The
French attack with four corps in a final attempt to win the campaign
At
Talavera three French corps attack and three Spanish corps defend
The
Spanish keep possession of the city and win the battle
The
French lost 5300 casualties and five brigades in rout
The
Spanish lost 4000 casualties and two brigades in rout
At
Las Vantas one French corps attacks one Spanish corps
This
is part of the attack, but fought as a separate battle
The
result is a draw
The
French have lost 2000 infantry and have two brigades in rout
The
Spanish have lost 1200 infantry and 200 gunners and their artillery is in rout
The
Failure of the French to take Talavera means that they have lost this phase of
the campaign.
