This song is about the battle of Breitenfeld, the biggest battle of the 3rd period of the Thirty Years war, ended as decisive Swedish victory. The Swedish and Saxon army faced the army of the Habsburg Catholic League led by Tilly, the saxons retreated from the battle as soon as it began, but better equipment, leadership and morality of the swedes led to their victory. Historically, it was an absolutely insignificant battle, but a glorious one for Sweden.

Song Meaning

@totenkopf it's about the battle of fraustadt in 1709

@totenkopf No, the song mentions the battle of Fraustadt, not Breitenfeld. It's about the mass murder of over 500 russians after the battle.
