"Land and cattle and sheep? And without handing over any hostages? What is your purpose? Don't think I don't know, you just see that the tribal alliance is too strong for you to defeat us, so you want to divide us and surround the lone tribes, this is your ruse. But I will tell you, however www.biquge.info, that your ruse cannot be fulfilled with me, for I have no intention of leaving, and taking my people southward to settle in a strange and barren land. The current tribal alliance is so powerful. ”

The Gallic emissary sent by Apis to persuade the Germanic tribes met with a setback with the Hinterre, for the chief of this tribe was not at all tempted by any wealth or land, and even saw that it was a treacherous ploy of the Romans, and he sat on his chieftaincy, and looked at the Celtic messenger sent by the Roman legions as if he were an enemy.

But these Celtic envoys sent by Apis were not ordinary barbarians, they were all the more intelligent officer figures in the Gallic Confederates, and in the face of the domineering answer of the leader of the Cintres, the Celtic envoy said tactfully-

"Yes, noble tribal chieftain, the Romans have such a treacherous plan."

“？”

The chief of Hinterre had intended to arrest him and give him to the great chieftain of the tribe after listening to the Roman envoy, but the next moment, he heard an uncharacteristically uncharacteristically answer from the Roman envoy. Such an answer made the leader of the tribe momentarily confused, not knowing what to say, could it be that this messenger had come to surrender to him? But, in an atmosphere of calm and silence, the Celts continued-

"Even the Romans are planning to bribe more of your tribes to settle south, and then kill those who are still in the forest one by one. The stratagem is so simple, you can see it, wise patriarch. But if you think about it, if the Great Clan Alliance really defeats Rome, will you really gain the benefits? ”

"What do you want to say? Lackeys of the Romans. ”

The leader of the Cintre was a little impatient with the messengers sent by Appis. He clenched his fists and slammed them on the table, letting out a beast-like roar.

"What would happen if this great alliance of tribes really defeated the Roman legions? I suspect that the most powerful Suebi tribes in the alliance will not be given the land that is rightfully yours, but will occupy the most fertile land in Gaul and give you some remote places, or will not give you any territory at all. There's a good chance it will happen, isn't it? Chief, you know the Suebi better than I do, better than anyone else, and I heard on my way here that your tribe had been forced to the point where the Suebi tribes had cornered it, and that it was for this reason that you had invaded Gaul several times. ”

The Celtic envoy spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly, but his words almost drew the wrath of the leader of the Hinterley tribe once again. It was only the elders on the side who felt that the Celts had a point, and they stopped the leader's thunderous rage.

"Go on, messenger of the Romans."

An Elder Hintley nodded and motioned for Appis' messenger to continue.

"In fact, you must know that Rome does not always give such rich conditions, it only gives such conditions in special periods, and now, such special periods. The reality was that Apis was not incapable of defeating the Great Union of Suebi, but that it would cost the Roman legions dearly, and Apis was unwilling to expend all his financial resources, so he resorted to such peaceful means. Yes, you and I both know that it was his manoeuvre and conspiracy, but it's good for both of us, isn't it? ”

The Celtics went on to say.

"Bastard! The horde army is about to defeat you, you will be cornered, I have abandoned the tribe, and after they have defeated you, they will come and slaughter my tribe. ”

The chief of Hinterre finally couldn't help but interrupt the Roman envoy.

"Defeat Rome? Oh, it can't be. In fact, my tribe had tried so hard before, but you know, the Romans were not just a few legions. You have defeated Lepida, and now there is an Apys, and if Apis dies again, then Antony and Octavian will come. The whole of Rome is against you, how can you resist it with a single Suebi? Wake up, what you are fighting now is only the tip of the iceberg of the power of Rome. And the Suebi tribe was too timid to confront Appis head-on. ”

Faced with the enraged leader of the Hinterley, the Celtic messenger continued to answer with a calm voice of reason. And such an answer was very reasonable in the eyes of the tribal elders present...... Because it is indeed true, Apis only brought a legion of tens of thousands of people, and the Suebi tribe will not dare to confront it head-on, and in the future, if Antony returns, then no matter how strong the tribal alliance is, there is no possibility of victory. Today's Rome is not the Rome of the past.

"He's got a point, Felix. Perhaps we should seize this opportunity to seek a land of peace for our people. The Suebi is not to be trusted! ”

One of the clan elders stood up and proposed.

"Then the Romans can be trusted?"

Felix, the leader of the clan, roared loudly.

"At least we will be able to get a piece of land in no time, and we won't have to let our people bleed and die. In every battle, the Clan Alliance always puts our men at the forefront. Can't you see their sinister intentions? ”

The tribal elder continued to press. The Celtic envoy only secretly responded with an approving look, for before that, Appis's two hundred dinars had been passed into the hands of the tribal elder through his hands. Two hundred dinars was nothing to the Romans living in the metropolis, but it was a considerable income and wealth for the Germanic people living in the boreal forest.

……

"Okay, okay. Let me think it through tonight before I make a decision. ”

Eventually, at the suggestion of more and more elders and priests, the chief Felix began to consider the terms of accepting the Romans. The Celtic envoys were temporarily imprisoned pending the leader's final decision. If Felix had decided to lean toward Rome, the Celts could be released as guides to the south. If the leader decided not to cooperate with the Romans, the war-tongued Celtic would be separated from the corpse...... Fortunately, that night, at the persuasion of the wife of the chieftain Felix, the powerful tribal leader finally agreed to the Romans' terms.

Then the men and women of all the tribes began to pack their belongings and food that night, most of them were cattle, sheep and horses, for the Germanic peoples grain was not important, cattle, sheep, pigs, horses, were the necessary conditions for their survival......
