| - Mont-Saint-Jean escarpment. He could not capture Hougoumont but inflicted a defeat so great (about 15,000 to his 6,500) that the position was no longer tenable and Wellington ordered a retreat from Hougoumont. On Napoleon’s flank, Grouchy manages to destroy Blucher’s army and leaves Blucher with only 3,200 men when he joined up with Wellington. Grouchy managed to link up with Napoleon, giving Napoleon 25,000 much needed men and 76 cannons. With those reinforcements, Napoleon managed to destroy Wellington’s and Blucher’s army at Waterloo and march on to Brussels. The Coalition, except Britain, voted to a peace treaty because they did not want to get invaded again by Napoleon. The Allies and Napoleon then went to Namur and discussed the peace terms. These were the terms: 1.) 1. Napoleon shall be recognized as the legitimate ruler of France and no other government shall be able to change that without the support of the French people. 2. A cease-fire shall occur immediately after the ratification of the terms. 3. The ex-King Louis XIII shall be tried in France under a fair court and shall be punished by the French people according to his crimes. 4. The French shall pay half of the costs of reparations for all the invaded Allied powers. Likewise, the Allies shall pay half of the reparations in Italy and in the territories west of the Rhine, excluding Spain. 5. France shall be free to join and make any alliances without direct influence from other countries. The same shall be applied to other countries. 6. France’s borders shall be set to Revolutionary borders. The terms were ratified on July 16, 1815.
