I think that he who overcomes his own desires is braver than he who conquers his enemies, because the hardest victory is the victory over the self. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

- Aristotle (one of the great philosophers, scientists, and educators in the ancient history of the world)

After Calabis led the First and Third Legions, as well as the Sixth Legion to the north, in order to obtain information about the Alesian tribe in time, Calabis also had to temporarily have a closer contact with the Tragic Dead.

In fact, Carabess's identity is not a secret to the Tragic Dead, but everyone tacitly did not say it; For the war between the Julius family and the Germanic barbarians, both the Tragic Dead and Calabes have no choice but to participate in it, and there is no possibility of quitting at all.

Whether it was the Tragic Dead or Calabes, it was extremely beneficial for the Augustan family for the two sides to cooperate with each other in such a chaotic situation; Especially when the British barbarians and the Alesian tribes secretly negotiated an attack on the Germanic barbarians, the tacit cooperation between Calabis and the Tragic Dead was even more important.

From the analysis of the top strategic layout of the Augustan family, it is impossible for the Augustan family to sit back and watch the successful expansion of the Julius family into the Germanic land; Otherwise, once the entire Germanic land becomes the territory of the Julius family, the Julius family, who occupy a large amount of continental land, will have a more powerful war potential, which is not a good thing for the Augustus.

No matter how much the Brutus family expanded on the Greek peninsula, the Augustus family would not have a sense of crisis; Because the small territorial size of the Greek Peninsula meant that the forces occupying the Greek Peninsula did not have a strong war potential, with the right strategy, the Augustus family could easily take out all the enemies on the Greek Peninsula.

This is why the tragic dead of the House of Augustus will uncharacteristically participate in this war between the House of Julius and the Germanic barbarians; Under the premise that the strength of the Augustan family could not directly intervene in this war, in order to ensure that the Germanic barbarians would not be conquered by the Julius family, the Augustan family could only adopt this strategy.

Originally, with the strong support of the tragic dead, the Germanic barbarians slowly occupied an absolute advantage in the war; From the rapid support of the Bodenshom and Gothic tribes to the Damm tribes, to the large-scale uprising in the Macomani region, to the reinforcements of the Mainz tribes by the Trier and Badawi tribes, the Tragic Dead have always played a very important role.

Especially in the battle between the Mainz tribe and the Julius family, the tragic dead were directly involved, helping the Mainz tribe to continuously train new troops; Even when the army of the Julius family attacked the city of Mainz, it was Ares who led the warriors of the Dead to help the Germanic barbarians hold the city.

In addition to actively helping their friends of the Germanic barbarians against the invasion of the House of Julius, the Tragic Dead also kept a close eye on other forces connected to the Germanic barbarian territory to prevent them from taking advantage of the war.

The secret alliance between Barenas and Brenus did not hide from the eyes of the tragic dead; This was a real misfortune for the Tragic Dead, as the entry of these two forces into the war made the situation of the Germanic barbarians even more difficult.

With the rapid transmission of information from the Tragic Dead, Arminius of the Damm tribe was the first to get this vital information; After receiving this information, it was impossible for Arminius to lead the main army to reinforce the Badawi and Trier tribes in a short period of time, after all, the war of the Mainz tribe was the center of gravity of the entire Germanic barbarians.

However, Arminius could not have ignored this information from the Dead of Sorrow; As a result, the 10,000 troops of the Bodenshom tribe, who were still on the way, were directly ordered by Arminius to divert to the Badawi tribe to support the Badawi tribe.

Now that the Germanic barbarians could no longer support the Trier and Badawi tribes with more troops, the Tragic Dead put new hope in Karabes; The purpose of Calabes's army north was to attack the Alesian tribes in Greater Gaul.

As long as the Tragic Dead and Carabes cooperate to solve the problem of the Gallic barbarian Alesian tribe, the pressure on the Germanic barbarians will be suddenly reduced by half; This is extremely beneficial to the strategy of the Augustus family, and it is also in line with the requirements of Calabes's execution of the orders of Flavis, which can be regarded as mutually beneficial.

Calabes also agreed with the advice of the Dead of Sorrow, and quickened his march to the Alesian tribes; Calabes had to cooperate with the Tragic Dead as much as possible, after all, that was the existence that represented the core interests of the Augustan family.

Unfortunately, the development of the world is always so unexpected; No one could have imagined that Barenas and Brenus would start a war against the Germanic barbarians immediately after their alliance.

When the army of Calabis had just entered the border between Greater Gaul and Aquitani, the 40,000-strong army of the Alesian tribes, led by its leader, had already invaded the Upper Germanic region and engaged in a fierce battle with the Trier tribes of the Upper Germanic region.

