Massed forces of infidels threaten late 18th century planned attack
On the 76th at noon a large body of 800 to 1000 horse appeared from Brake de les Canas and advanced toward Inferno Bank to reach the road of Zangier. Officers led the column, infantry followed, and two major infantry columns moved toward Zramagueras and Brake de les Canas. Bashaws signaled attack as the cavalry massed and opened fire. The engagement near Tangier’s road began with a general assault from multiple vantage points.
