War in the middle ages
The kings in the medieval time hired people called mercenaries to fight in there armies and navies. Mercenaries were hired soldiers. The armies then were broken into two parts; foot soldiers and archers. In the ages of castles and knights there were literally hundreds of battles in Europe alone! This meant that armies constantly had to be ready to fight. The battles were always loud with all of the shouting armour, clashing and, horses. After the battle was over the losing town was pillaged and the dead soldiers were stripped of their weapons and armour.
