By the sea level cannot see Carthage ships again, the warship of Sicily fleet stopped this type consuming battering of physical strength extremely, starts the Theonia crew that rescued to fall in the water, them placed on Carthage warship that was caught by the fleet infantry...... 直到海面上再也看不到一艘迦太基船只,西西里舰队的战船才停止了这种极耗体力的横冲直撞,开始救起落水的戴奥尼亚船员,将他们安置在被舰队步兵捕获的迦太基战船上…… In the entire process, the Carthage people of shore stimulated, to startled, to sobbing, in the end myriad people crowded beach one pieces of by most is started silent...... 在整个的过程中,岸边的迦太基民众由最开始的亢奋、到惊慌、到哽咽、到最后万千民众拥挤的海滩一片寂静…… They once heard in the disastrous defeat of Sicily army, hears the Carthage allied country to be attacked to destroy......, although makes them worry, but is inferior to witness the Theonia navy to defeat their fleets and after all to wreak havoc in their livelihood sea areas today like this, the great strength of enemy makes each of them be afraid...... 他们曾经听闻在西西里军队的惨败,听闻迦太基的盟邦被攻击摧毁……虽然让他们感到忧心,但毕竟不如今天这样亲眼目睹戴奥尼亚海军击败他们的舰队、在他们赖以生存的海域里肆虐,敌人的强大让他们每一个人都不寒而栗…… Comes under the major attack senior statesmen who not only the Carthage people, these observe in the breakwater city wall, because they stand nearly, looks clear, the impact that many of consideration, are therefore under is more powerful. 受到重大打击的不只是迦太基民众,还有这些在防波堤城墙上观战的元老们,由于他们站得更近,看得更清,思虑的更多,因此受到的冲击更加强烈。 Is good because of tempers many years of Carthage aristocrat elites in the political arena, after some time dreariness, Hanno(Hannonian) first long sigh, facial expression heavy saying: „We should immediately start the armistice talks with Theonia, these conditions that to realize the peace as soon as possible, put forward regarding Theonia...... I looked that must make some concessions appropriately.” 好在一个个都是在政坛锤炼多年的迦太基贵族精英,在一段时间的沉寂之后,汉诺首先长长的叹息了一声,神情沉重的说道:“我们应该马上与戴奥尼亚开始停战谈判,为了尽快实现和平,对于戴奥尼亚所提出的那些条件……我看还是要适当的做一些让步。” The proposition of this Hanno(Hannonian) gets many senior statesman's responses immediately: Right that „Sir Hanno(Hannonian) said! Now the navy ended, the army was stranded in Sicily, for the Carthage security, even if pays some prices, we must as soon as possible with the Theonian truce!” 这一次汉诺的提议立刻得到了很多元老的回应:“汉诺大人说的对！现在我们的海军完了,陆军又被困在西西里,为了迦太基的安全,哪怕是付出一些代价,我们也必须尽快与戴奥尼亚人停战！” „Pays some prices?! Perhaps made the people know, they will not agree, will protest to council!” “付出一些代价？！恐怕让民众知道了,他们绝不会同意,而且还会到元老院来进行抗议！” „You too see these humble people high, I believe that they after watching today's naval battle, will call to stop this war compared with us absolutely anxiously!” “你太高看到那些低贱的民众,我相信他们在看了今天的这场海战之后,绝对会比我们更加急切的要求停止这场战争！” ...... …… In one piece of senior statesmen should with the sound , the Magonid virtue Faction headed by Prestat Kubba remain silent, after all the failure of this naval battle makes them realize the army that sincerely, in Sicily Magon leads will certainly be bogged down in difficulties in bigger, the peace negotiation is helps them be out of the dangerous the only way. 在元老们的一片应和之声中,以普雷塔库巴为首的马戈尼德派保持了缄默,毕竟这一场海战的失败让他们深切意识到在西西里玛哥率领的军队必将陷入更大的困境之中,议和是帮助他们脱离危险的唯一途径。 At this time, safe Pan Lake actually did not prepare to let off them, saying that he hated bitterly: „Sir, we witnesses defeat of navy today, can say that this war...... our Carthage...... failed thoroughly...... to negotiate peace, we will also pay the deeply grieved price! Regarding this, we should well reconsiders, six months ago Sir Hanno(Hannonian) and suddenly Sir Cleeton...... and other senior statesmen repeatedly stressed that ‚the Theonia military force is powerful, launching the war is disadvantageous to Carthage, hopes that can with every effort the peacekeeping!’ Why certain people are actually determined to conduct the war, finally makes today such bad aspect! Shouldn't we to investigate their responsibility?!” 这时,泰潘拉科却不准备放过他们,他痛心疾首的说道:“诸位大人,今天我们都亲眼目睹了海军的战败,可以说这一场战争……我们迦太基……是彻底的失败了……为了议和,我们还将付出惨痛的代价！对此,我们是不是应该好好的进行反思,半年前汉诺大人、俄克里顿大人……等多位元老多次强调‘戴奥尼亚军力强大,发动战争对迦太基不利,希望能够尽力维持和平！’为什么某些人却执意要进行战争,结果造成今天这样糟糕的局面！我们难道不应该要追究他们的责任？！” Such remarks, people all startled, subconscious looks to Prestat Kubba. 此话一出,众人皆惊,下意识的看向普雷塔库巴。 „Declares war to Theonia is council adopts unanimously the resolution.” Prestat Kubba coldly returned to one. “向戴奥尼亚宣战是元老院一致通过的决议。”普雷塔库巴冷冷的回了一句。 „If not you instigates the people to exert pressure on council frequently, that resolution is impossible to be passed,...... that Theonia merchant ship steals and sells the Iberia silver ore the matter is very suspicious, I proposed that should conduct the close investigation to this matter again, cannot certain, for the self-interest, infringes the city-state benefit the crime to evade the penalty, but makes our these deeply love the Carthage person to withstand the anger of people truly innocently!” “如果不是你们频繁煽动民众向元老院施压,那个决议根本就不可能通过,还有……那一艘戴奥尼亚商船盗卖伊比利亚银矿的事也很可疑,我提议应该重新对此事进行详细调查,绝不能让某些人为了自己利益、损害城邦利益的罪行躲过惩罚,而让我们这些真正热爱迦太基的人无辜的承受民众的怒火！” The safe Pan Lake words reminded the surrounding senior statesmen, making them at present one bright: The after failure of this war , the heavy price of possibly paying will definitely cause the anger of Carthage people, council truly needs a scapegoat to shoulder this huge responsibility, starts Magon of this war positively without doubt is the best goal, in the war the strength and prestige in the Magonid virtue families that came under the serious attack also makes them be short of many awes let alone. 泰潘拉科的话提醒了周围的元老们,让他们眼前一亮:这场战争的失败以及之后可能付出的惨重代价必然会引起迦太基民众的怒火,元老院确实需要一个替罪羊来承担这个巨大的责任,积极发动这场战争的玛哥无疑是最好的目标,更何况在战争中实力和威望受到严重打击的马戈尼德家族也让他们少了许多的敬畏。 Therefore, many senior statesmen expressed the support one after another, hopes that council „initiated to instigation people to the Theonia war, and Theonia merchant ship steals and sells the Iberia silver ore” the incident to conduct the close investigation, if its back really had the plot, must conduct the severe punishment. 于是,不少元老相继表示赞同,希望元老院对“煽动民众发起对戴奥尼亚的战争、以及戴奥尼亚商船盗卖伊比利亚银矿”一事重新进行详细调查,如果其背后真的存在阴谋,要进行严厉惩处。 When more and more senior statesmen are approving of the safe Pan Lake proposition, Prestat Kubba actually saw cold and gloomy vision that Hanno(Hannonian) casts, he understood suddenly: Since the war has broken out, this Magonid virtue family biggest enemies to Sir Magon the too big obstruction, have not actually been waiting for this most crucial time to hold the most vicious blade. 当越来越多的元老都在赞同泰潘拉科的提议时,普雷塔库巴却看到了汉诺投来的森冷目光,他突然间明白了:自从战争爆发以来,这个马戈尼德家族最大的敌人并没有给玛哥大人太大的阻挠,却是在等待着这个最关键的时刻捅出最凶狠的一刀。 He somewhat flustered, is arguing loudly: „You forgot! Carthage launches the war, that is because Theonia declares war to Rome, but Rome is our allies, we must fulfill the treaty of alliance! Sir Ess, you said that is this?!” 他心里有些慌了,大声的辩解着:“你们都忘了吗！迦太基之所以发动战争,那是因为戴奥尼亚对罗马宣战,而罗马是我们的盟友,我们必须要履行盟约！艾斯亚鲁巴大人,你说是不是这样？！” Facing seeking help vision that Prestat Kubba casts, this silver-haired independent leader coughed several, turns head to look to others, said: „The people that everyone, we should immediately the crew that sends people to rescue to fall in the water, the warship of patching damage, burying die in battle the warrior and comforting that lose the family member...... also to now discuss that which could make to yield in the armistice talks with Theonia, the envoy who as well as sends out the negotiations again...... so many things the matter that needs us to complete............ you to discuss immediately a moment ago can after these matters complete holds discussions......” 面对普雷塔库巴投来的求助目光,这位白发苍苍的中立派领袖干咳了几声,扭头看向其他人,说道:“各位,我们现在应该立即派人去救援落水的船员,修补损坏的战船,埋葬战死的勇士和安抚失去亲人的民众……还要商议在与戴奥尼亚的停战谈判中可能要做哪些让步,以及再派出谈判的使者……有这么多的事情需要我们立即去完成……呃……你们刚才谈论的事可以在这些事完成之后进行讨论……” Prestat Kubba's heart sank the valley, although Ess said is perfunctory, but he can listen to him to the support that safe Pan Lake proposed. 普雷塔库巴的心沉到了谷底,虽然艾斯亚鲁巴说得敷衍,但他能听出他对泰潘拉科提议的支持。 Hanno(Hannonian) stroked the beard with the hand, on the face showed the happy expression of taunt. 汉诺用手捋了捋胡须,脸上露出了嘲讽的笑意。 The setting sun in the western sky, the night falls, in Carthage nearby sea level some innumerable ships were still busy in the shuttle, the shout and wail resounded through this once western Mediterranean biggest city-state, prolonged...... 夕阳西下,夜幕降临,迦太基附近的海面上仍然有无数船只在穿梭忙碌,呼喊声、哭泣声响彻这个曾经的西地中海最大的城邦,经久不绝…… A Carthage side approximately 180 warship in this naval battle and Theonia two fleet 390 warships, a total of 570 warships participate in the fight. The fierce combat most of the day, the Carthage fleet loses 135 warships, its nauarch died in battle, the Theonia third fleet also lost 76 warships, its flagship was sunk similarly, since when meter/rice Dorotheus rescues from the sea is cold trembles, both sides attrition ratio such high in the beforehand Mediterranean naval battle history, is unprecedented. 在这一场海战中迦太基一方约180艘战船、戴奥尼亚两支舰队390艘战船、总共570艘战船参与战斗。激战大半天,迦太基舰队损失135艘战船,其海军统帅战死,戴奥尼亚第三舰队也损失了76艘战船,其旗舰同样被撞沉,米多拉德斯从海中救起时冷得瑟瑟发抖,在之前的地中海的海战历史中双方战损率如此之高,是前所未见的。 But the Theonia third fleet traded the destruction of nearly Carthage fleet at the heavy prices of more than 50% casualties, was very in a short time difficult to be restored again, is unable to pose the threat to the Theonia navy, this enabled the Theonia navy to feel relieved that the bold travel in the sea area of Africa, can directly blockade the oppression and to the Carthage city, this was a strategical great victory. 但戴奥尼亚第三舰队以一半以上伤亡的沉重代价换得了迦太基舰队的近乎毁灭,在短时间内很难再得到恢复,更无法对戴奥尼亚海军造成威胁,这使得戴奥尼亚海军可以放心大胆的行驶在阿非利加的海域,可以直接对迦太基城进行压迫和封锁,这是在战略上的一大胜利。 Therefore, Davos after obtaining the news of this naval battle, is excited, commended the unity and cooperation of two fleet no gaps, not to fear the sacrifice, win this important victory for the kingdom publicly, summoned that the army learned from them, and pledged that all the crew of combat will award a great merit, simultaneously he will urge the military affairs section to make up the simultaneous/uniform third fleet battle loss as soon as possible the ships, making its establishment complete. 因此,戴弗斯在得到这场海战的消息之后,非常兴奋,公开表彰了两支舰队毫无间隙的团结协作、不畏牺牲、为王国赢得了这一场重要的胜利,号召全军向他们学习,并且承诺所有参战的船员都将记一大功,同时他将督促军务部尽快补齐第三舰队战损的船只,使其编制完整。 Two days later, negotiated suddenly Cleeton of envoy to rush to Heraclea Minoa as Carthage, wanted to restart the peace talks. 两天之后,作为迦太基谈判使者的俄克里顿赶到米诺亚,希望重启和谈。 Davos consented face to face generously, actually instructs the Henie Polis's protracted time as far as possible secretly in the negotiations. 戴弗斯当面慨然应允,暗地里却指示赫尼波里斯在谈判中尽量的拖延时间。 Carthage council in knowing King Theonia still takes the attitude of welcome after the peace talks, immediately through resolution, sends out the Carthage camp that the envoy goes to Sellin Nuse, informs Magon, lets the attack of its suspension to Sellin Nuse, to guarantee smooth of peace talks. 