      He lost his army twice, in Egypt and Russia, and he had to fled back to Paris like a thief on incognito not like a triunfant general.
      Also lost 200.000 men in Iberian peninsula, thats like a 3st army lost.
      Finally he lost his campaigns and his crown, he lost his empire..
      Thats the best general the world ever seen? Thats the god of war?
      The god of war dont abandon his army on defeat, the god of war dosnt know about defeat.

      @@plusultra4961 Well, first of all sorry to disappoint you but Cesar was defeated, in Gergovie for example. Moreover Napoleon won more battle than all those generals together!!! He is the most victorious general ever. If a guy like Ckausewitz who studied war and fought call Napoleon the "god of war" I think his opinion is quite valuable. Anyway in Egypt in didn't abandonned his army in defeat, he was almost trapped because he had no more ships but not defeat at all and gave the command to Kleber because he heard about situation in FRance and knew he must go back to pursue his "destiny".
      In Russia, he finally go back to FRance not like "a thief" but because there was a menace of putsch in Paris: we can criticize that (even if it'w more simple in front of your computer) but we must be honest. By the Way Napoelon often face death on the battlefield, it was the reason the soldiers promoted him as corporal to symbolise his courage after Lodi. In 1814 in the campaign of FRance, he was still pointing some canons himself in the middle of combats.

      He attacked even hes allies forming against him the biggest coalitions ever seen till that day. He was a traitor, and he paid it, thats not a good quality for the best general ever.
      With 30 years, Alexander had already defeat all of his enemies and had a bigger empire than Napoleon. He died like a triunfant semi-god.

      Napoleon would make a battle plan and strategy and then give "enemy army" to each of his Marshals and ask them to make a strategy and battle plans to beat him. Eventually after they all present strategy to beat him he would improve his plans to what made most sense to him. He had amazing generals on his side and used mental capacity of all of them. Ofc it was his genius to make a judgement and put it all together but he had good help as well. Lot of desk work and meetings, scouting, information analization. He didn't sleep much so he was able to go trough a lot on day to day basis.

    Thanks for making a whole video about it ! Most people just pass it to reach Essling directly. Wich is not really smart, because the tactics were very interesting. Napoleon was said to consider this five days campaign as one of his best achievement.
    On a side note, where I live, in Brittany, there's a famous lighthouse called the "Phare d'Eckmühl". It was largely financed by Davout's daughter, who was princess of Eckmül due to the battle. Because of this, the name is known around here, and it even became the name of an important location in a famous French comics.

    It is amazing how at his height Napoleon was one of the most innovative commanders in military history. He never attacked the same location in a line twice and always did the unexpected. Then, with his decline in 1812, Napoleon highlighted the greatest issue of perpetual warfare; that it not only is a terrible drain on resources, but that momentum cannot be kept up and that the aggressor could be destroyed by the more patient adversary.

    The pinnacle of gentlemanly warfare, the Napoleonic Era is to me one of the most interesting periods of our history. Perhaps you could do a show or two on the minor campaigns of 1815? The focus at that time (1815) was on Quartre bras, Lingy and Waterloo. However Russia, Austria and some of the minor German states also fielded armies against the French as they invaded the empire. Of these other armies the ones engaged in the largest campaigns and saw the most fighting were two Austrian armies: The Army of the Upper Rhine and the Army of Italy. Maybe that is worth a look. Perhaps the Six Days campaign? There are still so many more stories to tell, and this is one of the best channels to watch battle reviews. You guys rock, keep up the good work.

    Napoleon's Foreign Minister got rich selling out France and Napoleon to their enemies and Napoleon called him S* in a silk stocking. Talleyrand was an amazing survivor and a man entirely without honor or moral scruples. I would like to see a video about him.

    @KingsandGenerals You should do a video about the Finnish war of 1808-09 as a part of your Napoléonic war documentary. There is no one else that have done that. People say it's a small war, yes but more people died in the Finnish war than in the war of 1812. I think the Finnish war deserve the spotlight for once.

    Fantastic video. I love just how in-depth you went with the operational and strategic planning. Were you using "Thunder on the Danube" by John H. Gill as a source? I'm reading it at the moment and noticed quite a few similarities between how he explained things and how you did. Excellent book, very good to use as a source. I appreciate the greater depth and complexity of this video.
