"Chapter 10: The Upcoming Expedition: V"

Once you have been able to experience at some point that the source of creation is within you, and thus focus the whole on yourself, then your opportunity to rewrite your own destiny has come.

Before leaving to return to Rome City, Bai Feng also deliberately took the time to go to the Thundercloud Base; when Bai Feng left the Thundercloud Base, the equipment manufacturing center in the Thundercloud Base could forge 8,000 sets of Roman Youth Army standard weapons and equipment every month.

After this small half a year of development, the output of weapons and equipment in the Thundercloud Equipment Manufacturing Center has increased from 8,000 to 9,000 sets, but the number of weapons and equipment they hand over to Lister Ster every month is still the same as the original 8,000 sets.

The extra 1,000 sets of weapons and equipment were directly requisitioned by Paresi, the commander of the Thundercloud Guard, with Hess's consent, and the Thundercloud Guard, which was full of 20,000 soldiers, was indeed inferior in terms of weapons and equipment, and Bai Feng himself knew this.

Moreover, merit is meritorious and demeritorable, meritorious service must be rewarded and punished, and it has always been the basic principle of Bai Feng's royal majesty, and it is impossible for anyone to let Bai Feng violate his principles.

After careful consideration, Bai Feng decided to send the New Year's red envelopes and title deeds he had prepared to Hess and Paresi as usual, and then, Hess and Paresi were personally ordered by Bai Feng to hang on the base square and whip fifty lashes as punishment because of their unauthorized decisions!

After punishing Hess and Paresi, who made their own decisions, Bai Feng, who knew that Hess and Pareshi had good intentions, personally ordered that Hess be allowed to provide only 8,000 sets of weapons and equipment to Lister every month, and the remaining weapons and equipment would be given priority to the refitting of the Thundercloud Guard.

In fact, this is the helplessness of the superiors, it is obviously just a big or small matter, but because it involves the problem of trespassing, it must be dealt with seriously; Bai Feng, who does not want to trouble and delay time, has to waste half a day in order to maintain his authority.

After dealing with the trivial matters in the thundercloud base, Bai Feng, who no longer delayed, rode his horse into a small forest where no one was found, and took Bai Yi and other personal guards to return to Rome City with the teleportation array in his white spirit ring.

After returning to Rome, the first thing that caught Bai Feng's eyes were the 50,000 Essini soldiers and 70,000 Lucy soldiers who had completed the change of clothes of the whole army, and the 120,000 majestic barbarian warriors, who were surrounded in groups on the periphery of Rome City, which made people feel depressed involuntarily.

Next to the 120,000 barbarian warriors were the 60,000 soldiers of the Shogunate army of two banner legions; compared with the barbarian warriors who seemed to be free and loose no matter how much they strengthened their management, the shogunate army was more than a step stronger in terms of military posture and military appearance and formation coordination.

However, what made Bai Feng stop his gaze the most was Marcus's Sixth Legion and Luculus's Seventh Legion, as well as Licinius's First Legion;

Even so, the First Roman Legion, as one of the three major synthetic legions in Rome City, still had enough reasons to attract Bai Feng's attention, especially since the other two synthetic legions were not in Rome City, the First Roman Legion was special.

Four Roman infantry wings, one Roman light cavalry brigade, one Roman auxiliary cavalry brigade of system soldiers, three wings of longbowmen, 15,000 barbarian auxiliary warriors, and a fully equipped synthetic legion, with unparalleled super combat effectiveness.

This is still the 15,000 barbarian warriors of the First Auxiliary Legion, and they have not undergone special training; once these 15,000 barbarian warriors have undergone special training and are fully equipped with the sophisticated weapons and equipment of the equipment manufacturing center, their combat effectiveness will be greatly enhanced.

When the time comes, 6,000 specially trained longbowmen and 15,000 specially trained barbarian warriors will become the most powerful assistants to the more than 9,000 Roman soldiers;

Looking at the soldiers of the Roman system, who had been restored to full strength, they were carrying out a new multi-arm combat drill with a wing as a unit, and in addition to a fully formed Roman infantry wing, there was also a longbow company and two auxiliary wings.

Because the soldiers of the auxiliary corps are relatively single, the establishment of the auxiliary corps is also relatively simple, and it is more convenient to directly organize seven auxiliary wings with a full number of 2,000 barbarian warriors and a heavy wing with a full number of 1,000 elite soldiers.

The formation of a heavy wing in the auxiliary legion is an important attempt by Bai Feng to enhance the combat effectiveness of the barbarian army in Roman City; if the heavy wing of the three auxiliary legions performs well, the next four field legions and three phalanx legions will form a heavy wing.

The heavy damage inflicted on Lucy's army by the Hammer Legion not only laid the foundation for the victory of the Roman army in the war, but also allowed Bai Feng to discover the shortcomings of the barbarian warriors, who were accustomed to being lightly armed, were actually no match for the hoplites and hoplites.

The rock-solid defense of the hoplites forming the battle formation was simply impossible for the barbarian warriors to penetrate, and the fierce and invincible attack of the hoplites charging in clusters was something that the barbarian warriors could not resist at all.

Unable to break through the defense of the hoplites, unable to block the attack of the hoplites, this fatal flaw of the barbarian warriors directly made them a vassal force that was difficult to take on the task;

How strong the Holy See's Knights of Light and the Templars are, everyone in the Celestial Dragon Continent knows that a relatively pure heavy cavalry unit similar to the Hammer Legion is not the opponent of the Knights of Light and the Templars at all, and the gap in combat power between the two sides is very large.

The crux of the matter is that the city of Rome, the largest and even the mainstay of the barbarian warrior army, could not withstand the attack of even the most basic heavy cavalry, the Hammer Legion, what could it use against the Knights of Light and the Templars of the Holy See?

As the most powerful force in the Tianlong Continent, the Holy See will sooner or later meet with the ever-expanding and developing Roman City, and at that time, the hundreds of thousands of barbarian warriors possessed by the Roman City can only be reduced to inconsequential cannon fodder on the battlefield?

No! This is definitely not the result that Bai Feng wants to see! Therefore, Bai Feng should take the barbarian warriors who are hard-working, brave and good at fighting, and fierce and warlike as soldiers, and form a heavy army with stronger combat effectiveness, so as to improve the combat effectiveness of the barbarian warriors and give full play to their value!

Obviously, using the barbarian warriors, who had always lacked discipline, to form hoplites with extremely high discipline requirements was a big test for Bai Feng and the barbarian warriors, so the extra thousand barbarian warriors from the three auxiliary legions became the test subjects.
