CMV - Winged Hussars - Sabaton - Poland - Twierdza. Tarczą i mieczem - Крепость

Sorry my dear anime fans. Yes its not a topic of my channel. Yes I hate this russian propaganda cartoon, but its only source where I found good animation about glorious polish army and winged hussars. My country was many years also a part of Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, so it was a duty to make a video in honour of our Rzeczpospolita.

Maybe because there were a lot of attempts to storm the Smolensk fortress in real history of 1609-1611 siege? Learn history, please.

[@keladwynsolkas]

Максим Решитько Mate. Seems you missed the point of what he’s saying. Looking at history, most armies settle down for a siege when dealing with such fortifications. And, since the content here is a cartoon, showcasing Poland simply assaulting, and not every single storming of Smolensk Fortress, yes, it makes perfect sense for him to say Poland in the cartoon. Not to mention, it doesn’t matter if Smolensk Fortress was ever actually stormed, since, as previously stated, the content is a cartoon in which the Polish Winged Hussars are charging in, meaning there is no real point in you approaching in such a manner. Don’t be a cunt, please

[@bolesawchrobry8953]

there is no time, russian winter is coming

[@rus_iwh]

@@keladwynsolkas Just for information: The Poles at the beginning of the siege tried to storm Smolensk, a constant battle lasted three days. The Poles managed to blow up one of the gates, and they launched a tight formation of their soldiers to storm this gate. These soldiers were shot from the city walls by artillery. It is this event that was showed in the cartoon, which does not have to be completely historically reliable. Then there was a long war of undermining, which the Poles also lost. Then the Poles dragged artillery and bombarded the city for a long time, but lost the artillery duel, since the city’s towers had an advantage. Then there was a year of blockade, when Russian sorties constantly weakened Polish troops. Then new assaults, in which the Poles were more successful, but still lost. As a result, over two years of fighting, the Poles lost 30 thousand people, despite the fact that the garrison was less than 6 thousand. Smolensk eventually fell. But the Poles lost the war and lost Smolensk too. And if you do not believe it, look at the map, where is this Poland, which then was the largest state in Europe. Two years of siege, and victory in the war. Does your country can boast something similar?

i wonder why everyone forgets about main hussar attribiute that made them so powerful over 6 meter lances pretty every movie gives the hussars like normal lance with 3 meter length but the main thing that made hussars that powerful was very long lances made of special light wood that were longer than enemy pikes

Special light wood? What wood is that? Hussars didn't use any special or magical wood. Their lances where just hollow inside and attached to their seats on a strap in order to take away the weight.

[@Gienkuu]

@@markodomazet5178 it was mainly empty inside made out of strong oak wood i believe and it was mainly that because if it was any other wood it would break and the lance would be dismissed and also the fact that it was like 6 meters in length got them a giant advantage on the battlefield

[@Nsinger998]

The movie is called 'Fortress' and takes place after the last of the Rurikovich(Rurikid) had died. Rumors began to circulate of an heir to the Russian throne name Dmitri and 3 men would claim to be him before the Romanov line was established. This Dimitri was supported by Poland who wanted to place a catholic on the Russian throne.

just for your information: you say that this is a propaganda cartoon. I don't know if you actually watched it but if watch the ending it does say that the Smolensk fortress fell to the polish army in 2 years. If the year depicted here is 1609 then I don't see what you are complaining about. The cartoon is based on the historical events but has much fiction in it which should be understood since the cartoon is made for kids. Sure it is a Russian cartoon and does depict the polish as the antagonists (I have nothing against the polish, they are Slavs therefore I treat them as all other Slavs: with love and respect) but this is done for the ease of understanding the idea and not bogging this terrible siege with too much of the death and diluting it with some comedy.

Okay I feel like clearing up something about this movie. I'm not trying to defend any country out there, just merely clarify some misconceptions. *The movie is not set in 1683 during the siege of Vienna* . It is a movie about 1609 Siege of *Smolensk* , which actually happened in history. Yes, the Polish Hussars actually fought on the offensive side and it is a recorded historical fact, so I'm not sure why everybody is saying that this is propaganda. In the full movie the Russians win the battle though it is stated in the epilogue that Smolensk did fall. I agree that this is kind of a cheat-out to show an ultimative victory of the Russian defenders and just merely mention the historical fact once the movie has ended, however it is hardly worse than the real war crimes of other countries being signed up to Russia in the newest COD game. In the end I think they need to create another cartoon like this but this time make it about the Osowiec fortress. There's plenty of room there for some "Russia stronk" flex with vodka and hardbass, plus no one is going to accuse them of painting the Germans as the bad guys since it's a widely known fact that they were, during both world wars.

[@Siathuan]

Well, not during WWI - not really. It was just one great, big, glorious clusterfuck of jingoism and ancient grudges culminating in a War to End All Wars. Which is not to say that Imperial Germany _didn't_ do terrible things in WWI, but compared to their contemporaries they were hardly the irredeemable _Evil_ that the Nazis would be revealed as 25 years later. And, even then, the Soviets under Stalin weren't much better.

No, it tells how the Russians defended the city. The Defense of Smolensk (Smolenskaya Defense) is one of the key episodes of the Russian-Polish War of 1609-1618. Polish-Lithuanian troops of King Sigismund III under the command of Polish Hetman Crown Stanislav Zholkevsky from September 16 (26), 1609 to June 3 (13), 1611 besieged strategically important Smolensk, defended by a Russian garrison under the command of voivode Mikhail Shein. The siege ended with the capture of the city after the complete exhaustion of the garrison of the fortress, however, due to the heavy losses suffered near Smolensk, the army of King Sigismund III subsequently could not go to Moscow to help the Polish garrison, and retreated to the borders of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.

[@thewingedhussar4188]

I totally agree. What gets me though is how Different the forests of Russia is different from those of the US. From what I have read, the forests have the trees more spread out and more open to the air. Where the US forests tend to be more like a solid ceiling like. You can walk into the forest and see much more vegetation closer together and could hide wild animals. An this is AFTER 300+ years of colonization. An yet it still has a very wild and creepy look. Where Russian woods are again more spread out. If the hussars were charging at that fort in North America and the fort didn't cut down the woods around them. The Hussars Seriously could ride up to the gates and no one would have known until the hussars were right on top of them.

Yeah it is Russian propaganda movie. It makes little sense in terms of characters' motivations.

Lots of history with the Hussars. Their primary advantage was flexibility -they were fast and heavily armed, capable of outmaneuvering heavier forces and catching lighter forces. In fact, that was what what made them so effective at the Battle of Vienna -maneuver.

У поляков, к слову, есть мульты гораздо хуже, та же 3-дешная история Польши(можно найти на ютубе) это пиздец. Ни слова о отжатии поляками земель Украины и Белоруси, зато злые жирные Иваны коммунисты тут как тут, и конечно ни слова о польских формированиях ркка, воевавших против фашиков и дошедших аж до Берлина. Конечно, российских мульт о осаде поляками крепости гораздо хуже, наверно потому что он российский и поляки в нём не борцы за свободу и демократию.
