The last desperate struggle and bravery of the Romans shook the Gerpids, just as Aldaric watched as the warriors of his tribe fell under the Romans' javelin fire. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

There was a sudden commotion within the Roman army, and the barbarian mercenaries on the left and right flanks fled, leaving behind the Romans and, led by the barbarian generals, fled towards the outside of the city, and any Roman allies who dared to stand in their way were chopped to pieces. These barbarian mercenaries didn't want to die for the Romans.

Aldaric was stunned by what he saw, but then he laughed out loud with joy, and he stood up, took his shield and sword, and charged with the Epics towards the Roman army.

As a result of the sudden flight of their left and right flanks, the Gerpides outflanked the last Romans from the left and right.

At this time, Amadeus picked up the long sword, although he was no longer as brave as he was in the past, but he was still very brave, and the two Gepid warriors standing in front of him tried to kill Amadeus, whose brows were stained with blood, but Amadeus had been in battle for a long time, how could several young Gepid warriors easily kill him.

He swung his sword, and a gepid cut was made in the neck, blood pouring out and white flesh rolled up. Another Gepid warrior tried to pierce Adimas in the chest with his spear, but Adimas dodged lightly, and at the same time, Amadeus's serpent-like sword pierced the Gaul's lower abdomen.

Amadeus stirred hard, the Ghpid groaned twice, his intestines were crushed, his vitality quickly faded, his body softened, he fell, Adimas was covered with blood and stinky sweat, he felt that there were more and more barbarians, he breathed sharply, exhaling the turbid breath in his body.

A steady stream of Gepids climbed the ladder up the ramparts, and Amadeus' hands and feet ached, exhausted from excessive exertion.

He stabbed to death a Gepidian who had broken into the Roman shield, and the Gepidian covered his wounds and fell weakly, and blood was scattered all over the city, and there were human entrails, intestines, and blood everywhere, and at most corpses lying on the ground, densely packed, like wheat blown down by the wind. One by one, everywhere.

But Amadeus felt more and more strained, his movements were difficult to slow down due to lack of oxygen and extreme fatigue, his heart was beating faster and faster, but he was still fighting, he knew that he could not fall, or his Roman legions would have collapsed, in fact, if it weren't for Amadeus's hard fighting, this Roman legion would have collapsed a long time ago.

By the fifth century, the number of Roman legions was no more than a thousand, and not only the number was greatly reduced, but also the quality.

Ardaric and Amadeus met on the battlefield, and the rest of the barbarians and Romans retreated, each wanting to kill the other, Amadeus roared:

"Rome is civilization! Rome, it's power! I will kill you, and I swear in the name of God and the glory of Rome that you barbarians dare to rebel against the authority of Rome! If you grovel, you may be spared your life when the Roman legions sweep through Gaul! ”

Amadeus was still fantasizing that reinforcements would come, but the pride of Rome made Amadeus still have a proud face and said condescendingly. Although Rome had nothing but the glory of their ancestors.

Ardaric seemed to be enraged by him, and he roared angrily, shouting in a tone that was not weaker than Amadeus.

"If your civilization is for us to grovel to live, then we will show you the pride of savagery!"

Aldaric was so angry that even the leather armor on his body trembled, and his hair seemed to stand on end, like an angry lion, but Amadeus was also a brave lion on the battlefield, although he was old.

Ardaric struck first, he slashed his sword at Amadeus's neck in a rage, Amadeus jumped back with agility, his forehead tilted back slightly, dodging the fatal blow, he instead stabbed the sword at Aldarik, who exposed his thighs, but Ardaric was not weak, he hurriedly raised his shield to resist the blow.

With a bang, the shield was hit hard, which showed the strength of Amadeus.

"Old thing! Is this what you're capable of? ”

Aldaric tried to provoke Amadeus and make him show his flaws, but Amadeus was also a veteran of the battlefield, how could he be easily fooled, but instead sneered:

"Is this the so-called leader of the barbarian warriors? Even an old man like me can't beat me! Ha ha! ”

Amadeus did not speak, but wandered around, looking for the weakness of the old Roman general, and the two sides fought from time to time, and in the end, the young Aldaric could not hold back, after all, he was young and vigorous, and he showed a hole in his chest.

Amadeus's eyes flashed with a fine light, and the long sword stabbed at Aldaric like a swimming snake, Aldaric was instantly shocked, but he couldn't react, he even closed his eyes in a moment of despair, but then there was no stinging sensation, but a scream, and a handful of hot blood splattered on his face.

When he opened his eyes, he felt that this moment would freeze forever, and a Ghpidian stabbed a spear into Amadeus's neck, and the sword stabbed by the old Roman general hung down weakly, and then the sword in his hand fell to the ground with a thud and a crisp sound.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and Ardaric glanced gratefully at the Ghpidian warrior, and without speaking, the Gerpid slammed into it again like a raging boar, and this time the Romans' shield was smashed like tofu.

Seeing that the Romans were about to be defeated, Attila made the drummers blow the trumpet of the charge, and the rest of the barbarians and settled Huns poured onto the walls, and at this time, the Romans could no longer hold out and were drowned in the sea of barbarians.

The screams of women resounded in the city of Worm, and the city was about to be destroyed, and the people were terrified.

But this is not the end of the war, the barbarian soldiers who fled outside the city, those on horseback are not in danger for the time being, they can flee farther away, but they will become bandits, they will sack the villages they were supposed to protect.

But the barbarians who had no horses were to be wiped out, and they fled in scattered and panic, and because of the different opinions of several barbarian generals, they chose to flee in different directions. This also prevented them from being wiped out, but the division of troops made them suffer a catastrophe, and the rest of the Huns and barbarians were not interested in the fleeing barbarians, who only wanted to go to Worm to plunder.
