Chapter 154: Battle of Sarden(7/?)

There was a difference between the Imperial Army and the Republic. The biggest difference lay in their military doctrines. This might have seemed trivial, but it was far from it.

For example, the Imperial military doctrine was a hybrid strategy. It required special discipline and high-level commanders to flawlessly execute various tactics, such as pincer movements, feigned attacks, blitzkrieg, psychological intimidation, and even trench warfare.

In contrast, the Republic's military doctrine was an old one, focused on massive manpower and rapid advancement. It was the most effective doctrine of its time, stemming from the reforms of Grand Lorenzo.

After the fall of the Aurelion Empire and the establishment of the Republic, the Aurelions, who hadn't felt threatened for a long time, had failed to update their military doctrine.
