Years: 1757 - 1757
August
The Hanoverian government retreats with Cumberland via Verden to Stade, Bremen-Verden's capital and a port town connected to the North Sea by the River Elbe.
Although it is well-fortified and can be supplied from sea, Cumberland believes their situation to be precarious.
The proposal that a large number of British reinforcements be diverted to Stade is rejected, and the British expedition is sent to its original destination of Rochefort, although it is launched too late to do anything to provide a diversion in support of Cumberland.
