    He succeeded his uncle Raoul I st in 1015. It continues the war waged by Raoul against the Count William V of Poitiers, and the lord Hugh IV of Lusignan said Le Brun and the chief captain. After mutual victories and defeats, the peace ends up being made on the basis of the marriage of the daughter of Geoffroy II, Aud?arde (Auliarde, Aldiarde), with Hugues IV of Lusignan.

This device is a real threat to the Viscount and his city, and the buildings in the 1030s of Moncontour, Loudun and Mirebeau only strengthened by the encirclement and achieved the areas of the Viscount. In addition, the lords of Parthenay were faithful allies of the Count of Anjou.
