The Russian defence of their homeland resulted in the massive battle of Borodino. 7th Sept 1812.
Combatants of about 250 000 on both sides accounted for about 70 000 casualties! ( 28%) It was a huge, bloody struggle and although the French took the field it was a hollow victory, despite opening the road to Moscow.
Too late, the French arrived only to find that anyone that mattered had left to go to St Petersburg.
14th Sept 1812. Moscow was in flames. The retreat from Moscow was terrible for the French (Tchaikowski does it as well as any !) and the predation of winter & Cossacks made their problems shocking & unimaginable.
Dokhturov blocked the retreat at Maloyaroslavets on the 24th October & Napoleon changed his route of retreat via Smolensk, the way they had come.
This was a disasterous alteration. by the end of November the French had reached the Berezina river only to be attacked by 3 combined Russian armies.
Few would see the Niemen river which marked the Polish border. The campaign had cost the lives of something in the region of 700 000 lives!
Strategically Kutuzov has mastered his forces well for the Tsar, despite the death of Prince Bagration at Borodino.
By the time the French have left the Grande Armee will never again be the force it was, for obvious reasons, despite what would happen at Leipzig in 1813, Napoleons defence of France in the 1814 campaign and indeed the final action at Waterloo.
The Russians had at last seen off the French threat from their homeland.

Generally speaking the enveloping movement in military operations usually helps describe a battle "tactic". Germany, however, in World War One expanded this tactic to such a large degree that it can be referred to as a strategy. In its efforts to destroy the French army within France itself, German forces struck at the French flank and rear by advancing through Belgium. The Germans were defeated, however, at the Marne and driven back although they still retained a small portion of France. Napoleon is credited with using this enveloping idea in a more tactical way within a small battle in comparison to Germany's huge and wide sweep against France. This was a tactic used by both Mexico and the USA in the Mexican war and in the US Civil War.
One fighting tactic that was used in the Revolutionary was was guerrilla warfare. It's kind of like a hit and run tactic, as in a surprise attack, an ambush, etc.
MacArthur used the tactic of a flank attack at Inchon Korea.
When an army destroys everything as it retreats, this tactic is often referred to as a "scorched earth" policy. The primary goal is to deny the advancing enemy access to resources, supplies, and infrastructure that could aid their campaign. While it can slow down the enemy's progress, it also results in significant devastation to the land and can harm the civilian population left behind. This strategy can lead to long-term consequences for the affected region, as rebuilding can take years or even decades.
No, Blitzkrieg was a military tactic. It combined rapidly advancing armour with aerial bombardment.

the french fought in straight line's while the british used the guerrilla tactic
Yes they used there surrender tactic
To prevent unionization, employers locked out workers from the workplace and hired replacements. It was a tactic to try to intimidate workers to not demand fair wages, benefits, and better (safe) work conditions.
At the beginning of the US Civil War the so-called Zouave Rush was a battlefield tactic. Instead of advancing in a close line, stopping to fire from time to time, soldiers charged in loose order at a fast pace. They would then fall flat to the ground, making the defensive enemy forces unable to shoot them with any degree of accuracy. It was named after a French soldier in the French war in Algeria in 1831.
In the early stage of the war, the field artillery was mainly composed by smoothbore, muzzle loading guns, whose greatest effectiveness was developed at short range by firing canisters and grapeshots against advancing enemies or withstanding opposing units. The predominant tactic were therefore those of follow-up and shutdown.
The creeping barrage tactic was developed by British military leaders during World War I. It involved a synchronized artillery bombardment ahead of advancing infantry to provide cover and suppress enemy defenses.
His tactic was transparent.
