Most of the French soldiers at the Battle of Agincourt were killed primarily due to a combination of longbow fire from the English archers and the difficult terrain. The muddy battlefield hindered the French cavalry and infantry, making them vulnerable to the English volleys. Additionally, the French forces were hampered by poor coordination and overconfidence, which contributed to their heavy casualties. Ultimately, the English longbowmen played a decisive role in decimating the French ranks.
At the Battle of Agincourt, which took place on October 25, 1415, the English forces numbered approximately 6,000 to 9,000 men, while the French forces were estimated to be between 20,000 and 30,000 soldiers. The English army was significantly outnumbered, yet they achieved a remarkable victory due in part to their use of longbows and the difficult terrain. The battle is noted for its impact on the Hundred Years' War and the rise of English nationalism.
