    Imagine if you will, being an english longbowman, a poor peasant from a small village somewhere in the middle of the island you call home, the only place you'ever known, and being enlisted in the king's army to fight these french in their own land, believing that in case of capture your firing fingers will be cut off, and that you'll be either held for ransom, if your family is ever going to have enough money for it, or outright killed. You're a stranger in stranger's land, where local people speak a different language, have different traditions, fear and hate you, you're cold, wet, hungry, more often than not ill, overworked, underslept, and in front of you there are thousands of knights in heavy armor, riding towards you, filling your whole field of view. Imagine the fear, the absolute horror of multiple waves of huge horses mounted by men wholly clad in metal, charging down on you, filled of hatred and murderous intents. The veterans of this battle sure will have had some tales to tell...

      English longbowmen were among the most hardcore soldiers in European history. Archaeologists can tell which skeletal remains today belong to that of a longbowman because there is a noticeable difference in the development of the arm bones.
      This battle was the result of the English learning from previous battles with both the Welsh and the Scots. King Edward knew there was no way he could match the French knights on horseback, but battles with the Scots taught the English some very hard and humbling lessons regarding the use of cavalry; like making a wall of pointy death for the mounted knights to ride themselves into before any survivors get bludgeoned and hacked.

      @@ceberskie119 It did and was often successful. Crecy was ultimately the outcome of a whole host of factors that led to disaster - first, any army in pre-modern warfare was notoriously hard to keep tight command and control over. The great commanders of their times (which Philip VI was not) literally spent every last ounce of energy just keeping control over their own forces. Second, you'd be amazed at how quickly a mass of people moving in one direction simply takes on a life of its own. If you've ever been in a large crowd, you may have seen this in action - now add the additional stress of actual combat into the mix. Much of the French advance was simply "well, I guess we're all going this way, now. YOLO" and there was nothing anyone could really do to stop it. Lastly, there were cultural elements at play - the French had just come off an almost 2 century long streak of being the unquestioned masters of the medieval battlefield. What few defeats they did have in that time were seen as complete aberrations. The intense pride that French chivalric classes had in their capabilities was borderline fanatical. Crecy was the battle that turned their entire world on its head - to use an American sports analogy, it would be like the Cleveland Browns not only getting to the Super Bowl, but then annihilating the Patriots in a blowout. All of Europe was rocked to their cores by Crecy and the old feudal way of war - though it would absolutely hobble on for another century or so - would never really recover.

    one of the reasons the English archer were so effective against the french knights wasnt just because of the fortifications they made previous to the battle or because their arrow could penetrate plate armour(there is no evidence of high quality armour being penerated) but because despite the knight being in full plate their horses were mostly unarmored, making the knight fall strongly to the ground and face a muddy terrain due to the rain from the previous day.
    Basically when they arrived on foot to fight the english the French knigths were already out of breath and pretty bruised(an arrow on a plate armour might not penetrate but the blunt force behind the arrow still hurts a lot)

      Much better than the regular skins, to be sure, but the pigface bascinets (named after the existing model at Churburg Castle) worn by many of the knights are more appropriate to Azincourt than Crecy. Even at Poitiers they would have been too early, in my opinion.

I remember the big joke was when,after we killed him, one of us said "I bet he didn't see that coming". Oh we laughed till we cried. You really had to be there. This brought back so many memories.

      Similar eerie effect when I visited Towton, with a massive hangover (come to think of it I've done a few battlefield tours with blinding hangovers, I think it adds to the ambience). Stood looking up the slope imagining a rain of arrows coming out of the snow, turned to look at the treacherous slope into the beck where the Lancastrians routed.

    Impressive graphics and telling. I'm currently reading The Hundred Years war. The main thing I would add is that (as explained in the book) Edward had been set and rested several days, with trenches built as you explain, while the French had basically just arrived to the scene while travelling. Their first attack was haphazard as miscommunication and plan of attack were not set. The first group of French basically attacked for honor of country instead of being coordinated with successive groups. That's when the rout started and retreating soldiers caused others to panic and flee also. Nightfall caused retreaters to disband and become disoriented in the woods preventing them from regrouping or getting back to the main body of soldiers. Then Philippe basically gave up.

  • @andrewhohenhaus2592
    @andrewhohenhaus2592 2 года назад +209

    The depiction of the use of the longbow was rather sad - the carnage that they caused was due to massed volleys and the English archers, by law, were required to practiced every Sunday after church services in their local villages so they could achieve rates of fire of up to 10 arrows a minute - the longbows provided up to a 100 pound pull, which gave them significant range beyond normal bows (heavy crossbows used by the Genoese (all those that were shown here were light ones) could match the range but they took at least 30 seconds to crank the bow back, or required the crossbowman to pull the bow back sitting down and using their legs)

      Not just that. The average English subject wasn't allowed to personally own a bow meant for war use. Their personal bows could only have so much pull to them in order to be legal to retain and use.

    "Far be it that the King of Bohemia should run away. Instead, take me to the place where the noise of the battle is the loudest. The Lord will be with us. Nothing to fear. Just take good care of my son."

    This act of selflessness is probably what makes him one of the greatest Bohemian kings.

      I love it also, but this is 19th century romantic invention, in fact no one knows what he really said. But, Emanuel Vlček, a famed Czech anthropologist examined his skelleton and found out, that a mortal wound to his body was a probably Spear to his back and dagger to the eye, which means that he really got that far to get passed the archers and got involved in the mellee fight. So there got to be something to this legend.

      ​@Arnold Squirrel
      I understand your skepticism, however,
      John the Blind as the king of Bohemia being allied with the Kingdom of France came to aid the French after Philip VI of France called upon his allies for help. This was a common thing back then in order to maintain stable diplomatic relations.
      As for the intentions of his final charge there are a few versions. Some historians say that he was among the first knights to charge the English lines while others prefer a version where he charged at the end of the battle when the outcome was already obvious.
      This doesn't change the fact however that charging the enemy lines was his own decision, he could have lingered at the back of the French lines if he wanted yet he decided to ride against the English lines. Some historians even say that this was an act of suicide hence the life of a blind man lost its meaning for him, but perhaps he sought death worthy of his chivalrous reputation.
      No one can no for sure how it went down that day, what we do know however is that John the Blind could have died a coward, dying of old age after fleeing the battlefield along with the rest of the French army but instead he decided to die a chivalrous honorable death.

French cavalry broke on the day of Crecy and Takeda cavalry on the day of Nagashino while their opponent armies stood still and literally didnt move an inch to fight their cavalry.

    Amazing video. Thanks for it!
    It is interesting for me, the king John is called John of Bohemia, because here in "Bohemia" we call him John of Luxemburg.
    He was the father of one of our most famous king and the Holy Roman emperor Charles IV. which was also present and fighting in the battle.
    It is sometimes said John of Lux...oh - of Bohemia - knew he will die there and he desired to get an honorable knightly death on the battlefield rather than in the bed saying his famous words: God forbid that a Bohemian king should ever flee from a fight.
    His son, Charles IV, injured few times during the fight, had to be dragged from the battle to save the house. He later brought a golden age to the czech lands despite the harsh events and was quite succesful in keeping peace, unlike his father John.
    A legend says he once strangled a robbery knight here in Bohemia with his bare hands as an example of his devotion to his kingdom.
    His son Wenceslas IV was unfortunately not a good king, which had to be corrected by the other son - Sigismund.
    But that is a story from another historical game - Kingdome Come.
    Thank you again for the video, greetings from Prague and keep loving the history : 333
