Original subtitles

it's a bloody rebellion thousands

butchered countryside's torched it's

hell on earth

the rebels and ethnically mixed tribal

people known as Gauls

their champion is the first general to

unite the tribes verson Jetix

his nemesis is one of the most famous

and ruthless generals in ancient history

Julius Caesar

for a hundred years the Romans have

brutally oppressed the Gauls

now it's payback time the stage is set

for one of the greatest military

confrontations in history

a battle of technological wonder that

tests the cunning and resourceful

necedrol

shapes the face of Europe for centuries

to come

and guarantees the future of an empire

it's 52 BC for six years Julius Caesar

has been conducting a brutal campaign

his goal is to conquer the land called

Gaul and turn it into a Roman province

by the time Caesar is given command in

Gaul in 58 BC the Roman Republic had

already expanded into North Africa

Greece Sicily Corsica Cydonia and Spain

but Rome could never entirely subdue its

neighbor to the north gone it had always

been a little tentative about northwards

expansion because the Gauls and the

Romans had a long history 300 year

history of mutual slaughter and

antagonism I mean these people in the

north when they went on invasions were

you know pretty pretty brutal people and

they they sacked Rome in the 3rd century

BC as well so a lot of bad blood but the

Roman Republic grows stronger every day

now leading more than 50,000 Roman

soldiers Julius Caesar fights his way

across Gaul with stunning cruelty Caesar

was sent to goal by the Roman Senate as

a proconsul that is to say to conquer

the the area and turn it into a province

of Rome the interesting thing about this

great general is he had never been in

the military and had absolutely no

experience in combat or command at all

so why then do we regard him as a great

general was a fair question to ask and

the answer is he is the first Roman

general to leave not only his memoirs

but a detailed account of all his

campaigns which of course point to his

brilliance and nothing else

Caesar writes enough about the six year

Gallic war to fill seven books while he

regards himself as a military genius his

successes may be explained by the

quality of his army by the time of the

gala campaigns in Gaul the Roman army

was almost thoroughly professionalized

but prior to 100 BC it had always been a

militia army so he had to raise new

troops every year trained them and then

put them in control of political

generals and they not created problem

but military reforms instituted fifty

years before Caesar comes to power

creates a disciplined army of

professional soldiers

you might have had a quote amateur in

charge of this thing but there were 10

legions of professional soldiers that's

that's one point which counts for

Caesars success the other point I think

is that you can always be a great

general if you're not fighting against

anyone and in the case of the armies of

Gaul they really weren't significant or

maizes Gaul is not a unified nation with

a national army it's a conglomeration of

individual tribal armies who lack

discipline and cohesion the fundamental

problem with Gaul is that I was

essentially an area of 15 to 20 million

people lots of different ethnic groups

they fought one another for generations

and they never developed a sophisticated

military capabilities still conquering

Gaul is more difficult than Caesar

anticipates

it couldn't just defeat one army win a

battle and Gaul was yours

you had to defeat hundreds of little

armies

Cesar faces each new garlic army with

growing ruthlessness

CAES we carried out some horrendous

slaughters as a typical Roman brutality

of making the case that you know you see

the Roman friendship or Roman terror

Ceaser's really was a reign of terror

he destroyed entire villages killed

everyone in them and then he went on to

the next one absolutely brutal and

inevitably over a period of six years

what happened was basically Romans

control end goal was pretty much

established but underneath it all was a

simmering spirit of hatred for the

Romans and spirit of revolt just looking

for a leader to spark it enter verson

Jetix a charismatic Golic general like

caesar he's also on a mission to finally

unite the hundreds of tribes of his

homeland against Caesar

verson Jetix is a worthy adversary to

Caesar as a younger man he trained with

and fought alongside the Roman legion

Merson genrich's was actually a cavalry

man and Caesar's army early in the

Gallic Wars so he knows how the Roman

army worked he knows its strengths he

knows its weaknesses he is the right guy

at the right time to take on Caesar

