Legnica
9 Apr 1241 — A feint force, sent only to keep Poland off Hungary’s back, destroys Duke Henry’s army of Poles, Germans and military orders. Nine sacks of ears, say the chronicles. Europe’s heavy cavalry has met the composite bow and the feigned retreat.
This is one scene of Chapter 6 — The Storm on the West in The Mongol Empire, 1206–1294.
