The Army of the West (armée de l'Ouest) was one of the French Revolutionary Armies that was sent to fight in the War in the Vendée in western France. The army was created on 2 October 1793 by merging the Army of the Coasts of La Rochelle, the so-called Army of Mayence and part of the Army of the Coasts of Brest. In 1793 the army or its component forces fought at Second Châtillon, First Noirmoutier, La Tremblaye, Cholet, Laval, Entrames, Fougères, Granville, Dol, Angers, Le Mans and Savenay. After the main Vendean army was crushed, the revolt evolved into guerilla warfare and there were few pitched battles. In 1794 Louis Marie Turreau tried to suppress the rebellion with extremely brutal methods using the infamous infernal columns. Calmer heads finally prevailed and Turreau was recalled. On 6 January 1796, the army was absorbed into the newly formed Army of the Coasts of the Ocean. The Army of the West came into existence a second time on 17 January 1800 and was finally suppressed on 21 May 1802. (en) L’armée de l'Ouest est une armée de la Révolution française chargée de combattre l'insurrection vendéenne. Elle est créée le 1er octobre 1793 par fusion, de l’armée des côtes de La Rochelle, de l’armée de Mayence et d'une partie de l'armée des côtes de Brest (l'état-major de Nantes). Elle cesse d'exister le 29 août 1795, date de sa fusion avec l'armée des côtes de Brest pour former l'armée des côtes de l'Océan. Le 26 octobre 1797 l'armée des côtes de l'Océan fusionne avec l'armée des côtes de Cherbourg et forme l'armée d'Angleterre. Cette armée d'Angleterre reprit le nom d'armée de l'Ouest le 14 janvier 1800. Elle reprit à nouveau le nom d'armée des côtes de l'Océan en 1804. (fr) |
