blucher

In Berlin, Princess Blucher wrote in her diary, “Nothing is talked of but the expected entry into Paris.”

The attack was commenced by the allies under Blucher upon the French centre, with a fury irresistible.

Blucher had a horse killed under him, and narrowly escaped with his life.

Then we look on the sad picture of Napoleon's last campaign, when he meets his match in the dogged Blucher.

The duke had seen Blucher in the morning, and had promised to assist the Prussians if not himself attacked.

Blucher however was with Bulow's corps, and he was eager to press forward, at whatever cost.
