Philip and his court of peers declared on the 7th ofSeptember, 1341, that Brittany belonged to Charles of Blois, who at oncedid homage for it to the King of France, whilst John of Montfort demandedand obtained the support of the King of England. War broke out betweenthe two claimants, effectually supported by the two kings, whonevertheless were not supposed to make war upon one another and in theirown dominions. The feudal system sometimes entailed these strange anddangerous complications.
If t...he two parties had been reduced for leaders to the two claimantsonly, the war would not, perhaps, have lasted long.
In the first campaign the Count of Montfort was made prisoner at thesiege of Nantes, carried off to Paris, and shut up in the tower of theLouvre, whence he did not escape until three years were over. Charles ofBlois, with all his personal valor, was so scrupulously devout that heoften added to the embarrassments and at the same time the delays of war. He never marched without being followed by his almoner, who took with himeverywhere bread, and wine, and water, and fire in a pot, for the purposeof saying mass by the way.
