Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Belgic Revolution of 1830, Vol. 2 of 2 The dissolution of an army so numerous and well organized as that of the Netherlands, is an event of too great importance to be passed over in a cursory manner; but the surprise naturally awakened by its sudden disorganization is much diminished in considering how deeply the seeds of discontent and disaffection were implanted throughout its ranks. "At the moment of the attack on Brussels, the Netherlands military establishment consisted of three battalions of grenadiers and two of Chasseurs (guards); eighteen regiments of infantry; ten of cavalry (one of which, the seventh, was in Java); four battalions of field, six of garrison, and six troops of horse artillery; a battalion of train; a pontoon brigade; two battalions of sappers and miners, and, finally, a squadron of gensdarmes for each of the ten southern provinces, including the grand duchy. The staff, under Lieut. general Constant de Rebecque, was numerous, and on a par with the efficient state of the rest of the army, which formed a total of seventy-seven battalions of infantry; seventy-two squadrons of cavalry, and sixty companies or troops of artillery, exclusive of train, sappers, and gensdarmes; giving a general total of about 90,000 men.
