∙ 14y agoThe 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.
When the Battle of Frace happened, the original french army had over 2 million soldiers Once France was occupied by the Germans in 1940s, the Free French Forces (FFF) took other the french army and in it short lastence, it had 1,750 soldiers. So about 4 million was in french army in total
Although Robert E. lee's Army of Northern Virginia lost almost one third of its fighting force to casualties, Lee's retreat back to Virginia allowed him to refurbish the army's losses.New recruits volunteered in the aftermath of the battle and conscription added to Lee's army's manpower. Although the North had more resources to rebuild the Army of the Potomac, it was Lee's army that proportionately gained more strength. Also, Lee was able to resupply his army and it grew in size to 80,000 troops. His men were judged to be in better physical shape than the Army of the Potomac.The aftermath increased the odds to three to two in favor of the Union's previously much larger ratio vs the Souths.
the french army of that period wasn't exactly feared but it commanded a great degree of respect both from the Germans and the English. this respect was earned through its sheer size (4,5 million men in peace time) and of the relatively modern equipment and training. so to sum it up, it wasn't feared but it was the third biggest army on the continent and perhaps in the whole world, so it was given a healthy amount of respect from it's adversaries. namely the Germans.
