Siege and retreat near Grozka amid Turkish counterattack
Dispatch from Servia July 23 recounts Wallis marching with 14 regiments of horse and 18 grenadier companies to confront a Turkish force near Semendria and Grozka. A night flank maneuver by General Bernelau repulsed attackers, while Pallavicini and Neuperg reinforced, leaving heavy casualties and reports of 2,000 to 3,000 Imperial losses. The fleet actions on the Danube hindered enemy movement as the army fell back to its prior position.
