Dedicated to an important event in the European history of the first half of the 17th century, which actually decided the fate of Christian civilization, the 400th anniversary of the Khotyn epic, during which the Ottoman Empire was stopped on the Moldavian border by the joint efforts of the Zaporizhzhya-Polish-Lithuanian troops. In September 1621, the many thousand army of Sultan Osman II met on the battlefield, which was opposed by a much smaller army. The Ottomans stormed the Cossack positions seventeen times and about ten times the positions of the Polish-Lithuanian forces. The role of the Zaporizhzhya army, led by the brilliant politician and commander Pyotr Konashevich-Sagaidachny, who imposed the tactics of night warfare on the enemy, was particularly significant. Considering the huge losses (Osman II's army did not count about 40,000 soldiers), the Ottoman Empire was forced to abandon its plans to conquer Europe and sign the Khotyn Peace Treaty.
