Attaque de Saint-Paul Raid on Saint-Paul
rdfs:comment
L'attaque de Saint-Paul fut une opération amphibie des guerres napoléoniennes menée en septembre 1809 par des forces militaires britanniques contre une baie fortifiée au nord-ouest de l'île Bonaparte, île française du sud-ouest de l'océan Indien aujourd'hui connue sous le nom de La Réunion. The Raid on Saint-Paul was an amphibious operation conducted by a combined British Army, Royal Navy and Royal Marines force against the fortified French port of Saint Paul on Île Bonaparte (now known as Réunion) during the Napoleonic Wars. The operation was launched on 20 September 1809 as both a precursor to a future full-scale invasion of Île Bonaparte and in order to capture the French frigate Caroline and the East Indiamen she had seized in the action of 31 May 1809 which were sheltering in the harbour. The operation was a complete success, with British storming parties capturing the batteries overlooking the port, which allowed a naval squadron under Commodore Josias Rowley to enter the bay and capture the shipping in the harbour.

The Raid on Saint-Paul was an amphibious operation conducted by a combined British Army, Royal Navy and Royal Marines force against the fortified French port of Saint Paul on Île Bonaparte (now known as Réunion) during the Napoleonic Wars. The operation was launched on 20 September 1809 as both a precursor to a future full-scale invasion of Île Bonaparte and in order to capture the French frigate Caroline and the East Indiamen she had seized in the action of 31 May 1809 which were sheltering in the harbour. The operation was a complete success, with British storming parties capturing the batteries overlooking the port, which allowed a naval squadron under Commodore Josias Rowley to enter the bay and capture the shipping in the harbour. The French defenders of the town, despite initially resisting the attack, were unable to prevent the seizure of the port's defensive fortifications. The British force later withdrew under pressure from the main garrison of the island, burning warehouses containing over £500,000 worth of silk captured from British merchant ships. Ultimately the French were unable to effectively oppose the invasion, the island's governor General Des Bruslys retreating to Saint-Denis rather than engage the British and later committing suicide. The transportation of forces from the recently captured island of Rodrigues, the co-ordination of land and naval forces and the failure of the French defenders to co-ordinate an effective response were all features of the subsequent invasion and capture of Île Bonaparte in July 1810. L'attaque de Saint-Paul fut une opération amphibie des guerres napoléoniennes menée en septembre 1809 par des forces militaires britanniques contre une baie fortifiée au nord-ouest de l'île Bonaparte, île française du sud-ouest de l'océan Indien aujourd'hui connue sous le nom de La Réunion. Lancée le 20 septembre, l'attaque consista en une manœuvre combinée de la Royal Navy, des Royal Marines et de la British Army, leur objectif tactique étant la prise de la frégate Caroline et des deux Indiamen qu'elle avait préalablement capturés, ancrés à l'abri dans la baie de Saint-Paul. D'un point de vue stratégique, l'opération devait par ailleurs permettre de tester la défense de Bourbon en vue d'une invasion définitive de la colonie, dont la ville de Saint-Paul, donnant sur la baie, était l'une des plus importantes localités. Le raid prévu fut, pour les Britanniques, un succès complet. L'escadre sous les ordres de Josias Rowley put saisir l'ensemble de la flotte ennemie après avoir pris le contrôle des batteries surplombant la rade, que les défenseurs de la localité furent incapables de protéger seuls. Dans la ville elle-même, certains sympathisants royalistes accueillirent favorablement les assaillants, et des entrepôts contenant des cargaisons de soie d'une grande valeur marchande brûlèrent dans un incendie dont les initiateurs furent peut-être des esclaves rebelles. Acculé, le gouverneur en place, Nicolas Ernault des Bruslys, se suicida à Saint-Denis. Ce n'est que lorsque la principale garnison de l'île arriva en renfort que les attaquants réembarquèrent. Quelques mois plus tard, lorsqu'ils revinrent encore plus nombreux en juillet 1810, ils réussirent relativement aisément la prise de la colonie. Ceci permit la chute de l'île de France voisine et l'établissement d'une mainmise durable des Britanniques sur la route des Indes.
