After Kapuspromotion, Chiefeven/including who the vacancycomes out the position, Davosproposed that the 20platoon commanders of fiveregiments the firstbrigademanagesascandidate, making the soldierselect, finally after coming out, makingDavossomewhatsurprised, Matoniswas elected, reason for this: Firstishehides shortcomings, therefore the soldierloves;Secondishebattlesfiercely, was respectedby the soldier.卡普斯晋升后所空缺出来的连队长职位,戴弗斯提议将第一大队下辖的五个连队的二十个分队长作为候选人,让士兵们进行推选,结果出来后,让戴弗斯有些吃惊,马托尼斯当选了,究其原因:第一是他护短,所以说士兵爱戴;第二是他作战勇猛,受士兵尊重。
The soldiers of secondbrigadeare the mercenary who they are broughtbyDrakos, SestaandAdriencompose, the mercenary who becauseDrakosbringsare most, in additionitscombatis fierce, whenfightthreepeopleare often dominated by him, therefore the chiefisbyDrakos. Respectively the first, Erlian teamChiefeven/including who SestaandAdrienare the secondbrigade.
第二大队的士兵是由德拉科斯、塞斯塔、阿德里安克斯他们带来的雇佣兵组成,由于德拉科斯带来的雇佣兵最多,再加上其作战勇猛顽强,所以战斗时三人往往以他为主,因此大队长由德拉科斯担任。塞斯塔和阿德里安克斯分别任第二大队的第一、二连队连队长。

第三大队的士兵由原戴弗斯雇佣军中的六、七重步兵连队(主要是在拜占庭时加入的远征军士兵)、阿门多拉腊原公民,辎重营奴隶转为的城邦自由民、还有少部分德拉科斯他们的雇佣军组成,大队长由希罗尼穆斯担任,他原本在波斯就担任过雇佣军首领,这次也算是“官复原职”。第三大队第一连队长由阿加西亚担任。Thenis the seventhbrigade, namely the light infantrybrigade, the chiefholds the post and holds a concurrent post offirstChiefeven/including and second companyteams leaderbyEpiphanesisCid, thirdChiefeven/includingArpenst, more than 600people.
接着是第七大队,即轻步兵大队,大队长由埃皮忒尼斯担任并兼任第一连队长、第二连队长为茨皮特,第三连队长阿尔普恩斯,共六百多人。In additiontroop, team leaderLedes.
此外还有骑兵队,队长莱德斯。Davosalso conducted the strictstipulationto the hard helmets of variousrankmilitary officers: The platoon commanderhelmetwithstand/top the crown to decorate the whitecapstring, Chiefeven/including the helmetwithstand/top the crowncapstringis the red, but the chiefhelmetwithstand/top the crowncapstring to for the purple, the legatushelmetgo against the crowncapstringfor the red-whitepurpleinteraction. Simultaneouslyalsostipulated the teamofficersgo against the crowncapstring to be arrangementsfrom front to back, is advantageous for the unification and combat. Naturally, Davosmakes the stipulation, the state treasurydoes not havemoneyto help the teamofficersunifyto re-equip, can only depend onthem.戴弗斯还对各级别军官的头盔进行了严格规定:分队长头盔顶冠必须缀有白色帽缨,连队长头盔顶冠帽缨则为红色,而大队长头盔顶冠帽缨必须为紫色,军团长头盔顶冠帽缨为红白紫相间。同时还规定队官顶冠帽缨必须是从前至后的排列,便于统一和作战。当然,戴弗斯只是作出规定,国库并没钱去帮队官们统一改装,只能靠他们自己。However the stipulationcomes out, the teamofficerstake out moneyimmediately, try to find the solution( Amendolaraat this momenthave a hundred things to dotoHeracleaor the Thuriiweaponshop, wherehaswhatstore) revision, becausethisis the honor of soldier. Watches the movietelevisioninprevious generationDavos, has thoughtin the ancient timeson the generalhelmet of Westis decorating the highcapstringformagnificentattractive, showed that theirstatusdifference, is actually flashy but lacking substance. The experienceover six monthsexpeditionprofession, Davosdeeplyrealized that thisdressing upis necessary: Inboth sidesengage in a decisive battleintensely, the timegrew, the lineupis easy, once the soldiersare separated from the team, loses the organization, theycanin the jungle of being bustling and filled with people, except forseeking for the colors, but can also throughstanding tall and erect the magnificentcapstringfound the teamofficer, andcloses upto the military officersautomatically, but the rallyingformation, restores the battle efficiency.

Thislike the previous generationafterwardmilitary ranksystem, butincold war era, ifinlays the ranksymbol of generalon the shoulder, flies upwards, the war criesheavenshakingbattlefieldeyefiercesoldier unable to seein the dusteven.
