Swedish Troops Enter Hamburgh Amid Danish Turmoil
Reports from Hamburgh May 21 describe two battalions of Swedish troops entering the city as Danish forces withdrew two days earlier. The Swedish advance, aided by Russian General Von Tettenborn, followed a failed enemy assault on the town between May 19 and 20. The arrival occurred at the stone gate with a burgher guard band, while more Swedish troops march toward Hamburg and Elt. Updates from Rogen indicate Crown Prince is landing and preparing to enter, with eight thousand men previously arriving but delayed by a storm. The Allied front lines note repeated enemy losses in rear engagements around Bischoffswerda and Gede, as the Austrian ambassador denies any offensive alliance. Additional items include Bulow’s corps movements and a Norwegian king’s address praising Danish ties and Danish loyalty.
