Napoleon’s Grande Armée did not expect the cold climate in Russia to be so brutal. The French soldiers were also starving because the routes to supply were too long and difficult. Napoleon thought initially that he would quickly destroy the Russian army , but these constantly slipped away so the French army had to catch up with them in that vast and outstretched land.
In result of wet conditions and also poor hygiene, a lot of the soldiers would suffer from 'trench foot'. hope this helped :)
