It rained heavily in the middle of the night until dawn the next day, when the soldiers, who had escaped the rain but had accidentally fallen asleep, walked out of the guard room on the city wall and came to the city wall.

At this moment, he froze in place, for he saw the empty and empty field that he had seen at dusk yesterday, which was now darkly crowded with the great army from the north, who had built a large number of tents at a relatively safe distance.

The tents of the army were barely visible, and the heads of the men who came and went were innumerable, and what was even more frightening was the winch trebuchet that the Huns had learned from the Romans, lined up like a wall.

"Look that, look that, the Huns are coming! The Huns are coming! ”

The frightened soldier rushed into the guard room like crazy, waking up all the guards who were still asleep.

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency!"

The panicked officer slammed and pushed open the door of Bishop Ananus, causing Ananus, who was still asleep, to wake up and sit up.

"The Huns, the Huns are coming!"

"How is it possible, it was such a heavy rainstorm yesterday that even God couldn't stop them in their way?" Ananus couldn't help but sigh, but now was not the time to sigh.

When I went out, the streets had already lost order, and the civilians crowded the streets, like flies without a head, at a loss when the catastrophe came.

"Fuck off! Get out of the way and don't get in our way! ”

Their confusion stopped the soldiers' advance, and in order to support the walls, they had to wield clubs and teach the citizens who did not dodge in time.

Suddenly, the whole street was filled with the sound of cries and beatings, and the defenseless could not resist, so they could only bear it in silence.

"Command that all men, even slaves and prisoners, who can take up arms, forgive their sins if they can do their part to resist and survive this battle of guards."

From the road where the soldiers had forced their way all the way north to the northern wall, Ananus watched from afar, only to see that Attila's huge army had begun to slowly appear on the outskirts of the camp, and instead of concentrating all their strength, they had divided up a few thousand men to come to the city of Orleans.

I saw a Hun rider with a black flag on his back riding unhurriedly to the city of Orleans, the walls of Orleans were crowded with defensive soldiers, and the soldiers in the first row were armed with bows and arrows, and their eyes were fixed on this Hun rider swaggering in front of them and getting closer and closer.

"Romans!"

The Hun looked up at Ananus, who was standing on the tower of the city gate, and continued in fluent Latin: "Our king, Attila, now needs to negotiate with you, as you can see, we are so numerous and so overwhelming, that even your gods hide in the clouds of heaven and earth with fearful eyes, give up, Romans, your gods have given up on you, but my king can give you a second chance, give up your rotten and cowardly Augustus. Throw yourself into the arms of Attila my king, and my king will promise you that you will still enjoy the privileges you have now. ”

In the face of the persuasion of the Hun envoys, everyone turned their eyes to Bishop Ananus, and how Ananus chose such a temptation became a topic of common concern to everyone, presumably he is also very entangled now, after all, no one can guarantee how long such a defense war will last.

"Shut up, you barbarian!"

Unexpectedly, Ananus chose to refuse without thinking about it, only to see him pointing at the Huns under the city and roaring angrily: "Put away your hypocritical mercy, God will not agree with your lies and the hypocrisy of your king." I have asked Aetius for help, and soon his army will appear behind you, and then bear the wrath of the Romans, damned barbarians. ”

"Why is it that there are always blind and dangerous decisions that cannot be seen clearly?" The Hun envoy shook his head helplessly, and continued: "Then, Romans, I will bring your words to my king Attila, and I believe that it is time for you to bear the wrath of my king!" ”

With that, the Hun envoy spat violently on the ground, and then rode back towards the attacking Hun army, leaving a cloud of dust in his wake.

Leaving behind the soldiers stationed on the walls of Orleans, they watched Ananus be silent for a long time, and then erupted in thunderous cheers.

The soldiers praised Ananus for his bravery, and even more ridiculed the Huns for their hesitation in battle, but more importantly, they were determined to die, after all, they should have understood that the Huns could not get what they wanted, and the Romans could not hold it.

I saw that the Hun envoy came to the front of Attila's attacking army and said a few words to their front-line commander, and saw the barbarian commander on the front line "brush" and drew his iron sword, pointing directly at Orleans in front of him and roaring loudly!

"Whew! Call! Call! ”

His roar echoed, and the barbarian soldiers behind him kept flapping their shields and making rhythmic sounds to match their battle cries, shaking the eardrums of all the Roman soldiers present.

"Okay, children, they are coming, they are burning and looting, they are overcoming and destroying everything that comes in front of us, we have no way to retreat, and there is nowhere to escape, in this case, it is better to face this fear, and let us feel whether Attila's anger can destroy our walls!" Ananus didn't know where the courage came from, but he raised his right hand and clenched his fist tightly, shouting loudly to the soldiers on the left and right, and the words of encouragement made the soldiers cheer in unison, and everyone's frown was slightly relaxed, but fortunately they were not defeated by the fear spread by Attila.

"Click..."

The trebuchets in the rear of the Huns' formation roared in unison, and huge flying stones arced through the sky towards the walls of Orleans.

"Dangdang..."

Flying stones constantly crash against the fortified walls of Orleans, an ancient city wall made of heavy stones, and the Romans have always been one of their proud symbols, as the thick walls made impossible to shake the siege weapons of the known world.

Even so, the impact of the stones on the walls caused a large amount of debris to sputter. There are also stones that pass through the gap in the middle of the women's wall, and the soldiers standing in it are in the middle.

"Click!"

The stone smashed the soldier's head in an instant, and the splatters of brains and blood stained the face and body of the soldier behind him.

"Steady! Steady! ”

The officers held their hands to the wall and shouted over and over to reassure the soldiers on the left and right.

At this moment, the barbarian archers were seen rushing out of the ranks, and they came within range, raining arrows like a torrent of arrows on the Romans who were crowded on the walls.

All this, just to be able to cover the advance of their siege vehicles.

"Attack! Offensive! ”

The barbarian generals roared loudly with their Germanic iron swords in their hoarse voices, and the army carrying the ladder roared towards the walls of Orleans.
