These troops moved north in mid-May. Soult retreated and withdrew from Galicia. In July, Wellesley joined with Cuesta in an advance against Victor, who withdrew. Cuesta’s Spanish infantry pursued. Victor was soon reinforced by Joseph and Sebastiani. Cuesta fell back upon Wellesley's British force at Talavera. The French attacked and were defeated—but not routed. Soult with his own, Ney's, and Mortier's Corps moved to cut Wellesley's communications with Portugal. Meanwhile French troops under Suchet besieged Catalonia which surrendered in December of 1809. Suchet was now complete master of Catalonia. Guerilla bands made sure that only one-fourth of French reinforcements ever reached the front.
