Attacking With Medieval Strategy.
Back then was not very similar to modern armies, and knights did not train together, but only train on household groups or at the tournaments (Philip Dixon,"Knights & Castles").In the start the Knights on the horse will charge with Lance and the foot soldiers will charge together as a group, but there is always more things waiting for them. They sometimes charge into the bait, the bait will hold off enemies while archers and other many soldiers from the flank attack the enemies and it was only matter of times...

Defending With Medieval Strategy.
Medieval Castle is Big and Defended with big wall with rivers was around the castle. The only way in for a castle is to bring down the Draw bridge or break a wall and to go inside the castle so defenders have advantage to defend (Philip Dixon,"Knights & Castles"). There is 3 main reasons to not easily get raided when you are in a castle. 1. You can always trust your castle. The castle wall has thick scale so rock couldn't penetrate the wall easily. 2. The environment. When you live in a mountain it is slippery and easily dominated, when you live in the river area the river water is deep and need to get accross the river with certain tools. 3. The Defenders have alot of power, with the whole military in the castle and archers are always powerful for the defenders (Philip Dixon,"Knights & Castles"). The Defenders also have Materials to defend with like boiling oil for burning, and stickiness, dead animals or body(germ infection), poop(germ infection) and boiling water (Philip Dixon,"Knights & Castles").
