http://napnuts.smugmug.com/gallery/2362337_6FJhb/ Fuentes des Onoro May 5 1811: Attempting to relieve the siege of Alameda and free General Brenier and his 3000 men, French Marshal Massena has decided to attack again today, despite yesterday's bloody repulse at Fuentes des Onoro. Mistakenly believing that Massena would again make a frontal assault Wellington kept the bulk of his forces in and behind the town of Fuentes des Onoro, with the newly arrived seventh division on his right, to guard against a diversionary attack from that area. Marshal Massena had realized he could not take the town by direct action alone and being informed of how far the seventh was from the bulk of Wellington's army decided to drive into the gap between the two destroy the seventh, then launch another direct assault on Fuenters des Onoro while also sweeping North and West from Pozo Bello, taking all the bridges over the Turones, driving the British up to Alameda (which Brennier was holding) then crush them against the bend of the Coa River. http://www.smugmug.com/img/feed-icon.png NapNutsGames Wed, 30 Nov -001 00:00:00 -0800 Tue, 16 Jan 2007 22:29:50 -0800 http://www.smugmug.com/ Copyright 2009, the copyright holder of each photograph.
