The Duc du Richelieu, while waiting for suitable employment, has taken command of the French forces on the southern coast around Toulon.
In 1757 following Frederick the Great's sudden invasion of Bohemia, he had been given command of a relief force that was to relieve the Siege of Prague.
However this had been cancelled when an Austrian army defeated Frederick at Kolín, forcing him to break off the siege and withdraw from Bohemia.
