Asnières

Here the train stopped at the Asnières station, and two privates of the Garde Impériale got into the carriage.

Shortly after, Flourens arrived by the road of Asnières, bringing hardly a thousand men.

At the same time his brother stormed the castle of Bécon, that commands the road from Asnières to Courbevoie.

The 250 Federals who occupied it held out for six hours, and the survivors fell back upon Asnières, where panic entered with them.

The following day our vanguard was surprised by strong detachments, and the cannon of Courbevoie battered Asnières.
