One of the things that really bugs me about the movie "The King" is how much agency it takes away from Henry V by depicting him as an inexperienced boy king and semi-pacifist who's actions are almost all determined by his advisors. The film basically ignores most of the relevant history of Henry's upbringing and the fact that he had over a decade of both military and political experience before assuming the throne and was 11 years the senior of the Dauphin (who wasn't even at Agincourt historically). Worst yet, Henry doesn't even command the the center of his army at Agincourt and is instead put in charge of a detachment of soldiers hiding out in the forest.

@edburnett7237 3 года назад

The King is based on the Shakespeare play, which also ignores much of that. Besides, there was the assumption in the movie (and play) that Henry had seen battle and could fight.

In he play, the Dauphin also takes a (still fictitious, grant) secondary role to the real commander Charles D'Albret and never meets Henry.

@Beowulf245 3 года назад

Agincourt, along with Crecy and Poitiers, was one of the rare exceptions. Everyone tends to conveniently forget all the other battles in which the French heavy cavalry was triumphant. For example, the battle of Patay in 1429. The French knights smashed to pieces the English army that was almost 4(!) times as large. They simply obliterated the whole of the English army at basically no loss to themselves. Those few English archers and troops who managed to survive the massacre, wounded, tired and scared, ran away and fell easy prey to French peasants in the countryside, who remembered how the English had treated the French earlier during the Hundred Years' War. You may rest assured that the peasants paid them back in full. Another example would be the battle of Roosebeke in 1382, in which 6500 mounted French knights and men-at-arms wiped out the Flemish infantry, which numbered almost 30 000. These are just a couple of examples to illustrate my point. There were many more battles during the Late Middle Ages in which the French knights were victorious with few losses. Despite what English historians love to preach, knights would often turn out to be a decisive force on the battlefield provided no stupid mistakes were made. Also, it wasn't just the English archers that won Crecy and Agincourt. Again, most people tend to conveniently forget the English knights and men-at-arms that bore the brunt of the French knights' attacks. Also, such things as the location, the terrain, the weather conditions, the tactics, the fortifications, etc. should also be taken into account. Just my two cents.

And now we jump to Agincourt so that period is already over.

Dear K&G staff: first of all, thank you so much for all your amazing work. I cannot tell you how valuable your videos are for my History studies and general knowledge. Everytime I am drawn to a certain period, I come to the channel and use your material as an exploratory research. Thank you! I would love to see a video on the Battle of Aljubarrota (1385) during the Portuguese war of Succession (perhaps a series on it?). Besides being crucial in and of itself, it's fascinatingly intertwined with the Hundred Years War as each side took part in it. Aljubarrota was a magnificent show off of the English archers, having won over the French and Castilian mounted knights while outnumbered. It took place before Agincourt and it is very likely that Henry V had it in mind in 1415.

Tudor Welsh is closer than Plantagenet or Norman, York and Lancaster are pretty English, Cromwell was a self made monarch in all but name and he was English. Also Henry V grew up in England right?

Fun Fact: The man who saved the future Henry V from that arrow wound did it with a crudely crafted surgical tool. It was meant to remove the arrowhead which had dislodged. The arrowhead was eventually removed and the man who saved the prince earned himself a pension for life. Not bad for saving a royal. My compliments to all those who made this video a reality.

@pkgpk5564 3 года назад

Surgical tools existed in India, Egypt and China thousands of year ago. The first manual of Surgery was written by Sushruta in India in 600 BCE called Sushruta Samhita. While I agree with you the man who saved Henry 5 did great he was by no means the first one to devise such tools.

No commander of longbowmen would ever tell his archers to draw their bowstrings back and then 'wait'. That's ridiculous. The strength required to hold back a 100+ pound draw weight and just 'wait' would absolutely exhaust the archers, when they'd need their strength for dozens more draws, each a massive effort. It takes two seconds to draw a longbow. They'd have been told to nock, then draw and loose on command.

@mrdarren1045 Год назад

So what ? It's not like France would have been "oh ok, if it's Henry V we surrender lol" The situation would have been strictly the same than in reality. The English proclaim their King, the French proclaim theirs, and the French eventually win. Putting all the responsibility of the English defeat on Henry V's death is just a lazy way of refusing to acknowledge the complexity of the war, and a way of saying "the French only won with luck, they're still inferior to the English" and whatever bullshit appears in half of the comments under these videos.

@AndrewTateOfficial 3 года назад

@@nolletthibault2031 dude one of the biggest reasons for the English losing after Henry's death was because they had literally 0 morale as they were fighting for a 9 month old baby. That's when Joan of arc came and inspired the french to take back their lands as the english were completely demoralized they literally lost to a peasant girl that's how little resistance they put up. Now compare that to if henry V still lived, the english would have fought 10× harder for a king who fought with them on the battlefield and inspired massive morale in his men and that's one of the biggest reasons for the victory in agincourt. If any other king was in charge they would have surrendered or ran away when seeing such an army camping opposite them. But men wanted to die for henry v he was a great leader. Whereas after he was gone, all the men had to fight for was a little baby so obviously they lost the war. My point was if henry had lived then the English would have crushed the french Joan of arc would never be known. The french suffered from the same problems the English did, an incompetent king so of course they kept losing battles as all they were fighting for was a mad man. But once the dauphin became the next monarch who was a headstrong man. Their morale and efforts skyrocketed unlike the English who got a baby as their king

@nolletthibault2031 3 года назад

@@AndrewTateOfficial You know, for a professional soldier it makes little difference whether the king is a baby or an adult. Their job is to fight, and that's what they do. Bresides, they still had the duke of Bedford as a competent leader and the French moral was not exactly in a very good shape either. Again, putting the entire responsibility of the English defeat on Henry V's death is just a way of negating any competence the French may have had in the latter phase of the war. Plus, how do you know that Henry V would have won if he had lived ? I can imagine 500 scenarios in which he lives on but still gets defeated at some point, you could rewrite the history of the entire world as you like with "if". That's why this debate doesn't make any sense and I'm not going to continue it.
