Battle of Lodi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Battle of Lodi is often depicted as the place that Napoleon's soldiers started calling him "the Little Corporal" because of his taking charge of cannons in the middle of the battle. There is no hard evidence of this, however, and it seems like some lovers of the Napoleonic legend were in a hurry to awaken the muses of warfare with respect to almost making Napoleon mythical in the various military battles, campaigns, and smaller outings in what would later be called Italy.
