Chapter 944 Activate the Roman Eagle Flag!
Chutian has two candidates for the masters of the Liaodong Army. One is Li Ji, who serves as the military adviser of the Guanzhong Army.
Another candidate was Le Yi who was transferred to the Imperial Guard by Chu Tian.
Le Yi is also good at commanding soldiers and horses, as well as resourcefulness and internal affairs.
No matter who he is, he is capable of serving as the leader of the Liaodong Army.
In addition, among the imperial guards, many commanders are qualified to serve as military leaders.
Chutian could even send Xiao Chuo to take over the Liaodong Army.
The bravery of the Liaodong Army was well-known in the Han Empire. With the strength of the Liaodong Army, it was possible to conquer Koryo.
Therefore, who is sent to take over the Liaodong Army and clear the influence of Mingguan forces in Liaodong is very important.
"Li Ji surrendered and served me for less than a year. If he was sent to Liaodong City, he might not be able to convince the masses. Le Yi should be the commander of the Liaodong Army. Liaodong was originally the territory of Yan State."
Chutian finally decided to appoint Le Yi to guard Liaodong.
Le Yi has been with Chutian for about ten years, so he is considered a veteran.
Chutian began to set up the Liaodong Army.
The Yanjia Legion, which was originally the sixth regiment of the Imperial Guard, was transferred to the Liaodong Army by Chu Tian. As the first regiment, with Yanjia as the main force, it ruled the remnants of the original Mingguan. Yanjia plus Liaodong infantry, mainly infantry, has an establishment of 150,000 people.
Geng Yan and Zhu Neng formed the Tuqi Army, with Youzhou Tuqi as the main force, as the second army of the Liaodong Army. The combination of Geng Yan and Zhu Neng's Youzhou Tuqi can be used for both field battles and siege. It is currently the absolute main force of the Liaoning Army's cavalry. Youzhou Tuqi plus Liaodong cavalry, mainly cavalry, with a staff of 100,000.
Zu Dashou formed the Guanning Army, the third army, with a staff of 50,000.
Gongsun Kang formed the Wuhuan Army, the Fourth Army, with a staff of 50,000.
The entire Liaodong Army has 300,000 troops, which is far less than that in the Mingguan period. The opponent in the Mingguan period was Chutian, so it was necessary to gather a large number of troops and fight to the death.
After the failure of the Ming Pass, the Liaodong Army had no pressure, so it streamlined its troops and reduced financial expenditures.
Liaodong was originally part of Youzhou, and the Liaodong Army plus Youzhou Army has reached 500,000, which is not a lot at all.
Cao Cao, as the leader of the Hebei Army, selected and trained 10,000 Wuhuan cavalry on his behalf, and transferred them to the world's famous cavalry.
As for Sun Chuanting, he was transferred to the Guanzhong Army by Chutian, and the source of his special unit "Qin Army" came from Guanzhong.
In addition, Chu Tian asked Qin Liangyu, Wu Tugu, and Zhang Yan to form a mountain army to replace Le Yi's army in the Imperial Guard.
The military power is getting bigger and bigger, and the entire north has become a war machine, and it needs an outlet.
Chutian is already preparing for the Western Expedition, the premise is to unify the Han Empire and conquer the surrounding civilizations.
Goryeo, which had just been restored to the country, became one of Chutian's goals.
Before carrying out the big conquest plan, Chu Tian had one more thing to do.
There are still two Roman eagle flags in Chutian's warehouse, which are the spoils of the third national war. Now they can finally be taken out, and then use the Roman eagle flags to form the Roman Legion.
The Roman Legion is a characteristic arm of Roman civilization. If the lords of other civilizations want to recruit their characteristic arms, there are three restrictions.
First, there is a Roman eagle flag, and each Roman eagle flag represents a Roman legion.
Second, generals with Roman civilization.
Third, the source of soldiers for the Roman Legion came from Roman citizens.
Until now, Chutian has finally met these three conditions.
Although the Roman general Varus recruited by Chutian on the battlefield of the national war was not the first-class Roman generals such as Scipio, Marius, and Fabian, Varus helped Chutian meet the conditions for recruiting the Roman legion .
Chu Tian returned to the warehouse in Xiacheng, found the dusty Roman eagle flag, and patted off the dust on it.
The most cherished eagle flag of the Roman Empire was abandoned by Chu Tian in the past period of time.
As a special prop, the Roman eagle flag can naturally be seen in its introduction.
Chu Tian checked the introduction of one of the Roman eagle flags.
Name: Roman Eagle Banner (15th Apollo Legion)
Grade: special props,
Indestructible
Effect: Used to form the Fifteenth Apollo Legion of the Roman Empire
Legion: Participated in the Jewish War, Dacian War, Roman War against Persia, etc.
Legion Ability: Protected by Apollo, the god of light in Greek mythology, after a legion soldier is injured, the speed of injury recovery, morale recovery speed, and physical strength recovery speed are increased.
After reading the introduction of one of the eagle flags, Chu Tian knew that this eagle flag corresponded to the 15th Legion of the Roman Empire—the Apollo Legion.
Chutian set up various legions, which actually refer to the setting of the Roman legions.
However, Chutian now controls a larger territory, so there is also a military leader on top of the legion, which is equivalent to the military region system.
Different from Chutian's custom legion, each Roman legion has its own special ability.
