A battle that will always be in the chest and sigh of the Serbian people.
It probably would not have happened if the Serbian noblemans had managed to preserve themselves in the Battle of Marica River in Bulgaria, but unfortunately, they suffered terrible losses.
The battle took place on June 28, 1389. The Serbian army was forced to fight an enemy three times stronger. At the head of that army was lord Lazar, and at the head of the Ottoman army was Sultan Murat, on whose right wing was his son Bajazit with a detachment of Janissaries - an army created mainly of abducted Christian children, and on his left son Jakub, who led the lightly armored infantry of Akindjia. .
The left wing of the Serbian army in the battle is a detachment of Duke Vlatko Vukovic sent by the Bosnian Emperor Tvrtko Kotromanic.
The right wing consists of the heavily armored cavalry of Vuk Brankovic, who managed to break Jakub's Akindzija with a violent attack.
On the other hand, Duke Vlatko Vukovic manages to repel Bajazit's retreating attack to save himself as a potential new sultan after his father's death.
Lazar's elite detachment, which consisted of the Knights of the Order of the Dragon and Miloš Obilić, managed to approach Murat's camp or kill him with a spike formation, but on that occasion, the Serbian Duke Miloš Obilić also lost his life.
Many still believe that he is a fictional person.
It is interesting to assume that Serbian weapons and armor at that time were of exceptional quality and gave results in the open field. It is believed that the weapon, and even the coin found from Lazar's treasuries, contained impurities of 6 metals, including silicon.
Vlatko Vukovic brings the news of the victory to the Bosnian emperor, while Lazar leaves the battlefield alive, and then the next day he is abused after an ambush in the church he visited.
He was killed by Bajazit and a detachment of ruthless Circassians.
Jedno od temeljnih verovanja kosovskog kulta glasi da je "srpsko carstvo" propalo na Kosovu polju, iako je Moravska Srbija u to vreme bila kneževina. Knez Lazar Hrebeljanović, nazvan "sveti car Lazar", navodno je svesno žrtvovao svoje "zemaljsko carstvo" da bi zadobio carstvo nebesko. Miloš Obilić je uzet kao uzor svetog ratnika koji daje život u borbi za pravoslavnu veru protiv nevernika, postajući tako stanovnik "nebeske Srbije". Nebeska Srbija je predstavljena kao nacionalno nebesko carstvo u koje nakon smrti odlaze pobožni Srbi koji daju život za veru i za Kosovo, poput Lazara i Obilića. Vuk Branković, jedini koji je nakon kosovske bitke nastavio da se bori, proglašen je izdajnikom.
