linois 's expedition to the indian ocean was a commerce raiding operation launched by the french navy during the napoleonic wars .

contre-admiral charles-alexandre durand linois was ordered to the indian ocean in his flagship marengo in march 1803 accompanied by a squadron of three frigates , shortly before the end of the peace of amiens .

when war between britain and france broke out in september 1803 , marengo was at pondicherry with the frigates , but escaped a british squadron sent to intercept it and reached isle de france ( now mauritius ) .

from isle de france , linois and his frigates began a series of attacks on british commerce across the eastern indian ocean , specifically targeting the large convoys of east indiamen that were vital to the maintenance of trade within the british empire and to the british economy .

although he had a number of successes against individual merchant ships and the small british trading post of bencoolen , the first military test of linois squadron came at the battle of pulo aura on 15 february 1804 .

linois attacked the undefended british china fleet , consisting of 16 valuable east indiamen and 14 other vessels , but failed to press his military superiority and withdrew without capturing a single ship .

in september 1804 , linois attacked a small british convoy at vizagapatam in the bay of bengal and captured one ship , but was again driven off by inferior british forces .

the damage marengo suffered on the return to isle de france was so severe that she had to be overhauled at grand port , and after subsequent cruises in the red sea and in the central indian ocean , where linois was again driven away from a large british convoy by inferior british forces , he attempted to return to europe via the cape of good hope .

on the return journey , linois 's ships sailed into the cruising ground of a british squadron participating in the atlantic campaign of 1806 and was captured by overwhelming forces at the action of 13 march 1806 , almost exactly three years after leaving france .

linois 's activities in the indian ocean had caused panic and disruption across the region , but the actual damage inflicted on british shipping was negligible and his cruise known more for its failures than its successes .

in france , napoleon was furious and refused to exchange linois for captured british officers for eight years , leaving him and his crew as prisoners of war until 1814 .

linois actually had no further designs on english trade in the east . he ' took himself off ' permanently and spent the rest of the year off the cape of good hope . when the cape was taken by the english , the marengo was captured in an attempt to reach france .

in pellew ' s day , the strategy of the indian ocean was dominated by the monsoons . whereas in the extreme south of his command , the wind blew almost invariably from the west ; and whereas the south - east trade wind prevailed to the eastwards , the wind about india itself blew part of the year from one direction and the rest of the year from the opposite quarter . it still does so , but without attracting quite so much attention . the south - west monsoon blew from may to the middle of september and rendered the west side of india unsafe , owing to the lack of secure harbours . to go from madras to bombay during the north - east monsoon was impossible - indeed , it was impossible at any time except between the middle of august and the middle of september . it was only possible to go from bombay to china during the southwest monsoon . to these rules the exceptions were negligible , except for ships of war .

now , the reader who recalls to mind the peculiar conditions in the indian ocean with the naturally resulting migration of warships from one side of india to the other , will see why pellew thought the division of the command nothing less than raving lunacy . his private objections are partly obvious but we are quite justified in assuming that the public danger struck him more forcibly . this division of the command prevented either commander - in - chief from sheltering during the monsoon . if the squadron to the eastward could survive this , which it probably could , the squadron to the westward could not . the whole west side of india contained no single port capable of sheltering ships of the line in safety during the south - west monsoon . then , as regards more personal considerations , the assignment to him of the western station had the effect of giving the senior officer all the work and the junior officer all the profit . before the digging of the suez canal , or rather before the steamship came to render the red sea navigable , the western half of the indian ocean was practically deserted . ( 342 ) the commander - in - chief on the western station would have the valueless privilege of escorting a part of the china fleet from bombay to the rendezvous appointed by his junior . he might have to protect a few grain ships coming round to bombay from the other side of india . of trade to the westward there was none . some worthless local craft came and went on their dubious occasions , and that was all . the western command contained nothing ; nothing , that is to say , except mauritius .

