Chapter 3019 Using Troops Like Mud
...
"What do you think?" Severus pointed at the Flying Bear Army where Duan Yun was stationed and turned to Alessandro to ask.
Alessandro, who had remained silent until now, calmly replied to Severus's question, "I can fight."
“That means the problem isn’t too serious. Let’s give Camillo and the other youngsters more opportunities. After all, they outnumber the enemy, so they’re bound to recover something.” Seeing Alessandro’s answer, Severus casually shook his head, looked at Perennis with a relaxed expression, and gave his own conclusion.
Perennis glanced at Alessandro, thought for a moment, and then nodded.
Currently, each side has its own strengths and weaknesses, and overall, the situation is still in a stalemate, so the impact is not significant. In this stalemate fighting environment, it is most effective for training personnel.
If they can perform exceptionally well, they can naturally change their current situation and push the battlefield toward victory. But if they can't, they can at least learn more in the current environment.
Pressure is a driving force, and it inspires the desire to improve. As for room for improvement, everyone has plenty of it.
If a legion commander is even slightly at a disadvantage, sending out his elite troops to reshape the balance of power would probably not be a good thing for any legion commander.
They are currently in the lead, and will likely remain so for a long time to come, but this is due to the strength of the nation as a whole, not the strength of the legion commander alone.
If individual legion commanders do not receive sufficient training, and are surrounded at some point, there will be no chance to rescue them, just like the Thirteen Rose Legion.
Although it's hard to admit, the level of a commander's incompetence can largely determine the life or death of a legion, and for the Roman Empire, the Eagle Legion was absolutely a matter of face, a face that had been preserved since ancient times.
Losing a single unit is an extremely shameful thing, requiring the entire country to go all out to rewrite this shameful issue.
Therefore, for the Roman Empire, the current war was not only about annihilating the Parthian Empire, but also about honing the skills of its legion commanders.
Make these legion commanders stronger, more qualified, and more outstanding, strong enough to guard their territory and deal with all kinds of situations.
In addition to making the legion commander stronger, there is also the idea of gaining a better understanding of everyone's abilities and providing individualized instruction and training.
After all, the appointment of the Roman Empire's Eagle Legion was not entirely based on ability. It also involved a lot of recommendations and internal recommendations. As for whether it was compliant or not and whether the ability was strong enough, everyone only had a rough idea.
Therefore, in this large-scale battle, it is also necessary to discover the strengths and weaknesses of each person and their abilities.
Even in such a battle, a partial transfer of power could be completed, thereby making the country and society more stable.
War can obscure many things and change many things, especially for the Roman Empire at this time. A grand war could cover up far too many problems. "There are still too many elite barbarians." Perennis muttered softly, looking at the elite barbarians surrounding Benito, before turning his gaze away.
They conquered many barbarians, including Scythians, Germans, and countless other barbarians. However, conquest was one thing, but it did not remove the barbarians' armed forces, much less deal with the elite among them.
The consequences of forcibly resolving the issue through force are truly unpredictable, including potential hidden dangers and a possible civil war.
So, taking advantage of this foreign war, these elite barbarian forces were also brought out. Ostensibly, they were given the opportunity to become Roman citizens, but in reality, they naturally hoped for as many casualties as possible, especially since the barbarians should die on the battlefield before becoming Roman citizens, dying with corresponding war merits.
It can both eliminate a large number of enemy troops and reduce the logistical pressure on the country, thereby reducing internal hidden dangers. This is the best way to achieve the goal.
However, some things cannot be said, much less told to others; it is enough for only a select few inside the organization to know about this situation.
It can be said that among all the attacking forces, only the troops commanded by Benito were not particularly concerned about casualties, especially the barbarian elites, who needed to be sent to their deaths at the right time. Of course, these troops could also be used as a base to plot against the Parthian army or the Han Empire's army.
Without completely eradicating the barbarians' backbone and shattering their spirit of resistance and passion, the advantages and disadvantages brought about by this incident were exposed at this moment.
The advantage is that the barbarian elite troops have considerable combat power, and they could be used even on the battlefield of the Empire.
The downside is that the barbarians do have elite troops, and these are quite powerful, which can easily cause trouble.
In the current battlefield, many barbarians may not realize this, but once the war ends, the barbarian elites, who will have nothing to do, will definitely realize this problem.
Therefore, Perennis needs to seriously study how to deal with the elite barbarians and find a solution. He can't just turn all the elite barbarians into Roman citizens; the cost would be too high.
"Isn't this great? We can also use the strength of these people to weaken the Han Empire and Parthia, and consolidate the morale of the various legions." Severus looked ahead with a satisfied gaze.
Daring to face the deaths of soldiers and bearing their burdens is also a kind of tempering and test of will. Using these barbarians as nourishment is the best thing ever.
It can be said that the entire Roman Empire, especially the highest-ranking officials, did not regard the Roman barbarians as human beings. This included the barbarian elites. They did not treat them as human beings at all, except for a few who had completed their transformation. Otherwise, they were no different from objects.
Influenced by this mindset, most of the Roman officers easily overcame their inner hurdle and moved forward to take another step forward.
As for bearing the burdens of soldiers' casualties or beliefs, this rarely occurred among Roman legion commanders, including those who were Roman citizens.
After all, sometimes when we get used to a certain way of using something, without careful examination, it's easy to be led astray and become accustomed to the current environment and atmosphere. (End of Chapter)
