The Treaty of Ried of 8 October 1813 was signed between Bavaria and Austria. By this treachery, Bavaria deserted the Confederation of the Rhine and agreed to join the Sixth Coalition against Napoleon in exchange for a “ guarantee ” of her continued sovereign and independent status. On 14 October, Bavaria made a formal declaration of war against French. The treaty was passionately backed by the Crown Prince Louis and by General von Wrede. Von Wrede tried to block the Emperor ’ s retreat to France and the Bavarian Army was routed at Hanau.
