At the start of 1794, the 1st and 2nd Battalions garrisoned [[Denain]] and later [[Mons, Belgium|Mons]].{{sfn|Wrede|1898|p=498}} Three battalions of the ''Callenberg'' Regiment were present at the [[Siege of Landrecies (1794)|Siege of Landrecies]] and at the [[Battle of Beaumont (1794)|Battle of Beaumont]] on 26 April 1794.{{sfn|Smith|1998|pp=75–76}} The 2nd Battalion fought at [[Ingelmunster]] on 12 May, which was part of the [[Battle of Courtrai (1794)|Battle of Courtrai]].{{sfn|Smith|1998|p=78}} The 3rd Battalion was captured at the [[Siege of Ypres (1794)|Siege of Ypres]].{{sfn|Smith|1998|p=85}} Two battalions of the ''Callenberg'' Regiment fought at the [[Battle of Fleurus (1794)|Battle of Fleurus]] on 26 June.{{sfn|Smith|1998|p=87}} One battalion was captured at the Siege of Valenciennes on 27 August and was released, not to fight against France until exchanged.{{sfn|Smith|1998|p=90}}{{sfn|Wrede|1898|p=498}}<ref group=note>Wrede (p. 498) stated that the 1st Battalion was captured at Valenciennes while Smith (p. 90) asserted it was the 2nd Battalion.</ref>
[[Image:Arcole vernet.jpg|left|thumb|200px|Battle of Arcole by Horace Vernet]]
During the third relief of Mantua, Mittrowsky's 3,000-man brigade held the upper [[Brenta River]] valley as a link between the [[County of Tyrol|Tyrol]] Corps and the [[Friuli|Friaul]] Corps. After [[Jozsef Alvinczi]] reached the Brenta with the Friaul Corps, Mittrowsky joined it and participated in the [[Second Battle of Bassano]] on 6 November 1796.<ref>Boycott-Brown, p 447, 449, 458</ref> ▼
 
Mittrowsky received promotion to the rank of [[major general|Generalmajor]] (GM) on 30 April 1796 to date from 19 February 1795.{{sfn|Schmidt-Brentano|2006|p=65}} During the first relief of the [[Siege of Mantua (1796–1797)|Siege of Mantua]], he led a brigade in [[Feldmarschall-Leutnant]] (FML) [[Paul Davidovich]]'s III Column which had a total strength of 8,274 infantry, 1,618 cavalry, 32 position guns, and 8 howitzers.{{sfn|Boycott-Brown|2001|p=378}} Detached from his parent column, Mittrowsky's brigade occupied the Chiusa fort and scouted toward [[Verona]].{{sfn|Boycott-Brown|2001|pp=381–383}} At the [[Battle of Castiglione]] on 5 August, Mittrowsky helped defend the right flank against [[André Masséna]]'s attacks.{{sfn|Boycott-Brown|2001|p=401}}
When Bonaparte suddenly crossed the [[Adige River]] on the morning of 15 November, Mittrowsky lay nearby with three battalions.<ref>Boycott-Brown, p 460</ref> He played a prominent role during all three days of the [[Battle of Arcole]]. By early afternoon on the first day, his troops reinforced the village of [[Arcole]]. By virtue of seniority, Mittrowsky assumed command over the soldiers of [[Colonel]] Wenzel Brigido as well as his own. His troops stubbornly held the village all day, but the French forced his troops out of Arcole late that evening. He reoccupied the place when Bonaparte withdrew the isolated French force. On the second day, Alvinczi entrusted him with 14 battalions and gave him instructions to drive the French into the Adige. The order proved impossible to carry out because the French were too numerous, but Mittrowsky's capable defense of Arcole on the 16th kept Bonaparte's troops at bay. On 17 November he came close to defeating Bonaparte. The French finally drove the Austrians from the village at 5 pm on the third day, but only after drawing troops from the other wing of their army.<ref>Boycott-Brown, p 474-475</ref>
 
▲DuringAt the start of the third relief of Mantua, Mittrowsky's 3,000-man brigade held the upper [[Brenta River]] valley as a link between the [[County of Tyrol|Tyrol]] Corps to the north and the [[Friuli|Friaul]] Corps to the east.{{sfn|Boycott-Brown|2001|p=447}} After army commander FZM [[Jozsef Alvinczi]] reached the Brenta with the FriaulFriuli Corps, Mittrowsky joinedmoved itto andjoin its right wing.{{sfn|Boycott-Brown|2001|p=449}} After heavy participatedfighting in the [[Second Battle of Bassano]] on 6 November 1796.<ref>Boycott-Brown, pMittrowsky's 447brigade, 449which numbered about 3,000 458</ref>men, was still coming up in the rear of Alvinczi's main body.{{sfn|Boycott-Brown|2001|p=458}}
Mittrowsky missed the [[Battle of Rivoli]] in January 1797, being employed in guarding the Brenta valley with a 3,500-man brigade.<ref>Boycott-Brown, p 474-475</ref>
 
