Bismarck's Strategy and Jeai0nsy-

Chacellor is made to appear as though he thought
himself possessed of some capacity as q military
s~trategist. Indeed, this impression IL represented
as being so strong with him that be ventured to
differ very decidedly in judgment with Baror Won
Moltke. His own words are: After the l4hIe
OF W0ertn, WDen tue army emerged frOIU the
Vosges and marched toward Chaloas, where the
cavalry under Prince Albrecht stood. Genera E Ia

rest OF France, which should then be overruo ~
quickly as possible"