迦太基元老院在得知戴奥尼亚国王对和谈依然抱有欢迎的态度之后,立刻又通过决议,又派出使者前往塞林努斯的迦太基营地,通知玛哥,让其暂停对塞林努斯的进攻,以保证和谈的顺利。 The news that who would have thought Magon obtains are more, Prestat Kubba has sent people to remind him: For these days the Carthage city's people not only urged vigorously stopped the war, regaining the peace, but also to shouldered initially to the Theonia war expressed the extreme disaffection ; council was the undercurrent is also turbulent, said that sequence of events investigations that must respond people's request, before the preparation must start to war, has, its goal obviously the Magonid virtue family that was to aim at Magon led. 哪知玛哥得到的消息更多,普雷塔库巴已经派人来提醒他:这几天迦太基城的民众不但大力呼吁停止战争、恢复和平,而且还对当初挑起对戴奥尼亚的战争表示了极度的不满;元老院也是暗流汹涌,说是要响应民众的要求,准备要启动对战争之前所发生的一系列事件的调查,其目标明显是对准了玛哥所领导的马戈尼德家族。 After obtaining this news, Magon realized the danger, after own family's general discussion, he makes the decision resolutely: Does not obey the council resolution, and stops in the reorganization of Nummi Biya person to the camp, starts to attack Sellin Nuse city. 得到这个消息之后,玛哥意识到了危险,在同自己家族的将领商议之后,他毅然作出决定:绝不服从元老院的决议,并且停止对营地内努米比亚人的整顿,重新开始对塞林努斯城进行进攻。 He decided that must recall the Magonid virtue families with a victory in the Carthage prestige. 他决定要用一场胜利来挽回马戈尼德家族在迦太基的威望。 Davos obtains „Magon to lead the army to start after Sellin Nuse city launches attack” the news, understood through other channels the approximate reason, makes Henie Polis interrogate suddenly Cleeton immediately: Since Carthage has been conducting the armistice talks with Theonia, why is still ordering the Sicily army to launch the attack to Sellin Nuse! Theonia suspected that it to the sincerity of negotiations, decides to suspend negotiating, till Carthage army real elimination of Sicily to the hostility of Theonia. 戴弗斯得到“玛哥率领军队重新开始对塞林努斯城发起进攻”的消息之后,又通过其它渠道了解了其中大致的缘由,立刻让赫尼波里斯去质问俄克里顿:既然迦太基已经在同戴奥尼亚进行停战谈判,为什么还在命令西西里的军队对塞林努斯发动进攻！戴奥尼亚怀疑其对谈判的诚意,决定暂停谈判,直到西西里的迦太基军队真正的消除对戴奥尼亚的敌意为止。 suddenly Cleeton wants to refute Henie Polis: Theonia during negotiations, is not same makes the fleet continue at the Sicily sea area cruise, even also penetrates into the Carthage sea area, poses the enormous threat to the turnover of harbor ships! 俄克里顿很想反驳赫尼波里斯:戴奥尼亚在谈判的同时,还不是一样让舰队继续在西西里海域巡航,甚至还深入到迦太基海域,对港口船只的进出造成极大威胁！ However the present war situation does not favor Carthage extremely, suddenly Cleeton is shouldering the heavy responsibility, needs to reach the agreement anxiously as soon as possible, maintains the security of Carthage native place, therefore he does not dare to speak such forceful talk, instead sincere guarantee: Attacks Sellin Luse incident not to stem from inciting of council, certainly is the Magon secretly behavior, he rushes to Sellin Nuse immediately, stops the hostility of Magon, and senior statesman Yuan will also punish Magon, hopes after this matter processes , the negotiations can continue. 但是现在的战争局势极其不利于迦太基,俄克里顿肩负着重任,急切需要尽快达成协议,来维护迦太基本土的安全,因此他不敢说这样的硬话,反而恳切的保证:进攻塞林鲁斯一事绝不是出于元老院的授意,一定是玛哥私自所为,他会立刻赶往塞林努斯,制止玛哥的敌对行动,并且元老元还会对玛哥进行处罚,希望这件事处理完后谈判能够继续进行。 Obtains Henie Polis who Davos exhorts naturally to welcome this. 得到戴弗斯嘱咐的赫尼波里斯当然对此表示欢迎。 Do not look that suddenly Cleeton vowed solemnly in Heraclea Minoa, in fact he does not have the confidence to convince this status to be honored, the temperament obstinate Magonid virtue family head of the clan stop to Sellin Nuse's attack. 别看俄克里顿在米诺亚信誓旦旦,实际上他并没有信心能够说服这位身份尊贵、脾气执拗的马戈尼德家族族长停止对塞林努斯的进攻。
