The Austrian supply system is now fully operational
In
the north 1st Austrian army advance within attack distance of
Falkenberg
In
the centre 2nd Austrian army attack Marktl
In
the south 3rd Austrian army retreat having failed to take Burghausen
The second battle of Marktl was a short but very brutal one. Both armies were weakened by previous battle casualties. Aware that he needed a quick victory, Merveldt ordered 1st army to attack without the usual artillery barrage. He suffered heavy casualties, but he won the battle
