Only after the fall of the USSR and the new accessibility of Mitteleuropa did our two authors investigate their respective family histories, each visiting not only a variety of archive collections but also many of the dots on the map from which so much had emanated. On the third day, Emperor Leopold I was awaited, who wanted to find out what the Christian troops would do after the Lithuanian army had joined them. The entire army now numbered hundreds of thousands of soldiers. It was decided to continue fighting, not satisfied with the victory already won. The troops under the command of Jan III Sobieski headed towards Hungary, where the fight against the Turks continued. In this table, only household and retinue troops’ numbers are certain, 78,500 and 44,200 while other troops’ numbers are rounded, 50,000 Tatars, 10,000 Wallachian, 170,000 rear service etc. Based on this, Kahraman Şakul claim that this anonymous table show counted numbers of household and retinue troops while number of provincial troops (Tımarlı Sipahi: 40,000) and vassal states’ troops (100,000) is expected numbers. For instance, Tatars, Nogais and Circassians number was more than 100,000 while this table shows that Tatars (general term for Crimean Khanate and its vassals) brought 50,000 warriors. [37] Ottoman accounts state the size of the household army as 25,529 Janissaries, 3045 weaponeers (in Ottoman Turkish: cebeci) and 4000 gunners, totaling 32,574 as opposed to 60,000 estimation in this table. Therefore, according to K. Şakul's assessment, the Ottoman army consisted of approximately 120,000 soldiers and 156 guns. Within their ranks, 30,000 troops were strategically stationed in captured castles and deployed to disrupt the approaching relief army's movements. [38]

Sobieski took about 27,000 soldiers of the Crown from Kraków, including 24 hussar banners, not waiting for the Lithuanian troops who were running late. The king’s eldest son, Jakub, accompanied him. The Turks, however, failed to defeat the Habsburgs and conquer the rest of Hungary. In 1682, an anti-Habsburg uprising broke out in the Austrian part of Hungary (Upper Hungary – today’s Slovakia). It was led by Emeric Thököly. The Turks, occupying the rest of Hungary, tried to take advantage of them, and after Thököly had committed himself to a fiefdom, the Ottomans prepared for a new excellent war expedition. Threatened by the invasion, Emperor Leopold I turned to Poland with a proposal to conclude a strategic alliance against Turkey. a b c Kenneth Meyer Setton (1991).
