Serbas announced that he would be stationed in the city of Mutina for reorganization and a series of strategic preparations.

When the rebels took over the city of Mutina, they promulgated a series of new policies.

First of all, all slave freedmen were restored, and the obedient lord of the manor was not allowed to use slaves, but could hire freedmen to work and pay them accordingly.

Those who did not want to submit were expelled, and those who resisted were killed, and their assets were confiscated and redistributed by the rebels.

New tax and payment policies were promulgated to ensure adequate supplies for the rebels.

On the other hand, the Serbas intensified the training of the army and carried out targeted training according to the characteristics of the Roman army.

Under the authority of the Serbas, Chang'an selected five hundred people from the army for elite training. These five hundred men will become the king's guard of King Serbas and are the most elite presence in the rebel army.

To this end, Chang'an also took great pains to use the diluted Ling Qingquan to wash their bones, use Liangyi acupuncture to open up their strange meridians, and teach them new fighting skills.

Of course, the fighting skills were taught by Serbas himself, and Chang'an just exchanged a suitable fighting skill 'pat' to Serbas.

Serbas was naturally overjoyed that he had comprehended a set of fighting skills in training, but fortunately, this set of skills was not outrageous, and it was a little different from the usual training movements, but it was more systematic and standardized, but the effect was really good.

With nothing to do, Chang'an rummaged through his own space, saw the small cloth bag given to him by Master Si Yu, looked at it curiously, and couldn't help but want to look up to the sky and laugh three times, Master Si Yu is definitely the most powerful master in the world.

In other words, Master Si Yu gave him all the treasury of Si Tianjing, but he accidentally collapsed Si Tianjing, is it really okay?

It's useless to think about it, but think about how to use these materials to make Selbas's army the strongest in the history of ancient Rome.

These are materials that can create artifacts, and it is definitely not okay to abuse them, and adding a little to ordinary materials will make a qualitative leap in the performance of weapons and armor.

Chang'an devoted himself to the development and development of new equipment tirelessly, and he provided solutions and thinking, all of which were completed by craftsmen.

When the news of the declaration of the city of Mutina reached the city of Rome, the whole Senate was shocked, and this was an act that shook their fundamentals and could not be tolerated or tolerated.

The Roman Senate declared the country in a state of emergency preparedness and once again sent two administrators to lead an army against the city of Mutina, and the rebellion must be completely eliminated.

In the tent, Serbas gathered his generals to discuss what to do.

The Romans attacked from two directions, Idalaria and Umbria, in an attempt to form a joint encirclement to attack Mutina.

After observing the terrain, Chang'an took the initiative to ask Ying to lead 5,000 light cavalry to intercept the 20,000 enemy troops in Idalaria, and for the 30,000 enemy troops in Umbria, Serbas decided to personally lead the army to intercept them.

After the agreement was reached, Grace proposed a new strategy, and he proposed to Serbas to lead his troops to the south, on the one hand, to implement the new policy, and on the other hand, to recruit more new troops to join the army against the Romans. This will not only reduce the pressure on the city of Mutina, but also increase the power of the rebel army.

It was a good suggestion, and in order to avoid attracting the attention of the city of Rome, Grace proposed to bring only a small number of soldiers to cover people's eyes, for example, only 500 elite men.

Chang'an was the first to jump out and object, "No! The king's guards must not move, they are responsible for the king's safety. ”

That's the elite guard he has put so much effort into, how can he be taken away casually? It is irresponsible to say that even if the rebel army is really wiped out, as long as these 500 guards protect the Serbas, everything can be restarted, this is the bottom line.

"Seth, you're the strongest warrior among us, and you don't need those five hundred. Those five hundred were the best guards in the entire army, and they could have played a greater role than they were idle! Grace struggled to convince her former companions.

"General Grace, you've really shown us what shamelessness is! You can take away five hundred sergeants, but it is by no means the king's elite guard, and the king's five hundred guards cannot move! Chang'an glared at Grace coldly, going around and around, is Grace still going to take the old road of splitting?

The generals are not easy to choose for a while, it seems that they all make sense, some support 'Maurice', some support Grace, from the overall point of view, if the southern forces form a scale, the rebel army echoes the north and south to take the city of Rome is just around the corner.

It will depend on whether their leader, King Serbas, thinks about the overall situation, gives up his personal safety, and takes care of the entire battle situation.

"I agree with General Grace's proposal to go to the south to develop a new force, and take all the five hundred guards with us, after all, it is the place where we once fought, and the foundation is good.

General Grace is my most trusted companion, comrade-in-arms, and friend, and I unconditionally support his resolution. In the end, Selbas defied the opposition of the majority.

Chang'an did not raise any further doubts, and Wang had already decided that it would only be carried out.

Hmph, don't think that the king only has an elite guard of five hundred people, he has always secretly kept a reserve of one hundred people, and those hundred people are the elite of the elite, and they are the real hole cards of King Selbas.

If those five hundred elite tax collectors are the king's guards, then these hundred are the elite of the Serbas' guards, and they only obey the orders of the Serbas themselves.

Forgive him for watching too many world costume dramas in the past, there are always a little sequelae, and there is always some room in his hands as a backup.
