Undertaking a military intervention to fight for the Polish crown, the Russian Empire actively used the armed resources of its satellite state – the Left-Bank Hetmanate. Ukrainian Cossack regiments, comprising mostly light cavalry, were used by the Russian command to fight the army of Polish confederates – supporters of Stanisław Leszczyński, to organize reconnaissance, for defence, for patrolling and for convoy and courier services. During these two years, 16,000 Cossacks were mobilized to meet the Russian demand. Their participation in combat revealed the weak points of the Cossack army and contributed to its reform in 1735.}, doi = {10.4467/20844069PH.14.030.2758}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/prace-historyczne/article/udzial-wojska-hetmanatu-lewobrzeznego-w-polskiej-wojnie-sukcesyjnej-w-latach-1733-1735} }
