- Goldoni (Italian playwright, founder of modern comedy)

Previously, Bai Feng planned to hand over the Lion Legion without a Legion Leader to the newly summoned system generals, but the appearance of Vermina made Bai Feng change this idea, and it was too overkill to let the Iron Wall General Vimina be the leader of the Lion Legion.

With Vermina's talent and ability, he could definitely be the captain of a standard Roman legion, not the worst field legion, and it just so happened that Antio was not a qualified legion, so the second legion could be handed over to Vermyna.

The reason why Bai Feng thinks that Antio is not a qualified legion commander is not because Antio is not capable of commanding a legion, but because Antio is not very suitable to command a Roman legion; in the final analysis, it is caused by Antio's own personality.

With a fiery and impulsive temperament, it is difficult for Antio to command his soldiers in three columns on the battlefield to meet the enemy, and he is more suitable for the commander of an assault force or the commander of a special regiment.

In the end, how to appoint who would be the commander of the Lion Legion, and how to arrange Antio's new position, Bai Feng decided to convene a meeting among the generals of the system, which was attended by only five people, including Licinius, Antio, Perris, Leonidas, and Vermina.

Vipsani, who was in charge of the affairs of the city of Rome, was not called by Bai Feng to attend this meeting, because this meeting was all about military affairs, and he was not a military general, so there was no need to participate in the meeting.

"Licinius, Antio, you all know the identity of General Vermyna, and you know no less about his abilities than I do; now I plan to hand over the Second Legion to General Vermyna, what do you think?"

After the generals sat down in their respective positions, Bai Feng went straight to the point and stated the main purpose of his meeting, but now the commander of the Second Legion was Antio, and Bai Feng still needed to ask his opinion on this matter.

On the surface, Bai Feng was asking about Licinius and Antio, but in fact he was only asking about Antio alone, and Licinius also understood Bai Feng's deep meaning, so he immediately turned his gaze to Antio opposite.

"Governor, if you let other generals of the city of Rome take my place as commander of the legions, I will certainly obey your orders, but I will still be unhappy, for I do not think that those generals are better than me, and they are not qualified to replace me!

I know that I am not as good as General Vermyna, so I am convinced that you will let him take my place, and I believe that the Second Army under his command will be even stronger!"

From the Augustan Empire in the Roman world to the Roman city in this world, it is estimated that the only person who dares to say these things in front of Bai Feng without any scruples is the upright Andro, and the equally impulsive Licinius will not say anything against Bai Feng.

Perhaps, it is Antio's honesty and honesty that is the reason why Bai Feng has always trusted him, because Bai Feng knows in his heart that the truth is as Antio said, he will absolutely obey his orders unconditionally, but he will also say everything if he is dissatisfied in his heart.

Such generals are the most loyal generals; they will not hide their dissatisfaction, nor will they force a hypocritical appearance, and at the same time they dare to vent themselves, they will meticulously carry out orders, this is loyalty!

"Haha, well! Antio, you really didn't disappoint me! From now on, your second legion will be led by General Vermyna;

"This, Governor, I ...... How dare I ......"

"Antio, you are one of my most trusted confidants, are you also going to be hypocritical in front of me? Tell me what kind of troops you want to command; there is only one chance, and if you don't grasp it, you will miss it!"

"Governor, then I'll be straight to the point, when I led the soldiers of the Second Legion to attack the core camp of the Werther tribe, I was particularly envious of the hoplites who were charging in the enemy's ranks, so I wanted to command a charging hoplite army!"

"Heavy cavalry troops?" Hearing Antio say this, Bai Feng silently read it in his heart, and knew why Antio was so hesitant just now; it wasn't that he didn't want to say it directly, but that there were no heavy cavalry troops in Rome City at all!

"Antio, you also know that we don't have any hoplites in Rome at all, and I can't give you less than a thousand hoplites in the guards, but I give you a chance to form a hoplite army.

Starting today, you can find any qualified cavalry from among the captured Werther soldiers, and when you have found 4,000 elite cavalrymen, I will ask the craftsmen of the armor shop to help you create 4,000 sets of armor and vests for the hoplites.

Then let the 4,000 cavalry under your command be transferred to the high-quality horses in the cavalry stables, and conduct special training in the cavalry stables, and if you can get this heavy cavalry unit formed within two months, I will give you the official regiment number!"

"Hehe, Governor, the combat effectiveness of the more than 1,000 cavalry under General Eggers is also good, can I go and choose?"

"You guy's vision is good! That's the essence left over from the bloody battle of the five thousand elite cavalry, but you have spoken, and I will meet your request, and you will take over those cavalry with my orders later, they belong to you!"

"Thank you, Governor!"

Antio, who got what he wanted, seemed to have found a treasure, and his whole face was smiling into a word, but unfortunately, he was so big and thick that he was the ugliest flower in the world!

"Perris, would you be willing if I transferred you from the Doge's Guard to the Lion Legion as Legion?"

"Governor, I'm willing!" Perris, who was still envious of General Vermyna and General Antio, didn't expect that happiness would come to him in the next moment; in the face of Bai Feng's inquiry, he quickly agreed, for fear that Bai Feng would regret it.

"Haha, I promised so without thinking, it seems that my Governor's Guard is not as attractive to you as the Lion Legion!"

Peris's eagerness made Bai Feng, who was in a good mood, also show a smile, and then he opened his mouth to joke about Peris, the generals present were Bai Feng's most trusted generals, and they naturally knew that Bai Feng was joking, and they all laughed.

"Governor, it's not that I don't like the Governor's Guard, I just want to go to the battlefield and sweep away all enemies for the city of Rome and you, the Governor, as long as I can return to the battlefield, not to mention the captain of the Lion Legion, even if I am an ordinary centurion!"

"Okay!Perris, I've handed it over to you for the Lion Legion, and I'm sure you won't let me down!" Perris, whose face turned red, moved Bai Feng with his brave and loyal explanation, and Bai Feng, who was showing his true feelings, also officially announced the appointment with a solemn expression.
