- Socrates (famous ancient Greek thinker, philosopher, and educator)

The Rimon tribe itself has always had a shortage of food and grass, and after the 30,000 troops were assembled this time, the warriors who could have been sent out to hunt were arranged in the barracks; As a result, the food problem of the Rimon tribe is more serious.

However, after all, the Rimon tribe is the overlord tribe of the Aquitani region, and its heritage cannot be ignored; In the warehouse of the Rimon tribe, a considerable amount of grain and grass materials are still stored, which is the most important place in the entire Rimon tribe!

The armies of the Gallic barbarians were fundamentally different from the armies of civilized nations; The armies of civilized countries, when there was no outbreak of war, were trained in the barracks where they were stationed, and the armies of the Gallic barbarians themselves were half-soldiers, half-peasants.

The warriors of these Gallic tribes, when war broke out, they would take up arms and become the protagonists of the battle; And when there is no war, they will lay down their arms and go home to hunt or do other things, and also to keep the whole family alive.

With the order of the leaders and elders of the Rimon tribe, more than 20,000 warriors of the Rimon tribe left their homes, took up arms and walked into the camp of the Rimon tribe; Coupled with the thousands of the most elite troops of the Rimon tribe, that is, the standing army in the conventional sense of the word of a civilized country, this constitutes the 30,000 army of the Rimon tribe.

With the background of the Rimon tribe, it is not difficult to feed these 30,000 troops in a short period of time; However, as more and more warriors from other tribes came in with reinforcements, and the number of troops in the camp of the Rimon tribe reached 50,000, the problem of food and grass became particularly prominent.

No matter how rich the Rimon tribe is, it is still the category of the Gallic barbarians, and the grain and grass materials in their warehouses have been accumulated little by little by generations of Rimon tribesmen; If the 50,000 army is allowed to eat and drink happily, it will take a month at most, and the inventory of the Rimon tribe will be exhausted, and the 50,000 troops in the barracks will have to go back to their respective homes to find their own mothers.

In fact, the inventory of the Rimon tribe is the grain and grass materials needed to maintain the army of 30,000 for half a year, and it is also the grain and grass that the Rimon tribe has accumulated to support possible crises in the future; It's just that there has never been a Gallic barbarian tribe who can eat enough every day, and such a thing is too luxurious for the Gallic barbarians.

Even, there are many small tribes whose survival is just on the line of life and death; For such a small tribe, even the tribal leader cannot have enough to eat, and everyone is just struggling desperately between life and death.

After coming to the Rimon tribe this time, while envying the strong strength and heritage of the Rimon tribe, they also started an open-bellied sweep of the food provided by the Rimon tribe; The normal consumption of 30,000 people, plus the rapid consumption of 20,000 people to eat and drink, enough food and grass for 30,000 people for half a year, was consumed in half of it within a month!

Perhaps, for many warriors of small and medium-sized tribes, the month spent in the Rimon tribe is the happiest month of their lives; Being able to eat a full stomach every day is like coming to heaven for people who have been hungry all year round!

It's a pity that their overeating directly made the rulers of the Rimon tribe feel distressed and bleed; The wealth accumulated by the Rimon tribe in the province of thrift has been wasted in vain, and it hurts for Vaktisa to think about it.

If they are allowed to spoil it like this, then it will soon not be a matter of distress or not, but the inventory of the Rimon tribe will also be depleted; Once the most important grain and grass are exhausted, won't the matter of the 50,000-strong army attacking Gaul outside the mountains be directly yellow? Where will the face of the Mongolian tribe go?

Of course, these words cannot be made public; Vaktisza could not say to the warriors of the other tribes who came from afar, "Eat less, our Rimon tribe has limited food, and we cannot let you eat and drink as you please." If such a thing is really done, the Mongolian tribe will not want to dominate the Aquitani region in the future, who can afford such a Rimon tribe?

After thinking about it, Vaktissa and the elders of the Rimon tribe finally decided to immediately mobilize the 50,000 troops in the camp of the Rimon tribe to attack Gaul outside the mountains; Since there is really not enough food, let's start the war in advance, and as for the reinforcements that have not yet arrived, even if it is not, is not 50,000 troops enough to destroy a small Gallic outside the mountains?

In order to stimulate the morale of all the soldiers, and also to let the warriors of other tribes go to the battlefield willingly; Vaktisza made a special announcement to all the soldiers in the barracks: the new masters of Gaul outside the mountains were the Romans from the east, and after they had exterminated the Maasai tribe, they had hoarded a large amount of grain in the Maasai tribe, which was enough food for 100,000 people for a year!

The news of Vaktisza shocked everyone present, even the leaders of the tribes, large and small; How much is enough food for 100,000 people for a year? At the very least, it has to be piled up into a few hills, right? The Gallic barbarians, who had never imagined it, let alone seen so much grain, were completely stunned, and began to salivate.

