The blood spilled red the green grass beneath his feet, and the Hun lieutenant was forever fixed with his horse until his death because of a long crossbow arrow.

"Romans!" Attila looked at the gatehouse that had fired a huge and deadly bolt, where the soldiers were reloading the ballista.

"They chose war!" Attila shouted at the Hun army around him, "Then let them feel our wrath and move forward!" Flatten them! ”

The Hun cavalry was already ready to move, they raised their wooden bows and other weapons in their hands and roared loudly, and the horses under their crotches neighed, they could not wait for the war.

"It's over! Finished! ”

Areobinders' legs were weak, and he fell to his knees, his face was pale, like a hysterical frightened old man, and the golden crown on his head could not bring him back to his senses.

"He's always been so timid and scared." Anlasis looked down at Areobindes and said to Luga, "He has always been so cautious, so cautious that he behaves cowardly everywhere, but this has allowed him to get a good position and keep him in this position. ”

"Be careful to sail the 10,000-year-old ship, but use it in the wrong place, after all, the Huns are not as reasonable as the Romans!" Luga shook his head at Areobindes and looked back beyond the walls, where the Huns began to ride their horses.

"Ready! Get ready! The archers roared loudly, and they placed their quivers on the walls, and then drew their arrows and drew their bows and arrows, and the cavalry in front of them drew closer and faster.

"Whew-"

A long horn was heard, and the sound of the falling horn was instantly drowned out by the roar of the Hun cavalry, and their cavalry was seen converging all the way and rushing sideways towards the walls of Thessaloniki, where Luga was located.

"Shoot them! Shoot them! ”

The commanding officer of the archers shouted loudly, and the archers immediately fired arrows at the rushing Hun cavalry. For a time, an overwhelming number of arrows fell from the sky, constantly falling in the ranks of the Huns' cavalry, and cavalry continued to fall to the ground and then die under the hooves of the horses behind.

These casualties could not stop the Hun cavalry, who, under the orders of the Hun officers, simultaneously aimed their bows and arrows at the walls of Thessaloniki in front of them.

"Click......"

Only the deafening sound of bowstring bullets was heard, and the arrows fired by the Hun cavalry were overwhelming, which made the archers standing on the city wall instantly dumbfounded, because the arrows blocked the sun in the sky, and the arrows that kept falling kept passing over the shoulders and heads of the soldiers, and some of the unlucky ghosts fell directly to the ground.

"Don't stop, don't stop, fight back! Counterattack! The Roman commander shouted orders to the archers hiding behind the walls, forcing them to withstand the waves of arrows and raise their heads to return fire at the Hun cavalry in front of them.

However, the Roman archers who stood up straight drew their arrows and prepared to draw their bows and arrows, but they were indeed greeted by another overwhelming array of arrows, and countless people were hit by arrows, and for a time the walls were filled with the wails of Roman archers and caused chaos, making it difficult for the archers to resist for a while.

The soldiers who carried the wounded and the corpses braved arrows to carry the wounded soldiers off the walls one by one, and even so, Roman archers still fell from the walls under the arrows of the Huns.

"Defense! Defense! Defense! ”

At Luga's loud command, the shield-bearing soldiers ran up the walls, and they set their shields on the walls to fend off the endless stream of arrows from the Hun cavalry.

"Attila..."The officer next to Attila called Attila's name, Attila turned his head and he could understand what his subordinates meant, only to see him nod slightly, and the officer immediately turned around and shouted at the trebuchet behind him: "Attack!" Offensive! ”

"Dangdang..."

The huge wooden "arms" of the trebuchet were slowly pulled down, and the machine-makers operated the machines and pushed the stones onto the trebuchet, then wrapped in straw ropes and oil, and then the machine-makers set the stones on fire and fired them violently at the sound of a command.

Like meteorites falling from the sky, flaming stones fell from the sky, streaking black trails in mid-air. Suddenly, it seemed as if the whole world fell silent, and everyone within the city walls raised their heads and looked up at these dozens of burning stones flying towards them.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! Luga reacted in advance, but by the time he shouted to the ground, it was too late, and a stone grazed the city wall, knocking away a dozen Roman soldiers standing on the wall in an instant.

Under the roar, the broken stones and the stumps of the soldiers who were thrown out fell to the ground like falling leaves, turning into a pool of blood, and more stones fell on the defenses within the city walls, and the rumbling sound was endless, shaking the hearts of every soldier all the time.

The scorpion crossbows on the city gate tower did not stop for a moment, and their range was far less than that of trebuchets, but in the face of the Hun cavalry close at hand, the soldiers manipulated the scorpion crossbow to continuously shoot at the Huns below, and the huge crossbow arrows continued to hit the galloping Hun horses like black light, so that they kept having cavalry fall. But their proud riding and shooting were of no use in front of the solid walls.

Attila saw that his firepower had overwhelmed the archers on the walls of Thessaloniki, and thought that the time was ripe, only to see him wave his hands and go straight forward.

"Infantry! Offensive! Infantry! Offensive! ”

At noon's command, the huge army began to move at noon, and under the cover of the cavalry's rain of arrows and trebuchets, they swooped down on the walls of Thessaloniki with siege cones and ladders.

"Ballista! The ballistas are aimed at the infantry, yes, it's their siege cones, shoot! Shoot! ”

Because he wanted to block the Hun infantry, Andrew also slapped the soldiers who controlled the scorpion crossbow, and instead of gambling on luck to shoot the cavalry, it was better to use the excellent penetration of his crossbow arrows. Let the Hun infantry fall one by one, and finally what they did made Attila bored, and he more than once noticed the scorpion crossbows of the gatehouse where his soldiers were constantly hunting, and immediately ordered the soldiers to concentrate the fire of the trebuchet on the two gatehouses to destroy them completely.

"Click......"

There was a sound of trebuchets firing, and I saw dozens of flints flying into the sky coalescing in the sky and smashing down on our towers.

"Hidden! Take cover! "The officers ruled their own soldiers, and they really showed helplessness against the Hun soldiers who were getting closer and closer.
