„Your highness, we cannot draw back!” Purin Towles opposes immediately: „ Now Sparta army soon with our engagement, if we retreat in this time, not only makes the soldiers have the complaint, will make our beforehand efforts waste, making the Sparta army gasp for breath, making other Greek city-state despise us, may speed up them and Sparta people forms the alliance, with us for the enemy, we want to defeat the Sparta army together again, without doubt will become difficulty! “殿下,我们不能退！”普林托尔斯立刻表示反对:“如今斯巴达军队即将与我们接战,如果我们在此时撤退,不但让士兵们有怨言,更会让我们之前的努力白费,让斯巴达军队喘过气来,让其他希腊城邦看低我们,更可能会加快了他们与斯巴达人组成联盟,共同与我们为敌,我们再想要击败斯巴达军队,无疑将变得更加的困难！ We not only cannot draw back now, but should also not make military preparations before these city-state of Greece, speeds up to the attack of Sparta army, so long as can defeat Sparta, the situation will become will be favorable for us! ” 我们现在不但不能退,还应该趁着希腊的这些城邦还没有做好军事准备之前,加快对斯巴达军队的进攻,只要能够打败斯巴达,局势就会变得对我们有利！” Crotokatax the 1st time is led to go to battle after all, is short of the experience, follows on somebody's heels on the bad news, suddenly is scared, under the heavy pressure will choose unavoidably conservatively, after Purin Towles's reminder, he realizes immediately: If oneself do that without doubt will cause the war to continue to lengthen, not only the big consumption national strength, will increase the casualties, will let always about oneself be disappointed in the father who in the war goes all out...... 克洛托卡塔克斯毕竟是第一次领军出征,欠缺经验,又恰逢坏消息接踵而来,一时间慌了神,重压之下难免会选择保守,经普林托尔斯的提醒,他立刻意识到:如果自己这麽做,无疑会导致战争持续延长,不但会大大的消耗国力,增加伤亡,也会让一向在战争中锐意进取的父亲对自己感到失望…… Thinks of these, he cheers up, immediately changed a statement saying: „Right that Sir Purin Towles, you said that we should step up to attack the Sparta army, but how should do specifically?!” 想到这些,他振作起精神,当即改口说道:“普林托尔斯大人,你说的对,我们应该加紧进攻斯巴达军队,但是具体该怎么做？！” „Your highness, first should send the messenger to inform us in the beautiful Senia's guarding army, making them strengthen the defense to north border, and prepares to conduct the military mobilization to Messenians at any time.” Purin Towles suggested patiently: „ Next we should branch out some mounted scouts and detection soldiers, investigates to the west, not only loves the situation in Lyss area, the trend of Aka Diaz Alliance army, provides against contingencies. “殿下,首先应该派信使通知咱们在美塞尼亚的驻守军队,让他们加强对北部边境的防御,并且随时准备对美塞尼亚人进行军事动员。”普林托尔斯耐心的建议道:“其次我们应该分出部分侦骑和侦查士兵,向西探查,不光是爱利斯地区的情况,还有阿卡狄亚联盟军队的动向,以防万一。 Then, your highness you must write a letter to tell Secker to set up secure, we now the difficult position, urging him to launch the attack to the Sparta coast, realizes landing as soon as possible. 然后,殿下你要写信告诉塞克立安,我们现在所处的困境,督促他向斯巴达海岸发起进攻,尽快实现登陆。 Meanwhile, we lead the principal force east-bound Tiger inferior (Asia) territory, first does not attack the Sparta camp on own initiative, but in Tiger inferior (Asia) and Sparta border pretends that must build a new camp, forcing the Sparta army to have the camp to fight a decisive battle with us. ” 同时,我们率领主力部队东进泰格亚领地,先不主动进攻斯巴达营地,而是在泰格亚与斯巴达边境假装要修筑一个新的营地,逼迫斯巴达军队出营与我们进行决战。” „If the Sparta army cannot close, after wants jointly to love the Lyss army, conducts the decisive battle with us again?” Crotokatax cannot bear ask. “如果斯巴达军队闭营不出,想联合爱利斯军队之后,再与我们进行决战呢？”克洛托卡塔克斯忍不住问道。 „We really build the camp there, blocks return avenue that the Sparta person goes home, then sends some soldiers to coordinate the fleet soldier of first fleet, storms into the Sparta territory...... I to think that from north the Sparta person is not willing to notice such situation appears.” Purin Towles said unhurriedly. “那我们就真的在那里修筑营地,封锁斯巴达人回家的归路,然后派遣部分士兵配合第一舰队的舰队士兵,从北面攻入斯巴达领地……我想斯巴达人绝不愿意看到这样的情况出现。”