Battle of Haddorp
[2][3] On mountains beside the road there appeared rebels under Dacke, who began firing arrows from bows and crossbows, and bullets from hand cannons, at the royal troops.[3] The defeat caused a general uprising in northern Småland to break out, and shortly afterwards the peasants in Östergötland did the same.They set up camp in the parishes of Skeda and Slaka with 300 men and were to stay with the farmer Olof Håkansson overnight.[1][4] On 12 October, royal troops from Linköping were sent towards the rebel camp, and early in the morning, the royal troops under the command of Botvid Larsson and Abraham Eriksson[5][6] surprised the sleeping rebels and attacked them.The royal troops set fire to houses and barns, and Dacke's men were beaten and shot.
