My Many Battles
Dear diary,
It is I! The Great Napoleon Bonaparte! Days ago we made victory in Egypt as I knew we would. I decided we would first strike first in Syria. On the date February 1799 we took both Palestine and Syria. A two for one deal I said! It was going well until we got to Acre and found the stupid Ottoman garrison supported a stupid British naval squad! The siege we attempted lasted from March 18th to May 20th before we were forced back to stupid Egypt. If it was just us against the Ottoman Garrison we would have won by a mile! My greatness would ensure it!
April 16th
It is me again! Today we took stand during the battle of Mt. Tabor and the stupid Ottoman army took a big hit from my GREATNESS! We got them good in Syria.
June 14th
My troops and I made a stupendous! Entrance to Cairo, one of my fellow commanders in Alexandria was low on troops at the moment and with the Ottoman forces on the move he called out to my GREATNESS and asked for my help!
???
I decided it was only wise to create a new army! One with more power and GUSTA! Then the one I had now. I took it upon myself to strip forces from the French garrison and set out in search of the Ottoman armies. The stupid army was still camping out in Aboukir Bay.
We won the battle of course. I’m great and so we made sure to see to the end of the second Ottoman invasion! The French now had an occupation in Egypt because of my greatness! They should give me a parade or something. The stupid British still hate my GREATNESS however, I think their all jealous. This guy by the name Sir Sidney Smith seems to be after me, it looks as if he’s going to try and get me on my way back to my beloved France. I’m just going to have to see.
The battle of Austerlitz
Things are not going well these two stupid Russian armies decided to hook up and that may cause some problem for me later on. I was not happy to make the order for La Grande Armée to fall back, but did so nevertheless. The Great me has decided to make a stand in a selected area near the town of Austerlitz. I have sent my assistant to spread FALSE rumors of the French’s weakness, all the while getting my troops ready to go to war. MY GREATNESS TROMPS ALL!!!
December 1st
The allies have arrived, I could not be happier! We have a show for them indeed we do! I have come up with such a plan it is worthy of my GREATNESS itself, it’s simple you see I purposely weakened and spread out my right flank to enticing as many Allie soldiers to that side of the battlefield as possible. Then, when the time is right and most of the Allied troops were engaged on one of the two wings, I will give the order and the other divisions of IV Corps would storm the Pratzen Heights in the center, smashing the Allied center and breaking their line. IS IT NOT PURE GREATNESS???
December 2nd
There was mist all over the place! It was ruining everything! The allies were currently wining and I couldn’t have that! Around eight in the morning my GREAT eyes saw something far off in the distance, the allied troops were moving off to the south! I said to my assistant, Soult, “How long will it take you to move your divisions to the top of the Pratzen Heights?" he responded "Less than twenty minutes, sire," we waited fifteen minutes before I sent them off to attack. I knew the allies saw our attack but it was too late, we had them stuck. I won a decisive victory, the legend of this victory will strike fear into his enemies for years to come! MY GREATNESS SAYS SO!
The battle of Abensberg
April 20th 1809
This was the first stage in my counter attack against stupid Austria. I took command upon arrival on the 19th. The battle had begun early that morning and by the end Austria was split in two, the cowards just could not take all my GREATNESS! I planned an attack on the Austrian center; we would break through it and thus split the troops from the main force heading towards Landshut to cut off any Austrians trying to retreat east to the south of the Danube, and the rest turning left in an attempt to trap the rest of the Austrian army against the Danube. The bridge at Regensburg was the key to this plan. As long as it remained within my hold we were fine. By the end we managed to split the stupid Austrian army in half but unfortunately we took a small loss, the surrender of our troops in Regensburg.
The battle of Waterloo
As of now I understand that the only chance of keeping my power is to attack first before the mobilization of all the Allies armies. I shall take out the armies in Coalition that are in the south of Brussels before they are commanded, thus I will be able to drive the British army to the sea and defeat the Prussians army in the battle.
On June 16
My GREATNESS has taken out the stupid Prussians no surprise there. I did require help from my right wing but it was still MY GREATNESS that beat the Prussians. The battle of waterloo was to be fought by the Prussians, THE GREAT ME and the Multinational army.
The Battle of Waterloo took place in the city where I figured we could get a good defensive stance, however the sky seemed to hate me and it started raining! No matter right? Well, everything was mud and the stupid enemies’ area dried first! We would have won if those stupid Prussians hadn’t come to give back up to the Multinational army! We had to surrender, but no matter right? MY GREATNESS LIVES ON!!!
