at midday how did saxon react when normans began retreating
The Saxons began to hate during the early medieval period, particularly when they clashed with other groups such as the Vikings and the Normans.
When the Normans began to retreat after their initial invasion, the Saxons, emboldened by this perceived weakness, attempted to regroup and take advantage of the situation. They launched counterattacks and sought to reclaim territory lost during the conflict. However, the Norman forces, despite their retreat, were able to maintain organization and ultimately regroup, leading to further clashes that solidified Norman control over England. The initial Saxon resurgence was short-lived as the Normans adapted and countered effectively.
