Siege of Mantua (1799)
The Siege of Mantua (1799) was a four-month effort by the Austrian army to regain a presence in northern Italy after being excluded from that region by Napoleon Bonaparte through the successful French Siege of Mantua in 1797. In April 1799, the Austrians placed a military blockade around Mantua as part of the War of the Second Coalition with the intent of conquering the French by attrition. As their own attrition and diminishing food supplies weakened the Austrian army, they received reinforcements and attacked on 4 July 1799. By the end of the month, the French agreed to surrender.
==Prelude==
By 1799, the fortress of Mantua on the river Mincio in northern Italy was in poor shape.〔Obrona Mantui..., p.6-7〕 It was commanded by viscount lieutenant general François-Philippe de Foissac-Latour (1750-1804)〔 (Bibliographie biographique ou dictionnaire de 26000 ouvrages, tant anciens que modernes ) (1750-1804)〕 and garrisoned by a diverse force of 10,000, including French, Polish (Polish Legionnaires under general Józef Wielhorski), Italian (Republic of Alba and Cisalpine Republic), Swiss and German units.〔 From the beginning of his assignment, Foissac-Latour, an engineer, was convinced that the fortress would be indefensible in any serious siege.〔
