VI and Korps
One of the senior generals, Johann von Hiller, commander of VI Korps was overtly critical of Charles's strategy and resigned on 4 July, on the eve of the battle of Wagram, pretexting health reasons.

The commander of Austrian VI Korps, Feldmarshalleutnant Klenau, whose force was in the vicinity, also with orders to delay the French advance, tried to relieve the soldiers from defenders, but they were successfully checked by Jacob François Marulaz's French cavalry from IV Corps.
As the French were successfully moving forward, the Austrian Advance Guard, under Feldmareschalleutnant Nordmann, supported by Feldmareschalleutnant Klenau's VI Korps, in all 25, 000 infantrymen, were gradually withdrawing northwards.
Meanwhile, Nordmann's slow retreat allowed Klenau's VI Austrian Korps, which had been placed in an advanced position too, to make a skillful fighting retreat westwards, taking few losses.
The Austrian army was now deployed on a very wide ark-shaped frontage, 19 kilometers long, including Klenau's VI Korps on the far right, then Kollowrat's III Korps on the right-centre, Hohenzollern's II Korps and Bellegarde's 1st Korps behind the Russbach line in central position, while Rosenberg's IV Korps covered the right.

In application of Archduke Charles's plan to take the enemy in double envelopment, Feldmarshalleutnant Klenau, commanding VI Korps and Feldzeugmeister Kollowrat, commanding III Korps, moved forward towards the French left.
Had Kollowrat moved forward himself, protecting Klenau's left flank, the Austrian VI Korps might have envisaged the continuation of its action, but, as things were, Kollowrat had not yet moved from his position between Süssenbrunn and Breintlee.
The Emperor did not want to commit his valuable, fresh infantry reserves just yet, so he ordered Masséna to break contact with the enemy and take his IV Corps southwards and attack the Austrian VI Korps.
Masséna was to continue his march south and vigorously attack Klenau around Aspern, Oudinot was ordered to prepare his Corps for an assault against the plateau and dislodge Austrian II Korps, Eugène was to take VI Corps against the enemy forces at Deutsch-Wagram, while MacDonald's V Corps was to draw closer to Aderklaa.
On the French left, Feldmarschalleutnant Klenau, commander of VI Korps, was fully aware of Masséna's manoeuvre, stating in his post-battle report that he saw an " Infernal Column " advancing towards him.
On his right, Kollowrat's III Korps, Klenau's VI Korps and the Reserve Korps were being pushed back.
This persuaded Archduke Charles that he had left III Korps in an exposed position and ordered it to hasten their retreat and get in line with VI Korps.
