He retired from the royalist army, a sergeant in 1787 but returned in 1792, elected a lieutenant-colonel in a republican regiment. By 1799 he had risen to general de division and was given the command of the elite grenadier division before Austerlitz. He was elevated to the rank of Marshal in 1809. He was wounded twice during the Russian campaign and three times during the 1813-14 campaign. He did not, however, rejoin Napoleon during the Waterloo campaign and remained loyal to the Bourbons who rewarded him by making him commander of the Royal Guard.
