Victory near Brihuega contested by French and Allies
London Gazette reports mixed French and Milanese accounts of a battle near Brihuega. Stanhope’s English column was engaged by the Dukes of Anjou and Vendôme, with Stanhope surrendering after a fierce defense. Staremberg then attacked, forcing Vendôme’s retreat to a river and yielding field, cannon, and booty to the Allies. Follow-up dispatches note allied gains, casualties, and a push toward Barcelona.