verson Jett uruk's took it into his head

that perhaps this was the right time

that the goal that probably finally had

it not this tribe or that tribe but

everyone and that if he could provoke a

spark when an attack on the Romans that

was successful what might happen is for

the first time all of the main tribes of

Gaul would assemble together and and

resist Roman rule defeat Caesar and

drive the Romans out and that's what he

had in mind

his plan to provoke Caesar succeeds

vercingetorix marches more than 70,000

soldiers into the Roman town of Orleans

and gives Caesar a taste of his own

medicine and he fell upon it like a lion

upon a rabbit ah and burnt the town and

massacred had murdered everybody the

Gauls

slaughter more than 5000 men women and

children

vercingetorix delivers a clear message

to Caesar

the Gauls will no longer stand for the

Roman generals brutality this was the

spark of revolt there was some signal

event that would galvanize all of Goyal

against the Rome and that's what he

tried to do is you know fairly good

strategic thinker and it worked there

was no turning back for verson Jetix now

the revolution has begun and he and

Caesar are on a collision course

but verson generation has the momentum

he's scoring more victories he has a

massive army behind him and he's using

it well suddenly this guy is unstoppable

despite outnumbering the Romans verson

Jetix knows that his large but fairly

disorganized force will lose a direct

all-out battle against caesar's highly

trained professional army so his

strategy is to strike it Caesars forces

in small bursts of guerrilla style

combat until he inflicts so much damage

the Romans are forced to retreat to

Italy

where´s and jeddaks has a policy just to

keep harassing the Romans keeping them

away from food generally giving Caesar a

headache to further keep the Roman

troops off the balance verse and Jetix

does something that will reverberate

through all of the military history he

convinces the Gauls to torch their own

towns crops and countryside it's a

strategy now known as scorched earth

burn everything burn the towns burn them

Hamlet's burn the fields everything in

other words leave nothing upon which the

Roman army can look and survive in

August of 52 BC after implementing his

scorched earth policy

vercingetorix leads a small Gallic

ambush force against the Romans near

modern-day Dijon

the Gauls favorite weapon is the

broadsword made of iron these heavy

blades are designed to smash down with

brute force the Roman soldier wields a

Gladius 26 inches long two and a half

inches wide the Gladius is made of

razor-sharp steel and is used as a

stabbing weapon after fighting for

several hours at Dijon verson jet uruk's

in true hit-and-run style retreats and

pulls his horse back the Gauls

strategy appears to be successful from

Dijon Caesar begins moving toward the

Italian border verson jetter exchange

for reaching Rome and replenishing his

forces he moves his army down to block

Caesars goal going to Italy okay

it really arrives too late Caesar is

already south of where he comes

so he's behind Caesar he's not in front

of him and he tries to go into the

attack the Romans turn around there's a

skirmish there there's a skirmish then

the Romans break it off at that point

when Christian Jetix does as he says

getting tough to feed the army out here

I'm going to redraw back into my main

supply base alright and hopefully you

know Caesar we're all we're done for the

season Caesar will go south and we'll

finish this next year this proves to be

a colossal mistake calculating that

Caesar will retreat to Rome verson jet

uruk's begins to march his army back to

its base at Alesia a fortified hilltop

city but Caesar isn't going home

he's going after verson Jetix

and what seizure does is instead of

running FanDuel he whirls around on him

kills its rearguard and begin to chase

him back to Alessia as Caesar attacks

the Gallic rearguard first and jet

uruk's and the rest of the Gauls escape

to their small walled city of Alesia

within days all of Caesars 50,000

reinforcements surround the city I mean

they just kept coming and coming a total

of ten Roman legions suddenly surrounded

for some generals

he must have said to himself what the

hell have I gotten myself into here

verse and jet uruk's had great success

leading his guerrilla war against Caesar

but now he's trapped and the small

advantage the Gauls held has completely

evaporated this is caesar's kind of

battle and he's about to conduct one of

the most fantastic siege operations the

ancient world has ever seen

52 BC the city of Alicia the Roman

military commander Julius Caesar and

