黒軍 (ハンガリー)
Although the Counts Szentgyörgyi commenced using their title in their deeds, in the Kingdom of Hungary, public law did not distinguish them from other nobles. The tide turned when they were pleased by Matthias' promises, changed their affiliation and joined forces with him. The second battle thus was successful in defending the Hungarian crown and the integrity of the nobility. The precise location of the battle is unknown since the historical records only guess where it could have situated.
↑ Matthias' attack followed a papal call for crusade against the heretic Czech king. He was promised that Frederick III would join, but it remained oral aid.
He states that the second wave of Poles was slaughtered by peasants and citizents while marching home, while the prince fled days before, after meeting Matthias and had been spared by him. Hungarian Johannes de Thurocz agrees while adding that a counterattack followed the events where Hungarians attacked the counties of Zemplén and Sáros still under Polish possession and drove them out and intruded into Poland as well for prowling (it is worth noting that these events show remarkable similarities to those that took place two years later). While Polish historian Jan Długosz argues that the incursion happened upon invitation and that no state of war came into existance.
世紀の絶頂期には重騎兵は既に絶頂期を迎えていたが凋落の傾向を示していた。打撃力と支援抜きでの突撃する能力は重騎兵をほとんどの戦場で決定的な結果をもたらす可能性があった。重騎兵は自ら展開することはめったになかったが、仮に展開するとするならばそれは四角い陣形であった。1479年のBreadfieldでターニングポイントが起きた。大概、重騎兵は1から6の軍隊と騎士の傭兵から成っており、主力軍であった。その装備は貴族の連隊を除けば、良質の物が準備され、質も高かった。装備の所持は個々によるものではなく、国王から貸与されたものである。
