Battle of Legnica (1241)
On the Mongol Empire map as “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.