more than 50,000 Roman soldiers have

trapped 70,000 Gauls and their

revolutionary leader verson Jett uruk's

inside the city Alessi is so important

because it's a big final Cataclysm it's

a last shot

militarily at stopping the Roman control

of all of goal

Alicia is the modern-day city of Elysee

st. reign located in what is now France

the city is about five miles in

circumference likely surrounded by a

small wall about six feet high home to

about 10,000 men women and children

Alicia sits on a small hill some 1500

feet above a valley through the valley

run two small rivers a ring of hills

surround the city it's well protected

giving the Gauls a strong defensive

position nonetheless Cesar decides to

lay siege to Alesia a military campaign

unlike any other in history the siege

works created by by Caesar are just

ingenious and I can't find anyone or any

source to say that the his siege

techniques that he used there had been

used before Caesar's army possesses the

most sophisticated siege technology of

the age they are equipped with a

catapult called Annanagar known as the

wild ass for its kick it's capable of

launching a hundred pound projectile 400

yards the Romans also use the ballista

Latin for stone thrower the ballista

fires LED shot nearly 100 yards each

Roman legion is equipped with 30 of

these but siege means more than just

attacking with powerful high-tech

weapons and Caesar knows that the right

tactical move at Alesia isn't an all-out

garage instead Cesar believes that to

win this battle he shouldn't try to

drive the Gauls out he should starve

them in Cesar decides to build a 10-mile

long wall around elesia to imprison the

Gauls within their own City

what verson Jetix thought would be a

safe haven turns out to be a deathtrap

first Caesars soldiers dig a trench 20

feet deep and 20 feet wide

next they dig another trench 15 feet

wide 8 feet deep that can be flooded

with water then another dry pit and

finally work begins on a wall 12 feet

high

complete with watchtowers every 80 yards

they call it circum fallacious we put up

a wall around the city it's essentially

putting tens of thousands of people in

prison the purpose of that was of course

to make sure that no one in the city

could break out they could get outside

their own walls but only to be trapped

between a killing ground between the

Roman wooden wall and their will that's

the first thing this is not the first

time Caesar has shown himself to be a

master of Technology three years earlier

in 55 BC four hundred thousand Germans

were looking for a new homeland and

crossed the Rhine River to settle in

Gaul

Caesar immediately delivered a brutal

message he sent 50,000 of his troops to

the Rhine River with orders to slaughter

the Germans

what he does next was both horrific

technologically astounding

Caeser foreshadowed his engineering

prowess they will eventually show at

Alessia he built a 400 foot long 40 foot

wide suspension bridge over the rhine

river so that he could chase them back

to germany and hunt them down once

across the river caesar brutally and

mercilessly ravaged the countryside four

hundred thirty thousand people men women

children no survivors in a deliberately

calculated act of political butchery

designed to send a clear message to

another people

brutality aside Caesars spanning of the

Rhine stands as a remarkable engineering

achievement of the ancient world

he built the entire bridge in ten days

it was incredible I mean he built it was

post and beams and cabling and the

reason he built it was to say to the

Germans look the Rhine isn't a barrier

we could come and get you anytime we

want

after the butchery Cesar headed back to

Gaul and immediately destroyed the

bridge

at Alicia Cesar uses the same Roman

technological superiority to trap the

Gauls inside the city the gawak general

verson Jetix watches his Caesars wall

rises up around him

the 12-foot high wall is built partially

from the earth dug out of the trenches

the walls are topped with wooden

ramparts and wooden towers rise every 80

yards on top of all that they put

sharpened sticks kind of like an early

version of barbed wire just in case

someone tries to scale the thing and

except for a couple of areas like places

of natural barriers this wall goes

completely around the city it's a race

against time

once Caesar completes the wall nearly

ten miles in circumference it will be

impenetrable trapping the entire

population of the city of Alesia some

10,000 men women and children as well as

the new tenants the 70,000 strong Golic

fighting force

Vercingetorix does have some beef from

corn stored up at Alessia but it's not

