I'm a scholar Taik, and I'm telling you the story of the Battle of Ginegat, the name of which may be unfamiliar to some people, but in fact, in that distant year of 1479, it was a big deal in Spain! The battle was unprecedented, marking a contest between the two great powers on the peninsula, and it was exciting to watch. After many gunsmoke and blood, the Battle of Ginegart has become an unfading picture in Spanish history.
The story has to start from the years near the end of the 15th century, when there were two powerful forces in the Iberian Peninsula of Spain: on the one hand, the Kingdom of Castile, which sat in the north of the peninsula and controlled a large part of the country; On the other side was the Kingdom of Granada, located in the southern part of the island, and was the only place where the Islamic faith was adhered to at the time.
King Ferdinand II of the Kingdom of Castile was very ambitious, and he was optimistic about the rich and beautiful land and strategic position of the Granada Dynasty. He had the ambition and desire to unify all of Spain, and he wanted to bring the Spanish land into his own hands, which led to increased tensions. Of course, the rulers of the Kingdom of Granada also sensed the imminent threat, especially when they saw that the Castilian dynasty was growing stronger and seemed to be ready to pounce on them at any moment, so they began to prepare for it, fortifying the walls and strengthening the defenses.
The battle finally broke out at Gineta in 1479, and the battle was like a key that opened the door to a long period of strife. Armed to the teeth on both sides for the coming great war, the soldiers of the Kingdom of Castile were highly qualified, highly trained and skilled in the use of both cold and hot weapons. Most of them are battle-hardened warriors who have accumulated rich and valuable experience in countless battles.
The Kingdom of Castile also invested a lot of resources in designing and purchasing a series of new long-range attack equipment, such as bows and arrows, artillery, etc. With these, they can seem to control enemies thousands of miles away and deal them a great blow. They also paid great attention to the training and use of tactics, and did their homework for the attack on the Kingdom of Granada.
The Kingdom of Granada is emboldened by its unique cavalry units and impregnable cities, both of which they attempt to weaken the enemy's offensive. The Kingdom of Granada used its sophisticated cavalry and strong castles to resist enemy attacks.
This was the Battle of Ginegart in 1479, in which the Kingdom of Granada resisted, but in the end it was unable to withstand the onslaught of the Kingdom of Castile and surrendered. At this point, the Kingdom of Castile not only demonstrated great force and determination to unify, but also announced a major transformation in the history of Spain.
