A compassionate person cannot respond to you with enthusiasm, he is not cold, but he is indifferent, light and warm, but not yet hot.

- Osho (Founder of Rajnesh Ashram)

The promotion of Luquis, Vipsani, Antio, Vimina, and Luculus was carried out in front of Bai Feng's eyes, and their names naturally appeared in the Roman holy rank, but it was the shogunate general Goto Kiji, whose promotion surprised Bai Feng.

Since he was recruited, Goto Kiji, who had been following Bai Feng in the southern and northern wars of the Tianlong Empire, remained in the grasslands north of the northern frontier of Tianlong at this moment, and the 18,000 soldiers of the shogunate battalion under his command were even more of an elite division with outstanding achievements.

Because the shogunate generals also belong to the category of system generals, and the improvement of the strength of system generals is also directly related to their accumulation of combat experience, so, in Bai Feng's view, Goto Kiji's promotion is due to this.

Bai Feng, who had not slept all night, was dealing with the affairs of the expedition of the army, and at the same time gave an account to Luquis and Vipsani, and in the days when Bai Feng left the city of Rome on his own expedition, Luquis would be fully responsible for the departure of the other four armies and the implementation of the battle plan.

The food and grass materials needed for the expedition and the handling of the government affairs of the Roman city are still Vipsani's own work; in addition, Bai Feng also deliberately left a task for Vipsani, that is, to invest more material and financial resources to help the Aceni Kingdom build a royal city.

The city of Rome, which has limited human resources, has extremely abundant material and financial resources, which have little effect on the city of Rome, which has entered the bottleneck of development, but have a significant effect on the Esconic Kingdom, which is still in a period of rapid development.

Bai Feng, who has just brought Queen Boudicca into the harem, has to make his women live better, and the best way to make Queen Boudicca's life better is undoubtedly to increase the assistance of the city of Rome to the Aceni Kingdom and help the Aceni Kingdom to increase its development speed.

Vipsani's outstanding performance in aiding the kingdom of Esini convinced Bai Feng that he could do a good job, and even if Bai Feng did not tell him what happened to him with Queen Boudicca, he could grasp the right amount of assistance.

At dawn, Bai Feng first asked Leonidas, Licinius and other legion commanders who were about to lead the army to gather their co-captains, and then he came to the warehouse area of the city of Rome alone.

After coming to the warehouse area, Bai Feng used two-thirds of the space of the empty Bai Ling Ring to hold food, and one-third of the space to store the weapons and equipment in reserve, which Bai Feng had prepared for the 'rebel army' in the south of Luxi.

After the commanders of the four expeditionary legions came to the warehouse area with their respective co-captains, Bai Feng asked each co-captain to use their space rings to load the food and grass needed by all the soldiers of their respective wings for half a year.

Bai Feng, who can use the treasury funds to buy a space ring in the market, has a space ring for every general at the rank of captain and above of the legion in Rome City, and this move is no less effective than the special training of the system to improve the combat effectiveness of all legions in Rome City!

On the premise that there is not much difference in the combat effectiveness of the two armies, the battle between the two armies is not so much a confrontation between the two armies as a battle between the two armies in a logistical battle; this is a well-known military common sense, and it is also an essential contest of the overall strength of the two countries under the surface of battlefield fighting.

In a real war, even if the army has enough food, it will require them to pay for it, because food from the rear must be transported and consumed for a long time to reach the front.

The value of popularizing the Space Ring for Wing Commander-level generals is that the army of Rome can completely get rid of the dependence of the army on food in the rear and fight a war that does not need to think about logistics, which is the combat environment that any army in any era dreams of!

After all the Wing Captains filled their space rings with food, Bai Feng asked the four Legion Commanders to fill their respective space rings with emergency food and spare weapons and equipment, so that the army would no longer have logistical pressure during the expedition!

After personally leaving the city of Rome with the four legion commanders and the captains of the wings, and coming to the military camp outside the city, Bai Feng found that Luquis had given him a 'surprise'; the first, second, and seventh Roman legions, which should have been missing, were all in a state of full strength.

The full strength of these three Roman legions means that the shortage of the other four Roman legions will be even more serious, but fortunately, the systematic recruitment of Roman City has been going on, and Bai Feng, who is unwilling to delay any longer, has not said much.

Three full-fledged Roman legions plus one full-fledged Spartan legion, the number of soldiers following Bai Feng on the expedition reached more than 57,000 people, and if you count the 5,000 Tuntian soldiers who served as supplementary soldiers, the total strength of Bai Feng's army would be as high as 62,000!

The army of more than 62,000 soldiers was only a standing army under Bai Feng's command, and in addition to the regular troops, Bai Feng also had five Flame Sword Saints by his side, and two teams of scythe chariots and two teams of war elephants composed of secret trump cards.

After the swaying of more than 62,000 soldiers marched all the way down the wide, straight and straight avenue to the Roman port, the officers and men of the various legions began to board the transport ships that had been prepared yesterday in an orderly manner.

From the Roman port to the southwestern part of Lu, hundreds of transports, escorted by twelve double-lined ships and twelve three-columned ships, reached their destination in only five days, but it was not easy for the large landing force to disembark them all.

The last time the spies and ninjas landed, their total number was only 600, and they only needed to use a dozen small rafts to make a few more round-trips, but this time, the landing of more than 62,000 soldiers was much more difficult.

In particular, the war elephants and chariots with limited mobility risk falling into the Cangluo River if they were not careful, and it was impossible to successfully land on rafts and the like, so the soldiers of the First Roman Legion who were the first to land would shoulder the heavy responsibility of building a temporary port.

Constructing a makeshift temporary harbor for two or three transports to berth at the same time was not a difficult task for the Roman youth army and Roman light infantry who came from the ranks of the system, and the Roman legionnaires were known for their knowledge of architecture.

What's more, Bai Feng, who had been prepared for a long time, specially asked the captain of the first wing of the First Roman Legion to bring two space rings, one containing the military rations needed by the soldiers of the first wing for half a year, and the other containing the wood and ropes needed to build a temporary port.

After about four hours of work, a rudimentary but effective temporary harbor was erected, and the ships that had been lined up to land immediately began to land in batches of three.

At about four o'clock in the morning on the 7th of October, the extremely slow landing finally ended, and the army of more than 62,000 people, including two teams of chariots and two war elephants, all landed on the land of the Lucian tribe, and for the first time raised the banner of the city of Rome on the north shore!

Two years ago, the city of Rome on the south bank of the Cangluo River had been unified, and two years later it had set foot on the land on the north bank of the Cangluo River for the first time.
