The shocking news reached Caesar's ears.

He couldn't believe that the Fifteenth Legion would be wiped out in such a form, and although he had expected Sentumaros's defeat before, he still wanted to use Sentumaros's hands to destroy more barbarians anyway.

But it was clear that he was wrong. The barbarians used it so specially. In such a dismaying way, the fifteenth legion was wiped out cleanly.

Even Sentumaros himself became a captive of the barbarians.

A great threat was coming at him, and Caesar was already feeling a powerful crisis......

Along with the barbarians' victories, their self-confidence grew, and perhaps it would not be long before the Germanic barbarians would reappear in Gaul on the other side of the Rhine.

The sad mood of the rabbit and the fox is now the best portrayal of Caesar. Although he was not satisfied with Sentumaros, the young commander was still a Roman after all.

It was absolutely impossible to get Caesar to pay the ransom - just yesterday the barbarians sent their messenger to tell Caesar that if Sentumarus was to be released, the Romans would have to pay the price of thirty Aureth.

Crazy, the barbarians are really crazy, Centoumarus is definitely not worth thirty Aurees!

And what made Caesar even more frightening was that the barbarians actually knew how to use hostages to demand ransom.

They were civilized, they were getting closer and closer to the habits of the Romans, which was fraught with a sense of crisis for both Caesar and the Romans.

Instead of rejecting the barbarians' messengers, Caesar brought the news back to Rome. Let Sentumarous's family and the guys in the Senate worry about it.

And by this time, his legion had quietly crossed the Rhine.

At first, Gaius, who accompanied Caesar on his expedition again, thought that Caesar was going to help Sentumaros. But he soon found out that he was wrong. After crossing the Rhine, Caesar headed for the opposite.

And they went to target the Germanic territories that were still subservient to Rome.

When Gaius finally couldn't help but raise his doubts, Keith told him very clearly that the barbarians, who appeared to be superficially subservient to the Romans—the Saxons, the Lombards, the Cherushi, and the Dunktores—were plotting a revolt.

This surprised Gaius, who had never imagined that the barbarians, who had been submissive to the Roman conquest, would be planning a terrible revolt.

"That's news from my loyal Greek subordinate Tenadus." Caesar said slowly, "I have appointed Tenadus to be stationed there. I manage the barbarians for me, and they are used to spy on them. Although the barbarians are still superficially subservient to us, the revolt is quietly going on. They thought Tenadus was just a Greek who liked to be wise. But they were all wrong, and there was no one smarter than Tenadus......"

Gaius nodded silently.

Caesar's face was gloomy: "Fortunately, these barbarians, led by the Saxons, did not unite with the barbarian alliance. Otherwise, it will be our greatest disaster. However, I will not allow a riot to happen. I must resolutely suppress this terrible thing before it happens......"

"I would like to listen to you, honorable governor." Gaius said calmly.

He also felt that he was very lucky that the Saxons had not united with the barbarian alliance, otherwise he would have been really bad this time.

News had already arrived from Rome that Ernst was doing his best in Rome and was working for him, and Ovis and his wife of the Senate sent him letters before and after, and Pompey and the Senate made it clear that as long as Gaius remained loyal to Rome. Then even if something terrible happens in the future, he will definitely not be implicated in anything.

Gaius thanked Ernst for all the hard work he had done...... He was even more grateful that the Saxons had not united with Ernst. Otherwise, how could he exterminate them?

He didn't have to worry about what kind of Lombards these Saxons were living.

Let the barbarians destroy in their own hands......

．．．．．．

At this time, the leader of the Saxons, Herman, did not know that his plot had been revealed.

He didn't believe in the Romans, nor in any Germanic alliance, the only thing he believed in was the weapons in his hands, and as long as he relied on himself, he would be able to defeat the Romans who ruled him.

In Caesar's first punitive battle, Heilmann made a clear choice: ostensibly loyal to the Romans, preserving the Saxons' strength and avoiding their harm. And when the time comes, then he will lead all the clansmen to revolt.

Choice, this opportunity has arrived...... Caesar's legion was defeated at the hands of the Barbarian League, and his strength was greatly damaged, and Heilman made his own judgment: even if he knew that the rebellion had broken out, Caesar would not have the strength to continue to suppress it.

But he had no idea of Caesar's character, and the more he was defeated, the more stoic Caesar became, and the less he would allow betrayal of himself to happen.

