The Battle of Německý Brod took place on 10 January 1422, in Německý Brod (German: Deutschbrod). The Hussites besiege 2,000 Royalist Crusaders. The Crusaders are no match for the Hussites and Německý Brod is quickly taken and sacked. A Royalist arsenal and supply train, numbering some 500 wagons, is captured. It will be one of the biggest loots that the Hussites will have throughout the whole war.
