1 It was a convoy of conscripts enrolled from our people and starting to join the army.
2 Behind the caleche galloped the suite and a convoy of Croats.
3 As often happens, the horses of a convoy wagon became restive at the end of the bridge, and the whole crowd had to wait.
4 At one of the post stations he overtook a convoy of Russian wounded.
5 Wishing to find out where the commander-in-chief was, he rode up to a convoy.
6 He had just remembered his recent encounter with the doctor's wife and the convoy officer.
7 Pierre's coachman shouted angrily at the convoy of wounded to keep to one side of the road.
8 He was looking now at the cavalry regiment that had met the convoy of wounded, now at the cart by which he was standing, in which two wounded men were sitting and one was lying.
9 He said that Murat was spending the night less than a mile from where they were, and that if they would let him have a convoy of a hundred men he would capture him alive.
10 the convoy guards began cursing and the French soldiers, with fresh virulence, drove away with their swords the crowd of prisoners who were gazing at the dead man.
11 Having arranged matters thus, Denisov and Dolokhov intended, without reporting matters to the higher command, to attack and seize that convoy with their own small forces.
12 They reckoned that the convoy had fifteen hundred men.
13 A pleasant feeling of excitement and an expectation of something joyful and solemn was aroused among the soldiers of the convoy and the prisoners.
14 He may be stern; he may be exacting; he may be ambitious yet; but his is the sternness of the warrior Greatheart, who guards his pilgrim convoy from the onslaught of Apollyon.
15 At the head and in the rear of the convoy rode mounted gendarmes, serious and with sword in fist.
