The Swedish southern army of Finland, consisting of roughly four thousand men under Major General von Vegesack, is moved from Åland to Finland, and lands at Kristinestad in late autumn, joining with Georg Carl von Döbeln's forces.
However, as Vegesack had been ordered to land his men at Björneborg, the king, after pursuing the matter unsuccessfully in military tribunals, will condemn Vegesack to lose his rank and title.
