Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Hearing the words of the representative of the leader of Semenones, Vannius laughed: "Then, first I ask you to hand over all your weapons, and then count the names of the people in each tribe according to the structure of the tribe, family, and family.  Bar."

    The leaders of the Semnones tribes exchanged glances with each other, showing puzzled expressions.  .

    Finally, the representative asked: "What do you want to do?"

    Vanius showed a friendly smile: "Didn't the people who came to negotiate with me bring our words to you?"

    After a pause, Vanius continued: "All the Semnones will be divided into several parts and distributed to many tribes as spoils of war. In those tribal alliances that support me, you will serve as national slaves  Existence - Of course, you can also earn the status of free people through hard work. The Northern Tribe Alliance, the Eastern Tribe Alliance, the Fenians and the Suyones will directly accept you as a member of their tribe. As for Frank and Langba  I don¡¯t know what they will do to you.¡±

    Hearing this, the Semnones leaders immediately showed angry expressions.

    But then, they all lowered their heads.

    ¡°If before this battle, someone had spoken of making the Semnones slaves, the Semnones would have torn him into pieces.

    But this time, Vanius taught them a lesson with facts - someone could exchange hundreds of thousands of their lives at the cost of twenty or thirty thousand people.  Moreover, after this battle, the Semnones had less than 200,000 young men left, and they no longer had the strength to fight Vannius' army.

    Therefore, whether it is the current facts or the agreement before the war, the Semnones have to hold their noses and accept Vannius's request - unless they are willing to bear millions of Semnones  The consequences of the massacre of young, old, women and children.

    After that, the leaders of the Semnones tribes stood up one after another, turned around and left to carry out Vannius's order.

    After the leaders of the Semnones tribes left, Vannius sent messengers to invite the leaders of the Eastern Tribe Alliance.  As well as Frank and the leaders of the Lombard tribe - after ordering the Semnones to sort themselves out, it was time to start the spoils-sharing conference - and in order to ensure the post-war order in the Germanic region, the spoils-sharing conference  Everyone involved must be satisfied.

    After letting the female soldiers clear away the traces of the banquet.  Vanius smiled and chatted with the allies, asking about their battle losses, praising their bravery on the battlefield, and expressing his gratitude to them for successfully luring the Semnones into the encirclement during the previous battle.

    Went through this battle.  The leaders of the three tribes, who were originally very confident in their own combat effectiveness, also had a new understanding of the strength gap between their armies and the field legions of the tribes under Vannius, as well as the Guards Corps - therefore, although  After losing more than 20,000 people, the leaders of the tribes heard Vannius' praise.  Still feeling surprised and ashamed.

    Therefore, the tribal leaders also praised the warriors under their master for their bravery and prowess in battle, and used all the imaginable compliments on Vanius.

    While the two sides were praising each other in a harmonious atmosphere, the leaders of the Eastern Tribe Alliance and the Frank and Lombard Tribes also came over on war horses.

    "Well, now, everyone is here." After the newly arrived tribal leaders also took their seats, Vanius stood up solemnly.  Start speaking.  "As we all know, just now, relying on your sincere unity and hard work, we have just won a great victory that will last forever."

    There was a pause, giving the tribal leaders time to voice their approval, until all the tribal leaders shut up.  Only then did Vanius speak again: "First of all, I would like to thank the warriors of the Eastern Tribe Alliance - it was they who stopped the Semnones with hundreds of thousands of troops without fear of sacrifice. Only then did we have the opportunity to fight against the Semnones.  The Munones fight to the death.¡±

    "Of course," he said.  Vanius also smiled and nodded to the leaders of the Frank and Lombard tribes, "The timely and brave assistance of the Frank and Lombard warriors is also indispensable. What they have proved is not just them.  Their courage is also their sincerity and trustworthiness.¡±

    Such compliments immediately made the leaders of the Eastern Tribe Alliance, as well as the leaders of the Frank and Lombard tribes feel greatly increased in face and proud.

    "Secondly, the alliance of the Northern Tribes, the Fenni, and the Suyones¡ªthe three tribes' coalition fearlessly provoked the middle section of the front and withstood the fiercest attack of the Semnones."  After saying that, Vanius smiled and said, "I can see clearly from behind. If it weren't for the previous battle plan,The Semnones were deceived by requiring them to retreat, and they would never allow the enemy to advance even half a step.  "

    Hearing this, the leaders of the three tribes were suddenly filled with mixed emotions of joy, complacency and shame. Although Vanius praised them greatly, as leaders who commanded the army, they knew very well that their  The retreat was not entirely due to planning, but also due to lack of strength.

    At the same time, the tribal leaders also thought that next, Vanius should express his achievements - after all, he led the largest army and formulated all the plans.

    However, what Vanius said was completely beyond their expectations: "It is entirely dependent on your heroic performance that we can win."

    "I don't agree with this!" After hearing Vanius's words, Leader Fenni, who had been filled with shame before, immediately stood up, "How your people were beaten, we all can see clearly - there is no choice.  ."

