The IV Corps of the Grande Armée was a military unit during the Napoleonic Wars. It consisted several different units and commanders. == Under Soult == Marshal Nicolas Soult took command of IV Corps in 1805.〔Chandler, 417.〕 IV Corps formed part of the extended center of the French line at the Battle of Austerlitz in December 1805.〔Chandler, 31.〕 On the 2nd, Napoleon ordered Soult to attack the Pratzen Heights, from which the Allies had been attacking the French right wing. Repeated attacks from the Russians under General Kutusov almost collapsed IV Corps' line, but aid from Bernadotte's I Corps allowed the French to maintain their control of the Heights. The survivors then moved south and enveloped Buxhowden's column, sending the Allies into a retreat.〔Chandler, 35.〕 IV Corps formed the right wing of the French line at the Battle of Jena in October 1806.〔〔Chandler, 215.〕 At Eylau in February 1807, IV Corps was beaten back by the Russian army under Generals Tutchkov and Dokhturov.〔Chandler, 146〕 In 1808 Soult was transferred to Spain, where he took command of II Corps in the Peninsular War.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「IV Corps (Grande Armée)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
