It was a tactical error because he retreated into a peninsula which basically meant that there was no escape for him and his people so he got trapped and caught. He couldn't go further back because there was water and he had enemies coming from the continental mass so his entrapment was inevitable.

Why did it benefit Germany to form alliances that isolated France?
harkovskaia [24]
I believe this is the answer:
It was feared that France would get allies (particularly Russian ones) so in order to prevent that Germany became Allies with 2 other countries to isolate France. This allowed Bismark, who had the idea, to continue with his plans.
Hope this helps.
