Years: 1509 - 1509
August
A massive Imperial army, accompanied by bodies of Spanish troops, sets out from Trento in early August into the Veneto, where they are joined by French and Papal contingents.
Because of a lack of horses, as well as general disorganization, Maximilian's forces will not reach Padua until September, giving Pitigliano the time to concentrate such troops as are still available to him, as well as several companies of volunteers from Venice, in the city.
