Since Nabazani and Assam were able to form an alliance that sought to restore the independence of the Acenian Kingdom, they would naturally be wary of the behemoth of the city of Rome.

The last time he sent troops to intercept Bai Feng, who had come in a hurry and returned secretly, had completely pushed Nabazani and Assam to the opposite side of the city of Rome, and whether the two sides would meet each other or not, this established fact would not change in any way.

Enraged, Bai Feng calmly led more than 20,000 Roman soldiers across the Cangluo River, and the news was soon learned by the scouts sent by Nabazani and Assam, who brought them back to their barracks.

Joshuel led his army of 20,000 men against the armies of Nabazani and Assam, and the Guards, which belonged to Queen Boudicca, quickly grew to 20,000.

On the surface, Nabazani and Assam, with only 20,000 troops, seem to be at an absolute disadvantage, and Queen Boudicca, with 40,000 troops, can eliminate the threat of Nabazani and Assam on her own.

But the situation in the Iceni Kingdom is far more complicated than it seems on the surface, and according to the information that the ghosts of the battlefield continue to send back to Rome, the strength of this alliance formed by Nabazani and Assam should not be underestimated!

The aristocratic system of the barbarian tribes originally strictly adhered to the law of the forest where the strong man is king, and those barbarian warriors who could become the nobles of the Aceni Kingdom had quite good strength in themselves.

The strength mentioned here includes not only their own strong combat strength, but also their appeal to every call, in fact, the army that Nabazani and Assam can now put into battle is far more than the 20,000 people who appear to be in battle.

Although the military strength attribute table of Rome City did not list the additional armies of Nabazani and Assam, the all-pervasive intelligence gathering ability of the battlefield ghosts still allowed Bai Feng to figure out the full military strength of Nabazani and Assam in advance.

Nabazani's First Army and Assam's Second Army maintained their original strength of 10,000 men, and their alliance also had five additional legions, each with about 5,000 men.

Fierce and warlike barbarian warriors are born warriors, even if they have not undergone systematic military training, it does not affect their courage and good fighting on the battlefield;

With 20,000 elite warriors in the establishment, and 25,000 newly formed warriors outside the establishment, the army under the control of Nabazani and Assam has reached 45,000, while the army loyal to Queen Boudicca is only 40,000.

When the two armies were fighting, there was no huge difference in the quality of the two sides, and the quantity was generally the key factor in determining the outcome of the war, and it was not difficult for Nabazani and Assam, who had the advantage in numbers, to defeat the army under the command of Queen Boudicca.

On the one hand, the armies of Nabazani and Assam were supported by the vast majority of the nobles of the Essini Kingdom, and they barely won the hearts of the people of the Essini Kingdom, and on the other hand, the ability of Nabazani and Assam to command the army was indeed stronger than that of Joshuel.

Eggers, Nabazzani, Assam, and Atabaz were all famous generals during the founding of the Essini Kingdom, and generals like Joshuel and Nelson were just generals below these four.

In terms of military ability, Joshuel and Nelson are inferior to the four famous generals; in terms of prestige in the army, Joshuel and Nelson are far from them; if it were not for the fear of the existence of the city of Rome, Nabazani and Assam would have taken action against Joshuel and his army.

Judging from the information obtained by Bai Feng so far, Nabazani and Assam do have an advantage in all aspects, and this situation makes Bai Feng have to speed up the march of the army, trying to rush to the hinterland of the Essini Kingdom before the situation deteriorates further.

Aside from Bai Feng and the army of Rome City, Nabazani and Assam at this time were not as easy as Bai Feng imagined, after all, they did not know that Rome City was already facing a new food problem, and they did not know anything about Rome City's plan to attack the Vitus tribe.

As Bai Feng thought, the main reason why Nabazani and Assam never attacked Joshuael's army was that they were unwilling to face the militarily powerful Roman city, which had defeated Francis twice.

If the 20,000 troops under the command of Joshuel were the thorns in the throat of Nabazani and Assam, then the hundreds of thousands of elite troops in Rome were a sharp sword behind the backs of Nabazani and Assam.

All you need to do is open your mouth to pull out the bones in your throat, and that's something that anyone can do, but it's not easy to get rid of the sword behind your back that threatens your life.

Nabazani and Assam, who did not want to face the military attack of Rome, have been trying to avoid a head-on confrontation with the city of Rome, and even give up their intention to restore the independence of the Essini Kingdom for the time being.

When the spies lurking near Queen Boudicca's camp brought the news of Bai Feng's sudden visit back to the military camps of Nabazani and Assam, they realized the seriousness of the problem and immediately sent a large number of cavalry to intercept Bai Feng as he returned to Rome.

From the moment they made up their minds to send troops to intercept them, Nabazani and Assam already thought that they had embarked on a road of no return, and the failure of the interception made them reluctantly start a rearmament war.

The two wars that broke out between Francis and the city of Rome made a very deep impression on Nabazani and Assam, and there was no need to say anything more about how powerful the army of Rome was, and Nabazani and Assam knew more than anything else in their hearts.

The two men, who had no turning back, had no choice but to act the day after the failure of the interception, and Assam handed over all his 10,000 men to Nabazani, and then he himself led an army of 20,000 to continue the confrontation with Joshuel's army.

Nabazani, who had obtained 10,000 troops of Assam and another 5,000 soldiers, turned around with 25,000 soldiers and advanced twenty miles in the direction of the city of Rome, and then stationed on the spot to defend against a possible attack on the city of Rome.

Passive defense was not the only means taken by Nabazani and Assam, as the nobles who had launched the alliance tried every means to continue recruiting warriors as much as possible, while on the other hand, they sent nobles to negotiate with Queen Boudicca in an attempt to resolve the turmoil internally.

Before the alliance had made these arrangements, the army of more than 20,000 people led by Bai Feng himself had already driven to a place only ten miles away from Nabazani's army, and soon, Bai Feng and Nabazani saw each other again that they did not want to see.
