"The Turks aren't expecting us!" *Top 10 famous last words*

Osman Pasha says hello!

Don't forget... the Turks weren't expecting them.

Those shrapnel artillery were very effective so General Osman used them a lot, in the end of the day we surrendered but we took too many enemy troops down.

When you use shrapnell shot in Empire total war!

And they're still casually marching through out all of that. What a slaughter.

1:22 Brutal.

The Turks won this battle, but they have lost the war. However, without this delay, the Russian would march on the capital of Constantinople within mere days and probably end the Ottoman Empire. Although the declining Ottoman Empire was by this time often regarded as "the sick man of Europe", the Ottoman Army's five-month-long resistance against a much larger army earned a degree of admiration, which may have contributed to the unsympathetic treatment of the Russian Empire at the Congress of Berlin. Most battles confirm the way that things are going already; Plevna is one of the few engagements which changed the course of history. It is difficult to see how the Ottoman Empire could have survived in Europe...if the Russians had reached Constantinople in July; probably it would have collapsed in Asia as well. Plevna...gave the Ottoman Empire another forty years of life. The siege of Plevna also signalled the introduction of the repeating rifle into European warfare. The Russian and Turkish armies were each using two types of infantry rifle at Plevna. Russian troops were largely armed with the old M1869 Krnka, a single shot lifting breech block conversion of the muzzle loading M1857 rifled musket. It was soundly outperformed by the more modern single shot Turkish Peabody-Martini rifles. At the time, the Russian army was in process of reequipping with the more modern, but still single shot, Berdan rifle. It became clear at Plevna that this was already obsolete while being introduced, outclassed by the Turkish Winchester repeaters. Reports of the heavy losses suffered by the Russian army at the hands of the Turks at Plevna forced armies across Europe to begin the process of either reequipping with repeating rifles or finding a way to convert their existing single-shot rifles into magazine-fed weapons. And it was this battle that set the style of next wars, which is frontline warfare, especially in WW1.

R.I.P.

150.000 russians romanians and bulgars..vs 40.000 turks

Aglasammi gülsemmi bilemedim. Ruslar bile bunun hakkında bir film çekmişler. Türk film sektörüne, Plevne hakkında bur film çekmediği sürece saygım olmayacak.

now imagine if the turks expected them!

Wow

Based on this you'd think the Coalition lost this battle lol

150.000 russia bulgaria poland vs 40k turk retreat

That was pretty quick

All Wars are Banker's Wars...

Amerikadan alınan Martini Henry ve seri atışlı Winchester tüfekleri Ruslara üstünlük sağladı. Yaşadığım sokağın adı Gazi Osman Paşa. Büyük komutan büyük ordu.

Ruslar yalnız değil. Romenler ve Bulgarlar hatta Yunanlar onların yanında. Türkler yalnız...

Türkiyə ❤️💪

Turkish Artillery

Gücümüzü tekrar kazaniryoruz hasta adam iyileşti

1:41 Nice CGI right there.

Epic scene

30.000 Türk vs 300.000 russian

ASKERİNLE BİN YAŞA ŞANI BÜYÜK OSMAN PAŞA

This is nothing compared to avarage artillery barrage in WW1 whenever a column of reinforcements was arriving on either side.

At least Turks were not expecting them...

they remind me battle droids from star wars

Osman Pasha did well considering the situation. Suleyman Pasha fucked up by not coming to aid when he could have.

We will be back 🇹🇷

Война без прикрас...

thats what you get if you use tactics from napoleonic wars in XX century

Oh those Russians. The massacre you did in Plevne and Edirne (Adrianopolis) will never be forgotten. Russo-Turkish War was horrible to us.

Coments here be like: When unstopable force meet umovable object But for real seeing dumb people arguing over something that happened decades ago is shit stright up from anime attack on titan

It doesn't matter. Russian or Turkish victory, Pleven is a Bulgarian city.

I ve never seen in my whole life better conversation in russian with russians.

Great Glory Osman Pasha is coming

What is the name ıf this movie?

ylea mash ra chemi ylea

Dat CGI tho...

Wouldn’t it have been better if the Russians had stopped marching and launch a counterattack, like aim their cannons to where they were being shot from?

I am from Bulgaria and a historian and I will tell you that if the Turkish High Command had little sense to order the abandonment of the city, Turkey would not have lost the war so shamefully, but in general the Russian command makes the same mistakes, the war was won mainly because of Russian heroism. the Bulgarian soldier

jeez...lol

Why was keep telling them not to shoot?

for those who are not aware, but judging by the comments, more than half. This is an excerpt from a Russian film.))

Long live GAZI OSMAN PASHA!

longue vie TURQUIE

The garbage quality really adds to the charm

Siege of Pleven...More like Massacre of Pleven

and when i see some people claim that officers ware just fat people not brave, i cringe because you see battlefield had to be lead by someone and if officer ware leaders doest that mean they dont respect for being heroes of war ? both died solliders and officers even generals in those times

More than 200000 russian soldier and 35000 turkish soldier ...

Turkey mistake was to be in defence not on attack
