Charles closed Parliament because they refused to help him and give him the money he needed and they were gaining to much power. The parliament had a list of demands to get more power off the King. The kings anger at the Parliament was, one of the main triggers of the Civil War. Many major demands consisting of the King to not make any important decisions in the name of religion, country or money without the Parliament approval. This made the King furious thus closing the Parliament was his only choice.
Charles I did not want to work with a Parliament, because the Parliament has the final say with matters such as laws. Charles I could propose a new law, but the Parliament can either accept it, or reject it.Charles didn't want a Parliament because he pretty much wanted absolute power. He wanted to make decisions on his own.The English Civil War, which Charles I lost, was Charles vs Parliament (led by Oliver Cromwell). Charles tried raising extra taxes without discussing it with the Parliament. Also, he married a Catholic princess, who influenced his decisions. Many were afraid that Charles would make the Church of England more Catholic. (He's Protestant.)All these problems led to the war, and eventually Charles lost, went into trial, and got beheaded.

Oliver Cromwell did not literally take soldiers into Parliament; rather, he was a key military leader during the English Civil War. He played a significant role in the New Model Army, which was instrumental in the conflict between Parliament and the monarchy. The culmination of this tension led to the removal of many members of Parliament and the eventual trial of King Charles I, rather than a direct armed incursion into Parliament by Cromwell himself.
Actually, it was said that it was 11 years that Charles dismissed parliament.
