Whakakiia te rerenga e whai ake nei: I te tau 1870, i te Pakanga o Wīwī-Prussian, i whakahau a Failly i te 5th Corps. Ko tana kore mahi i Bitche i te 6 o Akuhata i te wa i patua ai te 1st Corps i tona taha matau me te 2nd Corps i tona taha maui i nga pakanga o Wörth me
Ko Spicheren, i puta ai te riri nui rawa atu i Parani. I whakahau a Failly i te parirau matau o te "Army of Châlons" a Marshal de Mac-Mahon i te pakanga o Sedan, a ko te mutunga kino o taua pakanga i tukuna ki nga tikanga a Failly, ahakoa kaore ia i te he atu i era atu rangatira French. I whakaekehia a Failly me tana 5th Corps i Beaumont i te 30 o Akuhata 1870 e nga roopu e rua i arahina e George o Saxony. I roto i tenei pakanga i ohorere nga French i roto i o raatau puni ka peia ki Mouzon. Ko te hinganga i kati i te huarahi rerenga ki te tonga ka akiaki i te French "Army of Châlons" ki te rohe Belgian me te karapoti i Sedan. I mauheretia ia e nga Prussians i Sedan i te Mahuru 2, engari i tukuna i etahi marama i muri mai.
