Battle of Klushino
The Battle of Klushino (Kłuszyn) was fought on July 4, 1610, between forces of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and Russia during Russia's Time of Troubles. In the battle the outnumbered Polish force secured a decisive victory over the Muscovites, due to the tactical competence of hetman Stanisław Żółkiewski and the military prowess of the elite Polish 'winged' hussars.