from this it is perfectly clear why mauritius was allowed to remain in french hands for so long . the government and the east india company each thought the other would take it . the result was that france won the game and persisted in winning it for years . the excuse barlow offered concerning the impoverished state of the finances comes to less than nothing . the company lost far more in shipping and insurance than the expedition could possibly have cost . but it was the nightmare of the east india company that the government might use the company ' s funds for imperial purposes . in this instance , the shareholders lost heavily through an attempt to place their burden on the taxpayer . but they were not the only sufferers . pellew and his officers suffered as keenly , for they were prevented from striking the one blow the navy could hope to strike in the indian seas .

and immediately involved himself in efforts to strength . . . . . . mediately involved himself in efforts to strengthen the colony ' s defenses .

in the general rush to intercept linois , pellew had taken no part . the culloden sailed on august 22nd , but merely to convey some treasure to vizagapatam . pellew did not ( 340 ) go with it , having by this time taken up his residence ashore . on the same day as the culloden sailed , the blenheim came into the harbour .

it will be seen from the above account that the importance of the ile de france was purely political . as a naval base , a base for privateers , and the last foothold of the french in the indian ocean , it performed an important negative function . although of no great use to france it was a perpetual annoyance to england . cruisers could issue from it to prey upon the immensely important trade of the indies or intrigue with the native powers of india and persia . and so vast is the indian ocean that the pursuit of these ( 35i ) raiders was a hopeless task . they were sometimes caught by sheer accident and they sometimes mistook warships for indiamen and so came to an untimely end . but , in general , the mere chasing of them did little to reduce their numbers . some nine privateers , with a few frigates , were enough to keep nearly thirty english warships very fully occupied for as long as the english saw fit to run after them .

on the day after the destruction of the shipping , on the 28th , that is to say , the two frigates which had covered the boat attack , commanded by pellew ' s two sons , worked nearer the town and set fire to the dockyard . almost the only losses incurred were the result of accidentally blowing up a powder magazine among the dutch store - houses on the isle of onroost .

there is a certain similarity between the letters written by pellew and troubridge . the two baronets had somewhat the same circle of friends and the letters they wrote to the same people centred on the same topic . but the parallelism between the following letters to admiral markham verges on the absurd . it is necessary to explain that the events they refer to are the taking of the bellone , privateer , by the powerful , and the dutch frigate pallas by the greyhound and harrier . the first capture was made by pellew ' s ships . the second - which included the taking of two valuable dutch spice ships , was made by ships of troubridge ' s squadron . by august , it may be noted , the rumours of pitt ' s death had been confirmed .

my dear general sir ed . p . has thought proper to set the admiralty ' s instructions on side , and carve out the command as he finds most pleasing and advantageous to himself , and has retained madras in order to control the civil department , which i was determined to set to rights , while he tried all in his power to get me to resign .

sir i am favoured with your letter of yesterday ' s date , in answer to which i beg to acquaint you that the motives upon which i judged it expedient to take you under my command on your arrival are grounded upon the information i have received of the enemy ' s intention to unite for the purpose of a concerted attack upon the china convoys of the present season , and that this resolution has been made known to the board of admiralty previous to your arrival on this station .

. general dugua marched on rosetta , with orders to seize and hold the entrance to the port housing the french fleet , which had to follow the route to cairo down the river ' s left bank and rejoin the army at rahmanié . on 8 july , bonaparte arrived at demenhour , where he found the forces had met up , and awaited the fleet with their provisions . the fleet arrived on 12 july and the army began to march again at night , followed by the fleet .

the french revolution had significantly reduced the knights of malta ' s income and their ability to put up serious resistance . half of the knights were french , and most of these knights refused to fight .

the french were formidable and mischievous because they possessed a base in the indian seas . this base , their sole remaining possession , was mauritius ; the isles , to be exact , of france and of bourbon , situated to the east of madagascar . from here they sent out a number of cruisers and a great number of privateers , which operated on the various trade routes . the possession of this base enabled them also to intrigue with the native powers in india , and to foster a growing interest in the sea of arabia and the persian gulf . the french officer in command of the ships at the ile de france was rear admiral durand linois , who had come out in 1803 with one ship of the line and three frigates . he had begun the war badly by a defeat at the hands of some east indiamen sailing without any naval protection . but he was undaunted by the english superiority as to numbers , and had written in 1803 that ' as they have many points to guard , their force must necessarily be divided , and i hope to be able to do them considerable mischief by directing my course successively to very distant parts of the indian ocean . ' linois was on bad terms with decaen , the governor of the ile de france , and out of favour with napoleon since his defeat at the hands of the indiamen . he should have had another base , in pondichery , which france obtained by the peace of amiens , but the english had refused to surrender it when called upon to do so . as it was , he was driven to use the cape of good hope as a base when anxious to avoid decaen . pellew ' s difficulties in dealing with the french cruisers will be discussed on a later page .

