Invasion of the Veluwe
From Warlike
Q13733352
The Invasion of the Veluwe was an invasion of the Dutch Republic in 1629 carried out by Imperial and Spanish troops in order to divert the States army from the Siege of 's-Hertogenbosch. The invasion was led by Count Hendrik van den Bergh with an army that likely consisted of around 20.000 men. Although the city of Amersfoort in the province of Utrecht was captured, the Dutch did not give up their siege of 's-Hertogenbosch, which meant that the main objective of the invading troops was not achieved. And after the Dutch troops captured Wesel, the Imperial-Spanish forces were forced to retreat.
