Turbulent European War News from Amsterdam and Madrid
From the Amsterdam Gazette and Madrid reports: money scarcity drives extraordinary measures as Castilian annuities are suspended for a year and the king foresees this to be the war’s last year. Vendome’s army shows reduced readiness, with famine deaths and heavy losses for provisions. Recruits rise, funds unlock corn and horse purchases, and various garrisons shift to winter quarters amid rising disorder among volunteers and Miquelets. Reports also note Danish and Dutch diplomacy, Swedish and Polish movements, and fear of renewed hostilities in the Palatinate with French and Spanish forces on alert.
