If u are smart at history plz me. thx what did napoleon discover when he reached moscow? moscow was burning, russian soldiers wanted to destroy anything the french could use russian soldiers filled the streets of moscow, defending the city moscow fought back against napoleon, forcing him to turn around moscow welcomed napoleon, because the tsar was a cruel ruler

Moscow was burning. The Russians had burned everything Napoleon could've used. This was known as the "Scorched Earth" tactic, and was later used by the Russians against the Nazis during Operation Barbarossa.
