Siege News from Crescentino and Italian Fronts
From Milan and Rome advices describe a tougher assault on Crescentino Fort and a plan to pull the bridge toward the Po. The Duke of Savoy reportedly moves into the Fort and Verrue, while a new redoubt may shift fire away from the river. Reports also note shifting Catholic Protestant tensions, levies for Venetians, and a possible league to block Austrian troop movements under Prince Eugene, with Geneva recounting a Protestant assembly dispersed by forces.
