On 28 July 1227, bishop Otto II was killed together with many of his knights in the Battle of Ane in the province of Drenthe, when they were defeated by the rebellious army of Rudolph van Coevorden. Otto’s successor, Wilbrand, was able to drive Rudolph and his brothers from their fief of Coevorden, but in 1229 their rights were restored, and Rudolph went to war again. Wilbrand's strength turned out to be superior, and the parties agreed upon a ceasefire. Rudolph van Coevorden was invited to come to Hardenberg for negotiations, but upon his arrival he was murdered.
