	Battle of Friedland
		The Russian General Benningsen had begun withdrawing his army to the east, and Napoleon was anxious to force a decisive confrontation on the Russians to end the war.
		Analyzing the situation, many of the imperial staff wanted to wait until the next day to attempt to destroy the Russians, as the troops under Marshals Davout and Murat were too far away to arrive until the 15th.
		Friedland was set on fire by the Russians to try and divert the French, but unfortunately for them, the flames spread to the pontoon bridges, destroying most of their avenues of escape.

	Battle of Friedland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Battle of Friedland, fought on June 14, 1807 about twenty-seven miles (43 km) southeast of the modern Russian city of Kaliningrad, just north of Poland, was a major engagement in the Napoleonic Wars during the War of the Fourth Coalition.
		By the end of the battle, the French were in complete control of the battlefield and the Russian army was retreating chaotically over the Alle River, where many soldiers drowned while trying to escape.
		The army of Napoleon was set in motion for Friedland, but it was still dispersed on its various march routes, and the first stage of the engagement was thus, as usual, a pure encounter-battle.
