Guy, who had failed in his bid…
July 888 CE
Guy, who had failed in his bid to take the West Frankish throne, returns to Italy in summer 888 to gather an army from among the Spoletans and Lombards and oppose Berengar.
This he does, but the battle they fight near Brescia in the fall is a slight victory for Berengar, though his forces are so diminished that he sues for peace nevertheless.
The truce is to last until January 6, 889.
