Battle of Perpignan (1793)
The Battle of Perpignan or Battle of Niel on 17 July 1793 saw the French Army of the Eastern Pyrenees led by Louis-Charles de Flers defending against an offensive by the Spanish Army of Catalonia commanded by Antonio Ricardos. The French turned back the Spanish attacks and forced their opponents to pull back. Perpignan is now the capital of Pyrénées Orientales department, but in 1793 was the chief city of Rousillon province. The action was fought during the War of the Pyrenees, part of the War of the First Coalition.
==Background==
Captain General Ricardos and his Spanish army defeated the French in a skirmish at Céret on 20 April 1793.〔Smith (1998), 45〕 The Spanish beat Louis-Charles de Flers and the Army of the Eastern Pyrenees at the Battle of Mas Deu on 19 May. After this success, Ricardos turned back and invested the Fort de Bellegarde.〔Smith (1998), 46〕 The Siege of Bellegarde lasted from 23 May until 24 June when the French garrison's 1,450 survivors capitulated.〔Smith (1998), 48〕 During the siege, the Spanish army captured the Fort de Bains on 3 June and the Fort de la Garde on 5 June. These were outworks of Bellegarde.〔Smith (1998), 47〕 While the Spanish reduced Bellegarde, de Flers was busy trying to turn his raw recruits into soldiers. He was able to secure the services of trained coastal gunners to man his artillery. He had a number of field fortifications built to defend the area.〔Rickard, ''Perpignan''〕
