I wonder why you dont put a bit more weight on the fact that "B" did in fact "surprise" the Romans ?
They managed to conceal sufficient weapons & amass troops (sorry coloful mob) under the noses of their occupiers and pretty much ran amok whilst the Romans ... did what ?
Granted some wrong moves were made and as usual lost the important battle
As for controlling a mob ... these were warriors ( or a proportion were ) not soldiers ..so all in all I think they did quite well.
