Cegléd

The Battle of Cegléd was a battle in the Hungarian war of Independence of 1848-1849, fought on 25 January 1849 between the revolutionary Hungarian army led by General Mór Perczel against the cavalry brigade of the Austrian Empire led by General Ferenc Ottinger. After the First Battle of Szolnok Ottinger retreated to Cegléd and received some infantry reinforcements to his cavalry brigade. Perczel decided to continue his attack, and when Ottinger felt that he was about to be encircled by the Hungarian troops, decided to retreat from the battlefield. Thus this battle was confined merely to an artillery duel, ending in an Austrian retreat. Perczel's victories at Szolnok and Cegléd, were the first important Hungarian successes in the Western theater against the main Austrian army after the start of their offensive against Hungary in mid-December 1848, panicking the Imperial-Royal army's commandment in Pest, forcing it to call back the bulk of their troops which were pursuing Artúr Görgei's Upper Danube Corps in Northern Hungary.
