Historical artwork depicting the Battle of Battle of Crécy

Edward III's English army, anchored by devastating longbow fire, destroyed a much larger French force that charged uphill in disorganized waves. The French suffered catastrophic losses among their nobility, including the blind King John of Bohemia who rode into battle tied to his knights. Crécy demonstrated the dominance of the English longbow and heralded the decline of mounted knightly warfare.

The blind King John of Bohemia insisted on fighting at Crecy. He had his horse tied to two knights' horses so they could lead him into battle, where all three were killed together.
