In 752 the goth counts of Nimes, Melguelh, Agde and Beziers refused allegiance to the cordobese emir and declared their loyalty to the Frankish Kingdom. The count of Nimes, Ansemund, seems that has some authority over the remaining counts. The goth counts and the franks started to besiege Narbonne that resisted. In 754 a anti frank reaction led by Ermeniard, killed Ansemund, but without success and Radulf was designated new count from the Frankish court
