"Chapter 124: Pacifying the Followers"

I think that's how most people's lives end, adopting attitudes to fit into the work and life defined by others, and finally becoming rigid because of those attitudes.

—Naipaul (West Indian writer, travelogue writer, and social critic)

The Roman youth army, which had succeeded in plotting, reduced the number of their opponents from more than 3,700 to 3,300, and in this way, the Roman youth army had a numerical advantage, outnumbering the enemy by more than 200 soldiers.

The fierce confrontation between the 22 Roman youth army and the 3,300 Lucy warriors on the flank of the main battlefield of the two armies actually did not last long, and the Lucy soldiers, who had suffered two heavy losses, were more than a star and a half worse in morale and combat strength than the Roman youth army.

Under the personal command of Marcus, the commander of the Sixth Roman Legion, the soldiers of the Roman Youth Army, who were highly motivated, launched a fierce attack on the enemy.

In the face of the fierce Roman youth army, the loose Lucy warriors, even if they were willing to fight to the death, could not change the reality of their defeat and retreat, and even the Lucy warrior sent by Viriacius became the soul of Marcus's sword!

Marcus, who was guarded by forty-four Roman heavy cavalry, personally led his general guard as the spearhead of the attack, and rushed into the loose enemy army, and after a few back and forth, the already scattered Lucian army was neatly divided into several pieces.

The Roman youths, who followed closely behind Marcus and completed the division and encirclement of the enemy army, took advantage of the situation to start a strangulation of the enemy troops who were fighting separately, and the Lucy warriors, who fought to the death, resisted for half an hour with their blood, and finally declared their annihilation.

When the last of the Lucian warriors, who had suffered more than a dozen wounds, fell, the Roman youth soldiers with their hands free, led by Marcus, swooped down on the flank of Lucy's army, this time with no spare troops to cover his flank.

The Roman youth army, which had no more than 300 casualties, went straight to the flank of Lucy's central army, and instantly attracted the attention of at least 7,800 Lucy warriors; as soon as the direction of attack of these 7,800 warriors was adjusted, the pressure on the central army of the Roman army naturally decreased sharply.

Aldington, the adjutant general of the Fifth Roman Legion, who commanded the army independently for the first time, was still a little nervous when he first took command, but as time went on and the battle continued, the apprehension and uneasiness in his heart had long been thrown out of the clouds.

Aldington, who had an extremely keen tactical vision, immediately commanded the entire army to turn defense into attack after Marcus led the Roman youth army into the enemy's flank, and launched a comprehensive counterattack against the scattered and chaotic enemy army!

The Roman youth army and the Roman heavy infantry, with a total strength of less than 10,000 men, were first evenly matched with more than 50,000 Lucy warriors, but now they have gradually gained the upper hand;

As the leader of the Lucy tribe, Viriasius still knows very well the combat power of the Lucy warriors, and objectively speaking, the Lucy warriors, who have always been known for their elite, are among the top three among all the tribal warriors in the eastern region of the Wasteland.

In Viriasius's opinion, even if there are warriors from other tribes, whose combat power is no worse than the warriors of his own tribe, it is absolutely impossible to surpass the warriors of his own tribe, but the current battle shows that the enemy's combat power is obviously superior to his own warriors, how is this possible?!

Viriacius, who is still calm on the surface, has what kind of turbulent waves he has in his heart, which is unknown to outsiders.

While the army of Luquis and the army of Viriacius were engaged in a fierce battle, the Roman army led by Bai Feng himself was only one step away from the battlefield, in fact, as early as the flank battle broke out, Bai Feng's army was already on the edge of the battlefield.

And the reason why Bai Feng has not led the army to attack is mainly because the time has not come, the main force of Lucy's army under the command of Viriacius is still there, and if he joins the battle in a hurry, although he can end the battle as soon as possible, it will also give Viriasius and his remnants a chance to escape.

Although there is no place for Viriasius and his remnants in the huge eastern region, Bai Feng really doesn't want to waste time on this war, so he wants to take this opportunity to annihilate the army under Viriacius in one fell swoop and complete the unification of the eastern region!

The waiting time always passed slowly, and Luculus, the captain of the Seventh Roman Legion, and Leonidas, the commander of the Spartan legion, were both battle-hardened Roman generals, so they were naturally accustomed to this kind of waiting.

However, Maxi and Darnell, who commanded the army as commanders for the first time, became a little impatient while waiting, and it happened that the number of soldiers under their command was not large, so they came to Bai Feng's side together.

"My lord, General Luquis's army in front has been fighting with the enemy for a long time, when will we join the war?"

"Darnell, it's only been less than an hour, can't you wait?" Bai Feng, who was sitting on the war horse, asked him with a smile: "Do you remember what I taught you at the beginning?

Darnell, who could feel that Bai Feng was in a good mood, did not retreat because of Bai Feng's teaching, he sighed silently, and explained with a wry smile: "Lord, Maxi and I are really not generals, you know this. ”

"Yes, it is precisely because you are not a great general that I have trained you in the direction of a general. Bai Feng, who was in a good mood because the war was going well, smiled at the two people with sad faces: "Otherwise, do you think you can be as easy as you are now?"

"But, my lord. Maxi wondered, "With our qualifications, can we really become the warrior you expect?"

"Why can't it?" After perceiving the lack of confidence of his two personal retinues, Bai Feng gently encouraged them: "You are my personal retinue, I believe that you can become excellent generals, do you question my vision?"

"The last will not dare!" said Maxi and Darnell, who had learned to call themselves newly, with great trepidation.

"Since you don't dare, then do it well, don't let me down!" Bai Feng, whose eyes were burning, stared at them and said, "As the city of Rome grows stronger and stronger, it is impossible to be just an ordinary entourage who can always follow me; ”

"Obey the teachings of the Lord!" Maxi and Darnell, who suddenly came to their senses, finally understood Bai Feng's good intentions at this moment.

Looking at the distant backs of Maxi and Darnell, Bai Feng, who had other plans in his heart, was already thinking about how to train more generals and system generals;

To this day, Bai Feng's retinue is only five people, among them, the war doctor Hua Mu is a non-combat retinue, and the barbarian slave Bai Sheng is a natural brainless reckless man, and the objects that can be cultivated by Bai Feng are indeed limited.

Unless, there can be more systematic retinues, but how easy is it to be born with systematic retinues? You don't see, there are already more than 20 system generals in Rome City, and the system retinue is still five more than two years ago; in more than two years, the number of system retinues has not increased!
