- Franz Kafka (Austrian novelist)
Among the existing legions in the city of Rome, each field corps had seven wings (four brigades) and twenty-eight brigades, each Macedonian phalanx corps had ten wings (two brigades) and twenty brigades, the Doge's Guard had four wings (four brigades) and sixteen brigades, and the cavalry regiment had five wings (four brigades) and twenty brigades.
The newly formed Hammer Legion adopted the same wing as the cavalry legion, except that the subordinate wings became two and the brigade was only eight, and the large army composed of these legions was the entire unsystematic field army of the city of Rome.
The four field corps had a total of one hundred and twelve brigades, the three Macedonian phalanx corps had a total of sixty brigades, plus sixteen brigades of the governor's guard and twenty-eight brigades of the cavalry units, for a total of two hundred and sixteen brigades.
In addition to the regular field army, the town guard of each directly subordinate town is also composed of two infantry brigades, and there are 36 brigades in 18 directly subordinate towns; each tuntian regiment has three wings (four brigades) and 12 brigades.
In the Roman legions, which were a mixture of systematic armies and barbarian warriors, there were twelve brigades of longbow (four brigades) composed of three barbarian warriors, and eighteen brigades of the standard regiment (systematic formation) composed of four systematic soldiers and two cavalry brigades.
Although Ba'ans' Third Legion and Hartman's Fourth Legion were still being formed, Bai Feng still had to consider them as full legions when considering the priest configuration, so that the city of Rome had a total of five hundred and eighty-eight brigades.
This is not counting the priests needed for the guard battalion and the navy, the total strength of nearly four thousand guards battalion and ninety warships also need to be equipped with corresponding priests; it's just that before completing the priest configuration of the main force of the army, Bai Feng didn't think of them.
Bai Feng, who had long wanted to leave for the imperial capital, gave up his plan to travel in order to wait for those of the other four families, and it was not until the fourth day after the New Year that the three members of the Li family, who were closest to the Bai family, came to the county town of Llorente while Bai Feng waited.
As the head of the Li family, Li Mubai can be regarded as the most powerful of the marquis of the Heavenly Dragon Empire, but compared to the names of his children and grandchildren, his name is much inferior, at least for Bai Feng.
Li Mubai's eldest son Li Yuan, eldest grandson Li Jiancheng, and second grandson Li Shimin, the names of these three people are really thunderous to Bai Feng; even if Bai Feng knew that the other party was not the founder of the Tang Empire, he still couldn't help but think badly.
According to the agreement of the five major families, Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin of the Li family will go to the imperial capital with Bai Feng, and Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin will come to the Bai family with their sister Li Xiuning, who is two years younger than them.
Bai Haotian was able to follow Duke Karl's relationship and send the boys and girls of the Bai family who were under the age of eighteen to the Imperial Academy, and the Li family, whose strength was not much inferior to the Bai family, could naturally do it;
Bai Feng still appreciates Li Jiancheng, who exudes an elegant atmosphere, and Li Xiuning, who is a little rude and willful, does not make Bai Feng feel repulsed, especially when Li Xiuning is coquettish to Li Jiancheng, it makes Bai Feng find the shadow of Ling'er in her.
Compared with Li Jiancheng's gentleness and Li Xiuning's innocence and cuteness, the unruly Li Shimin is not so likeable; the status of the Li family in the south has allowed Li Shimin to develop a character of no one in his eyes since he was a child, and his unconsciously revealed arrogance makes Bai Feng very disliked.
Bai Feng didn't know that Li Shimin's performance in front of him was already considered restrained, if it weren't for the two new saint-level powerhouses of the Bai family, Li Shimin, who had a high opinion of himself, would not have taken him, the second child of the Bai family, in his eyes, this is Li Shimin's character.
Following the three members of the Li family to the Bai Mansion was Peter of the Andre family, he came to the Bai family alone, with only ten guards by his side; as the eldest grandson of the Andre family, his gesture made Bai Feng nod secretly.
The remnants of the barbarians in the southern region have never been cleaned up, and the barbarian avengers hidden in the shadows have always been the henchmen of the five major families in the south.
After he came to the Bai family, his attitude towards Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin was enough to prove that he was more intelligent than Li Shimin, and he was no worse than Li Jiancheng.
In fact, if you think about it, whether it is Li Jiancheng of the Li family or Peter of the Andre family, they are the established heirs of their respective families, and each family will spare no effort to cultivate the future helmsman of this kind of family.
In other words, Li Mubai, the head of the Li family, and his son Li Yuan can connive at Li Shimin's eyes, but they will not allow Li Jiancheng to have a slight flaw, because in the eyes of Li Mubai and Li Yuan, Li Jiancheng is the future of the Li family!
Sun Ce and Sun Quan of the Sun family came to Baifu with Long Zhan and Long Xin of the Long family, and like the two people of the Li family, they also brought their own sisters, Sun Ce took Sun Shangxiang of the Sun family, and Long Zhan took Long Aoxue of the Long family.
The bold and atmospheric Sun Ce and the upright Long Zhan have been good friends since childhood, and they have more than once sneaked out to play behind their families; they are only eighteen years old, and they have had a friendship for fifteen years, and their feelings are simply closer than brothers!
Of course, this closer than his own brother refers to Sun Ce's heart, because Sun Ce doesn't like his own brother Sun Quan very much, he always feels that his younger brother has too many thoughts and too many things hidden in his heart, and he is not the same kind of person as himself.
Long Zhan, who regarded Sun Ce as his best friend, did not regard Sun Ce as more important than his own brother, who let him have a big brother who was so good that it was enviable? Long Bo of the Long family was a good brother who loved and cared for his younger brothers and sisters.
From childhood to adulthood, Long Zhan, who is two years younger than Long Bo, is the follower behind Long Bo, Long Xin and Long Aoxue also like to follow behind their eldest brother, and Long Bo will always take care of them meticulously, even if they make any mistakes, Long Bo will bear it himself.
These ten Southern Realm Junjie who appeared in front of Bai Feng's eyes were quickly seen through by Bai Feng, they were not deeply involved in the world, in front of Bai Feng who had experienced countless times, it was as simple as a blank piece of paper, and it was not too simple for Bai Feng to see through their careful thinking!
The phrase that people are like clusters and groups has been perfectly embodied in these people, from the time everyone gathered in Baifu to the official departure the next day, the eleven people from the five families, including Bai Feng, became three independent circles.
Sun Ce, who has a similar personality, and Long Zhan rode his horse side by side, followed by Long Xin, Long Aoxue, Sun Shangxiang, and Li Xiuning; Li Jiancheng and Peter, who had a good impression of each other, talked very happily, and Li Shimin and Sun Quan also talked very well together.
The reason why Li Xiuning was mixed in the circle between Sun Ce and Long Zhan was purely because Long Aoxue and Sun Shangxiang were there; girls always like to stay with girls, and Li Xiuning, who was still by Li Jiancheng's side, was urged by Li Jiancheng to go to their side.
Li Jiancheng's love for Li Xiuning is something Bai Feng can feel, from the perspective of being an elder brother, Li Jiancheng may not be much worse than you Longbo; his tolerance of Li Shimin and his love for Li Xiuning can be seen even by Bai Feng, a bystander.
