Napoleon in 1812
Chapter 69
Not a few soldiers were wounded. However, there were enough supplies to maintain the unit’s combat capabilities. André Masséna’s ability was well known to them, but it was only truly a threat when he had enough power. The number of units he was leading was only half of the Wellesley Corps.
Of course, there was a problem with the soldiers’ physical strength because they fought a fierce battle until two hours ago, but it would be the same for Masséna’s troops, who came all the way here at a rapid pace.
‘Claws are powerful only when they’re on two closing jaws. With Napoleon’s operation failing, we can’t afford to fight each other with all our might, can we? It would be better for you and me to compromise and step down.’
Arthur Wellesley murmured so, recalling André Masséna marching toward his corps.
