of the Artillerie there also to put the armie into form of battaile even as if they were that day to fight with the enemie The manner of ordering the armie for combat is according to that which the Generall shall intend to execute as to go and conquer a countrey to releeve a place besieged to give battaile to march crosse through an enemies countrey or to make a retreat If he purpose to conquer a countrey he ought to know the estate of the same as whether it be well peopled or not whether he might be opposed by one or more armies and what manner of ones to know their alliances and the means how to break them or at least to hinder them from joyning together if it be possible to know the passages their places of entrance and issuings out the woods mountains straits ports keyes bridges havens the situation of their cities and places of strength their garrisons and munitions He ought to be informed of the fertilitie of the countrey to cause victuall to be carried thither if it be barren or to discharge his armie of that train if it abound He is to have the plat of the countrey in a generall map and also in many particular ones to know the situation and distance of places and whether the countrey be plain and even or the contrary and to judge by the capacity of the place what front he may give to his armie If his designe be to releeve some besieged place and to convey supplies within it and to effect that desireth to force a quarter he ought not to spread out the wings of his armie but to keep himself serried close as did Prince Maurice when he releeved Coevorden against the King of Spains army conducted by Verdugo and the Marquis Spinola when he went to releeve Groll The armie of the Marquis Spinola when he marched to releeve Groll Front If he intend to deliver battaile to his enemie the occasion offering it self and the countrey being fit for it he ought to extend the front of his armie as much as may be yet not so much that it be not strong enough in the depth to sustain the enemies charge but to have the van-guard battaile and rear-guard of sufficient thicknesse to hinder his being surprised on the flanks and to the end that every man may fight which is one of the most important considerations and to attempt to enclose the enemie within a crescent so to charge him on the front flanks and rear if it may be as did Gaston de Fois at Ravenna against Raimond de Cardonne and the Prince Maurice at Newport and also when he traversed the plains of Gulick The armie of Prince Maurice when he went to besiege Gulick ranged into two forms of battaile the one when the pikes and muskets were joyned and the other when they were divided The black squares represent the squadrous of horse and the white ones the battaillons of foot Front of the Battaile You may see this figure more largely and more exactly in my book of Cavallry in figure 16. If he desire to cause his Army to traverse or march through an enemies countrey he ought alwayes to cause them to be quartered together in one body without disuniting of any part and to march in Battalia making choice of open places free from woods and such as are plain and even securing his quarters and carrying munitions with him requisite for the time of his passing through for it is a very hard matter to lead an armie through an enemies countrey especially if it be divided by rivers covered with woods and mountainous and if there be in it places of strength and a mean armie to defend it self for it alwayes molests you cuts off the passage of victuall hindreth your armie in their march alwayes troubleth them on the Hanks or Reare waites upon advantag●s seeks occasions of surprising and continually layeth ambushes But after what manner soever your Army be embattailed a care you must have that all hands may be brought to fight and that your Army may deliver combat at least three times which it shall doe if it be divided into Van Battaile and Reare Let the horse be so disposed as they may alwayes second the foot and that in such sort as finding themselves disordered they may finde place to rally themselves under their shelter having no Battaillon behinde them so near whereby they might be again routed after such a disorder The Artillerie ought to be so placed that it hinder not the passage of the Battaillons that it may easily discover those of the enemie For the most part the Infanterie is within the body of the Armie in severall Battaillons disposed checquer wise the Cavallrie on their Wings and Reare in severall Squadrons and the Artillerie according to the convenience of the place on the Front of the Armie or on the Flanks of the Battaillons The Armie having been mustered at the place of rendez-vous it doth usually march away in Battalia to the place of their encamping that night if the countrey will permit it that so they may be taught how to march in order of Battaile which if it cannot do by reason of the unevennesse of the countrie the Pioners must be caused to make many severall wayes filling the ditches breaking down hedges and laying bridges of boats or otherwise over rivers and brooks In the middle-way the Artillerie Munition and Baggage shall march on the wings of these one part of the Infanterie is to march in their long order either three or five in Ranke on the Flank of these Foot some Carabines the two third parts of Cuirassiers shall be in two Squadrons at the head of the Armie and the other one third part in the like disposition on the Reare the Harquebusiers shall march before the Cuirassiers in the Front of all the Armie with the Carabines and Dragons saving some few which shall be on the Reare the Infanterie o●● t to march in the middle in the forme of double Battaillons as much as may be divided into