Seven hundred and thirty-eight. Tribal leaders
In the attack on the Roman legions, not only 233 Roman soldiers were captured, but what was even more surprising was that Nelia, Caesar's favorite woman, was also captured.
Wang Weiyi is still a little curious about Nelia, not only because of her beauty, but because of her composure after being captured. This is not what a woman, especially a woman who falls into the hands of the enemy, should be.
Either this woman is really very calm and doesn't know what she is afraid of, or there is some secret in her heart.
Wang Weiyi is more inclined to the latter point.
So when he faced Nelia, he asked straight to the point, "Do you have anything to tell me?" β
In any case, Nelia did not expect that Ernst, who had saved her life, would be an enemy of the Romans. He behaved so fiercely on the battlefield that countless Romans died at his hands, which was completely different from the courtesy he showed when he treated himself.
"I want to tell you something you don't know......" Nelia was silent for a moment, and then said, "Have you heard of Ariovistus?" β
Wang Weiyi nodded.
This is a legend among the Germanic peoples. He led 15,000 warriors across the Rhine to fight against the entire Gallic tribe and defeated an enemy ten times his size. He continued to achieve victories until he met Caesar.
Ariovistus failed.
His wife and daughter faced a tragic fate, and two wives were killed. One daughter also died at the hands of the Romans, and the other became a prisoner.
"I'm the captive." Nelia said calmly.
"You're the daughter of Ariovistus?" Wang Weiyi was taken aback.
"Yes, I am the daughter of the great Ariovidus." Nelia nodded, "In the captive camp." I ran back and forth six times, but none of them succeeded. But I'm not reconciled, I'm looking for an opportunity to avenge my father and mother, and I'm sure that such an opportunity will come......"
Wang Weiyi was a little surprised that this woman still wanted to help her family avenge. But in times like these, it's inconceivable for a woman to do such a thing.
"Finally. Let me wait for the opportunity......" A frenzied flame flashed in Nelia's eyes: "When I reached the age of sixteen, I officially began the work that slaves should do, once. Caesar met me at the banquet, and he was quickly attracted to my beauty, and then I became his woman as a matter of course...... I did everything I could to please Caesar and gain his favor. And I managed to do it...... Caesar freed me from being a slave. He also gave me the status of a Roman citizen. I owe him a debt of gratitude for that. But no matter what, I can't forget the hatred of my family. So I waited for an opportunity to assassinate Caesar, but I never waited......"
Wang Weiyi completely understood.
The story of an ordinary woman avenging her family.
Ariovidus is said to be a great fellow, who can even make the children of Gaul cry at the sound of his name, and his daughter, who seems to have inherited her father's blood.
"So, what are you going to do now?" Wang Weiyi thought for a moment and asked.
Apparently, Nelia had already calculated: "Caesar must be very sad to lose me." I want to be at the time of the Roman legionary attack. You can let me go and let me go back to Caesar. Acting as your internal reciprocal reciprocal reciprocal to you, tell you all the actions of the Romans, so that Caesar and his Roman legions will have no secrets before you. β
Wang Weiyi did not answer immediately.
Female spy? There are many famous female spies in history. There are ancients, there are modern ones, there are them in the East, there are them in the West. However, Wang Weiyi is not very favorable for women to act as spies, although they are more likely to succeed than men.
But the sacrifice that a woman has to make to act as a spy is often very large.
Seeing that "Ernst" was hesitating, Nelia raised her voice slightly: "Lord Baron, I heard them call you that. Dear Baron, in my life, avenging my father, mother, and sister is my only wish, and you must grant me no matter what! β
The tone of her words was so firm that it was impossible to refuse. Wang Weiyi's eyes stared at her: "Are you really going to do this?" β
"Yes, no one can change my determination." Nelia replied more firmly.
"Okay, then I can promise you." Wang Weiyi thought for a while: "The attack of the Romans will come soon, when they start to attack, I will choose a suitable opportunity for you to run away from me, and you can return to Caesar's side......"
"Thank you, honorable baron, for giving me the opportunity to fulfill my wishes."
When Nelia said this, a pair of beautiful eyes were always looking at Wang Weiyi, which also made Wang Weiyi's heart pound.
However, now was not the time to use his brains, and although he had to admit that Nelia was full of special charm, Caesar's army was approaching here, and the most important thing now was how to lead the Germans through this crisis as quickly as possible......
