34. Historical torrent

Aldaric breathed a long sigh of relief in the water, gurgling bubbles bubbled, he was helped up from the water by Ye Feng, his whole body was covered with water, his hair was wet and draped over his shoulders, his closed eyes opened, and water slid down from the sides of his eyes and eyelashes. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Aldaric exhaled a long breath, and the fresh air instantly filled his lungs, making him feel like he was alive again, his eyes closed, and then opened, and he breathed a long sigh of relief, and said in a pious voice:

"Praise the Immortal Heaven! He gave me a second life!"

Aldaric got up from the water, exchanged pleasantries with Ye Feng for a while, left, and returned to his own tribe.

Ye Feng never thought that he had any talent or wisdom, all he did was to conform to the development of history, and the history of mankind is made up of people. He does not change people, but guides them, like a torrent, leading them to where they want to go, and sometimes, just a new ditch can take history in a new direction.

Ye Feng watched Aldaric leave and returned to his yurt.

Attila's flaming expeditionary force from hell is coming from the sky and rushing to Worm, a new land where Attila will lead the Huns and other barbarians on a long, long-distance journey that will make the poor barbarians feel civilization for the first time and bathe themselves in its blood.

Worm is in front of you, this majestic city, the crystallization of human wisdom and civilization, its sturdiness and height amaze these barbarians, Amadeus, a true Roman, a brave general, he is like a lion on the battlefield. Countless barbarians once fell under his sword, but at the same time, he was also a nameless general!

Today he is ready to fight to the death, his name is as pious as he is, Amadeus, which means to love God in Latin, and today he will die for Rome and will fight for God. A true nobleman, never afraid of death, this is what he often said.

Worm, before the Huns' Burning Legion arrived, heard the news from the Gauls and Ostrogoths who had fled and survived that the Huns' legions were close at hand.

Amadeus can now catch a glimpse of the Hun expeditionary force, densely packed with Huns and barbarians gathered in this town, which is only five or six thousand people, but for the sparsely populated Western Europe, the town is a first-class town, but now it will be put to the greatest test since its birth.

Amadeus drew his sword and prayed earnestly that God would let him defeat his enemies and crush Attila to ashes and let him die in the battle, so that the Hun coalition would be defeated.

"May God bless the Romans, I will not be a deserter, the glory of Rome depends on the Romans!"

Amadeus clasped his Roman-style iron helmet and drew his sword, he said impassionedly, the other Romans were also enthusiastic, but Amadeus didn't notice the whispers and disdainful expressions of several barbarian generals.

The battle was very urgent, without any foreshadowing, the Huns pushed siege towers, ladders and other siege equipment to the city of Worm, because of Ye Feng's hint and the nomadic Huns were mostly cavalry, so they chose to watch the battle and did not participate in the siege. The other Huns and barbarians were happy to see this.

Because if you don't participate in the siege, you can't participate in the feast of raiding, but the high-speed and mobile nomadic Huns have raided enough, they don't want to die because of it, and it is much easier to raid the unguarded villages than in the fierce siege.

The nomadic Huns, by virtue of their high speed, often raided five or six times more efficiently than the infantry, and they were always the first to find the richest fat sheep, so the wealth plundered by the 3,000 nomadic Huns accounted for about 30% of the wealth plundered by the 35,000 expeditionary forces.

But at Ye Feng's suggestion, the chieftains and tribesmen of the nomadic Huns chose to exchange the surplus items for horses and weapons and equipment, and these nomadic Huns basically followed the teachings of Protestantism, and about a dozen fanatical believers appeared. They became believers, they became the backbone of the faith.

Although religion could not have allowed these nomadic Huns to completely abandon the luxurious and corrupt settled life, it still slowed down this process to a certain extent, at least during Ye Feng's lifetime, they would not settle down and become peasants. Religion often has an incredible power.

It can be both crazy and calming.

Under the city of Worm, Attila first sent the Gepids, the bravest barbarians under Attila, thousands of Gepids climbed the ladder like mad bulls who had lost their minds, led by their leader Aldarik.

Instead of sending slaves and civilians to their deaths, as the Mongols did, the Huns let their servants attack first, and the Epicid warriors, after enduring the arrows, stones, and spears of the Roman army, finally climbed the city walls and began hand-to-hand combat with the Roman army.

Aldaric yelled:

"These cowards who only hide behind the walls and shoot arrows, let's teach them a good lesson!"

The Ghpids laughed, the brave Ghpids slammed into the Romans' shield wall, bang, bang, a burst of crashing sounds, although Aldaric rushed to the front to set an example for the Ghpyds, but slowly, he gradually slowed down, lay on the ground, picked up the shield, and blocked the vital points on his body.

Like Ye Feng, this clever leader of the Gepid was also very good at acting, and if he did fight in the fiercest place every time, he would have died long ago.

With a fierce force, the Ghepid defeated the Roman army, and one of the Gripids jumped up, picked up a heavy axe, and smashed a heavy Roman shield covered with iron sheets, and the barbarian soldier with the Roman shield was smashed away with a thud, and a mouthful of blood splattered out.

Roman heavy shields, the current Roman army focused more on defense than on offense, so the previous light assault wooden shield was replaced by a heavy iron-clad shield.

Amadeus shouted in a neutral voice:

"Romans, forward!"

Amadeus drew his sword and joined the battle formation, trying to save the precarious shield wall and phalanx, and his participation really encouraged the Romans, and the shield formation, which was about to be crushed by the Gerpids, was once again stabilized.

The Romans were angry and frantically stabbed the Epics in front of them with their long swords, and several Romans stabbed out five or six swords at the same time, and in an instant, a crazy Epic was stabbed out of more than a dozen large holes in the lower abdomen, chest, arms, thighs and other parts of his body, and his body fell softly, and the other Gapids rushed up again.
