Disciplined and deadly Prussian musket fire at Waterloo, after a grueling 24 hour forced march, is what won the day against Napoleon. Not Wellington, who of course gets all the credit in these anti-German times.
@@antonmoric1469 If i hadn’t held my ground and retreated against the French there wouldn’t of been even a chance for the Prussians, incase you didn’t know. The Prussians had gotten defeated earlier, and while Wellington had more men by a few thousand men he did have less experienced men compared to Napoleon and he still managed to hold and fight till the last second.
The 1970 movie of Waterloo, the French Imperial Guard march sounds majestic. During the Napoleonic wars, regardless if Blucher was in the woods or not. The Germans and French had the majesty, and inspirational marches to fight for the fatherland und (lol) motherland. This is coming from a wiseass Cuban American.
@@JohnDoe-zu2cm There‘s something called: „Federal Republic of *Germany“* Please tell me you‘re not one of these crackheads who believe Germany has no government nor constitution and is just a multi-billion euro company…
As YT brought this image of Prussian and Austrian soldiers marching came to my mind. Frederick the Great vs Maria Theresia. Fredericus Rex vs Mater Castrorum
Most of those versions are actually played by Brits or Americans and have nothing to do with the German music tradition, the way of drumming is completely different also the instruments. Just the last marches are played by Germans and are accurate.
