You know, that in recent years which makes writing this weekly page, use it to pay bills or to break lances in favor of certain people or characters that had some relevance to our past history, as in the case of that deal today, so does our present. Since politicians and politically correct history books do not mention them nor ever mentioned or above. I feel obliged, to do with them, a little justice.
The invention of which we speak today, is widely used. In fact, I play my Asterix collection to each of you, have one at home. To begin, I will offer an outline history, so that the reader can take care of the situation where we are, and can be put on. Rest assured that I will not give a history lesson. Let us place ourselves
. 1812, while the troops of Napoleon Bonaparte horns are left trying to gain total control of Spain you do not succeed, "le petit bastard, he decided that his enormous ego, would not be covered with the control of the Iberian Peninsula therefore also wanted to seize power in Russia. And there he stood. The case is that when Czar Alexander I of Russia, wanted to realize the Napoleonic army, the largest made to date in the old continent, crossed the Niemen River and was put towards Moscow. So hard, the Tsar, represented by its commander in chief Barclay, mobilized its army, infinitely smaller in number than the Frenchman, deploying on the border of Russian Poland. The commander in chief
Barclay, despite pressure from his superiors, at no time attacked the Empire's army, knowing full well the futility of such tactics, it was impossible to beat Europe's largest army in the open, and It decided to create a strong defense, defense, on the other hand did not help, "for the soldiers of the little big man, he was interning at a rapid pace in Russia. Gradually, the Gauls were coming into the depths of the Russian winter. They soon realized, that their clothing paraphernalia, Low served in those lands. And to top it off, which meant a quick campaign on Moscow, was becoming an endless siege again soon. The soldiers could not be surveyed, with more than 300,000 of its peers, even fighting in Spain, trying to make the city of Cadiz, among others, are being reversed. Furthermore, among the combined deaths in battle and those produced by cold, had to add a huge famine that became perennial after months of confrontation. The food brought from their own land or satellite states of the Empire, arrived frozen or rotten. And here's what we want. Displaying
Napoleon as time and again their efforts to supply food to the troops, was hampered, some for over time and others on the weather, made the decision to set off with 12,000 francs to anyone who was capable of finding a method to keep food in perfect condition for a long time and in adverse weather.
Here's our man, a French inventor, who like any good inventor of the time malvivía of his inventions and ate what the villagers had to give it, "got down to work. This guy, named Nicholas Appert, after many trials and many cabals, he realized that by keeping food in airtight glass containers and putting them in hot water, they are completely sealed, which allowed transport and store, in perfect consumption over a long period of time. Hard, I informed the Emperor, who appreciated not only gave the 12,000 francs agreed upon, but also named him "Benefactor of Humanity." Years later, José Casado glass replaced by tin, which also retained the product of light-but that's another subject.
The truth is that the invention serves more today than they served the soldiers of Napoleon, for months after that, went to Moscow, where they found a devastated city, burning like a torch, and no a sad currency burst into his pocket. For the Russians, looking cornered, she fled, but obliterating it before, so that the gringos do not remove it, avoiding the soldiers of the Empire could shelter in the city and go on from there to the invasion. Therefore, seeing that the Russians showed no surrender and feeling as he approached the harsh winter of the Russian steppe, Napoleon decided to return. Decimated, walk and members of many of their soldiers or about to be frozen, became an easy target for Russian Cossacks, who spent a knife to a large number of French when they tried to cross the river Bezerina. Being thus completely expelled from Russian soil, and placing a heavy burden on Napoleon's intentions to dominate Europe. Losa, soon to increase their weight loss after the war in English territory.
