Battle of La Brossinière
The Battle of La Brossinière or Battle of la Gravelle (French - ''la "besoigne" de la Brossinière'') was a battle of the Hundred Years' War on 26 September 1423. It occurred at La Brossinière (commune of Bourgon, Mayenne), between the forces of England and France, shortly after hostilities had resumed, following the battle of Agincourt (1415).
The English force commanded by Sir John De la Pole, brother of William de la Pole, Earl of Suffolk, which had returned to Normandy after a pillaging expedition to Anjou and Maine, suffered a crushing defeat. Cousinot reports that "there were great deeds of arms done"〔Cousinot (1859), p.217 "il y eut de grandes vaillances d'armes faites".〕 and that the English "were beaten in the field and there were fourteen to fifteen hundred killed" 〔Cousinot (1859),p.217 "furent desconfits au champ et y en eut de quatorze à quinze cent de tuez..."〕
==The English attack==
The battle of Agincourt had been particularly damaging for the nobility of the region. After this battle, the English regent John, Duke of Bedford, given the titles of Duke of Anjou and Count of Maine, ordered a systematic conquest, though this was not effected without resistance.
In September 1423, John de la Pole left Normandy with 2000 soldiers and 800 archers to go raiding in Maine and Anjou. He seized Segré, and there mustered a huge collection of loot and a herd of 1,200 bulls and cows, before setting off to return to Normandy, taking hostages as he went.
