On 26 August 1346, Edward III chose his ground at Crécy and turned a larger French army into chaos. Longbowmen, fieldworks, and disciplined infantry shattered repeated cavalry charges, while early cannon added shock and smoke to the fight. In this episode we track the march, the tactics, the storm-soaked opening, and the aftermath that led straight to Calais.