This is one of the characteristics of the Roman Legion, because the Roman Legion itself is a high-level unit, not a custom legion.
Roman emperors can also customize legions, but they don't have this special ability.
The carrier of the special ability is the "Roman Eagle Banner", and this prop only has an effect on the Roman Legion.
After thinking about it for a while, Chu Tian realized that the relationship is very delicate.
The Roman Eagle Banner endows each Roman Legion with different abilities, and even if the lords of other civilizations capture the Roman Eagle Banner, they need to meet other conditions to make the Roman Eagle Banner effective.
Without meeting the conditions for recruiting the Roman Legion, the Eagle Banner is useless.
The fifteenth Apollo Legion of the Roman Empire, the ability is "recovery".
After the battle, injuries, morale, and physical strength can be recovered quickly so that they can enter the next battle.
This ability is very useful.
Needless to say, the importance of morale and physical strength.
When the army of the Arab Empire was hit by a meteorite and its morale collapsed, it was difficult for Khaled, the number one general of the Arab Empire, to regroup.
There is also an eagle flag.
Name: Roman Eagle Banner (XVIIth Legion)
Grade: special props, indestructible
Effect: Used to form the Seventeenth Legion of the Roman Empire
Legion: It was eliminated by the Germanic barbarians in the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest and was revoked by Octavian
Legion Ability: Doomed Legion with less luck.
"..."
Because Chutian recruited the Roman military general Varus, he knew that during the reign of Augustus Octavian of the Roman Empire, the Romans were annihilated by the Germanic barbarians in the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest. The 17th, 18th, and 19th legions.
These three legions were feared even by the Roman emperor, and they were regarded as unknown.
They are indeed relatively unlucky. Among them, the eagle flag of the 17th Legion was plundered by Chutian during the national war.
The 17th Legion, the 18th Legion, and the 19th Legion are the three least lucky Roman legions, and their combat effectiveness may also be the weakest, because they don't have their own capabilities like the "Apollo" legion.
Even so, it is better to have than to have nothing, and it is still a high-level legion.
After the two dusty eagle flags were taken out, Chutian handed them over to Varus, ordering him to form the 15th Apollo Legion and the 17th Legion of Misfortune of the Roman Empire.
Siphias formed the western teaching group of the Byzantine Empire.
Not only the elite legion of his own civilization, Chutian also began to recruit the elite legion of other civilizations.
He has more elite legions of other civilizations here, which is equivalent to indirectly weakening the strength of other civilizations and strengthening his own strength.
According to Chutian's prediction, it will take another year to form an effective fighting force.
It takes two months to recruit the Roman Legion, the initial level is 10, which is a recruit, and the training takes ten months.
Troop training can improve the level of the Roman Legion. At least the average level must reach level 40 before it can be regarded as leaving the recruit stage.
It also takes a year for each legion to reorganize, recruit, and train troops.
Raising soldiers for a thousand days and using them for a short period of time is not empty talk. In "The Lord", the existence of levels makes the gap in training soldiers more obvious.
A Roman legion with an average level of 100 can crush a Roman legion with an average level of 10, because the former is a division of a hundred battles, and the latter is a newly formed legion.
...
In West Asia, a large number of Mongolian, Turkic, and Persian cavalry launched an offensive against the remaining territories of the Persian Empire.
Wang Mingguan of Liaodong participated in Tuo Lei's conquest of the Persian Empire.
The Golden Family is determined to destroy the ancient and powerful Persian civilization. To this end, Tuo Lei bought many nobles and traitors of the Persian civilization.
A team from the east arrived on the plateau of West Asia.
Legendary lobbyist Wang Lang traveled thousands of miles under the order of Chutian, risking being discovered by the Jin family, starting from Dawan Kingdom in the Protectorate of the Western Regions, all the way west, and finally found Mingguan.
Wang Lang was wearing a turban and pretending to be a camel trader in the desert.
As a generation of Confucian scholars, he braved untold hardships, just like Ban Chao, walking on the Silk Road.
He came here for only one purpose...
"I've heard about the Duke's name for a long time, and I'm lucky to meet you now. Han Zuo is over, and the King of Xia followed the heavens, sweeping the world, calming all directions, and the fate of the world. Although the Duke was defeated, it was not a crime of war. Don't go against the sky and waste your hard work. Instead of serving treacherous evil, it is better to return to Huaxia and submit to the king of Xia, without losing the title of king."
Wang Lang saw the burly Mingguan, so he immediately tried his best to persuade Mingguan to surrender.
"..."
Ming Guan frowned deeply.
He was surprised to see the envoy Chutian sent to lobby him in West Asia, but he couldn't help wondering whether Chutian sent to lobby Wang Lang, the ghost talent, if he really wanted to recruit him.
After thinking for a while, Mingguan said: "I already understand what he means, you can get out."
Wang Lang asked again: "How about the public's reply?"
"roll."
Ming Guan gave Chang Yuchun a look, and suddenly lifted Chang Yuchun with one hand and threw Wang Lang out.
Wang Lang landed on his buttocks, patted the dust, with a frustrated expression on his face: "Now when I go back, how should I report to King Xia?"
Wang Lang spent a lot of time coming to West Asia, but he was kicked out just after speaking with Mingguan.
Chu Tian asked him to persuade Ming Guan to return to the Han Empire, but for Wang Lang, it was an impossible task.
