How 136 Norman Knights BROKE an Army of 50,000 Saracens in Sicily

Описание: On a scorching Sicilian morning in 1063, Roger de Hauteville stares down a mathematical impossibility: just 136 Norman knights facing a horizon-spanning ocean of 50,000 Saracen warriors near Cerami. Instead of retreating, Roger orders the unthinkable—a suicide charge straight into the teeth of the enemy. The ground shakes as heavy destriers thunder forward, launching a tight wedge formation that smashes into the Muslim lines like a medieval main battle tank. Lances buckle shields and shatter bodies as the sheer kinetic energy of the couched lance technique collapses the enemy center in seconds. Panic surges through the ranks as rumors spread of a glowing white knight—Saint George himself—fighting alongside the Christians in the dust and chaos. By sunset, the impossible is reality: a handful of armored horsemen have routed an empire’s army and violently rewritten the future of the Mediterranean.

Watch how a kill ratio of 368 to 1 created the most impossible victory in military history.