普林托尔斯不慌不忙地说道。 Listens to Purin Towles's words, Crotokatax to be lost in thought that long time does not react. 听完普林托尔斯的话,克洛托卡塔克斯陷入沉思中,良久不做回应。 Purin Towles cannot bear ask: „Your highness, about my plan you thought that insufficient which has?” 普林托尔斯忍不住问道:“殿下,对我的计划你觉得有哪些不足吗？” The Crotokatax hear Purin Towles had some discontented, saying of busy apology: „Sir Purin Towles, your suggestion is good, I have no objection! Very sorry, I was a little distracted a moment ago , because your plan encouraged me, made me have an idea.” 克洛托卡塔克斯听出了普林托尔斯有些许不满,忙歉意的说道:“普林托尔斯大人,你的建议非常好,我没有任何异议！很抱歉,我刚才有点走神,是因为你的计划激励了我,也让我也有了一个主意。” Crotokatax admits mistakes on own initiative, not only makes Purin Towles obstruction completely disappear, is on the contrary small-minded from ashamed, therefore earnest asking: „What great idea does your highness have?” 克洛托卡塔克斯的主动认错不但让普林托尔斯芥蒂尽消,反倒自愧自己过于小肚鸡肠,于是认真的问道:“请问殿下有什么好主意？” „ I have looked at the Greek main city-state past history in Thurii in detail, before liked Lees expressing the good intentions to us, was although because it was one in Peloponnese union, but in Peloponnesian War because of the ownership of row Prion, had had the enmity with Sparta. Before the Corinth war, the Sparta army invades to love the Lyss territory, seized its some territories forcefully. After ‚king peace treaty’ signing, Sparta supports Pisa, the Olympic Games right to host that by loving Lees will have will give to Pisa forcefully...... from now on, will like a native of Lyss hating to the marrow of the bones about Sparta, when will know our armies to with the Sparta fight, they very happy, will also send Owne Cousse to arrive at beautiful Senia along with the fleet. “我在图里伊的时候详细看过希腊本土主要城邦以往的历史,之前爱利斯之所以对我们表达善意,是因为虽然它是伯罗奔尼撒同盟中的一员,但在伯罗奔尼撒战争中就曾经因为列普里昂的归属,与斯巴达有过仇怨。在科林斯战争之前,斯巴达军队又入侵爱利斯领地,强行占领了它的一些领地。在‘大王和约’签订之后,斯巴达更是扶持比萨,将原本由爱利斯拥有的奥林匹亚运动会的举办权强行转让给了比萨……自此,爱利斯人对斯巴达恨之入骨,所以当得知我们的军队要同斯巴达战斗时,他们非常的高兴,还派伊奥尼库斯随船队来到美塞尼亚。 Now likes Lees agreeing to join to revolt against our Greek Alliance, perhaps is because Pisa submits to it on own initiative, making it have the opportunity to unify the Peloponnese western area finally completely. However it forgot, if we were really defeated, withdrew from Peloponnese, once Sparta restored the strength, can strive for the leading power of western area with it...... 现在爱利斯之所以同意加入反抗我们的希腊联盟,恐怕是因为比萨主动向它屈服,让它终于有机会完全统一伯罗奔尼撒的西部地区。但是它忘了,如果我们真的被击败,退出了伯罗奔尼撒,一旦斯巴达重新恢复了实力,还是会和它争夺西部地区的主导权…… Therefore we should send diplomat Callias II to go abroad on a diplomatic mission to love Lees, makes the commitment to them, ‚not necessarily requests to like Lees supporting us, so long as likes Lees being able to remain neutral, Theonia will support to like Lees becoming the hegemon in Peloponnese western area’......, even if likes a native of Lyss not agreeing that finally our suggestions, they will therefore still argue hesitant, thus delays in view of our military mobilizations...... Sir Purin Towles, how do you feel? ” 所以我们应该派外交官卡里阿斯出使爱利斯,向他们作出承诺,‘不一定要求爱利斯支持我们,但只要爱利斯能保持中立,戴奥尼亚就将支持爱利斯成为伯罗奔尼撒西部地区的盟主’……就算最终爱利斯人不同意我们的建议,他们也会因此发生犹豫和争执,从而延缓针对我们的军事动员……普林托尔斯大人,你觉得如何？” The suggestion of Crotokatax lets only concentrate on Purin Towles eyes bright, heartfelt saying of military: „Your highness, your suggestion was really wonderful! I felt we not only need make Callias II go abroad on a diplomatic mission to love Lees, but can also make him go abroad on a diplomatic mission other city-state, thus disrupts to start not to favor our Greek situations......” 