Having dealt with the Alamanni, Aurelian quickly…
March 272 CE
Having dealt with the Alamanni, Aurelian quickly sets about restoring Roman authority in Europe.
In Pannonia (in present-day central Europe), he moves decisively and defeats the Vandals who, joined by Sarmatians, had crossed the middle course of Danube.
He allows the Vandals to withdraw back across the Danube into Dacia only after asking his troops if they wish to let them so do, and has them leave hostages and supply two thousand horsemen to the Roman cavalry.
(When five hundred of these cavalry break the agreement, they are destroyed.)
