Chapter 198: "·Spartan Heavy Infantry"

You can die happily if you haven't spent a lifetime, just like you can sleep peacefully!
-Leonardo da Vinci (typical artist of the Renaissance)
Last time Nielsen led his army to find 20 idols from the camp where the enemy barbarian old and weak women and children were held. Bai Feng got these idols and did not rush to send them to the temple of Apollo to sacrifice, as long as it was the treasury of the city of Rome There was a problem with the funds.
On the premise that there is no treasury funds in the city of Rome, Bai Feng did not make any sense to sacrifice all these 20 statues, so Bai Feng did not consider the sacrifice at all, and placed all the statues in the Governor’s Palace. In the backyard.
When it was time to help the Cheetah Legion to engage in the Macedonian phalanx, Bai Feng had to face up to reality. He remembered that no one in the Roman city would train those barbarian warriors, even the summoned Li Xini and Antio, they did not understand Macedonian phalanx.
In fact, in the Roman world where Bai Feng was originally, the Macedonian phalanx was almost an unused battle array; even though the eastern forces similar to the ancient Empire of Seleucid and the Kingdom of Egypt, and the forces on the Greek peninsula still use spears The military phalanx, but that is not the real Macedonian phalanx, it is just a fake imitation.
For the Cheetah Legion to truly form the Macedonian phalanx, at least two factors are necessary: ​​first, the tacit cooperation between the arms, in addition to the necessary phalanx pikemen, there must be soldiers, archers, Cavalry assistance.
Second, the core of the Macedonian phalanx is, in the final analysis, the most important phalanx pikemen; if the pikemen of the cheetah corps cannot be trained into persevering soldiers who are not afraid of life and death and understand the formation, then all other efforts are in vain .
Normally, a standard Macedonian pikemen phalanx should consist of 4096 pikemen; each 64 pikemen form a row, a sixteen-row deep pike has 1024 pikemen, four such small squares The array just constitutes a standard square matrix.
This standard phalanx is supplemented by a long-range strike force composed of 1024 archers, a mobile force composed of 1024 cavalry, and a light infantry composed of 2048 soldiers with shields and swords. This total of 8192 soldiers is the standard Macedonian square. .
Based on the production capacity of the blacksmith's shop in Rome, the formation of the pikemen, light infantry, and archers is not a problem. The formation of the cavalry also requires the cooperation of Nelson. The key to the problem lies in the training of the pikemen.
Bai Feng had no choice but to put his hopes on the special armament of Apollo Temple. As long as Binglan High Priest can summon a team of Spartan heavy infantry for the city of Rome, then the formation of the cheetah corps Macedonian phalanx The meeting went smoothly.
With two idols, Bai Feng came to the Temple of Apollo again; after entering the temple, this time the high priest of Binglan was in the temple, but Bai Feng, who has been very strange recently, did not plan to say anything. He saw Bing. High Priest Lan went straight to the theme and said:
"Bing Lan, I have two gods here. You sacrificed them to summon special arms; but this time I want to summon specific Spartan heavy infantry. Can this kind of summoning with specific objects be carried out? ?"
"Do you want to summon a specific object?" The high priest of Binglan glanced at the rushing Bai Feng slightly, and then thought about it and answered, "This kind of summoning is not impossible, but the price needs to be paid. Normally twice as summoned."
"Don’t say it’s twice, even if it’s triple, I have to summon it! Bing Lan, since you can summon the two gods, you must hurry to sacrifice for me, and I will recruit a team of Spartan heavy infantry. Okay, everything else will increase your lifespan."
Bai Feng, who was still waiting for the formation of the Macedonian phalanx to help the Cheetah Legion, did not intend to waste time on this summoned matter. The high priest Binglan noticed the anxiety in Bai Feng's tone and started this without any hesitation. Sacrifice and summon.
The sacrifices of the two gods in the area are nothing more than waved hands for the high priest who was promoted to the temple priest; after waiting a little more than ten minutes, a team of Spartan heavy infantry was killed by Bing Lan. The priest summoned it.
"Are you going to leave like this?" The call of Binglan's high priest here was just over, and Bai Feng was about to pull his leg out of the temple; but he hadn't reached the door of the temple, but behind him came the soft princess of Binglan. Sweet voice.
Well, it sounds awkward everywhere in Bai Feng’s ears; it seems that Bai Feng is a man of low sentimentality, playing with the feelings of Bing Lan’s high priest and running away, embarrassed Bai Feng has to go Turned back.
"I called you back just to tell you that the power of faith contained in the two gods just now was pretty good, better than the gods sacrificed before; even if they paid twice for the summoning of the troops, the remnants The power of faith is still a lot.
I have increased my life ten years this time. I have helped you increase the population of the city of Rome five times by the power of other beliefs; I know that you have been tired of dealing with the external threats of the city of Rome recently, and I can’t help anything else. Busy, can only help you this way. "
"Alas..." I didn't expect that Binglan High Priest called himself back to say this. Listening to the soft words of Binglan High Priest, Bai Feng's heart felt sour, he really owed her more and more After a helpless sigh, Bai Feng said:
"Bing Lan, in fact, our Roman city is really not as fragile as you think. You just need to protect yourself. You have helped me enough. You just make me feel more and more owed to you. !"
"But I really just want to help you; I stay in the temple all day, and I can’t go outside to help you do other things, even the only thing I can do for you is still sent by you. The power of faith from the sacrifice of gods, alas..."
Looking at the pitiful appearance of Binglan High Priest, Bai Feng's heart that originally wanted to persuade Binglan High Priest not to do so was also softened instantly; he quickly smiled and comforted Binglan High Priest:
"Okay, okay, I've lost it to you. I'll let you decide what to do in the future. I won't say much more about you; but don't think too much about our city of Rome, remember to be appropriate Increase your own lifespan!"
He accompanied the Binglan high priest to speak in the temple for a while, and Bai Feng left the Binglan high priest who was in a good mood to go first; after walking out of the temple, Bai Feng really saw a team wearing red uniforms and wearing scarves Cloak, left hand clasped a heavy Greek shield, right hand clasped a Spartan heavy infantry of about three meters in length.
"Thisissparta!" After the Spartan heavy infantry saw Bai Feng approaching them, he shouted on Bai Feng on one knee and shouted a slogan that made Bai Feng feel blood boiling, looking at the group called'Red The soldiers in the pants are the real strongest pikemen. Bai Feng believes that they can train qualified Macedonian pikemen for the Cheetah Legion!
