Napoleon: Speed Of His Troop Movements #shorts
#napoleon

👉 Napoleon I, Emperor of France, is regarded as one of the greatest military commanders in history.

One of Napoleon's most significant advantages was the speed with which his troops moved. Napoleon insisted on lightning-fast marches, movements, and attacks for his army.

From the division of his army into independent corps systems to the avoidance of slow-moving, lengthy supply lines, many factors contributed to Napoleon's ability to perform these flexible movements.

Instead, Napoleon's army sought to survive on the land, adopting the motto "The war must feed the war." Napoleon sought to obtain food from his surroundings, whether by paying friendly countries or simply foraging.

These factors, combined with Napoleon's natural ability to persuade and inspire his troops, resulted in a string of dominating victories.
