Wellington considered the farm of La Haye Sainte a strategic point of the British army’s defensive line. In the afternoon, Napoleon ordered Marshal Ney to launch the assault on the farm to obtain a significant outpost. The farm was strenuously defended by Allied troops, that had fortified the buildings since the morning. The French Imperial Guard started the assault, but it was too late. Prussian troops leaded by Gebhard Leberecht von Blucher joined the battle to support British Army. The French attack was repulsed. Napoleon was defeated and returned to France