    After saying that, as if to seek more supporters to fight against Vanius, the leader looked at the people around him: "You guys, don't you think so?"

    "right!"

    "That's what happened!"

    "You only know how to praise us, but forget about your soldiers. This is not okay."

    "That's right. When it comes to fighting, even the Semnones don't accept it. But your warriors, hey, we do."

    Listening to such a group of random approvals, Vanius smiled - this was exactly the effect he wanted - the so-called civil servants are not the first, and the military is not the second. If he praises his soldiers, it will inevitably cause confusion.  Leaders who are embarrassed by the discomfort of others but who deliberately ignore their own warriors in order to show that they are impartial and who feel ashamed that they have received unrealistic praise will jump out.  Extremely proud of his own warriors.

    "Okay, okay." Vanius smiled and raised his hands, "I admit it. My soldiers, they also work hard. They are great, okay?"

    Seeing that Vanius seemed to be forced to admit the merits of his warriors.  The leader finally calmed down with satisfaction as if he had finally won.

    ¡°And right now, what we have to do is enjoy the fruits of victory.¡± As he spoke, Vanius paused.  "We killed hundreds of thousands of Semnones in this battle, but they still left hundreds of thousands, maybe millions of people behind. If we give them time, they will be able to recover in less than a generation. By then  Just another level of trouble.¡±

    The tribal leaders nodded in agreement without any objection.

    "So, before this battle, I have decided that as long as we can defeat it, the Semnones tribe cannot let him continue to exist."

    Let the tribal leaders give full play to their imagination.  After experiencing the bloodshed contained in this sentence, Vanius smiled faintly and continued: "But killing a group of old, young, women and children who have lost the ability to resist is not a glorious thing. And if such a large number of people are killed like this,  It was too wasteful. So I decided to try another method.¡±

    "I have asked the remaining leaders of the Semnones to go back and count their numbers and sort them out."

    After that, Vanius smiled faintly: "I suggest that we divide the remaining population of the Semnones into one share. Each tribe will bring some back, which can also make up for the losses of each tribe in this battle - this suggestion  .The leaders of the various tribes also agreed."

    "It's just," just when the tribal leaders were wondering why Vanius wanted to talk about such a settled matter again.  Vanius began to explain, "How to divide this population is still a big problem."

    "According to what we decided before, one large tribe counts as one share, two small tribes count as one share, fourteen large tribes, six small tribes, plus my Germanic Youth Commune's share, and the Eastern Tribe Alliance and more  Take one share, and the two tribes Frank and Lombard take an extra share, and divide the population of the Semnones into twenty parts in total, and each will receive his share, and that will be it."

    Hearing Vanius¡¯s calculations, the leaders nodded in agreement¡ªthese were all agreed upon before the war.

    "But even when dividing animals, there are always picky ones, let alone when dividing people?" Vanius changed the topic, "Among the remaining population of the Semnones, there are mostly old and weak, few young and strong, and some women are unmarried.  A young girl, and a mother of several children. The children are both boys and girls, some are smart and some are dull and stupid. If this is not discussed in advance, then when the population is divided in the future, everyone will feel unhappy and feel that they have eaten.  If it¡¯s a loss, wouldn¡¯t it be bad?¡±

    Seeing the leaders nodding in agreement, Vanius decided to add another fire: "Let's gather together from afar to fight against the bullies."The people of Semnones finally won the victory, and they hope to have long-term cooperation and friendly exchanges in the future. Wouldn't it be worth it if they cause unhappiness because of such a small thing?  "

    The leaders once again nodded in agreement.

    Before, the tribes were very excited when they saw that they could overthrow the Semnones who had been oppressing them, so they gritted their teeth and went to war. However, it was only after they overthrown the Semnones that they suddenly realized that although the Semone  The Nones fell, but Vannius's Germanic Kingdom became the second Semnones - with the current strength of four major and two small tribes, it might not be enough for Vannius to bundle them together.  Hit with one hand.

    Therefore, when Vanius proposed "long-term cooperation and friendly exchanges," the tribal leaders were naturally very happy and agreed.

    "So, I propose that we divide the Semnones into divisions, and then let the Semnones draw lots, and divisions with the same signatures will be drawn to form one. This will produce twenty copies."  After a pause, Vanius smiled slightly and said, "Then the twenty Semnones will choose representatives to draw lots - whichever tribe they draw will belong to that tribe - we will all let O  What does Master Ding mean? What do you think?"

    The leaders of the tribes looked at each other and made calculations in their hearts.

    The number of old, young, women, children, and young adults in each branch of the Semnones must be different. In extreme cases, there may be only a few hundred people left in one branch, while there are tens of thousands in another branch. In other words  , the twenty copies obtained in this way are definitely unfair.

    But the problem is that unfairness means that some tribes may get very little, but some tribes may get a lot - it all depends on luck

    No, it means "Odin".

    So, it seems like we can take a gamble?

    After hesitating and pondering for a long time, not surprisingly, all the leaders agreed to the proposal.