Van Battaile and Reare all which will be more cleare by the forme which the Marquis Spinola observed when he marched through Freeseland to besiege Lingen whereof the figure followeth Front If the enemie be neare to the place where the armie is to arive the Marshall of the Field having chosen a fit place for the field of combat gives order for the placing of the Artillerie disparteth the quarters and places of the Regiments and Munitions causeth all the camp to be entrenched round about according to the art of fortification To this end he must endeavour to lodge at a seasonable houre that so he may have time to make his retrenchments to divide the quarters to place the guards to send out to forrage to cause the huts to be made to discover the actions of the enemie and to prevent a thousand inconveniences which the night produceth disposing all things according to the place

THere be two kindes of occasions of giving battaile the one is particular hapning between small troops as encounters which for the most part are given by accident and sometimes upon deliberation also such skirmishes as are ordinarily used to draw out entertain or discover the enemie The other is generall as when one Armie coming to encounter the other they give Battaile wherein for the diversities of times before the combat during it and after it there must be had divers considerations Before the combat you must know the enemies forces both horse and foot as also his Artillerie and Munitions you must also know whereunto he chiefly trusteth in what order he useth to fight also the situation and passages of the countrey You must make diligent discoverie of his designes and actions by your own spies or the enemies being corrupted with money or promises You must attempt to divide his forces to raise jealousies and diffidences between his chiefs or between them and their officers to incite his souldiers to mutinie You must strive to seize upon the most advantageous ground to range the Armie into Battalia having regard to the winde to avoid the dust and smoak and to drive it into their eyes and to the sunne that you be not dazled directing your self according to the place and the number of your own and the enemies forces The souldiers must be deprived of all hope of saving themselves by flight and must be brought to a disposition to fight courageously propounding to them the glorie the bootie the recompense and the necessitie The order which must be observed in ranging the Armie for a In my book of Cavallrie before mentioned you may see divers formes of battaile in figure 8 9 10 c. combat hath been shewed in the first chapter being the same as the march in battalia The Artillerie must play so soon as they begin to discover the battaillons of the enemie making the batterie fitly and speedily to disorder and scatter them before they come to give battaile Whilest the Armie stands ranged in battalia expecting the signall for combat the Marshalls of the field ought to ride before the Van to cause them to advance when the fight shall begin according to the Generalls order and to command the battaillons to joyne and charge the enemie or to receive his charge according to occurrences The Generall of the Armie by his diligence ought to be as the soul in the body throughout all the members alwayes observing the countenance of the enemie to make his men fight to purpose assisting the broken battaillons by fresh ones or by squadrons and ordering those which having been disbanded shall rally again to send them to the combat to releeve their fellows And because such as have been beaten will hardly return to fight again you must not trust too much to them As soon as you be within reach of the Canon you must go on directly upon the enemie unlesse you be sheltered from his Artillerie by this means your souldiers are encouraged you avoid the danger of the enemies Canon and you leave behinde you the place where your Armie stood ranged which ground will serve to rally and order the Battaillons which shall happen to be routed You must not give on so hastily as that thereby the Battaillons be disordered and on the other-side you are to use a marching pace untill you come within distance of a Pistoll-shot but then to double your pace and to charge furiously the Pikes being close serried and the Muskets continually playing on the Flanks having certain Targetteers in Front which may shelter the Battaillon and disorder the enemies Pikes You must give a sufficient Front to the Battaillons that so they may overwing the enemie and charge him in Front and Flank observing on which part the enemie giveth the most violent assault and thither to send the troops of Reserve as also where he is weakest that

equall such as the fortification of one face is such are all the rest But if it be irregular which is when the sides be unequall as all cities are which are repaired the fortification on all parts must be disagreeing But what forme soever it hath you must observe the rules following as much as may be and labour to make it equally strong on all sides Rules of Fortification That the angles or points of the Bullworks which are called angles flanked be made as great and blunt as may be for the more obtuse the flanked angles be the better and the angles flanking are the more sharp A. B. C. The angle flanked B. C. D. The angle flanking That the shoulders of the Bullworks be made massie enough to resist the violence of the enemie and to hinder him from ruining the flanks which they cover and long enough to cover in sight at least half of the flank of the casemat when you behold it from the point of the counterscarp of the opposite Bullwork The casemat must have of breadth the moytie of the thicknesse of the shoulder