The achievements of geniuses are eternal, and time cannot change them. Through his works, the genius establishes his own immortality on earth, thus tripledly transcending time. He fused all his perceptions and memories to prevent his experience from coming to naught, and every moment of his experience that passed away could be preserved forever. The birth of a genius does not depend on the times, and the works of a genius will never die.

– Otto Weininger (Austrian philosopher)

Paresi, who served as Bai Feng's personal bodyguard by the side of the Flame Swordmaster, and Slim, who served as the commander of the Overseer Cavalry, were both in the barracks of the pro-guard guards, and if Bai Feng wanted to summon them, he only needed to give a casual order, and they would arrive at Bai Feng's military tent within three minutes.

But Bai Feng didn't want to summon Paresi and Slim now, on the one hand, because Cunningham still needed three days to hand over to Aetius and the others, and on the other hand, because Aetius and the others were about to come to Bai Feng's military tent to return to their lives.

After taking five minutes to eat dinner, Bai Feng, who had just returned to the military tent, received a report from Aetius and the other five army commanders who came to return to his life;

In all fairness, Aetius and Cabitus, who were born as generals of the system, were both Bai Feng's trusted confidants, and out of recognition and affirmation of the system, Bai Feng would not question their abilities, let alone blame them for the poor performance of the Eastern Legion.

Keitel, the commander of the Third Eastern Legion, and Brauchitsch, the commander of the Fourth Eastern Legion, were also newly promoted generals who were personally selected by Bai Feng, but the commander of the Fifth Eastern Legion, Little Luke, had never been trusted and valued by Bai Feng.

Little Luke, who was born as an ordinary civilian, has neither rich military experience nor extraordinary natural ability, if it weren't for Bai Feng's need to buy the hearts of the surrendered soldiers by reusing him, with his ability and experience alone, he could only serve as a squadron leader in the standing army at best.

Even in the Oriental Legion, which was almost entirely composed of new recruits, the position of captain was more suitable for Luke Jr. than the position of corps commander, and of course, Luke Jr. was not without merit, and his greatest advantage was that he had a very high reputation in the hearts of the officers and men of the Fifth Eastern Legion.

The Fifth Eastern Legion, which was formed with the backbone of tens of thousands of recruits of the Wind Thieves Regiment as the core, and the other four Eastern Legions composed of ordinary young and strong people, there was always a faint layer of invisible estrangement, and it was always difficult for the two sides to trust each other.

The officers and men of the Fifth Eastern Legion, which seemed out of place within the Eastern Legion, would inevitably be more united, and there was no doubt that little Luke, who played an important role in the civil strife of the Swift Thieves, became the cohesive core of the soldiers of the Legion.

Based on the current situation of the Fifth Eastern Legion, Bai Feng has no intention of transferring little Luke in the short term, and in the longer term, it depends on little Luke's own performance; if he can keep up with his ability and loyalty, Bai Feng doesn't mind leaving him in the position of corps commander.

While Bai Feng was thinking about the arrangements for little Luke, the five legion commanders led by Aetius walked into the military tent side by side, and after they had finished saluting respectfully, Bai Feng, whose face was as heavy as water, reprimanded:

"Aetius and Gatbitus, you are the commanders of the two armies, how do you think you should take responsibility for not completing the task on time?"

"Let the general be punished!" Aetius and Cabitus, who were ready, took the initiative to admit their mistake without any justification.

Bai Feng's unangry and self-righteous expression really worried him in the eyes of little Luke, who was already a little frightened, and Aetius and Cabitus admitted their mistakes without even explaining, which made little Luke, who was not familiar with Bai Feng's character, feel terrified from the bottom of his heart.

The two generals who were both the commanders of the Eastern Legion, Aetius and Cabitus were powerful, and little Luke had seen them with his own eyes, and the two generals who were so strong didn't even dare to explain in front of Bai Feng, this situation shocked little Luke beyond measure.

"Let me be punished?" Bai Feng, who sneered, punished them severely without hesitation: "Since you let me punish you, then I will remove you from the position of regiment commander;

"The last general is convinced!" Aetius and Cabitus, who were still respectful, calmly accepted Bai Feng's severe punishment.

"It's not my purpose to punish you, it's just that I'm urging you to try to do better, so all five of you will be removed from your position as Legion Commander, but you will still act as Legion Commander of your respective Legion, and whether or not you can be reinstated depends on your own efforts. ”

"No!" Aetius, the highest-ranking of the five legion commanders, bowed down first.

"No!" Immediately afterward, the other four legion commanders also walked to the center of the tent and responded in unison.

"Tomorrow morning, my General Cunningham will come to you with a plan to strengthen the Eastern Legion, and your task is to figure out what you need to do in three days, and then strengthen your respective legions according to this plan. ”

"In three days' time, General Cunningham has other important tasks to do, and you have to do your part, and I will give you three months to strengthen your legion as much as possible. ”

"General, after three months, what kind of tasks do we need to perform in order to regain our original honor?" For the Spartan warrior Gapitus, who valued honor above life, recovering his lost honor was what he most desperately wanted to do.

"After three months, your assessment task is to bring back the heads of five hundred orcs, and I don't care what means you use, and whether you kill the strong or weak among the orcs, I only ask you to bring back the heads of five hundred orcs on the premise of fighting independently. ”

It is much more difficult to bring back the heads of 500 orcs than to kill 500 orc warriors in battle, and it is no exaggeration to say that the former is at least three times more difficult than the latter, after all, if you want to cut off the head of an orc warrior, you must completely annihilate this orc army to do it.

Independently annihilating a 500-strong orc army is an almost impossible task for the Eastern Legion at this stage, and even a division of the Standing Legion, which is far superior in combat effectiveness to the Eastern Legion, may be unable to accomplish this arduous task.

It was precisely because this task was too arduous that Bai Feng took this task as a test for the five legion leaders to regain their honor, and in order to facilitate the legion leaders to complete this task, Bai Feng also deliberately allowed them to play freely.

"General rest assured, in three months, I, Gapitus, will definitely use the blood of orcs to regain my lost honor!"

Luke Jr., who had seen a small group of orc warriors hunt down thousands of city defenders, had a shadow in his heart for the extremely powerful orc warriors, but in the context of the other four legion commanders eager to try, he had to disguise his excitement.

Bai Feng, whose eyes have never left Little Luke, how could he not notice Little Luke's reluctance and worry; out of consideration for the dignity of Little Luke, in front of the other four generals, Bai Feng is not good at directly pointing out Little Luke's thoughts.

After everything that should be said was almost done, Bai Feng asked the other four legion commanders to return to the barracks while leaving the worried little Luke alone, and little Luke, who didn't know why, had to watch his four colleagues leave with a feeling of trepidation.
