The Battle of Cacabelos was a minor battle of the Peninsular War that took place on 3 January 1809, at the bridge just outside the village of Cacabelos, Province of León, Spain, as British forces under Sir John Moore making their retreat to A Coruña. In the ensuing engagement with French Marshal Nicolas Soult's advance guard, British units were overwhelmed and forced to mount a hurried withdrawal across the bridge. Ultimately, however, the French forces failed to press their advance further due to heavy losses including the death of French Brigadier General Colbert-Chabanais. The resulting delay allowed Moore's forces to continue their retreat while keeping their forces largely intact.

  • Битва при Какабелосе была незначительным сражением Пиренейской войны, которое состоялось 3 января 1809 года на мосту недалеко от деревни Какабелов в провинции Леон, Испания, во время отступления английских войск под командованием сэра Джона Мура в Ла-Корунью. В сражении с авангардом французского маршала Никола Сульта британские части были разбиты и вынуждены были поспешно отступить через мост. В конечном счете, однако, французские войска не смогли продолжить наступление из-за больших потерь, включая смерть французского бригадного генерала Огюста Франсуа-Мари де Кольбер-Шабане. В результате эта задержка позволила силам Мура продолжить отступление. (ru)
