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

The existence of the tragic dead has allowed for a more rapid exchange of information between the Germanic barbarian tribes, which were originally slow to exchange information; The fall of the Macomani tribe and the large-scale attack on the Mainz tribe were immediately known to the leaders of the other Germanic tribes, and they all took some countermeasures accordingly.

The powerful Trier tribe in the upper Germanic region organized 5,000 Germanic axe soldiers to reinforce the Mainz tribe on the day they received the information; With the 40,000 troops owned by the Trier tribe, it is not a big problem to send 5,000 soldiers to reinforce the Mainz tribe, and the remaining 35,000 troops are enough to defend the Upper Germanic region.

The Batawi tribe in Lower Germania did not have such assistance to the Mainz tribe, after all, the Badawi tribe itself was not strong; Even under the aggressiveness of the British barbarians, the Badawi tribe only expanded their tribe's army to 25,000 people with the strong support of the Trier tribe.

With these 25,000 soldiers still only in a defensive posture, how could the Badawi tribe have the remaining strength to help the Mainz tribe on a large scale? However, the unity between the seven major tribes of the Germanic barbarians still made the Badawi tribe symbolically send 3,000 Germanic warriors, and these 3,000 people can be regarded as the Badawi tribe gritted their teeth and saved.

Except for the 8,000 reinforcements sent by the Trier tribe and the Badawi tribe, the other Germanic tribes had no way to aid the Mainz tribe; Needless to say, the inability of the Macomani tribe to help, who have already perished in name.

And the Dham tribes in the Qadi region, their own wars have only just begun; The Dham tribe occupies the most prosperous and wealthy region of the Germanic land, and its own strength is naturally extremely good and very powerful.

Geographically, the Qadi region was the safest region for the entire Germanic barbarians; For to the east of the region of Kadi is the Gothic region of the Gothic tribe, to the west is the Agrip region of the Mainz tribe, to the north is the Saxon region of the Bodenshom tribe, and to the south is the Macomani region of the Macomani tribe.

Based on the relationship between the major tribes of the Germanic barbarians, the Dahm tribe is protected by the other four tribes in the very middle, and there is almost no need to worry about any enemies who can threaten the safety of the Dahm tribe in a short time; However, the Macomani tribe in the south and the Gothic tribe in the east are not very strong, so the Damu tribe also maintains a strong army.

The 30,000-strong army of the Dam tribe existed not only to protect the safety of the Dam tribe itself, but also to protect the safety of the entire Germanic barbarians; No matter which tribe of the Germanic barbarians is in danger of being invaded, the elite army of the Damm tribe will be the first to arrive and help the tribe fight the invaders.

The reason why the Qadi region occupied by the Damu tribe can become the core area of the entire Germanic barbarian is not only because of the prosperity and wealth of the Qadi region, but also because the Dam tribe has a very lofty position in the hearts of all Germanic barbarians.

It was a virtuous circle, and the abundance of the Darms allowed them to have one of the most well-armed armies of the Germanic barbarians; And the role played by this army makes the Damu tribe more respected and richer, and the more powerful the Damu tribe will promote the further development and growth of this army, which has a powerful Damu tribe and its strong army.

If it weren't for the speed of Caesar's army, the reinforcements of the Damm tribe would soon arrive at the Macomani tribe, and the Macomani tribe would not have even the core settlement of the tribe occupied by Rabinus's legions.

Even if Caesar's army successfully captured the Macomani tribe, the strength of the Damm tribe was not something that Caesar's army could easily shake; The 30,000-strong army of the Damm tribe is not the army of the Mainz tribe, they have better weaponry.

Among the 30,000 troops of the Damu tribe, the Germanic axe men with ordinary combat effectiveness and the pikemen with extremely one-sided combat effectiveness were only 5,000 each; Of the remaining 20,000 troops, there were 10,000 elite Germanic axemen, 5,000 noble cavalry, and the other 5,000 were made up of night raiders and elite archers.

In terms of numbers, the total number of troops of the Damu tribe is roughly the same as that of the Mainz tribe, and there are a full ten thousand fewer warriors than the Trier tribe; However, in terms of quality, the army of the Damm tribe was the most elite of the entire Germanic barbarians.

What's more, the Dam tribe also has an army of Germanic berserkers! Note that the Germanic Berserker and the Germanic Zealot are not the same thing; The Zealot is nothing more than one of the most ordinary units of the Germanic barbarians, and the Berserkers are the most powerful troops of the entire Germanic barbarians!

From the beginning of the Gallic barbarians' invasion war against the Germanic barbarians, there are only a handful of Germanic barbarian tribes with berserkers; Especially after the brutal Seven Years' War, there are only three tribes left of the Germanic barbarians who still have berserkers.

