A philosopher once said if you outnumber the enemy army 2:1, split your army into two. If you are equal in size, you may fight them. However I am not sure if this would be the case. And what of the possibility of an ambush that would cripple our efforts? I know I am no military strategist, but I would have both legions travel to the first province, capture it, retrain, and then send off one of them to capture the other province.
