- Heraclitus (a legendary philosopher and a representative of the Efes)

The Gallic lands under Calabes' rule were ostensibly under enemy control, and the Germanic barbarians to the east and the Iberian Peninsula to the west, occupied by the Augustan Empire, were supposed to be enemies of Calabes; After all, Carabes was part of the Ulius Empire, which in turn was an enemy of the Germanic barbarians and the Augustan Empire.

However, this is not the case, Calabis was ostensibly the Gallic governor of the Ulius Empire, but in fact he was a member of the Augustan Empire who was lurking in the Ulius Empire; The tragic dead of the Augustan Empire had an extraordinary relationship with the Germanic barbarians, and Carabis himself led an army to fight alongside the Germanic barbarians, and then secretly aided the Germanic barbarians several times.

This directly led to the fact that the land of Gaul under the rule of Calabes had an extremely stable surrounding environment, the Empire of Julius would not attack Calabes, the Augustan Empire would not attack Calabes, and the Germanic barbarians would not attack Calabes; This means that there are no enemies in the vicinity of Karabes.

Since the real situation is like this, there is no need for Calabes's command to maintain such a large army, and Calabis has always maintained such a large army in order to cooperate with the Augustan Empire to attack the Ulius Empire when necessary; Neither Flavis nor Caesar would have thought that Calabis would be a member of the Augustan Empire.

Calabes's ideas are good, and his practices are understandable, but fate always likes to joke; After unifying the land of Gaul, Calabis went to war for the first time, neither by the Ulius Empire to pretend to attack the Germanic barbarians, nor did he cooperate with the Augustan Empire to attack the Ulius Empire, but actually gathered all the troops in order to deal with the invasion of the British barbarians.

However, this matter can be regarded as a blessing and a curse for Carabes, and if it were not for this invasion of the British barbarians, how could Carabis know that his army has been disarmed to such a point; Although Karabes didn't say much, he knew clearly in his heart the rapid decline in the combat effectiveness of his army.

Undoubtedly, the invading army of the British barbarians directly shattered the seemingly powerful appearance of the army under the command of Carabes, and also completely woke up Carabes, and shifted Carabes's attention from the endless government affairs to military affairs again; Naturally, Karabes will not sit idly by and watch his army continue to decline, and he will use the best way to retrace the elite army under his command.

As for the army of the British barbarians, in order to thank them for reminding themselves in time at such a critical moment, Carabis will help the British barbarians completely get rid of the backward barbarian life, and let them stride towards the civilized world; Before that, Carabis has to deal with all the British barbarian armies that invaded Belgium and make them pay for their actions!

Frankly, Carabis was also shocked when he suddenly discovered the disarmament of his various legions; For a long time, Carabes believed that the army under his command was trustworthy in terms of combat effectiveness, and if it continued to develop like this, it would really be a tragedy for the army under the command of Calabes when the Ulius Empire and the Augustus Empire went to war.

To be able to discover the decadence of his army at such a time in advance, and to have enough time to regain the combat effectiveness of the various legions, is not necessarily a bad thing for Karabes; In addition, the existence of the British barbarians can be regarded as allowing Karabes to find a natural training object, otherwise how could Karabes improve the combat effectiveness of each legion.

In order to verify whether the combat effectiveness of the First and Second Army Corps and the Third Army had declined significantly, the first batch of troops in Calabes's counterattack on the Belgian region was the 43,000-strong army composed of these three corps; In addition to these three legions, the 4th to 8th legions were to encircle the Belgian region on the periphery and prevent the expansion of the British barbarian army into other areas.

This was only a precautionary measure taken by Calabes, and according to the exact information provided by the Tragic Dead, the invading army of the British barbarians was formed by the union of the four great tribes of the British barbarians; They still acted together in the attack on the armies of Aram and Rasini, but the abundance of the Belgian region soon turned them into four armies operating separately.

Carabis naturally knew that the current British barbarian army was busy plundering in Belgium, but in order to avoid the rapid development of the area also being harassed by the British barbarian army, Carabis still cautiously let these five legions plug two gaps.

After the deployment of the army, Carabess personally led the mighty three legions from the southeast of the Belgian region into the Belgian region; At this time, it was the 15,000 troops belonging to the London tribe in the British barbarian army that were plundering in the southeast of the Belgian region, and this 15,000 army was also the most elite army of the entire British barbarian army.

