Count d'Espenan, who commanded the two advanced regiments of Enghien's army, however, ordered a detachment to attack a redoubt which stood within the line of attack, and Merci sent supports to its defenders. D'Espenan sent more troops on his side and the engagement became serious.
Enghien commanded the cavalry on the right wing, with Gassion as second in command.