gonna last forever Caesars men could go

and try to steal some or buy some

supplies but that's easier said than

done

don't forget varus and Jetix had burnt a

lot of it during the scorched earth

campaign verson jet uruk's knows that

the winner of this battle will be the

one who is able to stave off starvation

so he decides his only hope is to try to

stop construction of the wall and stop

the Romans from gathering food if he can

outlast Caesar in the city okay

sooner or later the Roman army would

find it very hard to gather supplies and

it too would wither on the vine what he

had to do is he had to keep attacking

the Roman army to prevent it for

foraging from supplies so verson Jetix

resorts to his old tactics hit and run

he sends several thousand of his cavalry

to harass Caesars construction workers

and foragers

vercingetorix gets away with this a few

times but finally during one of these

attacks

Cesar launches a counter-attack we're

not exactly sure how many cavalry Caesar

had but I would imagine about five or

six thousand Roman cavalry and three to

four thousand mercenary cavalry a

skirmish breaks out between Caesars wall

and Alicia the Roman cavalry gained the

advantage and the Gauls retreat but

verson jet uruk's orders alesia's gates

closed to protect the Gauls already

inside very very heavy Gallic losses

guys off their horses trying to

basically claw their way back into the

city verse and jet Oryx has sentenced

his men to death

52 BC the siege of Alesia sees its first

bloodshed a Calvary skirmish has a

deadly end for the Gauls despite winning

the schools Cesar decides to up the ante

in terms of the siege works he orders

more trenches to be dug anti-personnel

devices to be installed and death traps

to be built booby traps with huge

sharpened wooden spikes called chippie

are planted at the bottom of the

trenches

iron barbs called stimuli are spread out

in front of the walls to puncture

soldiers feet and horse hooves flooded

moats were around were there trees

knocked down to create obstacles and

covering it all would be whatever field

guns they had and and arrows archer fire

sling of fire missiles they could

literally she'd fire into his impact

zone after only five weeks the 10 mile

walled equipped with pitfalls obstacles

and anti-personnel devices is nearly

complete the Golic general verson jet

uruk's is forced to take a bold gamble

he sends his entire 15,000 strong

cavalry force to ride across gaul and

recruit help from other gallop tribes

well this seems to be a smart move think

about this for a minute he has had

pretty good success just snipping at

Caesar harassing him not letting him get

anywhere not allowing him to gather food

but he's giving all of that up and he

says no pun intended send in the cavalry

verse and jetter exchanges his tactical

design and allows the Romans in essence

to build a siege works and feed their

own the decision to go for help rather

than continuing to try to disrupt the

foragers and construction workers is a

critical military decision if the

cavalry is caught and the other tribes

don't respond verson jet uruk's and his

army are doomed

now without his cavalry to send forth to

harass the Roman army they can build the

siege works at their leisure which they

do more important than that is they now

can forage freely and what Caesar

understands is clearly what does he say

he orders his commissariat to make sure

you collect a 30-day supply agree still

Caesar knows that if the Gallic cavalry

does come back with reinforcements it

can spell defeat for the Romans to

defend against this Cesar decides to

build another wall about 400 yards away

from the first

Cesar's first wall keeps verson jet

uruk's in his second wall will keep the

reinforcements armies out but it will

also contain 50,000 Roman soldiers who

must camp in between the two walls

outside this wall of circumcision you

construct a second wall called contra

volition latin contra against and this

wall ran 20 miles so you have a wall

inside a wall in a city in the middle

kind of like a looking at from the top

down kind of looking at a layer cake now

with no cavalry to Harris them the

Romans have no difficulty building the

second wall the wall was seamless except

for a small section at the base of Mount

inria near where two small rivers run

through the valley the wall construction

coming to an end everyone starts

realizing that the thing that's going to

win or lose this thing is food Caesar

knows that once the rest of the Gauls

show up it won't be able to send us guys

foraging anymore meanwhile inside the

city fierce Ingenix personally takes

control of the beef and corn rations

