In the Kingdom of France, the influence of the Carolingian family cannot be underestimated at any time, as an ancient family that has ruled the Kingdom of France for hundreds of years, it has an unparalleled historical heritage.

As the last member of the Carolingian family, the Earl of Vimanduwa, Ed. Carolingian has a huge influence in France, and the ancestors of the Capetian dynasty had the opportunity to ascend to the position of the Kingdom of France by virtue of their marriage to the Carolingian dynasty.

It can be said that the princes and kings of the French dynasty all had Carolingian blood in them, and they were proud of it, often claiming to be descendants of the Carolingian dynasty.

In France and Europa, the Carolingian family represents orthodoxy, and its status is equivalent to that of Zhou Tianzi.

For such a family with wide influence, it was only natural that Henry I wanted to be angry with Earl of Vimanduwa. Carolingian was on guard, and over the years he had used a lot of tactics against the Count of Vimandua in order to make the Carolingian family extinct and prevent any careerist from taking over the Kingdom of France in the name of the Carolingian dynasty.

However, now was the critical moment for dealing with the Normans, and Henry I relaxed his suppression of the Carolingian family and began to woo Ode. Caroling.

However, it was too late to say anything, the Normans had already begun to win over the Earl of Vimandua and the Carolingians, and as Henry I persecuted the Carolingians, the Earls of Vimandua and the Carolingians began to fall to William's side.

The original purpose was for the Carolingians to help William forge his claim to the Kingdom of France, proving that William had the right to notify the Kingdom of France.

Although Henry I was very angry about the departure of the Carolingian family, he did not care, the war with the Normans was still decided by the strength in his hands, and the righteous name in the hands of the Carolingian family could only play a role in the hands of the powerful and the victors.

Even more annoying to Henry I was his half-brother, Robert, Duke of Burgundy, who, in order to win them over to his faction, had promised him that after the end of the war against the Normans, he would change the law of succession and make the Duke of Burgundy the heir to the throne of France, rather than her son Philip.

He knew very well that only the crown on his head could be fatal to the Duke of Burgundy, and only then could he put aside his hatred and join the war against the Normans.

Originally, in Henry I's plan, he planned to defeat the Normans again, and force the Duke of Burgundy to give up his inheritance and claim to the Kingdom of France with the threat of a great victory, and even in his heart he had the purpose of using this war to weaken the strength of the French princes, especially his most uneasy brother Duke of Burgundy.

However, according to the information sent by his spies, the more than 6,000 troops sent by the Duke of Burgundy were not his main force, but the conscripts of some nobles who did not deal with the Duke of Burgundy.

The real main forces of the Duke of Burgundy were still entrenched in the Duchy of Burgundy and Dijon, and even continued to recruit soldiers and vassals.

From Robert's every move, Henry I can see that he has a bad idea about himself, and seems to be planning to fish in troubled waters in the war, and send troops to seize the Kingdom of France when the two sides are inextricably fighting, which is undoubtedly the point that Henry I is most worried about.

From the perspective of ancestral inheritance and family inheritance, Henry I's greatest enemy should not actually be William, who did not show ambition for the French throne, but should be Robert, Duke of Burgundy, who threatened him the most, as long as the other party had sufficient strength, he could use his strong claims to the Kingdom of France to launch a rebellion and seize the French throne.

It was not that Henry I was unaware of this, but he, carried away by hatred, relaxed his vigilance against the Duke of Burgundy, and he still does.

Although Henry I had deep apprehension about Robert the Duke of Burgundy, he was conceited and did not take it to heart, believing that if he had defeated him once, he could defeat him again and completely crush his ambitions.

"Not enough, not enough, it's not enough!" Henry I banged on the table and muttered with a frown.

38,000 troops is still not very safe, but the Normans claim to have the strength of one enemy and ten, especially when they are about to face the terrible First Legion, they are still not very sure of fighting with twice the number of troops, and they still need more troops.

Again, Henry I turned his attention to Gichome VII, Duke of Aquitaine, who had the most extensive territory in France, and the wavering Duke of Toulouse, and only needed to win over the Duke of Aquitaine to join his side, at least let him send troops to contain the garrison around Anjou, and this time the real situation against the Normans would be stable.

......

After a few busy days, Henry I realized that the time was right, and his spies spoed out a terrifying piece of information from the court of Rouen.

The Normans had already made a big noise on the Irish battlefield, annihilating the main forces of the Irish princes, and Wales had the upper hand on the battlefield because of the accession of the Kingdom of England, and the Normans were about to conquer Wales and Ireland.

The Norman King William chose not to report the news of this great victory, but instead stepped up the gathering of his army, and transferred the famous general Count Rodrigo from the Irish battlefield back to Normandy, and with him returned to Normandy a reorganized army of 16,000 men.

This news undoubtedly frightened Henry I, who had already anticipated Henry I's actions, and waited like a seasoned hunter for Henry I's prey to run into the trap he had already laid out.

Henry I cringed at the thought of this horrific situation, and he sent agents to Rouen, Ireland, and Wales again to investigate the situation, to see if the news was true.

At the same time, he sent people to inform his allies to stop preparing for war first, and he himself stopped buying war materials and recruiting soldiers.

Everything depends on the information sent back by his spies, and if the information is true, if the information of Love is a trap prepared by William, Henry I will not foolishly jump into it.

However, the gears of war have already begun to turn, and it is not something that Henry I alone can stop......
