In 1656, in the rank of sergeant general, he brought four regiments of infantry and two regiments of cavalry to Flanders, recruited by him to serve His Catholic Majesty, and participated in the battle of Saint-Venant.

In 1670 he was granted the title of Knight of the Golden Fleece .

After the conquest of Franche-Comté by the troops of Louis XIV, he sided with the French. In 1674 he commanded a regiment of his own name (Listen regiment), fought under the command of Marshal Turenn at the Battle of Entzheim , near Strasbourg , where he was wounded.

In 1681, after the death of Philippe-Eugene de Gorrevo , Duke de Pont-de-Vaux, who left no heirs, Bofremont initiated the process of inheritance, claiming the rights inherited from his grandmother, Claudine de Vilmul. This lawsuit lasted more than thirty years, already under the Marquis’s heirs.

He made a will on April 5, 1682, and died in September of the same year.

1st wife: Marie de Watteville . At the time of marriage, she misled the future spouse, not reporting that she had already taken a monastic vow. The marriage was annulled.

A son:

• Louis de Beaufremont , seigneur d'Estival. He was recognized as a legitimate child, because his father did not know about the deception of his wife. However, Charles-Louis de Beaufremont, who did not forgive his ex-wife, refused to recognize her son as his main heir, and refused him relatively small possessions, consisting mainly of the lord Estival. For this reason, Louis de Beaufremont “died of sorrow” ^{[1] [2]} , leaving two sons who settled in Hungary and a daughter who married the Transylvanian prince.

2nd wife (contract 04/30/1640): Louise-Francoise de Vienne de Beaufremont , Marquise de Listen, cousin, daughter of Joachen de Beaufremont, Marquise de Listen, and Margherita de Ri de La Palu. Thanks to this marriage, the unification of family possessions was completed.
