204:. The Battle at Montmorency was another French victory in which RĂ©giment de la Sarre took part in. Le Noir a captain in the regiment, was noted to be extremely brave in this battle in particular. He lost half of his men and was shot, and still managed to survive. The next battle La Sarre took part in was the decisive English victory at the Planes of Abraham. About 50 men were either injured or killed from the regiment during the battle. The final North American battle which the regiment would take part in was the Battle of Sainte-Foy. This was another victory for the French and La Sarre, which was inconsequential to the outcome of the war. The regiment lined up on the left flank of the French lines. There were signs of retreat on the left, but the regiment fought bravely and held off the English forces for half an hour until the rest of the French army came to its aid. Eventually, La Sarre with the help of the rest of the French army, managed to push the enemy off the battlefield.
215:. La Sarre took a few casualties along the way. A stray cannon shot took off a soldiers arm as well. The regiment was then charged to entrench themselves on Isle de Bourbon, but this was short-lived. Eventually the regiment met the same fate as the rest of the French presence in Canada. Regiment de la Sarre was placed on English boats returning to France. On 15 September the Regiment would leave Canada never to return. Of the 31 officers in the regiment 11 were killed and the rest were at some point injured. The Regiment would meet again in 1763 deployed in various European campaigns.
196:.This victory was absolutely decisive for the French crippling a much larger British force. RĂ©giment de la Sarre also played a significant role in this battle. La Sarre was commanded by de Savournin during the battle. During the Battle, de la Sarre took up the left flank along with the Languedoc regiment. The regiment lost a number of captains during the battle and perhaps took the heaviest French losses during the bloodiest and largest French victory of the war in North America. The regiment then participates in the battles of Montmorency,
