The Battle of Borodino and the results of the battle

In
August 1812, on the Borodino field, two opposing armies met in a fierce battle: the Russian army under the command of infantry general Mikhail Illarionovich Golenishchev-Kutuzov and the Grand Army of the French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte.
The most decisive in the war of 1812 was the Battle of Borodino . On August 24, a fierce battle broke out near the village of Shevardino. At 5.30 am the French began shelling and then launched an attack on the Russian positions. The battle lasted 12 hours.

Historians still argue about the number of deaths. The most realistic figures: from 80 to 100 thousand people.

Every minute more than a hundred people died on the battlefield. It was the bloodiest one-day battle in history .

300 thousand people with 1,200 artillery pieces took part in this grandiose battle on both sides

An excerpt from L. Tolstoy’s novel “War and Peace” and a fragment of a poem by Denis Davydov

..“Russian troops, having retreated from Borodino, stood at Fili. Ermolov, who had gone to inspect the position, drove up to the field marshal.

“There is no way to fight in this position,” he said. Kutuzov looked at him in surprise and forced him to repeat the words he had said. When he spoke, Kutuzov extended his hand to him. “Give me your hand,” he said, and, turning it so as to feel his pulse, he said: “You are not well, my dear.” Think about what you are saying. Kutuzov on Poklonnaya Hill, six miles from the Dorogomilovskaya outpost, got out of the carriage and sat down on a bench at the edge of the road...”

Monarch, be ashamed! Is this similarity?

Is it decent for you?.. I am a mirror: break me, The River is your offspring: You will still find yourself in it.”

Heroes of the War of 1812

Patriotic War of 1812

It is very important to be interested in the history of your country. This year I heard very often about the anniversary of the Battle of Borodino and I wanted to know more about it. Therefore, I chose the Patriotic War of 1812 as the topic of my work.

In 2012, we celebrated the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Borodino, perhaps the largest and most significant battle for Russia in the 19th century.

More than once Russia had to defend its freedom and independence. And always, thanks to the selfless struggle of the Russian people, the plans of the invaders were defeated.

begun by Alexander I were interrupted by Napoleon's invasion of Russia in 1812.

Napoleon Bonaparte is a man of unusual destiny. He was born on August 15, 1769 on the small island of Corsica, owned by France. The son of a poor nobleman, Napoleon graduated from the military academy in Paris when he was 16 years old. At the age of 24 he was already a general, then became consul of France, and in 1804 Napoleon was proclaimed emperor. France was at war almost continuously.

In the end, Napoleon became the ruler of Europe. But he wanted to conquer the whole world. “In three years I will be the ruler of the world... Russia remains, but I will crush it,” Napoleon said before the invasion of Russia. He even ordered a medal with the image of God and the inscription “Heaven for you, earth for me” to be knocked out.

Napoleon gathered 638,000 troops from the peoples under his control and moved them to Russia.

“I’m going to Moscow,” he said, “and in one or two battles I’ll finish everything. Emperor Alexander will be on his knees to ask me for peace.”

Napoleon gathered 638,000 troops from the peoples under his control and moved them to Russia.

“I’m going to Moscow,” he said, “and in one or two battles I’ll finish everything. Emperor Alexander will be on his knees to ask me for peace.” Indeed, everything foreshadowed undoubted success for the French: enormous forces, the genius of the commander, his luck and invincibility. Among the Russian people, the name of Napoleon spread some kind of mysterious fear. But the general opinion was this: it is better to die than to submit to a hated enemy.

The Patriotic War began on June 12, 1812 . Having crossed the Neman River, Napoleon sent one detachment north to the city of St. Petersburg, and he himself with the main forces rushed to Moscow. Napoleon was confident of an imminent victory. Three Russian armies were stationed on the western border. The Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Russian army was Emperor Alexander 1.

The size of the armies was about 240,000 people. Napoleon hoped to defeat them one by one. But experienced Russian military leaders figured out the enemy’s plan.

Mikhail Illarionovich Kutuzov was appointed commander-in-chief of the Russian army at the most crucial moment for Russia. “Kutuzov has arrived to beat the French,” the soldiers said. He had long been known and loved among the troops. Mikhail Illarionovich Kutuzov was born on September 5, 1745 in St. Petersburg.

