苏尔特在勒费弗尔下当参谋长,表现可以说是智勇双全。

At the battle of Fleurus, in 1794, he was chief of the staff under Lefebvre, and there exhibited that admirable coolness and penetration in the hour of danger which afterward made him so conspicuous as a military leader. General Marceau commanded the right of the army, and his division at Ardennes was hurled back by a charge of the enemy and thrown into disorder. Marceau, in despair, hurried to Soult and asked for four battalions to help him restore the combat. But the latter saw he could not grant his request without endangering Lefebvre's division, and refused. Marceau, in the agony and confusion of the moment, threatened to shoot himself if he was not aided. Soult told him to be calm and steady. "Rally your men to the charge," said he, "and the four battalions shall come as soon as possible." The words were scarcely out of his month before Prince Coburg was on him like a rolling torrent, and Soult was in a moment in the thickest of the fight. After the battle was over Marceau sought him out, and generously begged his pardon for his rudeness and praised him for his valor. |
