Dantzick Siege Details End With French Capitulation
From the camp before Dantzick June 25 reports say a French demand for a 48 hour armistice led to negotiations with General Munich and Duke Weiffenfels. The capitulation set French regiments to sail on Russian ships to a Baltic port, surrender arms at sea, and be escorted by Swedish troops to Sweden. Wechfelmunde fortress fell. Dantzick garrison still resists. A royal pardon for the French officers and suspensions are noted, junto with court intrigue surrounding Count Pleto and Polish leaders. King Stanislaus reportedly attempted escape but was blocked by a domestic traitor.
