About :
Austerlitz was Napoleon's perfect victory. In terms of strategy and tactics, the battle is considered a model and an unsurpassed masterpiece of the art of war. After Napoleon abandoned his plan to invade England in August 1805, he sent his Grande Armée on a three-month, 1,500-kilometer march towards the southeast. Using a detailed reconstruction of the battle, the documentary film examines how Napoleon managed to defeat the opposing coalition, which had marched against him with fresh and numerically superior troops. Austerlitz was Napoleon's perfect victory. In terms of strategy and tactics, the battle is considered a model and an unsurpassed masterpiece of the art of war. Using a detailed reconstruction of the battle, the film examines how Napoleon managed to defeat the opposing coalition. In August 1805, Napoleon and his army of over 200,000 men prepared to invade England near Boulogne. But the operation proved too dangerous due to the superiority of the English navy, which controlled the English Channel off the north-eastern coast of France. When Napoleon learned that the English were forming an alliance between Russia and Austria against him, he ordered his troops to turn back. Thanks to the rapid advance of his soldiers, Napoleon encircled the enemy and forced the Austrian army to lay down its arms at Ulm. He then pursued the retreating Russian troops. Napoleon's military skill lay above all in forcing the Russians to fight on a battlefield of his own choosing: the Pratzen heights above the village of Austerlitz. To achieve this, he divided his troops into several corps located in different places, giving the inexperienced Tsar Alexander I the impression that Napoleon's army was outnumbered. On the eve of the battle, Napoleon ordered his troops to advance quickly. During the entire course of the battle, which is regarded as a model in all military academies, the French emperor managed to profit from every single mistake made by his opponent, until he finally delivered a devastating blow. The French suffered only minor losses. While the naval battle of Trafalgar had sealed the English dominance of the seas shortly before, Austerlitz did not bring a decisive outcome. On the continent, new battles had to be fought again and again. But a victory as perfect as that at Austerlitz cannot be repeated; as history shows, it can also be a milestone on the road to final ruin.
