna levib otsekui vähktõbi. Nende seast on Hümenaios ja Fileetos, 18 kes on kaldunud kõrvale tõest, öeldes, et ülestõusmine on juba toimunud, ning rikuvad ära mõnede usu. 19 Ometi püsib kindlana Jumala seatud aluskivi, millel on see pitser: „Issand tunneb omi” ja „Ülekohtust taganegu igaüks, kes nimetab Issanda nime”. 20 Aga suures majas ei ole üksnes kuld- ja hõbeastjaid, vaid neid on ka puust ja savist - osa auliseks, osa autuks tarbeks. 21 Kui nüüd keegi end puhastab neist vigadest, siis ta saab auliseks astjaks, pühitsetuks ja peremehele kasulikuks, valmiks igale heale teole. 22 Põgene noorusea himude eest! Taotle õiglust, usku, armastust ja rahu nendega, kes Issandat appi hüüavad puhtast südamest! 23 Aga sõgedad ja kasvatamatud arutlemised lükka tagasi, teades, et need tekitavad tülisid. 24 Issanda sulasel ei ole tarvis tülitseda, vaid ta olgu lahke kõikide vastu, osav õpetama, valmis kannatama kurja, 25 kes tasadusega kasvatab vastupanijaid selleks, et ehk Jumal annab neile meeleparandust tõe mõistmiseks, 26 ja et nad kaineneksid ja pääseksid lahti kuradi paelust, mis on püüdnud nad oma tahtmise valda.

[@martyn8116]

Great point. Back then, officers literally led from the front, and they were slaughtered in great numbers. Even Generals were known to take part in, or personally lead, some of the great cavalry charges of the era. The loss of so many officers at Borodino caused the battlefield to be even more chaotic. It was said you couldn't hear musket fire on the battlefield as it was drowned out by cannon fire. 500-600 cannons on each side was one of the reasons for the appalling death toll.

[@chestersleezer8821]

@@martyn8116 So true since whole Infantry Battalions and Cavalry Regiments basically cease to exist after this Battle. But while history tries to get you to believe that "General Winter" destroyed Napoleon's Army there are many different factors that led to the disaster of 1812; first Napoleon had around 34,000 Austrians in his Army who operating with the Saxons were on the Southern front and they went over to the Russian side and later captured quite a few Saxon afterwards. That was around 50,000 troops gone and there was also a Northern front of around 100,000 troops. But the biggest killer was Typhus and not the cold of winter. Typhus ran through his troops during the summer after he invaded.

[@martyn8116]

@chestersleezer8821 I didn't know about the sneaky Austrians. I recall over 200 line regiments of the Grand Armee, many seasoned units, were all but wiped out. I've always wondered how Waterloo, the following year, might have been different with all those crack soldiers on the field, rather than buried in Russia. Speaking of chaos in the battlefield, Wellington in Spain always moaned about his aristocratic calvalry regiments, especially the heavies, for some reason, were a law unto themselves, and only charged when they felt like it! Haha.

this looks so realistic until you notice every soldier has the same face. but yeah the numbers of soldiers involved would look like this. too bad we don't have as many napoleonic war reenactors as we do us civil war or ww2.

The morale of story; Never enter deep into enemy territory with only 3 weeks ration. Never dream of easy and quick victory against Russia. Never conquered Moscow without secured access to nearby territory with supplies, garrison, and leave no room for the enemy to flank. In short, Advance slowly with full stomach, and prepare for battle of attrition. Play safe.

The russians never gave up, it was september, and Napoleon entered Moscow after the victory in Barodino. Leaving in october - to lose almost everything in this winter retreat, yet saving his life - to be poisoned in st Helena. Lets compare with Hitler, who on december 1941 had not reached Moscow¹¹ and will never do.

During his disastrous Moscow adventure, 92% of Napoleon's men died from Typhus, contracted from Rat Fleas in Poland, not from contact with enemy fire.

[@vadimpm1290]

Otto, it's the first time I've heard of such a wonderful discovery. Though it would be better to explain why 35 000 French, healthy in the morning died from Typhus in the duration of one day at Borodino alone. And soon the same had happened with 8 000 of them at Little Yaroslavets.

Napoleon successfully defeated the Russians in battle multiple times. Alexander refused to offer peace terms. That was the problem. The Russians have had their asses handed to them multiple times. Examples include Britain, France, Poland, Sweden, Germany and the Mongols. Defeating the Russians in war has never been particularly difficult. Conquering Russia has been.
