| 13549 | And if he covered each point even by a brigade, where would be his army when he would need it to give battle to an approaching force? |
| 13549 | And was this sacrifice really useful? |
| 13549 | Are we to imagine that Eugene and Marlborough triumphed simply by inspiration or by the superior courage and discipline of their battalions? |
| 13549 | But how could he leave Schaffhausen unprotected? |
| 13549 | But is there no means of repelling such an invasion without bringing about an uprising of the whole population and a war of extermination? |
| 13549 | But will this faithful friend never yield to personal affections? |
| 13549 | Can an immense deployed line be moved up into action while firing? |
| 13549 | Can he not turn his adversary, surround, disperse, and ruin in succession all his divisions? |
| 13549 | Can the result of the march of Napoleon and Grouchy on Brussels be forgotten? |
| 13549 | Did not Eugene march by way of Stradella and Asti to the aid of Turin, leaving the French upon the Mincio but a few leagues from his base? |
| 13549 | Do not these false combinations resemble those of Soubise and Broglie in 1761, and all the operations of the Seven Years''War? |
| 13549 | How can they escape such a fate? |
| 13549 | How could so many small vessels be kept moving, even for two days and nights? |
| 13549 | How was he to defend such a circumference? |
| 13549 | How would it have been possible to attack the camps of Saorgio, Figueras, and Mont- Cenis with deployed regiments? |

| 13549 | If he had made a divergent retreat, what would have become of his army and his victories? |
| 13549 | In fact, how can any man say what he should do himself, if he is ignorant what his adversary is about? |
| 13549 | Is it an advantage to a state to have its armies commanded in person by the monarch? |
| 13549 | Is it indeed an easy matter to adopt any other order when marching to attack a position? |
| 13549 | Is logistics simply a science of detail? |
| 13549 | Is there no mean between these contests between the people and the old regular method of war between permanent armies? |
| 13549 | Moreover, was not the Archduke Charles enabled to beat Jourdan in 1796 by the use of converging routes? |
| 13549 | Moreover, who can say that a retreat commenced in the daylight in presence of an enterprising enemy may not become a rout? |
| 13549 | Or, on the contrary, is it a general science, forming one of the most essential parts of the art of war? |
| 13549 | Shall I be understood as saying that there are no such things as tactical rules, and that no theory of tactics can be useful? |
| 13549 | Shall I say also that in this kind of war, more than in any other, operations should be directed upon the communications of the enemy? |
| 13549 | Shall a theory be pronounced absurd because it has only three- fourths of the whole number of chances of success in its favor? |
| 13549 | Shall such an army be still more weakened by dividing it? |
| 13549 | Shall the fight be continued at all hazards until nightfall and the retreat executed under cover of the darkness? |
| 13549 | Should a forced march be made in the night, in order to get as much start of the enemy as possible? |
| 13549 | Since Napoleon''s direction of operations was so clearly fixed, what mattered it to him to know the details of their movements? |
| 13549 | The example of Wurmser, who prolonged the defense of Mantua, will be cited in opposition to this; but did not his army perish? |
| 13549 | The marches of Ulm and Jena were the same maneuvers; and what was Blücher''s march at Waterloo but an application of interior strategic lines? |
| 13549 | Was not General Moreau at the gates of Vienna when Fussen, Scharnitz, and all the Tyrol were in possession of the Austrians? |
| 13549 | Was not Napoleon at Piacenza when Turin, Genoa, and the Col- di- Tenda were occupied by the army of Mélas? |
| 13549 | Was not the salvation of Germany due to his concentric retreat? |
| 13549 | What change will it make in tactics? |
| 13549 | What conclusions shall be drawn from all that has been said? |
| 13549 | What man would not glory in assisting to bring to a conclusion the greatest trial of skill and strength ever seen between two great nations? |
| 13549 | What method of retreat shall be recommended? |

| 13549 | What must be the result of an operation which is but partially understood by the commander, since it is not his own conception? |
| 13549 | What service did one hundred thousand Vendeans and one hundred thousand Federalists do for the Coalition in 1793? |
| 13549 | What was the fate of the concentric columns of Wurmser and Quasdanovitch, wishing to reach the Mincio by the two banks of Lake Garda? |
| 13549 | What was the result? |
| 13549 | When the Archduke Charles gave way before the first efforts of the French armies in 1796, would he have saved Germany by an eccentric movement? |
| 13549 | Where were the imposing armies she afterward displayed? |
| 13549 | Will he be always free from prejudice? |
| 13549 | Would it be fair on that account to deny the influence of science and principles in ordinary affairs? |
| 13549 | Would it have placed Bonaparte at the head of the army of Italy, when he was known only by two directors? |
| 13549 | Would the same result have been witnessed if they had used columns of attack formed each of a single battalion doubled on the center? |
| 13549 | and how could he leave open one of these great valleys, thus risking every thing? |
| 13549 | and what more useful disposition could have been made of them than to protect the flanks of the invading army? |
| 13549 | how abandon Rheineck and the Saint- Gothard? |
| 13549 | how open the Valais and the approach by Berne, without surrendering the whole of Switzerland to the Coalition? |
| 13549 | or is it better to halt after a half- march and make a show of fighting again? |
| 13549 | to make a Saragossa of every walled town, to bring about, by way of reprisals, murder, pillage, and incendiarism throughout the country? |
| 16170 | But the_ means_ of instruction, say you, where are they to be found? 16170 Is it not_ certain_ that in future all war of maritime powers against the United States, will take a similar course? |
| 16170 | **** How would such a nation be protected from external attack, and entire subjugation? |
| 16170 | 114,622 35 1826 83,386 52 1827 and 1837 Warren, 20? |

| 16170 | And can you forget that these coy mistresses are only to be won by intelligence and good conduct?" |
| 16170 | And if it can not be foretold, how is that ubiquity to be imparted that shall always place our fleet in the path of the advancing foe? |

| 16170 | But where is the capital exactly so situated that we are ever likely to attack? |
| 16170 | Can it be said that the wars of the American Revolution and of 1812, were demoralizing in their effects? |

| 16170 | Does your bosom glow with the holy fervor of_ patriotism_? |
| 16170 | Even if it were a case of decided failure, would this single exception be sufficient to overthrow the weight of evidence on the other side? |

| 16170 | How far have we accomplished this object, and what will be the probable operations in case of another contest with a European power? |
| 16170 | How know which of these evolutions the enemy employs against him? |
| 16170 | How, then, are we to oppose the hostile force? |
| 16170 | If professional ignorance be a recommendation in our generals, why not also in our lawyers and our surgeons? |
