Old text for campaign in Italy

Napoleon organized a new army and marched through Switzerland into northern Italy, entering Milan in May. Meanwhile, though, Genoa surrendered to the Austrians on June 4. Austrian general Melas had advanced past Nice toward Provence, but, finding Napoleon in between his headquarters in Turin and his supply lines to Austria, he moved rapidly to meet Napoleon, taking him by surprise at Marengo on June 14. Napoleon was nearly defeated in a tough battle in the morning and early afternoon, but Melas, thinking he had already won, allowed his army to grow overextended, and Napoleon called in reinforcements to rout Melas in the evening.
