Battle Of The Inn
The Battle of the Inn was fought in 913, when a Hungarian raiding army, at their return from plunder attacks against Bavaria, Swabia, and Northern Burgundy, faced the combined army of Arnulf, Duke of Bavaria, Counts Erchanger and Burchard of Swabia, and Lord Udalrich, who defeated them at Aschbach by the River Inn. Sources The skirmish at the Inn River is mentioned by the '' Annales Alamannici'' (continued by Hermann of Reichenau in the 11th century), the '' Annales iuvavenses'', the ''Continuatio Treverensis chronici Reginonis'' (the continuation of Regino of Prüm's ''Chronicon'', who wrote at Trier in 967), and the '' Annales Sangallenses maiores'' (another continuation of the ''Annales Alamannici'', compiled in the Abbey of Saint Gall). The last one suggests that "''the entire'' ungarian''army was destroyed, but thirty men''" ''nisi 30 viros''" Historian Károly Szabó argued this figure is a result of a subsequent insertion. The battle is marginally also mentioned by t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Battle Of Lechfeld (910)
The first Battle of Lechfeld (the first Battle of Augsburg in Hungarian historiographySzabados György: Vereség háttér nélkül? Augsburg, 955), fought on 12 June 910, was an important victory by a Magyar army over the combined forces of East Francia and Swabia ( Alamannia) under the nominal command of Louis the Child. Located approximately south of Augsburg, the Lechfeld is the floodplain that lies along the river Lech. At this time the Grand Prince of the Hungarians was Zoltán, but there is no record of him taking part in the battle. This battle is one of the greatest examples of the success of the feigned retreat tactic used by nomadic warriors, and an example of the effective use of psychological warfare.
