Rome must fall.

Chapter 338 Gathering
Thinking of this, Budokaribas looked more carefully. He found that the villagers were also mixed with Scotish people, Segestica people and old Nix people. He even saw a scene like this: Scotish people and Segestica people were plowing the field together. The Scotish people holding the plow shouted loudly, asking the Segestica people in front who were leading the cows to walk slower. The Segestica people actually obeyed. After a while, the people in front shouted loudly, "It's time to turn!", and the people behind responded, "Got it!"...

It can be seen that when they were talking, both parties had wooden expressions, cold voices, no eye contact at all, and seemed awkward all the time, but the two of them worked together to plow a piece of land.

Of course, the villagers’ ability to cooperate in this way without any major problems was inseparable from the efforts of a middle-aged man.

This person has been standing by the field, directing the villagers to work and allocating manpower. If something goes wrong, he will yell loudly to avoid conflicts among the villagers...

After a while, the villagers stopped working, picked up their farm tools, led their cows, and walked towards the village. Only the middle-aged man walked towards them.

When he came closer, Budokaribas discovered that his right hand, which had been held against his chest, was broken.

The middle-aged man asked sternly, "I am the head of this village. Who are you? What are you doing here?"

The staff of the Ministry of Commerce stepped forward and quickly introduced themselves, and then introduced Budokaribas and his group.

The middle-aged man didn't believe what he said until he saw the ten fully armed Nix soldiers following Budokaribas and his group. He then let down his guard and said seriously, "My name is Torkilas, and I'm the village chief. Yesterday, the tribe sent someone to inform us that the Aldi tribe was going to move here. We were told not to be surprised when we saw them, and not to take any radical actions...

Don't worry, I have already warned the villagers that as long as you don't mess around, they won't have any conflicts with you!"

Village chief? He should be the leader of this village...Budokaribas thought to himself. Torkilas' words clearly contained a warning, which made him a little embarrassed, but he also understood: Although many Aldi people often went to Nix's territory to be hired for work in the past, this time it was a whole tribe migration, and several thousand people entered the land that Nix had just occupied together. It was no wonder that people would feel wary.

"Please rest assured, we will control our people and will never cause you any trouble!" Budokaribas made a serious promise to the other party.

"That's good." Torkilas nodded.

"As far as I know, Segestica and Scodischi are mortal enemies, but there are people from both tribes in your village, and it seems that there are quite a few of them. Aren't you worried that they will have a conflict?" Budokaribas asked the question that concerned him most.

"There's nothing to worry about." Torkilas answered frankly: "The two tribes do have hatred, and it's not small. They have just joined our tribe, and this hatred can never be eliminated so quickly.

Do the Segestica people in the village want to continue oppressing the Skodischi people as they did before? Of course they want to, but they are now too old and too young to do so. The Skodischi people would like to take revenge on the Segestica people, but they are afraid of being severely punished by the tribe and losing the good life they rarely have.

In recent days, there have been several cases where the Scodischi people from other villages killed or injured the Segestica people because of anger. The offenders were forced by soldiers to parade through the roads of various villages as a warning to the public, and were finally beheaded or severely fined. Now, when we villagers mention this, our faces turn pale.

In addition, the two tribes had sworn an oath in the Temple of Danu to live in harmony, and they were afraid of being punished by God and dared not violate it easily.

Sometimes they couldn’t control their emotions and there would be some minor conflicts. I don’t know how the village heads of other villages did it, but I beat and scolded them, and warned them that if they did it again, I would do the same as the Ministry of Justice and parade them in the nearby villages. They were afraid of being embarrassed, so they were much more obedient now…

I tell you that as time goes by and everyone works together for a long time, the hatred between them will gradually disappear... I have experience with this. When I was leading troops before, I had new recruits like Segestica and Skodischi under my command. They were also noisy at the beginning, but later on the battlefield they became real comrades, able to cooperate with each other and kill the enemy together."

"Village chief, which team were you in before?" the member of the Ministry of Commerce interrupted.

"A centurion of the Third Legion had bad luck and injured his hand during the battle with the Pannoni coalition on the banks of the Korana River... As a result, he was sent here to be the village chief." Although Torkilas raised his severed right hand and looked relaxed, there was still some reluctance in his tone.

