Bai Feng, who was so distressed that he was dripping blood, took four teams of royal cavalry and four teams of royal pikemen to the barracks area in the west of the city, and handed over the two teams of royal cavalry to Captain Gartus, and the remaining six teams of soldiers were all given to Commander Gamilios.

After asking Gamilios to lead the army back to Rome, Bai Feng asked Gamilios to take his captains to stay in the camp of the Cheetah Legion for a few days to observe the training mode of the Macedonian phalanx of the Cheetah Legion.

With the experience of his predecessors, the weapons and equipment have been distributed, Bai Feng sent the best instructor to the Tasia Legion, and the rest will be completed by Gamilios himself, and whether the Tasia Legion can grow up depends on Gamilios.

After dealing with the training of the Tasya Legion, Bai Feng, who felt very uncomfortable, hurried back to his governor's mansion to count the statues of gods; the twenty-six statues of gods that were still impressively listed yesterday have become eighteen today, and Bai Feng feels a toothache when he looks at it.

This tossing and turning has made more than half of September pass, and the fleet of Rome City has officially expanded to the size of ten double warships the day before yesterday, and the task given to them by Bai Feng is to ensure absolute control of the left flank tributaries of the Cangluo River.

With the powerful combat power of the double-column battleships equipped with the Leng Huai longbowmen, as long as there are four double-column battleships patrolling the river surface of the left flank tributary of the Cangluo River at the same time, the Eastern Alliance on the north bank will not be able to lead the army southward at all, this is the value of sea power!

Well, it would be an exaggeration to use the word sea power on the Cangluo River, but Bai Feng still felt that the fleet of the Roman city should not be limited to the Cangluo River, but should aim at the wider ocean.

The main stream of the Cangluo River further south can enter the territory of the Werther tribe, and after passing through the territory of the Werther tribe, it will be a vast and boundless sea, and Bai Feng's heart is still full of expectations for the sea of this world.

It is said that the right tributary of the Kura River flowing into the Orc Empire through the Sunset Mountains also leads to the sea, does this mean that the fleet of the Roman City can use the Kura River to connect with the Orc Empire?

Before the Age of Discovery, people living in Europe, Asia and Africa thought that the continent they lived on was the only continent on the earth, and it was not until Columbus discovered the New World that mankind became aware of the existence of other continents.

Then, there was the colonial era when the European powers vied with each other, and the American continent and the Australian continent were completely reduced to the colonies of the forerunners, and a large number of so-called empires on which the sun never set were born;

Bai Feng, who has always been interested in the ocean, doesn't think that there is only this continent where the Celestial Dragon Empire is located in this world, who knows if there are some other unknown continents or some huge islands in the distant overseas.

Now Bai Feng is still busy with the development and expansion of Roman City, he does not have too much time and energy to think about what the sea south of the mainland is like, and the fleet of Roman City does not have the strength to explore whether there are other continents and islands further overseas.

But Bai Feng's spirit of exploration of the unknown in his heart will not be indelible, and when he develops the city of Rome to a certain extent, and the city of Rome also has a powerful naval fleet, when the time comes, he will inevitably lead the fleet to the sea!

Countless examples on the earth are educating Bai Feng, human vision must not be limited to land, the vast ocean and free sky should also be the object of human pursuit, at least Bai Feng thinks so in his heart.

The fleet in Rome had the strength to blockade the left flank of the Cangluo River, and Bai Feng felt that it was worthless to leave the two main field armies of Bazel and Eggers on the south bank of the Cangluo River, so Bai Feng gave them the order to return to Rome.

Bronno's Dragons were stationed in the middle of the towns of Hobulo and Vasco to suppress a potential rebellion in the two towns, and without the support of the Tuntian Legion, the barbarians proved to be incapable of mutiny.

Considering the need for troops for the upcoming eastward crusade of Rome, Bai Feng decided to transfer Bronno's legions back from the east bank of the Cangluo River, so that all the six field legions of Rome City would be assembled in Rome City and could attack eastward at any time.

Nelson's Roman Spear Legion, Bai Feng does not plan to transfer them back for the time being, on the one hand, because their mobility can indeed play a role in patrolling the south and east coasts, and on the other hand, Bai Feng is not at ease with the forces within the Roman City.

What if the main army of Rome crossed the main stream of the Cangluo River and attacked the eastern hinterland of the Aceni tribe, and a small town or a regiment of Tuntian in the city of Rome tried to rebel?

The main army that had already gone out to Rome City was not so easy to return to the army, and the temple warriors led by Leng Gundam and Leng Gaofei could not leave Rome City too far, and such an embarrassing situation was very likely to completely drag down the expedition of Rome City, which was not what Bai Feng wanted to see.

This is naturally the best time for Nelson's cavalry troops to play their role, with the strong mobility and not weak combat effectiveness of the Roman Spear Legion, any rebellion of the Tuntian Legion can be quickly suppressed by them.

As for the rebellion of a certain town, even if they can annihilate the town guards stationed in the town, it is impossible to resist the attack of Nelson's army with a group of old and weak women and children;

If the current city of Rome was dominated by any of Luquis, Quintus, Spartacus, Carabes, etc., plus people like Vipsani or Marcus to handle government affairs, why would Bai Feng still need to worry so much!

Regarding the matter of summoning generals, Bai Feng has also communicated with the high priest of Binglan in detail, summoning generals cannot be specified to summon, and can only be summoned by summoning immediately;

Among the three of them, Eggers is the real veteran of the battlefield, while Bazel is a tiger general on the battlefield, and Brono is a resourceful general who is good at seizing the opportunity.

The brave Bazel lacks the use of resourcefulness, the strategizing Brono is not as strong as a general, and Eggers has a rare ability to both, but it is a pity that Bai Feng cannot trust him from the heart.

In fact, it is impossible for Bai Feng to trust all the barbarian generals as much as he does with Licinius and Antio, which has nothing to do with their origins, but the latter has been loyal to Bai Feng for more than ten years, and this kind of experience is not something that ordinary people have.

After all, Bai Feng trusted the generals summoned from the temple the most, who made those generals loyal generals who followed him to fight the Roman world? Bai Feng is a nostalgic person, and loyalty takes time to prove.
