In history, the battle of the weak against the strong has always been talked about, and it seems that a statue of Animius is still erected in Mainz, Germany, to commemorate the battle of the Teutoburg Forest. Although the Germanias were still unconnected tribes at that time, there was no German Empire or even the Holy Roman Empire. A proton who was sent to Rome as a child to receive a Romanized education, trusted by the governor of Germania, returns to his hometown under the influence of a series of events. I feel that Rome is good, but it is not my home after all. Although the Black Forest is barbaric, it is not bad if I am the leader.
Rome's three legions were invincible in the field, let alone equal numbers, and adding a few thousand people to the barbarians would not be able to beat them. But the formation and well-trained positional warfare skills are of no use in the narrow forest path. The short-handedness relies on physical strength and courage. When the barbarian warriors in strange clothes rush out of the cover and rush to the Roman warriors in the line of snakes , the result is already obvious.
After that, Rome could only retaliate by crossing the Rhine and marching into Germania, burning, killing, and looting. It was impossible to collect taxes and make money from slaves north of the Rhine. The Germanic tribal warriors had good physique and fierce fighting style, and they could not beat the Roman legions without training. It would be amazing to steal the Roman formations and tactics. And the funny thing is that unlike the Huns in Asia, the iron smelting skills of the barbarians are no less than that of the Romans...
The result of this development is that the Western Roman Empire is not wronged. Because the serious Roman legions are not as powerful as the barbarian mercenary legions, the serious Romans are reluctant to join the army and fight over time.
