German author Bacchus in the "Allgemeine Zeitung" in 1876: Serbs and Montenegrins ae not Westerners

The Serbian defeat at Teschitsa (Tešica) and Supovac and the Montenegrin defeat at Zagoni against Albanian and Ottoman forces in 1876

Cited:

“Ragusa, September 4: The Turks have invaded Montenegro from two sides. Mukhtar Pasha advanced unopposed from Trebinje on Saturday to Zagoni and Zaslap, an hour from the border. Behind Zagoni, the Turks encountered the first resistance. Simultaneously, an invasion occurred from the Albanian side.”

“Viddin, September 2: On Friday, the Serbs attacked the Turks, who were entrenched at Treshitsa, and pushed them back to Suppovacs: The approaching reinforcements enabled the Turks to resume the offensive. The Serbs were driven back beyond Teschitsa, and the Turks captured a redoubt located directly on the Morava River. The Serbs retreated to the right. Today, the barrage shells from Nish reached Teschitsa.”
