January
The French commander, Joachim Murat, had informed Bülow of Yorck's treason on January.
Later that day a letter arrived by messenger from Yorck himself.
The Convention of Tauroggen, signed by Diebitsch and Yorck, had "neutralized" the Prussian corps without consent of their king.
It also left the East Prussian border completely undefended.
The news had been received with the wildest enthusiasm in Prussia, but the Prussian court dared not yet throw off the mask, and an order had been dispatched suspending Yorck from his command pending a court-martial
