Campaign Post Operations Report #4 - Allied Information

Allied Cavalry messenger
Majesties:

your intelligence services and spy networks report the following about the French Grande Armee:

Napoleon Bonaparte was seen in Leipzig, start of August.

Many supplies are concentrated in Dresden and Leipzig

The French army appears to have been organized under the following commands:

Maréchal Ney, Prince of Moscow, commanding the "Army of Berlin"
Maréchal Macdonald, Duke of Tarente commanding the "Army of Saxony"

and a Central army reserve, of unknown structure as little messenger activity has been intercepted - likely the Imperial Guard is located with this central army group.

  1. This is a great series and I look forward to having some of the 'mist' from the campaign lifted!
    More please!

  2. I did not keep all the emails, just the juicy ones that made me think of doing this larger after action reporting.

    Certainly more to come now that my travels have stopped for the moment and I have some time to write.
