De Mourier's Plan for the Austrian Revolutionary War

After the allied army abruptly turned around following the battle of valmi in september 17 92, French general du murier made no effort to inter with the retreat. Instead he sent emissaries to the prussian leaders, asking if they wanted to cut a deal. De mourier was of the opinion that france and prussia were natural allies, given their mutual hatred of the austrians. After talks broke down, de mourier then returned to his original plan, abold invasion of the austrian netherlands.
