Question


Who do you consider was the finest army ever. now or in history.?
I think Caesar Roman army, followed by Alexandra the great army, and surprising to all, The world war German army, it took on to many, What do you think?


Answer


OMG why does nobody remeber Hannibalson of hamilcar in my opinion he was easily the greatest general in history!Why? ok first lemme explain what was going on Rome and Carthage the powers of the western meditraninan are squaring of for the second time in history in what is known as the Second Punic War. Ok Rome is currently easily the champ when it comes warfare handsdown the design of the legions and and skill and agressivenessroman comanders were agressive because the would only serve for one year at a time and no consecutive years so they were eager to gain military glory quickly of the roman comanders was amazing.brWar has been declared and Hannibal is heading from spainno he was not a spaniard Carthage was located in Nothern africa and was of phoncian descent towards the Alps He crosses the Alps on foot with his army a difficult procedure even today with technologies on foot let alone back then. He manages to do all this with War elephants in tow! do i hear genious yet? no? keep reading! The romans amazed at the daring climb attempt battle with Hannibal the square of on the battle field , Carthagians and , Romans take a guess who do you think won?brbrbrHANNIBAL yes he beat the all time supreme of ancient armies with a major disadvantage and guess what else? that Roman army was anilahted were as Hannibal took very few cassualties! how u scream?? in ancient warfare it was which line could bend the other into breaking forcing the opponent to retreat soooooo Hannibal put merceneries and other weak soldiers in the center of the line were the most pressure would be to break.. STUPID U CRY!? whats more he put all his strong men and cavalry on the wings.... so as the romans sensing the weakness in the center charged in....the Carthagain line slowly bent till it became a semicircle then as brHannibal had ordered the wings moved in behind the romans pushing them in successfully forming a complete circle around the entire roman army then the tightened the circle were the roman men could barely draw their swords without hitting their comrade next to them... and then simply they were brdestroyed...military genius using the enemies advantage of number against them! He moved on into the roman peninsula holding therefor years destroying every army sent against him but unable to take rome due to the lack of men.... lol he did much much more but that is one of my favorite battles...now take this in account he destroyed much larger armies and one might notice that most of his men were not Carthaginians yet he still held their loyalty and respect...again genious....He took on and defeated the most disciplined army in the world, the romans, and with a numerical disadvantage... Now you may say Alexzander did the same but the forces he opposed were brsizably large such as the persians but were not skilled fightersbrand as for Julias Ceaser you obviously do not read history..he did very little soldiery mainly in Gaul and that was for military glory one of his many little steps to become emperor he was not a brilliant general he was a brilliant politician..
