What happened in England 1428?

Answer 1

In 1428, the English sought to declare Henry VI's

claim to the French throne through the Treaty of Troyes. Already having much of northern France with their Burgundian allies, 6,000 English soldiers landed at Calais under the leadership of the Earl of Salisbury. These were soon met by another 4,000 men drawn from Normandy by the Duke of Bedford.

Heading south, they succeeded in capturing Chartres and several other towns by late August. Occupying Janville,

they next drove on the Loire Valley and took Meung

on September 8. After moving downstream to take Beaugency,

Salisbury dispatched troops to capture Jargeau.
