Relation of Hochkirchen to the Siege of Neiss in 1758
The Berlin Gazette reports military movements during the Hochkirchen affair and the subsequent raising of the siege of Neiss. Austrian forces under General Harsch threaten Neiss. King Augustus plans a relief march from Lusatia, crossing via Gorlitz and Laudon, while Daun strengthens forces to contest the campaign. The narrative notes pontoon losses, the pursuit of the enemy to Ziegenhals, and marks the campaign as near its end.
