Chapter 609: Barbarian Invasion 1

The barbarians, who were thousands, seemed to have listened to Luga's words, and in any case, the warm bread and soft cakes that had been plundered were always better than the black bread of the moment.

"Luga, are you, really, like this, to let them invade with impunity?" Andrew pointed to the distant backs of a large number of barbarians.

Although he knew that this was only the first warning to Aetius and Theodoric, such a blatant release of barbarians was a great threat to the territory that had been regained with great difficulty.

"It's a last resort, Andrew!" Lu Jia's eyes were deep and his expression was blank, "If they are left behind, then it will be us who will perish, and only by dividing the strength of this group of barbarians can we have a chance to survive." ”

It was bound to be a bloody storm, and Andrew knew from Luga's words that this forbearance war would eventually happen!

On the other hand, Luga, now it seems that because of the collapse of the aid talks, he has already expected this war, so he no longer chooses to stand alone, but pushes this large group of barbarians on the heads of Aetius and Theodoric, so that they can more deeply appreciate the power of the barbarian invasion.

"Luga, you must know that there are consequences for making such a decision..."

"I know!" Luga directly interrupted Andrew's suggestion, and in turn he looked at Andrew, his eyes full of doubts, "Andrew, do you hesitate like this every time you encounter something you think is a big thing?" ”

"Oh my God, Luga, it's like the sky above you." Andrew's eyes widened and he described to Luga in a vivid voice, "If you let them know that this is the barbarians we have released, then they can say that we are treason at any time and then raise an army against us!" ”

"Don't worry at all, Andrew." Luga still looked unfazed, "I've already figured it out, so don't worry about these meaningless things." ”

"But, Luga!" Andrew wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Luga, who didn't want to listen to any frustrating words, as it would affect his luck.

At this time in Ludinand, Aetius learned that the watchtower ahead had reported that the barbarians had surrounded Agrippena, and he did not know why he was coming south against him. This is not a good thing, such news only confirms that Luga has failed in defending against the barbarians!

"This useless fellow!" Aetius cursed secretly, he had long been tired of this guy who could always call "good luck", but in any case, the reality made him have to return to the military map.

The long war was not without its benefits, that is, in the constant march and fighting, he trained a young officer, which would be a strong guarantee for his army to continue to fight in the future.

In Aetius's own words, these people were slightly better than Lito, who had followed him but always lost battles.

"Soldier grown, invading barbarians have approached our lines." Therius walked up to Aetius with a piece of parchment.

I forgot to introduce that Thereus is the newly promoted young general of Aetius, and the current commander of the Eighth Brothers-in-Arms Legion, who is only over thirty years old, and most importantly, he is the son of Remitius, a member of the Senate.

Since he was the son of a political ally, and won successive victories in the turmoil in the pacification of Ludug Gaul and other places, he was naturally valued by Aetius and became a legion commander.

The Eighth Legion of Comrades and the Fourteenth Twin Legion have always been the two most proud legions of Aetius, which can be said to be his faΓ§ade.

At this moment, the 14th Twin Legion was stationed in Ludinand, and the 8th Legion of Comrades was defending against the invading barbarians in the border area with Belgian Gaul.

"This time it's not the same as before." Aetius put down the parchment, his brow was like a lock, the lock was tightly fastened and could not be loosened, "Originally, the scale of the barbarians was not large, the largest group was only more than a thousand people, but now, the number of these barbarians is tens of thousands, and they are constantly expanding along the way, and other barbarian tribes are constantly joining them. ”

"It's a super legion." Pointing to the north of Ludinand, Thereus said to Aetius: "Captain soldier, now we must start to meet the enemy, otherwise, we will mobilize the Eighth Army to return to the defense and set up a defensive line in the north of Ludinand. Kill and wound this army of barbarians as much as possible. ”

"No, no, no, don't worry!" Aetius waved his hand at Therius, "Although these barbarians are large and numerous, they have a large number of families behind them, and less than half of the people who can actually fight, so we don't need to worry so much." ”

After saying that, Aetius pointed to the defense line in the northern part of Ludug Gaul and said to Theris: "I will press the Fourteenth Twin Legion and cooperate with your legion, as long as I follow the defense line and lead this super legion to Diodoric's territory!" At the mention of Theodoric, Aetius sneered and said slowly: "He keeps saying that his army is attacking the Suebi in the south, so I will see where this guy draws his army from to resist the greeting gift I gave him, this ignorant barbarian!" ”

At this time in Budigra, Theodoric I was sitting in a luxurious villa on the coast. The Visgoth king, who had just finished crying, was playing with his golden crown and tasting the treasures of the local aristocracy.

"If Flavies. If Luga does not have enough food and gold to appease the barbarians, he will surely be wrathed by the barbarians. Theodoric's son, Torrismon, said to his father, "It seems that this time the Romans will be in big trouble, after all, I heard that Luga has not been able to restrain the barbarian tribes and make them form a coalition army." ”

Hearing the word coalition, Theodoric could not help laughing, and reminded Torrismon: "Remember, son, this is only a matter for their Romans, and it has nothing to do with us!" Aetius, in particular, faced Flavis. Luga's request to solve it himself and keep asking me if he wanted me to take part of the responsibility, I can only tell him that there is no door! Now these people are God's messengers, just in time to weaken Aetius and relieve us of the pressure! ”

"Father!" Torrismon said worriedly, "What should we do if this army of barbarians falls into our territory?" ”

"How is this possible?" Theodoric snorted coldly and reprimanded Torrismon: "I thought you would be very clever, my son, there are still many Roman cities between us and this group of Germanic forces, such as Rennes and Trier, these are all the jurisdictions of Aetius, he can't avoid this invasion, he can only face it head-on." ”

Speaking of this, Theodoric couldn't help but laugh. This puzzled his son, Torrismon, and asked, "Father, what are you laughing at?" ”

"I said, this Flavis. Although Luga seems to be arrogant and unreasonable, he is also a clever bastard, you look at him, he can't get food and gold, so he lets the barbarians go south, saying that he can't resist me and I don't believe it, this is to set up Aetius, so that Aetius has to deal with it! ”
