- Battle of Vaslui | How to Win Against a 100,000 Ottoman Army - Stephen The Great - Part 2
By the time Suleiman Pasha’s force had arrived in Moldavia, Stephen had already been preparing for their arrival. Much like other military geniuses of his time, the Moldavian prince enacted a combined policy of scorched earth and tactical sabotage. Wells were poisoned and any potential food or supplies left behind were burned and destroyed, leaving the already tired Ottomans after their long journey in an even more difficult position. Guerilla attacks followed and it seemed that Stephen and his men were off to a good start. The goal was to lure the Ottoman forces near Vaslui...

Hope to make one soon about Romanian War of Independence 🇷🇴 and about war less know, such as Russo-Moldova War 🇷🇺 🇲🇩 or better known as Transnistria War.
Can you tell me how can I make such a animations? like you do one your video
Can you make a video about annexation of Bessarabia and Moldova.
Salam MIRI account to din ki bad miliga watch is Ana mashgol hi
Make a video about Military occupations by the Soviet Union. In special one about Soviet occupation of Bessarabia and Northern Bukovina.
It's a crime that Stephen the Great is always overlooked when talking about great generals.
It is not. Only à idiot can say this. King Stephan is as Napoléon maybe far better because hé had less resources than the french general. 43 battles won on 47 Hé fought. 😊
Most Romanian rulers are overlooked
East European generals never received their worthy place .
Whether you’re against the Ottomans or the others
This battle was just pure genius on Stephan’s part.
Pure, genius.
"Moldavia was not my ancestors', was not mine, and is not yours, but belongs to our descendants and our descendants' descendants to the end of time."

For guy often depicted as a villainous vampire, Vlad sounds like a hero in this video.
Vlad was never depicted as a vampire. You are confusing the historical figure with the book and movie character. Vlad was only the inspiration for Bram Stoker because he was known for his cruelty.
Thats propaganda. Vlad is a hero not only to Romanians but to all Europeans. He fought the islamic hordes with very little ressources and managed to force a retreat of a 100,000 strong Ottoman army after completely demoralizing them by impaling 20,000 ottomans. He was a master of psychological and guerrilla warfare.
Otherwise known as Vlad the Impaler. He used impaling as a torture technique against his enemies.

Machiavelli wrote that in the book "the prince" (il principe):
"For a ruler, if you cannot strive for both loved and feared. Its better to be feared than loved. As fear is a better motivator tool for ruler to exert power".

Goes to show that no amount of troops can compensate for poor leadership and tactics on the Ottoman’s part. Though I’m sure the numbers are a little inflated to add some mystique to the battle.
later ottomans defeated stephen the great in battle of valea alba. and both had the same number. so they are not bad they are actually good at military.
@@odez5412 Romanians were always vastly outnumbered by the Ottomans. When Stefan lost the battle at Valea Alba he was vastly outnumbered in that battle.
@@Emanuel-E wikipedia doesnt say that. Also wikipedia also says that hungaria and poland were in moldovian side.

@@Emanuel-E en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Valea_Albă
Why and how could they have 150k? Even in this video it shows a huge battle that ottoman lost. How can they have 150k after 1 year? Lets say that they had that army. Why would mehmed attack a kingdom with 150k?

Aqqoyunids, a turkish country ruled most of the iran. It was a way bigger threat. And this battle happened,
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Otlukbeli
And he had 100k in that battle. So why would he attack moldovia with 150k? He attacked istanbul with 100k, and thats one of the most important things in history.
The sequel was worth the wait. Thanks for making it.

@@catalindale7296 I am Romanian as well, and I believe it is true he was one of the greatest heroes of Eastern Europe. Just like Ștefan cel Mare, Hunyad and Skanderberg, he is one of the heroes who temporarily halted Ottoman expansion into Eastern Europe.

Ștefan cel Mare ( Stefan The Great), was my childhood hero
Romania has had great characters in its history, there are many other heroes with great deeds.
The ottoman empire was a force to be reckon with and it's no small thing how the romanian rulers managed to stand in front of it. It took all their assests and intelligence to fight the ottomans and their internal enemies as well. I respect the history of my romanian ancestors and I also respect the turkish culture. Turkey has a lot of historical places and landmarks. I would like to visit Istanbul one day, it's full of history and movement, good food and monuments to see. Good video.

