NWOL Fall 2005 Campaign
Southern Front: Turns 1-5
Meanwhile, in the south, two parallel movements were underway. Along
the Mediterranean coast, the French army had moved south to attack the
Russians near Barcelona, while along the Atlantic coast, the Spanish
army was moving north to secure the passes of the Pyrenees south of
Bayonne and Pau. On turn 3, the French
fell on a Russian force north of Barcelona, which they outnumbered more
than 2 to 1, and shattered it. The remaining Russian troops fell back
on Tarragona, and on the following turn the French captured Barcelona.
To the west, the Spanish army was advancing in two columns. Finding
only weak opposition, they pushed forward through the mountains and
entered French territory. The
defending French forces abandoned Bayonne and concentrated against the
Spanish column heading towards Pau. On turn 4 the Spanish entered
Bayonne, but the French inflicted a sharp defeat on the column
approaching Pau. Outnumbered, however, the French were forced to
retreat from Pau at the end of the turn. On turn 5, the Spanish
concentrated around Pau, while the French fell back towards Toulouse.
The Russians raised new troops at Odessa and Sevastopol, and prepared
convoys to bring them to the scene of battle.
