I have a good suggestion- you should react to Sabaton “Sarajevo” and “Versailles” at the same time because they are both short songs and of course Sarajevo should be done first 😊 because they are the songs that start and finish the album The War to End All Wars.

About Poles by Sabathon? 40:1, Uprising, Aces in exile, Final solution, Inmate 4859. Awsome History made by incredible Swedish band. I love them for that. BTW - there was a death penalty in those times if U sold the horse abroad, trained to be ridden by a Hussar. I love your Historical knowledge being put in this reaction. Greetings from Poland!

Polish king, Jan III Sobieski, took part in the charge riding in front of his hussars himself. Moreover, his 15 year old only son, Jakub, was charging at his side as well.

@@ToonStory-fh4gn You may have forgotten, but at this time Polish Kings were elected, and Jan III Sobieski before becoming king was Hetman Wielki Koronny, which means that he was the supreme commander of Polish forces, not mistake with supreme commander of all Commonwealth soldier, Lithuania has separate supreme commander, the Hetman Wielki Litewski. And Jan III Sobieski, as hetman, had long experience with wars against Ottomans. The title of Hetman Wielki can be roughly translated as military Grand Marshal, or literally as Grand Hetman, they have vices too, Hetmanowie Polni (field marshals/Field hetmans). During peacetime, the Grand Hetman remained at the court, dealing with general administration and guarding the interests of the army. The main task of the Field Hetmans was to protect the south-eastern Ukrainian and Lithuanian borderlands of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth against invasions from neighboring countries. They were the direct superior of the local defense units and later of the Quart soldiers. Field hetmans were responsible for intelligence, reconnaissance, and conducting ad hoc battles (e.g. against Cossacks or Tatars). During the battle, under the authority of the Grand Hetman, they commanded the less prestigious left wing, and in its absence, they took over command.

They say that when Polish Hussars were attacking from the hill on full speed was that impressive that no one could hold them back. Their horses had to be able to carry ~100kgs on their backs - both the equipment of a hussar and him and also they were trained not only to be strong but also one of the fastest (they were combining the lineage of old Polish equines with those from Tatar tribes in the east, tto be able to reach such effect). Hussars themselves had lances ("kopia") that were about 24 feet (it's over 0.7m !) and it's stated by historians (not only polish ones lol) that they could take up several people in one "jab". So now imagine even few thousand of these man attacking at once even much bigger army. They'd stand no chance at such circumstances. The lances and wings (which made thundering sound when they were on fast speed) themselves were supposed to make opponents to be shocked and (then) scared before battle would even began.

And the earth must have shaken, their charge must have felt like the end of the world. I suppose the best solution would be to run for your life if you're up against these guys.

It's just a film, and no other film has ever managed to present the hussar attack as we know it from the sources. They attacked in a line started about 400 m long, in two ranks, as they gained momentum, the lines formed one formation and towards the end they were running knee to knee at a gallop. The tight formation was about 80 meters long and was longer than the standard regiment of pikemen at that time. Spears longer than pikemen's pikes. The impact was like hitting a board studded with nails. If they failed, they turned back and formed the formation again, taking new copies (these were for single use). Their retreat was covered by the so-called "pocztowi" - each hussar had to appear in their company, it was a light cavalry. The hussars were a complete war machine.

I love this song. This song and "The Last Stand" are the two songs that introduced me to Sabaton. I have a feeling that you will get to them eventually but some songs you should react to are Carolus Rex, Lion from the North, The Last Battle, The Lost Battalion, 82nd All the Way, and The Last Stand. These are just my personal favorites. Also, in regard to Sieges of Vienna, possibly one of my favorite quotes in history came from the 1529 siege. The Sultan boasting at the start of the siege that he will be having breakfast in the Viennese Cathedral in two weeks. When that day came and went, the Viennese sent him a letter telling him that his "breakfast is getting cold." lol

Well used and well commanded, the hussars were unstoppable in their best times, mainly in the 17th century, although they also had their moments of glory in the 16th century. The hussar lances could measure over 6 meters and wiped out enemy infantry. In addition, they had some kind of broadswords, also long ones, sabers and pistols. Hussar armor was made in such a way that it could stop bullets, especially from a longer distance. But the most important thing was the tactics of the attack - the hussars accelerated in a rather loose formation, only to quickly form a wedge just over 100 meters from the enemy lines. Hussar horses were specially trained to keep the line even when the hussar lets go of the reins, to have both hands free to fight. Selling such a horse abroad was punishable by death in Poland. Jan III Sobieski was an excellent king-commander, previously the commander-in-chief of the Polish-Lithuanian army (Great Hetman). He knew how to defeat the Turks, and they feared him like the plague. And just like in medieval times, Sobieski did not hesitate to charge at the head of his army. He had a French wife, called Marysieńka in Poland, and they loved each other very much. Sobieski was also a talented writer, his love letters to Marysieńka are considered pearls of love prose in Polish literature. After the Battle of Vienna, he was supposed to say, travesting the famous quote from Cesar: "we came, we saw, God won" :)

Yes, they wore wings in battle. They scared other horses and had a psychological effect.

Yes probably not, the movie itself does not look very realistic

actually few things and im gonna be that guy so 6 meeters not 5 i mean someone would say whatever 1 meter difference who cares but in that time 1 meter was ur death or his death as well as they charged from the left wing because it was the most prestigious and king Sobieski said that if hes not gonna be on the left and not gonna lead whole thing hes coming back to Poland and nto only that during Battle of Khotyn in 1673 Sobieski wasnt a king then but he was Grand Hetman of the Crown and asked Habsurgs for help but the answer he received was something like this "Poles, advise yourselves". but Sobieski was happy they asked him for help because he knew without his help Turks will destroy Vienna in no time so it was convenient to fight on austrian soil safe for poles so he used austrians and others from HRE as a deyoc or battle meat to focus ottoman forces on them and wanted them to push ottomans towards vienna so he coudl strike from the back but it wasnt easy 26 cannons and over 14k horsmen and had to go upwards to the hill it took him 2 days to do that. After that there were few other battles for edxample Battles of Parkany which was the key win to the whole vienna thing. And afte that fun fact pope thanked Sobieski for help and Sobieski's reply was "venimus vidimus deus vicit" (Julius Cesar quote) kidna sad austria forgot that and in less than 100 yeras they took part in 1st partition of Poland. Ahh and almostr forgot Kara Mustafa didnt died during battle of Vienna but later after other battles when he came back to Belgrad and there leader of the Janissaries simply ghave him silk rope and we dont know if he hanged himself or was strangled
