The Siege of Güns or Siege of Kőszeg ((トルコ語:Güns Kuşatması)) was a siege of Kőszeg ((ドイツ語:Güns))〔During Ottoman–Habsburg wars, the small border fort was called Güns since it was under Habsburg jurisdiction, today as a part of Hungary it is known as Kőszeg.〕 in the Kingdom of Hungary within Habsburg Monarchy, that took place in 1532. In the siege, the defending forces of the Austrian Habsburg Monarchy under the leadership of Croatian Captain Nikola Jurišić ((ハンガリー語:Miklós Jurisics)), defended the small border fort of Kőszeg with only 700–800 Croatian soldiers, with no cannons and few guns.〔 The defenders prevented the advance of the Ottoman army of 120,000–200,000 toward Vienna, under the leadership of Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent ( ''Süleymān'') and Pargalı Ibrahim Pasha.〔〔Turnbull (2003), p. 51.〕 The exact outcome is unknown, since it has two versions which differ depending on the source. In the first version Nikola Jurišić rejected the offer to surrender on favourable terms, and in the second version, the city was offered terms for a nominal surrender. Suleiman, having been delayed nearly four weeks, withdrew at the arrival of the August rains,〔 and did not continue towards Vienna as he had intended, but turned homeward.〔 Suleiman secured his possession in Hungary by conquering several other forts,〔Akgunduz and Ozturk (2011), p. 184.〕 but after the Ottoman withdrawal, Habsburg Emperor Ferdinand I reoccupied some of the devastated territory. Following this, Suleiman and Ferdinand concluded a 1533 treaty in Constantinople that confirmed the right of John Zápolya as a king of all Hungary, but recognised Ferdinand's possession of some of the reoccupied territory.〔Turnbull (2003), pp. 51–52.〕 ==Background== On 29 August 1526, at the Battle of Mohács, the Christian forces led by King Louis II were defeated by Ottoman forces led by Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent.〔Turnbull (2003), p. 49〕 Louis was killed in the battle, which resulted in the end of the independent Kingdom of Hungary as he died without an heir. Both the Kingdoms of Hungary and Croatia became disputed territories with claims from both the Habsburg and Ottoman empires. Habsburg Emperor Ferdinand I, who was a brother of Holy Roman Emperor Charles V, married the sister of Louis II〔Turnbull (2003), pp. 49–51.〕 and was elected King by the nobles of both Hungary and Croatia.〔Corvisier and Childs (1994), p. 289〕 The throne of Hungary became the subject of a dynastic dispute between Ferdinand and John Zápolya from Transylvania, since Suleiman had promised to make Zápolya the ruler of all Hungary.〔Turnbull (2003), pp. 55–56.〕 During Hungarian campaign of 1527–1528, Ferdinand captured Buda from John Zápolya in 1527, only to relinquish his hold on it in 1529 when an Ottoman counter-attack stripped Ferdinand of all his territorial gains during 1527 and 1528.〔 The siege of Vienna in 1529 was the first attempt by Suleiman the Magnificent to capture the Austrian capital. This siege signalled the pinnacle of Ottoman power and the maximum extent of Ottoman expansion in central Europe.〔 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「Siege of Güns」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