但是规定一出来,队官们立刻纷纷掏钱,想办法到赫拉克利亚或者图里伊武器铺(此刻的阿门多拉腊百废待兴,哪有什么商铺)修改,因为这是军人的荣誉。在前世戴弗斯看电影电视,一直以为古代西方的将领头盔上缀着高高的帽缨只是为了华丽好看,显示他们身份的不同,其实华而不实。经历半年多的征战生涯,戴弗斯深刻意识到这种装扮很有必要:在双方激烈的会战中,时间长了,阵形容易混乱,士兵们一旦脱离队伍,失去组织,他们可以在人头攒动的密林中,除了寻找军旗,还可以通过高耸华丽的帽缨找到队官,并自动向军官们靠拢,而重整队形,恢复战斗力。并且传令官也可以轻易的找到队官将领的所在,及时传达上级的新命令。这就像前世后来的军衔制度一样,只是在冷兵器时代如果把将领的级别标志镶在肩上,在尘土飞扬、杀声震天的战场就算是眼睛再厉害的士兵也无法看见。...........................
………………………In the morning, the Amendolaracitizens, and freemengo to the squarefully-armed.
清晨,阿门多拉腊的公民们,以及自由民都全副武装来到广场。
The freemen were just separated fromslave, originallydoes not havemoneypurchase weaponsequipment.
自由民刚刚脱离奴籍,本来没钱购置武器装备。However after previousThuriibattlefailure, tolet the Davosmercenariescontinuesto defend the Sybarisplain, divertedLucanians, Thuriibestowed the mercenariesover a thousandsets of completeweaponry, butafterannihilatingLucanian alliance, the mercenarytens of thousands is also havingon the corpse( Lucaniaincludingcamp that was firedruins) to dig upaboutten thousandsets of shieldspear/gunmail-armor and helmet, naturallytheseweaponryis the completemercenaries, butshould notbelong to the Amendolaraweaponwarehouse.
但是上一次图里伊会战失败后,为了让戴弗斯雇佣军继续防御绪巴里平原,牵制卢卡尼亚人,图里伊赠送了雇佣军上千套完整的武器装备,而在歼灭卢卡尼亚联军之后,雇佣兵又在成千上万具尸体上(包括卢卡尼亚被烧成废墟的营地)扒下来近万套盾枪甲胄,当然这些武器装备是属于全部雇佣军的,而不应归入阿门多拉腊武器仓库。Howto assignthesespoils of war the issues, the teamofficershas held the vigorousdiscussion, the quiteunifiedopinionis: Sells the money-shop scale that exchangesto apportioneachsoldier the spoils of war. Davosput forwardownproposal: Manages a weaponshopby the soldier of injureddisabledin the Amendolaramarket, patchesandsellsspeciallyin the weaponry that in the fightseizes, its profit of acquisitionwill be used insubsidythesepresentandin the futurein the life of soldierin the fightwill be injuredand even the disability.
就如何分配这些战利品的问题,队官们进行过激烈的讨论,比较统一的意见是:将战利品卖掉换来的钱平分给每一位士兵。戴弗斯则提出自己的建议:由受伤残疾的士兵在阿门多拉腊的市场里办一个武器铺,专门修补和出售在战斗中缴获的武器装备,其获得的利润用于补贴那些现在和未来在战斗中受伤乃至残疾的士兵的生活。
This suggestionwins the consistentapprovals of team of officersimmediately, afterward the soldiersknew, is gratefultoDavosall, after allno oneis ableto guarantee that in the futureinfight not injured, buthadthese„disabledsubsidy”, makingthembe short ofsomescruplesto the fight.
这一建议立刻得到了队官们的一致赞同,后来士兵们知道了,也无不对戴弗斯感激涕零,毕竟谁也无法保证将来在战斗中不受伤,而有了这些“伤残补贴”,使他们对战斗又少了一些顾忌。Therefore a verybigweaponshopis open for businessin the marketrapidly, andpromotedownsignboard„regiment”, the shop front is very big, the weaponryto be many, considering the outfitvalue of heavy infantry400to600drachma, expensive, thereforealsoallowsto rent. Even the rentis not a smallnumber, but the freemenare still willingto rent , because theyknow: Only thenparticipates in the army, participates in the combat, theycanrapidlybecome the citizen, canobtain the land! Meanwhile, becoming a soldieris the glory of citizen, isbestway that the freemenrapidlyimprove the city-stateposition!
