The ruler of France was then the  Emperor  Napoleon.  He  wished  to<br \/>make himself ruler of  the  whole  world.  With  his  armies  Napoleon  made<br \/>himself ruler over many lands, but he never ruled  Britian.  Why  was  this?<br \/>Britian was an island, and the ships of  the  British  navy  would  not  let<br \/>Napoleon and his In 1805 a great war was fought between the British and  the<br \/>armies cross the sea. The greatest of all the British sailors at  this  time<br \/>was Horatio Nelson.<br \/>      Nelson fought many times against the French ships. He was very  brave,<br \/>and when the ship was in battle, he was always to be seen on desk,  cheering<br \/>on his man. In one battle he was blinded in his right  eye;  in  another  he<br \/>lost his right arm; but he didn`t think of giving up.<br \/>      Nelson was kind and just, as well as brave. Once, when he saw  that  a<br \/>young boy who had jast joined the ship was  afraid  to  climb  up  the  tall<br \/>masts, he cried out; \u00ab \u0421ome along, I`ll race you to the top!\u00bb  In  the  race<br \/>to be the first the boy forgot his fear.<br \/>      \u201cThere, now,\u201d said Nelson when  the  two  were  at  the  top,  \u201cthat`s<br \/>nothing! You must learn to climb masts much higher than this!\u201d<br \/>      \u201cOur Nel,\u201d the man used to say, \u201cis as brave as lion,  and  as  gentle<br \/>as a lamb.\u201d<br \/>      Nelson`s great fight with the French  was  the  battle  of  Trafalgar,<br \/>which was fought near Cape Trafalgar on the coast  of  Spain.  Just  as  the<br \/>battle was about to begin, the signal flags were seen flying  on  the  masts<br \/>of Nelson`s ship, the  Victory.  This  was  the  signal  which  the  British<br \/>sailors read: England Expects That Every Man This Day Will Do His Duty.<br \/>      As the British ships  bore  down  on  the  French  line,  the  sailors<br \/>remembered Nelson`s message, and made up their minds to fight their  hardest<br \/>for their brave leader.<br \/>      Soon the battle was raging. The guns roared,  ships  crashed  together<br \/>and masts struck by gunfire fell with a  thud  to  the  decks.  Through  the<br \/>noise and the smoke the captains and officers shouted  their  commands,  the<br \/>sailors toiled at the guns and the ships` boys ran to and  fro  with  powder<br \/>and shot.<br \/><br \/>Nelson, on the Victory, was on deck as usual. His men could  pick  him  out,<br \/>even through the smoke, by the four stars which  shone  upon  his  blue  and<br \/>white coat. These four stars were the cause of his death. A man  on  one  of<br \/>the enemy ships saw them and fired. Nelson was struck on  the  shoulder  and<br \/>was carried below to die.<br \/>      Already the British were winning the fight. Nelson heard  cheer  after<br \/>cheer from his men, as one enemy ship after  another  was  captured.  Before<br \/>long one of his officers brought word that the battle was won.<br \/>      Two hours later the gallant sailor  died.  With  his  last  breath  he<br \/>said: \u201cThank God, I have done my duty!\u2019<br \/><br \/><br \/><br \/>   Admiral Horatio Nelson won several brilliant victories over  the  French<br \/>   Navy near the coast of Egypt, at Copenhagen, and finally near Spain,  at<br \/>   Trafalgar, in 1805, where he destroyed the French-Spanish fleet . Nelson<br \/>   was himself killed,  but  became  one  of  Britain`s  greatest  national<br \/>   heroes. His words before the battle of Trafalgar, \u201cEngland Expects  That<br \/>   Every Man Will Do His Duty\u201d, have remained a reminder of patriotic  duty<br \/>   in time  of national danger.<br \/><\/pre>\n<div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>the Great Sailor \u201c?????? ??????? ?????? &#8211; \u201c ????? ??????French.
