I can't really answer this for you because this is YOUR opinion but here's what I would've said; Yes, I would have because of the extreme hardships the militia men had to go through. During that winter, many soldiers had suffered the consequences of going through and not quitting the journey but if I were one of them, I would've quit.

Men had to walk through treacherous snow which also was cold and wet, this was not a good environment for soldiers to be in.
The term "white mans burden" refers to imperialism, Eurocentric racism and Western aspirations to dominate the developing world.

Piye or also known as Piankhithe Ku sh ite ruler of Nubia.
Nubia had been a vassal of early Egypt for approximately 2,500 years by the perIod of Piye's takeovers. All this while Nubia's culture was accepting and familiarizing to the well-known Egyptian culture. In the late 8th century BC, when Pi ye rose to power, Egypt as a realm had finished and the civilization was much run-down and separated in governance. Essentially Nubia was ever waiting and viewing for their chance to rise, and Pi ye must have seen himself as satisfying the ready moment. Lastly, he led the Nubians against their once long time overlords and now the tables were turned. This measured himself the true ruler of Egypt as well, the correct successor to the transcendent traditions experienced by the Pharaohs such as Ramses II and Thutmose III.
