The <entity_1> took place on <entity_2>, at which a French force of 12,800 men commanded by Marshal Jean Lannes defeated a Prussian-Saxon force of 8,300 men under Prince Louis Ferdinand. The <entity_4> took place in Thuringia in what was the Ernestine duchy of Saxe-Coburg-<entity_3>. The <entity_4> was the second clash in the Prussian Campaign of the <entity_0>. At 5am on <entity_2>, Lannes with Louis-Gabriel Suchet's division and Anne-François-Charles Trelliard brigade of light cavalry of V corps began advancing down the road to <entity_3>, aware that a Prussian-Saxon force was in front of them. Knowing that the main body of the army under Hohenlohe was due to advance across the River <entity_5> on <entity_2>, Prince Louis therefore decided that his forces needed to stop the French column from either crossing the <entity_5> at <entity_3> and interfering with Hohenlohe’s movements or from moving up the western side of the <entity_5> to Rudolstadt, which they would reach before Brunswick’s army. At 7am Prince Louis began concentrating his troops at <entity_3>, and by 9am he had arranged his forces for <entity_4>. The troops were arranged in a line stretching from in front of <entity_3> to behind Crösten and Beulwitz facing the woods the covered the hills above <entity_3> and the <entity_5> valley.