and the plain of it of 2 foot high above the plain of the drie moat or of the surface of the water The line of the thicknesse of the shoulder and of the breadth of the casemat is called the line of the flank and the longer it is the better provided that it bring no discommoditie to the other parts F. G. The thicknesse of the shoulder F. E The breadth of the casemat E G The line of the flank That every face of a fortresse must have two flanks that so it may defend it self both on the front and on the sides and the one by the other O. Is the center of the Bullwork O.P. A face of the fort H. Is one flank I. Is the other flank That the lines of defence be not so long that they be without the reach of your shot nor so short that the enemie being lodged on the counterscarp be able with his musket shot to beat yours out of your casemats I. B. and H. D. are the lines of defence That the Bullworks be large and hollow capable of divers retrenchements that there may be formed large flanks and that they may contain good store of souldiers for the hollow room is the place appointed to fight in and to bear retrenchements O. and P. represent the places of the Bullworks The sallie-ports ought to be placed between the shoulders of the Bullworks and the casemats F. The sally-port A. B. H.B. I.D. and D.G. the faces of the Bullworks That the faces of the Bullworks and the curtains be sunk within the moat to the upper line and that upon this line there be a parapet of 8 foot height and a Three foot for the thicknesse of the parapet is surely farre too little Maroloys and others say 20 foot And the Authour himself sayes from 15 to 20 foot in the words following 3 foot thicknesse Then let the way for the rounds be 2 fathom broad therein being comprehended the 2 foot-banks of the parapet aswell of the Bullworks as the curtains S. The upper line or superficies T. The parapet of the curtain V. The way for the rounds X. The foot-banks That the rampart of the Bullworks be 15 foot high on the plain of the citie and that of the curtain twenty five without reckoning the parapet briefly that it be so high as it may keep the houses from being battered and ruined L●t their parapets be from 15 to 20 foot thick and 8 foot high Y. Z. The height of the rampart of the Bullworks Z. θ. The thicknesse of the parapet The ditches must be from 12 to 16 fathome broad and from 5 to 6 deep beneath the covert way being drie if it may be having a small ditch in the middle of 20 foot broad and as much or more in depth If the moat be full of water it must be 20 fathome broad and from 4 to 5 fathome deep and divided by a dam of earth of 30 foot thick The town wall must be high enough because the depth of the drie ditch which giveth height to the wall is here filled with water M. S. The breadth of the ditch M. N. The depth The covert way must be from 3 to 4 fathome broad having a parapet of 10 or 12 foot high the moytie of it being sunk into the plain L. M. The breadth of the covert way K. L The height of the parapet of the counterscarp The parapets must be of earth or of unburnt brick except the outward row which must be of burnt brick to resist the injurie of weather If the curtains be long there must be a cavallero set on every point but if they be short there will need but one which shall be on the middle of them They must be so high as they may command all the works and the hillocks without if there be any and if it may be They are commonly raised 10 foot above the rampart Their length is taken from the number and qualitie of the Artillerie which you would plant thereon and their breadth dependeth on the length and reversing of the pieces of Artillerie and of a parapet of three fathomes and a half thick ♃ ♂ The height of the cavallero upon the rampart The pieces of ordinance nearer to the center of the fort must command those which are farther off raising the one above the other from 8 to 10 foot That all the walls of the Bullworks and curtains turn their Front from the opposite places which command them leading them bias-wise that so the batterie be not raised perpendicularly upon it and that the bullet may glance by means of the bias and sloap and that they be not commanded nor seen from farre off The market place of the citie or such places where the grand watches are kept must be covered in the middle to shelter the battaillons from the rain and there must be pent-hous●s along the streets which lead to the rampart to the same end The streets ought to be 6 fathom broad at the least that so the waggons and Artillerie may passe the freelier The stairs to passe to the covert way of the counterscarp must be just in the middle of the curtain between the two flanks of the Bullworks ♄ Stairs of the counterscarp There must be half moons made on the forepart of the curtains right over against the angles flanking on the counterscarps having their faces defended by Bullworks open behinde that so they may be defended by the curtain being 12 foot high from the plain having a ditch of 25 foot broad and 15 foot deep beneath its covert-way ♉ A half moon Before the half moons you must advance tenailles or hornworks and at the head of them half Bullworks and before them redouts casting the earth on that side towards the citie which will serve for a parapet These works must be 10 foot deep and 15 foot broad and must be desended

