Battle of Ostrołęka (1807) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Battle of Ostrołęka (1807)
The Battle of Ostrołęka was fought on 16 February 1807 between First French Empire troops under General of Division Anne Jean Marie René Savary and Russian soldiers under Lieutenant General Ivan Essen.〔Markham, p. 146〕 The French defeated the Russians and forced them to retreat to the east to Wyoki Mazowiecki.〔Petre, p. 215〕 Weather conditions caused both sides to go into winter quarters immediately after the battle, which occurred during the War of the Fourth Coalition, part of the Napoleonic Wars. Ostrołęka is located in the northeast part of modern Poland, but in 1807 it belonged to the Kingdom of Prussia. == Context == ''See Battle of Mohrungen and Battle of Eylau articles.'' Savary was "in command of the 5th corps" "on the extreme French right" so as "to guard the approaches to Warsaw by the Narew and Bug, and to cover the right rear of the movement northwards".〔Petre, p. 213〕 After the French were "driven out of Ostrow" "on the 3rd February", "Savary received orders to abandon Brok and retire upon Ostrolenka, so as to strengthen his communication with the Emperor's army."〔Petre, p. 214〕 "Essen was ordered by Bennigsen to drive back Savary, who, at the same time, had made up his mind to assume the offensive".〔Petre, p. 214〕 Essen, with "25,000 men, advanced to Ostrolenka on the 15th, along the two banks of the Narew".〔Markham, p. 146〕 Savary "decided to hold Ostrolenka on the defensive" "on the 15th February", "leaving 3 brigades" on the "low hills outside Ostrolenka" flanked by "batteries on the opposite bank", whilst he "assumed the offensive" "on the morning of the 16th" "against the Russian force coming down the right bank"〔Petre, p. 215〕
