If you love to the point of being hurt, you will find that there is no more hurt, but there is more love.

After Yamashita Yoki, Natsukawa Heiko, and Nishimura Jun left the temporary headquarters, Bai Feng spent a barely quiet night alone, and the reason why it was barely quiet was because there were many occasional screams in the camp that night.

From rescuing the southern rebels of the Luci tribe to replacing them with a new Luxi tribe, this change of identity alone was enough to make too many soldiers and civilians in the southwest of Luxi question Yamashita Yoki, not to mention the establishment of the Luci kingdom, which was a vassal of the city of Rome.

These four words of the Lucy Kingdom are simply unacceptable betrayal to many soldiers and civilians whose ancestors have been Lucy for generations, and in their opinion, the nature of this betrayal is not even inferior to that of the north, which is secretly controlled by the spy forces of the Eastern Alliance!

What is more, they even questioned the formation and expansion of the rebels, and began to examine the rebels themselves with rational ideas; needless to say, the path of the formation and expansion of the rebels, which was full of conspiracy, could not be described as a coincidence.

For those soldiers and civilians who only subconsciously disliked the establishment of the Lucy Kingdom, Yamashita Yoki did his best to persuade and appease them, and while persuading them to agree to the establishment of the Lucy Kingdom, he described to them all the beauty of the Roman city and the experience of the Essini Kingdom.

For those soldiers and civilians who had their own clear ideas and were vehemently opposed to the annexation of the city of Rome and the establishment of the Kingdom of Lucy, whether or not they were aware of the rebels' conspiracy in the process of expansion, they would rather kill Yamashita Yoki by mistake and did not let go, and they did not show mercy from beginning to end.

Yoki Yamashita, who was born as a spy in the shogunate, and Harushi Natsukawa and Nishimura Jun, who were born as shogunate ninjas, all of their apparent pathos are disguised, and only those who have seen them know how cold-blooded they are.

The whole night of liquidation and strangulation made at least 3,000 rebel soldiers and their families of nearly 10,000 people become a stepping stone for the birth of the Lucy Kingdom, and the reason why Yamashita Yoki killed them was that they secretly colluded with the Eastern Alliance spy forces to betray the Lucy Kingdom!

Yes, Yamashita Yoki used the new term Lucy Kingdom with great fanfare that night, and in front of Yamashita Yoki, who had absolute strength, except for those who understood that were liquidated, everyone else made their own wise choice.

Early the next morning, the huge coronation ceremony kicked off with the full busyness of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians, and the not cumbersome coronation ceremony soon entered a critical moment, as the governor of the city of Rome, Bai Feng personally put a crown on the head of Yangxi at the head of the mountain on the coronation platform.

When the huge camp sounded with the cheers of "Long live the Kingdom of Lucy, long live the King of Lucy", the Kingdom of Lucy, which was listed as one of the two barbarian vassal kingdoms of Rome along with the Kingdom of Esini in the future, was officially established!

Yesterday, Yamashita Yoki did not use the deliberate deployment, but today it was brought to good use by Xia Chuan Heigong and Nishimura Jun; the planned guidance and organized cooperation, the oath of allegiance of 30,000 foreign troops and 70,000 internal troops directly pushed the atmosphere of the coronation ceremony to the peak.

Because Bai Feng's standard for Nishimura Jun and Xia Chuan Pinggong was that the foreign army should not exceed 30,000 and the internal army should not be less than 50,000, so Nishimura Jun selected 30,000 elite rebel soldiers to form a foreign army, and Xia Chuan Pinggong left all the remaining soldiers.

Although Bai Feng and Yamashita Yoki have been describing the army and population of the Luxi Kingdom with millions of soldiers and civilians, the actual ruling area only includes the Luxi Kingdom in the southwest of Luxi, and the number of troops and the population combined do not reach one million.

Even the few settlements in the southwest of Luxi that have not yet been conquered by the rebels will be included in the rule of the Lucy Kingdom in the future, and the total number of soldiers and civilians in the Lucy Kingdom is only about 850,000, and it is impossible to even have 900,000 soldiers and civilians.

Of course, the size of the army, the number of warriors, and the population of the people of the Lucy Kingdom are indeed more than a step stronger than the Essini Kingdom of Queen Boudicca, and the only thing that makes Bai Feng dissatisfied is that the overall loyalty of the Lucy Kingdom to the city of Rome is too low!

Rome vassal power attribute table

Vassals: Essini Kingdom (Rich) / Lucy Kingdom (Normal)

Region: Savage Lands East (Aceni)/Savage Lands East (Lucy)

Faction Leader: Queen Boudicca (High Senior Swordsman, Aceini) / King Yoki Yamashita (Fourth Rank Spy Lucy)

Influence Population: 646579 (Ethini) / 638649 (Lucy)

Force Strength: 90,764 Warriors (Ethini) / 126486 Warriors (Lucy)

Forces: 65,000 soldiers (Ethini) / 100,000 soldiers (Lucy)

Force Loyalty: 100 (Essini)/48 (Lucy)

Originally, the Roman city had only one vassal power of the Aceni Kingdom, but after the addition of the Lucy Kingdom, the attribute table of its vassal forces immediately changed;

However, there are still several settlements in the southwest of Luxi where more than 200,000 soldiers and civilians have not been included in the Lucy Kingdom's sphere of influence, and when Gregory's army besieging the Kirkwall camp is annihilated, the population and number of warriors in the Lusi Kingdom will inevitably increase by leaps and bounds.

At that time, the main data such as the power population, force strength, and power army of the Lucy Kingdom will definitely greatly throw off the Essini Kingdom; if it weren't for the fact that the loyalty of the Lucy Kingdom's forces is too low, this is a thing that makes Bai Feng's heart flutter.

Compared with the Essini Kingdom, which had already entered a bottleneck stage of development, the newly born Lucy Kingdom was undoubtedly more dynamic, and after the war, as long as the trade between the city of Rome and the Lucie Kingdom was carried out smoothly, the further prosperity of the Lucy Kingdom was just around the corner.

Once the Luci Kingdom achieves its own economic rise and food independence with the help of the city of Rome, as well as the urbanization that symbolizes civilization, the Acenian Kingdom, which lacks development potential, will be completely overtaken by the Luci Kingdom, and this is not the result that Bai Feng wants to see.

From the point of view of the city of Rome, the kingdom of Esceni was the first vassal of the city of Rome (the tribe of Tasia, which no longer existed), and for the sake of setting an example, the city of Rome should not allow the kingdom of Luci to completely surpass the kingdom of Aceni.

From Bai Feng's personal point of view, Queen Boudicca of the Essini Kingdom is a woman who has had a skin-to-skin relationship with him, and King Yamashita Yoki of the Lucy Kingdom is just a shogunate spy who he supports on the throne.

In view of this, after the war, the support of the Roman city to the Aceni Kingdom will be greatly increased again; according to Bai Feng's plan, all the cannon fodder, the old, weak, women and children captured in the war of the Eastern Alliance will be relocated to the Aceni Kingdom as civilians after the war.

In this way, the population of the Acenian Kingdom will be equal to that of the Lucy Kingdom, and in the era of cold weapons, the population can be the most significant manifestation of a country's overall strength, and it is also the most direct and fundamental factor influencing a country's development potential.

The Aceni Kingdom, whose population is not inferior to the Lucy Kingdom, will naturally not be weaker than the Aceni Kingdom in the future, and as for which of them will win more support and assistance from the Roman City, it will depend on the performance of their two kingdoms themselves.