around seven weeks into the siege

supplies inside the city are low they

are subsisting on whatever food had been

stored before the siege water for close

to 100,000 women children and garlic

soldiers likely comes from the small

rivers or wells there's a story about

one of verson Jetix astraios saying to

him let's just eat the dead soldiers and

the citizens of the town we could live a

long time like that this would have been

the first example of cannibalism it

won't be the last

think of the Donner Party in our own

history you know the old history books

always call the Gauls barbarians but

they obviously had some humanity

Vercingetorix didn't allow this

verse and jet uruk's knows there are too

many hungry mouths to feed he devises a

plan that he hopes will save the lives

of some of the women and children

what he did is he sent sent them off to

the Roman wall essentially saying look

let these people go there's no point to

this or actually take them in his slaves

Caesar rejects the offer his own men are

on the brink of starvation because the

land around Elisha has been left barren

by verson Jetix is scorched Earth's

strategy he has little sympathy for the

desperate garlic women and children who

must return to Elisha

but verson jet uruk's doesn't want them

back either having gotten rid of this

live number of people that he no longer

had to feed that verse and jeddaks

himself refused to allow them back in

the city walls so that the women and

children live hundreds of women and

children were trapped between the outer

city wall in the inner Roman wall where

they were allowed simply to die of

starvation some 3,000 women and children

are trapped inside the no-man's land

pawns in the struggle of wills between

verse and Jetix and Caesar all these

pathetic soul is just languishing this

kind of limbo they're literally caught

in the middle of this fight

no one wants them

but in this horrible test of wills

verson jet uruk's weakens first finally

the gates to alicia open and the

townspeople re-enter caesar wins the

battle of wills now the garlic leader

vercingetorix doesn't get to transform

his headache into Caesars and Caesar

gets to remind people of just what kind

of man they're dealing with the outlook

for the Gauls is bleak but then three

days later on the horizon a Golic relief

army some 60,000 strong appears

they are led by cominis and old

acquaintances of Caesars

communists had been an ally the Caesar

early on the Gallic wars Barisan Jetix

had actually fought for Caesar also so

it was a real betrayal for Caesar to

have these guys coming against him

communist wastes no time letting Caesar

know he has arrived

for the first time at the siege of

Alesia

Caesar looks like he might be in trouble

60000 garlic soldiers led by a man named

communism have come to the rescue

they're here to help for some Jetix who

is trapped inside the city with tens of

thousands of civilians and soldiers

communists immediately goes on the

offensive

he leads his infantry and attacks the

Roman soldiers stationed on the outside

Gulzar amazingly organized for a bunch

of tribes that hadn't fought together

until recently they had infantry mixed

in with the cavalry and covered the

whole thing with archers and slingers

Caesar has no choice but to launch 5,000

cavalry to defend the wall but they ride

into a hail of arrows

just when it seems the Roman defenses

will collapse Caesar sends in

reinforcements

you

his timing is perfect and the fresh

troops push the Gauls back despite the

incredible difference in numbers

Caesar pushes the Gauls back all the way

to the hills just massacring the archers

who had been supporting the Gallic

cavalry the fight rages from noon until

sunset

the Romy's emerge victorious

the Gauls first assault ends in disgrace

the bow was nearly theirs they had four

times number soldiers and still cannot

defeat Caesar this does not bode well

but verson Jetix is not about to give up

the fight somehow he manages to

coordinate with communists to launch a

nighttime multi-pronged attack against

the Roman positions we don't know a lot

about how much Communists and worsen

genrich's could communicate with each

other maybe they had spies who could

sneak through but in battle I doubt they

could communicate at all it's just chaos

verson Jetix leads a force attempting to

break through the inside wall cominis

and his men attempt to scale the outside

wall

a third Golic force also on the outside

tries to break through the outer wall on

the far side of the city the Gauls are

learning trying different tactics this

time they've got the cover of darkness

on their side and they've got ladders

