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

The Gallic region beyond the mountains has since ancient times been the dividing line between the Gallic barbarians west of the Alps and the Gallic barbarians east of the Alps; Among the seven traditional Gallic barbarian tribes, the Gallic barbarians east of the Alps are not included, but only the strength of the Gallic barbarians west of the Alps.

Since the fall of Gallic in the mountains, the region outside the mountains has become a border area between the Gallic barbarians and the Julius family; And the Gallic barbarians, who are seriously infighting, do not take this matter very seriously, after all, there are many contradictions between the major Gallic barbarian tribes, and the wars that often break out between them have long beaten their kindred feelings to the clouds.

The only ones that have a relatively friendly relationship may be the Maasai tribe in Gaul outside the mountains and the Narpung Mathius tribe in Narbang Gaul; It's just that the Maasai tribe has fallen before they can hold on to the support of the Mathias tribe.

From the perspective of geographical location, the northern part of Gallic outside the mountains is the Limon tribe, one of the seven major tribes of Gaul, and the western part is the Mathius tribe, one of the seven major tribes of Gaul. One of these two tribes will also be the next target of Karabes's march.

In fact, as early as the moment of the occupation of Gaul outside the mountain, Karabes began to prepare for the next war; Numerous teams of Gauls were sent by Calabis to the region of Aquitani, where the Rimon tribe is located, and the Narpung Gaul, where the Mathius tribe is located, in order to find out the strength of the Gallic barbarians in these two regions.

Carabis had never been troubled by not being able to obtain information about his enemies, for his army was almost entirely made up of Gauls; They were familiar with the other Gallic tribes of the same clan as themselves, and were willing to share the information of these Gallic tribes with Karabes.

This is the character of the Gallic barbarians, who are called barbarians because they have no concept of state and nation at all; In the eyes of the Gallic barbarians, the only one who can represent their own interests is their own tribe, and nothing else can be compared with the interests of their own tribe.

As long as Calabis could give these Gallic barbarian tribes who were willing to follow him enough good and a better life, it would be a good thing for them to attack other Gallic barbarian tribes of their own ancestry.

You must know that the backward social level of production of the Gallic barbarians determined that it was impossible for them to live a subsistence life in the civilized world; The pressure of survival has always filled the different tribes with bloody battles and endless fights, and the hatred between them is also growing.

For the Gallic barbarian armies loyal to Calabes, as long as Calabis could give their tribes a stable life, and let them feed themselves and clothe themselves with warm clothes; Doing your life for Calabes, then, is not a bad thing.

Why did Calabes insist on the massive use of armies made up of Gallic barbarians? Was it simply because the Gallic barbarians were better at dealing with fellow Gallic barbarian tribes? Of course this is not the case, and if this is the case, it would be enough for Karabes to form only one or two legions of Gallic barbarians, and there is no need to use all Gauls as an army.

Carabis is not Oscar, and he doesn't have so many brainwashing methods ahead of his time to control the army; For Carabes, recruiting the people under the rule of the Julius family into the army was simply not enough to keep those armies firmly in his hands.

It was a different story with an army made up of Gallic barbarians, who did not understand what the House of Julius was; They only knew whose army they were and who they were loyal to, and nothing else had to do with these simple Gallic warriors.

Why did the Hannibal family use Gallic mercenaries on a large scale, wasn't it because the combat effectiveness and loyalty of the Gallic mercenaries could be guaranteed? Otherwise, with the shrewdness of the Hannibals, would they have foolishly used unreliable mercenaries to fight?

Don't talk about the Gallic mercenaries at the decisive battle of Zama, the reason why those Gallic and Spanish mercenaries fought back on the battlefield was completely because Hannibal did not treat them as human beings and wantonly sacrificed their lives, and they attacked Hannibal's army for their own survival; In fact, in the final analysis, it was Hannibal who overestimated the will to fight of these mercenaries.

However, these problems do not exist under Calabess; After all, Calabis didn't just hire the warriors of these Gallic barbarians, Calabes also supported their families and tribes, and they naturally wanted to be loyal to Karabes.

With five legions, Calabis was able to defend Gaul beyond the mountains, and then choose one of the tribes of Lemon and Matius as his opponent and start a new war.

As to which legion to choose as the legion to remain in Gaul beyond the mountains, Calabes also had some careful consideration; It is definitely impossible for the First Legion, which has the strongest combat effectiveness, to stay, and the Fifth Legion, as a newly formed legion, has the big killer weapon of the Mastiff Force, so it naturally needs to go out to make contributions.

