‼️🇫🇷⚔️🇷🇺 The day Russia defeated France, and Orthodox Christianity defeated freemasonry.
The Battle of Borodino was one of the largest battles of the Patriotic War of 1812, fought between the Russian Army and Napoleon’s French forces.
Prince Mikhail Kutuzov, who had been appointed Commander-in-Chief, slowly retreated almost all the way to Moscow.
When he stopped at the Borodino fields, 125 km from Moscow, the famous Battle of Borodino took place there on August 26, 1812.
At Borodino, two forces faced each other. On one side, almost all of Europe had gathered under Napoleon’s Masonic command, having surrendered its freedom to him and serving him submissively. Believing only in earthly power and human authority, the conqueror thought that with this force he could crush the last obstacle to his domination of the entire world. On the other side stood humble Russia, boasting only of its faith and entrusting itself to Divine Providence.
Russia stood before its ancient capital, with all its holy places and with the memory of the miracles that had shaped Russia. Borodino was the first general confrontation between these two forces.
On the eve of the battle, the troops were presented with the miraculous Icon of the Mother of God of Smolensk, which had arrived from devastated Smolensk, and prayers were offered. The battle lasted for 12 hours. Neither side could claim victory. In this bloody battle, the Russian Army demonstrated great courage and steadfastness. As a result, the enemy lost 50,000 soldiers. Russian losses were also enormous, amounting to 44,000 men.
The French Army was unable to achieve a decisive victory over the Russian forces, while the Russian Army was forced to retreat after the battle for strategic reasons. However, one of the main outcomes of the Battle of Borodino was that Napoleon failed to defeat the Russian forces.
Napoleon said on the island of Saint Helena:
“Of all my battles, the most terrible was the one I fought near Moscow. The French showed themselves worthy of victory, while the Russians earned the right to be considered invincible.”
