The Battle of Trier

There are some reports and evidence to back the claim that a full on battle was fought between the imperial army and the rhine legions. Aurelian captured tetricus, which decisively turned the tide in rome's favor. The only way this last version makes sense is if you believe the rhine legion decided to carry on the fight without a leader. Or you could believe that orelian forced the Rhine legions to fight him as punishment for their transgressions or something. Pick your poison. Either way, tetricus fell into aurelian's hands, and the gallic empire, independent for 14 years now, was dissolved.
