When Rollo led the Danes in a siege, they were formidable enough to persuade Charles the Simple that they might become valuable allies. Richard, Duke of Burgundy split his forces into three corps. The first was made up of Aquitanians, assisted by a group of Neustrian nobles. According to legend, Bishop Gantelme exposed the Virgin's tunic on the ramparts and the Normans supposedly fled.
