This isn't true.
The white cross on a red background represented the french. The red cross on a white background were the colors of Genoa and later adopted by the english. The HYW was a conflict where both armies used these colors to distinguish themselves.
Pic related : The battle of Castillon. The guys behind the cannons are the french, and as you can see they use reddish uniforms with the white cross. Talbot (The guy with the golden armor and the red cape with golden lions) is being cut down by two soldiers with red/white cross uniforms, while english soldiers and longbowmen behind are using white/red cross uniforms.

You're wrong
The pic >>3291932 is fully right, that's how it was during the Crusades (long before the HYW)
It came from an agreement between French and English kings

>In 1188 red and white crosses were chosen to identify the French and English troops in the "Kings' Crusade" of Philip II of France and Henry II of England, respectively. Together with the Jerusalem Cross, the plain red-on-white became a recognizable symbol of the crusader from about 1190, and in the 13th century it came to be used as a standard or emblem by numerous leaders or polities who wanted to associate themselves with the crusades.

During the Crusades, the French used red crosses (on white background) and the English used white crosses (on red background)

Nope

It was then later adopted by Genoese and Anglos as Saint George's Cross
