65. The Battle of Alesia (Part II)

Alesia is Julius Caesar’s greatest battle and one of the most famous battles in history. Caesar has now surrounded Alesia with two rings of ramparts, towers, traps and ditches. But with a massive Gallic relief army bearing down upon them, Caesar and his army find themselves surrounded. Fighting now on two fronts and heavily outnumbered, the Romans will be pushed to their breaking point.
