army of the Emperor Maurice, under Narses. The usurper’s forces were
totally routed, and Chosroes II restored to the throne of Persia.
Zalaka (Moorish Empire in Spain).
Fought October 26, 1086, between 40,000 Moors, under Almoravid, and
300,000 Christians, under Alfonso VI of Castile. The Spaniards were
utterly routed, with enormous loss. Alfonso, at the head of 500 horse,
cut his way out, and with difficulty escaped.
Zama (Second Punic War).
Fought B.C. 202, between the Carthaginians, under Hannibal, and the
Romans, under Scipio Africanus. The Carthaginians began to attack with
their elephants, 80 in number, but some of these became unmanageable,
and fell back upon the cavalry, throwing them into disorder, while the
legionaries opened out and allowed the others to pass down the lanes
between their ranks. The infantry then closed, and after severe
fighting, the Romans gained a complete victory, 20,000 Carthaginians
falling, while as many more were made prisoners. Hannibal escaped from
the field at the end of the day.
Zamora (Moorish Empire in Spain).
Fought 901, between the Spaniards, under Alfonso the Great, King of the
Asturias, and the Moors, under Abdallah, King of Cordova. The Moors were
utterly routed, with heavy loss, Alfonso thereby extending his dominions
as far as the Guadiana.
Zeim (Russo-Turkish War).
Fought April 20, 1877, between the Russians, under Loris Melikoff, and
the Turks, under Mukhtar Pasha. Melikoff attacked the Turks in a
strongly entrenched position, but was repulsed with considerable loss.
Zendecan (Turkish Invasion of Afghanistan).
Fought 1039, between the Seljuks, under Moghrul Beg, and the Afghans,
under Musrud, Sultan of Ghuzni. The Afghans were defeated, and Musrud
compelled to retire on his capital.
Zeugminum (Hungarian War).
Fought 1168, between the Greeks, under Manuel I, Emperor of
Constantinople, and the Hungarian invaders. The Hungarians were signally
defeated, and the war, which had lasted for five years, came to an end.
Zeuta (Ottoman Wars).
Fought September 11, 1679, between the Austrians, under Prince Eugene,
and the Turks, under Elwas Mohammed, the Grand Vizier. Eugene attacked
the Turkish army as it was crossing a temporary bridge over the Theiss,
and the cavalry being already across, cut it in two, and completely
routed the infantry, driving them into the river. The Turks lost 29,000
men. The Austrians 500 only.
Ziela (Third Mithridatic War).
Fought B.C. 67, between the Romans, under Triarius, and the Pontic army,
under Mithridates. The King attacked the Roman camp, and practically
annihilated them, though himself dangerously wounded in the assault.
Ziela.
Fought August 2, B.C. 47, between 7 Roman legions, with some Asiatic
auxiliaries, under Julius Cæsar, and the Bosporans, under Pharnaces.
Pharnaces attacked the Romans while they were pitching camp, but the
legionaries quickly formed up, and utterly routed their assailants. This
is the occasion of Cæsar’s famous despatch, “Veni, vidi, vici.”
Ziezicksee (Flemish War).
Fought 1302, when the Genoese galleys, in the service of Philip IV of
France, under Grimaldi and Filipo di Rieti, utterly destroyed the
Flemish fleet.
Zlotsow (Ottoman Wars).
Fought 1676, between the Poles, under John Sobieski, and 20,000 Turks
and Tartars, under Mohammed IV. The Turks were signally defeated.
Znaim (Campaign of Wagram).
Fought July 14, 1809, when Masséna, with 8,000 French, attacked 30,000
Austrians, under the Prince of Reuss, and drove them into Znaim with
considerable loss, including 800 prisoners.
Zorndorf (Seven Years’ War).
Fought August 25, 1758, between the Prussians, 25,000 strong, under
Frederick the Great, and a Russian army, under Fermor, which was
besieging Custria. Frederick attacked the Russian entrenchments, and
drove them out, with a loss of 19,000 forcing them to relinquish the
siege. The Prussians lost about 11,000.
Zummerhausen (Thirty Years’ War).
Fought 1647, when the French and Swedes, under Turenne and Wrangel,
inflicted a decisive defeat upon the Imperialists.
Zurakow (Ottoman War).
In 1676, John Sobieski, with 10,000 Poles, was besieged by 200,000 Turks
and Tartars, under Ibrahim Pasha (Shaitan). Having 63 guns, Sobieski
made a sturdy defence, and by constant sorties inflicted enormous loss
on the besiegers. At last, being unable to make any impression on the
defence, and finding his army wasting away, Ibrahim consented to treat,
and withdrew his forces from Polish territory. The Turks lost enormous
numbers during the siege; the Poles lost 3,000.
Zutphen (Netherlands War of Independence).
Fought September 22, 1586, between the Spaniards, under Prince Alexander
of Parma, and the English, under the Earl of Leicester. The Spaniards
endeavoured to throw a convoy of provisions into Zutphen, which
Leicester was besieging. He attempted to intercept it, but without
success, and was forced to retire after suffering considerable loss.
Among those who fell on the English side was Sir Philip Sydney.
Zuyder Zee (Netherlands War of Independence).
Fought October 11, 1573, between 30 Spanish ships, under Bossu, and 25
Dutch ships, under Admiral Dirkzoon. The Spanish fleet fled, after
losing 5 ships, only Bossu standing his ground. His ship, however, was
eventually captured, after losing three-fourths of her crew.
