Thank you for any help you can give me. I desperately need this for a history paper I am doing.

Osmanlý padiþahý, baþkumandan idi. Çoðu zaman bizzat ordunun baþýnda sefere giderdi. Ancak gitmeyip, serdar-ý ekrem adýyla bir veziri tayin ettiði de olurdu. Padiþahýn bizzat katýldýðý sefere sefer-i hümâyun denirdi. Nitekim Hazret-i Peygamber de bazý seferlerde bizzat ordunun baþýnda bulunmuþ; bazýlarýnda kendisi gitmeyip bir baþkasýný kumandan tayin etmiþtir. Birincisine gazve (gazâ )   ikincisine seriyye adý verilir.

Alman Seferi
Ferdinad bir süre sonra Budin´i yeniden kuþatýnca, Kanuni Sultan Süleyman bu defa doðrudan doðruya Þarlken ile savaþa karar verdi Alman seferi. Ancak, Þarlken, ortalarda görünmedi. Bu sefer Ferdinand barýþ istemek zorunda kaldý. Ýstanbul Antlaþmasý (1533) ile Macar krallýðýndan tamamen vazgeçti. Osmanlý sadrazamý ile ayný seviyede tutulmayý kabul etti. Þarlken de böylece Macaristan üzerinden emellerini terketmiþ oluyordu. Bu antlaþma ile Osmanlý Devleti´nin Avrupa´daki üstünlüðünü saðlamlaþtýrdý. Avusturya ile anlaþmazlýk daha sonra da devam etti. Ferdinand, Osmanlý´larla yaptýðý anlaþmalara hiçe sayýp Macar topraklarýna saldýrdý. Fakat her seferinde yenildi. Zigetvar seferi Kanuni Sultan Süleyman Han´Ã½n son seferi yine Avusturya üzerine oldu (1566). Ancak Kanuni kuþatýlan Zigetvar´Ã½n alýnýþýný göremeden öldü. Alman imparatoru Þarlken ise hiçbir zaman doðrudan Kanuni Sultan Süleyman´Ã½n karþýsýna çýkamadý. Türkler karþýsýnda uðradýðý devamlý yenilgiler sonucu saltanattan çekilmek zorunda kaldý.

I have tried to translate , but wait for corrections as  I do not have deep knowledge on history and my English is not weel enought to translate articles on history:

Ottoman sultan was commander in chief. Usually he joined expeditions leading his army.  There were also times he did not go and assigned a vizier called “Serdar-ý Ekrem”. The expeditions that sultan himself attended are called “sefer-i hümayun”. Just as, Prophet himself leaded his army  in some expeditions and in some expeditions he did not attend and assigned someone as commander. First one called “gazve (gaza)” and latter is called “seriye”.

German expedition

When Ferdinand laid a siege to Budin again, Kanuni Sultan Süleyman decided to make a war directly with Þarlken (Karl V.) But Þarlken did not show up. This time Ferdinand was obliged to ask for peace. With Ýstanbul Agreement  (1533) he totally gave up Hungarian Kingdom. He agreed to be considered at the same level with a vizier. This way Karl V. abondened his desires on Hungary. With this agreement Otoman Empire stregthened its superiority in Europe. The conflict with Austria continued afterwards. Ferdinand disregarded the agreements with Ottomans and attacked Hungarian lands. But each time he was defeated. The expedition of  Zigetvar was Kanuni’s last expedition on Austria (1566). But Kanuni died before seeing sieged Zigetwar was taken. The German Emperior Karl could never stand against Kanuni. As aresult of defeats against Turks he was obliged to abdicate.
