News of Caesar's defeat had not yet reached Rome, and the only thing Pompey and the Senate were now worried about was Caesar's growing power and prestige.

If this continues, it will probably be difficult for them to control Caesar again.

And Pompey came up with an idea at this time, and when the barbarians on the other side of the Rhine had not yet been conquered, he couldn't wait to establish the province of Germania, and appointed Jolus as the governor of the province to divide Caesar's power.

Of course, there is also a certain danger in this, will this anger Caesar? After all, it was Caesar himself who was conquering there. Caesar was not one to give up his rights.

But Pompey decided to give it a try as much as he could......

．．．．．．

The next morning, two consuls and fifteen senators arrived at Pompey's mansion as usual, ready to wait for Pompey's summons to begin his business for the day, for although Pompey slept only seven hours a day, he hated to get up early. But today was a little different, and as soon as these Roman dignitaries arrived on the Palatine Hill, Pompey's most trusted subordinate, Belusis, who had been waiting for them for them, immediately brought them to Pompey.

Several important issues were discussed first, and decisions were made quickly: to continue to send Roman legions from all over the country to the Danube to support Caesar in order to assist him in extinguishing the rebellion there; Appointed Gellius as commander-in-chief of this great army. At the same time, Sentumaros was appointed governor of the newly formed province of Germania.

In fact, these people all know the so-called aid Caesar. It was only to oversee him and to decentralize his power......

And in prayer for victory in this war, Rome made sacrifices to the temples of the gods.

This was followed by a discussion of minor issues: whether to raise taxes on imported luxury goods such as silk, precious stones, and spices; Whether to increase the original three juries to four. Let the newly added one deal with small claims; The question of whether or not it was necessary to rebuild a road to Gaul was almost entirely a matter of Pompey's opinion, and the morning passed in the course of work.

When the official document with the seal of the Senate was delivered to Sentumaros, since the province of Germania was under the direct control of the Senate, he was now the governor of Germania, with only a symbolic ceremony.

Sentumaros glanced at the document and placed it on his desk. Then he handed the butler who was waiting beside him a list that had just been drawn up: "Let the people on the list come to Rome as soon as possible, and let those who are in the provinces go directly to Germania, and say that Centoumarus needs them; Prepare the clothes I'm going to wear for the afternoon meeting. Remember not to darken; Also, tell Achelia and Amazon that I'll be taking them back to their hometowns soon; Also, come here in an hour to pick up a few letters. ”

After speaking. He's back to work......

．．．．．．

The afternoon sun shines his proud light on Mount Albaron. Nineteen kilometers from Rome, the holy mountain was filled with Roman citizens, and all the Roman families sent their representatives, among which almost all of the Quintilius family of Centoumarus were ready to celebrate the glory of the family.

Presiding over the popular assembly today is the famous Ostio of the Senate, who was also a member of Pompey's cabinet. Beside him stood the three priests of Rome, the altar in the center of the clearing burning with a raging fire, and the sacrifices to be sacrificed were neatly laid aside.

"I swear! With all my passion: I will never betray my country! Nor will any Roman citizen be allowed to abandon her in her time of danger! O great and supreme Jupiter. If I break my vow, let me die in the most shameful way possible! ”

Sentumaros, dressed in a milky toga robe, solemnly took an oath in front of the altar. The brilliant light of the fire reflected on his rather handsome face. His usually indifferent eyes seemed to have a flame beating in them at this moment.

Bundles of long ribbons of wool dyed red were carefully tied to the sacrifices and thrown into the fire by the priests.

"We prove: Plyubus. Quinc Tilius. Sentumaros made his pledge before God and at the popular assembly in Rome! May the gods protect him and bring more glory to Rome! ”

The three gray-haired priests stretched out their hands and lifted them up to the sky, as if to embrace the sunlight that poured down on the earth.

Theo walked to the altar, put a provincial consul's garment on Sentumalus, looked into his eyes and said solemnly: "Sentumaros, don't forget your oath, remember, the people of Rome are watching you!"

Sentumaros turned around and silently looked at the crowd cheering his name around him, five captains lined up beside him, they held the axes of the consuls aloft, these are battle-hardened Roman veterans, from today on, they are the escort of Sentumaros, they will not leave their commander's side unless they die, this is the greatest glory that Rome gives her warriors.

Representatives of the various families in turn stepped forward to bless Sentumaros, then some prominent Roman citizens, and women scattered flower petals on their heroes......

After all the ceremonies, the crowd of the Holy Mountain formed a crowd and marched towards the city of Rome with Sentumarus and his guard of honor, and the elders of the family of Quintilius proudly walked at the front.

