December 2, 1805

삼제회전(三帝會戰)이라고도 한다. 아우스터리츠는 현재의 슬로바키아의 슬라프코프이다. 이해 초에 영국 ·오스트리아 ·러시아는 제3회 대(對)프랑스동맹을 결성하고, 10월에는 트라팔가르해전에서 승리를 거둠으로써 나폴레옹의 영국 상륙의 야망을 저지하였다. 그 결과 나폴레옹은 대륙정책에 전념하지 않을 수 없게 되어 독일로 진출, 빈을 점령하였다. 오스트리아 황제 프란츠 1세는 북으로 달아나 아우스터리츠 부근에서 러시아 황제 알렉산드르 1세와 합류, 8만 명이 넘는 동맹군을 조직하여 7만 명의 나폴레옹군과 대치했다. 나폴레옹은 동맹군의 중앙을 돌파하여 대승을 거두었다. 전사자(戰死者) 2만 명을 낸 러시아는 폴란드로 물러나고, 오스트리아가 휴전을 요청하여 프레스부르크화약을 맺음으로써 제3회 대프랑스동맹은 붕괴되었다. 이 전투는 세계 최초의 근대적 대야전(大野戰)으로 나폴레옹의 전성기를 상기시키는 전투이다.

The battle is innacurate, but Kutuzov's assessment was somewhat correct. He knew Napoleon would trick him into the fog.

[Hawktotalwar]

Remember Napoleon actually gave the high ground to the Austrian and Russians, so to let them feel they are in control. Is a genius play already, to get the opponent into combat when their strategy is not to give combat.

Kutuzov was the only man at that battle that wasn't consumed by vanity. It's a miracle that Russia survived Napoleon's 1812 invasion, because Emperor Alexander was a man obsessed with standing against Napoleon, a man he could never equal.

[dhgtjji]

The actor who plays Napoleon is more like Marshal Bernadotte than Napoleon.

[vismundo]

The way Kutuzov says "Madness" is just brilliant

[weeaboomanotakutsuki]

Hidden units my lord! Treacherously meant to ambush us!

[AAAN]

It’s one of the masterpieces battles where military tactics and strategy have been implemented successfully.
Consider just the effort that Napoleone endure just to lure the Russians and Austrians to go to the battle!

He was one of a kind!!
I don’t blame Clausewitz when he described Napoléon as the god of war!!

[TheLogicBeast]

Kutusov's reaction was exaggerated by Tolstoy. Yeah, he warned that Napoleon could turn his line, but he knew nothing of the hidden troops or even those marching up on his left flank. He was just a cautious, defensive general.

Never do what the enemy wants you to do, for the simple reason that he wants you to do it.

I thought Austerlitz was fought in the snow lol, not in the summer...

[Mjak-ydog]

This can not be the Battle of Austerlitz. This battle took place on December 2, 1805. There was frost, fog, the grass was dry and brown, there were no leaves on the trees. And in this film you can see that it is the middle of summer.

It's crazy to see Logan's ancestors scouting out Austerlitz for a good Connor ranch location.

[choysakanto]

Alexander is still young and naive, that it took this defeat which he by the way caused to learn a lesson and have Kutuzov reinstated as the C-in-C of the Russian army when Nappy invaded Russia almost 7 years later.

[kaisergaming]

Imagine being at that battle and seeing this 3:16

[samsmith]

Kutuzov, my hat to you for your service to your people, and your honesty even in the face of emperors.

Russians and Brits used to get along surprisingly well for a two old rivals than it comes to defeating a rising new power in Europe (3 major conflicts - 3 alliances).
