For their part, the Helvetii still have one last surprise in store for the Romans. Eventually, Caesar must play judge and jury on the fate of the entire Helvetii.

Julius Caesar’s army is famed for being a well-oiled machine that had a fanatical devotion to their commander unlike any seen in history. At this point in our story, they are not yet that army. Caesar plans a clever trap for the Helvetii but miscommunications and scouting blunders combine to ruin his well laid plans.   Venmo If you enjoyed the episode and want to leave a tip, click the link below! https://venmo.com/code?user_id=3764325529420842984&created=1680471101.0362968&printed=1    Patreon If you want to contribute to The March of History with a monthly donation, click the link below! https://www.patreon.com/themarchofhistory    PayPal If you want to contribute to The March of History with a one time or monthly donation, click the link below! https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=QZREW4PVL2M3A    Youtube - Trevor Travels https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-kjCywT0iuq1XgVY_u88gg   Social Medias (All can be found at the following link): linktr.ee/themarchofhistory  Instagram - @themarchofhistory Twitter - @march_history Facebook - Search "The March of History"   Music: LucasNapoleone/Shutterstock.com

Julius Caesar’s army faces early setbacks against the Helvetii. Soon Caesar finds out the real enemy is within his own camp.

Julius Caesar recruits additional legions without permission from the Senate. With his new army he races to confront the Helvetii as they rampage through the territory of tribes allied with Rome. Caesar catches up with them at an opportune moment, and, never being one to miss an opportunity, he seizes it. We gain our first glimpse of Caesar’s ruthlessness in Gaul.   Venmo If you enjoyed the episode and want to leave a tip, click the link below! https://venmo.com/code?user_id=3764325529420842984&created=1680471101.0362968&printed=1    Patreon If you want to contribute to The March of History with a monthly donation, click the link below! https://www.patreon.com/themarchofhistory    PayPal If you want to contribute to The March of History with a one time or monthly donation, click the link below! https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=QZREW4PVL2M3A    Youtube - Trevor Travels https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-kjCywT0iuq1XgVY_u88gg   Social Medias (All can be found at the following link): linktr.ee/themarchofhistory  Instagram - @themarchofhistory Twitter - @march_history Facebook - Search "The March of History"   Music: LucasNapoleone/Shutterstock.com

A massive migration of "barbarians" is headed directly for one of Julius Caesar’s provinces. This is Caesar’s first test as Proconsul. The tribes say they want to pass through Transalpine Gaul but promise not to misbehave. Caesar is having none of it. What’s more, he has spotted an opportunity for glory.    Note: Further Gaul and Transalpine Gaul are two names for the same province. In this episode I use the terms interchangeably.   Correction: I discuss the practice of forcing your enemies to “pass under the yoke” in this episode. I stated the yoke would be a triangle made of spears that defeated soldiers would be forced to march under. This was a mistake as the yoke would really be two spears stuck into the ground with a third spear running perpendicular and connecting them at the top. This would form a rectangle for the soldiers to walk under, not a triangle.   Venmo If you enjoyed the episode and want to leave a tip, click the link below! https://venmo.com/code?user_id=3764325529420842984&created=1680471101.0362968&printed=1    Patreon If you want to contribute to The March of History with a monthly donation, click the link below! https://www.patreon.com/themarchofhistory    PayPal If you want to contribute to The March of History with a one time or monthly donation, click the link below! https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=QZREW4PVL2M3A    Youtube - Trevor Travels https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-kjCywT0iuq1XgVY_u88gg   Social Medias (All can be found at the following link): linktr.ee/themarchofhistory  Instagram - @themarchofhistory Twitter - @march_history Facebook - Search "The March of History"   Music: LucasNapoleone/Shutterstock.com
