Quote:A good day for Belisarius!Very much so! Had he faced a more resolved opponent who would not have been distracted, the Romans could easily have ended their reconquest of Africa there and then. The army was not a united force, which was one of the major handicaps (next to underfunding and manpower shortage) which became apparent later in Italy.
