Completely wrong, the English spotted the French scouts and they were prepared.
They actually started constructing fortifications and stakes but failed to completely finish them.
The frontal charge of the French was met with about 3000 longbowmen and 2000 men at arms, an elite army of the English led by two of their most esteemed military commanders.
They were prepared and they were still slaughtered regardless because, and this might shock you, heavy cavalry does a really good job at killing people if it's not stuck in mud.
The same happened at the battle of La Brossiniere(
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle...ossini%C3%A8re ) where a couple of hundred French knights detached from the main army and frontally, uphill and in a forest, charged the English army and destroyed them with loosing only
1 knight who died in melee and "a few others".
The longbowmen were completely incapable of penetrating their armor even in point blank range, in fact, and I repeat this often, there is
not a single historical source mentioning a person being killed by an
arrow or bolt penetrating his plate armor.
Seriously,
0, not a single one.
But the argument is the same regardless, the French were incapable or (more likely)unwilling to pursue the routing English, even though they were mounted and the English were on foot.
That was my argument, that chasing down scattered troops was not as safe as total war "continue battle" mode would like you to believe.
