Meanwhile, the Portuguese under Fraser tried to push around the left of Rolica, but were stymied by the 3/4e Legere who even managed to wipe out the crew of the Reserve Artillery 9lber. Their casualties continued to mount, though, raising the question of just how long they can hold on under such pressure.
It's now 1300 hrs and bad news for the British as Kellerman arrives with, yet, more cavalry.
The pressure continues to mount in front of Rolica and around the hill, but the French continue to hold on, even launching a couple of local counter-attacks.
With their extra cavalry, can the French beat back the British or will superior numbers prevail in time?
