"That was a momentary anger. In fact, Hiros is a very nice man, and he is very humble. He often asks me questions." Anticris said straightforwardly: "Besides, my two new sons-in-laws are new citizens. , Especially the eldest son-in-law, but the team leader! See if there is no, over there... the tall man in the white helmet is my eldest son-in-law!"

"I said Anticris, what a squad captain is! How many people are in charge! I think you and I were even the captain before." Stromboli disapproved.

"That's different. We were appointed by the Archon because of the aristocracy. However, according to Trotiras, Archon Daves stipulated that,'The leader of the squadron must have a hundred battles and get soldiers. Our recognition was elected by them and approved by their superiors before they could serve.' Therefore, we can command the soldiers who are equally experienced and proud." Anticris said proudly.

Stromboli didn't speak anymore. No matter how much he stabs, he can't deny the persian expeditionary army's strength. He can command them because of his extraordinary natural ability.

Christoia looked at Davers standing high in the middle of the square with cheers, her eyes blurred: this is the husband she chose during the war. It turns out that her vision is correct. Daves realized him. Ideal!

"Your Archon is so majestic!" A clear voice awakened her, and she knew it was Andrea without turning her head. A few days ago, Christoya learned about Andrea's story during a small chat with Daves, and was moved by her infatuation. She asked Andrea to help her because she was running a bank and lacking staff. Andrea readily agreed, and soon the two became friends. And with the shield of Mrs. Daves Christia, the gossip and blank eyes of Andrea are much less.

"Why do you like Daves?" Kristia teased.

"Madam, don't laugh at me." Andrea groaned.

"I heard that Daves ordered the Lucanians to come and watch the ceremony. After the end, I asked Daves to arrange for you to meet him, how about?" Kristia said seriously.

Andrea generously expressed her gratitude: "Thank you Madam!"

Christoya looked back at her and talked: "Are you really going to wait for him for five years?"

Andrea nodded without hesitation.

Kristia sighed, remembering what Daves had said, and said: "Then you should persuade Baggul, take care of his people, don’t make mistakes, and earnestly complete all the tasks assigned by the city-state. This kind of task, once the city-state has any major action, actively participate in it, strive to make merits, and shorten the five-year time limit as soon as possible!..."

Andrea nodded heavily.

Christoya stroked her face with emotion: "My sister sincerely hopes that your wait will not be too long, and your wish will eventually come true!"

Andrea bit her lip, crying.

……………………………

Military officer Felicius stepped forward and said loudly: "Now, on behalf of the Senate, I announce the establishment of the First Army of Amendorara! The commander of the army is served by the life-long consul Daves!"

The audience cheered.

"Grant the flag of the First Legion!"

The sound of the bugle sounded, and the square was solemn.

Philipsius looked solemn, holding a four-meter-long flag in both hands. Daves took it respectfully with both hands, raised it high, and slowly circled it on the platform.

Mersis shouted from the sidelines: "Did you see it! That was what I spent several days designing carefully and urging people to make it specifically, is it beautiful?!!!"

"You designed it?" Mariji's face was full of suspicion.

Mercis laughed dryly: "I said I slid, it was Davers who designed the flags, but without me, these flags could not be made so quickly!"

The soldiers held their breath and looked up at the golden flag in the sky. At the top of the flag was the brass statue of Hades holding a double-stranded fork. ), the statue is surrounded by a red fluffy flag, and the straight flagpole is covered with a stretched square red wool and linen thick cloth. The flag is embroidered with the golden Greek "First Legion". On the other side, there is a Venus painted in the middle, and Daves is pointing at this Venus, and loudly said to the soldiers in the audience: "Brothers of the First Legion, this Venus represents your annihilation of the Lucanian tribe's coalition forces. , To regain Amendorara, the honor of being the founder of the new army of Amendorara, it is unique!"

The soldiers cheered loudly, straightened their chests, and looked at the shining flag of Venus with pride in their eyes.

"Next, every time you win a big victory, there will be a gold star drawn on it, so that the people will remember your achievements! I hope you will use your continuous victories to make the gold stars all over this legionary banner!" Daves's The earnest expectation made the soldiers cheered with excitement: "Wansheng!"

"Wansheng!!"

"Wansheng!!!"

…………………………

The morale of the soldiers in the square rose to its peak.

