Battle of Mokra ( July 1462 ) The Second Battle of Mokra occurred on July 7 , 1462 , right before Skanderbeg ' s Macedonian campaign . Sultan Mehmed II had come out of his recent campaigns victorious , adding large swaths of lands to his domains . He was confident enough to send a new force into Albania to weaken the Albanian forces . He thus sent 23 , 000 men under Sinan bey to complete the job . Skanderbeg had been prepared and moved towards the Albanian frontier . The armies came near Mokra where Skanderbeg had positioned his forces on a mountain dominating the landscape . When the Turkish force got near enough , the Albanians ambushed and the Turks routed . Skanderbeg then raided Macedonia and split up the loot with his men . Background . From 1460 – 1462 , Skanderbeg had been in Italy campaigning for Ferrante I of Naples who had been suffering a dynastic dispute . He had been able to restore much of the kingdom back to his ally ' s control from the Angevin Dynasty . In the meantime , Mehmed had finally conquered the Peloponnese and Trebizond . Upon learning of Skanderbeg ' s presence in Italy , he sent an invasion force into Albania . Skanderbeg ' s wife , Donika , however , sent an urgent letter to Skanderbeg requesting for his return to Albania . Skanderbeg realized that he was needed at home so he left Ferrante to deal with the greatly weakened Angevin forces and boarded himself and his men for Albania . Battle . The sultan sent 23 , 000 cavalry under Sinan bey to combat Albanian forces . Skanderbeg quickly gathered 5 , 000 men from the country to fight along with 3 , 000 men that he used in Italy . With much caution , he went through the same road the Turks would use and positioned his men in a mountain in the Mokra valley where the Turks were expected to pass by . When the Turkish forces arrived , Skanderbeg ordered his men forward , beating drums and their swords together to create as much as possible to give an impression of a very large Albanian force . The Ottomans withdrew in disarray and the Albanian continued to pursue them , inflicting many casualties and capturing a multitude of prisoners . Aftermath . Skanderbeg pursued the Ottoman forces into Macedonia . Since the main Turkish force in the region had already been defeated , Skanderbeg continued to raid Macedonia and upon his return to Albania , he split up the loot with his men . Mehmed became angered at the defeat and the next month , he sent three separate Turkish armies into Macedonia in order to prepare for an invasion in force of Albania . Skanderbeg , instead , launched his own invasion , defeating each of the three armies before they set foot in Albania .