when the ottomans in constantinople received news of the french fleet ' s destruction at aboukir , they believed this spelled the end for bonaparte and his expedition . sultan selim iii decided to wage war against france , and sent two armies to egypt . the ottomans planned two offensives against cairo : from syria , across the desert of salhayeh - belbays - el kankah , and from rhodes by sea landing in the aboukir area or the port city of damietta .

on 22 july , the notables of cairo came to giza to meet bonaparte and offered to hand over the city to him . three days later , he moved his main headquarters there .

on june 29th , linois , unexpectedly appearing off ceylon , took the brunswick east indiaman . he had with him the marengo , bearing his flag , and the frigate belle poule ( 44 ) . as soon as the news reached madras , frantic efforts were made to prevent further damage . pellew sent ships out in ( 336 ) every direction to intercept the raiders or prevent merchant ships from sailing . he himself awaited further intelligence at madras . the french ships were seen off point de galle on july 11th , and the sarah of bombay ran ashore in attempting to escape from them . linois , satisfied with his prize and the general uproar and confusion he had caused , set off for his base while the way was clear . the flying squadrons thirsted for his blood in vain . he was miles to the southward before they began to arrive . it was not in his power , however , to regain harbour at once . the southwest monsoon which had taken pellew up to madras had brought linois to the scene of action from the ile de france . it now prevented him returning there by the way he had come . he had to make a long detour to the south and east in the hope of picking up the trade wind to carry him westwards to mauritius . meanwhile , troubridge was on his way from england . he had sailed early in the year with eleven indiamen under the protection of his flagship . he was already in indian waters .

on the 28th the two admirals separated . rainier escorted ( 332 ) a part of the china fleet to madras , and pellew took the remainder to bombay . when writing to the marquis wellesley from penang , he stated what his immediate movements were to be :

linois ' s officers and the emperor napoleon personally castigated the french admiral for his failure to press the attack against a weaker and extremely valuable enemy . although he remained in command of the squadron for another two years and had some minor success against undefended merchant ships , he suffered a string of defeats and inconclusive engagements against weaker british naval forces .

the squadron sailed on the 1st of december . three ships , suffering wretchedly from scurvy while becalmed , went to trincomalee ; two were left to cruise in the eastern seas ; and the flagship and another went to madras . the end of the expedition was somewhat marred by the escape of the dutch convoy from japan . these ships went , by mistake , outside bankar island , while pellew was waiting for them inside . consolation came in the form of the official restitution to the whole command , which reached him at malacca on january 1st , 1807 . it was while still there that pellew wrote an account of his affairs to broughton .

during the latter half of july , troubridge and linois were , without knowing it , steadily approaching each other . as troubridge testily drove his convoy northwards , linois was winging his way southward and away from the hornets ' nest he had overturned . as they were steering they were bound to meet ; and meet , in the end , they did . it was on august 6th that they met , to their mutual astonishment . it was in a fog and they all but ran into each other ' s arms . the fog happened to clear a little at midday and linois suddenly found himself almost on top of a fleet of indiamen . the marengo was not particularly well handled or trained , and the surprise was complete . with a good deal of confusion the men , who were having their dinner at the moment , were set to clear the decks . the prisoners from the brunswick , who were patronizingly watching the process , were bundled forward into the cable - tier . the french opened fire as soon as their guns were run out .

i propose sailing immediately with the whole force of line of battle ships to take a station most advantageous for the execution of their lordship ' s instructions , leaving you here in your command , and with the entire direction of the convoy to china .
