"I think the most important thing to deal with the army of the Aesini tribe is to be fast!" At Bai Feng's signal, Bazel stood up from his position, and then explained to the generals, including Bai Feng:
"Because when I was leading the army against the Essini tribe army, at that time I had only 7,000 brave men who volunteered to fight, and the attacking Essini tribe army was 30,000 people, and the difference in our strength was too great.
Therefore, I had no choice but to seize the initiative and gain the initiative in the war, and after the first landing of 30,000 troops was completely annihilated, the Aceni tribe, which had no successor, remained at a disadvantage until the end of the war. ”
"Then what do you think are our strengths and weaknesses compared to you back then?" Bazel's concise answer did not satisfy Bai Feng, and he continued to ask Bazel this new question.
Facing Bai Feng's question that was not easy to answer, the calm and steady Bazel thought for a while before he said honestly: "I think that with the current strength of Roman City, compared with us in the past, there are two major advantages and one major disadvantage. ”
"Oh, then you can tell us what these two advantages are, and what kind of disadvantages are the big disadvantages. Glancing at the serious Bazel with a smile, Bai Feng asked him lightly.
Bazel, who was caught up in the memories of the past, didn't notice the change in Bai Feng's face, but Gatus on the side glanced at Bazel who was still unknown with a little worry after discovering Bai Feng's unfathomable smile.
"In fact, the conditions of the city of Rome are much better than those we had when we fought against the Acenian tribe, and the army of more than 20,000 people and the sophisticated weapons and equipment used by the soldiers are the two biggest advantages of the army of the city of Rome.
Compared to the desperate battle of only 7,000 warriors back then, the city of Rome already has the strength to go head-to-head with the Aceni tribe, and if you count the powerful top combat forces of the city of Rome, then the invasion army of the Aceni tribe is actually nothing.
Even this is a war that is not challenging for the city of Rome, winning the war is the natural thing for the city of Rome, how to get the greatest victory with the least casualties as much as possible is the goal that the city of Rome should pursue.
As for the disadvantage, the soldiers of Rome no longer have the courage to fight to the death that we used to do, and although I only had 7,000 soldiers under my command at the beginning, they all attacked the invading Esceni tribe with the intention of death.
Now that the city of Rome is empty of more than 20,000 people, how many of these warriors can fight to the death in battle until the last moment? If the war goes in a direction that is not good for their side, can they really sacrifice their lives to fight to the end?"
A series of two questions made all the generals in the military tent silent, whether it was the commander of the First Legion, Licinius, or the commander of the Cheetah Legion, Gatus, they did not have the confidence to boast that the soldiers under their command would definitely fight to the end.
Especially the commander of the Cheetah Legion, Gatus, his legion was originally the existence with the lowest combat effectiveness among the three legions, and even Licinius, who had the strongest combat effectiveness, was solemn under Bazel's words, how could he dare to talk about his own legion.
"Since you said that it is difficult for our army to fight to the end in battle, then why are you so sure that we can definitely win this war?" As if Chengxin and Bazel couldn't get along, Bai Feng began to embarrass Bazeel again.
Even Yue'er couldn't look at it now, she had heard Bai Feng say something similar to Bazel to herself before, why did he embarrass Bazeel three times when he heard Bazell say this?
Seeing that Yue'er couldn't sit still, Bai Feng shook his head lightly and motioned to Yue'er with his eyes, asking her not to show anything wrong;
At this time, Bazel, who was immersed in the past, also woke up, and he also noticed the strangeness of the atmosphere in the military tent, and after thinking about what he had just said for a while, he understood all the causes and consequences.
"Because if the army of Rome wants to win this war, it doesn't need more than 20,000 soldiers to fight to the death, as long as these soldiers can exert a little force on the battlefield, victory is the prey of Rome City!"
"Reason. This time, Bazel's answer was categorical, and even the ears of the other generals had a hint of deliberate welcome, but Bai Feng still didn't let Bazeel go, and he was still asking relentlessly.
"If the current strength of the city of Rome were to face the Esthenic tribe in its heyday thirteen years ago, then it would be a protracted war, and it would be impossible for the city of Rome to end the war in a short time, but victory would still be in the pocket of the city of Rome.
As long as the Cangluo River is a natural barrier, no matter how strong the Essini tribes on the east bank are, they will not be able to land all their troops on our west bank at once, which means that the city of Rome can always maintain the advantage of troops.
The advantage here is a comprehensive advantage, a comparison including the quality of the army, based on such a military advantage, the city of Rome will definitely occupy the initiative in this war, and the disadvantaged Essini tribe will sooner or later be exhausted and defeated.
This is still based on the strength of the Aceni tribe in its heyday, but it is a pity that the Aceni tribe has already fallen apart eight years ago, and after eight years of internal strife, the Aceni tribe at this time is no longer the Aceni tribe it once was.
If nothing else, it is not the entire Aceni tribe that intends to attack the city of Rome this time, but it should be an independent force in the divided Aceni tribe, and its overall strength is likely to be inferior to the alliance between the city of Rome and the Tasia tribes.
"Okay!" When the generals who were shocked by Bazel's brilliant analysis were still immersed in their imagination, Bai Feng couldn't help but applaud Bazel in his heart, and then Bai Feng solemnly ordered Bazel:
"General Bazel, from now on your Tiger Legion will be the vanguard of our Roman army! Once the enemy's army has crossed the Cangluo River, I hope that your Vanguard Tigers will bring a real surprise to all of us!"
