They were pretty sucessful inside Europe. In the balkans and greece and in iberian peninsula they were massive victorious.

Your logic is false! You cherry picked the battle where peasants went ahead of the actual army and got lost. Why don't you show the battles and sieges that happened after this battle?

Turks are not good soldiers. Mongols are good soldiers. Turks do nothing in life other than get assimilated by cultures around them and lie to themselves about them being the best. And they keep getting raped by mongols. (Both seljuk and ottoman empires were destroyed by mongols in two different wars)

Because the Turk is a superior soldier to wh*tes

http://desuarchive.org/his/thread/2689765/

>From this you will see that it is the patience, self-denial and thrift of the Turkish soldier that enable him to face the most trying circumstances and come safely out of' the dangers that surround him. What a contrast to our men! Christian soldiers on a campaign refuse to put up with their ordinary food, and call for thrushes, becaficos [a small bird esteemed a dainty, as it feeds on figs and grapes], and suchlike dainty dishes! ... It makes me shudder to think of what the result of a struggle between such different systems must be; one of us must prevail and the other be destroyed, at any rate we cannot both exist ]in safety. On their side is the vast wealth of their empire, unimpaired resources, experience and practice in arms, a veteran soldiery, an uninterrupted series of victories, readiness to endure hardships, union, order, discipline, thrift and watchfulness. On ours are found an empty exchequer, luxurious habits, exhausted resources, broken spirits, a raw and insubordinate soldiery, and greedy quarrels; there is no regard for discipline, license runs riot, the men indulge in drunkenness and debauchery, and worst of all, the enemy are accustomed to victory, we to defeat. Can we doubt what the result must be?

Lets get one thing straight, there were next to no Turks in this battle nor all of Egypt.
Now we got that cleared out of the way, no. Firearms were scarce among the Egyptians, the few were antiquated Jezzails or pistols carried by small scattered contingents of Mamelukes. The majority of the army was bubonic plague-ridden peasants rooted out of their mudhuts along the nile and have whatever that is in their possession that can be called a weapon

Guess what, the french are retarded too and charged squares many times.

But anon, the Turks lost against the Austrians half the time during the Ottoman-Hapsburg wars, and proceeded to lose against the Russians, who were even heavier drinkers, if anything. Even at the height of their power, the Ottomans were viciously harassed by the alcoholics of the Cossack Hetmanate, whose forces even sailed to Constantinople and defeated the Ottoman navy on their way out after sacking several Ports on the Bosporus

Reading through the Venetian and Portugese conflicts against the Ottomans is really depressing, and even more so the crusader battles against them during the 15th century, notably the Ottoman and Hungarian war where crusader knights were just fucking smashed to pieces by jannisaries and sipahis.

Seriously, after reading this, I fail to see crusaders as anything but wimps now. Their crowning achievement, the siege of Malta, is just but one speck on a mountain of defeats against their arab enemies.
>>
>>3251142

>lepanto

What's hilarious is that the Holy league still lost that war despite that naval victory because their leaders couldnt agree with anything.

I think a major reason why crusader coalitions always get beaten by the turks is because of that very reason. Fuckers always fight amongst themselves

Doesn't change that Europeans lost almost every battle they had against the Ottomans. They couldnt even successfully invade them in WW1 when the Ottoman Empire was at its weakest.

People remember Malta and Vienna because they were rare victories against the Ottomans, not because how strong Europe is.

In hindight though, they were a ragtag bunch of small countries fighting an entire empire with a lot of guns and cannons, I guess I could give them some slack.
>>
>>3252812

And yet no one had successfully destroyed the Ottoman Empire for a whole 600 years of its existence, even despite numerous crusades by the Popes to Deus Vult against them.

>>3252870

Yes, he did. But after he fucked off, every consequent crusade after that was a failure. Richard couldnt event reclaim Jerusalem. The only crusade that actually met its goal was the first one.

Think about it. Every crusade was an alliance of European nations banding to fight one fucking country and they cant even conquer it properly.

I mean look at every damn battle against the Ottomans. It's a bunch of countries ganging up on some mudslimes with guns, and they still fucking lose most of the time. Look up the crusade of Varna. It was supposed to be a revenge crusade from previous defeats but the crusader fuckers still got their ass kicked like punks. Made even more pathetic when the Sultan himself wanted to make peace already but the crusaders wouldnt have it.
>>
>>3252902

The 9th crusade could be called a success in a way that the Vietnam war was tactical victory for the US due to higher kill counts but like that war, the crusaders had to withdraw anyway since the people back home were sick of sending their loved ones to fight sand niggers.

Why is everyone hyping up russia again? Russians historically were SHIT soldiers. The only way they could win battles is if by either throwing more bodies at the enemy then they have bullets or if the enemy itself fucks up by attacking in the winter or something.

During the Ottoman empires weakest moment the Russians tried to invade the Balkans and they literally didn't win a single battle. They got humiliated so much that even western europe was mocking them.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Olteni%C8%9Ba
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Calafat
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Silistra
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bergmann_Offensive
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Plevna

The only thing Russians had going for them was having a stronger navy then the Ottomans and having an army that was 5 times larger. And even then they only won thanks to the balkan countries rebelling and helping the Russians.

Russian land forces were always absolute shit.

The crusaders were always somewhat successful but the ultimate downfall was petty squabbles between kings and princes. Also politics at home. Meaning some kings were afraid to lead armies to the Holy Lands out of fear of people rebelling or grabbing land.
