Chapter 647: The sharpest spear, the strongest shield

Leekinia didn't even know how she came out, she walked like a puppet, swinging step by step as if she had lost her soul.

She didn't love him, and even had some disgust with him, but she wasn't so ruthless yet! Valentinian must have humiliated her, it was already very obvious. Imagine Augustus insulting Augusta in front of his humble servants, something he has never done since the first Augustus.

Shame, how can this not be a shame for the always arrogant Lickinia? She gritted her teeth and tried her best to look like a noble nobleman step by step.

In a hurry, she did everything she could to get out of there, as far away as possible.

Pushing open the door, Yudoria and Oberia were playing under the care of the nanny, and saw that the two of them had no idea what had happened recently, and now they only had toys and everything that could give them pleasure.

"Yudoria, you should go study." Leekinia rubbed her red and swollen eyes, trying to keep her sternness in them. She then instructed Yudoria: "As a member of the Flaviis family, you must show the knowledge and virtues that a noble child should have, and you need to go to your teacher and let him teach you well. ”

Yudoria timidly looked at her mother, who had suddenly become strict, her red eyes stared at her, her tone seemed unmistakable, she didn't know what was going on, she was just frightened, standing still, at a loss.

"Princess, let's go." The old woman beside her hurriedly walked over and bent down to take Yudoria's hand, persuaded Yudoria, and then pulled Yudoria past Lickinia and hurriedly walked out of the door.

"You all get out!" Liquinia scolded the other maids so hard that they did not dare to disobey, and hurriedly bowed and withdrew, leaving only Oberia and Liquinia.

"Mom..."

Oberia was clearly frightened by Liequinia's behavior, and she would not have imagined that her mother suddenly seemed to be a different person.

She stood stunned and looked up at Lickinia, who took two steps forward and hid in front of Oberia.

This child, who was only a few years old, Liquinia slowly reached out and grabbed Oberia's arms, her eyes fixed on the girl.

She was so similar to Valentinian, this damn look always lingered in her heart, making it difficult for Lickinia to control herself.

"Valentinian..."

Liequinia muttered something in her mouth, and before she knew it, she reached out and grabbed Oberia's tiny neck.

"Mom!"

Oberia couldn't understand what Liquinia was doing now, she just felt her mother's hands on her neck the moment her eyes were so cold, and her facial expression was so hideous.

"Oh, oh, oh my God!"

The call brought Liequinia to her senses, and she glanced at her hands, which she retracted as if she had been electrocuted.

"Me, what am I doing here?" Liekinia stared at her hands with wide eyes in surprise, she couldn't believe that she had the urge to kill her own daughter at that moment. Maybe it's just disgust with that face, so hated that I want to kill everything like it with my own hands.

"I'm sorry, I'm very sorry, my daughter!" Liquinia finally couldn't help it, and couldn't cry in front of Oberia, and the young Oberia, who was at a loss, couldn't help crying when she saw her mother crying so miserably, and she couldn't help crying, and the mother and daughter hugged each other and cried, and the maids outside heard it clearly.

Outside the city, Aetius was still doing some daily boring actions to pass the time, until warships appeared on the western sea.

"There are warships, there are warships!" The soldiers who saw the warship hurriedly beckoned to each other and looked towards the western sea, the sails of the warship coming to the wind were agitated with the red Rabelan emblem, and the sharp tip of the warship was like a sharp sword breaking through the water and rushing towards the river bank.

"My lord! My lord! ”

Theres, Litollio, and the other officers came running to wake up Aetius, who had fallen asleep, "Luga, it must be Flavis. Luga! Thereus said to Aetius breathlessly.

As soon as he heard that it was Luga, Aetius instantly came to his senses, and he got up from his bed with a carp, and got into a carriage and galloped all the way around the city of Rome, to a high ground near the coast with a wide view, and looked at the ships that were about to come to the shore.

"It looks like it must be the Second Phalaenopsis Fleet guarding the capital, and they must have come from the west with Luga's army." Littoho said to Aetius: "The situation is very urgent, my lord, we must respond! ”

Terus and the others nodded their heads again and again, and some were even ready to call the heralds and ask the soldiers to prepare for battle.

"Okay, it's finally here! It's finally here! Aetius saw that the ship behaved in a completely different way from the other officers, and his face was full of excitement, as if he had been waiting for Luga from afar.

"Your Excellency." Looking at the fleet in the distance, Thereus seemed to understand something, and he walked up to Aetius and said to Aetius, "We are fully capable of giving Luga's army a head-on attack when they land. Originally, the idea was for Luga to land and defeat him outside Rome in order to deter the recalcitrant defenders in the city. ”

"What?" Aetius looked at Therius with a puzzled expression, "Why fight?" I don't want my soldiers to die so unworthy. ”

Aetius's words left Therius speechless, and he began to understand Aetius more and more, and God knows what was going on in this guy's head.

Seeing only twenty warships in the lead, they did not lay down their boats on the sea to allow the soldiers to land, but plunged straight into the shore, where the soldiers jumped down in turn, and took up their positions in front of Aetius and his army.

There were more than 2,000 of them, just to be able to bring enough time to the follow-up troops.

"It's finally here, it's finally here!" Aetius murmured, a faint smile on his face, and then he turned and got into the carriage, and said to Theris, "Let's go back and wait for him under the city of Rome!" ”

Thereus looked at the Lugar army that was being deployed, and then at Aetius, and he couldn't imagine why Aetius would abandon this brilliant attack.

But an order is an order, and it is impossible to disobey it. Theseus gritted her teeth, but beckoned the soldiers to retreat to the front of the city of Rome, where she waited for Luga's arrival.

Luga landed with the soldiers, but when he saw Aetius leading the soldiers back, he wondered and wondered: Could it be that Aetius had other plans?

After half a day, when the army had finally assembled on the shore, Luga led them on their way towards the city of Rome.

Along the way, walking along the walls of Rome, Luga was surprised to find that the walls were not damaged, which means that Aetius did not attack Rome for so long.

As if he had a heart, what Luga did not want to see was what Aetius did not want to see, and it was in this almost peaceful way that the spear of the empire and the shield of the empire met in front of the former capital of the empire.
