In Which We Discuss War and Peace, Part 13, Chapter 3

Chapter 3

The Russian army is commanded both by Kutuzov, who is with the army, and by the Emperor, who is in St Petersburg.  The Emperor keeps sending ridiculous, impractical orders based on what he thinks is happening rather than what is actually happening, which Kutuzov politely ignores.  Eventually, it is decided to attack the left flank of the French on the 5th of October.