Principality of Moldavia was Romanian, why did Dimitrie Cantemir write that all inhabitants of Moldavia, Wallachia and Transylvania are Romanians, and descendants of the Romans since Trajan the Emperor? And Principality of Moldavia founded Romania in 1859, Alexandru Ioan Cuza was a Moldavian boyar, later Prince of Moldavia and days later Prince of Wallachia and created Romania.🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴🦅

One of the greatest Military Commander of Moldavia 🇲🇩🇷🇴
Of Romania !! Moldova is part of Romania since 1859
We cannot say that Mehmed massacred the Moldavians at Valea Alba when he had much greater losses. The Moldavians rejected them several times until Mehmed ordered a general attack. The Moldovans had to retreat and left behind 800 men to cover the retreat. Among these 800 there were very large losses.. Stefan did not lose so many soldiers, but he lost more than ten boyars from the Council of the country who were also fighting on the front line. Stefan could not use his entire army in this fight because he left part of his troops to protect his lands from the Tatar invasion that was taking place at the same time.

Verry good job, thanks!❤
Big ✝️ Hero.StefanThe Great
the tactics used were nothing short of genius. terrain, weather, guerilla tactics, and perfect positioning of troops. Suleiman had an army probably twice as large, but he did not know what to do with it. he was no Mehmed II. however, i am more impressed by the fact that such a small principality managed to raise such a large force. sure, only a few thousand were professional soldiers, the rest merely militia. still... the logistics to provide for such a force from such a small state is impressive, when during the crusades, the western countries could barely feed lesser armies, still in owe of roman ability to provide resources to so many over such long distances. while the ottomans here were many, they suffered scortched earth tactics, and feeding the soldiers so far from home was a huge problem. Stefan knew what he was doing.
But he lost and left his country 😂😂😂
@@user-cg2tw8pw7j Stefan lost? Or what do you mean?
*GUYS GREAT DOC !!!!!!!!!!!!*
Worth some mentions: The Ottomans attacked during winter, which was almost unheard of, they had never done it before and they didn't try it after (obviously why). They tried to surprise Stefan, they failed. Around 2/3 of Stefan's army were peasants, we can only assume that they were very poorly equipped and maybe simple spearmen.
The invasion of 1476 of Mehmet II was at first a huge success, they took most of the country but couldn't occupy any of the fortresses in the North. The decisive battle while it was a disaster for Moldova it was in doubt for a long time, Mehmet needed to use his personal guard to break through. Anyway, Stefan kept harassing, burning and when the Transylvanian army finally arrived Mehmet's retreat turned again into a rout. He had his army dispersed to control the country, easy to attack, the main army moved slow, there was also disease.... Mehmet started with 200.000 and under half of that managed to cross the Danube back. The war continued for 4 more years but the casualties were so big they were unsustainable for the Ottomans, I don't think it's unreasonable to say that this was one of the things that slowed down their expansion until Selim and Suleyman.

Stephen the Great the best Romanian military leader. Easily TOP 10 generals of all time.
Romania was first founded in 1859. For reference, that's 164 years ago. The Battle of Vaslui took place in 1475. That's 384 years before Romania was founded.
And?

It's important to note that 100,000 is probably exaggerated.
It is extremely unlikely that their number exceeded 45,000-50,000.
Still, the victory was impressive.
And for the Istanbul on 1453 Turks are telling their ancestors were 50-60.000 and they were finally 120-150.000 against 8000 defenders.

Wild how the romanians (Walachians) always ended up betraying the Moldavians. More Moldavians from the part thats under romania need to learn this
Hey lol. Romanians from all 3 principalities know all that and also that was the bloody rulers placed as puppets by the surrounding powers to collect their tribute. Rulers had to obey their masters, collect the taxes and join their wars with the mostly boyars armies, not of their own. Moldova also attacked other Romanian principalities on behalf of its masters in time. In those times was like that and the masses of populations had to follow their rulers. So cut the crap.
Let’s see Mehmed’s reaction when Skanderbeg easily defeats his 100.000-50.000 armies with only 8.000 man.

