Battles fought during campaign phase
Napoleon won the other three, including the final one for Wismar
The Prussian victories had been technical rather than decisive
In most cases they had avoided defeat by retreating
They had then been too weak to fight for a second day
This was particularly true at Ludwigslust where the Prussians won the first battle
But were crushed when they fought a second day
At the end of the campaign the Prussians had been forced to retreat to Magdeburg district
The campaign started in February and ended in April 2024
Napoleon ordered his army to deploy in and around Wismar
Blucher ordered his army to retreat to Magdeburg
