16 As you know there were many wars in the history of Russia. Russian people had to defend their Motherland more than once. Read the text about one of the dangerous wars that Russia fought.

RUSSIA IN THE WAR OF 1812

It happened in 1812. Russia was in great danger. Napoleon and his army were moving towards Russia. Napoleon wanted to conquer Russia as practically all of Europe now depended on him, but Russia did not. Napoleon was sure he could easily win the war against Russia.

At the beginning of the war the Russian army was moving back, leaving Russian lands to the enemy. Napoleon’s army was stronger, and there were more soldiers in it.

In August 1812, the two armies fought a terrible battle of Smolensk. A lot of people were killed on both sides. The Russian army left Smolensk in ruins. The people of Smolensk left the city along with the Russian army.

Napoleon’s army came into the empty city but couldn’t find anything in it. They left Smolensk and began to move towards Moscow.

Russia was in danger as never before. That’s why the Russian Tsar Alexander I invited the famous Russian general Michael Kutuzov to become the head of the Russian army.

Kutuzov decided to have a fight with Napoleon. He chose a field near the village of Borodino for the battle. On the seventh of September 1812 the famous battle began. It was the greatest fight between the Russian and French armies. The Russian soldiers were ready to die but not to move back. They fought for the independence of their country. They couldn’t imagine their Motherland under the enemy.

The famous battle of Borodino was the beginning of Great Victory over Napoleon in the war of 1812.
