Grunberg for Lasalle (IV). The fight on the hill

After the break of the first Austrian line, the French advanced against the hill near Hohenlichte, one of the keys to the Austrian position.

The 11e Legere breaks the 2/Gyulai IR....
... and then advances uphill, sweeping aside the surprised Austrian artillerymen...
.. and forcing the Austrian infantry downhilll...
... engaging them aftewards in a fierce firefight...
... but in the subsequent charge, the 1/11e Legere is rejected and falls back...
... only to be crushed by the flank attack of the 1/Warasdiner Kreuzer Grenzer
The situation reachs a sort of stalemate in this area
