The first time was a failure.

In 55 BC, Julius Caesar, the new governor of Gaul, led two legions, 1000, and entered Dover Port by 80 clippers.

Beat the local bretons.

I wonder if this Britten has anything to do with "England"

After Caesar's victory, the reserve fleet could not arrive because of the storm.

The Romans who were still in danger returned to the European continent with Britten hostages.

The next year, in 54 BC, Caesar made a comeback with 800 ships and 25,000 people.

Defeated Sibila Nuss, the most powerful king in the south of England.

However, two months later, there was an uprising in Gaul, and Caesar had to lead his army back to the mainland.

Since then, he has never set foot on this magical land.

Why did Caesar attack England?

Its purpose was to punish bretons, who provided shelter for the Gaul insurgents.

Of course, I am drooling over the rich products of this island.

At the same time, he also used military victory to realize his political ambitions.

About Caesar, if we talk about Roman history in the next stage, we will elaborate on it.

The influence of this movement on Britain lies in

Caesar opened the trade channel.

Later, many Romans followed Caesar's footsteps from Gaul to England.

The second battle was nearly a hundred years later.

In 43 AD, the newly enthroned Roman emperor Claudius hoped to improve his prestige through military victory.

Arrus Proutius was ordered to lead 40,000 people into Britain.

There seems to be a Roman historian with the same name. I wonder if it's the same person.

In 47 AD, the Romans conquered Britain.

Because the Romans brought heavy taxes and military service.

It has brought oppression to officials and exploitation of high-profit commodities.

Led to some uprisings in the middle.

It took the Romans 18 years to finally conquer Britain.

After the uprising, Rome began to adopt a relatively moderate ruling policy.

In 78 AD, Agger Rygula, Tacitus' father-in-law, became the Governor of Britain.

He built the Roman Avenue to Wales and built garrison castles along the way.

Completed the conquest of Wales.

And tried to expedition to Scotland, but failed.

In 83 AD, Agger Rygula completed a trip around the island.

Based on this, a plan to conquer the whole island was made.

But the next year, he was recalled to Rome and failed again.

During his tenure as governor, he promoted tax equalization, anti-monopoly, elimination of corrupt officials, promotion of architecture, education and promotion of Latin.

The aborigines gradually abandoned their original way of life and imitated the Romans, thus consolidating the Roman rule in Britain.

In June 793, the Vikings landed on Lindisfarne Island on the north coast of England, attacked and plundered the monasteries there, slaughtered a large number of priests, and drove local priests and residents into their slaves. This sudden attack was like a bolt from the blue for Christian Europe, and this incident also announced the arrival of the pirate era.

800 years ago, the scope of such attacks was often limited to coastal areas. Generally, only one or two boats are dispatched, and as soon as they grab the property, they quickly retreat. But before long, Denmark, Norway and Sweden gave birth to a well-organized fleet. Under the command of ambitious kings and military leaders, they began large-scale foreign expansion and colonization-invading other countries, demanding tribute and ransom, and plundering land.

In about 8 10, the Danish king Godfred attacked the coast of frys (in present-day Holland) and began to attack a part of Charlemagne Empire, causing considerable damage. The success of the first battle inspired Godfrey, who threatened to conquer the whole empire, but his plan died in an assassination before it was implemented. Charlemagne also took this opportunity to strengthen his defense, basically keeping these pirates out of the heart of Germany. (But France won't care. )

After that, the Vikings turned their eyes to the British Isles and Frank. In 85 1 year, the Danes began to attack Britain. From 865 to 880, the Danes' flags traveled half of England. In 873, Emond, a small English country, was captured and killed by an arrow. Only the kingdom of Wessex in the southwest of England, under the command of Alfred the Great, kept the invaders out of the kingdom with fortresses and fortifications arranged in a circular chain. At the same time, I personally designed and set up a new type of fast fleet, which has extremely high side (to prevent pirates from boarding) and fast draught (to deal with Viking long ships) to fight against the Vikings at sea.

In order to compete for maritime hegemony, Spain and Britain launched a spectacular naval battle in the English Channel in August 1588. In this naval battle, Spain is powerful, with advanced weapons and powerful warships, with more than 30,000 troops. Known as "the luckiest invincible fleet." At that time, the British army was small, and the entire fleet had only 9,000 fighters. Compared with the two armies, the two armies are outnumbered, and Spain obviously has an absolute advantage. Surprisingly, however, the end of this naval battle ended in Spain's devastating failure, and the "Armada" was almost wiped out. Since then, Spain has declined sharply, and the status of "maritime hegemon" has been replaced by Britain. 1940 In June, after the Germans occupied the western European continent, they made a plan to invade Britain from the sea in July. According to the plan, combat operations are divided into two stages: the first stage is strategic bombing and maritime blockade, and the second stage is landing and occupation. On August 1 day, A. Hitler issued an order to ask the German Air Force to destroy the British Air Force, seize the strategic air superiority and support the landing operations at sea. H Goering, commander of the German Air Force, believes that Britain can be forced to surrender by air strikes alone. Hitler also believed that the British army was defeated and weakened in the western European continent, and it was possible to conquer Britain through strategic bombing and political induction. Britain will land if it doesn't surrender, so it must seize the air superiority first. About 2,400 German combat aircraft (deployed in 53 bases, the nearest base is only 32 kilometers away from the British mainland) are organized into three aviation groups: the second aviation group (Commander A. Kesselring), stationed in the northeast of France, the Netherlands and Belgium; The 3rd Air Force (Commander H. Speller), located in the north and northwest of France; The fifth air force (commander H.-J. Stumpf) is stationed in Norway. The 2 nd and 3 rd air teams are the main forces, and the 5 th air team only participates in the war. With nearly 700 fighters, 2,000 anti-aircraft guns and 500 bombers, the British Air Force is at a disadvantage in strength. However, the aviation industry is developed, the aircraft manufacturing capacity is strong, and the newly invented radar has greatly improved the air defense capability.
