After these ten cavalry were dispatched, Bai Feng asked Simpson to take his cavalry to help the friendly soldiers of the Tasya Tribal Alliance clean up the battlefield together, and he himself went to the camp of the Tasya Tribal Alliance with Palmer first.
"Antio, from the battle just now, how do you feel about the combat effectiveness of the cavalry of this Eastern Alliance, who is stronger and who is weaker compared to the cavalry under Nelson?" On the way to the camp of the Tasya Tribal Alliance, Bai Feng began to ask Antio about the combat effectiveness of the enemy.
"This, my personal feeling, is that the cavalry of this Coalition should be in no way inferior in combat effectiveness to the cavalry units under General Nelson's command, and although they have performed very poorly under our attack, it is not their true combat effectiveness.
Because of the problems of military uniforms and armaments, they obviously regarded us as their allies, so they did not have any wariness of us at all, so that we were taken by surprise and defeated with heavy losses.
Even so, when I attacked them, judging from the degree of resistance they showed and the individual strength they showed, their strength was certainly not inferior to General Nelson's cavalry, but they also had the disadvantage of the barbarian cavalry, and they were still unorganized. ”
After a little deliberation and an effort to remember how he felt in the battle, Antio told Bai Feng what he thought of the enemy cavalry, which was why Bai Feng liked Licinius and Antio, who never lied to him.
"yes, I see. Antio's opinion on the combat effectiveness of the enemy's cavalry made Bai Feng feel a little worried, just for reconnaissance, more than 2,000 such elite cavalry were dispatched, how powerful is this so-called Eastern Alliance?
Nelson's cavalry was no ordinary cavalry, it was an elite division of the Essini tribe at its peak by their ancestor Plasus, and was even called the King's Cavalry Guard in the Roman City system.
The cavalry of the Eastern Alliance is not inferior to Nelson's cavalry in terms of combat effectiveness, so it is conceivable that their combat effectiveness is strong, and after this time without the natural barrier of the Cangluo River, what should the city of Rome rely on to deal with the enemy army from the Eastern Alliance?
The relationship between the Tassia Tribal Alliance and the Roman City is not just an ordinary alliance, but also a typical life-and-death relationship;
With a mind full of thoughts, Bai Feng and Palmer returned to the camp of the Tasya Tribal Alliance, compared to the last time they came, the residents of the camp were integrated, but the soldiers patrolling back and forth with weapons added a little heaviness to the originally quiet and peaceful camp.
Perhaps the people of the Tasya Tribal Alliance were already aware of the predicament they were facing, and the entire camp was no longer full of hustle and bustle except for the patrol soldiers, and everyone chose to quietly look at the door of their homes.
With Palmer's leadership, Bai Feng and the others did not encounter any patrol interrogation, and they came to the Alliance House in the camp very smoothly;
Anyway, the arrogant barbarians never care about this kind of thing, and everyone doesn't care about these small details, if this happens in the human realm of the civilized world, the scheming people in power will knock over the roof.
After everyone came to this familiar building, Gamilios was discussing things with the other two councilors, and when they looked up and found that Bai Feng was coming, the three people present quickly stood up, especially Gamilios, who had a deep personal relationship with Bai Feng, and said excitedly:
"Brother Bai Feng, you can be regarded as here, in the past seven days, I have sent a full thirty cavalry to Rome City for help, but unfortunately none of them can escape under the blockade of the Eastern Alliance cavalry, if you don't come again, I'm afraid our alliance will really be finished!"
"Brother Gamelios, what the hell is going on, why is this Eastern Alliance attacking you, where did they come from, why have I never heard you mention this Eastern Alliance before?"
Gamilios, whose face was full of haggardness, made Bai Feng also very emotional, he had not come to the Tassia Tribal Alliance for only half a month, how could so many things have happened, Bai Feng is really curious about this sudden appearance of the Eastern Alliance.
"Alas, Brother Bai Feng, you may not believe it, we didn't know what kind of existence this Eastern Alliance was more than ten days ago, until we received a few small tribes that migrated from the north to the south, which attracted the attack of the Eastern Alliance. ”
"A small tribe that migrated from north to south?" Gamelios's explanation made Bai Feng's mind more and more confused, so he could only say this: "In this way, Brother Gamerios, you can tell me everything that has happened recently, and let me sort it out." ”
"Actually, what happened recently is not complicated, as a few years ago, a new power called the Eastern Alliance arose on the north bank of the Cangluo River, formed by four tribes with great ambitions to unify the entire eastern region.
After forming the Eastern Alliance at that time, they frantically expanded outward, and when they encountered weak tribes, they directly annexed them, and slightly stronger tribes invited them to join the Eastern Alliance; after several years of development, the Eastern Alliance became a force composed of eighteen tribes.
When they became stronger, they no longer recruited other tribes into their alliance, but scattered and merged each of the tribes they conquered into the existing eighteen tribes, and it was their brutal rule that was truly unacceptable.
Any tribe conquered by the Eastern Alliance, all adult men and women, would be reduced to their slaves and become the private property of their eighteen tribal warriors, an insult that none of our warriors could accept in the wilderness.
But their great strength brought down all the enemies who dared to resist them, and after completing the conquest of a large area on the north bank of the Cangluo River, they extended their tentacles to the south bank of our Cangluo River and began the conquest of the tribes on the south bank of our Cangluo River.
After seven large and small tribes were wiped out one after another, some of the remaining small tribes moved south to the area of our Tasya Tribal Alliance, so they joined our Tasya Tribal Alliance, and the pursuing Eastern Alliance army began to attack us.
According to the information provided by those small tribes who have taken refuge in us, it is not the main army of the Eastern Alliance that crosses the Cangluo River and expands southward this time, but only an army of 50,000 warriors and 5,000 cavalry, but that is not something we can deal with!"
