North German Confederation The battle of Chevilly was fought during the siege of Paris.

On 30 September 1870 General Joseph Vinoy attacked the Prussian VI Corps at Chevilly and was easily repulsed.

The Prussian VI Corps commanded by General von Trumpling[2][3] repulsed an attempt by the French army from Paris led by General Joseph Vinoy.

The Crown Prince of Prussia, later Emperor Frederick III of Germany, wrote in his diary:General Vinoy - who commanded a corps including all regular forces finally of France during the war, has conducted an "attack reconnaissance" nonsense on the left bank of the Seine on September 30, 1870: with 20,000 men, under the cannons of the fortresses of Bicêtre and Ivry, he proceeded to raid the villages of L'Hay, Chevilly and Thiaïs.
