On 28 April, there was a minor skirmish at Quiévrain, just across the Franco-Belgian border, resulting in a victory for the French army under the command of general Armand-Louis de Gontaut Biron. However, although Biron advanced and planned to take the city of Mons and eventually Brussels, he judged his forces were not strong enough and decided to retreat. On 30 April, as his troops were passing by Quiévrain again, a false alarm of an Austrian attack caused the soldiers to panic, and they fled back to Valenciennes in a disorderly fashion. His ally Théobald Dillon, who served with Biron under marshal Rochambeau during this invasion, suffered an even worse fate during the battle of Marquain (29 April), some 35 kilometres to the northeast.[2] References1. ^{{Cite book |last=Connelly |first=Owen |date=2012 |title=The Wars of the French Revolution and Napoleon, 1792-1815 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=oOzcrC5e-LIC&pg=PA23 |location=London |publisher=Routledge |page=23 |isbn=9781134552894 |accessdate=30 July 2018}} {{coord missing|Belgium}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Quiévrain, Battle of}}{{France-battle-stub}}{{Austria-battle-stub}}{{Germany-battle-stub}}2. ^{{Cite book |last=Gallaher |first=John G. |date=1997 |title=General Alexandre Dumas: Soldier of the French Revolution |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=zZ-ALXkowCEC&pg=PA18 |location=Carbondale, Illinois |publisher=Southern Illinois University Press |page=18 |isbn=9780809320981 |accessdate=29 July 2018}} 5 : Battles involving Austria|Conflicts in 1792|1792 in France|Battles of the War of the First Coalition|History of Mons |
