He didn't prepare for the winter when his army had gone to fight in Moscow.
The Russians were used to the harsh winters. Napoleon's army was not.
the naked mile
Napoleon did not prepare his army for the winter in Russia. He also had: * An over extended supply line. * The scorched earth withdrawal by the Russians. * The refusal of the Russians to engage in a decisive battle. * Bad weather.
As for Tolstoi, Napoleon loose the campaign of Russia the day he enter this vast country with his army. The strategy of Koutousov after Borodino, was not to stop Napoleon to get into Mosco. In this city, the french army was doomed to desintegrate as a disciplined force, especially after the burning of Moscow. Then, Napoleon had no choice but to retreat. Russian winter and the fierce Kossaqs did the rest.

He was a pretty successful leader until he lost to the Russians! He would have dominated the world if the Russians didn't stop his early. Thank Russia for that
Durring the Battle of Waterloo,the Russians used the Scorched-Earth Polacy, meaning that the Russians burnt down there own city to keep the french troops from living off of their lands. this left Napoleon and his troops hungry and subject to the cold.
Simply by waiting to attack during the brutal Russian winter.
