Battle context
The Battle of La Tremblaye was a Republican victory over the Vendéen forces near Cholet during the War in the Vendée. Fought with Republican forces numbering 15,000 against a Royalist army of 25,000, the engagement inflicted 1,200 casualties on the Vendéen side. The battle formed part of the broader Republican campaign to suppress the Royalist insurrection in the Vendée region, contributing to the mounting pressure on Vendéen forces in the autumn of 1793.
