[29] At the same time de Valence in the south advanced from Cardigan into Meirionnydd. [16] However, his objective was to put down a recalcitrant vassal rather than to begin a war of conquest. His forces spread fire and slaughter through the rough Welsh terrain, killing so many men, Gerald of Wales tells us, that he “left not one that pisseth against a wall.” Gruffydd est alors à même de reprendre durablement le contrôle de son royaume, de le consolider et de se mettre à l'abri des attaques normandes[6].

[27] Edward replaced him with William de Valence, Earl of Pembroke who raided in the south as far as Aberystwyth but failed to engage with a Welsh army. Édouard voit également comme une provocation le projet de mariage entre Llywelyn et Éléonore, la fille de Simon de Montfort, lequel avait été le chef de la révolte des barons anglais contre l'autorité royale sous le règne de Henri III. [8][9] However, sporadic warfare between Llywelyn and some of the Marcher Lords, such as Gilbert de Clare, Roger Mortimer and Humphrey de Bohun continued. [21] Under the supervision of James of Saint George, Edward's master-builder, a series of imposing castles was built, using a distinctive design and the most advanced defensive features of the day, to form a "ring of stone" around north Wales. Ceux-ci remportent un grand succès puisque plusieurs seigneurs gallois supportant mal la suzeraineté de Llywelyn font défection et se joignent aux Anglais. Saltar al contenido principal.
