Battle of Tours |
Today I am interviewing Charles Martel.
Q: Hello Charles. I was wondering if you could tell me about the Battle of Tours.
A: Yes I can. It began on October 10, 732.
Q: okay, and how did it begin?
A: Well, a Muslim army was in search for new land. They began to invade Western Europe under the leadership of Abd-er Rahman, governor of Spain.
Q: Do you know how many soldiers they had?
A: Oh yes. They had about 400,000 soldiers and they have had many victories so they were ready to defeat us.
Q: And what happened after that?
A: Umm, I guess after that we didnt want muslim invasion of western europe. They came to the outside of the city where they ran into me. I was also with my army. I gathered my forces on the muslim army.
Q: How did the battle go?
A: There were so many weapons involved but my army had great attack.
Q: Can you tell me how this battle concluded?
