When he was a young artillery officer he managed to drive the Royal Navy out of Toulon. Throughout his career the Royal Navy and the troops of the United Kingdom remained the greatest obstacle in his long and illustrious career.

Wanting to invade Russia, he had not counted on the Russian winter, this is where he lost a great many of his supplies and more than half his troops, the Russians burned everything that they thought Napoleon would use, including fuel and food., they then set Moscow ablaze, he had no choice but to return to France defeated.
