The facts in front of Bai Feng's eyes proved that the Shadow Killer, who was also a fourth-level experience, was far superior to the battlefield ghost who was once highly valued by Bai Feng in terms of combat effectiveness, and of course, this was also related to the Shadow Killer's special combat skills.

According to Bai Feng's observations, the Shadow Slayer's combat style is more inclined to nimble dodge and then seize the opportunity to deliver a fatal blow to the opponent, while the Battle Ghost combat style is more inclined to close combat, and the speed is not as fast as the Shadow Slayer.

These two completely different fighting methods led to the result that the ghosts of the battlefield were defeated by the Shadow Killer, and of course, there was another factor that Bai Feng had to consider, that is, Ivan's combat power was actually far beyond that of ordinary Shadow Killers.

The first spellcaster, Webster, and the first battlefield ghost, Adrian, both possess more powerful combat power and improvement potential than ordinary spellcasters and battlefield ghosts, and based on the facts of the past, Bai Feng has reason to believe that Ivan's combat power is also better than that of ordinary shadow killers.

Even so, Ivan, who was able to defeat three battlefield ghosts at the same time effortlessly, still represents the strength of the Shadow Slayers, not to mention that the real strength of the Shadow Slayer does not lie in the face-to-face combat.

From Bai Feng's first glance at Ivan, to the concealment of Ivan's own breath, and finally to the display of Ivan's own fighting style, this series of things can make Bai Feng see the greatest value of the shadow killer class very simply and clearly.

As the name suggests, the Shadow Killer is a special class of troops specially used for assassination and secret warfare;

The first Shadow Killer to be recruited is Ivan, and Ivan will also become the commander of all the Shadow Killers in Rome City in the future; there are still thirteen recruitment slots left this month, and Bai Feng did not hesitate to give nine of them to the Shadow Slayer.

As for the last four remaining places, after just a little thought, Bai Feng decided to use them to recruit four teams of Roman auxiliary cavalry, because after the sixteen teams of Roman heavy infantry were recruited, the two core legions of Roman City were still missing, that is, fourteen teams of Roman auxiliary cavalry.

These fourteen teams of Roman auxiliary cavalry will be recruited sooner or later, as long as the recruitment quota of Roman City is sufficient, Bai Feng does not mind recruiting these Roman auxiliary cavalry as soon as possible, so that Licinius and Antio's legions can also form combat effectiveness as soon as possible.

Class: Roman auxiliary cavalry

Capacity: 108

Experience: Level 0

Recruitment/Maintenance Cost: 470G/170G

Armament: round shield, javelin

Features: Can form a circular cavalry formation and move quickly

From the attributes of this Roman auxiliary cavalry, Bai Feng can know that the so-called Roman auxiliary cavalry is actually a kind of javelin cavalry similar to the Numidian javelin cavalry, which belongs to a kind of bow cavalry.

Although the javelinmen and archers belonged to the same group of archers, the archers were much stronger than the javelinmen in terms of combat effectiveness, and the Parthian archers were more than a step stronger than the Roman auxiliary cavalry in terms of the existing cavalry in the Roman city.

But the crux of the matter is that the only systematic troops that can be recruited on a large scale in the city of Rome are the troops of the Roman faction, and there are no archers in all the arms of the Roman faction, and it is impossible to form archers such as the Parthian archers on a large scale.

The helpless reality forced Bai Feng to attach a certain number of Roman auxiliary cavalry to the establishment of the core legion, so as to strengthen the cavalry strength and comprehensive combat effectiveness of the core legion; after all, the combat effectiveness of the javelin cavalry was still good.

Compared with the pure light cavalry of the Roman light cavalry, the Roman auxiliary cavalry could always use their own javelins to give the enemy one or even several rounds of javelin strikes before engaging the enemy, you know, the javelin is much more lethal than the bow and arrow.

After all the special training and recruitment matters were taken care of, Bai Feng no longer needed to focus on military affairs this month, which also gave him enough time to think about how to adjust the future development strategy of the city of Rome.

Previously, under the premise of not knowing the role of special training in the military architecture of the city of Rome, the future development strategy of the city of Rome designated by Bai Feng was very conservative, and it was also a strategy that mainly focused on recuperation and steady development.

Now with the existence of special training with extremely powerful military buildings, the army of Roman City, with barbarian warriors as the main force, can raise its combat effectiveness to a very terrifying level in a very short period of time, which is a fact that Bai Feng can affirm.

As long as the other field legions in Rome except for the Lion Legion can complete the special training, the overall combat effectiveness of the Roman army will increase by leaps and bounds, and at that time, the city of Rome will naturally have the military strength to continue to expand outward.

In this way, Bai Feng's original strategy of not expanding outward before returning to the Celestial Dragon Empire was too conservative; Rome City, with its strong military strength, could completely eliminate the external hidden dangers of the force before Bai Feng returned to the Celestial Dragon Empire!

Of course, what Bai Feng wanted here to completely eliminate the external hidden dangers of the power of Roman City was not to conquer the entire eastern region by force before the end of this year, but to use the powerful military power of Roman City to conquer the southernmost Werther tribe in the eastern region in one fell swoop!

Although the Lucian tribe in the west and the Werther tribe in the south did not have any direct contact with Rome among the four major powers that existed in the east, this did not mean that Rome's enemies were only the eastern alliance in the north.

The Eastern Alliance, which had already met Rome on the battlefield, was the mortal enemy of Rome on the surface, while the Lucy tribe and the Werther tribe were the potential enemies of Rome to unify the eastern region in the future, especially the Werther tribe in the south, and the military threat to Rome was even more serious!

The presence of the main stream and the tributaries of the left flank, as well as the strong fleet strength of the Roman city, made it impossible for the eastern alliance in the north and the Lucian tribe in the west to take the initiative to attack the forces of the city of Rome, because their armies could not cross the Cangluo River blockaded by the Roman fleet.

Therefore, as long as the fleet of the city of Rome can firmly control the Cangluo River, the Eastern Alliance and the Luxi tribe will always be at a disadvantage in the confrontation with the city of Rome, and the Witt tribe will have a clear advantage in comparison.

The Werther tribe, which was divided in two by the Cangluo River, was connected to the west of the Cangluo River, where the city of Rome was located, and to the east of the Cangluo River, where the main strength was located, was connected to the kingdom of Aceni, a vassal of the Roman city.

With such a special geographical location, the most advantageous fleet in Rome City can only completely divide the Werther tribe into east and west at most, but it cannot fundamentally eliminate the military threat of the Werther tribe to the power of Rome City, which is what Bai Feng has always been most worried about.
