Persia envoy raising has not let the matter that the Greek mercenaries surrender again, but proposes both armies armistice. The troubled mercenaries have certainly wished for earnestly. After negotiations, both sides reach the armistice agreement, but Persians must provide the provisions for Greeks. This to the mercenaries is a gospel, because their food storage have bottomed, is the preparation must conduct to kill and burn to plunder to village along the way. 没想到,波斯使者没有再提让希腊雇佣军投降的事,而是提议两军休战。已经陷入困境的雇佣军当然求之不得。经过一番谈判,双方达成休战协议,而波斯人则要为希腊人提供给养。这对雇佣军来说是个福音,因为他们的食物储存已经见底了,原本接下来是准备要对沿途的村庄进行烧杀抢掠的。 Although there is an armistice agreement, but Clearchus has not relaxed the alert: The Persia envoy in the front guides, Clearchus orders the army to assume the column of threes, march by four rows of fight lineups. Bumps into three and four meters wide trenches to be in the way all the way unceasingly, in the ditch fills the sewage, the soldiers has to fell the trees to build the system wooden bridge. Davos situated in rear guard transportation battalion they instead end up with ease. 虽然有了休战协议,但克利尔库斯并没有放松戒备:波斯使者在前方带路,克利尔库斯则命令全军呈三路纵队、以四列的战斗阵形行军。一路上不断碰到有三、四米宽的壕沟挡路,沟里充满污水,士兵们不得不砍伐树木来搭制木桥。位于后卫部队辎重营的戴弗斯他们反而落得轻松。 „Look, that is Clearchus!” The direction that as Olive points, Davos sees a tall middle-aged man, is naked the upper body, bronze strong muscle, several conspicuous scabs, with the soldiers about the tree trunk that carrying one just cut. Arrives by the drainage, he takes the lead to jump Xiagouli without hesitation, splashed carelessly sludge, immediately starts the wooden bridge that repaired in a rush was just cut off. “瞧,那就是克利尔库斯！”随着奥利佛斯手指的方向,戴弗斯看到一位身材高大的中年男子,赤裸着上身,一身古铜色的健硕肌肉,好几处显眼的伤疤,正与士兵们合扛着一段刚砍下来的树干。走到水沟旁,他毫不犹豫地带头跳下沟里,毫不在乎溅了一头的污泥,立刻开始抢修刚断掉的木桥。 „Yes, this is Clearchus! But our Meno where?!” Matonis sobbed said that was meaningful. “是啊,这就是克利尔库斯！而我们的梅农在哪里？！”马托尼斯唏嘘的说了一句,意味深长。 Freely two people contradiction between Meno and Clearchus, but causes the led army also because of conflicting to have the fighting. But the soldiers are not the fool, the actions of leaders they watch, who is trustworthy? Whose ability? Their bright mirror is common. The mercenaries leader has more than ten people, why is primarily Clearchus throughout?! Has the truth. 尽管由于梅农和克利尔库斯两人之间的矛盾,而导致所率领的部队也因为冲突而发生过械斗。可是士兵们不是傻子,首领们的所作所为他们都看在眼里,谁值得信赖？谁能力强？他们心里明镜一般。雇佣军首领有十几个人,为什么始终是以克利尔库斯为主？！不是没有道理的。 This is the say/way of series soldier! Davos has been gazing at the performance of Clearchus, said to oneself in the heart. 这就是统兵之道！戴弗斯一直注视着克利尔库斯的表现,在心底对自己说。 When is close dusk, Greeks reached the destination. The Persia envoy the village that places for the Greek mercenaries not only prepared the comfortable residence, but also provides rich food: Ratafia, drink, bread and brown jujube...... 在接近黄昏的时候,希腊人到达了目的地。波斯使者为希腊雇佣军安置的村庄不但准备了舒适的住所,还提供丰富的食物:果酒、饮料、面包、棕枣…… The soldiers cannot bear all cheer. 士兵们忍不住全都欢呼起来。 Suddenly, Davos also had doubts: Persians was really frightened by Greek Hoplite, thinks the armistice sincerely? 一时间,戴弗斯也疑惑了:难道波斯人真被希腊重步兵打怕了,真心想休战？ Has tasted food when him and companions, after determining does not have the issue, prepares to eat and drink extravagantly, Antonios came: „Davos, Meno must see you!” 就在他和同伴们尝过食物,确定没问题后,准备大吃大喝时,安东尼奥斯来了:“戴弗斯,梅农要见你！” „Now?!” Davos swallows the saliva. “现在？！”戴弗斯咽了咽口水。 „Now!” Antonios nods. “现在！”安东尼奥斯点头。 „Relax, all right! Meno heard Davos helped us solve several problems, out of curiosity, wants to have a look at him, perhaps rewarded!” Saw the people to reveal the facial expression of care, Antonios made the guarantee. “放心,没什么事！梅农只是听说戴弗斯帮我们解决了好几个问题,出于好奇,想看看他,说不定还有奖励！”看到众人流露出关心的神情,安东尼奥斯做了担保。 