What new weapon helped the English defeat the french?

The English defeat of the French in battles like Agincourt during the Hundred Years' War was significantly aided by the longbow. This powerful ranged weapon allowed English archers to shoot arrows with great speed and accuracy, effectively piercing armor at a distance. The longbowmen's ability to unleash a high volume of projectiles overwhelmed the French forces, who were often reliant on heavily armored knights. This tactical advantage contributed to several key English victories against the French.

Why are the English able to defeat the French in early battles?

The English were able to defeat the French in early battles due to a combination of superior military tactics, particularly the effective use of the longbow, which allowed them to strike from a distance before the French could engage in close combat. Additionally, the English forces often employed disciplined formations and took advantage of the terrain to offset their smaller numbers. The French, on the other hand, were often hampered by outdated strategies and internal divisions, which made their army less effective in early engagements. These factors contributed to key English victories during conflicts such as the Hundred Years' War.
