| The Fusiliers at the Battle of Albuera by David Rowlands. The Duke of Wellington while besieging the fort of Badajoz was told of an approaching French Amy of 23,000 troops under Marshal Nicholas Soult. The Duke of Wellington despatched General William Beresford with a force of 6,000 British troops and 24,000 Spanish troops who took up position overlooking the village of Albuera. The French attacked on the morning of the 16th May, Marshal Soult launched a feint attack on Beresfords left flank, while his main force attacked Beresfords right flank. The Spanish troops were overwhelmed by French musketry and a cavalry charge, at this point the British second division were brought from the other flank to stop the attack. It was here that the Middlesex regiment, 57th of Foot, lost a total of 423 men from their force of 575 and at this battle earned the nickname the Die-Hards. The allied forces were saved when the British and Portuguese reserves were brought forward and charged uphill against the French force. The French force were able to retire in good order but were unable to relieve the siege at Badajoz. This British victory had a heavy price as out of 6,000 troops only 1,500 were not wounded.

After two attempts to take the Capital of Berlin, Napoleon withdrew his

planning to use Leipzig situated on the River Elster as his forward
command base. At this time the combined allied forces were moving
towards Leipzig. The Prussian force under General Blucher from Wartenburg
where he had arrived on the 3rd October 1813. The Austrian
Force under the command of Prince Karl von Schwarzenberg approached from
Dresdon to the south of Leipzig. The third Force under the command of The
Swedish crown Prince Jean Bernadotte.( It is interesting to learn that
Bernadotte had once been a French Marshal) He approached with his army from
the North of Leipzig. The French Army had a total of 122,000
men at Leipzig with another 53,000 still to arrive . The Battle started on the 16th of October with a Russian assault under the
command of General Mikhail Barclay de Tolly. The Russian assault of78,000
did not break the southern French defenses and the attack petered out.
Giving the French time to counter attack which drove back the Russian
army. The Nightfall the french had held their position after
two attacks one on each flank. On the 17th their was little fighting
instead Napoleon had time to bring his force upto full strength as the
other 53,000 men managed to withdraw into Leipzig. The allies took swelled
their ranks as all three armies occupied the area around Leipzig and on
the 18th The full strength armies of thre allies totalling some
355,000 men Launched a huge attack on all French
fortifications These huge assaults gained little ground as the
fench held their positions. Napoleon knew that he army could not hold off
such a large force for long and during the night withdrew most of his
force across the Elstere towards the town of Erfurt. Unfortunately
for Napoleon His rearguard force of some 20,000 men were cut off when the
only bridge across the river Elster was blown up before they could
cross. The French casualties were 38,000 Killed or wounded plus a
total of 30,000 taken prisoner which included many thousands who had been
