First Silesian War
[edit]- ... that Prussia entered a secret armistice with Austria in October 1741, but Frederick the Great pretended to continue fighting the First Silesian War for another two months? Source: "KLEIN-SCHNELLENDORF, 9th OCTOBER, 1741: ... There shall be, nay in a sense, there hereby is, a Peace made; ... these sham-hostilities, but only sham, shall continue; and that his Majesty, wintering in Bohemia, and carrying on sham-hostilities [to the satisfaction of the French], shall pay his own expenses, and do no mischief." (Carlyle, Thomas (1858). History of Friedrich II of Prussia, Called Frederick the Great. Vol. Book XIII.)
