07 prussians arrive

Wellington had been exchanging communications with General

Blücher, commander of the Prussian army, since 10am and knew he was approaching from the east.

The Prussians arrived at roughly 4.30pm and, noting the village of Plancenoit on Napoleon’s right flank was a tactically important position, began to attack the French forces there. However, after initially taking the village, French forces reclaimed it.
