- Niccolò Machiavelli (Italian political thinker and historian)

Using all the gold reserves of the city of Rome to solve the most difficult problem of tuntian was the only best solution that Bai Feng came up with in desperation, whether it was good or bad, at least the problem was solved.

Simpson, who had just returned to Rome, once again led his cavalry to the towns with boxes of gold coins, and at the same time, the six newly recruited town militia teams also went to their town guards to complete the town guards.

With these five fully manned town guards sitting in the five small towns of Rome City, Bai Feng could completely rest assured that he was behind him, with the old and weak women and children in those towns and the few young and strong people, he couldn't toss any big storms at all.

Not to mention the combat effectiveness of the five Tuntian legions, that is, the town guards stationed in each town, it is not something that a small-scale barbarian can deal with; after all, they are all the systematic army of Roman City, and their combat effectiveness should not be underestimated.

In fact, Licinius, the commander of the First Legion, disapproved of sending the Roman Youth Army, the strongest type of troops that the city could recruit at the moment, to garrison the towns, believing that it would be a waste of the city's limited number of troops.

But he didn't tell Bai Feng his opinion directly, because he would never oppose any order given by Bai Feng, even if he knew that the order was wrong, he would not hesitate to carry it out, this is Licinius's loyalty to Bai Feng.

The reason why Bai Feng was able to know what was in Licinius's mind was because of a drunken gaffe from Licinius; frankly speaking, Bai Feng felt that Licinius's idea was still very correct, and he himself felt that it was a waste of the Roman youth army to do so.

Even so, Bai Feng did not intend to transfer the five Roman youth armies from the five town guards, the reason was simple, a stable rear was what the main force of the city of Rome needed most, even if it was worth paying some price.

In the future, after the army of Rome City completely solves the external threat, Bai Feng, who has the main force, will naturally withdraw all the Roman youth troops in the town guard to strengthen the strength of the First Legion.

Bai Feng, as the governor, and Li Cinius, who was the commander of the legion, were in different positions, and their ways of thinking were definitely different; Bai Feng didn't mind that Li Cinius had his own ideas, and he even thought that this would be very beneficial to Li Cini's growth.

As long as Licinius remained loyal to him, Bai Feng never cared about other details, and there was no doubt that Licinius's loyalty to Bai Feng did not need any doubt, and he had always been one of Bai Feng's most trusted generals.

When you think of Licinius, you can't help but think of the First Legion, an elite legion composed of Roman troops, and the longbowmen led by Peris will remain in the First Legion for the rest of the battle.

After the war between the city of Rome and the kingdom of Aceni was over, Bai Feng planned to transfer Peris and his most elite 3,000 longbowmen to the Doge's Guard, which would also be led by Perris, whose record was enough to convince everyone.

The longbowmen who temporarily belonged to the First Legion were also to be divided into other legions, and the First Legion, as a legion with the Roman army as the main force, was sure to have a certain number of longbowmen, but the other barbarian warriors were no longer worthy of it.

At that time, while rapidly increasing the population of Rome City, Bai Feng recruited a large number of troops of various systems to supplement Licinius's First Legion to enhance the combat effectiveness of the First Legion and make the First Legion the most powerful legion in Rome City!

and Antio, who is now the commander of the Doge's Guard, it is too condescending to let him be the commander of the Doge's Guard, and Bai Feng intends to form the Second Legion of Rome City, and Antio is naturally the best choice for the commander of this legion.

At this time, he considered strengthening the first army and forming the second army early, not that Bai Feng was too anxious, but that Bai Feng had to be anxious! Now in the city of Rome, there are too many barbarian warriors who make the value of the Roman system army smaller and smaller, which is not a good thing.

Bai Feng, who is familiar with history, deeply regrets the fall of the Roman Empire on the earth, especially the Western Roman Empire, which inherited Rome itself, which is a more orthodox Roman Empire than the Eastern Roman Empire, who let their capital be in Rome?

However, Rome did not bring a trace of luck to this unfortunate empire, and the brave and warlike Germanic barbarians gradually became the main force of the Western Roman Empire in the long history of the Western Roman Empire, and finally completely destroyed the Western Roman Empire.

Before Attila the Whip of God attacked the Western Roman Empire, King Alaric of the Visigothic Kingdom captured Rome, the capital of the Western Roman Empire, and the city of Rome, which once glorified the entire Mediterranean coast, became a hunting ground for the Visigoths.

Countless Roman senators and aristocrats were executed on the spot, all the streets and squares were strewn with corpses, the splendid royal palace was ablaze, and three days and three nights of looting left Rome, which had been glorious for centuries, a ruined city.

From the capture of Rome by the Visigothic warrior Alaric to the destruction of the Western Roman Empire by the Germanic warrior Odoas, in the past 60 years, the Western Roman Emperor who existed in name only was a puppet in the hands of powerful barbarian leaders.

The ambitious Bai Feng was not willing to be a puppet of anyone, and he could not accept any uncontrolled army, even if the barbarian warriors were loyal to Bai Feng, he needed a stronger Roman army to protect him.

In the world of power, the word loyalty is not so strong, especially since this loyalty also involves different peoples and conquerors and vanquished, and the intricate relationship always makes it difficult for Bai Feng to believe in the loyalty of those barbarian generals.

Maybe those generals will prove everything with their actual actions in the future, but until they prove all this, Bai Feng still has to be vigilant against any potential enemy who can threaten him, regardless of their position.

In ancient and modern times, there has never been a shortage of meritorious men who have been wiped out because of their high merits, and some of these meritorious men are really ambitious, while others are loyal and courageous; but what determines their life and death is not loyalty, but whether they have the ability to rebel.

A person who has no ability to rebel, no matter how ambitious he is, will only laugh it off, and who will have to deal with an ant who does not measure his own strength? A person who has the ability to rebel, no matter how much he has no ambitions, will be jealous of the superior, and this is the gain and loss of power.

When you have access to power that is unimaginable to others, you have to bear the pressure of that power, and any wise king will have many powerful ministers under his command, and how many of these important ministers will rise to the throne by chance?