At the age of 14, he graduated with honors from the Noble Artillery School. From the age of 16 he was a warrant officer, company commander of the Astrakhan Infantry Regiment. He took part in numerous wars that Russia was waging at that time.

Kutuzov was familiar with the tactics and art of Napoleon in practice. In 1805, Russia helped Austria against Napoleon. The Russians were then commanded by Kutuzov. Napoleon forced the Austrians to surrender before they could link up with the Russians. Kutuzov was forced to retreat. The retreat was made 350 miles and was accompanied by such skillful and cunning maneuvers that Napoleon called Kutuzov a “cunning fox.”

Now, when Napoleon took Smolensk and was approaching Moscow, Alexander 1 was forced to appoint Mikhail Illarionovich Kutuzov as commander-in-chief of the Russian army. Kutuzov was then 67 years old. The new commander-in-chief, having arrived at the army, said to himself: “How can you retreat with such fellows!” Everyone was looking forward to the fight. But the next day the order was given to retreat.

On August 26 (September 7 according to the new style), 1812, 124 kilometers from Moscow near the village of Borodino , the largest battle took place between the Russian and French armies.

Tell me, uncle, it’s not for nothing that Moscow, burned by fire, was given to the Frenchman. After all, there were fighting fights, and they say there were more! It’s not for nothing that all of Russia remembers Borodin’s Day! - writes M. Yu. Lermontov.

Two roads passed through the village of Borodino. Having occupied them, the Russians blocked the French’s path to Moscow.

And then we found a large field: There is somewhere to roam in the wild! They built a redoubt. Our ears are on top! As soon as the morning illuminated the cannons and the blue tops of the forests, the French were right there.

On the Borodino field, two huge armies stood opposite each other: 135,000 soldiers and 580 guns for Napoleon and 120,000 soldiers and 640 guns for Kutuzov.

The Russian army was commanded by experienced military leaders: Pyotr Ivanovich Bagration, Barclay de Tolly, Nikolai Nikolaevich Raevsky, Nikolai Alekseevich Tuchkov The main blow of the French fell on
Bagration's .
Barclay de Tolly commanded the 1st Army during the battle. After stubborn battles with Bagration's army, the French threw all their forces at the central front, commanded by Barclay de Tolly. The entire time the battle was going on, the general was on the front line, in close proximity to the enemy, on horseback. Bullets whistled, shells exploded, showering the general with clods of earth. But the general did not try to take cover. After the next explosion, he shook off his uniform and continued to command the battle.

The skillful, impeccable actions of General Nikolai Nikolaevich Raevsky, who commanded the battery in the center of the Borodino field, determined the fate of the entire battle. The artillerymen's targeted fire kept the enemy's attack line under control, and the infantrymen fought bravely on the approaches to the height where the battery stood.

The French suffered huge losses in the Battle of Borodino - 60,000 killed. However, Russian losses were also great - over 40,000 killed. It was risky to continue the fight. Kutuzov decided to withdraw the army to Moscow. On the morning of August 27, the Russian army left the Borodino field. Give a new battle or surrender Moscow without a fight? These doubts tormented Kutuzov. The generals insisted on battle.

On September 1, a military council met in the village of Fili. Kutuzov understood that going to battle meant risking the fate of the Fatherland. At the military council, Kutuzov made a difficult decision: to leave Moscow, save the army and prepare for the next battles.

On September 2, the Russian army left Moscow. On the same day, the advanced detachments of the French entered Moscow. The French Emperor Napoleon expected Muscovites to bring him the keys to Moscow, as was the case in many European cities. But Moscow was empty. This stunned Napoleon

French soldiers began to plunder Moscow. And soon fires started. They burned for several days.

A partisan movement developed around Moscow. Small partisan detachments attacked individual parts of the French army.

During his month in the capital, Napoleon lost 30,000 of his soldiers. Food supplies have dried up. The great and invincible army turned into a gang of robbers and robbers.