head-piece on his head musket proof and a target with a long rift and another rift acrosse that The breach must be accessible and not too right on capable of many assailants having all the flanks broken both high and low The souldiers which are to give the assault must ascend in good order assail furiously fight obstinately and they must either be repulsed by those of the garrison or remain masters of the place If they be repulsed by the sole valour of the enemie in this case without delay or suffering the enemie to gather breath you must charge them again with fresh men and in greater number so often untill you enter by force for fighting onely against men it were a shame that a greater number of fresh men should not force them If some retrenchment and new fortification made by the garrison hath held the assailants from passing further in this case if that fortification be weak it must be forced by the sap and mine scaling ladders fireworks and granadoes but if it be strong you must lodge upon the breach and presently again begin the sap and mine and approach and draw up some piece of ordinance on the breach Whilest these things above said be in the executing you must molest the besieged by all possible means you can as by attempting them by treacherie making them consume their munitions in short time and unprofitably breaking the conveyances of their waters making feigned batteries confounding their signalls by making the like stirring up causes of suspicion amongst themselves often making false alarmes taking heed that you be not affronted by spies causing it to be made known that you want nothing to bring the siege to an end galling them with fireworks granadoes and artillerie in their magazines corps-du-guards and alarm-places finally giving no rest to the assailed untill you have either forced them or be constrained to retreat If you carrie the town by force and remain master of the place the bootie is to be given to the souldiers principally to those which made the assault which are the prisoners and spoils of the enemie alwayes having regard to the women and children to deal fairly with them If it be commodious and advantageous to the vanquisher to preserve the fortresse he must repair it presently emptying the moat where it was filled up laying plain the trenches throwing down the cavalleroes and batteries without repairing and making up the breaches returning the waters into their naturall course if they were turned our fortifying the place better then formerly it was if it may be providing it of a sufficient garrison of good valiant and prudent Governours and Captains of victuall armes manufactures mechanicall instruments and Apothecaries drugs If it be not advantageous to maintain the fortresse he must cause it to be demantled and all the fortification of it to be rased leaving the houses entire provided that afterward they may not again fortifie there nor endammage him The usuall practices to assail fortresses First you must labour to get a map or plat of the fortresse and of the champain round about it and to be informed of their munitions to know the bignesse and capacitie of the fortresse the amplitude and commoditie of the market-places and streets the situations of the magazines town-house Governours lodging the rampart and walls their height thicknesse matter and form the capacitie height and situation of their cavalleroes What Bullworks there be and whether they be great or small sunk into the moat or very high mounted commanded or commanding blunt or sharp having eares or orillons and casemats or not full or emptie of a large gorge or strait made of earth or lined with stone or brick mineable or not Whether the casemats be seen from the champain whether they be high or low single or double one upon the other whether you can batter them in a straight line or glancing and whether they have ditches before them to receive the ruines of the batterie or not The breadth and depth of the moat whether the bottom be of stone or earth whether it be drie or with water in it either all or in part whether there be sallie-ports whereabout they be and from whence they can be discovered Whether the counterscarp be of meer earth or with a wall of drie stone or with lime and sand Whether the covert way of the counterscarp be broad or narrow well or ill sheltred and flanked whether the parapet be raised above the plain or sunk low whether it be of transported earth and mingled with old ruines or meer earth and whether it be easie or hard to be cut sapped or pierced If there be suburbs belonging to the place whether you can become master of them at first onset or whether you must be put to batter them with Artillerie Whether there be other works on the outside of the counterscarp what they be and how they be made Whether the ground round about the town do command it or whether it be levell champain or if it be commanded whether it be moorish or drie whether it be rockie or sandie and whether you must approach it by traverses or trenches and whether they be easie or hard to make whether thereabout be wood to serve you for the making of gabions sauceidges and other things whether there be convenient place to encamp the Armie safe from the Artillerie of the town or whether you may encamp near the town by reason of some advantage or by sheltring your self with traverses or whether you shall be constrained to keep aloof off Whether there be a river and what manner of one whether you can divert it from them or not whether you may make benefit of it or are to fear an inundation by it whether it be wadeable or navigable at sometimes or at all times Whether the situation of the place be near or farre off from other places on that side whether it be able to get succours or munitions whether quickly or late and whether you can hinder it or not and how Knowing all these things you must be informed of the munitions of the town the number of the garrison how many horse what commanders what souldiers what number of Artillerie as well great as small what powder and how much what Enginiers what makers of fire-works and what Canoniers whether they be at unitie within the town or whether there be divisions The Generall being well informed of all these things being resolved to force the place because he shall judge it faiseable he must send his troops of light horsemen to overrun and wast the countrey round about and to take prisoners thereby to be informed more certainly of the estate of the place He must lead his Armie near to the town that they may see it in battalia causing those to be furiously charged which shall sallie out of the town to skirmish and by this means he shall discover the place the Bullworks the moat the counterscarp and the other works

