On 1793/12/19 Toulon falls to the Revolutionary French. In the

This has to be seen in connection with the siege of Dunkirk
of the period. With this battle Houchard relieved the besieged
French. At Hondschoote there were especially the Hanoverian troops of
York's army (35'000 strong) present. Houchard had a total of 50'000
(Army of the North) to his disposal during these days on campaign.
