Napoleon at the Battle of Jena, 14 October 1806, (19th century). The Battle of Jena in Germany began with the chance evening meeting of Marshal Lannes' corps with a Prussian force of 35,000 men under General Friedrich Hohenloe. Napoleon Bonaparte (1769-1821) ordered a general advance and within two hours the exhausted Prussians gave way, fleeing the field and trying to avoid the sabres of Marshal Murat's horsemen.