After receiving this information about the tragic dead man, Calabis even let his soldiers march to the core area of the Alesian tribe as quickly as possible; I have to admit that this is the weakest time for the Alesian tribe, as long as Karabes can successfully annihilate the 10,000 newly recruited Gallic warriors left behind by the Alesian tribe with his superior army, then the Alesian tribe will really be finished.

If the rear is lost, Brenus, who led the army to invade the Upper Germanic region at the front, will naturally withdraw his troops from the Upper Germanic region soon; When the time comes, Carabis will lead his army to fight another ambush battle, and this Alesian tribe will be completely wiped out.

In this way, not only did Karabes easily fulfill Flavis' orders, but the crisis of the Trier tribes in the Upper Germanic region was successfully resolved, which was beneficial to all; Helplessly, this time the tragic song of the dead man still could not get his wish.

From the border area between the Aquitani region and Greater Gaul to the city of Alesia, it will take four days at the earliest, and in just four days, the Trier tribe and the Alesian tribe have already fought a great battle of nearly 100,000 people!

The Alesian tribes, with heavy casualties, paid the price of almost total annihilation; And the Trier tribe is also seriously injured, and they can't recover their strength in a short time, and the only one who can get the benefit of the fisherman is Karabes.

When Calabes led his army to the Alesian tribe settlement, the 10,000 Alesian tribe defenders in the city were no match for the First Legion; Even the wooden walls of Alesia City were quickly crushed in several places under the attack of the First Legion's armed forces, and it was impossible to stop the sharp attack of the army of Calabes.

The warriors of the Alesian tribe who tried to assault the equipment of the First Legion paid with their lives under the rain of arrows from the forest hunters; Of the 10,000 new warriors recruited by the Alesian tribe, less than 5,000 chose to serve the Alesian tribe, and the remaining 5,000 became prisoners of Karabes.

After taking the city of Alesia, Brenus, the leader of the Alesian tribes, was still leading the remnants of the failed attack on the Upper Germanic region to retreat; Naturally, Carabes would not wait for Brenus to withdraw to Alesia City with the remnants of the army, and after he occupied Alesia City, he immediately ordered Itami to lead the 7,000 cavalry of the Third Army to attack the remnants of Brenus!

With the 7,000 elite cavalry of the 3rd Army, attacking the 5,000 defeated soldiers who had lost their souls, this was a battle without any suspense at all; In order to prevent Brenus, the leader of the Alesian tribe, from becoming troublesome, Calabis also told Itami to destroy Brenus, and as for those ordinary soldiers, they were willing to surrender and accept all of them, and there was no need to embarrass them.

Two days later, Itami returned to Alesia with the head of Brenus and three thousand Gallic warriors who had surrendered; At this point, the most powerful Alesian tribe of the Gallic barbarians was destroyed in this way, and the result was really embarrassing.

In fact, even Calabes himself did not expect the battle to go so smoothly; In the eyes of Calabes, trying to take the Alesian tribes with only three legions is tantamount to a dream, and Carabis himself has no intention of occupying the Greater Gaul region, he is just preparing to fight a war to transfer the Alesian tribes.

Unexpectedly, Brenus, the leader of the Alesian tribe, would attack the Trier tribe of the Germanic barbarians in such a hurry, and lost a defeat in the upper Germanic region, which gave Karabes an opportunity to take advantage of; This war was the easiest war that Calabes had ever fought, but the results were the richest.

As to whether becoming a neighbor with the Germanic barbarians would cause doubt to Karabes, that is not something that Karabes would have pondered; Carabis believed that the Tragic Dead would reconcile the Germanic barbarians with his own side, after all, he could be the power of the Augustan family, and the Germanic barbarians had an extremely close relationship with the Tragic Dead, so there was no need for a conflict of interest.

Even, after the end of this war between the Julius family and the Germanic barbarians, the Germanic barbarians may become their strongest secret allies; This is Karabes's intuition about the Germanic barbarians, and it is also a judgment based on facts.

The occupation of Alesia does not mean that the Greater Gaul region is the world of Calabes; There are also countless large and small Gallic barbarian tribes densely distributed in various parts of the Greater Gallic region waiting for Karabes to conquer, and that is the problem that Karabes must solve at present.

Flavies' task for Calabis was to attack the Alesian tribes in Greater Gaul, and then the Germanic barbarians; Needless to say, Calabes could have slowed down his occupation of Greater Gaul, and when the war between the Julius family and the Germanic barbarians was over, Carabis would 'go to war' with the Germanic barbarians!