Of the remaining three legions, which one is left is almost the same; Kadoradu's Second Legion was second only to the First in Combat Strength, Itami's Third Legion was a cavalry legion, and Brigo and Magglo's Fourth Legion was a purely infantry legion.

In order to ensure the absolute safety of Gallic outside the mountain, Calabes finally decided to leave the Second Army, the most effective of the three legions, to garrison Gallic outside the mountain; It can't be helped, who made the safety of Gaul beyond the mountains too important!

With what Karabes knew about his legions, if something happened to the Gallic outside the mountains, the Fourth and Fifth Legions, whose families and tribes were in Gallic outside the mountains, would surely collapse immediately; In order to prevent this from happening, Calabes had to leave the Second Army, the most formidable of them, to garrison Gaul outside the mountains.

Of course, Carabes also believes; As time goes by, sooner or later, the Gallic legions under his command will become his loyal followers, provided that there is time to cultivate them slowly! Before this ultimate goal is achieved, Calabes decided that it is better to be careful, and to be careful in order to sail the ship of ten thousand years!

After deciding on the legion to go out, the next step is to choose which tribe will be the target of this army's attack; Is it the Rimon tribe of the Aquitani region? Or is it the tribe of Mathius in the Narpung Gaul region?

According to the reports of the spies sent out, the Rimon tribe in the Aquitani region began to prepare for war after the Maasai tribe in Gaul outside the mountains had been exterminated; In addition to the Rimon tribe itself, which gathered a Gallic army of more than 30,000 men, the Rimon tribe also recruited 20,000 Gallic warriors from other Gallic barbarian tribes throughout the Aquitani region.

In other words, the present Rimon tribe has assembled a Gallic army of about 50,000 men against the extra-mountain Gaul of Calabes, ready to attack the extra-mountain Gaul region at any time; It's just that the customs of the Gallic barbarians greatly delayed the attack.

According to the traditional customs of the Gallic barbarians, the warriors of other tribes attached to the Rimon tribe who were recruited by the Rimon tribe had to enjoy a bonfire feast for three days and three nights when they arrived at the Rimon tribe, and then go out to fight with the warriors of the Rimon tribe.

Due to the large size of the warriors recruited by the Limon tribe, they came quickly and slowly; Therefore, such a continuous bonfire banquet has been going on for a whole month in the Rimon tribe, and it will take at least half a month to end.

It would be unlucky for the Gallic barbarians to send troops if they did not wait for the end of these bonfires, or if there were warriors who came to meet the requirements for such bonfires; As a result, the plan of the Rimon tribe to send troops has almost evolved into a sleepless bonfire banquet.

Compared with the rebellion of the Rimon tribe, the Mathius tribe of Narbang Gaul was much calmer; After learning that the Maasai tribe in Gaul outside the mountains had been wiped out, the reinforcements that had been prepared by the Mathius tribe returned to the Mathius tribe by the same route.

Now that the Maasai tribe has become a historical term, the Matius tribe also happened to save one thing; Originally, the relationship between the Maasai tribe and the Matthius tribe was not very good, but the relationship between the two tribal leaders was good.

If it weren't for the Maasai tribe promising countless benefits of sending troops to the Mathius tribe, would you really be stupid enough to reinforce the Maasai tribe? How is this possible, the leader of the tribe of Matthias is only one of the rulers of the tribe of Matthius; Without the consent of the Senate of the Mathius tribe, it would have been impossible for him to send troops to the aid of the Maasai tribe by his own decision!

Now that the Maasai tribes have also been exterminated, the so-called reinforcements are meaningless; Could the Mathias tribe still expect the exterminated Maasai tribe to pay the promised terms?

As for the idea of taking the opportunity to attack the Gallic region beyond the mountains, the rulers of the tribe of Matthias did not think of it; The enemy can destroy the Maasai tribe with the same strength as the Mathius tribe so quickly, how can it be an existence that the Mathius tribe can deal with?

In view of this, the army of the tribe of Matthias came and went back in such a mighty way; As for the extermination of the Maasai tribe, it has nothing to do with the Mathias tribe.

When the army of the Mathius tribe returned to Matistus, they canceled the preparations for war, and disbanded the warriors of the Mathius tribe who had been temporarily conscripted; And those large and small tribes attached to the Mathius tribe, the Mathius tribe has not recruited their army at all, and there is nothing else to do.
