Napoleon was located in the right place at the right time on two occasions where he was able to make the correct decision to effect battlefield success that gained him notice, advancement and recognition for a degree of ruthless response to Royalist counter revolutionaries. At the Siege of Toulon he was given command of the Artillery because he was the only Artillery Officer available. He gathered up all of the available weapons and artillerymen, seized the high ground, placed his weapons and attacked the British Navy in the port by noon of the following day. The Royal Navy upped anchor and fled for the high seas. He then bombarded Royalist strong points for the remainder of the night, and Toulon was surrendered to the French Revolutionary Army. After the slaughter, Napoleon was a made man and a Brigadier General. Back in Paris he was given command of the protection of the Directory against Royalists and killed 1,400 with a whiff of grapeshot that ended the counter revolution and cleared the Paris streets.
