About this audiobook
The Seven Years War (1756–1763) was a global conflict between Great Britain and France for global power. Britain, France and Spain fought both in Europe and overseas with armies and fleets, while Prussia sought territorial expansion in Europe and consolidation of its power. At the battle of Leuthen, on December 5, 1757, Charles of Lorraine possessed an eclectic force of Habsburg troops, including several border contingents and imperial troops from the duchies of Württemberg and Bavaria. On the other side of the hill, when facing an army twice his size, Frederick had to rely on technical and tactical training of his men and make the most of the terrain to perform a near-ideal maneuver. In the battle simulation, I will try to correct the flaws presented in the historical analysis, testing improvements in the maneuvers. And then we will prove which maneuver will prevail, both being instructed with the best and maximum effort.
