Once reinforcements arrived, in 1807 he began a second invasion that culminated in his defeat and the restoration of Spain's power in the Río de la Plata with Santiago de Liniers as viceroy. This was the second and last English invasion although, technically, it was only one invasion.

Nor was it only English since, among the invaders, there were also Scots.
