When Henry V of England was recognised by Charles VI of France as his heir, the disinherited son, the Dauphin Charles VII, gathered troops (including Scottish mercenaries) and at Baugé, in Anjou, attacked an English force led by Henry’s brother Thomas Duke of Clarence. The Duke was defeated and killed and the victory rallied support for the Dauphin.