In addition to announcing this fabricated news, Vaktisza also promised all the Gallic warriors that if everyone worked together to capture Gaul outside the mountains, the Rimon tribe would only need the city of Marseille and half of the grain in Gaul outside the mountains; The remaining half of the grain was divided equally among the warriors of the various tribes, and the rest of Gaul outside the mountains was also left to everyone to plunder at will!

When Vaktisza reaffirmed this generous promise, the camp of the Rimon tribe was instantly plunged into a sea of cheers; In this attack on Gaul outside the mountains, the Rimon tribe is the dominant force, and 30,000 of the 50,000 most elite troops are the Rimon tribe, and the Rimon tribe only needs half of the grain and the city of Marseille, and the rest is for everyone, what is there to dissatisfaction with?

After all, this time the warriors of the other tribes, large and small, came to help the Rimon tribe attack the reinforcements of Gaul outside the mountains; Everyone's biggest hope was to be able to bring some good loot home while eating their stomachs, and everything else was from the Rimon tribe.

No one thought that the Rimon tribe would be so generous, not only letting all the warriors who came to reinforce eat and drink with their bellies open, but also willing to give half of the spoils to everyone to share equally; Just this news and the announcement of the promise, the enthusiasm of all the Gallic warriors was mobilized, and even the warriors of the Rimon tribe showed extremely bloodthirsty eyes!

On the day of the announcement, Vaktisza began to reorganize the 50,000-strong army in the barracks; The whole army of 50,000 was divided into six parts, and all but two armies of 5,000 men were made up of 10,000 men.

The two armies of 5,000 men were the elite division of the Rimon tribe, commanded by Vaktisza himself, and the cavalry unit commanded by the general of the Rimon tribe, Glasobulin; The former consisted of 2,000 elite Gallic warriors and 1,000 cavalry of the Gallic nobility, as well as 2,000 Gallic fanatical warriors, while the latter consisted of 5,000 Gallic cavalry from various tribes.

The remaining four armies were provisionally named the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Army Corps; Each legion consisted of 5,000 warriors from the Rimon tribe and 5,000 warriors from other tribes, with the four commanders being Capulnus, Mutius, Aminos, and Anelin, the first three of whom were all generals of the Rimon tribe, and Anelin being a general from another tribe.

With the absolute strength of the Rimon tribe, even if all four legion commanders were appointed as the generals of the Rimon tribe, it would not be a big deal, and it was impossible for the people of the other tribes to have any opinions; However, in order to better calm the hearts of the people, and to show the generosity of the Rimon tribe, Vaktisza still appointed a warrior who was more famous in the Aquitani region, Anelin, as the commander of the Fourth Legion.

Admittedly, this appointment, which seemed superfluous to many, made countless Gallic barbarian warriors applaud the fairness of Vaktisa; After all, Anelin's reputation for bravery is well known, and the appointment of him as the commander of the legion is also acceptable to everyone.

As for the other five legion commanders, all of them were generals of the Rimon tribe, it was a matter of course for those ordinary Gallic barbarian warriors; Everyone eats and drinks the Rimon tribe, and in the future, they will share the food and wealth promised by the Rimon tribe, and it is reasonable to obey the command of the Rimon tribe.

In fact, the simple and simple way of thinking of the Gallic barbarians is still relatively easy to be deceived; On the same night that the army began to reorganize, in the meeting room of the elders of the Rimon tribe, the conspiracy against the 20,000 Gallic warriors began in earnest.

It is true that the Gallic barbarians believed in force, and it is true that they advocated the use of force to solve problems, but this does not mean that the Gallic barbarians would not use intrigue and trickery; It's just that the intrigues and tricks of the barbarian world are far worse than the intrigues of the civilized world, which is easy to give people the illusion that barbarians can't conspire.

The reason why Vaktisza used fabricated food intelligence to stimulate the warriors of other tribes this time was to pave the way for the conspiracy of the Rimon tribe; As for the promise that Vaktisza later announced, it also needs those tribesmen to survive to the end.

The elders of the Vaktisza and the Rimon tribes, this time recruited the warriors of the large and small tribes of the Aquitani region to attack the Gaul region beyond the mountains; In addition to capturing Gaul outside the mountains, another important purpose was to weaken the strength of all the other tribes in the Aquitani region!

Whether it was the news announced by Vaktisza or the promise made to the public, it was to stimulate the warriors of those tribes to fight more actively; And the commanders of each legion are all the generals of the Rimon tribe, and when the battle breaks out, it will naturally be the warriors of other tribes who rush to the front, and the Rimon tribe is the last fisherman to benefit!