克洛托卡塔克斯的建议让只专注于军事方面的普林托尔斯眼睛一亮,由衷的赞道:“殿下,你的建议实在是太妙了！我觉得我们不但要让卡里阿斯出使爱利斯,还可以让他出使其他的城邦,从而扰乱开始不利于我们的希腊局势……” ............................................................ …………………………………………………… Crotokatax and Purin Towles are implementing their plans with a sense of urgency, however they receives the news that the mounted scout fed in 2nd day: The Sparta army is attacking Tiger inferior (Asia) city. 克洛托卡塔克斯和普林托尔斯在抓紧实施他们的计划,但是在第二天他们接到了侦骑传回的消息:斯巴达军队正在进攻泰格亚城。 Sparta army attack makes Purin Towles feel that on own initiative this is one with the good opportunity of Sparta army decisive battle, therefore at the suggestion of his, Crotokatax leaves behind 3000 soldiers to guard the camp, leading the army to go to rescue. 斯巴达军队的主动出击让普林托尔斯觉得这是一个与斯巴达军队决战的好机会,于是在他的提议下,克洛托卡塔克斯留下3000名士兵驻守营地,率领军队前去救援。 The path to lead to Tiger inferior (Asia) is the width is narrow, the fluctuating uneven mountain road, the two sides are the elevation high hill, experienced Purin Towles has not made Crotokatax advance recklessly, but is the suggestion first sends the mountain ridge reconnaissance group to verify the peripheral situation, really discovered that has the Sparta army ambush in the mountain ridge. 通向泰格亚的道路是宽度较窄、起伏不平的山路,两边是海拔较高的山丘,经验丰富的普林托尔斯并没有让克洛托卡塔克斯冒进,而是建议先派山岭侦察大队探明周边的情况,果然发现有斯巴达军队埋伏在山岭中。 Therefore, Crotokatax sends out by the composite troops that the light armor-clad soldier and light infantry compose, on hill launched the attack to the Sparta army of ambush on own initiative. 于是,克洛托卡塔克斯派出以轻甲兵、轻步兵组成的混合部队,主动向埋伏在山丘上的斯巴达军队发起了进攻。 The fight is not intense, this Sparta army does not have the Sparta soldier to assume personal command, is mainly the mercenaries, moreover without heavy infantry, after the whereabouts exposes, faced with the well-trained Theonia light armor-clad soldier and light infantry acted in harmony the attack, quick to choose retreating. 战斗并不算激烈,这支斯巴达军队并没有斯巴达战士坐镇,主要都是雇佣军,而且没有重步兵,在行踪暴露之后,面临训练有素的戴奥尼亚轻甲兵、轻步兵配合默契的进攻,很快就选择了撤退。 However the fight between mountain ridges delayed the time, to the dusk, the Theonia army has to select the camping rest shortly quickly. 但是山岭间的战斗耽搁了时间,眼看快到黄昏,戴奥尼亚军队不得不择地宿营休息。 3rd day early morning, the Theonia army starts to continue to march, but to prevent the ambush and making a harassing attack of Sparta army, the marching speed is not fast, entered Tiger inferior (Asia) territory to the morning leading troops. 第三天一早,戴奥尼亚军队就开始继续行军,但为了防止斯巴达军队的埋伏和袭扰,行军速度并不快,到了上午先头部队才进入泰格亚领地。 Tiger inferior (Asia)- the Mantinea plain is Aka Diaz area rare area big smooth land, it is together the north south long and narrow region, the rivers vertically and horizontally/able to move unhindered during, the land is quite fertile, is in the entire Peloponnese peninsula the famous wheat planter area, is the granary in Aka Diaz area. 泰格亚-曼丁尼亚平原是阿卡狄亚地区难得的一块面积较大的平坦土地,它是一块南北走向的狭长地域,河流纵横其间,土地较为肥沃,是整个伯罗奔尼撒半岛上有名的小麦种植区,也是阿卡狄亚地区的粮仓。 The soldiers pass through the mountainous region to climb mountains and cross rivers, arrive at the field of vision open plain, sees everywhere is the green and glossy wheat field, assumes wave type fluctuating in the breeze, the spirit inspires all. 士兵们经过山地跋涉,来到视野开阔的平原,看到遍地都是绿油油的麦田,在微风中呈波浪样起伏,无不精神一振。 Crotokatax does not have the leisure to admire the scenery, because he has received the return of mounted scout: The Sparta army is fiercely attacking Tiger inferior (Asia) city, the tactical situation is intense, looked that the situation Tiger native of Asia casualties are serious, could not somewhat have resisted. 克洛托卡塔克斯没有闲情来欣赏风景,因为他已经接到侦骑的回报:斯巴达军队正在猛攻泰格亚城,战况非常激烈,看形势泰格亚人伤亡惨重,已经有些抵挡不住了。 