In January 1742 Austrian field marshal Ludwig Andreas von Khevenhüller successfully recaptured Linz and forced 10,000 French troops to surrender.[1] Other sources say that the French commander threatened to completely destroy the city, and was allowed to retreat his troops into Bavaria for the return of an intact Linz.[2]
