Munuza , hearing of the oppression of Berbers in North Africa , had made a truce with Odo , and detach from Cordovan central rule . Some accounts claim that Odo promised his daughter Lampade to Munuza in a marriage alliance . Odo was busy trying to fend off Charles Martel ' s thrust on the northern fringes of Aquitaine , so preventing the duke from assisting his southern ally . Munuza ' s death immediately preceded Abdul Rahman ' s expedition , which crossed the Pyrenees at their west end , through Navarre and rampaged its way through Gascony with great speed , first ravaging Auch , and moving on all the way to Bordeaux . The city was captured by storm , the commander of the garrison being killed in the battle . The battle . Following the victory at Bordeaux , Abdul Rahman engaged Odo ' s forces on the Garonne River , or possibly at the Dordogne River , in his march northward . Odo was defeated comprehensively and most of his forces were wiped out or ran in disarray , after which the Umayyads looted the rich monasteries of northern Aquitaine before resuming their march towards Tours , a town said to be holding abundant wealth and treasures . Aftermath . This plundering gave Odo enough time to re - organise his Aquitanian troops and according to chronicles notified Charles of the impending danger to the Frankish kingdom . The Frankish leader took notice , accepted Odo ' s formal submission and Odo joined Charles ' s army to form its left wing . The Umayyad armies were finally defeated by forces ( size of the two armies is debated by modern historians ) led by Charles Martel at the Battle of Tours that took place somewhere between Poitiers and Tours on 10 October , 732 ( or 733 according to latest research ) . The farthest reaching political consequences of this defeat were Charles Martel ' s intervention in Aquitaine , the temporary end of Basque - Aquitanian sovereignty and Odo ' s formal submission to Charles , confirmed after the Battle of Tours - Poitiers .