"Thank you, Village Chief Torkilas!" Budokaribas said sincerely, "After listening to your words, we can live here without any worries!"

"I'm glad to be able to help you." Torkilas said, "But I still have to remind you that there are so many of you. Be careful when you pass by here tomorrow. Don't trample on our fields!"

"Don't worry, I will definitely remind my people when I return!"

…………………………………………………………………………On the morning of the second day, the migrating group left the camp and continued their journey eastward.

Along the way, members of the Nix tribe kept leaving the team with their families. When they were about to arrive at the western stronghold of Oshalilia Ophidilla, the originally huge Nix migration team shrank by nearly half. Of course, those who left were all soldiers and their families from the First Legion.

"Madam, that is the new main stronghold of our Nix tribe - Ophidilla!" Pigris pointed to the front and said loudly to Nessia.

In the vision of Nessia and the others: a river wider than the Kupa River stretched ahead, and a fortress was located on both sides of the river...

"This is much bigger than Snowtia!" Akonis couldn't help but say, and then she shouted excitedly: "Look, it's the leader! The leader is here!"

A group of people came out from the western stronghold of Ophidili and were walking quickly towards the team. Leading them was Maximus, the leader of the Nix tribe.

Gnian Davra rushed out, shouting and yelling with excitement.

"This Davra is so unruly! Shouldn't we teach her a lesson later?" Akonis whispered in dissatisfaction.

Nesia frowned slightly, then regained her composure and said calmly, "Forget it. We haven't seen the leader for a long time. It's inevitable that we lose our composure when we are excited. We can just remind her later."

Maximus was also very excited as he was about to see his wife whom he had not seen for more than a month, so he kept quickening his pace. After all, Volenus and others behind him were old and gradually could not keep up with his pace.

At this moment, Maximus heard cries coming from the front and a familiar figure was running towards him quickly.

Maximus was worried that the other party would fall, so he also accelerated to meet him, opened his arms, and immediately embraced the soft jade and warm fragrance. Then the other party's warm lips pressed against his face, falling on his face like raindrops, and said excitedly: "Chief, I finally see you! They didn't let me see you! I...I..."

Gnian Davla's eyes turned red after she had only said a few words.

"Okay, don't cry, everyone is watching us..." Maximus wiped away the tears from her eyes with his fingers and comforted her softly.

In fact, they had been married for only a short time and were complete strangers before marriage. Maximus had not developed much affection for Gniandafla, but the passion and trust she showed in him at this moment touched him deeply.

He knew clearly in his heart that Gnian Davra was not like Nessia and Follisliusia. She had not experienced any hardships. She grew up in the love of her parents and the care of her tribesmen. She was a little arrogant and willful, but she had no scheming. She was not even 18 years old. If she had been just a high school student in her previous life, she would have been married to maintain the friendship between Aldei and the Nix Alliance. She tried hard to help her mother country, but was punished by Nessia. The followers she brought were driven away, and she was alienated and even despised by other people in the main house. The only person she could rely on in the Nix tribe was her husband.

Maximus sighed softly in his heart, suppressed the tenderness rising in his heart, smiled, loosened his arms, gently asked Gnian Davra to push away, and patted her back again: "Come on, follow me to greet your two sisters."

After saying that, he continued walking forward.

Maximus married three wives. In order to make his home more like a family, he once made a rule - the one who entered the house later had to call the one who entered the house earlier "sister". Therefore, although Phrysliusia and Geniandafla were not much different in age, Geniandafla had to call her "sister" as well. However, Geniandafla had always been stubborn and had never called her that publicly until now.

After leaving Maximus' arms, Gniandafla felt a little lost, but immediately followed him.

Maximus came to Nessia and immediately gave her a passionate hug, saying, "Nessia, I've finally waited for you. I've missed you so much during this period!"

Nessia also gave him a passionate kiss, then smiled and said, "Are you thinking about me? Or are you thinking about your sister, Forsythe?"

"All of them!" Maximus answered without hesitation, and then gave a gentle hug to Phrysliusia beside him: "Thank you for your hard work! Are you tired after all this journey?"