The Trier tribe, which had been resisting the front line of the Gallic barbarians, had a berserker force of five hundred men; The Bodenshom tribe, located in the northernmost part of the Germanic lands, also had a berserker army of three hundred men; And the Damm tribe in the center, their berserker force numbered 800 people, which was the largest berserker force in the entire Germanic barbarians.

It's a pity that such a powerful Damm tribe can't support the battle of the Mainz tribe, and they can only concentrate all their strength to fight against Caesar's army that has already come to the door; As for how long the battle with Caesar's army will last, it can only be seen how long Caesar's army can hold out in the face of the powerful army of the Damm tribe.

While the Dam tribe was actively mobilizing a large army to prepare for battle with the invading Caesar army, the Bodenshom tribe in the Saxon region and the Gothic tribe in the Gothic region also began to mobilize their own tribes' armies to reinforce the Dam tribe; The armies of the Bodenshom and Gothic tribes were not very large, only about 15,000 men.

This is also due to the geographical location, the Saxon region where the Bodenshom tribe is located is surrounded by the sea on three sides, and the only land connection is to connect with the Dahm tribe, so naturally there is no need to maintain a large army; The situation was similar for the Gothic tribes, which were sparsely populated jungles farther east and south, with few enemies.

Of course, there is another important factor that really restricts the development of the military strength of these two tribes, and that is that the area ruled by these two tribes is simply too barren for these two tribes to raise more armies.

Even so, after the members of the Dead Warriors of Sorrow informed them of the current situation of the various tribes of the Germanic barbarians, the Bodenshom tribe and the Goth tribe, which were not threatened by war, each sent an army of 10,000 warriors to reinforce the Dahm tribe!

The 10,000 reinforcements of the Bodenshom tribe are composed of 5,000 Germanic fanatics and 5,000 Germanic axe soldiers, both in terms of weapons and equipment, and the combat effectiveness of the warriors can be called average; But the advantage is that there are enough of them, and the role they can play is definitely not small.

The 10,000 reinforcements of the Gothic tribe are different, the 10,000-person cavalry composed of 5,000 Germanic cavalry and 5,000 Gothic cavalry is definitely the most powerful cavalry combat force in the entire Germanic barbarians; Especially the existence of the five thousand Gothic cavalry, which was the most powerful cavalry of the Germanic barbarians, and its combat effectiveness was far superior to that of the noble cavalry of the Mainz tribe!

Even if reinforcements from the Bodenshom and Gothic tribes are still on their way to reinforce the Dahm tribe, the 30,000 elite troops of the Dahm tribe themselves are not something that Caesar's army can easily deal with; Whether it was right or wrong for the Julius family to divide their forces and attack two of the three most powerful tribes of the Germanic barbarians at the same time was only to wait for the final outcome of the war.

While these six tribes were busy fighting and reinforcing themselves, an active revolt began in the area of Macomani, occupied by the Fifth Legion of Rabinus; The 5,000 troops wiped out on the battlefield were nothing more than the regular army of the Macomani tribe, and there were nearly 100,000 Germanic people scattered throughout the land of the Makomani region!

Although these 100,000 people were not all members of the Macomani tribe, they were all Germanic; No matter what contradictions and struggles they had with each other, it was after all the internal contradictions of the Germanic people, and the invasion of the Julius family had closely united the people of these large and small Germanic barbarian tribes who were originally fighting openly and secretly.

Together with the movement of the warriors of the Mournful Dead, on the tenth day of the occupation of the region of Macomani by Rabinus, twelve rebellions broke out throughout the region of Makomani; Half of Rabinus's Fifth Legion, scattered in the Macomani region, was wiped out almost instantly by the Germanic barbarian warriors who had taken up arms against the invaders.

The smoke-filled area of Macomani is no longer the same area of Macomani that Rabinus had just begun to occupy; The Fifth Legion, which only had half of its strength left, did not dare to go out of the city easily, except for the turtle cowering in the city of Macomani.

The rebels outside the city also quickly launched a siege in the direction of the city of Macomani from all directions; There were twelve rebellious armies, each of which numbered more than five hundred men when it first began to attack the garrison of the House of Julius, but about three or four hundred.

But when the twelve rebels were gathered under the city of Makomani, each of them was no less than two thousand in size; The largest of them all, the rebel army, already has a full 8,000 soldiers! The twelve rebel armies had a total of 35,000 Germanic warriors who took up arms, while Rabinus's Fifth Army had only 3,500 hoplites and a fleet of less than 1,000 men. (To be continued.) )
