In 1521 he succeeded in defending the duchy against the See also:Spanish See also:army, but in 1522 he was completely defeated at the See also:battle of the Bicocca, and was forced to evacuate the Milanese. The See also:mutiny of his Swiss troops had compelled him, against his wish, to engage in the battle.
