Excerpt describing Peterson, Michael Gordon
Only when Bennigsen entered the hut did Kutuzov move out of his corner and move towards the table, but so much so that his face was not illuminated by the candles placed on the table.Bennigsen opened the council with the question: “Should we leave the sacred and ancient capital Russia or defend it? A long and general silence followed. All faces frowned, and in the silence one could hear Kutuzov’s angry grunting and coughing. All eyes were looking at him. Malasha also looked at her grandfather. She was closest to him and saw how his face wrinkled: he was definitely about to cry. But this did not last long.
– The sacred ancient capital of Russia! - he suddenly spoke, repeating Bennigsen’s words in an angry voice and thereby pointing out the false note of these words. - Let me tell you, Your Excellency, that this question makes no sense for a Russian person. (He leaned forward with his heavy body.) Such a question cannot be asked, and such a question has no meaning. The question for which I asked these gentlemen to gather is a military question. The question is: “The salvation of Russia is in the army. Is it more profitable to risk the loss of the army and Moscow by accepting a battle, or to give up Moscow without a battle? This is the question I want to know your opinion on.” (He rocked back into his chair.)
The debate began. Bennigsen did not yet consider the game lost. Admitting the opinion of Barclay and others about the impossibility of accepting a defensive battle near Fili, he, imbued with Russian patriotism and love for Moscow, proposed transferring troops at night from the right to the left flank and striking the next day on the right wing of the French. Opinions were divided, there were disputes in favor and against this opinion. Ermolov, Dokhturov and Raevsky agreed with Bennigsen’s opinion. Whether guided by a sense of need for sacrifice before leaving the capital or by other personal considerations, these generals did not seem to understand that the present council could not change the inevitable course of affairs and that Moscow had already been abandoned. The rest of the generals understood this and, leaving aside the question of Moscow, talked about the direction that the army should have taken in its retreat. Malasha, who, without taking her eyes off, looked at what was happening in front of her, understood the meaning of this advice differently. It seemed to her that it was only a matter of personal struggle between “grandfather” and “long-haired,” as she called Bennigsen. She saw that they were angry when they spoke to each other, and in her heart she sided with her grandfather. In the middle of the conversation, she noticed a quick sly glance thrown by her grandfather at Bennigsen, and after that, to her joy, she noticed that the grandfather, having said something to the long-haired man, besieged him: Bennigsen suddenly blushed and walked angrily around the hut. The words that had such an effect on Bennigsen were Kutuzov’s opinion expressed in a calm and quiet voice about the benefits and disadvantages of Bennigsen’s proposal: about transferring troops at night from the right to the left flank to attack the right wing of the French.
“I, gentlemen,” said Kutuzov, “cannot approve of the count’s plan.” Troop movements in close range are always dangerous from the enemy, and military history confirms this idea. So, for example... (Kutuzov seemed to be thoughtful, looking for an example and looking at Bennigsen with a bright, naive look.) But at least the Battle of Friedland, which, as I think the count remembers well, was... not entirely successful only because our troops were reforming at too close a distance from the enemy... - A moment of silence followed, which seemed to everyone to be very long.
The debate resumed again, but there were frequent breaks, and it was felt that there was nothing more to talk about.
During one of these breaks, Kutuzov sighed heavily, as if getting ready to speak. Everyone looked at him.
- Eh bien, messieurs! Je vois que c"est moi qui payerai les pots casses, [So, gentlemen, therefore, I have to pay for the broken pots," he said. And, slowly rising, he approached the table. "Gentlemen, I have heard your opinions." Some will disagree with me, but I (he stopped) by the power entrusted to me by my sovereign and fatherland, I order a retreat.
Following this, the generals began to disperse with the same solemn and silent caution with which they disperse after a funeral.
Some of the generals, in a quiet voice, in a completely different range than when they spoke at the council, conveyed something to the commander-in-chief.
Malasha, who had been waiting for dinner for a long time, carefully came down from the floor with her bare feet, clinging to the ledges of the stove with her bare feet, and, getting mixed up between the legs of the generals, slipped through the door.
Having released the generals, Kutuzov sat for a long time, leaning on the table, and kept thinking about the same terrible question: “When, when was it finally decided that Moscow was abandoned? When was what was done that resolved the issue, and who is to blame for this?”
“I didn’t expect this, this,” he said to Adjutant Schneider, who came to him late at night, “I didn’t expect this!” I didn't think that!
“You need to rest, Your Grace,” said Schneider.
- No! “They will eat horse meat like the Turks,” Kutuzov shouted without answering, hitting the table with his plump fist, “they too will, if only...
In contrast to Kutuzov, at the same time, in an event even more important than the retreat of the army without a fight, in the abandonment of Moscow and its burning, Rostopchin, who appears to us as the leader of this event, acted completely differently.
This event - the abandonment of Moscow and its burning - was as inevitable as the retreat of the troops without a fight for Moscow after the Battle of Borodino.
Every Russian person, not on the basis of conclusions, but on the basis of the feeling that lies in us and lay in our fathers, could have predicted what happened.
Starting from Smolensk, in all the cities and villages of the Russian land, without the participation of Count Rastopchin and his posters, the same thing happened that happened in Moscow. The people waited for the enemy with carelessness, did not rebel, did not worry, did not tear anyone to pieces, but calmly awaited their fate, feeling the strength within themselves to the fullest. Hard time find what was supposed to do. And as soon as the enemy approached, the richest elements of the population left, leaving their property; the poorest remained and set fire and destroyed what was left.
