The troops were running in such a dense mass that once surrounded

by them it was difficult to get out again. One was shouting, "Get

on! Why are you hindering us?" Another in the same place turned

round and fired in the air; a third was striking the horse

Kutuzov himself rode. Having by a great effort got away to the

left from that flood of men, Kutuzov, with his suite diminished

by more than half, rode toward a sound of artillery fire near by.

Having forced his way out of the crowd of fugitives, Prince

Andrew, trying to keep near Kutuzov, saw on the slope of the hill

amid the smoke a Russian battery that was still firing and

Frenchmen running toward it. Higher up stood some Russian

infantry, neither moving forward to protect the battery nor

backward with the fleeing crowd. A mounted general separated

himself from the infantry and approached Kutuzov. Of Kutuzov's

suite only four remained. They were all pale and exchanged looks

in silence.
