The Forces

The Austrian, Prussian and Russian armies were joined together and put under the command of Field Marshall Prince Karl von Schwarzenberg, but the driving force behind the army was the Russian Tsar and King of Prussia moving with the army. The allied army totaled about 100,000 troops. Napoleon had left his brother Joseph Bonaparte and Auguste Marmont in defense of Paris with about 20,000 regular troops along with an additional 30,000 National and Imperial Guards.
