Among them, Lottel, as the eldest son, gained the most importantKingdom of Italy, and upgraded to heir.This made him a leading figure among the Frankish princes, who was below one person and above ten thousand people.
Armed rebellion
However, in 823 AD, this situation was broken: this year, Judith, the new queen of the pious Louis, gave birth to a son, who will become famous in the futureBaldy Charlie。The pious Louis immediately announced that he would set aside another piece of land for Charlie.This led to his other three sons, LottelPipingandGermanicLouie's strong dissatisfaction.Therefore, the three openly provoked armed rebellion!
The situation was very unfavorable to the pious Louis.Because many territories originally loyal to Louis rebelled under the persuasion of Lottel and other three people.And the PopeUm, I'm not sureKing IV also came forward to warn the pious Louis that the religious power must be higher than the imperial power.In desperation, the pious Louis had to abdicate.The first round ended with the victories of Lottel, Pippin and Germanic Louis.

According to his will, Lotaire should have succeeded to the throne.But then Charles Baldhead (after Pippin's death in 838, Lottel andGerman LouisHe was elected and recognized as the lord of Aquitaine) and German Louis were both separated from each other.Therefore, if Lottel wants to ensure thatFrankish Empire The rule of the whole territory must eliminate these twoMilitary threats。In view of this, he decided to attack bald Charlie first.
In this case, bald Charlie decided to unite with German Louis,gather forceJointly fight against Lottel.Lottel also came from empty country.Therefore, on June 25, 841, the two parties signed a contract in Fontenoy en Poisaye (also referred to as "Fontenoy en Poisaye")Fontenoy[1])The two sides met and fought fiercely.The battle was one of the largest one-day battles in medieval Europe, with more than 150000 troops in both armies.After a day of fighting, the losses of both sides were roughly the same, but the cost was extremely heavy (the casualties of both sides totaled more than 40000 people). The Lotaire army did not support and retreated first.Since then, the full-scale civil war has been out of control.
In the following year, Lottel worked hard with German Louis andBaldy CharlieThe two forces are at war.In 842 AD, Germanic Louis and bald Charles published a programmatic document《Oaths of Strasbourg 》。He put forward the idea of the East West alliance to defeat Lottel completely.For Lotaire, who ruled the middle of the Frankish Empire, this was fatal: from then on, he would be attacked by both the east and the west.
