According to the tradition of Greece, after a fight , a side that defeats can also send for the battlefield cleanup, carries off compatriot who died in battle, with the aim of giving its dignified funeral. In the past Theonia rarely fulfilled this tradition, because their most times are the victors, to exploit victory, excelled after defeating continue to pursue, the opposite party escaped, for fear that was less, where also had the thoughts to handle other things. Only the Theonia army defends the attack of Greek Allied armies these days, the military tradition of this Greece can very good fulfillment. 按照希腊的传统,一场战斗之后战败的一方也可以派人打扫战场,带走战死的同胞,以便给予其一个体面的葬礼。以往戴奥尼亚很少履行这一传统,因为他们绝大多数时候都是胜利者,而且为了扩大战果,又擅长在战胜之后继续追击,对方逃命唯恐不及,哪里还有心思去做其他事情。只有在这段时间戴奥尼亚军队防御希腊联军的进攻,这一希腊的军事传统才得以很好的履行。 Tens of thousands exhausted Greek Allied armies soldiers start to retreat to the camp of row Prion slowly. 几万名身心疲惫的希腊联军士兵开始缓缓向列普里昂的营地撤退。 The row Prion is less than 20 li (0.5 km) from the beautiful Senia north border, this is located in likes south the Lyss area small town attached in loving Lees, afterward was won by Sparta, after liking Lees joining Greek Alliance, righteous takes back it. Because when attacks the Ragogna area Greek Allied armies to suffer making a harassing attack of Theonia soldier when the camping frequently, therefore after moving to the army attacks beautiful Senia, Iphicrates drew the lesson, is stationed in distance battlefield far row Prion the army, mainly for security. 列普里昂距离美塞尼亚北部边境不到20里,这座位于爱利斯地区南部的小城原本附属于爱利斯,后来被斯巴达夺走,爱利斯加入希腊联盟之后,又理直气壮的将其收回。由于在进攻拉格尼亚地区的时候希腊联军在宿营时频繁遭受戴奥尼亚士兵的袭扰,因此在移军进攻美塞尼亚之后,伊菲克拉特斯吸取了教训,才将大军驻扎在距离战场较远的列普里昂,主要是为了安全。 In this returns to the road in camp, many other city-state series army general come to complain to Iphicrates in abundance, told „their soldiers' casualties many...... and so on today's fight” and so on words, disclosed similar meaning, they are not willing to conduct such frigid siege warfare again. 在这回营的路上,多个其他城邦的统军将领纷纷来向伊菲克拉特斯诉苦,讲述“他们的士兵在今天的战斗中伤亡不少……”等等之类的话,话里话外都透露出相似的意思,他们不愿意再进行这样惨烈的攻城战。 In fact, after attacking the Ragogna area suffers a loss, various city-state armies to attacking the Theonia defense camp have scruples, if not because they attacked and occupied a Theonia camp a while ago, boosts the confidence, and first invests the fight to take the model in today's Iphicrates most Athens armies, but also issued the order of general attack, fight that other city-state armies will not so go all out. 实际上,在进攻拉格尼亚地区北部吃了亏之后,各城邦军队就对进攻戴奥尼亚防御营地有所顾忌,如果不是因为前段时间他们攻占了一个戴奥尼亚营地,重新鼓舞起信心,并且在今天伊菲克拉特斯将大部分雅典军队首先投入战斗作为表率,还下达了全面进攻的命令,其他城邦军队也不会如此卖力的战斗。 But the fact showed, couple days ago that small victory was a false appearance, the defense of Theonian not only has not weakened, instead strengthened, but the attacking a city ability of Greek Allied armies had some enhancements( to attack in the fight of Theonia camp unceasingly, absorbed substantial experiences), was still not enough to break through the Theonia army complex camp defense system. 但事实证明,前几天的那场小胜利不过是一个假象,戴奥尼亚人的防御不但没有减弱,反而增强了,而希腊联军的攻城能力虽然有了一些提高(在不断攻打戴奥尼亚营地的战斗中,吸取了不少经验),仍然不足以攻破戴奥尼亚军队复杂的营地防御系统。 Regarding the vague expressions of these general, Iphicrates gave the same answer: Allied armies no longer storm Theonia defense camp! 对于这些将领们的隐晦表达,伊菲克拉特斯都给予了相同的的答复:联军将不再强攻戴奥尼亚防御营地！ The Iphicrates so affirmative reply makes general be surprised, but this UN command did not have to say one again. 伊菲克拉特斯如此肯定的回答让将领们感到惊讶,但是这位联军统帅却没有再多说一句。 