and wall hooks to scale the walls

unfortunately for the Gauls Caesar still

has the upper hand up in the siege tower

he can easily see exactly what the Gauls

are doing with the high ground

Caesars men easily repelled the Gauls

below

they're launching arrows but also just

this huge supply of stones and sharp

sticks nothing sophisticated but I

wouldn't want someone standing 12 feet

over me throwing stones at my head

you're trying to fill in these ditches

and moats and the whole time people are

throwing deadly debris at you in between

the walls verson Jetix is getting

pummeled on the other side of the city

caesar's siege works are doing their job

the little presence that Caesar planted

the anti-personnel devices are really

paying off here

these guys can't take a step without

falling 10 feet onto a huge spike or

getting a hook caught in their legs

Ceaser's brilliantly planned siege of

the city is proving too much for the

Gauls

calmness is being beaten on the outside

first and Jetta Rex is being beaten on

the inside the anti-personnel devices

are killing Gauls right and left and

they both have this constant rain of

Roman throwing spears and arrows coming

down on them by daybreak all the Gallic

forces both inside and outside the walls

are forced to retreat once again

Caesar is successful it's got to be

driving co- Andres and Jetix crazy they

have three times the army yet they're

spending most of their time filling up

ditches and dying at the hands of the

Romans Caesars like a master chess

player by imprisoning Alessia then

building the second wall to repel the

Gauls from the outside he's neutralized

numbers advantage to Gauls have absolute

genius five more days pass starvation is

taking its toll on the Gauls

desperately the Gauls try to figure out

how to stop the Romans they were already

beaten back twice but they had to do

something the people inside were beyond

being out of food finally the Gauls

discover the weak spot in the Roman

outer wall near the foot of mount RIA

because of the O's River Caesar couldn't

completely connect his outer wall it's a

gap communist hopes to exploit

so what they do is they sneak under

cover of night to that weak spot tucked

between the two hills and they stay

hidden in the woods at noon the next day

they attack

common is's men flood through the

opening in the wall and ravage the Roman

infantry

had another part of the wall a second

Dalek force attempts to break in the

second Golic force begins to overwhelm

the wall the Romans are simply running

out of stuff to throw at them at the

same time Vercingetorix attacks from the

inside

Cesar watches this three-pronged garlic

attack from his siege tower

historians like to debate whether Caesar

was really such a great tactician what

he did at that final battle it was like

conducting an orchestra Cesar decides to

commit 3,600 reinforcements to his

defenses at the gap in the wall he

ordered reinforcements cavalry to come

around from the northeast side to help

protect the weak spot but at the same

time the Gulf sent another 20,000 troops

into the gap in the wall

but you see 20,000 men isn't going to do

your a lot of good when you're trying to

funnel them through essentially a narrow

gap between two rivers while you're

being opposed on both sides by legion

camps and in the front by a ditch in a

wall Cesar watches as the Gaul switched

tactics if they can't go through the

wall they will tear it down by now

they're at the wall and they're just

tearing at these with these mural hooks

they're iron hooks designed for tearing

down the walls of a besieged town

everything's kind of backwards because

of Caesars walls usually it's the

conquering force that's using mural

hooks not the defenders the battle rages

on all fronts

Cesar finally takes matters into his own

hands he personally leads 2400 more men

into battle

he takes command of four cohorts of

intra tree himself puts on his famous

red cloak he always thought it important

that troop should see their commander in

battle and leads these four cohorts

right into the fray the Roman line was

ready to break until Caesar arrived at

the last minute with the reinforcements

there is hacking at Gauls with his

Gladius absolutely butchering

there's a big difference between the

commander saying charge and one saying

follow me boys

Pattin wore a red cloak just because of

Caesar

now that Caesars there the Roman legions

put down all these pillow manned

javelins and things that they were

throwing from a distance and they pick

up their swords and they just charged

the Gauls Caesar has the momentum and

he's going in for the kill

more than two months into the siege of

