Infantry Units

Serdiuks (Ukraine)

A hetman's mercenaries were divided into cavalry and infantry regiments. Foot Cossacks were called serdiuks or ohochepehotnys (volunteer infantrymen). Their tactics and skills were certainly no match for those of regular European musketeers. However, they were able to efficiently fight back Tatars and combat in the country. Serdiuks were usually dressed in their traditional valueumes.
