I'm not going say anything at all about this guy's pronunciation, it doesn't matter because at the end of the day this is still a clear, understandable and articulate description of this famous battle and he's obviously knocked himself out making it. Kudos. The moral of this as it had been at Crecy and as it would be again at Agincourt was the same; don't run out of arrows.

The French King and his son were abandoned by his knights and was found sculking in a wood by a man at arms William de Birch. As he could not speak French he took the King and his son to his Lord who yn turn took him to the Black Prince. William de Birch was awarde the Arms of the King.

I will be honest I get my history from Bernard Cornwall, but didn’t the kings own brother lead his men as if to fight then off the field to escape!!!! What an out house as not to use bad language lol should’ve been hunted and executed for treason, being a coward as the least he can have shared his belief it was unwinable and told the king his intention of saving his life and the lives of his men so his own brother could have retreated rather than surrender so as not to come up with terms. However that would have meant us missing out on a win we nearly or at least considered surrender ourselves , good old England and just over 3 centuries of the Normans possibly making us a force to be recode with.

This is false... The king suffered an injury to the head during the battle and was captured by knight Denys de Morbecque.

French knight: Look sire! A large, wide field with an uphill run offering no cover. At the end we see the English position fortified on the right and left with a daunting hedgerow in the front. They seem to possess several thousand longbowmen. French king: Perfect! We shall charge them straight on then, that always works.

Arrogance and years of victory via the noble knights leading to functional blindness, probably connected to the high status of the knights and disdain for the commoners shooting those longbows.

But unfortunately there were many other battles… .. The last battle of the Hundred Years War was that of Castillon on July 17, 1453, during which the English leader John Talbot was killed. With this French victory, King Charles VII is on the way to reconquer the English possessions of King Henry VI. It only remains to besiege the city of Bordeaux to take over the province of Guyenne in its entirety. At the same time in England Henry VI lost his reason, which led the country into civil war. On October 19, 1453 Bordeaux, which could not count on the arrival of help, capitulated. It is the end of the military operations of the Hundred Years War. But this conflict so particular - because of its length and its unfolding - has the singularity of not having a treaty signifying its end. Begun with the confiscation of Guyenne, the Hundred Years War ended with its final recovery, 116 years later. some battles • June 24, 1340 Naval battle of L’Écluse • the English destroy the Franco-Genoese fleet which was blockading Bruges. • 1346 Battle of Crécy English victory. • 346-1347 Siege of Calais by the English. • 1347 Arrival of the Black Death in France. • 1356 Battle of Poitiers victory of the English, and capture of the King of France Jean le Bon. • May 1360 Treaty of Brétigny  the English obtain territorial concessions removing from France a third of the country. • May 1364 Battle of Cocherel • victory for Bertrand Du Guesclin over Charles de Navarre. • May 1364 Battle of Cocherel • victory for Bertrand Du Guesclin over Charles de Navarre. • 1370 Battle of Pontvallain • victory of Du Guesclin over the English. • 1372 Battle of La Rochelle • the English fleet is defeated by the Castilian fleet allied with France. • 1407-1422 Civil war in France between the Armagnacs and the Burgundians • October 1415 Battle of Azincourt severe French defeat, which Henri V will complete by conquering the northern part of the country. • October 1420 Treaty of Troyes •, which enshrines English supremacy over northern France and Aquitaine. • October 1428 Beginning of the siege of Orleans • by the English. • April 1429 Lifting of the siege of Orleans • June 1429 Battle of Patay • French victory, which opens the way for the reconquest of the north of the country. • July 1429 Coronation of Charles VII in Reims. Joan of Arc consecrates Charles VII in the symbolic city. • April 1436 Charles VII's troops retake Paris • April 1450 Battle of Formigny • French victory, which allows the reconquest of Normandy. • July 1453 Battle of Castillon It marks the first massive use of artillery • French victory, and reconquest of Guyenne. Last military shock of the Hundred Years War. • August 1475 Treaty of Picquigny • Louis XI and Edward IV seal the end of the conflict between France and England.