When Bonaparte's French army suddenly crossed the [[Adige River]] on the morning of 15 November 1796, Oberst Wenzel Brigido's 4 battalions held [[Arcole]] and [[San Bonifacio]] while Mittrowsky's 3 battalions lay at [[Cologna Veneta]].{{sfn|Boycott-Brown|2001|p=460}} The initial French attacks in the [[Battle of Arcole]] were repelled by 2 battalions of Brigido's Croats defending the village. By 12:30 pm, the first of Mittrowsky's soldiers began to arrive at Arcole and by 3:00 pm all his troops were present. Bonaparte personally led a charge on Arcole, but it was repulsed like all earlier attacks. In the evening, a French force finally seized Arcole.{{sfn|Boycott-Brown|2001|pp=462–466}}
 
Mittrowsky reoccupied Arcole when Bonaparte withdrew the isolated French force. On 16 November, Alvinczi entrusted Mittrowsky with 14 infantry battalions and 2 cavalry squadrons from the brigades of Oberst Franz Sticker and GM [[Anton Schübirz von Chobinin]]. Alvinczi instructed him to attack at dawn, in conjunction with a second column under FML [[Giovanni Marchese di Provera]]; they were to drive the French back to the Adige. Mittrowsky's column made good progress, but when Provera's column was beaten, Mittrowsky's men lost heart and fell back. Mittrowsky then capably defended Arcole, and his troops repulsed repeated French attacks for the remainder of the day.{{sfn|Boycott-Brown|2001|pp=467–469}} On 17 November, after heavy fighting all day, the French finally captured Arcole at 5:00 pm and Mittrowsky withdrew his troops to San Bonifacio. With his army no longer in a defensible position, Alvinczi ordered a retreat. In three days of fighting, the Austrians sustained 6,211 casualties.{{sfn|Boycott-Brown|2001|pp=470–476}} Mittrowsky missed the [[Battle of Rivoli]] in January 1797, being employed in guarding the [[Valsugana]] with a brigade consisting of 3,497 infantry and 73 cavalry.{{sfn|Boycott-Brown|2001|pp=491–492}}

The French prevailed in the first two actions while the Austrians won at Legnago.{{sfn|Smith|1998|pp=149–150}} At Legnago, Mittrowsky commanded 2,186 soldiers that belonged to 2 battalions of ''vacant ex-Priess'' Infantry Regiment Nr. 24.{{sfn|Acerbi|2007}} At the [[Battle of Magnano]] on 5 April, Mittrowsky led a brigade in FML [[Karl Mercandin]]'s division consisting of Infantry Regiments Nr. 24 and ''[[Michael von Fröhlich|Frelich]]'' Nr. 28. Mercandin was killed at Magnano{{sfn|Smith|1998|p=151}} and the division was subsequently led by FML [[Konrad Valentin von Kaim]], but the source does not say if Mittrowsky served at the [[Battle of Cassano (1799)|Battle of Cassano]].{{sfn|Duffy|1999|p=50}} Mittrowsky served under Kaim at the Siege of Turin which fell on 20 June 1799 after a 10 day investment.

During the [[Battle of Novi (1799)|Battle of Novi]] on 15 August 1799, Mittrowsky fought with the left wing under the overall supervision of FZM [[Michael von Melas]].{{sfn|Duffy|1999|p=136}}{{sfn|Smith|1998|p=163}} Mittrowsky led 2 battalions of the ''[[Karl Aloys zu Fürstenberg|Fürstenberg]]'' Infantry Regiment Nr. 36 and 2 squadrons of the ''Lobkowitz'' Dragoon Regiment Nr. 10. His troops advanced south and then swung west, keeping on the left of the two grenadier brigades. The French repulsed the right-hand grenadier brigade, but the second brigade and Mittrowsky's troops outflanked them and forced them to retreat.{{sfn|Duffy|1999|pp=144–145}} On 13 October 1799, Mittrowsky with 6 battalions and 4 squadrons attacked 2,000 French troops in [[Beinette]], driving them out. The French returned and a see-saw battle occurred which the Austrians won, capturing 465 French soldiers.{{sfn|Acerbi|2009a}} Mittrowsky was elevated in rank to Feldmarschall-Leutnant on 2 October 1799, to date from 17 September 1799.{{sfn|Schmidt-Brentano|2006|p=65}} Mittrowsky commanded the second column at the [[Battle of Genola]] on 4–5 November. His force included the Infantry Regiments ''Reisky'' Nr. 13 (1,120 men), ''[[Ludwig, Baron of Terzi|Terzi]]'' Nr. 16 (718 men), and ''Joseph Mittrowsky'' Nr. 40 (846 men).{{sfn|Acerbi|2009b}}
