It's entertaining but not historically accurate (British troops are implied to be good and France is implied to give half a shit about that theater, which wasnt the case in reality)

British infantry was relatively well drilled and trained in the long 18th century, the memes about live fire training from Sharpe being an exception were true.

The British army was pure garbage
It got kicked from the Netherlands Dunkirk-style by the French three times in 1795, 1799 and 1809
In the Peninsular theater, they retreated back to Portugal each time they met a matching French force on their path
Wellington only started to advance in late 1812 (although he had been there since 1808) when the French were so focused on the shit in Eastern Europe they couldnt afford caring about Spain anymore
Here's a great video on the Peninsular War
Notice how many times Wellington retreats to Portugal