The combat effectiveness of the First Legion Calabes is still relatively reassuring, especially the five thousand forest hunters and five thousand Germanic warriors in the First Legion, which are definitely the most elite combat units in all the armies under Calabes; As for the 5,000 hoplites, the expanded hoplites will be difficult to regain their former majesty in frontal combat, but they can be regarded as top-level combat effectiveness.

The 15,000 army of the London tribe included 5,000 chariot troops and 3,000 cavalry, and the remaining 7,000 infantry were also relatively elite British barbarian warriors; And Karabes used to meet this enemy army with 10,000 elite infantry under the command of Cadoradu and 10,000 elite cavalry under the command of Itami, and Karabes personally led the soldiers of the First Army to press the formation.

The British barbarian soldiers, who were still frantically plundering in a town, immediately stopped plundering under the orders of their commander after discovering the presence of a large enemy army outside the city; The British barbarian soldiers, laden with gold, silver, jewels, and all sorts of goods, slaughtered the armies of Kadoradu and Itami with the wealth they had plundered.

The infantry under the command of Cadoradu was met by 7,000 infantry of the British barbarians, and the chariot troops and cavalry of the British barbarians were slaughtered against Itami's cavalry; Itami's cavalry had seen the power of the British chariots when they had annihilated the Balenus army, and they would not show any timidity in the face of the British barbarians' chariot troops.

However, in order to avoid casualties among their cavalry as much as possible, and to minimize the lethality of British chariot troops; As soon as the British barbarian chariot troops and cavalry arrived outside the city, Itami immediately launched a charge, and in the face of the massive charge of the Itami cavalry, the British barbarian chariot troops and cavalry, who despised the army under Calabes, met them at such a flat speed!

As it turned out, Kadoradu's Second Army and Itami's Third Army still maintained strong combat effectiveness; In particular, the Second Legion of the Cadoradu, from the beginning of the engagement, had been pressing the infantry of the British barbarians, and did not even give the enemy a chance to fight back.

Itami's Third Legion was inferior to the British barbarians' chariot units in terms of combat effectiveness, but under the fierce attack of the cavalry of the Third Legion, the British barbarians' chariot troops still lost the battle; In fact, it's not just the cavalry of the Third Legion that you are elite enough, but more importantly, the charioteers of the British barbarians have harmed themselves.

When Itami led the cavalry into the British chariot troops, which were not fast, he found that the reason why the British barbarian chariot troops were not fast was not only because they did not have time to speed up, but also because their chariots were full of plundered gold and silver treasures; In order to prevent these gold and silver treasures from falling from the chariot, they did not dare to increase the speed of the chariot at all.

the hard work of the Second and Third Corps, coupled with the encirclement of the First Corps on all sides; In the end, none of the 15,000 British barbarian army escaped, and less than half of the British barbarian soldiers were actually killed on the battlefield, and the rest became prisoners of Calabes, dragged down by the gold, silver and jewelry.

For these British barbarian captives, who had almost destroyed the Belgian region, Carabes would not have left them to waste food at all; In order to alleviate the anger of the people, Calabis directly handed over the unarmed prisoners to the people of the town.

After destroying the 15,000-strong army of the London tribe, Carabes led an attack on the Yorkist tribe army in the northeastern part of Belgium; This time, it was not the soldiers of the Second and Third Legions who acted as the main force, but the soldiers of the First Legion to prove their combat effectiveness, and the result was naturally a complete victory for the army of Karabes.

After destroying two invading armies of the British barbarians in succession, Carabis led the army to reoccupy Samarobriva; Carabis then left the Second and Third Legions in place at Samarobria, and he himself led the soldiers of the First Army to the southwest and northwest of Belgium, where there were two armies of the British barbarians.

Four days later, Carabis personally commanded the Fourth and Fifth Legions, and with the cooperation of the First Legion, they annihilated the British barbarian Diwa tribe; Nine days later, Carabis commanded the Sixth Legion, the Seventh Legion and the Eighth Legion, and with the cooperation of the First Legion, they completely annihilated the British barbarian army of the Tara tribe, so that the British barbarian invasion army was completely annihilated!
