Campaign Move 25


1200 10th September 1813

The surrender of 1st Austrian corps presented General Wrede with a problem.

The broken Austrian brigades were spread over a wide area, and would require rounding up and then escorting to Munich as prisoners.  

On the other hand he could hear the sound of battle from the directing of Withering.

His two divisons were running low on supplies, and a move to the south to support 8th corps at Withering ran the risk of 1st Austrian corps regrouping and posing a  renewed threat to Rohrbach.

He ordered 9th division, who has suffered the most casualties during the recent battle, to round up the Austrians and escort them to Munich.

10th division would spend the day regrouping and resupplying at Rohrbach, and prepare to march south should that prove necessary.
