The first year of the Bohdan Khmelnytsky Uprising was marked by the great success of the Cossack and Tatar forces near Zhovti Vody, Korsun and Pyliavtsi. The Cossack and Tatar alliance influenced the further progress of the war. Bohdan Khmelnytsky was the first leader in Ukraine who not only understood but also applied the battlefield effectiveness of the combination of good Cossack infantry and light Tatar cavalry. Therefore, 1648 was the beginning of the great depression of old Polish military art. This article analyzes the operational-strategic idea of the Cossack leader during the Zhovti Vody campaign. Also the military planning on the Polish side is discussed, as all these factors were the reason for the first Cossack and Tatar victory. They predestined the fate of the 1648 campaign.