When he came out of Nelia's place and saw that Leonie was already waiting for him, and when he saw Ernst, Leonie greeted him: "Dangerous times, huh? β
"yes, dangerous times." Wang Weiyi sighed: "I heard that even you killed someone?" β
Leonie smiled slightly: "I never thought that one day I would kill someone, that feeling is not good, and I am still scared until now." I really don't understand why you would be indifferent to taking so many lives on the battlefield. β
"On the battlefield, you can only be killed by your enemies if you don't kill your enemies." Wang Weiyi said as he walked forward: "I forgot when I first killed someone. I forgot how I felt at the time, but I thought it must be very sad...... Leonie, I've thought about it. The war will soon rekindle, and you really don't have a safe place here, so let's go back to the base with the two butlers, and wait until I repel Caesar's attack......"
"Nope." Before Wang Weiyi could finish speaking, Leonie had already interrupted him: "I don't want to be separated from you for even a minute now, this is a danger, but in my eyes." It's the happiest place. I don't know what happened to you in the past, but I can feel that I must have been separated from you for a long time......"
Wang Weiyi gently shook Leonie's hand.
Yes. They had been separated for a long time, they were able to get back together, and they had been through so much.
"I'll protect you." Wang Weiyi suddenly smiled faintly: "If a man can't even protect his own woman, what's the point of him living in this world?" β
Moment. Leonie only felt that she was already the happiest woman in the world......
"How's Nellia?" Leonie asked in passing.
"Ahh She is the daughter of Ariovistus. Wang Weiyi roughly told Nelia's life experience: "I am going to let her go back, this is also what she meant, I want to act as our spy and avenge her parents." β
Leonie fell silent suddenly, and after a moment said, "Ernst, I don't trust this woman. β
"Don't believe me?" Wang Weiyi was a little puzzled: "For what?" I believed what she said, and I think hatred burned in her heart. She was desperate to kill Caesar. β
"I can't tell you why." Leonie's voice was not high: "Anyway, the first time I saw her, I didn't believe her very much. Maybe it's a woman's jealousy? But I don't think that's entirely the case. Anyway. You have to watch out for this woman. β
Wang Weiyi smiled and didn't say anything.
Probably Leonie is right, women are always jealous, but she should really explain to Leonie that she doesn't have the heart to spend her energy on women at this stage.
He didn't say anything after that, and the arrival of Anliugus interrupted their conversation: "Honorable Baron, the people of all tribes have arrived. β
"Good!" Wang Weiyi cheered up: "Let them wait for me, I'll be there soon." β
οΌοΌοΌοΌοΌοΌ
All the Germanic tribal chiefs who came to the meeting never imagined that one day they would sit together and negotiate.
When the Romans arrived, they occasionally formed alliances to resist the invasion of the Roman legions for the common good, but as soon as the Romans retreated, the fighting between them would resume.
In addition to the integrity of the Germanian chieftain Anliugues, there was also a reason why the envoys of Anliugues told the chieftains that the Germanians had received help from the Holy German Empire and that they had found a way to drive out the Romans once and for all.
The shock of these words is self-evident to these tribal leaders.
Completely drive out the Romans? It's incredible. However, Anliugues never lied, and he was known to all the tribes for his honesty.
There was also a "Holy German Empire" that they had never heard of before, but it was certainly a great power that could rival the Roman Republic.
Driven by this thought, the chiefs mostly accepted the invitation of the Germannes......
When they reached the Germanian territory, they received even more shocking news that not long ago, the Germanians, led by "Baron Alexon", had defeated the Roman legions under the command of Caesar himself.
It is simply unbelievable that the Germanians actually defeated the Roman legions under the command of Caesar himself? No, it can't be, Caesar can't be defeated, even Ariovistus was defeated at Caesar's hands.
However, the sight of the Roman captives, the real Roman captives, in the Germanian camp, could not help but turn their suspicion into amazement.
The Romans were defeated, the Romans were really defeated!
At this time, all the leaders were already extremely eager to meet the magical "Baron Alexon......
They fulfilled their wishes.
In the company of the Germanian tribal leader Anliugus and their first warrior, Tibius. A man with a skull mask and a man with a mask of the Vulcan god Loki walked in slowly.