"In the decades since I participated in the city-state fighting, I have never heard of such a military banner! Such a way of inspiring morale! As a citizen soldier, fighting under such a military banner is such an honor!!" An Tiklis looked at the flag very yearningly.

"I heard that there is a statue of Hades inlaid on the top of this banner. This is Daves's vague claim that he is the patron of Pluto!" Stromboli said dissatisfied.

"Isn’t it said that many people think this is true!" Anticris said disapprovingly. It’s a good thing to come to die! It can be expected that our First Legion will become a terrible army! It’s a pity that I can’t fight under the banner of Hades!"

…………………………

"Martius, the standard bearer of the First Legion, please come to the stage to receive the flag!" Felicius shouted.

Martius, the usually brave captain of the guard, couldn't help feeling a little nervous at this moment. He tightened his armor again, adjusted his helmet again, and stepped on the stage solemnly, standing on his feet, standing in front of Daves. , Right fist slammed into the left chest.

Daves also returned to the military salute and said loudly: "The Legion’s standard bearer is the bravest soldier in the whole army. It is the highest honor! I hope you will hold the battle flag high on the battlefield, no matter how big the front is. Danger, always move forward, and encourage the whole army to win!"

Martius solemnly took over the flag and solemnly swore: "Hades is here, and I, Martius, will love the flag like my own eyes, and will always move forward and never retreat!"

Amidst the cheers, Matonis whispered: "If I hadn't been the company captain, the standard bearer would have been mine!"

"Let’s invite Captain Capus of the First Group to take the stage to accept the flag of the First Group!"

Before Capus left, the soldiers behind him began to urge. The team: "Captain, hurry up! Go and pick up the flag!..."

Kapus stepped onto the stage unhurriedly.

Daves took the team flag from the guard, held it in his hand, and said to Caps with earnest words: "The first group of the legion is an example of the whole army, the elite of the elite! In battle, where is the most difficult? , Where is the most dangerous, the first brigade must rise to the challenge and open the door to victory for the whole army! I hope you keep this in mind!"

"The First Battalion of the First Legion will definitely not let you down, Lord Archon. The First Battalion will always be the spear of the whole army!" Capus's tone was as strong as a stone.

He has knotted the flag of the First Battalion. Take a closer look: Unlike the legion flag, its top is an iron statue of Thanatos, the **** of death under Hades, and he is holding a sword and wearing black. Robe with open wings and a hideous complexion. On the flagpole below the statue is also a red flag. The vamp is embroidered with the golden Greek word "First Corps First Brigade", and the reverse is also a gold star...

Kapus waved the banner, and the soldiers of the First Battalion in the audience cheered and thundered.

Next to the stage was Dracos, the captain of the Second Team. He had not healed from his injuries and was still in a bandage, but he was still fully armed. When he staggered onto the stage, the soldiers under the stage cheered encouragingly.

Looking at this tough guy who had fought with him, Davers asked with concern: "Drax, how are you?"

"The doctor said it's okay." Dracos looked calm. Facing Davers who had beaten him, he now only had respect in his heart: "Thank you, Lord Archon for your concern!"

"The battle with the Allied Forces of Lucania gave me a glimpse of the bravery of the soldiers of the Second Battalion. But to be honest, compared with the First Battalion, there is still a big gap between you. I hope you will be in the future. During the training, restrain them in accordance with military laws, train them, and let them catch up as soon as possible!" Daves said with eager expectations.

"Lord Archon, don't worry, the second team will not lose to anyone!" Drax said firmly.

When Hieronymus, the captain of the third team, came to power, Daves didn't say much, because he knew Hieronymus would work hard to train his team.

When Captain Epithenis of the Seventh Group came to power, the nimble captain took the initiative to ask Davers: "My lord, you see that my group has the least number of people, and there are still four hundred talents. . Can you allow me to send people to Thrace, Crete and Rhode Island to recruit some light shield soldiers, archers and slingers?"

"To be a free citizen in Amendola?" Daves asked rhetorically with a smile.

"Of course, I started as a freedman, and then in accordance with the requirements of your previous proposal in the Senate, Lord Archon, I will apply to become an Amendora citizen in a few years." Epithenis laughed.

Davers is happy to see this happen, but he reminds Epithenis.
