Talk:Siege of Nagykanizsa

mysterious statement
after saying that there were 7000 men at the fort, the article says the Ottoman army, "which placed 9 000 soldiers and some extra arms and food supplies"... removing because I am not sure what this means, ie is this total strength of the army, number of *additional* men at the fort, or what exactly. May discover the meaning of this number and put it back in as I get further into the article. Elinruby (talk) 08:29, 10 December 2011 (UTC)

what a guy
Not sure what this quote tells us besides modesty, moving here in case I am missing something:

After being humbled by the laudatory letter from the sultan, Hasan Pasha was literally crying, he said:

''All I did was a small contribution to the Empire. I didn't deserve such praises from the Sultan. Suleyman the Magnificent didn't use such words even when he appointed Ibrahim Pasha as his vicegerent. Piyale Pasha, as the son-in-law of Selim the Grim, won bigger victories in the Mediterranean but he was not promoted to vizierdom. The Caliphate of the Islamic World starts to send official letters to praise the commanders of insignificant fortresses like Naģykanizsa, awarding such humble services. And vizierdom is given to old people like me now. What can be more tragic for the Empire? Why shouldn't I cry?''

It presumably came from somewhere, need to know where if there is a reason to use it. Elinruby (talk) 13:19, 10 December 2011 (UTC)

I think there is a troubling lack of sources here. Anyone might help to add? 138.38.152.167 (talk) 23:33, 18 March 2022 (UTC)