"Where were they excessively outnumbered? He had 40k troops against 100k Ottoman troops , and when you're on the offensive, you need 10 soldiers attacking for every 1 soldier defending to have a chance to conquer the defender?"
You confuse the battle in the fortress with the one in the open field!
3-1
Some chronicles noted 120k Ottomans and was a pitched battle, face to face, not a fortress siege. In that case the ratio should be at least 3:1.
I'm so grateful that he stood his ground and won. It's scary to imagine that these lands would have been converted to islam.
i think my main concern about this video is how tf that a pasha lead more army than the sultan himself, because on the next year mehmed 2 actually defeats stephan on valea alba with a lesser army number (atleast according to wikipedia) , so i cant help to wonder the number of ottoman army on vaslui is heavily exaggerated
Every trick in the book.
Impressive by the Moldavians, but these numbers seem way too big for this time period.
Well the numbers for the Ottomans are believable (they were able to get man from a fast emipre).
As for the Moldovian side, they were in a fight for survival so they would be able to get a lot of people too.
The only question would be. Was the Moldovian army all "professional" or was it partially farmers who wanted/needed to help to defend their homeland.
@@ChristiaanHW”oastea mica” was the army used in raids which was professional, “oastea mare” was the defending army seen as the last resort which was mainly composed of farmers and peasants. So yes, at Vaslui most of the able man in the kingdom fought without much of the necessary training
@@lotyogipityu7992 Cool fairy tales bro
Moldavians were referred as Vlachs, which means Romanians. And they were referring to themselves as Romanians too, take the example the writings of both Dimitrie Cantemir and Vasile Lupu who both where Prince's of Moldavia. Not to mention that Principality of Moldavia founded Romania in 1859
@@lotyogipityu7992 Are you mentally unwell? Vlachs was the historical exonym to the people of the Proto-Romanian branch, Aromanians is the second biggest group of the Proto-Romanian family, Romanians being the biggest, so of course they are called Vlachs. But why was Dragoș Vodă referred as a Vlach? Why did he take with him vlachs from Maramureș? And why was Moldavia referred as Boğdan Iflak, Eng: Bogdan's-Wallachia, Russo-Wallachia and Moldo-Wallachia by Turks, Greeks and even by the rulers themselves of the Principality? Why did St.Stephen the Great refer to Principality of Wallachia as "the other Wallachia" to the Venetians so that they wouldn't confuse it with his Principality? Short answer: Because they are Vlachs, aka Romanians
Finally us Romanian getting the spotlight after Albanians get credited of fighting the Ottomans single handledly
You mean us Moldovans? Dragostea din Tei is also ours like Stephen the Great. You are lucky the Russian Empire didn't annex the whole principality like it should have.

It was a very smart move on his part.
But the biggest deciding factor of this battle was the geographic advantage of the fog removing visibility. Without the fog, the plan couldnt have worked, and the Ottomans woupd have swept them all aside.
The victory is beyond impressive by numbers alone, but i wouldnt call the man "genius"
Thats the point using the terrain to your favor. Thats what a military genius does. Its not a coincidence he won 34 battles while losing only two. He strategically decided to use this terrain bc of the fog that was known to be present on the area during this time of the year. I recommend reading Sun Tzus art of war.
The place is a sunken mudded depression and the edges were forested. How did the Ottomans got into such place? What would you name a general who managed to attract an invading army of his country to follow him for a battle exactly in that place, at exactly that time, right when the fog also surrounds the place? Then to maneuver them like marionets to follow the music to the west, while the guns were at north east and the main army inside the forest, waiting behind at east. The small bridge to cut retreat, muddy place to nullify Ottoman cavalry movement advantage and also block or slow retreat.
The Ottoman Empire was one of the strongest respective empires in this world but they themselves have lost massively in this battle,good friends!!!🙏
Nah Ottoman Empire is heavily overhyped. Oh they conquered the Balkans and Large parts of North Africa. In North Africa, it is basically sand and camels. Balkans are not really fertile or do have any development. Same with Asia minor. They were average at best, mostly overhyped by Turks online.

