Siege and retreat amid 1760 Austrian Prussian clashes
Reports from Aug to Sept 1760 recount Austrian Field Marshal Laudohn’s failed assault on Hochkirchy and Katzbach heights, Prussian countermeasures, heavy casualties on both sides, and a strategic retreat ordered by Pa ssians officers. The London Gazette adds prisoner tallies and a Prussian victory notice near Lignitz.
