Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life of Field-Marshal Arthur, Duke of Wellington, Vol. 2 of 2 All the next day the Prussians continued their pursuit of the French, and Blucher advanced his head-quarters as far as Gosselies; but Wellington, who at daybreak had repaired to Brussels, did not move his troops further than Nivelles, where he himself arrived in the course of the evening; and where the next day he issued a general order to them, enjoining them, as they were on the point of entering the French territory, to recollect that their respective sovereigns were the allies of the King of France, and that they were therefore to treat France as a friendly country. He was thoroughly convinced in his own mind that the re-establishment of Louis XVIII. afforded the only probability of permanent peace, and he therefore without scruple took upon himself the adoption of such measures as might render that measure inevitable.
