Event during the War of the Pyrenees

The First Battle of Boulou saw a Republican French army led by Eustache Charles d'Aoust attack a Spanish Royal army commanded by Antonio Ricardos. Despite winning a recent victory over the French, Ricardos fell back to the Tech River valley where he had his troops construct a fortified camp. On 3–4 October, the Spanish army successfully defended its camp at Le Boulou against several French assaults.