The only thing that made Heilmann unhappy now was the leader of the Germanic League, the so-called consul Ernst. Brem refused his request and joined forces with himself.

In the previous cooperation negotiations, Heilmann put forward several demands, such as his own alliance, never to join the Germanic alliance, and never accept the leadership of the so-called Germanic consuls, they must be independent.

The reason why Heilmann made such a request so confidently was that he believed that the Germanic League needed the help of the Saxon League, and he could make all kinds of demands with a lion's mouth. But what he didn't expect was that the other party didn't eat his own set at all.

"We could have succeeded without their help." At a new conclave, Heilman said firmly: "We don't need anyone's help. With our own strength, we will be able to defeat the Romans! Right now, the Romans don't have a lot of troops with us. With only about two hundred men, I have decided to revolt tomorrow night, kill all the Romans, and restore our freedom! ”

"What if Caesar sends reinforcements?" Keruman, the leader of the Lombards, raised his own concerns.

"Caesar wasn't so quick to react." Heilman said disdainfully, "Besides, even if he knew that we were in rebellion, he would not have the time and strength to deal with us. Ouyle, the revered leader of the Dunkterre, ask you to lead three hundred warriors of your tribe. Let's tear down the bridges over the Rhine. I've heard that the Germanic League has burned those bridges once, so let them face this nightmare again! ”

"It's my pleasure. Heilman! Uir made a high-spirited promise.

"Honorable tribal leaders." Heilmann reiterated their bizarre plan: "Tomorrow night the four tribes will revolt together to kill the Romans who have enslaved us and restore our freedom." And then. We will build a truly strong Germanic alliance. Let those in the Germanic Union see. Even without their help, we would have been able to succeed......"

"Yes, we can succeed just as well!" All the tribal leaders shouted out in unison.

"Heilman, Heilman, I just got a message!" At this moment, Edler, the leader of the Cherusians, hurriedly walked in: "The legions of Sentumaros are all finished! ”

"What?" Heilman and everyone else were amazed, and Heilman hurriedly asked, "Adler, my friend." Please tell me again what you just said! ”

Adler gasped and said, "I just got the news, Sentumaros and his fifteenth legion. They were led into a valley, and then the Vulcan Emissary of the Germanic Alliance summoned Loki, the god of fire, and a fire fell from the sky and burned thousands of Romans......"

The tribal leaders looked at each other...... It's terrifying, the other party actually has the ability to summon the god of fire......

"No, it can't ......," Heilman muttered, "we can't summon the Vulcan, how can the Vulcan follow the orders of mortals?" ”

"It's true, it's true." Adler hurriedly said: "The corpses of those Romans are everywhere, and they are far more than that, after burning the Roman legions, the demon messenger Skull Masked Man, that is, the consul of the Germanic Alliance, almost killed the auxiliary legions of the Fifteenth Army of Rome, and even Sentumarus became their prisoner. ”

Astound...... Now these people don't know what to say except for shock......

The Germanic Alliance, led by the Demon Emissary, has not only defeated the invincible Caesar several times, but has now also annihilated an entire legion. These are nothing, and the most terrifying thing is that they actually have the power of the god of fire!

"I think it's true, they can indeed summon the power of the god of fire......" Keruman, the leader of the Lombards, whispered, "I heard that when they burned the bridge, the fire that burned could not be extinguished, how could they have done it if they had not received the help of the god of fire?" Heilman, my friend, have you thought about it? Or we can send our emissaries again, for which we don't care to delay the uprising a little later......"

"No, the time of the uprising must not be postponed!" Heilmann, who was also in shock, resolutely rejected the suggestion: "All the people are ready, all the people are waiting for the day to come, whether they have such magical powers or not, but at least the Romans do not have them, and our enemies are not some messenger of the devil or anything like that...... My friends, the defeat of Sentumaros has given us the best chance to do so, at least not to face the threat of the Fifteenth Legion. And postponing the time of the uprising will only give Keith more preparation. When he learns of the defeat of Sentumaros, he will be on guard, and then our uprising will be even more unsuccessful. ”

The leaders nodded, perhaps there was some truth to what Heilman said......

"Alright, my friends, now we can prepare in advance." Heilmann decided to use his own unique way to boost their determination to win: "Think about it, freedom is waiting for us. Soon this is the real ours! ”

As he watched the tribal leaders leave, Heilman's heart grew heavy.

Despite their presence, Heilman was by no means willing to admit anything. But he was still terrified of what the Germanic League had done.

