  Battle of Novara (1513) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Battle of Novara was a battle of the War of the League of Cambrai fought on June 6, 1513, near Novara, in Northern Italy.
The battle was particularly bloody, with 5,000 casualties (other sources states up to 10,000) on the French side, and moderate losses for the Swiss pikemen, mostly suffered from the French artillery as the Swiss moved into the attack.
Nevertheless, the battle is sometimes presented as one between the French and the Milanese.

In the Battle of Novara 1513 the regiments of Swiss mercenaries suffered severe losses.
Then rumours spread through the Canton of Luzern that two members of the Luzern city council would recruit mercenaries for the French king (the enemy in the Battlr of Novara; thus having Swiss mercenaries fight Swiss mercenaries).
