Rajahmundry (Seven Years' War).
Fought December 9, 1758, between 2, 500 British troops, under Colonel Forde, in con- junction with about 5, 000 native levies, and the French, 6, 500 strong, under Conflans. The native troops did little on either side, but Forde's 500 Europeans routed Conflans' Frenchmen, and the latter fled with con- siderable loss.
Raker sberg (Ottoman Wars).
Fought 14 1 6, between 20, 000 Turks, under Ahmed Bey, and 12, 000 Austrians and others, under Duke Ernest of Stjnria. D
...uke Ernest marched to the relief of Rakersberg, which the Turks were besieging, and drove them from the field utterly routed. It is said that the Turkish losses amounted to more than the whole Christian army. Ahmed Bey was among the slain.
Ramillies (Seven Years' War). Fought May 23, 1706, be- tween the British and Imperi- alists, under Marlborough and Prince Eugene, about 80, 000 strong, and the French, in equal force, under Marshal Villeroy. The allies drove the French out of Ramillies, their resistance on the whole being unworthy of them, and in the end they were disastrously defeated with hea- vy loss, 5, 000 being killed and wounded, while 6, 000 pri- soners and 50 guns were taken.
