In 500 or 501, Godegisel began scheming against his brother Gundobad. He promised his brother-in-law territory and annual tribute for defeating his brother. Clovis was eager to subdue the political threat to his realm and crossed into the Burgundian territory. Gundobad then moved against Clovis and called his brother for reinforcements. The three armies met near [[Dijon]], where both the Franks and Godegisel's forces defeated the dumbfounded Gundobad, who escaped to [[Avignon]]. Clovis pursued him and laid siege to the city. After some months, Clovis was convinced to abandon the siege and settled for an annual tribute from Gundobad.{{sfn|Bachrach|1972|p=9}}
