In the Battle of Campo Maior, or Campo Mayor (an older spelling most often used in English language accounts), on 25 March 1811, Brigadier General Robert Ballard Long with a force of Anglo-Portuguese cavalry, the advance-guard of the army commanded by William Beresford, clashed with a French force commanded by General of Division Marie Victor de Fay, marquis de Latour-Maubourg. Initially successful, some of the Allied horsemen indulged in a reckless pursuit of the French. An erroneous report was given that they had been captured wholesale.

  • Le combat de Campo Maior se déroule le 25 mars 1811 à Campo Maior, au Portugal, et oppose la cavalerie anglo-portugaise du brigadier-général Robert Ballard Long à un contingent français commandé par le général de La Tour-Maubourg. Après avoir remporté un succès initial, plusieurs escadrons alliés se lancent à la poursuite des Français et s'emparent d'un convoi d'artillerie. Cependant, le général Beresford, trompé par un rapport erroné l'informant de la capture du 13e Light Dragoons, interrompt l'engagement, ce qui permet aux Français de récupérer les canons et d'atteindre Badajoz sans être inquiétés.

  • В битве при Кампу-Майор, или Кампо Майор, 25 марта 1811 года бригадир Роберт Баллард Лонг с англо-португальской конницей и авангардом под командованием Уильяма Бересфорда, столкнулся с французскими войсками под командованием дивизионного генерала Виктора Николя де Фэ, маркиза де Латур-Мобур. После первоначального успеха некоторые из всадников союзников предались безрассудному преследованию французов. Были получены ошибочные данные, что все они попали в плен. Вследствие этого Бересфорд остановил свои войска, и французы смогли избежать разгрома и вернуть себе конвой с артиллерийскими орудиями. (ru)
  • Combate de Campo (25 de março de 1811) foi um combate ocorrido em Campo Maior, Portugal, entre a cavalaria avançada anglo-portuguesa do brigadeiro-general , do exército britânico comandado por William Carr Beresford, e as forças francesas lideradas pelo general-de-divisão Latour-Maubourg. Bem-sucedidos de início, alguns dos cavaleiros Aliados perseguiram as forças francesas. Devido a informações erradas - as quais referiam que as tropas francesas tinham sido capturadas -, Beresford deu ordem de imobilização às suas forças, o que permitiu que os franceses escapassem e recuperassem um conjunto de peças de artilharia. O resultado da batalha foi a vitória anglo-portuguesa e reconquista de Campo Maior. (pt)