The tribal leaders were once again shocked.
Someone dared to use the fire god Loki as his mask, and this was not the most terrifying. The most terrifying thing is the one who wears the skull mask.
No one could clearly see the appearance of the person behind the skull mask, but this mask, which I don't know what material Lu Dao was made of, made people feel a chill from the bottom of their hearts.
Some people even thought in their hearts: This person must have been cursed by some demon......
"This is Baron Alexon, who was personally canonized by His Majesty the Holy Emperor of the German Empire...... And he was the assistant of Baron Alexon, who was also canonized by His Majesty the Emperor. Anliugers solemnly introduced Wang Weiyi and Richthofen to everyone, and then introduced the tribal leaders to them one by one.
The Vandals warranted Pelut, the Goths chieftain LΓΆlbis, and the Frankish chieftain Dadalut......
After introducing them one by one, Wang Weiyi didn't want to waste much time: "I think you all already know the Tao." We have defeated Caesar and his Roman legions, and Caesar is not willing to accept such a defeat, and a large number of Roman soldiers have already marched on the road to revenge. It's going to be red with blood in no time......"
"What does that have to do with us?" Dadalit was the first to say: "You are the one who defeated the Romans, and you are also the ones who will be avenged, are you ready to sacrifice our warriors to fight for you?" β
He asked very politely. But it did not anger Wang Weiyi: "Yes." It doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, but it's just for now. The Roman invasion did not begin today, they had already taken steps to conquer the area a few years earlier. This defeat has made him angry, do you really think that Caesar only wants to take revenge on us, but he does not see your existence? I don't think if you really have this idea, then you and the children will not have anything in common......"
He looked at the chiefs: "If we fail. Then the Romans would have killed all the Germanian men and captured all the Germanian women and children as their slaves. And then? Then I think it's your turn. As the Romans did to Germania, they will do to you, and any of you know better than I do with Caesar's cruelty and ruthlessness......"
The leaders looked at each other and fell silent.
At least this Baron Alexon was not wrong about one thing, Caesar and the cruelty of the Romans was something that every one of them had experienced.
"How many of you died when the Romans waged the first war, the Vandals' warrant for Pelut?" Anliugues asked.
An angry look appeared in Piliet's eyes: "I have lost 2,000 warriors, and a large number of my tribesmen have been captured by them, and in order to teach us a so-called lesson, many of the Vandals' corpses are hung on wooden racks and are not allowed to be taken down. My dear brother died at the hands of the Romans......"
"What about you? Laubis, the leader of the Goths? And you, Dadalut, the leader of the Franks? You, you, and you......" Anliugues' voice began to rise: "In each of our tribes, a large number of people died at the hands of the Romans, or became their slaves, and we, we were forced to pay such heavy taxes. What kind of life did we live before the Romans came? Under Ariovistus, we even almost perished Gaul. But now that the Romans came, everything changed, and we became a group of enslaved people...... However, although our strength is weak, we have never yielded to Caesar, and we have always fought, although we know that we will never be able to defeat the Romans with our own strength, but now an opportunity is placed in front of us, and Baron Alexon and his German Empire will be our greatest aid! β
At this time, Llolbis asked, "Dear Baron, how many brave soldiers have you brought to help us this time?" β
"I brought a total of seven people, but there are only four people who can really fight."
Wang Weiyi's answer not only disappointed these leaders, but some even showed mockery on their faces.
"I don't doubt your bravery, defeating Caesar is a good proof that you and your companions are warriors." Llolbis tried to make his voice sound as polite as possible: "But with only four men, ah, there are three more who can't fight...... Do you really think you can bring Caesar to his knees? β
"At least you're right." Wang Weiyi smiled and said, "Defeating Caesar is already a good indication that we have such ability. Yes, the four of us alone will not be able to achieve victory, and our Emperor His Majesty has no intention of directly sending troops to intervene......"
Richthofen's face behind the mask smiled.
Your Majesty our Emperor, has no intention of directly sending troops to intervene? Where did Ernst go to find what troops of the German Empire? Is it really to let Xiao Ling appear with the base?
Wang Weiyi continued: "But one thing I am sure of is that the end of Caesar and the Roman legions is coming! β
Suddenly, this sentence caused a commotion among the leaders. (To be continued......)
