Duke Conrad the Red and his Frankish troops attack the Hungarians plundering the armies rear at the battle of Lechfeld, kill many, free captives and recover the baggage train.
Rex autem cum intellexisset bellum ex adverso esse et post tergum novissima agmina periclitari, misso duce cum quarta legione captivos eripuit, predam excussit latrocinantiaque hostium agmina proturbavit. Fusis latrocinantibus undique adversariorum agminibus, signis victricibus dux Cuonradus ad regem revertitur. Mirumque in modum, cunctantibus veteranis militibus gloria victoriae assuetis, cum novo milite et fere bellandi ignaro triumphum peregit.
