Danish Army Struggles Amid Swedish Threats and Hard Winter
Letters describe Danish troops under arms for days as Swedes threaten and Denmark endures severe weather. Mortality rises among officers and soldiers due to fatigues and lack of provisions. Horse casualties mount, with remounts sought from Privy Council stock and regiments moving toward Elsinore and Elfinburg. Allied dispatches note French and Muscovite movements, port preparations, and fortification efforts along Lys and frontiers as broader campaign plans unfold in March.
