Fun fact: the years that Napoleon and Hitler invaded Russia were each one of the coldest winters on record

>>70828597
>>70828640
Scorched Earth had little to do with the cold.

We pulled the same shit here and it stopped you guys in your tracks.

In fact, the Russians used it against Napoleon because of how successful it was here (albeit in a smaller scale).

Being the best field general is worthless if nobody's fighting you in a field.

Same thing for guerrilhas, which contrary to popular belief had been used for ages (although the Spanish would coin them only a couple year after).

>>70828684
Shit excuse. The Russians even put on a fireplace for them to be warm.

>>70828683


>>70828730 is right, most of the Russian generals wanted to face France in an open field battle but Barclay de Tolly knew that it would be a disaster for Russia. So he did everything to convince Alexander that a scorched earth tactic would be the best strategy while the other russian officers called him a coward.

If Alexander did not listen to him the 1812 campaign would have probably ended in a french victory.

>and Islam

"Religions are all founded on miracles — on things we cannot understand, such as the Trinity. Jesus calls himself the Son of God, and yet is descended from David. I prefer the religion of Mahomet — it is less ridiculous than ours.
"The Mohammedan religion is the finest of all"
"Muhammad was a great man, an intrepid soldier; with a handful of men he triumphed at the battle of Bender (sic); a great captain, eloquent, a great man of state, he revived his fatherland and created a new people and a new power in the middle of Arabia."
"Muhammad was a prince; he rallied his compatriots around him. In a few years, the Muslims conquered half of the world. They plucked more souls from false gods, knocked down more idols, razed more pagan temples in fifteen years than the followers of Moses and Jesus did in fifteen centuries. Muhammad was a great man. He would indeed have been a god, if the revolution that he had performed had not been prepared by the circumstances."

You should finally admit that anglos made a mistake and should've ally with Napoleon. He would've make Europe an ethernal empire and prevent WW1 and WW2. We would've conquer other planets right now.

Yes. He wasn't an atheist per se, he did have some belief in divine providence and an afterlife populated by the great heroes of history like Julius Caesar and Hannibal and Saladin and whatnot, more like the Greek Elysian Fields than the Christian Heaven.
