The Battle of Montijo was fought on 26 May 1644, in Montijo, Spain, between Portuguese and Spanish forces. Although the battle ended with a Portuguese victory,〔George Henry Townsend, ''The manual of dates: a dictionary of reference to all the most important events in the history of mankind to be found in authentic records'' Routledge, Warne, & Routledge, (1862) , ''1644.The Spaniards are defeated at the battle of Montijo.'' p.689〕〔Glenn Joseph Ames, ''Renascent empire?: the House of Braganza and the quest for stability in Portuguese monsoon Asia c.1640-1683'' Amsterdam University Press (2000) ISBN 90-5356-382-2, ''The most notable Portuguese victories came at Montijo (1644) and Arronches (1653).'' p.23〕 the Spanish saw it as a strategic success as they claimed to have prevented Matias de Albuquerque from capturing Badajoz,〔 despite Albuquerque having no intention of attacking the city.〔Ângelo Ribeiro, p.56, p.59〕〔Ericeira, p.51〕〔Santos, Selvagem, p.398〕
==Background==
Portuguese General Matias de Albuquerque knew the Spanish were commanded by the Marquis of Torrecusa, a renowned military tactician, and wanted to affirm his own presence. He managed to gather 6,000 infantry, 1,100 cavalry and 6 cannons, in order to give battle. He crossed the frontier attacking, pillaging and burning Vilar del Rey, Puebla and Boca de Manfarete until reaching the town of Montijo, which surrendered without a fight.〔
