How King Baldwin’s 500 Knights CRUSHED Saladin’s 26,000 In One Day - Battle Of Montgisard

Описание: Baldwin IV—the “Leper King”—bets everything on speed and shock. With 500 knights and a hard-marching core of infantry, he cuts across the coastal plain, catches Saladin’s 26,000 strung out near Montgisard, and hits before the Sultan can form a proper battle line. The Templars drive the point of the charge, the royal banner surges behind them, and the dust turns into a wall as lances smash home. What starts as a probing strike becomes a rolling collapse: vanguards overrun, center buckles, and the rear never gets a chance to save the front. By dusk, the field is a rout, supply wagons abandoned, and a “can’t-miss” campaign is bleeding men on the road to safety. This is how a sick young king, a relic standard, and five hundred armored riders turned a massive invasion into a panicked retreat—in a single day.
