On troop dispositions in Spain: Napoleon directs the recipient to write to the Duke of Istria (Marshal Bessières) not to withdraw General Bonnet from the Asturias, detailing the strategic advantages of the present disposition, and the negative consequences of the withdrawal, and making further orders with regards to artillery. 'Ecrivez au Duc d'Istrie qu'avant de faire évacuer les Asturies par le General Bonnet, il pense à ce qu'il fait, que je regarde cette mesure en elle même comme fort mauvaise que si le G.al Bonnet evacuerait les Asturies, le Duc d'Istrie serait obligé de le placer à Santander; qu'alors il n'aurait fait que découvrir Léon et Valladolid et donner toute liberté aux Insurgés d'inquieter la plaine et de se porter même sur Astorga et Benevent; que c'est une détestable opération. -- Le General Bonnet ne devrait évacuer Oviedo que pour livrer bataille aux anglais'.
注意事项
