They didn’t beat Napoleon. It was more like Napoleon cutting his losses because he had his hands full with Europe. If France really wanted to, they could have crushed the slave rebellion.

Napolean sent 30,000 soldiers to Haiti and that army was defeated. The Haitians sure as hell beat Napolean. And it was a terrible defeat for the French. They would soon lose their entire foothold on the American continent.
