The article say "Outraged by this, Enghien ordered a renewed assault. The remnants of the Spanish squares were broken."

The spanish square never were broken, which is the source? According with the accounts of the battle, the french attacked three times the spanish position unsucessful, then they offered to the spanish a good surrender, and the spanish agreed.