Returned to the army tent/account of row of Prion camps, Iphicrates just to take off armor, the off-balance guard came to report: „General, General Jason seeks an interview.” 回到列普里昂营地的军帐,伊菲克拉特斯刚刚脱下身上的盔甲,帐外的卫兵就进来报告:“将军,伊阿宋将军求见。” „Asked him to come in quickly.” “快请他进来。” Jason stride walks to march the tent/account, but also without and other Iphicrates opens the mouth, straightforward saying: „I heard that you declared to the outside, Theonia camp that will give up attacking beautiful Senia, is this real?!” 伊阿宋大步走进军帐,还没等伊菲克拉特斯开口,就直截了当的说道:“我听说你对外宣称,将放弃进攻美塞尼亚的戴奥尼亚营地,这是真的吗？！” Jason who looks at a sending a punitive expedition appearance, Iphicrates calm saying: „General Jason, I am just about to send people to look for you, never expected that you first came. Right, I have meant this words, but-” 看着一副兴师问罪模样的伊阿宋,伊菲克拉特斯平心静气的说道:“伊阿宋将军,我正要派人去找你,没想到你先来了。没错,我是说过这个话,但是-” „This is a stupid decision!” Jason is looking straight ahead him, tone firm saying: „We cannot, because today's loss is big, gave up the attack. Our casualties are big, Theonian is also no better, before you withdraw troops, my soldier have attacked the wooden wall several times, although was caught up by the enemy finally, but this explained that our attacks are effective! So long as we will also maintain such attack effort over the following several days, can certainly break through Theonian line of defense!” “这是一个愚蠢的决定！”伊阿宋直视着他,语气坚决的说道:“我们不能因为今天的损失较大,就放弃了进攻。我们伤亡大,戴奥尼亚人也好不到哪里去,在你撤兵之前,我的士兵已经几次攻上了木墙,虽然最后被敌人赶了下来,但这说明我们的进攻是有效的！只要接下来几天我们还维持这样的进攻力度,就一定可以攻破戴奥尼亚人的防线！” At this point, Jason shows a vicious look: „Do not listen to various excuses of these city-state general, under you should continue to hit the order of storm like today! If you really must stop attacking the Theonia camp, then sorry, I will no longer participate in you war with Theonia, leading the army to return to Thessaly!” 说到这里,伊阿宋露出一丝凶狠的神色:“别听那些城邦将领的各种借口,你就应该像今天这样继续下打强攻的命令！如果你真的要停止进攻戴奥尼亚营地,那么对不起,我将不再参与你们同戴奥尼亚的战争,率领军队返回塞萨利！” Facing Jason's threat, Iphicrates blinks, shows a helpless smile: „Respectable General Jason, I know certainly, so long as continues to attack, certainly will break through the Theonia camp, but I make such decision, is not because the worry casualties are oversized, because-” 面对伊阿宋的威胁,伊菲克拉特斯眨眨眼睛,露出一丝无奈的笑容:“尊敬的伊阿宋将军,我当然知道了只要继续进攻,一定会攻破戴奥尼亚营地,但是我之所以做出这样的决定,并不是因为担心伤亡过大,而是因为-” Iphicrates stopped, said with emphasis: „I just received a message from Athens, four days ago the Theonia navy blocks Saronic Gulf suddenly, causing our warships unable to leave port, but the fishermen in our North coast discovered an unusual situation, some large number of Theonia ships deliver the soldier to bypass Euboea, entered the Maria Kaess bay-” 伊菲克拉特斯停顿了一下,加重语气说道:“我刚刚收到了一个来自雅典的消息,四天之前戴奥尼亚海军突然封锁萨龙湾,致使我们的战船无法出港,但是我们北海岸的渔民还是发现了一个异常的情况,有大量戴奥尼亚船只运载着士兵绕过优卑亚岛,进入了马里亚科斯海湾-” „Theonian must attack my Thessaly!” Jason changed the complexion immediately, he is looking angrily at Iphicrates: „Such important news, how didn't you say early?!” “戴奥尼亚人要突袭我的塞萨利！”伊阿宋顿时变了脸色,他怒视着伊菲克拉特斯:“这么重要的消息,你怎么不早说？！” „Such large-scale war, making any decision must be prudent, after my Athens powwow obtains this news, does everything possible to verify the truth, for this reason also lost many ships, finally determined that the Theonia army truly landed Thessaly, the general executive committee sent the messenger to ride the fast horse urgently, catching up around the clock came to here-” “这么大规模的战争,做出任何决定都必须慎重,我雅典的议事会得到这个消息之后,又想尽办法去查明真相,为此还损失了多艘船只,最终才确定戴奥尼亚军队确实登陆了塞萨利,将军执行委员会才紧急派遣信使骑快马,昼夜不停的赶来这里-” „How many people lands the Thessaly Theonia army to have?!” Jason interrupts his words unrestrained/no trace of politeness, anxious asking. “登陆塞萨利的戴奥尼亚军队有多少人？！”