As a Military Historian I rely on a summary of the historical fact, I analyze and highlight the decisive factors, before simulating hypotheses what if…
hypotheses through a board game. In the simulation, all possibilities of the purpose of the study are completed, when the past of history is analyzed based on the theory of the present and projected for similar situations in the future. Since 2010 I have published the following series of simulations: I. Historical Simulation of the Wars of the First Empires
; II. Historical Simulation of the Wars in Classical Greece
; III. Historical Simulation of the Roman Wars
; IV. Historical Simulation of Wars in the Medieval Era
; V. Historical Simulation of Wars in the Modern Era (1453 to 1774)

I suggest the reader who wants to know more about the war of which this battle is a part, to purchase my book The Thirty Years' War, 1618 to 1648. A Historical Simulation
.
Im 1: Thirty Years’ War.
French intervention in the 30 Years' War
Bourbon France, although with its mostly Catholic population, was a major rival to the Holy
Roman Empire and Habsburg Spain. Cardinal
7
Richelieu, chief minister to King Louis XIII of France, considered them to be very powerful as they occupied various territories on France's eastern and northern borders, including parts of the Low Countries.
Im 2: Religion divides.
As only a few Protestant German states, such as Hesse-Cassel, were still openly opposed to the consolidation of Catholic imperial power, this made Sweden the most obvious ally of Cardinal Richelieu, whose avowed policy was to halt the course of
Spanish progress on France's borders.
8
After Gustav's death, Swedish politics were directed by its Chancellor Axel Oxenstierna; in April 1633 the Swedes and their German allies formed the Heilbronn League with French funding. In July the Swedes and their German allies defeated an imperial army commanded by the Bavarian Bronckhorst-Gronsfeld at Oldendorf.
The Battle of Lützen in 1632 severely affected Wallenstein's prestige, which combined with rumors that he was preparing to change sides, caused Emperor Ferdinand to order his arrest, followed by his assassination by his own officers.
However, the loss of the experienced and competent Wallenstein and his practically private army left the Holy Emperor at the mercy of Spain for military support. This had as its main strategic objective to reopen the so-called Spanish Road
, an important logistical axis in its military campaign against the Dutch.
At the Battle of Nördlingen, the Habsburgs won a decisive victory that shattered Swedish power in
southern Germany and led to the defection of their
9
German allies, who sought to make peace with the emperor.
Im 3: Bourbon versus Habsburgs.
In March 1635 a French force entered the Valtellina, once again severing the connection between Spanish Habsburg-controlled Milan and its Austrian cousins. In May, his main army invaded the Spanish Netherlands, but was forced to withdraw in July after suffering heavy casualties from disease and desertion.
France declared war on Spain in May 1635 and
on the Holy Roman Empire in August 1636, opening
10
offensives against the Habsburgs in Germany and the Low Countries. She aligned her strategy with Sweden at Wismar (1636) and Hamburg (1638), whose loss of most territories conquered by Gustavus made her increasingly dependent on French funding.
A Spanish offensive in 1636 reached Corbie in northern France before lack of supplies forced them to withdraw, and although it caused panic in Paris, the effort was not repeated.
Although further weakened by the defection of most of its German allies after the Peace of Prague, in June 1636 a Swedish army under Johan Banér entered Brandenburg and defeated an Imperial army at the Battle of Wittstock, re-establishing its predominance in northeastern Germany.
Holy Emperor Ferdinand II died in February 1637 and was succeeded by his son Ferdinand III, who faced a deteriorating military position. In March 1638, the German Bernhard destroyed an Imperial army at Rheinfelden, while his capture of Breisach
in December secured French control of Alsace and
11
cut off the Spanish Road
. The main Imperial army under Matthias Gallas abandoned northeastern Germany to the Swedes, unable to sustain itself in the devastated area.
The Swede Banér defeated the Saxons at Chemnitz in April 1639, then entered Bohemia in May. To recover the situation, Ferdinand diverted Piccolomini's army from Thionville, ending direct military cooperation between Austria and Spain.
The cutting of the Spanish road forced Madrid to resupply its armies in Flanders by sea and in October 1639 a large Spanish convoy was destroyed in the naval battle of the Downs (this battle forms part of my book Naval Battles in the 17th Century. A Historical Simulation
) by a Dutch squadron, led by Maarten Tromp.
Dutch attacks on Spanish possessions in Africa and the Americas caused unrest and revolt in Portugal, then part of the Spanish Empire. After the French captured Arras in August 1640 and invaded Artois, Olivares argued that it was time to accept
Dutch independence and avoid further losses in
12
Flanders. Spain remained a formidable power but could no
