The next morning, the combat meeting convened again, and Zhu Wencong attended with Su Yanqiao. The initial victory in yesterday's battle was satisfactory to the whole nation.
The Berlin Post commented: The fraternal bond of the German people has withstood the test of war and is unbreakable.
Today, heavy rain started to pour, halting the war, and the immediate priority was dealing with the bodies on the battlefield.
This heavy rain provided the French Army a chance to catch their breath, allowing them to retreat and prepare for the next round of Prussian offensive; both sides need time for preparation.
Frederick III first summarized the gains and losses of yesterday's war and then proceeded to issue new combat orders, opting to split the troops for separate actions.
At this moment, the Prussian First Corps and Second Corps launched attacks on the French Rhein Corps, allowing the Third Corps to enter the Vosges Mountains to join the battle.
