Wethau (IV) The fight near the bridge

The fight near the Wethau bridge is becoming general. The arriving Austrian reinforcements, 1sdt and 2nd battalion of the von Strauch#24 IR (1st Brigade/1st division/II Corps)are running at full speed to help the 1/Brooder Grenz.

But the Croats are broken by the 2/17e Légère

Meanwhile, the 1/von Strauch#24 IR finishes the almost broken 2/58e Ligne after a fierce hand-to-hand combat

And then routs easily the combined attack of the 6/121e and 6/122e Ligne battalions

While their comrades of the 2/von Strauch#24 IR also breaks the 2/17e Légère near the woods

The French infantry is having a very poor performance!
