Chapter 272: "·Starting the way home"

Among the many white feathered pigeons, a dark crow can bring out the beauty of the pigeon better than a snowy swan.
- Giovanni Boccaccio (outstanding representative of the Italian Renaissance, humanist)
"Governor, the loyalty of the Spartans is the most trustworthy in the world; I, Leonidas, will use your unfailing loyalty to loyalty to the Governor, this is the only reason why I deserve your trust !"
If such words were spoken by other generals, Bai Feng might smile, and loyalty is not a word of mouth; as for the generals summoned by the Temple of Apollo, their loyalty is no need to say.
Even Paris, who was personally trained by Bai Feng, has absolute trust in him; only for Leonida, Bai Feng cannot say that he does not trust him, but he feels that his name is too sensitive.
Leonida's answer Bai Feng just nodded blankly, but Gattus on the side mistakenly thought that Bai Feng had any prejudice against Leonida; therefore, he quickly knelt on one knee and anxiously explained to Bai Feng :
"Governor, this time the reason why our cheetah corps was able to hit from both sides of the enemy and insisted that General Bruno’s Tamron corps rushed to the battlefield, it was all thanks to Leonida Centurion’s power; otherwise, we would have The whole army was wiped out.
When Leonid Centurion collapsed, he reunited his warriors with his own strength and killed the Cádiz Valley; including me, the entire cheetah corps was killed. Leonida Centurion rescued! "
Bai Feng's expressionless face just now was just thinking about where to put Leonidas; but Gattus's performance was to give Bai Feng a wake-up call, Leoni, who will save the cheetah corps. Da, it seems to be a good choice to put in the Cheetah Legion.
"Gattus, if I appoint Leonida Centurion as your assistant, lieutenant general of the Cheetah Corps; let him help you command the Cheetah Corps together, would you accept such an appointment?"
"Governor, I think it’s too humiliating to let General Leonida be my assistant; if General Leonida is willing to stay in our cheetah corps, I’m willing to give up the rank of my corps leader. Be his assistant!"
When hearing the first half of Gattus's words, Bai Feng thought Gattus was unwilling to leave the prestigious Leonida in the Cheetah Legion; but then Gattus's sincerity was beyond Bai Feng's imagination Even Leonida turned around and looked at Gattus in surprise.
Although Bai Feng believes that Gattus is telling the truth, he cannot really appoint Leonida as the head of the Cheetah Legion; no matter how much Leonida has contributed, he was only a centuries before. Long, suddenly became the head of the legion is too shocking.
Even if he is about to become the new commander of the Governor’s Guard, he has gone through a series of job changes to reach this step today. At the beginning, he was only a centurion of the archer Archer, Later he was promoted to be the leader of the three thousand long archers.
From the commander of 3,000 long archers to the commander of 10,000 long archers, the current promotion of Paris is completely the result of a critical order; afterwards, his achievements are enough to make him a new warrior in the city of Rome, no one can Question his ability.
Even so, Bai Feng did not intend to replace Peris with any former legion chief; Antio’s Governor’s Guard was led by Perez, and Antio would soon become the newly formed second legion Head of the army.
Compared with the step-by-step promotion of Peres, Leonida's qualifications are still too shallow; and he does not have the experience of commanding large-scale military operations. For all considerations, Bai Feng still advises Gattus. Rejected:
"Gattus, I know you have a broad mind, but Leonid Centurion’s experience as a commander is still inadequate; hastily made him the commander-in-chief of tens of thousands of soldiers. You Cheetah Corps are not responsible.
I will still appoint him as the deputy lieutenant of the cheetah corps and let him be your assistant; I hope that when you jointly command the cheetah corps, you must work together and strive to make the cheetah corps the most powerful legion in our city of Rome one! "
"I, Gattus (Leonida), will not disappoint the Governor!" Gattus and Leonida did not raise any objections to the arrangement of Bai Feng, and the two responded in unison with a strong voice, so that Bai Feng's face appeared A satisfied smile.
After seeing Leonidas with his own eyes, Bai Feng took his followers out of the military account; the tower giant Bai Sheng had no chance to fight with his giant axe in the last few battles. Too.
Today, the tasks of the soldiers in the city of Rome are still very heavy. The battlefield that has not been cleaned needs to be cleaned, and the battlefield may not be cleaned in the morning. After the battlefield is cleaned, the soldiers in the city of Rome will withdraw their troops and set off on their way home. .
The task of guarding the captives was formally handed over to Lisini’s First Army, and all the officers of the other armies went out to clean the battlefield; the troops and captains led by General Assam also arrived in Rome in the morning. The barracks of the city army.
For the soldiers captured by Nabazzani and Assam, Bai Feng tacitly approves that they belong to Nabazzani and Assam; who let these captives be their own captives, Bai Feng is also embarrassed to rob others' captives. what!
After learning that Francis was defeated and killed, the captive soldiers were easily persuaded by Nabazzani and Assam, and all joined the army of the two of them; when the army of Rome cleaned the battlefield, they The army of the two also recovered to 30,000.
Although there are too many wounded in these 30,000 troops, fortunately, it is also a force that cannot be underestimated; the Roman army who set foot on their way home will naturally bring these troops belonging to Nabazzani and Assam together Return to Queen Budeka's camp.
It took about three days to retreat from the Cadiz Valley to the camps where Upton and Joshuare were led by the army respectively; the presence of the wounded greatly delayed the army's marching speed, so that it took five days Only then returned to this camp.
If this continues, I am afraid that the Roman city’s army may not be able to return to Rome after two months; in order to speed up the march, Bai Feng asked Nabazzani and Assam to bring about 10,000 wounded soldiers under their command. All stayed in this camp.
The return to the city of Rome reduced the number of wounded by 10,000, but the number of 25,000 soldiers under Upton was naturally more bloated; for the nobility in Upton’s killing camp, Napa Zani and Assam wisely chose not to mention it.
When marching again, Bai Feng found helplessly that Li Xini’s First Army only looked at the 46,000 captives, but it was still difficult to increase the speed of the march; so he directly ordered the captives to be divided into eight. Small-scale troops.
The eight regrouped captive troops were guarded by the six legions of the Roman city and the Assini legion of Joshuaul, and the army of Upton; in this way, the speed of the march was increased and barely reached the army. Speed.
