Tsar Alexander
Kutúzov
Location:
Berëzina and Vílna
It is said that the destruction of the bridge over the Berëzina was worse for the French than the Battle of Kräsnoe, but numbers show that Kräsnoe was worse.
Disapproval of Kutúzov continues, with people thinking him a crackpot for withholding men from battles.
The Emperor comes to visit Kutúzov at Vílna and hugs him, causing Kutúzov to sob a bit. The Emperor then complains about Kutúzov to the field-marshal after Kutúzov leaves the room. The Emperor seems to approve of him by the end of the chapter though, as Kutúzov is awarded the Order of St George of the First Class.
