After the five teams of Roman youth sent by the city to the other five towns were called back, Bai Feng added all these youth troops to the first legion of Licinius, and the four most elite teams of the first legion were drawn out by Bai Feng.
These four teams of the original Roman youth army in the city of Rome have the highest experience level among the Roman youth army, and they are also the systematic army that does not account for the recruitment quota of the city of Rome, and in the future, he plans to reuse the Doge's Guard, and he has transferred them to his side.
From now on, the Doge's Guard, with Peris as the commander, will take on more important responsibilities, and the Guards Battalion, led by Maxi and Darnell, will be based on the four original Roman youth corps.
In addition, the two teams of Roman light cavalry in Nelson's Roman Spear Legion were also drawn back by Bai Feng and added to Licinius's First Legion, and Nelson got four thousand elite soldiers and thousands of war horses that Bai Feng had prepared for him.
What can be done for the Roman Spear Legion, Bai Feng has already done it, and when the Roman Spear Legion can turn the additional four thousand elite soldiers into four thousand elite cavalry, it depends on Nelson's own efforts.
All the elite cavalry captured by Bai Feng from the Essini Kingdom had been snatched up by the legion commanders with the formation of the general guard, and Nelson, who finally returned to Rome with Eggers, could only get the 4,000 elite soldiers that Bai Feng had specially prepared for him.
In fact, if Bai Feng hadn't greeted Antio, who was in charge of coordinating the division of troops, Nelson probably wouldn't have even been able to get an elite soldier, and these wolf-like legion commanders were more active than anyone else in snatching up excellent soldiers.
Even Gamilios and Gatus, who are father and son, have no concessions, let alone the other legion commanders, anyway, for Bai Feng, the combat effectiveness of any legion is the improvement of the strength of Roman City, so he doesn't care much about who gets better soldiers.
If it weren't for Nelson's Roman Spear Legion, which had been carrying out the hardest and most tiring mission for the past two months, Bai Feng would not have been able to deliberately leave four thousand elite soldiers for her;
After these things are almost dealt with, Bai Feng has to pay close attention to the military situation of Rome City; after this round of legion adjustments, the military strength attribute table of Rome City has also undergone a new look!

The last time Bai Feng checked the list of the military strength attributes of this Roman City, the total strength of the Roman City was only more than 120,000, and the strength of the allied legions was at the lowest point of less than 10,000; this time, the army of the Roman City was already as high as more than 160,000 people!
Although it included 50,000 soldiers of the Tuntian Legion who were not among the regular army, it was enough to prove that the military strength of the Roman city had improved by leaps and bounds again, but such an increase did not make Bai Feng happy, because the strength of the Roman city's systematic army was still too weak.
Up to now, the systematic army recruited by the city itself, plus the army summoned by the temple and the warriors of the temple, as well as the initial four teams of Roman youth army, the total strength of the army was only more than 6,000 points, accounting for less than four percent of the total strength of the city of Rome.
Such a disparity in the number of troops made Bai Feng's heart always feel a little uneasy, not that he didn't want to believe in the loyalty of the barbarian warriors, but that he was dissatisfied with the small number of army in the Roman City system, and he wanted to recruit more and more elite system troops as soon as possible!
Of course, it is not without benefit that the number of system armies is small, at least the upcoming maintenance costs will be much less, and if you calculate the maintenance costs only with the current Roman city system army, it is also a very large amount.
First of all, there are thirteen teams of Roman youth and two teams of Roman light cavalry, as well as twelve teams of town militia, which need 3,630 gold treasury funds, and battlefield ghosts and spellcasters also need maintenance costs, a total of 1,500 gold treasury funds.
The thirteen double-lined warships on the naval side also need 1040 gold treasury funds for maintenance, and in addition to those special classes summoned by the temple, their maintenance costs total 1601 gold, and the total maintenance cost of all system armies will be as high as 7771 gold!
