Each of us is looking for a place where our hearts have not collapsed and we can live the life we want, that is, the city where we have no sorrows.

The three thousand hoplites belonging to the three auxiliary legions, whether they should be used in a centralized manner like the Iron Eagle Warriors in the future, Bai Feng himself has no idea in his heart; anyway, judging from the current situation, it is more likely that these three thousand hoplites should still be dispersed.

This is because the combined legions, composed of Roman legions and auxiliary legions, are more defensive than they can attack, whether they are Roman youth troops and Roman heavy infantry who are proficient in shield wall tactics, or Roman light infantry and longbowmen, who are far superior to attack, they are typical defensive arms.

The nine teams of Roman light cavalry and the nine teams of Roman auxiliary cavalry in the Roman legion were basically reconnaissance forces, and it was okay to occasionally pursue the defeated enemy army, but if they were pulled to the front line and confronted each other, they would inevitably suffer heavy losses and play no role.

As for the barbarian warriors of the auxiliary legion, even after special training, it is difficult for them to organize a powerful offensive; compared to the highly organized attack of the Roman legion, the attack of the barbarian warriors always contains a trace of loose meaning.

What is even more fatal is that the barbarian warriors who are not aggressive in attack can hardly play the role of offensive spearhead, and unless a strong assault force takes the lead in launching an offensive, it is difficult for them to organize a breakthrough offensive.

Bai Feng's purpose in forming a hoplite wing for each auxiliary legion is to equip each synthetic legion with an elite force that is enough to act as an offensive spearhead; since it is the assault spearhead of the synthetic legion, it is naturally more suitable to stay in the establishment of each auxiliary legion.

After explaining the special training matters of the three heavy wings to Luquis, Bai Feng exchanged opinions with Luquis on the issue of the coordination and operation of the synthetic corps;

After dealing with the training of the Heavy Wing and the Synthetic Legion, Bai Feng first ordered Marcus, the commander of the Sixth Roman Legion, to lead his Sixth Legion and the two legions of the Aceni Kingdom to rush to the Roman port as the first batch of troops.

Immediately afterwards, Luculus, the commander of the Seventh Roman Legion, led his Seventh Legion and the Second Legion of Verede of the Kingdom of Lussi to the port of Rome as the second group of marching troops, and the commander of the Dragon's Legion, Commander Bronno, led his Legion of the Dragons and the Third Legion of Valk of the Kingdom of Lucy to the port of Rome as the third group of marching troops.

The last group of troops to be drawn out were the Governor's Guard of Wendell's subordinate led by Bai Feng himself, as well as the First Banner Regiment of Bu Weixin and the Second Banner Regiment of Anton Jiazhong;

The reason why the more than 200,000 troops were divided into four groups and went to the Roman port in turn, on the one hand, was because the Roman port could not accommodate so many troops, and on the other hand, because the military discipline of the 70,000 Lucy soldiers was still very problematic.

Compared with the soldiers of the Essini Kingdom who had seen the strict military discipline of the Roman City, the soldiers of the Lucie Kingdom thought that they had come to help the Roman City fight, and they had no sense of restraint at all, and when they first arrived in the Roman City, they even did a thing to rob the caravan goods!

Of course, it may be an exaggeration to describe what the Lucie warriors did, but their behavior was no different from robbery, and the Lucie warriors, accustomed to bartering, took a fancy to the caravansera's goods and demanded that they exchange their belongings.

How could a caravan merchant who only recognized gold coins accept such a primitive barter trade? With the city of Rome as their backing, they not only justifiably rejected the demands of the Lucie warriors, but instead threatened to go to the Doge's palace to complain and let the Doge's palace come forward to punish the Lucie warriors!

The Lucy warriors, who were already dissatisfied with the merchants' refusal, after hearing the merchants' threatening words, became angry and forcibly took the goods they wanted, and then forced the animal skins and other things they took out to the merchants of the caravan.

From the point of view of the Governor's Palace, the warriors from the Kingdom of Lucy must have done something wrong, but they could not be punished for robbery, after all, they also gave the hides to the merchants of the caravan, which could be regarded as a forced purchase and sale at best.

More importantly, the Kingdom of Lucy was not a kingdom conquered by Rome after all, nor was it a kingdom established under the auspices of Rome like the Kingdom of Esini, especially in the eyes of the warriors of the Kingdom of Lucie, who did not consider themselves vassals of Rome.

When this matter was reported to Bai Feng by Vipsani, Bai Feng, who was concerned about the overall situation, first asked Wipsani to compensate the caravan whose goods were robbed in the name of the Governor's Palace, and then Bai Feng called the commander of Lucy's Second Legion, Wiled.

Unlike those ordinary Lucy warriors, as the commander of the army, Vered, as the commander of the army, was well aware of the strength of the city of Rome and the subordinate status of the Lucy Kingdom, so in the face of Bai Feng's slightly harsh rebuke, he handed over the soldiers under his command without complaint.

In the end, 23 soldiers of Lucy's 2nd Legion, who participated in the incident, were taken to the square of the Doge's Palace by a patrol guard in the city of Rome, and were sentenced to flogging on the spot, which was considered to be a complete settlement of the matter.

After such an unpleasant thing, Bai Feng really began to face up to the military discipline of Luxi's army; it doesn't matter if he doesn't pay attention to it, but it scares Bai Feng a lot, and the freedom of Luxi's soldiers is beyond Bai Feng's imagination!

In order to prevent similar things from happening again, Bai Feng gave a death order to the two legion commanders, Willed and Valk, telling them to restrain the soldiers under their command, and not to let the soldiers under their command do anything that endangers the city of Rome!

In addition, Bai Feng's previous idea of leading the army of the Roman city headquarters to the Yamato Empire and then letting the First Fleet turn back to receive the vassal army was also shattered, and Bai Feng did not dare to leave the army of Lucy, which was loose in military discipline, in the Roman port where trade was prosperous.

Bai Feng, who had to adjust the order of the expeditionary army, left the Sixth Roman Legion and the Seventh Roman Legion in the first batch, and the remaining Tenglong Legion and the two Banner Legions were replaced by Bai Feng with 70,000 soldiers of the two Lucy Legions.

Let the Tenglong Legion and the two Banner Legions, which have absolutely no problem in terms of military discipline, as well as the Essini soldiers whose military discipline is better than Lusi's soldiers, stay in the Roman port, Bai Feng's heart is still relatively relieved; at least, the warriors of the Essini Kingdom dare not cause trouble!

When the whole army arrived in the Roman port, the hundred transports belonging to the First Roman Fleet of Namus were ready, because Bai Feng demanded that each transport ship should not only be Lucy warriors, and the legions of Wiled and Marcus began to cooperate with each other to board the ships.

After that, it was Valker's legion and Luculus's legion that continued to cooperate in two to board the ship, and by the time the governor's guard around Bai Feng began to board, it had been a full day and a night since the first boarding of the ship!