The consciousness that it will be so, and will always be so, lay and lies in the soul of the Russian person. And this consciousness and, moreover, the premonition that Moscow would be taken, lay in the Russian Moscow society of the 12th year. Those who began to leave Moscow back in July and early August showed that they were expecting this. Those who left with what they could seize, leaving their houses and half their property, acted this way due to that latent patriotism, which is expressed not by phrases, not by killing children to save the fatherland, etc. by unnatural actions, but which is expressed imperceptibly, simply, organically and therefore always produces the most powerful results.
The real name of the criminal is Michael Gordon Peterson. He was born on December 6, 1952 in Luton. His childhood was no different. The boy went to a regular school and hung out with his peers. There was no one in his family tragic events, there was no violence. There wasn’t even a friend who could influence a person’s psyche like that. Michael did well at school and was respectful of his elders. The boy had a lot of friends with whom he got along well. But one day, after the family moved to a new place of residence, the boy lost all his old friends. Michael's aunt believes that it all started when he fell in with the “wrong” company.

Psychical deviations
Bronson when he Once again was arrested for the crime and declared insane. He was sent to psychiatric clinic. He himself did not consider himself mentally ill at all and argued that he, a healthy and balanced person, was sent to a hospital in vain. Michael claimed that he was treated very poorly at the clinic. Antipsychotic drugs were forcibly administered, which almost always caused muscle spasms. He said that the clinic's medical staff beat him.Michael wrote letters of complaint incessantly. He often ran away from the ward and went to the roof of the building. The clinic workers could not remove the man from there for a long time, but when they removed him, they sent him to the ward and tied him up. Michael, recalling those times, said that he spent more time on the roof than Santa Claus himself. Perhaps the clinic staff got tired of running after their patient, and she recognized him as completely healthy.

About the author:
Charlie himself
Real name: Michael Gordon Peterson (Charles Bronson)
Place of Birth: Luton, Bedfordshire, England
But first things first. Let's start with interesting facts about this prisoner of an English prison:
- Charles Bronson didn't kill a single person, while spending more time in prison than most British serial killers.
- It all started in 1974, when Charles Bronson (then Michael Peterson) was arrested for robbery of £26. He was sentenced to seven years in prison, although he could be released after four years for good behavior. But due to a series of cruel and strange acts, he remains behind bars to this day, for more than 40 years.
- Since 1974 he visited more than 120 prisons across the UK, attacked more than 20 guards (and scores of prisoners), took 11 hostages and caused more than half a million pounds in damage.
- In 2007, Charles Bronson released a fitness book in which he described his usual prison workout called Solitary Fitness. It tells how you can get pumped up without special equipment, expensive sportswear or healthy food. Basically, it talks about how, after spending most of his life in solitary confinement, he became a mountain of muscle.
- Possesses superhuman strength, for example: he bent steel bars of a door with his bare hands and once set a world record for push-ups; he claims to do 2,000 of them daily. Among other things, his book describes another unusual technique, such as cleaning the nostrils with a string and cleaning the colon while sitting on a bowl of water by sucking up the water using the abdominal muscles. He also cleanses his stomach by swallowing strips of wet tissue and pulling them back out.
- Participated in a fight with a Rottweiler for £1000. After being free for only 69 days, he was arrested for attempted robbery.
- In 1994, Bronson took a security guard hostage and demanded a helicopter and an inflatable doll. After that, no other prison wanted to take him because of his reputation. The Hull boss gave him a chance and was willing to trust that Bronson would behave this time. Instead, Bronson took him hostage.
- In 1996, Charles Bronson captured two Iraqi terrorists and a prisoner after one of them accidentally bumped into him and did not apologize. He made them tickle his feet and call him “general.” Being a hostage probably wasn't easy. At one point, he tried to force them to hit him over the head with a heavy metal tray, and when they refused, he grabbed a blade and began cutting himself. This time his list of demands included an Uzi assault rifle, ammunition, a cheese sandwich and a helicopter to Cuba. If the demands were not met, he threatened to eat one of the prisoners. He got nothing and eventually gave up.
- In 2009, the life story of Charles Bronson was filmed, with Tom Hardy playing the role of Bronson himself. To better understand his character, Tom Hardy visited Bronson in prison several times, the actor describes him as "a very articulate, kind, funny and smart person." Although Hardy condemns Bronson's actions, he emphasizes that as an actor it is his responsibility to understand his character's character, not to judge it. Bronson really liked Tom Hardy, and the actor himself hopes that the prisoners liked his performance, otherwise he might be “rolled up in a carpet and sent to the bottom of the Thames.”
- In May 2014, he watched the FA Cup final between Arsenal and Hull and was enraged by the former's victory. He says he saw the ghost of Ronnie Kray, who told him to start a fight with the guards. So he stripped naked and anointed himself with oil to make it harder to grab; he attacked at least ten guards in full protective gear, breaking several of his ribs in the process.
Remember the great strongmen in history - for example, Evgeniy Sandow... did he torture his body? Sitting in solitary confinement, I gave up the opportunity to go to Gym, and I’m not allowed to train with other prisoners, so I’m always alone with myself. For one hour a day, I am allowed to train in the yard, which is a 6x9 meter area! This is my arena; I'm a Gladiator! I train under open sky rain, snow, wind and sun in any weather, six days a week (consistently) and it works: I am strong and powerful. IN in rare cases, when I am allowed to walk in the yard with the other prisoners, I cheer them up. I use their body weight as weights (with their permission, of course, and if it's not a guard). I also lift them on my back and run with them, two at a time. I squat with them, I bench press with them; bench press - for those who don't know - lying on your back, lift the weight from your chest up! So I'm strong, don't doubt it. My strength is legendary - I once picked up a prison guard and ran with him. Charles Bronson
