Russian Campaign Reports Detail Prussian Dragoons and Russian Losses
The dispatches describe Prussian Dragoons under Major Stiern and General Grawert pushing toward Riga, with 400 prisoners, 150 wagons of supplies, and a bold breakthrough near Oosvrath. Marshal the Duke of Reggio advances from Pulotsk, clashing near Sebei and Drissa, where Legrand and Verdier’s divisions repel 15,000 Russians, capture artillery, chests, and prisoners, amid praise for Legrand and the 26th light infantry. The Russian emperor orders levies but gains little as Russian morale falters.
