- Nikos Kazanzakis (Greek politician, writer, poet)

The city of Rome is only half a day's journey from the Cangluo River, Bai Feng led the army from Rome City in the morning, and arrived at the west bank of the Cangluo River at noon; because the Parthian archers had already found the place where the cavalry of the Acenian tribe had repeatedly frequented, so the army of the Roman city naturally wanted to establish the corresponding general camp opposite the army of the Acenian tribe.

After his army began to set up camp, Bai Feng did not stay where he was and waited for the soldiers to build a barracks, but took Antio and his general guards to the banks of the Cangluo River, along with Gatus and Bazel and other generals.

Looking at the turbulent surface of the Cangluo River, Bai Feng has a feeling of standing on the bank of the Yangtze River; you must know that Bai Feng is a native of Jiangcheng, he grew up by the Yangtze River since he was a child, and he is naturally very familiar with the feeling of this big river.

In fact, if you think about it, this Cangluo River originates in the northern grassland north of the Tianlong Empire, flows through half of the northern grassland, and then runs through the entire Tianlong Empire from north to south, and then its main tributaries are all over the eastern part of the barbaric land, and even crosses the Sunset Mountains, which are impossible for humans to cross, and flows all the way to the Orc Empire further east.

Such a winding river with a wide basin, not to mention the Yangtze River that Bai Feng had witnessed with his own eyes, it is impossible for any major river in the world to have such a vast river basin, no wonder the Aisini tribe is so difficult to expand westward!

The reason why the powerful Escini tribe has never been able to successfully expand westward is that they cannot transport enough troops to the west bank of the Cangluo River at one time, and if they can land on the west bank of the Cangluo River at one time and give an army of 180,000, let alone one Bazel, even a hundred Bazel will not be able to reach the thousands of troops of the Essini tribe!

In any case, the current Cangluo River has indeed become a natural barrier for the Roman city, and under the premise that the Aceni tribe army cannot land on the west bank of the Cangluo River on a large scale, Bai Feng has absolute confidence that the Aceni tribe will collapse the Cangluo River again!

The proud Bai Feng suddenly knocked the war horse under his seat with the star falling dragon gun in his hand, and the war horse that felt the master's intentions immediately galloped wildly, and the hair that was over Bai Feng's shoulders fluttered in the wind, and the entourage generals behind Bai Feng wanted to speed up to catch up with him, but Yue'er on the side stretched out his hand to signal everyone not to disturb Bai Feng to ride a horse alone.

Immediately, Yue'er also rode after Bai Feng, Bazel and Gatus both joined the city of Rome later, they didn't know the relationship between Bai Feng and Yue'er, but the fact that Yue'er and Bai Feng both lived in the Doge's Palace was enough for them to understand what to do.

As for Licinius and Antio, they have no affiliation with Yue'er, but they are loyal generals who have followed Bai Feng to fight in another world for more than ten years, and they know more about some of Bai Feng's habits than Yue'er.

For example, in the current situation, Licinius and Antio knew that they didn't need to catch up at all without Yue'er's signal, they knew that Bai Feng wanted to enjoy the galloping of a horse alone at this moment, rather than slowly moving forward under the escort of everyone.

And Bai Feng's three entourages who follow behind him all day long, they are genuine personnel belonging to the Roman city system, Yue'er's order is equivalent to Bai Feng's order to them, and they naturally stay in place under Yue'er's instructions.

Yue'er followed Bai Feng all the way forward, and soon the two of them threw off the people behind them far away, Bai Feng, who was having a good time, slowly tightened the reins, and after the war horse slowly stopped, Bai Feng laughed and joked to Yue'er, whose face was slightly red:

"Yue'er, how is it, doesn't it feel very comfortable to gallop like this? You know, this is my favorite way to release myself, I have suppressed myself for half a year for the survival and development of the city of Rome, and now I can finally relax!"

"Are you really sure about winning this war? The Aceni tribe on the east bank of the Cangluo River is not the existence of the Tasya tribe, their strength is countless times stronger than the Tasya tribe, where did you get so much confidence?"

"Yue'er, you think that the Aceni tribe is too powerful, they are at most more than ten times stronger than the current Tasya tribal alliance, and that is still the strength of the Aceni tribe in its heyday thirteen years ago.

After five years of war and eight years of internal strife, the current Essini tribe is far from being as strong as you think, and even the strength of the individual forces of the Aceni tribe after the division is not necessarily much stronger than our Roman city.

More importantly, as long as the natural barrier of the Cangluo River exists, the Essini tribe will not be able to send their entire army from the east bank to our west bank, otherwise how could Bazel resist the five-year invasion of the Essini tribe on the west bank of the Cangluo River?

At that time, the Aceni tribe was the most powerful in its heyday, and only the first round of vanguard invasion could send 30,000 elite warriors, and in the next five years, more than 100,000 elite warriors were killed.

And the Esini tribe forces that are about to fight us, can their entire strength be 100,000 troops? Since Bazel was able to annihilate the 30,000 troops of the Acenian tribe with 7,000 warriors, can't the more than 20,000 elites of our Roman city do it?

I was really worried about this war until the city of Rome had completed the conquest of the six tribes of Bazel, but since we in Rome received the surrender of Bazel, the victory of this war has been in our pockets!"

"Well, you know a lot more about things like war than I do, but I still don't understand one thing, since you already have the chance of winning this war, why do you go to such lengths to formally form a legion and lead the army yourself?"

"Because the Aceni tribe is only a modest enemy in our city of Rome, and we will face many more powerful enemies in the future, and before we face those truly powerful enemies, I will build a lion for the city of Rome that will be able to dominate the world!

The current war is just the baptism of the three legions of our Roman city, and after this war is over, our Roman city will have more opportunities, and our army will face more challenges, they must grow up as soon as possible.

The reason why I want to lead the army myself is because the army under the command of Bazel and Gatus is still a long way from being truly integrated into our Roman city, and this road must be personally guarded by me!"
