This battle is significant in that the 4,000 Mexican soldiers are greatly outnumbered by the well-equipped French army that had not been defeated for almost 50 years.
What is the troop strength of the French army?
5,000
6,000
7,000
8,000



Answer :

The battle in question is Battle of Puebla on 5th May 1862. Actually, many sources say that the number of French soldiers was 6,500 - so between 6 and 7 thousand! However, I think that the safer option is 6000 as many other sources say "just above 6000".