Before Antonios brings Davos is arriving at a village central big house, to the entrance guard said: „Meno must see Davos, he has come.” 安东尼奥斯带着戴弗斯来到村庄中央的一处大房子前,对门口的卫兵说道:“梅农要见戴弗斯,他已经来了。” The guards are sizing up Davos several curiously, then said: „Meno is currently having the important matter in the office. Please wait a bit.” 卫兵好奇地打量着戴弗斯几眼,然后说道:“梅农现在正有要事在办。请稍等。” Crossed some little time, inside did not have the sound. Davos still spoke with Antonios self-possessedly. Antonios worried: „What matter has not gotten through, I go to urge!” Said that must rush toward, was blocked by the guard: „Antonios, you want to harm me to be scolded!” 过了好一会儿,里面还没有动静。戴弗斯依然泰然自若地同安东尼奥斯说话。安东尼奥斯却着急了:“什么事情还没办完,我进去催催！”说完就要往里闯,被卫兵拦住:“安东尼奥斯,你想害我被骂吗！” Antonios gazes at fixedly him, the guard submits finally: „Feared you, I had a look again.” Then, turns around to run in the room. 安东尼奥斯瞪视他,卫兵最终屈服:“怕你了,我再去看看。”说完,转身跑进屋。 Before long, he came out: „Goes, Meno is waiting.” He is saying, the line of sight actually does not dare to bump with Antonios. 不一会儿,他就出来了:“进去吧,梅农正等着呢。”他说着,视线却不敢与安东尼奥斯相碰。 Davos is just about, Antonios holds down his shoulder, urged: „Meno the temperament is not quite sometimes good, if he said your anything, do not quarrel with him, are listening and that's the end.” 戴弗斯正要进去,安东尼奥斯按住他的肩膀,叮嘱道:“梅农有时脾气不太好,如果他说你什么,你千万不要跟他争吵,听着就是了。” Davos smiles, said: „Relax, I am not a child.” 戴弗斯笑了笑,说道:“放心吧,我又不是小孩子。” Antonios nods. Talked to make him deepen to Davos knew: This young people have the steadiness of far ultra contemporaries. Looks at Davos to enter the room, Antonios tasted: It is not right, he is not a child, who is a child? Meno? 安东尼奥斯点点头。一路交谈让他对戴弗斯加深了认识:这个年轻人有着远超同龄人的稳重。看着戴弗斯进了屋,安东尼奥斯一回味:不对啊,他不是小孩子,谁是小孩子？梅农？ His helpless forced smile, it seems like that this young people are not affable. He then sends the quirk to the guard: „Pautas Kaess, you are dry in the sun us intentionally here.” 他无奈的苦笑,看来这个年轻人也不好惹啊。他回头对护卫发火道:“波塔克斯,你是故意把我们晾在这里的。” „Aiya, Antonios, you are a sensible person. Except for Meno, who will do this bored matter.” “哎呀,安东尼奥斯,你是明白人。除了梅农,谁会做这种无聊的事。” „Snort!” “哼！” „That young people are Hades that you said ‚god family’?! I look at him probably also yes what's the matter, smiled toward me a moment ago......” “那个年轻人就是你们说的哈迪斯的‘神眷者’？！我看他好像也明白是怎么回事,刚才还朝我笑……” .............................. ………………………… Davos naturally yes what's the matter: The previous generation saw in the mechanism/organization a lot, was not the person who demonstration of authority more selects this method is to own control not self-confident, was Meno such person? 戴弗斯当然明白是怎么回事:前世在机关里见得多了,不就是下马威嘛越是采用这种方式的人就越是对自己的掌控力没有自信,梅农是这样的人吗？ Davos is curling the lip, across the yard, arrives at the main room. 戴弗斯撇着嘴,穿过小院,来到正屋。 „Captain Meno, soldier Davos is ordered to arrive!” “梅农首领,士兵戴弗斯奉命来到！” „Comes.” In the room spreads the high-pitched and fine clear sound. “进来。”屋里传出尖细清脆的声音。 The Davos stride walks into the room, center the living room sits a person, but also puts on sparking breastplate, but does not seem to increase more dignity for him, because his fair cheek, if scrapes off the whiskers, can be absolutely pretty. 戴弗斯大步走入屋内,客厅正中坐着一个人,还穿着闪亮的胸甲,但似乎没有为他增加更多的威严,因为他白皙的脸蛋如果刮去络腮胡,绝对算得上眉清目秀。 Davos remembering cannot help but about the Meno not good rumor, for example: He and adjutants Cyrus the Younger ambiguous story between Ariaeus. He is a little suddenly anxious: This person should not be to me...... 戴弗斯不由自主的想起一些关于梅农不好的传言,比如:他和小居鲁士副官阿里柔斯之间的暧昧故事。他突然有点紧张:这人该不会是对我…… But Meno is also sizing up Davos: The strong body, the height is ordinary, the appearance is ordinary, but also on the slightly immature face does not even have the beard, may stand there actually gives people unusual makings. 