Chapter 1666: ""

If there is one thing I encourage you all to do, it is to never follow the crowd.
Ishiguro Ichio (Famous Japanese-British novelist)
The regular recruitment limit of 30 recruitment places per month in the Roman system was removed, which also meant that the population of the Roman city was no longer the recruitment limit of the system army. The new problem that followed was that the soldiers of the system army would directly Deducted from the population of the citizens of Rome.
After the recruitment of five thousand Roman youth troops and nine hundred Roman heavy infantry, Bai Feng was surprised to see that the treasury capital of the Roman city was reduced by 26.41 million gold, but did not find the Roman city attribute table. The number of people in the population has dropped by nearly one million!
Each Roman youth team has 160 well-equipped Roman youth soldiers, and five thousand Roman youth soldiers are 800,000 Roman youth soldiers; each Roman heavy infantry has 161 well-equipped The number of Roman heavy infantry soldiers, the nine hundred Roman heavy infantry soldiers, is 144,900 Roman heavy infantry soldiers, and the total of the two is 94,490 Roman system soldiers.
Bai Feng, who responded from the ecstasy of the moment, when subconsciously looking at the attribute table of the city of Rome, found that the population of the city of Rome also decreased sharply from the previous 8.57 million to the current 7.63 million; Such a result, not to mention pouring a pot of cold water on Bai Feng, who was full of excitement, but also let him see the many disadvantages caused by the removal of conventional recruitment restrictions.
But even if there is such a drawback that cannot be ignored, everyone including Bai Feng still thinks that the Roman system after removing the recruitment restrictions is more practical; there is little hesitation, and the stubborn Bai Feng recruited 620 people in one breath. The caster, in addition to assigning two casters to each navy battleship, also retained a 256 caster caster group.
Among the 372 warships currently available in the Roman city navy, there are two seven-tier battleships, one hundred five-tier battleships, one hundred and fifty three-tier battleships, and one hundred and twenty double-row battleships; The warship is equipped with two spellcasters, which may be enough for those double-row battleships, but for five-row battleships and even seven-row battleships, it is a bit of a salary.
Fortunately, there are no enemies worthy of their serious consideration in the navy of the Roman city today, so Bai Feng is not eager to increase the number of casters assigned to high-level warships, but first maintains this level of conservative and aggressive.
First, 620 casters, then 700 battlefield ghosts and 650 shadow killers. In order to supplement the three special characters of the Roman system to a thousand, Bai Feng once again consumed seven Treasury funds of 140,000 gold.
After completing the recruitment of these special characters, Bai Feng officially began to negotiate with Marcus, Vepsani and others on the plan he conceived; for this, Marcus, who is most familiar with the situation of the Dragon Empire, once again put forward his own views. : "Your Majesty, the minister still feels that it is too exaggerated to send a Roman army in every town in the empire, because there are too many imperial towns!"
"How many towns are there in the Dragon Empire?" asked Vipsani who didn't know much about the Dragon Empire.
Marcus explained to Vipsani: "I personally divide the towns of the Dragon Empire into three types. The first type is a town without a stone wall, the second type is a city with a stone wall, and the third type is a county. A large city with an extremely important geographical location such as the capital of a city."
"The empire that has just been restored internally has six capitals in the eastern six provinces, with 20 capitals, 73 ordinary cities, and 325 towns, although cities and towns in the northwest, southwest, and west of the empire were The war has been severely damaged, but the south, which has the largest number of imperial towns, has not been damaged by war, so in general, the number of imperial towns is still extremely large."
Marcus has been in charge of the Ministry of the Interior of the Dragon Empire for more than half a year. His words, Vipsani naturally doubt him; Bai Feng also knows what Marcus said, but what he knows is only the general distribution of the imperial towns He doesn’t know the exact number of towns, or he has never thought about understanding these too detailed things before.
"How many cities and towns are there in the Empire now? Do you have statistics from the Ministry of the Interior?"
"Your Majesty, in addition to the six provinces in the east, there are six capitals in the northern six provinces, twenty counties, fifty-nine ordinary cities, and two hundred and eighty-eight towns; the four northwestern provinces have four capitals and fifteen counties. , 41 ordinary cities and 179 cities and towns; there are 12 capital cities, 33 ordinary cities and 124 towns in the three capitals of the three southwestern provinces."
"The eleven western provinces currently have eleven capitals with 37 county towns, 108 ordinary cities, and 522 towns; the southern provinces have five capitals, fifteen county towns, and forty cities. Four ordinary cities, 127 cities and towns; the two capitals of the Baima Special Administrative Region now have two capitals, eight county cities, 32 ordinary cities, and 117 towns."
"There are currently 43 capital cities, 12 capital cities, 165 ordinary cities, and 694 towns in 12 provinces in the central province; 37 capital cities in 10 provinces in the south, 183 ordinary cities and 832 towns; all added up, the Empire counts 207 capitals in 59 capitals, 738 ordinary cities and 3,200 ordinary cities Eighty towns."
The horrible number makes Bai Feng, who has recruited five thousand Roman youth troops and nine hundred Roman heavy infantry, inevitably hesitate; because his own original idea was to deploy one in each imperial town The Royal Garrison composed of five teams of Roman youth troops and a group of Roman heavy infantry, but now it seems that such a deployment is really unrealistic.
One town needs five Roman youth teams and one Roman heavy infantry. Those 3,208 towns need 16,040 young Roman troops and 3,208 Roman heavy infantry. More than three million troops are required!
Not to mention whether Bai Feng has the courage to exchange more than three million people in the Roman city for the Roman army of the same size, that is, whether the finances of the Dragon Empire can feed these three million Roman troops; even more terrible is that in the Dragon Under the premise that the Empire already has 700,000 royal troops, 1.2 million standing troops, and more than 1.5 million reserve troops, the addition of more than 3 million troops will definitely attract the attention of other countries.
The Tianlong Empire with 3.5 million troops and the Tianlong Empire with 7 million troops are two completely different concepts; if the Tianlong Empire really added more than 3 million Roman troops, it might still be In the fierce battle of Deman and Dessau, the two kingdoms will strike and truce, and even the Holy See will guard the Tianlong Empire. This is the inevitable result of blindly expanding the army.
When I think of these, Bai Feng's complexion becomes difficult to look at, and Quintus, who also thinks of these, is changing his face, and still proposes with unwillingness: "If we put them in the city defense army system, can we To achieve the goal of concealment?"
