Bombardment and Siege of Dantzick Stir Up Diplomacy
In Petersburgh on March 12 foreign ministers urged intercession for Dantzick but were told by Count de Munich and General Larci that the magistracy refused proposals. The Russian fleet heads to Cronstadt, and the siege continues with heavy artillery arriving. Reports from Hamburg and Paris note Polish resistance, support from abroad, and possible kingly actions as Stanslaus may lead a combined force.
