Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Confidential Correspondence of Napoleon Bonaparte, Vol. 2 of 2: With His Brother Joseph, Sometime King of Spain My Brother, - General La Romana has less than 1000 men pressed into the service, naked, and dying of hunger; ho no longer dares trust his army in the field, exasperated as it is against him. Marshal Soult attacked him on the 26th with 2 cavalry regiments, and took 1500 men and 2 standards. He entered Leon on the 80th, aud found 2000 sick in the hospitals. The army of Gallicia cannot be said to have really existed after the affair of Espinosa, and now less than ever. This first day of the year Marshal Soult is at Pucnte-de-Orvigo. Marshal Bessiercs slept at La Bancsa, and is marching on Astorga, where we shall be to-day. The English have abandoned on the road 1500 tents, 4000 blankets, all their rum, an immense number of waggons, and many stragglers. I have not yet done with them; I shall pursue them vigorously. I shall reach Astorga this evening. I sent you word that Dessolles´s division was on its way back to Madrid: the communication by way of Valladolid, Burgos, Segovia, and Guadarrama, will thus be secured.
