Just keep in mind that it wasn't uncommon for numbers to be wildly inflated to make an army seem more massive for future generations. So even though a source quotes 90,000 infantry, it's possible that not nearly that many were present and painted the Chi Ro symbol on the shield. Granted, if it was 9,000, thats still a lot of Chi Ro's running around though<br>
