Julius Caesar (Battles B.C.) 4/4

In 52 BC another, larger revolt erupted in Gaul, led by Vercingetorix. Vercingetorix managed to unite the Gallic tribes and proved an astute commander, defeating Caesar in several engagements, but Caesar's elaborate siege-works at the Battle of Alesia finally forced his surrender.[46] Despite scattered outbreaks of warfare the following year, Gaul was effectively conquered. Plutarch claimed that the army had fought against three million men in the course of the Gallic Wars, of whom 1 million died, and another million were enslaved. 300 tribes were subjugated and 800 cities were destroyed. However, in view of the difficulty in finding accurate counts in the first place, Caesar's propagandistic purposes, and the common gross exaggeration of numbers in ancient texts, the totals of enemy combatants in particular are likely to be too high.

compare caesar to sherman it s really stupid: technical difference level with the enemy they faced was almost noexistent for romans who fought sword to sword with gauls when Sherman with apaches was rifles against bow n arrows c'mon..., probably Geronimo e co. even with the scraps of thechnology they snatch yankees they were technically inferior to Gauls, they forged metal indians not
