A powerful French army under Marshal Bessières overwhelmed and destroyed the outnumbered Spanish troops under General Belveder, opening central Spain to invasion.[1] Spanish history remembers this battle for the vain gallantry of the Guard and Walloon regiments under Vicente Genaro de Quesada. Forming a rearguard for the shattered Spanish lines, these troops repelled repeated charges by General Lasalle's. The cost was high for the Spaniards, with only 74 of the 307 men in the rearguard surviving. It is said that Bessières personally returned Quesada's sword and had his wounds treated in the French field hospital{{Citation needed|date=July 2010}}. These acts of chivalry became increasingly rare as the Peninsular War dragged on.
