What i don't understand is how the Britain army fled with more men on the field, and huge numbers of chariots and cavalry.. Why did all the cavalry flee once the Romans pushed farther out? Any general with half a brain would know to encircle the Romans on all flanks, after they committed to chasing down the fleeing British infantry and charging.. No strategy whatsoever was used by the British commander.

​@@casper191985 Likely the Britains fought as a make-shift colation of tribes with several commanders, not one (or at least not one with strong overall authority). When one tribe fled, it suddenly became costly for the other tribes to stay, bearing all the costs of the continued fighting. This is why morale of an army (and striking its weak point) is often vastly more important than numbers. If you can make one part of the army flee, often the entire army will turn and run, as well. Good morale has to also be one of the key factors why Roman legions were so strong.

@@casper191985 The British had next to no experience of fighting battles at all, certainly absolutely none against a trained army Tactical command and control did not exist Their style of fighting would have been more recognised by Homer than Tacitus, zero military discipline and their training and loyalties very mixed The cavalry and chariots were accustomed to "heroic" fast moving skirmish, not the hack and slash of melee & their horses were basically ponies

By building that bridge Caesar sent a clear message to the Germans: "The Rhine is`nt a Barrier,we can come for you anytime we want"

Dude saw his men stranded, surrounded and about to be obliterated, and, unlike many commanders, didn't just take the losses or just send a force of reinforcements, no. Instead, the utter madman rallies as much of his cavalry as he could, and personally leads the charge against the enemy, risking life and safety to rescue the soldiers under his command. If you can back your ambitions with such heroism, you're a pretty good guy in the Romans' book.

Strange thing how Caesar tried twice to invade Britain and destroy the catuvellauni tribe, The second time coming with loads more men , Yet BOTH times Caesar LOST over half his fleet crossing the narrow English channel back to France. Once is bad enough, but twice is ludicrous, nobody would cross a narrow channel in bad weather unless they had no other choice. Obviously Caesar had no other choice than run away from the Celts into a storm and lose more of his own men . To give some idea , the English channel is so narrow people actually swim across it from Dover to Calais.
