Can you please post the complete question.. I believe "his" is incorrect.. "their" was correct usage.

Rome was threatened by Hunnish troops which , led by Attila the Hun, demonstrated their military superiority.
Is the complete sentence, but I wanted to know whether his can be used instead of their if we don't have to about meaning change?

No, we cannot refer to modifier like that.