He must make his quarters in such place as is most secured from the canon shot of the town in the best aire where he may best have the commoditie of water and wood if it may be and the fairest situation to make the alarm-place He is to ordain the quarters of his Armie and shall cause the line of circumvallation to be well retrenched and guarded both against releefs and against those of the town He ought not to have so much regard of assaulting the town in that part where it is weakest as of the commoditie and securitie of his camp and his quarters and commonly the approaches are made from those places The trenches must not begin nearer to the place then harquebus a crock shot or at least musket shot running them so that they be not seen straight along by those of the town that they be broad and deep well flanked and furnished with forts covering those approaches with hurdles which are subject to granadoes and stone-pieces The place of the Artillerie intended to batter the high flanks and parapets must be raised so high that it may command them but that which should make the breach and beat down the walls must be sunk into the counterscarp battering the wall between winde and water if there be any or at a fathom height above the superficies of the ditch if it be drie The first is placed when you begin your trenches of approach to favour them the other when you lay your gallerie to pierce the counterscarp this batterie makes the breach and beats down the low flanks Whilest this batterie is a making you are to pierce the counterscarp and to have the boats or the wood for the galleries in readinesse to bring them to the face of the Bullwork and to go to the assault so soon as you have shot a breach or to sap and mine the face of the Bullwork and there to lodge in case you cannot advance further and to carrie it by force You must lodge your musketiers within the trenches and especially in those which run along by the counterscarp that so they may beat away all those of the town that might appear as well on the curtains as casemats You must alwayes make the breach on the faces of the Bullworks near their points unlesse some advantage do incite you to do otherwise The entrances to the galleries on the moat must be as farre distant from the flanks as may be but in such sort as they be not seen but of one flank The more galleries there be the better Cause your granadoes to play into the middle of the Bullworks so continually that you may hinder the enemie from working there or there placing their guard If the moat be full of water you must emptie it or passe over it by floating bridges which is dangerous or by galleries which is not so hazardable You may emptie it when there is near hand some place lower then the ditch by piercing the counterscarp and giving the water a course towards the place or else you may make a ditch and pierce the counterscarp to cause the water to run into it which is drawn out by pumps Or else you are to make floating bridges of barrels or bundles of cork But if the moat be shallow you may make galleries with sauceidges These sauceidges are made of faggots of brush wood from 15 to 20 foot long and one foot thick in diameter all stuffed with rubbish to keep them from floating on the water then upon these sauceidges you are to lay hurdles or planks If the moat be drie and of earth you must make trenches usually to that which is drie if a breach be made you make neither trench nor gallerie but you take away all the flanks to passe it securely and you shelter your self on the sides by hurdles brush wood or gabions If you force the place by little and little and that the ditch be of a rock you must make a traverse within the ditch with sauceidges or with gabions or with linnen sacks full of earth Having passed the moat you are to give the assault if the breach be sufficient or ill retrenched or else you are to lodge at the foot of the Bullwork and to go to the sap and mine and according to their effect you must give the assault advance or lodge If the retrenchment of the assailed be great firm and strong having gained the Bullwork you must there draw up and plant your ordnance and make your batterie the most speedy and violen● that may be Nothing so much affrighteth the assailed as a furious and expedited batterie for he hath not leisure to retrench himself and knows not where to range himself to be under shelter That doth much wearie and molest the besieged when they are assaulted at 3 or 4 severall Bullworks at 3 or 4 corners of the town they are in continuall suspicion they have their forces disunited they cannot prevent false alarms their labours are very great and their guards much more toilsome and insupportable Besides that every man is diffident of the other guards breaches retrenchments and of their endeavour to make good defence It also much discommodateth the besiegers for their forces are disunited their quarters are farre from each other they are in danger to be hard put to it by sallies or by succours being so scattered The figures following will facilitate the understanding of this chapter A.
