As the Westphalians move towards the town, the Russians attack.   One German division is sent to take the town, the remainder take up a defensive position just east of the bridge.   The Russians reinforce the garrison, but eventually lose the town and are forced to retreat south.  However the two brigades rout east from the town, losing contact with the corps.
