The king decides to meet the Turkish army at Podul Inalt (meaning High Bridge in Romanian), which is exactly as the name indicates, a bridge over the river Barlad, on the main road leading to his capital.
So the sultan decides to withdraw without achieving his strategic objective of subduing the Moldavians (keep in mind this is the same sultan who took Constantinople, anihilated the Empire of Trapezunt, expelled the Venetians from their possesions on mainland Greece and defeated Uzun Hasan).
Therefore, even though the battle of Podul Inalt/Vaslui did not have as immediat result stopping the Turkish attacks, in the end proved to be a serious blow to the offensive capacity of the Ottoman empire.

The battle took place at Podul Înalt (the High Bridge), near the town of Vaslui, in Moldavia (now part of Eastern Romania).
The area was ideal for the defenders: the bridge was not too broad, and the valley was a semi-oval surrounded by hills covered by forest on all three sides.

Oare stiti ce-a declarat Inalt Prea Sfintia Sa, mitropolitul ortodox Nicolae Corneanu, despre bisericile greco-catolice?
Constat ca nu puteti discerne ce presupune limuzina de lux (vezi “mertanul” protopopului ortodox) sau simplu autoturism (masina de familie, break, monovolum), v-o spun eu care sint in cunostinta de cauza.
Va intreb cu plecaciune, nu sinteti de parere ca s-au dus cam multi bani pe apa simbetei strinsi de la enoriasi pentru procese sau constructii de biserici (biserica ortodoxa de la podul Golescu)?
