Marignan 1515

The Swiss encountered Francis's forces at the little burnt-out village of Marignano on a featureless plain.
A treaty signed, the French were not expecting battle.
Francis was in his tent, trying on a new suit
of armor, when scouts reported the coming of the Swiss. The French army quickly sprang into action, forming up in three divisions:
the vanguard, posted slightly forward and on the right under Charles III, Duke of Bourbon,
the Constable of France; the central battle, commanded by the King, slightly trailing the right;
and on the left and even further back, the “rearguard” commanded by the Duke of Alençon
Each division was a combined arms force of infantry, cavalry and artillery.
Massed in front of Francis’ center division was a grand battery of seventy-two field guns
guarded by the infamous Black Legion, or Black Band. Also with the king's division
was the Chevalier Bayard and his company, the foremost lancers in the French army
Result:Decisive Franco-Venetian victory Swiss cantons signed the Treaty of Fribourg establishing the Perpetual Peace
