A few weeks later, Appis found in the jungle a regular army that was different from the barbarian army, and their shield was not a round shield like that of the Gauls, but a large rectangular red shield, surrounded by an iron edge, the coat of arms in the middle was so bright, and the armor of the soldiers was not rough leather armor or linen. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info but a sophisticated chain mail, strong and complex dragon strike shoulder guards. Heavy javelins, iron helmets, all this indicates that this is no longer an army of barbarians, but a Roman legion!

The two-month jungle escape road can finally be declared over, Apis finally knows why ancient people believe in the gods, too many times, human beings will be cornered, fate is completely out of their own hands, life and death are rich and poor only in a thought, miss it, and never come back, just like this Roman legion that entered the forest, Appis only had one chance, he could catch up with them, tell them that he was still alive, there were survivors of the Seventh Legion, he was a member of the Roman legion, but if he missed it, He will spend forever in this forest, hiding from the endless pursuit of barbarians and the invasion of wild beasts.

"Stop!"

With hope, with longing, with joy after being rescued, Appis rushed out of the bushes with a loud cry.

But the Roman soldier who first spotted him reflexively raised his javelin, and luckily the centurion stopped the soldier's projection in time, because he found that the "barbarian" who rushed in front of him was not hostile, because he had no weapon in his hand, and what barbarian would be stupid enough to rush towards a thousand-strong army alone? Hearing that Abys's cry was Latin, the centurion was even more sure that it must have been a Gaul who was asking for help from the Roman legions, or a mad maniac.

"Stop."

Centurion Byblos, the second battalion of the 10th Legion, called out to Abyss. At this moment, Apis was a complete barbarian in front of them. A thick beard covered the chin and jaw, long hair that hung down and covered half of his eyes, and a crude and inferior throwing spear in his hand, and a huge bearskin cloak draped over his back. This dress, this look, is no different from the Germanic people in the northern Black Forest...... The only difference from the barbarians was that this primitive man spoke Latin fluently.

"What tribe are you from?"

The centurion questioned in a stern commanding tone, and all the legionnaires behind him stopped and looked at the strange barbarian with wary eyes.

"I am a Roman, the cavalry captain of the Eighth Legion Sabinus, I am the ...... of Appis"

Looking at the well-fed Roman infantry in front of him, Apis almost burst into tears of excitement, once upon a time, he was like this, eating warm bread, drinking shoddy wine, and living a "happy" life in the civilized world, but two months later, he had become a savage.

"Appis? Captain of the cavalry of the Eighth Legion? ”

Byblos looked at the barbarian in front of him with a suspicious gaze, he did not believe that a barbarian so dressed and down-and-out could be the cavalry captain of the legion, Sabinus's personal guard. But the fluent and standard Latin that came out of the mouth of this barbarian made Centurion Byblos dare not deny it in its entirety, in case there really were survivors of the Seventh and Eighth Legions? If what the barbarian in front of him said was true, then through him, Caesar could learn the whole story of the ambush in the forest, and even find traces of Sabinus.

"Yes, my name is Apis Gnaeus, Caesar knows me, and I want to see him."

Appis replied excitedly.

"You wait here."

Byblos was a little impatient, although the ragged barbarian in front of him did not look like a Roman knight at all, but judging from his fluent Latin and tone of voice, maybe this person was really a survivor of the Seventh and Eighth Legions, the key is that he said that Caesar knew himself, and ordinary people would not dare to say so, if Caesar saw him at that time, but did not know him, then the fate of deceiving the Roman officers would be terrible and harsh. With all sorts of doubts, Centurion Byblos quickly ran to the back of the team, trying to report this momentous discovery to his superiors.

Byblos hurriedly ran to the rear of the group, and in front, the soldiers of the hundred-man team surrounded Apis curiously, their mood was curious and excited, if what this barbarian said was true, then the story of this Roman officer named Apis will be a legend, the man who survived the massacre, and wandered alone in the forest for two months, evading countless barbarians, such a person in the eyes of the Romans, it is a miracle, there must be gods protecting him.

"Caesar, I found a barbarian, who said that he was the cavalry captain of the Eighth Legion, called Appis, and was the personal guard of General Sabinus."

Byblos ran up to Caesar out of breath. His words aroused great attention from Caesar. The place of these two legions and Sabinus in Caesar's heart is well known.

"Take me there."

Caesar gave a solemn order, and at the same time, the general guard around him followed the commander and galloped to the location where Apis was found.

When Caesar came to the place where the "barbarians" were found, it was already crowded with curious Roman soldiers. Caesar arrived, and the soldiers quickly made way for the commander.

"Caesar."

When he saw Caesar again, Apis was almost incoherent with excitement, wandering alone in the Black Forest for more than a month, without anyone to talk to, without a night's sleep, without cooked food to eat, and living a life of hunger, Apis felt that he had spent an inhuman life in this forest, like the wilderness survival training of special forces. And seeing Caesar again is like seeing a savior, if Caesar still recognizes himself......

"You're the captain of the original reconnaissance brigade in the Seventh Legion?"

Caesar's eyesight was extraordinary, and when he heard such a question, Apis knew that he was saved.

"Yes, I have been personally promoted by you on the Sambre River, great Caesar."

Although he had not spoken to anyone for more than a month, Abys's language skills had not deteriorated, and he still explained his identity to the commanders of the Roman legions with good etiquette. For a moment, Apis felt that he was so lucky, and if the Legion had found itself any longer, he would have degraded even his ability to speak.

Caesar looked at the "barbarian" in front of him, first surprised, then excited, and after a while, a smile of relief appeared on his face. Appis, the cavalry captain of the Eighth Legion, the personal guard of Sabinus, yes, all the information added up, Caesar confirmed the identity of the "barbarian" in front of him.

This is not only the discovery of a Roman survivor, but the special identity of Apis will solve Caesar's doubts, the forest massacre, this young man is likely to be by Sabinus's side, he witnessed the whole process of Sabinus's destruction, and, most likely, he is the only survivor of that forest ambush.

What's more, the people who can survive the crazy slaughter of the barbarians, the people who can still survive after wandering alone in the forest for two months, Apis's eyes at this moment, it is no longer as simple as finding a survivor, Caesar knows that what he has found is a "miracle", only those who are protected by the gods can survive in such an extreme environment, and publicize the deeds of Apis, tell all the legionnaires, the gods are with us, and the morale of the soldiers will be immediately boosted.
