16. Dangers of Mercenaries Edward's army was the first large mercenary (i.e. paid or even professional) army of medieval Europe. Its members were paid by the day and in the loot they could plunder. The army was ordered to "work" all the time for their money, not just at the set piece battles between soldiers that had formed the stuff of medieval history to date. "Working" meant not just plunder and looting of everyone and everything in sight, but also a scorched earth policy of destroying, burning and laying waste - not to mention rape and murder. It has been estimated that in just two months in 1355, the Black Prince managed to devastate 18,000 square miles of south west France.
