The russians had a huge army and Russia has a big land mass. At first, Napoleon was doing good and pretty much defeated the Russians but the Russians had more men, and when the Grand Armée was retreating they all slowly died from the bitter winter weather (below -30 degrees celsius) and literally froze in the middle of the road, plus Napoleon did not supply enough food or water, so the army would eat some of the left over horses from the dead troops or any animals they could find. Napoleans army was destroyed.
