The Battle of Agincourt was the final battle in the 1415 invasion of France by Henry V. He was fighting to claim the throne of France from King Charles the Mad and also to avenge the men that died in the Siege of Soissons. The invasion began with the lengthy siege of Harfluer in which much of Henry's army fell sick with dystentry and died. The 12,000 strong army was halved in size and Henry decided to march this small force of just over 6000 men from Harfluer to Calais but after being unable to cross the Somme they had to travel in land and they were caught by a French army (numbers range between 15,000-30,000) near the castle of Agincourt. The battle was fought on St Crispin's day in atrocious conditions. The English eventually won when their archers defeated the numerous French attacks For more information in a fictional sense I can recommend Bernard Cornwell's 'Agincourt' but bear in mind that this is a work of fiction based on true events.
About 1,330,000 men were involved in the Battle of the Bulge
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.
