11 October 1813 – Rosenheim Campaign – Day 9


Both armies rest, resupply and regroup, they also start to receive replacements for their battle casualties.

The general retreat of the allied army has left 10th Bavarian corps very exposed east of Wassenburg.   Oudinot orders them to retreat towards Holzkirchen, and to move the depot there.  

Schwartzenberg fails to take advantage of this retreat, because the movement is screened from 2nd Corps by the mountains.   And in addition he is concentrating on reorganising his supply system.   He has ordered a concentration of supplies close to the river Isar in preparation for an advance over the river.