In the evening, the new governor of Germania returned to his mansion. At the secret meeting within the family just now, the elders of the Quintilius family agreed to all of Sentumaros's demands without much thought: first, prepare a large sum of money for Sentumarous, which will be mainly used to reward the soldiers so that they can love Sentumarus even more; Sentumaros can command all the "Cronions" of the Quinctilius family; The family's arms workshops in places such as Putaioli and Norek had to push off large orders as much as possible, and were ready to meet the needs of Sentumaros as much as possible.

As soon as I walked into the front hall, my delicate and plump body came to my back. The familiar fragrant aroma also came to his nose, and a pair of slender arms wrapped around Sentumaros's neck, and the plump lips leaned against his ears and said, "Ruthless Sentumaros!" ”

Sentumaros gently took the man behind him into his arms. After bowing his head and kissing her on the forehead, he smiled: "Dear Singaroa, my heart melted when I saw you. ”

Lying in his arms, Singaroa was a famous Roman beauty, one of Sentumaros's lovers, her ebony hair scattered over her shoulders, her eyes dark and shiny, and her long, velvety eyelashes. The pink skin seemed to see the blood flowing inside. At this moment, her small nose, which looks like an ivory carving, is curled angrily, and it looks very cute.

"Hmph, coax me again. You can't bear to leave me and run away to that desolate Germania, and say that you are not ruthless? Singaroa gently reached out and slapped Sentumaros's chest, and said with a sweet smile: "But you look good in this dress......"

Zingaroa fiddled with the ornaments on Sentumaros' official uniform with his fingers.

"It's desolate, but there's a lot of precious amber. I will pick the best one and bring it back to my goddess. But. No amount of beautiful amber can compare to Singaroa's face. Sentumaros kissed the lips of the beautiful woman in her arms.

"I don't want any amber, and if I had a choice, I'd rather have you with me than with the barbarians." Singaroa sighed faintly.

"Hehe, my Singaroa, it is these barbarians you said that we have a headache to the extreme, and even the invincible Caesar cannot completely conquer them." Sentumaros said with a smile.

"That's right, dear Sentumaros. It's a good thing you don't have to fight them this time, or I'd be worried about death!" ”

"Oh. Is it? Sentumaros' brow jumped imperceptibly.

"Hehe, I have just heard that you know that I am good friends with Marcina, the wife of Macenas, and she secretly told me that it seems that Caesar may really conquer the barbarians this time, and maybe the war will be over when you get there."

Singaroa looked happy, but she didn't realize that her lover had made huge waves in his heart.

"You don't have to worry about it this time, do you? Otherwise, if a hint of sadness appears on your morning star-like face, I'm afraid the gods won't bless me. Sentumaros said softly, still with his charming smile.

"Alas, how good it would be for you to say these words to me alone, I heard that you went to Fan Liyana's villa the day before yesterday, accompanied her to fish for an afternoon, and bought two beautiful female gladiators." Singaroa pursed his lips again, and Centumaros hurriedly coaxed and explained, and made countless wishes, before he coaxed the Roman beauty to be happy.

After finally sending Singaroa away, Sentumaros walked back and forth a few times anxiously, and a thought came to his mind more and more strongly: "Rush to Germania as soon as possible, and never let all the credit be monopolized by Caesar again." ”

He quickly made up his mind.

The driver of Sentumaros' carriage was hastily called, and he was surprised to see that his master had changed into his suite. "Akdi, I remember you always said you were the best racing driver in Rome, right?" Sentumaros said briefly.

"If anyone can be faster than me, I can only think that he is the sun god Apollo who came to the mortal world." Akedi replied angrily.

"Well, now is a chance to prove that you are not boasting. You are to send me to Germania in the shortest possible time, and if your speed satisfies me, the manor outside Capua that you envy is yours!" Now go and get on your horse, and we'll be off in a moment. In addition, we will not rest on the way, except for changing horses at the post station. ”

"However, I must warn you, my master, that even if I were as fast as the wind, I would not be able to reach the Rhine in a day, and that if I drove the carriage day and night, I would be in great danger to your safety, my lord."

"When you're tired, I'll drive, and we'll take turns resting." After saying this, Sentumaros didn't give Acdi another chance to rap, and waved his hand to signal that he could go and prepare......

．．．．．．

"Alright, Lord Baron, it's safe for now." Back in his camp, Anliugues said excitedly.

Indeed, he ought to have rejoiced that this time he had not only defeated the formidable Caesar, but had also captured a great deal of booty.

