Despite signing a treaty in 1428 to end the war with Florence and Venice, Milan soon resumed military raids, provoking an invasion by a Venetian-Florentine army under Francesco Bussone Count Carmagnola. Near the Po at Soncino, Carmagnola was disastrously defeated by Sforza of Milan. He lost again a few days later in a great naval battle on the Po near Cremona.
