The Battle of Maxen was a fierce encounter in the Seven Years' War. On that fateful day, the Austrian army, under the command of Field Marshal Daun, sprang a surprise ambush on the unsuspecting Prussian army led by General Finck. The Prussians were taken off guard, but they fought back with relentless determination, striking back at the enemy with ferocity.
