A person who does not measure his own strength and breaks into danger in a daze can be called brave but not strategic, and a person who knows the danger but does not be afraid for no reason can be called a warrior. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

After the formation of the Southern Alliance was finalized, Long Teng and Bai Haotian and others discussed the expansion process of the five legions, the formation and deployment of the Southern Knights and the Southern Swordsmen, and the steps for in-depth cooperation between the five major families.

After repeated consultations and adjustments between the five of them, the formation time of the Southern Knights and the Southern Swordsmen was limited to three months, and when the Knights and Swordsmen were formed, the Knights would be stationed in San Sebastian City, and the Swordsmen would be stationed in Llorente.

As for the expansion of the five legions, it was not something that could be completed in a short period of time, and the young and strong men of the Celestial Dragon Empire were not barbarian warriors who were all soldiers, they had to go through a long period of training and use sophisticated weapons and equipment before they could play a role on the battlefield.

In view of this, the five family heads formulated a plan to give priority to the expansion of the Ninth and Eleventh Legions, and within the next six months, the Ninth and Eleventh Legions will be expanded to 20,000 troops, and the newly expanded soldiers will also form initial combat effectiveness.

After the expansion of the Ninth Army and the Eleventh Army is completed, the Sun Family's Tenth Army Corps, the Andre Family's Twelfth Army Corps, and the Li Family's Thirteenth Army Corps will officially begin their one-year military expansion plan.

This means that in just one and a half years, the 50,000 army of the five legions of the five major families in the southern realm can be expanded to 85,000 troops, and with the addition of the 3,000 knights of the knight order and the 4,000 swordsmen of the swordsman regiment, the concentrated strength of the southern territory will have more powerful combat power.

In addition to these close military cooperation, Long Teng also had the foresight to put forward a proposal to strengthen the ties between the younger generations of the five families, which was also unanimously approved by the other four family heads for the future unity of the five families.

According to this suggestion, Long Zhan and Long Xin of the Long Family, Bai Feng of the Bai Family, Sun Ce and Sun Quan of the Sun Family, Peter of the Andre Family, and Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin of the Li Family will go to the Imperial Capital to study in the Imperial Academy together after the New Year.

In fact, the seven members of the other families who were about to go to the Imperial Capital with Bai Feng were all young people of the same age as Bai Feng, and there were some members of the third generation of these families who had already studied in the Imperial Capital Academy. For example: Long Bo, the best third-generation eldest man of the Long family.

Bai Haotian's secret conversation with the other four major family heads was clearly heard by Bai Mingcheng when he was taken to Bai Feng next door to the secret room, and it was Bai Haotian's decision to let Bai Mingcheng and Bai Feng observe this secret conversation, and he obtained Long Teng's consent.

With the strength of the Dragon Teng Sword Saint, he could easily detect that there was someone next door to the secret room, so there was no possibility of hiding this kind of thing from Long Teng, and Bai Haotian felt that there was no need to hide this kind of thing from Long Teng.

After all, Bai Mingcheng is the nominal head of the Bai family; in the past secret meetings of the five major families, it has always been Bai Mingcheng who represents the Bai family, if the other four family heads did not come to the Bai family this time, it will definitely be Bai Mingcheng who participates in the secret meeting on behalf of the Bai family.

Long Teng, who came to congratulate the Bai family, naturally couldn't refute Bai Haotian's face in such a trivial matter; as for Bai Feng's existence, then Long Teng couldn't help but think about it too much, who made Bai Feng not the eldest son of the Bai family!

In fact, there is no fixed family inheritance rule in the Celestial Dragon Empire, however, the eldest son of the head of the family often has more advantages in inheriting the family, and the head of most families will let their eldest son inherit the position of the head of the family.

Take the Bai family as an example, Bai Mingcheng, the current head of the Bai family, is the eldest son of Bai Haotian, the previous head of the Bai family, but he is not the only son who can inherit the family, Bai Haotian's second son Bai Mingliang and third son Bai Mingxing have the right to inherit the family.

The reason why Bai Mingcheng was able to inherit the Bai family smoothly was because his ability was indeed stronger than Bai Mingliang and Bai Mingxing, and on the other hand, because of his status as the eldest son;

The current situation is that under the premise that Bai Mingcheng's eldest son Bai Sa behaves normally, Bai Haotian actually asked Bai Mingcheng's second son Bai Feng and Bai Mingcheng to observe the secret meeting of the five major families together;

As the head of the Long family, Long Teng had to consider this possibility, because the Bai family, with two sword masters, would become a decisive force in the southern region, and the future head of the Long family must maintain a good relationship with the future family of the Bai family.

This is also the reason why Long Teng deliberately told his eldest grandson Long Bo to befriend Bai Sa when he went to the Imperial Academy, at that time, the Bai family did not have a twin sword saint, and the appearance of the twin sword saints made the Bai family's status rise sharply.

As soon as he thought of this, Long Teng secretly made up his mind that after returning home, he must tell Long Zhan and Long Xin to let them establish a good relationship with Bai Feng, so that no matter who Bai Sa and Bai Feng can inherit the Bai family, they will maintain close ties with the Long family.

At this time, Long Teng didn't know that Bai Feng's status in the Bai family was far beyond his imagination, and even to a certain extent, the Bai family was about to become a part of Bai Feng's forces, and the Bai family was subordinate to Bai Feng, not Bai Feng was subordinate to the Bai family.

Of course, the relationship between Bai Feng and the Bai family cannot be completely explained by who belongs to whom; the Bai family regards Bai Feng as their relatives, and Bai Feng also regards the Bai family as his own relatives, and the affection between relatives cannot be measured by affiliation.

This secret meeting of the five families lasted for five or six hours before it ended, and the other four heads of the family did not have time to stay in the White Mansion for one night; after talking about all the things that should be discussed, the three heads of the family, Sun Kui, Romanov, and Li Mubai, left first.

Long Teng, who left at the end, had a special conversation with Bai Mingcheng before leaving Bai Mansion, but his eyes never left Bai Feng's side by Bai Mingcheng's side, which made Bai Feng, who didn't know why, feel very puzzled.

As for the relationship between the five major families in the southern realm, Bai Feng used to understand that each had its own contradictions, and after this secret meeting, he realized that the so-called contradictions were just appearances for the emperor to see, and the close connection was their real relationship.

In this regard, Bai Feng himself breathed a sigh of relief, the southern region with many internal contradictions was not the southern region that Bai Feng wanted to see, only the united five major families in the southern realm could win the greatest interests for the Bai family in the empire.

After knowing the relationship between the Bai family and the other four major families, Bai Feng's heart was thinking about how to help the Bai family improve their strength; the previous energy light ball could only improve the individual strength of the Bai family, and the improvement of the strength of the entire Bai family was not obvious enough.

Although the dukedom of the empire is much more noble than the marquis, for the empire caught in a two-front war, the dignity of status is of little significance;

Only by virtue of their own strong Bai family can they truly stand tall in the Tianlong Empire, and can they help Rome City integrate into the Tianlong Empire, and the predicament of the Tianlong Empire happens to provide the best opportunity for the development of the Bai family!
