Prussia faces the Russian Bear ⚔️ The Battle of Gross-Jägersdorf, 1757
In August 1757, Prussia faced the Russian bear for the first time. Because of the lack of knowledge about Russian warfare at the time (the only points of reference were Sweden’s Great Northern War and the Russo-Turkish wars), nobody in Europe knew what to expect when facing a Russian army.
I think it’s safe to say that what the Russians lacked in discipline and formal training, they made up for in numbers (as they will do so often in history).
The Battle of Gross-Jägersdorf could have been a watershed moment and seen the destruction of Prussia’s eastern flank. Instead, it appeared Frederick the Great had fortune on his side once again.
