November 1813 – November 2020

November 1813 – cold winds swept over the IJssel River in November 1813, when the 1rst Regiment of Bashkir troops pitched their bivouac in the village of Wijhe. The Low Countries were suffering under French rule. A month earlier, Napoleon was defeated at Leipzig and the Allied forces chased the French back to France. In their pursuit of Napoleon, the IJssel River proved to be a major obstacle. By building a Ship-bridge between both river shores, these courageous horsemen, who had made their way from the foothills of the Ural mountains, could continue their victorious campaign for the liberation of the Netherlands from French occupation.