Beforehand Purin Towles and high-ranking military officers have had the analysis: Tiger inferior (Asia) under the asylum of Sparta person, does not construct own city wall like Mantinea person for a long time carefully, its city wall has not maintained for a long time, outside the city does not have the trenches and other defense facilities, but Tiger inferior (Asia) after all is the big nation that Aka Diaz area ranks among the best, the population are many, should be able to persevere some time. 事先普林托尔斯与众将官就有过分析:泰格亚长期在斯巴达人的庇护下,不像曼丁尼亚人那样精心的修建自己的城墙,它的城墙长期没有维护,城外也没有壕沟和其他防御设施,但泰格亚毕竟是阿卡狄亚地区数一数二的大邦,人口不少,应该能够坚守一段时间。 So quickly to be how good? 怎么会这么快就不行了？ The situation that the mounted scout but who one after another returns to reports is consistent: The Sparta army surrounds Tiger inferior (Asia) city completely, the Sparta soldier have attacked Tiger inferior (Asia) top several times, under Tiger inferior (Asia) city everywhere is the corpse...... 但接二连三返回的侦骑所汇报的情况都一致:斯巴达军队将泰格亚城完全包围,斯巴达士兵已经几次攻上了泰格亚城头,泰格亚城下到处都是尸体…… It seems like without a doubt, under the storms of Sparta army tens of thousands soldiers, Tiger inferior (Asia) city is in imminent danger! 看来毋庸置疑,在斯巴达军队几万士兵的强攻下,泰格亚城岌岌可危！ Crotokatax and Purin Towles cannot allow Tiger inferior (Asia) city to fall into the hand of Sparta person, because of now spring, Tiger inferior (Asia) People family/home in grain is very first sufficient, this can the lacking grain situation of big alleviation Sparta army ; Next, Sparta attacked and occupied Tiger inferior (Asia) city situated in plain center, stands firm on this plain, but can also continue to north threatens Mantinea, obtained certain strategy to be initiative. 克洛托卡塔克斯和普林托尔斯是绝不能允许泰格亚城落入斯巴达人的手中,因为首先现在才还是春天,泰格亚民众家中的粮食还很充足,这可以大大的缓解斯巴达军队的缺粮情况;其次,斯巴达攻占了位于平原中心的泰格亚城,就在这片平原上站稳了脚跟,还可以继续向北威胁曼丁尼亚,获得了一定的战略主动。 Therefore Crotokatax issued the order: „Picks up the marching speed, goes forward to Tiger inferior (Asia) city!” 因此克洛托卡塔克斯下达了命令:“加快行军速度,向泰格亚城前进！” Meanwhile, this Prince Theonia also added an order: „As far as possible do not step on the bad wheat field!” 同时,这位戴奥尼亚王子还加了一条命令:“尽量不要踩坏小麦田！” Tiger inferior (Asia) city from its southwest edge is about more than ten li (0.5 km), moreover its topography is smooth, the speed that the Theonia army goes forward is also fast, by noon the leading troops have been able to look out the outline of Tiger inferior (Asia) city. 泰格亚城距离其西南边缘不过十几里,而且其地势平坦,戴奥尼亚军队前进的速度又较快,到中午时先头部队已经可以遥望到泰格亚城的轮廓。 At this time, Crotokatax receives the return of mounted scout: Majority of Sparta army has abandoned a siege, and start lets soldier surface western North Korea, conducts formation. 此时,克洛托卡塔克斯又接到侦骑的回报:斯巴达军队的大部分已经撤围,并且开始让士兵面朝西,进行列阵。 The Sparta person was doing at this time is conducting the preparation of battle with us!...... Crotokatax saw the goal that oneself sought to achieve quickly, first was a joy, later felt anxious, after all the forthcoming battle will be deciding the life and death of successes or failures as well as myriad soldiers of Theonia army. 斯巴达人这时在作着同我们进行会战的准备！……克洛托卡塔克斯见自己寻求的目的这么快就要达到了,先是一阵欣喜,随后又感到了紧张,毕竟即将到来的会战将决定着戴奥尼亚军队的成败以及万千士兵的生死。 Naturally, Purin Towles was calmer, he suggested that the army postponed the advance, meanwhile the request first went to the short distance to examine the set up formation situation of Sparta army. 当然,普林托尔斯就镇定多了,他建议军队暂缓前进,同时还要求先去近距离查看斯巴达军队的布阵情况。 After Crotokatax hear, indicated to go, and also „also went forth to battle to observe in the fight with my father frequently personally” is the reason, shut the mouth of persuasion. 克洛托卡塔克斯听后,也表示要前去,并且还用“我父亲在战斗中也经常亲自上阵观察”为理由,堵住了劝说者们的嘴。
