Facing a threatened invasion of Moravia by Hussite heretics, a fresh crusade of Catholic Germans marched into northwest Bohemia (in the modern Czech Republic) against former priest, Prokob the Bald, who commanded following the death of the great leader Jan Zizka. Prokob achieved a decisive victory on the Elbe at Aussig (modern Usti nad Labem) and won again next year at Tachov.
