...Chilperic and Ragenfrid flee toward Paris …
Years: 717 - 717
...Chilperic and Ragenfrid flee toward Paris, pursued by Charles. However, rather than pressing the siege, Charles redirects his efforts toward consolidating power in Austrasia. Recognizing the need to eliminate any remaining threats to his rule, he turns back to confront Plectrude, who still holds Cologne, the seat of power in Austrasia.
This victory at Vincy establishes Charles as the undisputed military leader of Francia. His campaign against Plectrudeand his consolidation of Austrasian support will mark the next step in his rise to absolute power, paving the way for his later dominance over the entire Frankish kingdom.
