Asina stands up, he seemed surprised
"Tribunus Cotta, do not be so hasty, for the congressional session has only started (ooc: a few hours ago); and also, edict 1.2, which if passed allows you to take up the post, has not had its required seconds"
Asina then turns towards the Emperor
"thank you, sir for appointing me the commander of Legio I Apulia, I shall not fail in my duties"
Asina pauses for a moment, and thinks, before continuing,
"and the triarii you mentioned of disbanding, perhaps the 2 units of them and units of acensi, leves or roarii may be rallied to form another legion, so as we may use them to capture the rest of Italia, before disbanding them, or re-enlisting them for further service."
Asina pauses again
"however, if we really need the denarii, perhaps the fleet stationed at the port in Eturia may be disbanded, as its maintainance cost is more than the upkeep cost of the 2 triarii we have, and we have no overseas dominions to protect"