"Distribute the spoils to all." Wang Weiyi thought about it and said, "Those are the bravest fighters in battle. You can be rewarded more than others, and there are more strong people than thin people, and more men than women. There are more women than the elderly and children. ”

"Yes, everything is as you command, my lordship." Anliugues said respectfully.

Wang Weiyi smiled: "Although we have won this time, Caesar will definitely not give up, if I am not mistaken, Caesar and his Roman legions are already on the way to revenge." ”

"We don't have to be afraid of them at all!" Tibius, who was young and vigorous, cried out: "We have the bravest warriors, and the Romans have come several times. We beat them a few times. ”

Wang Weiyi glanced at him, and then asked slowly, "Tibius, how many Romans can you kill?" ”

"Thirty. And even more! Tibius said proudly.

"What an amazing warrior." Wang Weiyi smiled again: "However, there are 3,000 Romans, 30,000 soldiers, can you kill the light alone?" ”

Tibius froze there.

Wang Weiyi put away his smile: "The Romans are powerful. It's not something you can imagine. They have far more soldiers than ours. Caesar could lose a legion and then replenish it again, but what about us? There are only so many of us, and every time we lose one, we lose one point less in the amount of strength. We can win victory after victory, but the Romans can bring in legions after legions, and the war drags on to the last minute, and I think it is we who lose. ”

Although I think what the Baron said is reasonable. Tibius said unwillingly: "Then what to do? Let's accept defeat and become slaves to the Romans? ”

"Nope. No one can make us slaves. Wang Weiyi said calmly: "Although our strength is not as good as that of Rome, it is not impossible for us to win, but in order to win, it is not enough to rely on us Germanians." ”

Speaking of this, he set his eyes on Anliugos: "Anliugus, have you been contacted by all the tribes I asked you to contact?" ”

"Yes, Lord Baron." Anliugues quickly replied: "The Vandals, the Goths, the Teutons, the Franks, and the Cimbrians were willing to participate in the negotiations you are talking about, but the Burgundians refused to participate...... Their leader will be able to reach us tomorrow. ”

"It doesn't matter, they'll all work with us sooner or later." Wang Weiyi said confidently: "As long as we continue to win, I believe that more and more tribes will join us!" ”

These are the part of the future Germanic peoples, a heroic and warlike people.

Especially the Cimbri and Teutons.

In 113 BC they encountered the Romans, who were almost completely wiped out in a battle between the two peoples. The Germans took a sudden storm as a warning to their climate god and therefore halted the war.

In 109, 107 and 105 BC, the Romans repeatedly fought against these two Germanic groups, but were defeated each time. It was not until after the division of these two peoples that the Romans defeated the Teutons in 102 BC and the Cimbri in 101 BC.

The breakthrough of the Cimbris and Teutons into the central mountains inhabited by the Celts dealt a heavy blow to the strength of the Celts in central and southern Germany today. Later, other Germanic peoples, such as the Swiby, were able to settle in present-day Hesse and the Main River valley. Under their leader, Ariovistus, they even broke into Gaul, but were defeated by Caesar there in 58 BC and forced to retreat east of the Rhine.

Despite their defeats, these Germanic tribes were always the most troublesome tribes for the Romans, and no matter how hard the Romans tried, they could not truly conquer them.

And now, something that terrifies the Romans even more is happening, and one man is preparing to merge all the Germanic forces together and become the most powerful force through his own efforts!

This man is Baron Alexon!

"Lord Baron, do you really believe in those tribes?" Tibius was still a little worried: "You know, they have been fighting with us in the past. ”

"yes, we're constantly fighting each other." Wang Weiyi sighed: "When the Cimbrian and Teutons united, the Romans could not defeat them at all, and they caused the mighty Roman legions to suffer defeat after defeat. Later, however, they were divided, which gave the Romans the best chance to survive, and the Cimbrie and Teutons were finally defeated. Have you thought about what to do, Tibius? ”

Tibius was silent.

Wang Weiyi said in a daze: "If we can unite all the tribes, then we will be the most powerful force, but unfortunately, we are now caught in the infighting between each other, which is what the Romans are most happy to see, and what we have to do now is to integrate with the Cimbrians and the Teutons again, and become a powerful, invincible force, and make the Roman legions suffer a humiliating defeat earlier!" ”

Tibius gradually understood.

Yes, he could have imagined how terrifying and powerful it would be when all the tribes became one.

But now the only question is, will the Baron be able to do all this?

Wang Weiyi was not so worried about this, he knew that this was a strong world, especially the victory that had just been achieved, would definitely enhance their confidence.

The rudiments of a Germanic nation have gradually appeared before his eyes! (To be continued......)
