Battle of Redon (1815)

Part of the Napoleonic Wars

The Battle of Redon, fought on June 4, 1815, was a significant clash during the Chouannerie of 1815, where the royalist Chouan forces led by Louis de Sol de Grisolles attacked the town of Redon. Despite their numerical advantage of 4,000–5,000 troops against a small Imperial garrison of 120 men, the Chouans could not capture the town due to their lack of artillery and withdrew after intense fighting.
