The expansion of the Tuntian Legion and the Town Guard was only the proper meaning of the question, and as long as Bai Feng provided Gamilios and Ward with all the external support necessary for the expansion of the Tuntian Legion and the Town Guard, the expansion of the two armies would proceed smoothly.

On the contrary, the formation of the Eighth Roman Legion was much more complicated than the expansion of the Tuntian Legion and the Town Guard; whether it was the training of 6,000 auxiliary longbowmen, or the recruitment of Roman light infantry, Roman youth army, Roman light cavalry, and other systematic arms, it was not a one-day or one-month achievement.

The systematic units required for the full formation of the Roman legions consisted of 16 teams each of the Roman light infantry, Roman youth army, and Roman light cavalry, and 9 teams of Roman light cavalry and Roman auxiliary cavalry.

In more than two months, it is enough for 6,000 auxiliary longbowmen to train into an army, and at that time, the Eighth Roman Legion specially organized by Bai Feng for Lucas will form a stable combat strength and become another main army in Roman City.

In any case, Lucas is one of the system generals of the city of Rome, and he is also a summoning system general with relatively strong initial strength and ability, and it is not unacceptable to hand over a Roman legion to Lucas on the premise that there will be no problem with loyalty.

For Bai Feng, instead of keeping Lucas by Luques's side and letting Lucas train Lucas into a dominant general little by little, it is better to transfer Lucas away from Lucas and make him a commander with real power who is not too powerful or heavy.

At the beginning, there were only three or four legions in Rome, and any legion commander could be called a high authority, but with the rapid increase in the number of legions, the current real legion commander is no longer a high-ranking existence in Rome.

Vipsani, who handled all the government affairs of the city of Rome, Luquis, who served as the supreme military commander of the city of Rome, and Gamilios, who commanded an army of 185,000 troops, these three people are far more powerful than ordinary army commanders, and they are the real high-ranking and powerful people in the city of Rome at present.

After Gamilios and Ward left, it was almost midnight, and Bai Feng, who was not sleepy, was planning which four legions should be sent to expedition to the Yamato Empire, while waiting for the early morning to come, who made today the last day of November.

Time passed minute by minute, and Bai Feng, who was hovering left and right between the barbarian legions, phalanx legions, and Roman legions, had not yet selected four suitable expeditionary legions, and the new month had quietly arrived.

In the past November, Bai Feng first spent a large amount of money from the state treasury to buy food, then recruited procurators, tax collectors, civil guards, patrol guards for the newly built towns, and finally had to reorganize the casualties of Roman soldiers and specially train the newly formed army.

Although the reorganized casualties need to return to Rome City for a night to be effective, and the barbarian warriors who enter the city's military camps, cavalry stables, and shooting ranges for special training will also need to complete the special training until the end of December, Bai Feng still has to pay these fees first.

Coupled with the already expensive recruitment expenses of the system soldiers and the maintenance expenses of the town affairs officers directly under the city, the expenditure of the treasury funds of the city of Rome in November reached an astonishing 210,000 gold! This is a huge amount of money that Bai Feng, who is so mentally prepared, is shocked that he is shocked!

Fortunately, the monthly treasury income of the city of Rome has been in a state of steady increase, and even if it consumes a huge amount of 210,000 gold a month, the net income of the treasury of Rome in November is still as high as 180,000 gold.

After two or three years of accumulation, the total treasury of Rome has grown to more than four million, and the sufficient reserve of treasury funds has given the ambitious Bai Feng more confidence to do whatever he wants.

Some small vassal tribes that originally belonged to the Lucian tribe, after being occupied by the Roman city in the north of the Lucian tribe and becoming independent in the south as the Lucian kingdom, soon gave up their useless resistance under the command of the Roman army and chose to become a part of the Roman city.

When the people of these small tribes were scattered and divided into the newly established towns, the total population of the forty-five towns directly under the city of Rome reached more than 4,870,000, in stark contrast to the shrinking population of the Yanhuang family.

Although the Uesugi family's attack did not inflict any substantial damage on the Yanhuang family, which had been prepared for a long time, their fierce offensive still caused the Yanhuang family to lose most of the territory in the southern region of the Mutsu Kingdom, and the people in these territories naturally changed hands.

If it weren't for the fact that all the refugees from Ueno Province who migrated to Mutsu Country were relocated to the hinterland and northern regions of Mutsu Province, the attack of the Uesugi family would inevitably cause the Yanhuang family to lose more people.

The consul's residence, which symbolized the city of Rome's entry into the great city stage, has now appeared in the constructible buildings of the Rome city's attribute table, and the cost of 3,200 gold and the construction period of 40 days are really nothing to Bai Feng, who has just destroyed the Eastern Alliance and the Luxi tribe.

The historic Luxi tribe and the fast-expanding Eastern Alliance have contributed a total of 234 idols with the power of faith to the Roman city of Baifeng, among them, the idols of the Luxi tribe contain the power of faith far beyond ordinary idols!

Even without the on-site guidance of the High Priest of Binglan, Bai Feng, who only judged by his own experience, could feel the strong power of faith contained in the statue of Lucy, and these statues containing the power of faith were the biggest help for Bai Feng to promote the rapid development of the city of Rome!
