What were Napoleon’s big three mistakes? ?
I WROTE SOME OF HIS MISTAKES, it is hard to answer exactly what your textbook MUST list according to their beliefs. – Invasion of Russia in 1812 : Napoleon’s army were not used to the climate in Russia, so it caused many men’s death. Napoleon made three basic mistakes in Spain: a. He imposed an unpopular ‘king’ on the Spanish. b. His method of feeding his army involved taking food by force from the locals rather than paying for it as did wellington. Thus, just about every Spaniard became an enemy causing him to waste troops on guarding duties. c. His generals failed to alter their battle tactics in response to the success of the British line defence and so lost every major battle they fought against the British from portugal right up to Paris (and beyond at waterloo). There is of course much more to all of this but I believe in essence that these were his three big errors in Spain.
