This section of the river Agueda flows in a deep gorge with very steep banks & track only allowing for movement by foot & carriage by packhorse or donkey. Elements of the 1st/95th Rifles were stationed in the village from mid February 1810. The French brigade at San Felices de los Gallegos made numerous attempts to drive them out ending in a major attempt on the evening of 19th March. 600 volunteers backed by a further 1500 infantrymen launched an attack with a view to take the piquet by surprise. However, a warning shot was fired & the whole contingent turned out to drive the French down from the lip of the gorge that they had scaled. The action proved that the Baker rifle in capable hands was more than a match for the faster-loading musket even when heavily outnumbered.

(3/10) Battlefield II The Battle of the Crimea Ep8 World War II

Videos Running Time 01:41:00 in 10 Parts Battlefield II: The Battle of the Crimea” This episode of “Battlefield” chronicles the German Armys campaign in the Crimea. The campaign was conducted by the German 11th Army (XI), despite the incorrect map references to the 6th Army (VI). The Crimea was a thorn in the belly of Army Group Souths advance on Rostov. Hitler also believed the Crimea could act as an alternative invasion route into the Caucasus. The task of conquering the Crimea would fall on Gen. Erich von Manstein. Mansteins 11th Army would consist of 4 Corps. Thirty, 49th Mountain, 54th, and the 3rd Romanian Corps were all assigned to the 11th Army. The Soviet Union would assemble a force of 235000 men in various units. The Battle of the Crimea officially began on September 24th, 1941. Gen. Mansteins first objective was to break resistance and breakthrough the Isthmus of Perekop. This invasion route was an obvious choice, and a necessary entrance into the Crimea. Manstein had no choice but to fight a battle of attrition in this area. Manstein achieved a breakthrough on October 28th, 1941. The defenses of Sevastopol were extensive and well planned out. Three belts of defenses defended the approaches to the city. Manstein chose to center his offensive in the south. The Soviet defensive belt network was weaker in the south. However, the terrain was terrible. The offensive failed. As Manstein was closing on Sevastopol, the Soviets launched attacks across the Kerch