This account of the battle of Poitiers is, on a few points, not in conformity with what the historians have written , especially Frossard and the local chroniclers, who credited the french forces and their allied with at least 20000 men (instead of 11000); which explained that, at first, the english prefered to escape. They say also that the Captal de Buch attacked the rear of the french from the west, not from the east, where the french were strong, and where they had withdrawn (a map on the battlefield shows this). Generally speaking the vassals of the king of France were not confident with the military talents of their king (and of his brother) and feared to be captured and pay a ransom.

Tod's workshop is a great explanation of how effective (ineffective) warbows of this period were against the armor of the period. Although this type of fire is in every movie ever conceived that had longbows used en masse, there is zero evidence that they fired long, arcing shots. I know it seem counterintuitive, but falling from the sky has relatively little power, and is terribly inaccurate. Every reenactment or experiment I have seen with these arrows and warbows shows that they didn't often puncture armor.... They did slaughter horses when fired straight into them however, and then the riders hit the deck.... hard... and was then trampled by all the horses behind, which were then mowed down in another volley. I can almost guarantee that most of the French knights died by being stampeded, rather than through perforation.

@@RobbyP1969 Actually, a longbow could kill an unarmored person or horse at over 200 yards. And firing a longbow horizontally won't get the arrow nearly that far. Yes, they really DID shoot at an upward angle because they could kill at long range. Had archers waited until firing point-blank, cavalry or mounted infantry would be upon them in SECONDS.

That’s not how physics work. The arrow has its most energy and power when it leaves the bow, gravity is not strong enough to increase the joules of the arrow when it’s falling down, and will not increase its speed either, it’s actually opposite when an arrow is shot upwards it will lose its energy (power) faster (due to gravity dragging it backwards) than if you just shot it straight at a target. Therefore if you want the maximum amount of joules when your projectile hits its target you will want to shoot straight towards the target to conserve as much energy as possible within the projectile

Warwick--pronounced Worrick. 😁👍

This Guy has difficulty with basic English ... he has a reading age of 10

Y llego Castilla, y se le terminaron "las alegrias a Inglaterra ".

you want to get your name pronounciation correct .... its Not War Wick its "Warrick" (Warwick). if your going to call out names you got to get them right and your getting most them laughably wrong.

Doughfahn not Darfeen

The french king John II was particularly stupid, he had learnt nothing from the battle of Crecy, he repeated the same errors.

Pronunciation needs considerable improvement.

You really should research the correct pronunciation of English names.

Where did you learn to say the word "aristocracy"?? From a computerized voice?? "Aristocracy" is pronounced --- air-i-STAH-cruh-see. NOT -- air - I-stuh-cruh-see. You put the accent on the short I sound. The accent should be on the STAH sound.

Did the French ever win a battle?

Yes! They turned things around eventually. I also have a few videos on the major French victories: Patay, Formigny, and Castillon.

@@amadbiscuit k, ill check them out. Ive just noticed each of these kind of medieval battle videos its the English beating a superior French force not sure if its just the algorithm lol. But i figure if France is still around today they must have won enough battles. Throughout that 500ish year period

@@TheRealBatCave Because of Anglo propaganda.

In the battle of Agincourt, the participants were mostly too young to have known the previous disastrous battles. The duke of Berry had known that time, and he tried to warn the french knights, but he was not listened to, with the result we know. After this battle only, the french had started to learn the lesson, and they no more exposed themselves to the english arrows. Instead, they developped a new weapon, the artillery, which outclassed the longbows of the english, and gave them the advantage again. If they had continued to learn nothing from the previous lessons, they would have lost the war, and France would have become english.

poor the French defeated by a bush.

Its a pity you use american pronunciation of knights names and places in England and France. kind spoils the video.
