Best Answer

The Russian Army slowly retreated back to Moscow as the Napoleonic Army advanced. As they went they burned the Russian plains so that Napoleon's army would have nothing to eat along the road. This, combined with a late start to the campaign from Napoleon, combined to freeze/starve the French troops enough to the point that the Russian army could easily defeat them and drive them back into Central Europe.
