The Frankish king and the Septimanian counts …
Years: 759 - 759
The Frankish king and the Septimanian counts had gone on to invest Narbonne, the main Umayyad stronghold in Septimania, but do not manage to capture it from Iberian Muslims until seven years later in 759, only after Pepin promised the defenders of the city to uphold the Gothic law, and the county is granted to Miló, the Gothic count in Muslim times, thus earning the loyalty of Septimania's Goths against Waifer of Aquitaine.
Al-Andalus is sealed off at the Pyrenees.
