Chapter 156: "·Governor's Guard"


Living in hope without hope is the greatest tragic decline in life.
Alegelli Dante (Italian poet, one of the pioneers of the European Renaissance era)
The idea of ​​allowing the Roman cavalry to form a scale just appeared in Bai Feng's mind, and was quickly dispelled by Bai Feng. This idea is too dangerous and undesirable. It is simply the idea of ​​having hatred against the treasury funds of the city of Rome. !
The recruitment price of a team of Roman light cavalry is not expensive. It only requires 390 gold treasury funds, and the annual maintenance cost of 110 gold is not worth mentioning; but the key point is that the city of Rome cannot afford the Roman light cavalry. The price to pay for the battlefield!
Based on the fighting power of the Roman Light Cavalry, it needs at least 20 teams of Roman Light Cavalry to play an important role in a battle; maybe their battle array charge can indeed change the situation on the battlefield, but The cost of their casualties must also be terrifying.
When a battle broke out between the city of Rome and the Aisini tribe on the banks of the Cangluo River, a total of 1,920 soldiers from the 12th Roman Youth Corps of the First Legion of Lisini died in battle with 378 soldiers. This is still The number of soldiers killed by the war doctor Hua Mu in time.
The death rate of 19.7% is not too low, but considering their record, it may not be unacceptable, but when Bai Feng reorganized the twelve Roman youth teams in the Roman city system yesterday, he was almost Did not cry on the spot.
The twelve teams of the Roman Youth Army need to replenish a total of 378 soldiers, and the treasury funds needed to supplement these soldiers are 1040 gold; when the 1040 gold is deducted, Bai Feng feels like someone is holding a knife It seems like cutting your own flesh.
The combat effectiveness is okay, and even the Roman Youth Army, which was the absolute main force of the early Roman army, has to pay such a price to win in the face of brutal battle, killing 800 enemy self-destructive Roman light cavalry. Is there any performance on the battlefield?
Recruiting 20 teams of Roman light cavalry requires a total of 7800 gold treasury funds, which can be within the tolerance of the city of Rome. In order not to affect the development of the city of Rome, Bai Feng can spend more than two months to form the 20 teams Roman Light Cavalry.
However, no matter how the Roman city develops, it is impossible to bear the price that the Roman light cavalry will have to pay for the large number of casualties as soon as they enter the battlefield. When thinking about this, Bai Feng decided to give up his large-scale recruitment of Roman light cavalry. Idea.
This is not to say that Roman light cavalry is completely chicken-ribbed. Anyway, small-scale Roman light cavalry can also serve as reconnaissance cavalry, and help the city of Rome to train the barbarian cavalry who do not understand the cooperation of the battle array. Their value is still some. .
After testing the combat effectiveness of Roman hussars, Bai Feng let the two teams of Roman hussars be temporarily handed over to Nielsen for the purpose of helping the two Roman hussars to help Nelson train their cavalry's battle lineup. .
There is no general who does not want his army to become more and more powerful. This exercise in the barracks today not only made Bai Feng understand the value of Roman light cavalry, but also made Nelson understand the shortcomings of his cavalry; just Bai Feng is willing to let the two teams of Roman light cavalry who are proficient in battle.
After dealing with the Roman light cavalry and mobile forces, Bai Feng continued to bring his entourage to the barracks next door. At this time, Antio had prepared everything in this barracks, one thousand in black and black armor The soldiers and the five hundred cavalry were also standing by.
In order to distinguish between the Governor’s Guard and other legions of soldiers, Antio suggested that Bai Feng put a black cloak on everyone of the Governor’s Guard, so that it would seem more powerful and easy to enhance the honor of the Governor’s Guard soldiers sense.
Therefore, when Bai Feng came to this barracks, he ordered a thousand cool warriors standing in a neat formation under the stage, standing in black clothes and black armor, holding a round shield on the left and holding a long sword on the right, wearing a black cape; Next to them are 500 cavalry soldiers holding their horses. These cavalry soldiers are dressed almost exactly like the soldiers on the side. The only difference is that they have sharp spears on their left hands.
Unlike the cavalry of Nelson's colorful horses, the 500 horsemen in this barracks are all holding black and strong horses. Even if they are used to the big scene of Baifeng, they feel that seeing this pure black army Shocked.
After walking quickly to the general, before waiting for Bai Feng to speak, the 1,500 soldiers below shouted on one knee and shouted: "Follow the Governor-General! Vow to be loyal to Rome!"
The shouting of 1,500 people in unison was only a small scene for Bai Feng, who has experienced tens of thousands of armies shouting, but this time Bai Feng can feel loyalty and fanaticism from the shouting of these 1,500 people, This is what Bai Feng wants most urgently!
"My courageous and fearless soldiers, every one of you is an elite in their respective legions. Before coming to this brand new army, many of you have already achieved the position of captains and centurions.
And when General Antio finds you, you can resolutely give up everything you have and come to this newly formed army, which makes me very moved and gratified, because I can see from this point that you are My loyalty.
Perhaps, you still don’t understand what your new military uniform and this new army mean at this time. Now let me tell you what it means; when you come to this new military camp and put on this new military uniform, You are a member of the Roman Governor's Guard!
What is the Governor's Guard? The Governor's Guard is not only the personal guard of the Governor of Rome, but also the most elite and brave army in Rome. Your name represents the word elite. The meaning of your existence is to make your comrades look up and fear the enemy!
From now on, in the war between our Roman city and any enemy, your Governor’s Guard will be the first army to enter the battle, and the last one to withdraw from the battle. Chenghe will be your daily life.
In short, you will enjoy all the best treatment, and will participate in all the cruelest battles, this is your Governor's Guard, each of you will be our hero and elite in the city of Rome! Tell me, are you willing to give everything for this? "
"Governor's Guard, until death!" The answer to Bai Feng this time was the roar from Antio.
"The Governor's Guard will never die! The Governor's Guard will never die! The Governor's Guard will never die!..." But followed by the cry of 1,500 Governor's Guard soldiers, all will be ordered in the future The black soul of the enemy who was frightened by the wind was finally born at this moment!