_Letopisețul Țării Moldovei, scris probabil la Mânăstirea Coșula (jud. Botoșani) pentru Iordachi Cantacuzino (1780)_
Ultimul paragraf: „Așa și neamul acésta, de care scriem, a neamului țărilor acestora, numele drept și mai vechiu iaste *romănĭ* (Рoмьɴй), adecă râmleani, de la Roma. Acest nume de la descălecatul lor de Traian înpărat.
cât au trăit pănă la pustietatea lor de pre acéste locuri în munți, în Maramoreș și pe Olt, tot acest nume au ținut și țin și pănă astăzi și încă mai bine munténii decât moldovénii, că ei și acum zic și scriu *Țara Romănească, și românilor* (Цара Рoмьɴѣсь Шꙑ Рoмѫɴиʌoр) celor din Ardeal.
Iară străinii și țările împrejur le-au pus acest nume vlah, di pe vloh, cum s-au mai pomenit, valios, valasco, olah, voloșin, tot de streini sânt pusă acéste numere, de pre Italiia, cărora zic le vloh. Apoi mai târziu, turcii (…). Munténilor le zic turcii kara-vlah. Grecii le zic vlahos-bogdanos moldovenilor, iar munteanilor le zic vlahos. *Că acest nume, moldovean, ne iaste di pe apa Moldova,* după al doilea descălecatul aceștii țări de Dragoș Vodă. Și munteanilor, ori de pre munte, munteani, ori di pe Olt, olteani, că léșii așa le zic, molteani.
Măcară dar că și la istorii și la graiul streinilor și înde sine cu vréme, cu vacuri, cu primineale au dobândit și alt nume, dar acela carele iaste nume stă întemeiat și rădăcina rămâne. Cum vedem că, măcar că ne răspundem acum moldoveani, iar nu *întrebăm: știi moldoveneaște?, ci întrebăm știi romăneaște?, adecă râmleneaște, puțin nu zicem: sțis romanițe? pre limba latinească.*
Stă dar numele cel vechiu ca întâi neclătit, deși adaog ori vrémile îndelungate, ori streinii adaog și alte neamuri, dar cel ce iaste de rădăcină nu să mută. Și *așa iaste acestor țări și țării noastre, Moldovii și Țării Muntenești, numele cel drept de moșie, iaste români (Рoмѫɴй),* cum să răspund și acum cei din Țara Ungurească lăcuitori, și munteanii țara lor și scriu și răspund cu graiul: Țara Romănească (Цара Рoмьɴѣсь) […]”

Stihuri în stema domniei Moldovei
Deși vedzi căndva sămn groaznic,
să nu te miri cănd să aratâ putearnic.
Că putearnicul putearia-l închipuiaște,
și slăvitul podoaba-l schizmeaște.
Cap de buâr și la domnii Moldovenești,
ca putearia aceii hieri să o socotești,
De unde mari domni spre laudă ș-au făcut cale, de-acolo și Vasilie vodă au ceput lucrurile sale. Cu învățături ce în țara sa temeliuiaște, nemuritoriu nume pre lume știe zideaște.

thats a siege not a field battle

Always nice to se Ottomans losing.
ottoman 3rd roman empire even if you don't like it
@@hfggtr4243 ♥️💋
Loser Ottoman subjects discovered.A Serb who still hasn't survived the war in which 800 Turkish horsemen wiped out his empire.
always nice to see when balkanian great commanders getting slapped by mehmed the conquerer XD
in Varna 1444 Osmanli annilihated and killed 100,000-110,000 crusaders from 15 european nations including the killing of the Polish king and a Cardinal from the Vatican
in Kosovo 1448 Osmanli annilihated and killed 100,000 crusaders while losing 17,000 martyrs
in kosovo 1456 Osmanli annilihated and killed 30,000 to 50,000 Hungarian crusaders and smashed the skull of their king Hunyadi
What the heck. Ioanes de Hunyad won the Battle of Belgrade against the Ottomans in 1453 and died of typhus weeks after. You lie like a turkish gazette.
By the power of God! I will crush you!
I don't like cowards.
Don't believe these numbers. Little Moldova had 40 000? Yeah, sure. Ottomans 60 000-100 000 also too much. For comparison the famous battle of Pavia 1525 was the decisive battle of big countries and had about 25 000 from each side.
Even at the Battle of Otlukbeli in which Mehmed II faced his greatest threat, the Uzun Hasan led White Sheep Turcomans, his Ottoman army numbered less than 100k
Those numbers are surely exagarated, in battle of varna 1444 Ottomans has about 40.000 to 60000 Man and it was lead by Sultan himself with all of his household troops and armies from both anatolia and balkans, against a whole crusade but just 30 years later Ottomans assamble 100.000 just for a small balkan state...
Wallachia or Moldova cannot raised at the time more than 16 k or 18k soldiers (with 3k to 4 k mercenaries included) ,very unlikely 20 k army!
unrealistic numbers 40k !
Moldova had a 30k free peasants (razeshi) army and a permanent 7-10 k cavalry, so yes the great army as is called was more than 40k that time and they were all trained warriors.
The problem with the christian in medieval era is that they don't have unity in themselves instead of uniting and supporting each other's againts the Muslim invaders they turn themselves to one another.If only the christian united they can conquer and establish a Christian ground in anatolia and middle east.
they did what are crusades? or varna or kosovo or more. they worked together but still they couldnt conquer those lands
100.000 soldier ? thats too exagerated man
They were no more than 40.000 at most
40.000? that's too exagerated man. They were just 4 janissaries invading at most. This battle is not impressive at all. HURR DURR!
you managed to count them while you were there?

HEHehe 100K OTTOMAN army :D source british history
50 k more likely ,an acceptable number , some says 60k , it's possible, but not 100k ! very unrealistic number!
