"Chapter 21: The Eagle Legion"
Language is as important to us as a tool as a horse is to a knight. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe best steed is for the best knight, and the best language is for the best mind.
- Alighelli Dante (Italian poet, one of the pioneers of the European Renaissance)
Bai Feng, who had a poor amount of alcohol, drank a few more glasses in the restaurant, and he felt very sober at the time, but the stamina of red wine soon came up, and Bai Feng, who was blushing at this time, was a little drunk, and even Eggers and others could clearly detect that Bai Feng was wrong.
Before, Bai Feng gave people the feeling of being a gentle and elegant son, but now there is a trace of bohemianism and wildness in his words and deeds; it is undeniable that such Bai Feng may be the real Bai Feng.
"Well, no one has had time to count the exact number of warriors of our Aceni tribe after this battle, and when I return to the east bank tomorrow and count them, I will naturally lead all the other warriors to Rome on the basis of leaving 20,000 men. ”
Facing the Governor of Bai Feng, who seemed to have changed into a person, Eggers had to deal with it carefully, even if he had believed the number Bai Feng just said in his heart, but he couldn't fully admit it at this moment, this involved the interests of the entire Aceni tribe.
"Well, then I'll wait in Rome for General Eggers. Fortunately, Bai Feng didn't mean to embarrass Eggers, he just exposed Eggers's vague words in person, and didn't dwell on this matter more.
With Bai Feng's answer, the atmosphere in the council hall was no longer as awkward and solemn as it was just now, and a meaningful smile appeared on Eggers' face;
As long as the supreme ruler of the city of Rome and the queen of the Esceni tribe become a family, then there is no need for the city of Rome and the Esceni tribe to divide you and me anymore? This is a real big backer for the Essini tribe in the period of decay!
This topic has passed, and Bai Feng, whose mind is getting more and more confused, does not want to continue to talk here, but Eggers has no intention of missing tonight's great opportunity, and he is ready to use Bai Feng's drunken awakening to help the Aceni tribe fight for more things.
"Your Excellency, I wonder what form the army of our Esthenic tribe should serve Rome in when it enters the city of Rome, and whether it will all belong to me and obey orders, or will it be scattered and scattered into the service of other Roman legions?"
"General Eggers, you are the military commander of the Aceni tribe, and with your knowledge of the Aceni tribe's army, you tell me, what form do you think your tribe's army should serve us in Rome?"
"Since you have asked me, Your Excellency, I will tell you the truth, and the army of our Aceni tribe is indeed not as good as the existing army of Rome in terms of training, and the effects of yesterday's battle cannot be eliminated so quickly.
Therefore, I personally think that after joining the city of Rome, the army of our Essini tribe should temporarily form a separate army, so as not to drag down the other legions in the city of Rome or affect the internal relations of other legions, and wait for the soldiers to get along well in the future before considering the merger. ”
Eggers's idea of arranging the Essini tribe's army was well thought out when he heard it, but unfortunately such an idea was contrary to Bai Feng's idea, but Bai Feng did not intend to deny Eggers immediately, but continued to ask with a smile:
"Oh, is it true, General Eggers, that you may not be unreasonable, so tell me what it means to be alone, to form a new Roman legion of your tribe's army, or to separate all your armies from the army of the city of Rome?"
Bai Feng smiled and said the words, but it made Eggers, who had other plans, feel an indescribable throbbing, and after careful consideration, Eggers, who was bent on thinking about the Essini tribe, still put aside this throbbing and replied stubbornly:
"The army of our Aceni tribe has joined the city of Rome and has become the army of the city of Rome, so how can it be separated from the army of the city of Rome? I mean to form the army of our Aceni tribe into a new legion, and let this new legion serve the city of Rome.
In addition, General Nelson's mobile troops can also be under the command of this new legion, so that a strong army can be created for the city of Rome and open up territory for the outward expansion of the city of Rome!"
"Hahahaha, okay!" Hearing Eggers' strong answer, Bai Feng, who had been squinting and leaning on the chair, suddenly opened his eyes, laughed and praised Eggs, and Bai Feng sat up straight.
"I am personally grateful that General Eggers can think so much about our city of Rome, but I have a different idea here, and I wonder what General Eggers thinks of this idea.
When the 17,000 soldiers of the Aesini tribe arrive in Rome, the 10,000 warriors with the strongest fighting power will be selected to form a new legion, with General Eggers as the commander, responsible for commanding this legion to serve the city of Rome.
Of the remaining 7,000 men, 3,000 were used to replenish the losses of the other three legions in Rome in yesterday's battle, the other 3,000 were added to General Gatus's Cheetah Legion, and the last 1,000 were reused.
As for General Nelson's mobile troops, they are the only large-scale cavalry units in our Roman city, and naturally they cannot belong to any of the three legions, but should be under the personal command of my governor's palace.
And you heard General Nelson's ambition just now, the current mobile force is the future Roman spear corps of our city of Rome, I can't let one legion belong to another, General Eggers, what do you think?"
Looking at Bai Feng sitting in his seat with bright eyes, Eggers knew in his heart that his wishful thinking tonight had failed, but he couldn't show any dissatisfaction, so he had to force a smile and say to Bai Feng against his will:
"Since His Excellency the Governor already has a detailed plan in mind, then I won't interfere much, we still have to listen to your arrangement for these things, but I don't know what kind of name His Excellency the Governor is going to give to our new legion?"
"Well, the name, our city of Rome already has the Cheetah Legion and the Tiger Legion, then your legion will be called the Eagle Legion! I hope that with the existence of the Eagle Legion, our Roman city can be like a tiger with wings and become more powerful and powerful!"
"Eagle Legion?" whispered two sentences in his mouth, and Eggers's eyes suddenly burst with a strong fighting spirit, compared to the deceit at the negotiation table, he is still the general who wants to dominate the battlefield after all!