因此一个很大的武器铺迅速在市场开张,并推出了自己的招牌“军团”,店面很大、武器装备很多,考虑到重步兵的全套装备价值四百至六百德拉克马,价格不菲,因此还允许租借。即使租金也不是一笔小数目,但自由民们仍愿意租借,是因为他们知道:只有参加军队,参与作战,他们才能迅速成为公民,才能获得土地!同时,当兵是公民的荣耀,是自由民们迅速提高自己城邦地位的最好办法!
But pays the rent the moneyfrom? The freemenhave not worriedtoofor a long time, theysoondiscoveredin the marketnamed„Cheiristoya”bank, the interest was extremely low( andGreekcity-stateloan interestcomparedat that time), moreoverit is well known, Cheiristoyawas the archon Davoswife, theseonceaccompanied the mercenariesto fight in the freeman in thousand li (500 km)to know the Davosmanner, resolutelytothisbank loan. Thisalsobecame the firstloan of Cheiristoyabank.
但交租金的钱从哪来?自由民们没有发愁太久,他们很快发现在市场上开了一家名叫“克莉斯托娅”的银行,利息极低(和当时希腊城邦的贷款利息相比),而且众所周知,克莉斯托娅是执政官戴弗斯的夫人,这些曾陪同雇佣军转战千里的自由民知道戴弗斯的为人,毅然到这个银行借了款。这也成了克莉斯托娅银行的第一笔贷款。Now, after the soldierswent to the square, found the respectivesquad, startsto convergein the team of divisionunderleadership of eachplatoon leader, thenmerges into the regiment, formssmallphalanx, finallyaccording to the orderentersin the region that the brigadestipulates. Although the entire processis somewhat slow, butis not chaotic, finallyformationthreebigphalanxsystematic.
现在,士兵们到了广场后,找到自己所属的小队,开始在各个小队长的率领下汇入分队的队伍中,然后再并入连队,形成一个个小的方阵,最后依顺序进入所在大队规定的区域。整个过程虽有些缓慢,但不混乱,最终井然有序的形成三个大方阵。
Only the thirdbrigadeis still dressing ranks......
只有第三大队还在整队中……PhilesiusseesDavosto knit the browson the stageslightly, is busy atsaying: „Sir, the soldiers of thirdbrigadeoriginatecomplex, before especially thosefreeman, is never military-trained, butAmendolaraoriginalcitizennotbystricttraining, therefore-”斐利修斯在台上见戴弗斯略微皱眉,忙说道:“大人,第三大队的士兵来源最复杂,尤其是那些自由民以前从未受过军事训练,而阿门多拉腊的原公民也未受过严格的训练,所以-”Davosinterruptshiswords: „Iunderstand,therefore the Hieronymusresponsibilityis very heavy. I heard that hewantedmanyveteransfrom the firstbrigadein the past, was always anxiouswithhimincludingfriendlyKapus.”戴弗斯打断他的话:“我明白,所以希罗尼穆斯的责任很重。听说,他从第一大队要了不少老兵过去,连一向和气的卡普斯都跟他急了。”„Yes, Sir. Hieronymusis also worrying, person who he has the sense of responsibilityvery much!”Philesiusansweredpersuasively.
“是的,大人。希罗尼穆斯也在着急啊,他可是个很有责任心的人!”斐利修斯婉转地解释道。Davossmiled: „Serviceman, must workearnestly and competitivevigor, Ibelieve that Hieronymuswill make the thirdbrigadetry to catch upquickly!”戴弗斯笑了:“军人嘛,就要有股做事认真、不服输的劲儿,我相信希罗尼穆斯会很快让第三大队迎头赶上的!”Then, healsoasked: „These did Lucaniancome?”
接着,他又问道:“那些卢卡利亚人来了吗?”„Came.”Philesiusis pointing atoutside the square a southeast cornerhillock, saying of worry: „Sir, theymayhave800-900people, ifstartsto act unreasonably-”
“来了。”斐利修斯手指着广场外东南角的一个小坡,担心的说道:“大人,他们可有800-900人啊,万一做起乱来-”„Thatjust right!”Saying that Davosthinks otherwise: „The soldier in squarecannearbyannihilatethem, Ithink that Vespaandhis sonsowill not be silly. Let aloneeven the women in theirclanbecame the wife of ourcitizen, todayalso the appearanceexternalcheersforownhusbandmostly......”
“那正好!”戴弗斯不以为然的说道:“广场上的士兵就可以就近歼灭他们,我想韦斯巴和他的儿子不会这么傻。何况连他们族里的女人都成了咱们公民的妻子,今天也大都到场外来为自己的丈夫加油助威……”Davoslooks at the hillside of distant place, ordered: „Beats a drum.”戴弗斯望了望远处的山坡,下令道:“擂鼓吧。”
The drummerswield the drumstick, startsto haverhythmstrokingfrontbig drum.
