Veronias Verona Campaign Retains French Advantage

Reports from the Italian theater describe Moreau’s left division driving the enemy across the Adige and to the Verona glacis, taking 4000 prisoners while other French divisions pressed gains. Despite a costly retreat ordered at night, Moreau and Delmas steadied the retreat and halted the pursuit, with Montenuovo-like losses quoted and reinforcements awaited as headquarter shifts occur toward Crema and Mantua. The fleet movements from Brest and Paris notes hint at further operations in the Gulf of Spezzia and Lombardy, as Switzerland endures bread shortages and negotiations for peace loom.
