How English Archers Made Knights Useless in One Afternoon

How English Archers Made Knights Useless in One Afternoon August 26, 1346. The French marched in with every possible advantage — 30,000 soldiers against just 9,000 Englishmen. They had the finest knights in Europe, the home field, and unshakable confidence. Four hours later, the field was littered with 1,500 dead French nobles. The English? They lost only forty men. Not four hundred — forty. This wasn’t just a battle. It was the death of medieval warfare. Desperate French knights trampled their own crossbowmen trying to reach the English lines. A blind king rode into battle, tied to his companions, charging straight into oblivion. And on the muddy slopes of Crécy, common peasants with longbows shattered centuries of noble dominance — in one afternoon. The Battle of Crécy ended an era where birth and blood defined power, proving that discipline and distance could outmatch armor and arrogance.