鼓手挥动鼓槌,开始有节奏的击打面前的大鼓。„Thump! Thump! Thump!......”Hears the drumbeat, the soldiers in squarestartsto mark , to continue to adjust the formation, whenfourphalanxare neat, sound of footstepsalsoneatsuch asfor a while, „bang! Bang!

“咚!咚!咚!……”听到鼓声,广场上的士兵们开始原地踏步,继续调整队形,当四个方阵都整齐,脚步声也整齐如一时,“轰!轰!轰!……”声势恢弘的踏步声惊得山鸟乱飞、野兽逃窜,如同天上雷鸣,震得山体都跟着在颤抖……Corneliusand other oldcitizenswere shocked the facial featuresto change colors, mutter: „Thisis...... thisisoverawesPersia, to annihilate the Lucaniansarmy! Reallyis...... is really differentgeneral!”科尔内鲁斯等老公民被震撼得面容失色,喃喃自语:“这就是……这就是威震波斯、歼灭卢卡尼亚人的军队吗!果然是……果然是不同一般!”Lucaniansseesthisscene, mostfacial featuresare pale, a dreariness.卢卡尼亚人见此情景,多数面容苍白,一片沉寂。Inwomanchildrenexcitingloudcheering of outside.
在场外的妇女孩子们则兴奋的大声欢呼。Davosfelt that trembling of mountain massif, quicklybeckoned with the hand, hintsto stop.戴弗斯感觉到了山体的震颤,急忙摆手,示意停止。
The drummershit hardtwodrumsurface, thenlets go, the squarealsobecomesdisappearingto be breathlessquickly, as ifbeforehandhugesoundhas not happened. A freemanthroatitches, justcoughed, was staredbynearbyveteranplatoon leaderwickedly.
鼓手重击两下鼓面,然后撒手,广场很快也变得消无声息,仿佛之前的巨大声响从来就没发生过。一位自由民嗓子发痒,刚咳嗽一声,就被旁边的老兵小队长恶狠狠的瞪了回去。Davosforwardedtwostepson the stage: „Brothers!”戴弗斯在台上向前走了两步:“兄弟们!”Under the stagein unisonshouted loudly: „Davos!!!”
台下齐声高喊:“戴弗斯!!!”„Did these dayshappy lifehaveis good?!”
“这几天的幸福生活过得好不好?!”„Good!!!”
“好!!!”„Iwas shy was too exactly good, yoursolebecame tenderanddoes not wield the shieldlance!”
“我就怕生活太好了,你们脚底发软、挥不动盾矛!”Soldiersambiguousyacketing.
士兵们都暧昧的哄堂大笑。„Inyoumanypeopleoncewent on an expeditionPersiato overcome the illustriousprestigealong withme!

“你们中的不少人曾随我征战波斯打下赫赫威名!又随我来到大希腊,打败卢卡利亚联军,立下耀眼的功勋!现在你们都是阿门多拉腊公民,这是一个新的开始!从今以后,你们将要守护阿门多拉腊、发展阿门多拉腊、扩张阿门多拉腊,为子孙后代创下不朽的辉煌!”戴弗斯慷慨激昂的说道。
The soldierswieldup and downpuncture the spear/gun, in unisonshouted loudlyexcitedly.
士兵们上下挥动刺枪,激动万分地齐声高呼。„for victory!”
“万胜!”„for victory!!”
“万胜!!”„for victory!!!”
“万胜!!!”
......
……„Youare not a soldier, what are youhappy?”Strombolisaw that IndykLeeslifts up high the left handsandsomeexcitedpeople that onlyremainfollows the soldiersto cheertogether, cannot bearsay.
“你又不是士兵,你高兴什么?”斯特隆波里看到身旁的安提克利斯高举仅剩的左手和一些兴奋的民众一起跟随士兵们欢呼,忍不住说道。„Thisis the truearmy! ThisisourAmendolarahopefor a long timearmy!”IndykLees'sexcitingsaying, the visionhas swept the incompleteright arm, the facial expressionis also dim: „PitifullyIcannotfollowthemto go to waragaintogether......”
“这才是真正的军队!这才是我们阿门多拉腊渴望已久的军队!”安提克利斯兴奋的说道,目光扫过自己残缺的右臂,神情又黯淡下来:“可惜我不能再跟随他们一起去打仗啦……”StromboliwithIndykLeesis the oldneighbor, the relations is very after all good, has not continued the sarcastic remarkagain, insteadconcernedsaying: „Didn't youhatetheseoutsidersto snatchyourpatrolteam leaderbefore?!”斯特隆波里毕竟跟安提克利斯是老邻居,关系很好,没有再继续说风凉话,反而关切的说道:“你之前不是恨这些外来人抢了你的巡逻队长一职吗?!”