而梅农同样在打量戴弗斯:强壮的身体,身高一般,长相一般,还略显稚嫩的脸上甚至没有胡须,可站在那里却给人一种与众不同的气质。 „Un...... I heard that what you are ‚god family’, therefore I want to ask, this Persians with our armistice is the sincerity? Has other idea?” Meno seemingly careless asking. “嗯……我听说你是什么‘神眷者’,所以我想问问,这次波斯人跟我们休战是真心的？还是有别的想法？”梅农看似漫不经心的问道。 „Sorry, Leader. I do not know!” Davos reply without hesitation. “抱歉,首领。我不知道！”戴弗斯不假思索的回答。 The Davos so direct reply makes Meno be somewhat in a daze but actually, finally his corners of the mouth show a really such happy expression: „Then you told me, can this we time safe going home?” 戴弗斯如此直接的回答倒让梅农有些发愣,最后他嘴角露出一丝果然如此的笑意:“那么你告诉我,这一次我们能不能平安的回家？” „I do not know.” Reply of Davos as before simply. “我不知道。”戴弗斯的回答依旧干脆。 „Bastard!” Meno flies into a rage, makes an effort to pat the chair: „You in entire camp did not say that you have oracle! You others did not tell that your anything knows! Now you do not speak! Your this swindler!” “混蛋！”梅农勃然大怒,用力一拍椅子:“你不是在整个营地里说你有神谕吗！你不是跟其他人说你什么都知道吗！现在你不说话啦！你这个骗子！” The Davos frown selects: „ Captain Meno, I can receive work luck from the battlefield, but I had not declared are god family. This point, my teammate can show. How others want how to say are their matters, I cannot manage. 戴弗斯双眉一挑:“梅农首领,我很幸运能从战场上活下来,可我从来没有宣称过自己是神眷者。这一点,我的队友可以证明。别人怎么想怎么讲是他们的事,我也管不着。 As for what oracle, I have not said. When sometimes with the teammate chatted, chats then probably to come across anything, I said luck. Whether safe and secure can go home the matter that is the leader you must worry about, our these soldiers want to chat through the speech when the fight, obtain some comforts and encouragements. ” 至于什么神谕,我从来就没有说过。只是有时和队友聊天时,聊起接下来可能会遇到什么事情,我幸运的说中而已。能否平安回家是首领你们要操心的事,我们这些士兵不过是在战斗之余想通过说话聊天,得到一些安慰和鼓励。” Listens to this saying, the first response of Meno is this fellow eloquence is good, for a while cannot grab his handle counter-attack unexpectedly, but he looks straight ahead the Meno confident vision face-to-face, making Meno feel brave of opposite party. 听完这话,梅农的第一个反应是这家伙口才不错,一时竟抓不着他的把柄反击,而他面对面直视梅农的坦然目光,让梅农感受到对方的胆大。 Meno is somewhat agitated, sending a while was dull, he waves saying: These I who „you said that will investigate. In brief, do not guess carelessly Persians matter, this will affect the morale of soldiers.” 梅农有些烦躁,发了一会儿呆,他才一挥手说道:“你说的这些我会去调查。总之,不要胡乱猜测波斯人的事情,这会影响到士兵们的士气。” Davos lowers the head immediately, the little darling said the sound: „Yes!” 戴弗斯马上低头,乖乖说了声:“是！” The Meno mood then felt better, put out a hand to stress one drachma, said: „No matter how said, this time you offered advice to help busy of our army, this was I- mercenaries leader Meno gave your reward. You remember, next time will have any good idea, came to say to me directly, I will also give you to reward!” 梅农的心情这才好受了些,伸手抓了一把德拉克马,说道:“不管怎么说,这次你出主意帮了我们部队的忙,这是我-雇佣军首领梅农给你的奖励。你记住,下次还有什么好的想法,直接来给我说,我还会给你奖励的！” Davos does intentionally happily put out a hand to receive: „Thanks the leader!” 戴弗斯故作高兴的伸手接过:“谢谢首领！” Meno waving makes him draw back, visits him to go out of the room, the Meno facial expression somewhat is also in a daze: Meno and Davos are hire the relations, Meno have not lived to kill the power, only then dismissal power. May fire a wise soldier, he same will be made good use to other military compound, what instead suffers a loss is Meno. Therefore Meno wants to strike Davos, does not want to make him expand the influence in the military compound, simultaneously controls him in the hand. may from this time meet, as if not that easy...... 梅农挥手让他退下,看着他走出屋子,梅农的神情还有些发愣:梅农和戴弗斯是雇佣关系,梅农没有生杀大权,只有解雇权。可解雇一个有头脑的战士,他到别的军营一样会受到重用,反而吃亏的是梅农。所以梅农只是想敲打一下戴弗斯,不想让他在军营里扩大影响力,同时把他掌控在手中。可从这次见面来看,似乎不那么容易……