Alicia Julius Caesar wearing his famous

red cloak leads his men into battle

against the Gauls

and the text say that what was happening

is that the Roman line was ready to

break until Caesar arrived at the last

minute with his four cohorts with the

reinforcements and at the same time you

know increasing Roman morale because

they saw that commander fighting with

them with with the with the red cloak my

evening Caesar has the momentum he

chases the Gauls to their camp cuts them

down like animals

despite the impending defeat verson jet

uruk's fights on

his strategy of uniting the Garlic

tribes to fight against Roman oppression

has failed

verson Jedrek soon realizes he has lost

the defeat sends the message of kind of

despair to the other tribes in the

coalition and after a day or two one by

one as they had done so many times in

the past they've been wander back to

their own tribal lands and even verson

Jetix understands that the game is over

and he's the one who takes the

initiative and opens negotiations with

the Romans Caesar had made a name for

himself by wiping out entire tribes but

uncharacteristically after this battle

he decides to spare the Golic warriors

Caesar was pretty lenient way out of

character for the guy who is famous for

annihilating whole tribes maybe he

sensed that in order to keep insurgents

down he had to change tactics maybe he

even acquired a newfound respect for the

way they had performed in battle but of

course for some Jett uruk's had started

this he had to be made an example

October 2nd 52 BC after almost two

months of bloodshed verson jet uruk's

finally surrenders first and jet uruk's

puts his best armor on and marches

through the gate comes right up to

Caesar and tens of thousands of Romans

behind him you can imagine the scene

here's this guy who had dared to

challenge Caesar coming face to face

with him

a valiant warrior but one who has

committed a basic tactical error

he had a plan not to take Caesar head on

but the skirmish cut his communication

cut his supply lines just harass him at

every turn he held on to that at times

when he could have tried to go in for

the kill but he stayed disciplined then

he suddenly scrapped the whole idea he

sends his best fighters to go get help

help that didn't end up doing much good

it's fascinating

he had hung to the original strategy

right to the point where it was

succeeding and then for whatever reason

changes the strategy and it cost him

dearly while many of the Gauls are freed

verson Jett uruk's is brought to Rome

and executed and as the story goes for

which there's probably not much evidence

that when that and during one of Caesars

triumphs he was he was strangled in put

a full public view more likely he was

simply executed in a Roman dungeon the

Romans were not I mean they had no

problems with public execution but in

this case they were just well to be rid

of what was called a firebrand of the

Gauls the man who afraid that would

light Gaul on fire

Cesar spends the winter extinguishing

the dying embers of the rebellion Rome

will not have to fight the Gauls for

another four hundred years one can

compare Caesar to William Tecumseh

Sherman of the march through Georgia

Fame in 1867 he was given the job of

breaking the resistance of the Indians

in the West he used the exact same

tactics scorched earth Massacre removal

starvation against the Americans that

Caesar had against the Garlic tribes and

with the same results he won the

Americans were settled on reservations

and became America elesia was a great

personal victory for Julius Caesar who

at times was the besieged as well as the

procedure but the outcome of this battle

is more than just dramatic material for

Caesars own writings

Battle of Alessia in the long run was a

benefit of the most beneficial things

that happen to all of Europe because

what it did is it allowed the thorough

romanization of an enormous area from

the Rhine all the way to the Pyrenees

what today we would call Western Europe

was was civilized and organized as a

province of Rome and then became under

the Empire essentially raw Italy in Rome

itself it got to a point where the Gauls

never thought of themselves as anything

except Romans some say that Caesar's

campaign was really a reign of terror

but at Alesia

he used brilliant tactics to defeat a

large Golic army that attacked from two

directions the result was that Caesar

not only destroyed the Gauls he United

the land that would become a significant

part of Western Europe and it all was

made possible Eltham Utley by the

brilliance of a Julius Caesar and the

defeat of verson Jetix at the Battle and

siege of alessio