What kind of people are they who can summon the help of the god of fire?

It's a pity that they rejected their kindness, otherwise they would have been able to become their own strong arms...... Until now, at least, Heilmann believed that the Germanic people, even if they were all united, would have to accept their own leadership......

This was a rather peculiar state of mind, under the rule of the Romans for several years. Within the Saxons there was already a distinction between nobles and commoners, although on the surface they were equal. The Germanians, the Vandals, or the Teutons were likewise barbarians in Heilmann's eyes. They are uncivilized, backward, and ignorant. In short, all the words that the Romans used to describe the Germanic peoples. All of them were used by Heilmann on his own compatriots...... And how is such a barbarian worthy to lead all the Germanic peoples?

Only you guess what you have to be the leader of all the Germanic people!

He slowly walked out of the house, and saw Seldes and Hesnia, who had only been satisfied with their newlyweds. Selders quickly greeted him and said in the most respectful tone, "Honorable Chief. The Almighty and Merciful God will shine on you. We're all set. Ready to go to the battlefield under your leadership! ”

Heilman looked at his people lovingly: "You will be the bravest warrior of the Saxons, my warrior." But when the battle comes, will you really bear to leave your beautiful wife? ”

"I'm willing to fight for you, I'm willing to die for you!" Sterders' answer was so firm: "My wife is the same, we don't care about death, we want land, we want freedom!" ”

"Is that so, beautiful Hesnia?" Heilman smiled and looked at Hesneya.

Hesinia also responded to her leader with a beautiful smile: "What could be happier?" My chief? We know everything we seek, and we are willing to die for you. And we believe it. With your leadership, we will be able to achieve the best victory! ”

"Thank you for your trust." Heilman was a little moved: "And I can guarantee that I will live up to your expectations......"

While they were discussing this, Caesar's messenger, the Greek Tenadus, came to supervise them, and the men immediately shut their mouths.

"Look, am I persona non grata?" Tenadus smiled and said, "Why don't you stop talking as soon as I come?" ”

A couple of Saxons laughed, and to be honest, Heilmann still liked the Greek. From the first day of his arrival, the Greek behaved very kindly, without the condescending posture of the Romans. When the uprising began, he really couldn't bear to kill the Greek.

Maybe he still needs someone like that, Heilman thought to himself...... He could bring more knowledge to the Saxons, and he could tell himself many stories about Greece and civilization that made the Saxons stronger.

He could even appoint Turnados as one of his officials to work for him.

That's a pretty good idea......

"Look, we're just talking about Eros, the little god of love." Heilman quickly smiled and said, "Aren't our Syldes and Hesinia favored by the goddess of love?" ”

"Ah, Eros, he is the fundamental driving force for the creation of all things at the beginning of the world, the symbol of all love and lust, but after Plato he is the son of Aphrodite, the goddess of love, a beautiful boy with a bow and arrows." Tenadus smiled and said, "There are many stories about him, such as Phrixos being saved by a god-given golden sheep. In thanksgiving, he sacrificed the sheep to Zeus, the king of the gods, and the Golden Fleece to King Aeitus, who in turn gave the Golden Fleece to Ares, the god of war. Ares nailed it to an oak tree in the Ares Sacred Grove and left it guarded by the Poison Dragon. The Golden Fleece was considered priceless by the entire world, and many heroes and princes dreamed of it. In order to recover the scepter and the throne from his uncle who usurped the throne, Iason, the prince of Thesalia, fell into the hands of his uncle and took the Greek heroes to Colchas to fetch the Golden Fleece on the ship Argo. With Athena's help, the Argonaut heroes have gone through great hardships to reach their destination, but there is no way to get the Golden Fleece from the fire dragon

In the end, with the help of Eros, the infatuated princess Medea was shot by Eros's arrow, betrayed her father Eetes for love, helped Iason get the Golden Fleece, killed her own brother who came to chase her, and followed Iason to leave her hometown and start living in a distant land......"

"Another beautiful love story." Heilmann found himself more fond of Tenadus, a Greek with seemingly endless stories in his belly: "Turnadus, when you are no longer in the service of Caesar, the Saxons will always welcome you, and there will always be a place for you here." ”

"Thank you for your generosity, my chief." Tenadus kept his usual smile: "However, I think I will return to my native Greece after my service for Caesar has expired." ”

"In any case, please don't forget that there are still your friends here!" (To be continued......)
