Well actually, Napoleon spoke Corsican as his mother language, and was known for speaking French with a very thick accent. So I guess it would be more accurate to have Napoleon speak in either French or English with a thick Italian-ish accent. Let's just stick with English.

I mean just use a French accent.
or have them just speak with their regular accents if you don't care. Having them be specifically putting on British accents just seems weird considering they are fighting the British....Will the Russian soldiers all be sporting British accents as well?
People do stories in English with location proper accents all the time. Nothing wrong with that. Joaqiun Phoenix can't try on a French accent?