Napoleon understood that the army was disintegrating. Without waiting for a proposal to conclude peace, Napoleon left Moscow. Kutuzov, stationed in the town of Turutino near Moscow, blocked the French army’s path to retreat along the New Smolensk Road, which had not yet been destroyed by the French.

Having suffered heavy losses in the battle of Maloyaroslavets, Napoleon turned his army around and led along the Old Smolensk Road.

Architectural monuments dedicated to
the Patriotic War of 1812
prepared

Krylova Ekaterina

Vladimirovna

Alexander Column

The Alexander Column is located on Palace Square.

It is one of the most famous monuments of the city.

The monument is the tallest in the world, created from solid granite.

It was erected in the center of Palace Square in 1834.

Architect - O. Montferrand.

Built by order of Nicholas I.

It is a tribute to the memory of Alexander I’s very important victory over Napoleon for Russia and the whole world.

Alexander Column

For the main part of the column, rock found in Finland was used.

From the same rock, after the pieces were separated, huge stones were cut out for the foundation of the monument.

The largest of them weighed more than 400 tons.

Parts of the future column were delivered by water to St. Petersburg.

The monolith went first to Kronstadt, and then to St. Petersburg to the Palace Embankment.

1,250 six-meter pine piles were driven under its foundation.

Alexander Column

The monument is crowned with a figure of an angel, made by Boris Orlovsky.

He holds a four-pointed Latin cross in his left hand and raises his right hand to the sky.

The angel's head is tilted, his gaze is fixed on the ground.

His facial features were given a resemblance to Tsar Alexander I.

An angel tramples a serpent with a cross, which symbolizes the peace and tranquility that Russia brought to Europe with its victory over Napoleon's troops.

Arch of the General Staff

The General Staff Building, one of the most famous architectural monuments of St. Petersburg.

Built according to the design of the architect K.I. Russia in 1820-1830

The architect based the project on the idea of ​​connecting two independent buildings into a single whole with a triumphal arch.

The majestic arch is a monument to victory in the War of 1812, a symbol of military triumph and glory of Russia

The triumphal arch of the main headquarters was opened on October 24, 1828.

Arch of the General Staff

From a height of 36 m, at the top of the structure, a triumphal chariot with six horses soars.

They are held back by two warriors dressed in Roman armor and armed with spears.

In the cart stands the winged Glory, extending the standard with her left hand over the square.

In the right hand of the goddess is a laurel wreath.

Until 1945 it was called the Red Army Arch.

Narva Gate

The monument is located on Stachek Square right at the exit from the Narvskaya metro station.

The triumphal arch was dedicated to Russian soldiers - winners of the Patriotic War of 1812.

It was built on the site of the Narva outpost in one month according to the design of G. Quarenghi from wood and alabaster.

In 1814, the victors returning from the war passed under it.

The gates quickly became dilapidated and new ones were erected according to the design of V.P. Stasov (1827-1834).

Narva Gate

Severity and beauty are embodied in stone.

The height of the arch is 23 meters, with the sculpture of Victory - 30 meters.

Twelve columns decorate the gate.

In the niches are statues of four warriors.

On the cornice are figures of Glory and Peace.

Six horses, controlled by the goddess of Victory Nika, seem to be in flight over the entire composition.

Great sculptors worked on their creation: P.K. Klodt, V.I. Demut-Malinovsky, S. Pimenov.

Gilded letters on the facades list the regiments that distinguished themselves in the War of 1812.

Kazan Cathedral

One of the largest religious buildings in the Northern capital is the majestic Kazan Cathedral.

Wings - colonnades - spread out from the center of the structure in both directions. The outside of the cathedral is decorated with bas-reliefs made of yellowish limestone.

The building makes a colossal impression.

The interior and exterior decoration of the temple is stunning: 56 magnificent columns, which are made of Finnish pink granite and decorated with gilded Corinthian capitals, create a feeling of spaciousness and grandeur.

In 1811, the Kazan Cathedral was consecrated.

Kazan Cathedral

St. Petersburg carefully preserves the memory of the valiant Russian soldiers who, straight from the church, after serving a prayer service, went to the Patriotic War.

M. I. Kutuzov left this cathedral to command the Russian troops, and here his body was buried with honors in 1813, in a crypt under the arches of the Kazan Cathedral.

