Book 1: Waterloo, Chapter 11 de 365 · 3 min para leer el chapter
In Chapter 11, Napoleon expects Grouchy, but Bülow’s Prussian troops approach by a route that allows their artillery through, despite delays from mud and fire. Napoleon’s staff misreads the distant force, while Blücher orders an attack to relieve Wellington, bringing Prussian fire against the French positions.
