Gathering in Pruszlaska

The Gathering in Pruzlaska was a conflict early in the Rictuvian Revolution between Rictuvian Insurgents and the Verdictine army in the city of Pruzlaska and its nearby forest.

At the start of the revolution, many Rictuvians prepared to fight against the Verdictine Empire.

Conflict
On May 9, local revolutionaries and insurgents, led by Baron Erris Porschel and Laurencjusz Kasowski, gathered in the city of Pruzlaska and the forest nearby to communicate and plan attacks against the Verdictine Empire. The Rictuvians numbered around 350. The Verdictine troops stationed in Posmisze immediately caught word of the gathering, and gathered troops to arrest the insurgents.

On May 10, 1771, the Verdictine troops marched to Pruzlaska, commanded by Gilbert Milers. The Rictuvian and Verdictine troops met outside the city.

Milers demanded the surrender of the RIctuvian troops and officers, which Porschel turned down. As negotiations failed, Milers ordered his men to open fire.

The insurgents were positioned in a good area among the city buildings and trees. The skirmish ended after a few hours, with Porschel ordering the insurgents to spread out and retreat away.

There were no casualties in the encounter, with only a several hundred of the insurgents wounded and an unknown number of wounded on the Verdictine side. The Rictuvian Revolution initially began the next day.