24 years later, a monument to the great commander was erected on the square in front of the cathedral.

The Kazan Cathedral houses numerous trophies of the Patriotic War: banners, defeated troops, keys to captured cities and fortresses.

Kazan Cathedral

The sculptures of Kutuzov and Barclay de Tolly were made by Orlovsky in 1831-1836, the casting was carried out by master Ekimov.

The commanders are depicted in full height in their military uniforms with cloaks.

The grand opening of the monuments in honor of the 25th anniversary of the victory over Napoleon in the Patriotic War of 1812 took place in 1837 during the reign of Emperor Nicholas I.

We also did not stand aside and prepared a presentation for children of senior preschool age *War of 1812* , in which we tried to tell children about those distant events in an interesting and accessible way.

Text accompanying the presentation

Guys, today I want to tell you about a war , a war that happened a long time ago - 200 years ago.

This story began in France, at the end of the 18th century, when General Napoleon Bonaparte seized power in the country and proclaimed himself emperor.

And this emperor wanted to conquer the whole world, gathered a huge army and went to war against neighboring countries : Spain, Italy, Prussia, Austria and all these countries submitted to him, rich citizens brought him the keys to the cities on a golden tray, fed his soldiers, horses and paid him a huge tribute.

And Napoleon decided to seize our country - Russia.

On June 12, 1812, a huge French army invaded Russia.

The Patriotic War began .

Our army was much smaller than the French, and at first we had to retreat.

And the commander of all Russian troops was General Mikhail Illarionovich Kutuzov.

Kutuzov was a very experienced warrior and understood that with every step deeper into Russia, the French forces would weaken, and the strength of the Russian troops would increase.

Therefore, Kutuzov continued to retreat, as if luring the enemy army, until a convenient position for battle was found near the city of Mozhaisk.

On August 26, two huge armies met on the Borodino field.

The battle lasted all day. Either the Russian army or the French took the upper hand. Finally, when it got dark, the battle died down of its own accord. Napoleon did not win the battle at Borodino for the first time. Thus began the path to victory for the Russian troops, but they continued to retreat, retreat to Moscow.

In the village, Fili called Kutuzov his generals and colonels and began to decide whether to fight near Moscow or surrender the ancient capital. The generals argued for a long time, saying that the capital of our state should not be given to the enemy, but Kutuzov said “Moscow is not all of Russia.”

and added:
“As long as the army is intact, Russia is intact
. It was decided to leave Moscow.

Residents hastily left Moscow, abandoning their homes and all their property to the mercy of the people. French troops entered the empty city. This was the first time. In all the countries conquered by Napoleon, noble citizens, admitting defeat, presented Napoleon with the keys to the city. Napoleon waited a long time, but no one brought him the keys to Moscow.

And in the morning Moscow was on fire.

The French army was not ready for the harsh Russian winter, Napoleon wanted to spend the whole winter in Moscow so that his army could rest, but after almost all of Moscow burned down, he had nowhere to stay in winter quarters, the Russian people did not want to feed his army.

The fall and fire of Moscow shocked the Russian people. People's militia began to gather throughout the country; ordinary people, men and women, almost without weapons, smashed French convoys with weapons and food, and attacked enemy troops.

A simple Russian woman, a peasant, gathered a detachment of partisans and attacked the French, the Russian people affectionately called her Vlasyevna, the French were afraid like fire.

This is a picture from those times.

Finally, the French army, hungry and ragged, left Moscow, Napoleon decided to return to France.

The retreat of the French was accompanied by Kutuzov's army, giving them no rest either on the way or on vacation. Finally, on December 14, 1812, the last remnants of the French troops were expelled from Russia. The collapse of Napoleon's empire began.

The Russian army not only drove Napoleon's army out of Russia, but also drove it all the way to France.

In 1814, Russian troops entered Paris. Thus ended the attempts to bring Russia to its knees.

And the fate of Emperor Napoleon is sad, he was exiled to a lonely island, along with a few people devoted to him, where he died.

Look - these are the heroes of that distant war .

And now I want to show you what the military looked like, the soldiers of those times and what weapons they had.
