Some suggestions: The miracle of Empel: 200 ships vs a Spanish infantry tercio. The ships surrounded the Spaniards who were on a river island and were asked to surrender. The reply? Spanish soldiers prefer death to dishonor. We will talk about surrender after death. One of the few examples of infantry winning a naval battle. It was considered a miracle because that very night there was a cold snap and the river completely froze. The Spaniards casually walked over to the enemy ships and killed everyone. The battle of Krasni Bor. 4500 Spaniards vs 38000 soviets with 90 tanks and 1000 artillery pieces. The Spaniards won. The battle of Cagayan: 40 Spaniards vs 1000 samurai. The Spaniards won.

King David, divided his troops, half of the Georgian army was gone, so Seljuks laughed when they saw small army like this, little did they know what was going to happen to them.
