On 7 September 1812, at Borodino, 120 km (75 mi) west of Moscow, Napoleon I's forces met those of General Mikhail Kutuzov in a concerted stand made by Russia against the seemingly invincible French Army. The Battle of Borodino saw casualties estimated as high as 100,000 and the French were masters of the field. It was, however, ultimately a pyrrhic victory for the French invasion. With resources depleted and supply lines overextended, Napoleon I's weakened forces moved into Moscow, which they occupied with no delegation to receive the conquerors. Expecting a capitulation from Tsar Alexander I, the French instead found themselves in a barren and desolate city. To make things worse, 48 hours after Napoleon I's entry to the Russian city on 14 September 1812, three quarters of Moscow was burned to the ground. ĭeprived of winter stores, Napoleon I had to retreat. Beginning on 19 October and lasting well into December, the French Army faced several overwhelming obstacles on its long retreat: famine, typhus, freezing temperatures, harassing cossacks, and Russian forces barring the way out of the country. Abandoned by Napoleon I in November, the Grande Armée was reduced to one-tenth of its original size by the time it reached Poland and relative safety.
