1 Thiessen. Waiting for Ney. September 3, 1813 Routed at Gross Beeren, Oudinot s Army of Berlin is retiring, cautiously pursued by Bernadotte, towards Wittenberg in the north bank of the Elbe. The Prussian advance guard of the Borstell s 5 th Brigade, accompanied by Bulow, commander of the Prussian 3 rd Corps, is pursuing the rearguard of the Bertrands s IV Corps that is deployed near Thiessen in the road to Wittenberg. At 6 a.m. of September 3, the 5 th Brigade along elements of the 6 th Brigade and the Dobschutz s brigade (from the Tauentzien s IV Corps) started its attack against the Italian and Wurttemberg troops of the Bertrand s Corps. After a combat of several hours and unsupported by Bernadotte, Bulow decided to break the fight and retired unmolested by Bertrand. The next day, Ney would arrive to take command of the Army of Berlin. This Lasalle Scenario is based on that combat. Sources F. Nafziger.
