(詳細はAustria and the Ottoman Empire on July 21–22, 1739, in Grocka, Belgrade. The Turks were victorious and took the city of Belgrade. The battle was part of the Ottoman-Habsburg wars. ==Battle== The Austrians had direct orders from Emperor Charles VI to engage the enemy at the first possible opportunity. The Austrian army broke up camp at Vinča (''Zweibrücken'') on July 20 between 22:00 and 23:00h and moved south through difficult terrain. On the morning of July 21, the Imperial cavalry consisting of the Pállfy and Savoy regiments encountered the Turkish army and attacked without waiting for the infantry. The Ottoman forces were better prepared and outnumbering their opponent, could fire on the Austrians from higher hidden positions. The Austrian cavalry was then cut off and only the Savoy Regiment was able to break out. When the Austrian infantry arrived, the battle raged on until nightfall, when the Austrians decided to retreat to Vinča. The Ottomans didn't pursue. On July 23, the Austrians withdrew further to Belgrade. The Ottoman Army followed and laid siege to Belgrade, until the Austrians signed the Treaty of Belgrade on September 18 and left the city. In this battle, the Austrian cavalry alone had suffered 2,142 killed and wounded, between 25 and 50% of their total effectives. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Battle of Grocka」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
