On a day of misfortune, when memories of joy are a pain that cannot be greater. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

- Alighelli Dante (Italian poet, one of the pioneers of the European Renaissance)

With bursts of fragrant wind and chuckles like silver bells, Yue'er left the restaurant early and went back to her own room, leaving Bai Feng alone in the restaurant to eat dinner, a scene that had never happened in the restaurant before.

Although Yue'er left the restaurant with laughter, Bai Feng could find out from Yue'er's eyes that the moment she told the truth, she couldn't help but reveal a gloomy sadness, which was the most distressing thing for Bai Feng.

After raising the glass in his hand and drinking the blood-red wine in the glass, Bai Feng also strode out of the restaurant and headed towards the council hall, where the three people from the Aceni tribe were waiting for Bai Feng's arrival.

After a night's rest last night, not long after returning to Rome City at noon today, Nelson woke up from a coma from a serious injury; the healing potion possessed by the war doctor Hua Mu is indeed amazing, and Nelson, who was still dying yesterday, can actually get out of bed and walk around after waking up today, and Bai Feng naturally cannot do without him for tonight's meeting.

Walking into the council hall on the second floor, Queen Boudicca and the other three were talking about their Essini tribe inside, and after seeing Bai Feng push the door and walk in, the three immediately stopped talking, and they all stood up to show their respect for Bai Feng.

"Sit down, you all sit down, there is no one else here tonight, and we are friends who don't know each other, so there is no need for so much formality and vulgarity. Bai Feng, who was full of alcohol, was still very sober, and what he said was normal.

However, the three Queen Boudicca didn't really take Bai Feng's politeness as his sincere words, and it wasn't until Bai Feng himself sat down in the first place that they sat back in their original positions, waiting for Bai Feng to start tonight's deliberations.

"General Nelson, there is a special potion of our Roman City to help you heal your wounds, it will only take three days at most for your injuries to heal, and then you will become the general of our Roman City, I hope you can do your best to serve our Roman City!"

Squinting his eyes and glancing at the three people present, Bai Feng said this to Nelson, who was still very pale, as early as when he was in the riverbank barracks, Nelson was persuaded by Queen Boudicca to join the city of Rome.

Before the award ceremony began this afternoon, Eggers, who had reached a deal with Bai Feng, told Nelson in detail about the deal with Nelson, who had come to his senses, and Nelson, who knew everything, also very much agreed with Eggers's approach, so in Nelson's view, there was not much difference between loyalty to the city of Rome or the Aceni tribe.

"Please rest assured, Your Excellency, that when my wounds are healed, I will do my best to serve His Excellency the Governor and the city of Rome, and the six thousand elite cavalry under my command will be the sharpest spear of all the armies of the city of Rome!"

"Well, General Nelson did not disappoint me, I will wait for you and your six thousand cavalry to become the sharpest spears in our Roman city! Originally, I intended to give your cavalry an official regimental number, but now it seems that there is no need.

Starting tomorrow, your cavalry units will use the provisional name of the Mobile Force, and I will keep the name of the Roman Spear for you, and when you have built up enough meritorious deeds and are recognized by all, you will be the Roman Spear Legion of the City of Rome!"

Nelson's sonorous and powerful answer made Bai Feng, who was already a little drunk, even more excited and flushed, and he also said some words of encouragement to Nelson quite impassionedly; After talking about Nelson and his cavalry, Bai Feng turned to Eggers.

"General Eggers, there is enough food for 100,000 people in the warehouses of Rome for a month, and you are ready to ship it back to-morrow, but it is time for you to put into action the matter of the army you promised me, after all, it takes time and energy to form an army.

After you Aceni warriors join us in Rome, we still need to spend a lot of time training them, otherwise they will still not be able to shoulder the heavy responsibilities on the battlefield, and you understand the situation in the barracks today, right?"

"Your Excellency the Governor is right, the total number of warriors that our Aceni tribe still has is about 30,000, and when these grains are transported back to the east bank of the Cangluo River, I will immediately bring 10,000 warriors from our tribe to join the city of Rome and serve you and the city of Rome!"

"Haha, I didn't expect the superficially serious General Eggers to lie! Do you think I don't know how many warriors there are in your Aceni tribe? Do you think I will believe that there are only 30,000 warriors left in your Aceni tribe?

Don't think I don't know anything, I know more than you think! Even if you Escini tribe is separated from us by the Cangluo River in Rome, I don't know about your Escini tribe, I'll tell you what I know!

Not counting the cavalry units of your Essini tribe, the total number of infantry fighters who entered the battle this time was 53,206, of which 6,275 were killed in direct battle with us, 8,976 soldiers died in the Cangluo River, and 8,493 soldiers were captured by our army.

In addition to these fallen and captured warriors, your Essini tribe had 29,465 warriors on the east bank of the Cangluo River, and we later released those captives, so that your Essini tribe now has a total of 37,958 warriors!

General Eggers, this is more than 7,000 more than the 30,000 soldiers you just mentioned, and you are leading an army that has joined our city of Rome not 10,000 people, but more than 17,000 people, don't fool me!"

Watching the drunken Bai Feng say such a single-digit accurate data, the expressions of the three of Eggers and the others were as if they had seen a ghost alive;

Even among the Acenian tribes, only Eggers was the only one who really knew the total number of warriors in the tribe, and this was not before the war, and after the war with the city of Rome, Eggers had not yet had time to count the exact number of casualties and the number of remaining warriors.

Queen Boudicca and Nelson, who were full of confusion, quickly looked at Eggers with their inquiring eyes, and after getting Eggers' difficult nod, the eyes of these three people looking at Bai Feng were completely looking at monsters, which was incredible!

Enjoying the strange eyes of the three people on the other side mixed with shock and adoration, Bai Feng couldn't help but laugh out loud; at this time, Bai Feng shouted in his heart: How can you and other ordinary people understand the existence of the Roman total war system, you can worship me to your heart's content!
