Stretching before them， as far as th，<br >eye could see， was the broad and fertile Alsatian plain. Th~<br >day before， August 5， 1870， another Riesling day， they ha~<br >marched from Belfort through Mulhouse in their blue coats， re~<br >pantaloons， and white gaiters to the cheers of the people. Thes~<br >soldiers belonged to a division of the French Army s Seventt<br >Corps under the command of General F$1ix Douay. The Genera<br >did not know then that his older brother had just lost his divi<br >sion and his life in a surprise attack at Wissembourg by Prussian<br >troops under the command of the Crown Prince. F61ix Douay s<br >orders were to thrust one division toward the frontier above<br >Mulhouse where a massive Prussian breakthrough was reported.<br > When the junior o~cers under General Douay heard the<br >tragic news of the Prussian victory， they shrugged it off as a<br >fluke and exhorted their men to ready kits and oil chassepots.<br >
