A history of the Peninsular War, Vol. 1, 1807-1809

Note 312 — SECTION V: CHAPTER II

Reading edition

The numbers of these corps before the fighting commenced in June had been:

Goulas’s Brigade (three batts.) 2,574

Nicolas’s Brigade (four batts.) 2,891

Two Italian battalions 1,300

3rd Provisional Cuirassiers 409

2nd Neapolitan Chasseurs 388

Artillery 250

7,812

But as the Italians, Goulas, and the cuirassiers had all been engaged several times, and had suffered serious losses, we must deduct 800 men at least, in order to get the figures of July 17. Foy gives only 6,000.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
