Tuhia he tomokanga mo tenei irava - I haere tonu ia ki te mahi ki te rohe o Tiamana i raro i a Louis Lazare Hoche, Charles Pichegru me Jean Victor Marie Moreau, i whara tonu, i kotahi ano (i te tau 1795) i mauheretia i muri i te whara ano. Ko ia te ringa matau o André Masséna puta noa i te pakanga o Switzerland o 1799, i te tuatahi hei rangatira o te wehenga, katahi ka noho hei rangatira o nga kaimahi, a ka wikitoria i te rereketanga nui i te Pakanga Tuarua o Zurich
He aha? I noho ia i raro i a Massena i te Siege o Genoa, a, i tino rongonui ia i te Pakanga o Monzambano i whakawhiwhia ai e Napoleon ki a ia he hoari honore (he tohu tino onge i whakakapia i muri mai e te Légion d'Honneur). I whakawhiwhia ia ki te kaitiaki-nui o nga hoia hiko, a, i te whakaturanga o te rangatiratanga, i whakawhiwhia ki te Grand Cross o te Legion of Honour, engari kaore i whakauruhia ki te hanganga tuatahi o nga marshals.
