With the outbreak of the Patriotic War of 1812, Klupfel from the Institute of Railway Engineers joined the cadet in the Life Guards Dragoon Regiment and was awarded the Military Order insignia for military distinction in the battle of Polotsk and was promoted to ensign on August 6. Klupfel then took part in all the battles waged by the Wittgenstein corps and the exile of Napoleon , and in the foreign campaigns of 1813-1814 he participated in the battles at Dresden , Kulm (for this battle the German emperor awarded him with a special Iron Cross ), Leipzig , Montmiral , Fer- Champenoise and Paris . Among the awards he received for the war against Napoleon were the orders of St. Anne of the 4th degree and St. 4th degree Vladimir with a bow.