伊阿宋毫不客气地打断他的话,急切的问道。 „According to our judgments, will not be lower than 30,000 people.” “根据我们的判断,不会低于3万人。” Jason without delay, a face anxious stride goes out of the army tent/account. 伊阿宋二话不说,一脸焦急的大步走出军帐。 Iphicrates also quickly shouted own adjutant: „Hurries to send people to inform various city-state general, said...... ‚, because in Thessaly discovered that the trail of Theonia army, the Thessaly army must hurry back the rescue, making them should not be anxious, controls own soldier’......” 伊菲克拉特斯也急忙叫来了自己的副官:“赶紧派人去通知各城邦的将领,就说……‘由于塞萨利境内发现戴奥尼亚军队的踪迹,塞萨利军队要赶回去救援,让他们不要紧张,控制好自己的士兵’……” The adjutant listened also to feel anxious, hurried saying: „I manage immediately.” 副官听完也感到了紧张,赶紧说道:“我马上去办。” „-” Iphicrates facial expression serious saying: „You go to a Thessaly military compound personally, told Jason, said that I suggested he commanded the army to go north directly, across loving the Lyss area, travelled by boat to cross the Corinth Gulf...... to take this route from Patras or the harbor of corner/horn to save a lot of time.” “还有-”伊菲克拉特斯神情郑重的说道:“你亲自去一趟塞萨利军营,告诉伊阿宋,就说我建议他率军直接北上,穿过爱利斯地区,从帕特雷或者瑞昂角的港口坐船渡过科林斯海湾……走这条路线会节省不少时间。” Saying, he pulls out several letters from the bosom: „This is I in the name of Athens, writes for loving Lees and Patras, the letter of corner/horn, hopes that they can help Thessalian. You give Jason these letters.” 说着,他又从怀里掏出几封信:“这是我以雅典的名义,写给爱利斯和帕特雷、瑞昂角的信件,希望他们能够帮助塞萨利人。你把这些信都交给伊阿宋。” After packing off the adjutant, Iphicrates also went out of the army tent/account, by also very thin dim light of night, looks to the Thessaly military compound direction, there horse's neigh person shouted, blasted out the pot completely. 送走副官之后,伊菲克拉特斯也走出了军帐,透过还很稀薄的夜色,望向塞萨利军营的方向,那里马嘶人喊,完全是炸开了锅。 In fact Iphicrates lies to Jason, General Athens executive committee to his letter in not only requests him to increase to the Theonia attack effort, but also the strict order he must conceal this news to Thessalian, only then relates Callistratus who is better to write with him to his another letter/believes, proposed one persuasively: He can act according to the battlefield situation, makes conforms to the decision of Athens benefit. 实际上伊菲克拉特斯向伊阿宋说了谎,雅典将军执行委员会给他的信件中不但要求他加大对戴奥尼亚的进攻力度,而且严令他要向塞萨利人隐瞒这个消息,只有跟他关系要好的卡利斯特拉图斯写给他的另一封信中,婉转的提了一句:他可以根据战场的情况,做出最符合雅典利益的决定。 At these days of confrontation and battle with Theonia army, Iphicrates had realized that the Theonia army had very strong ability in the defensive operation, but various city-state armies of Greek Alliance have not experienced so the attacking a city combat of intensity obviously, does not dare to withstand too many casualties, therefore is always present at work in all previous attacking camp battle, but does not strive, including Athens army is also so. Iphicrates after receiving the order of Athens, issues the dead order today finally, initiated the storm, but finally as before disappointing, not only cannot break through the enemy, the casualties on the contrary suddenly increasing not only make allied country general back down, making he himself also feel that the heart is startled. 在同戴奥尼亚军队的对峙和交战的这段时间里,伊菲克拉特斯已经体会到了戴奥尼亚军队在防御作战中具有很强的能力,而希腊联盟的各城邦军队显然没有经历过如此强度的攻城作战,不敢承受太多死伤,因此在历次的攻营战斗中总是出工、但不太出力,包括雅典军队自己也是如此。伊菲克拉特斯在接到雅典的命令之后,在今天终于下达死命令,发起了强攻,但结果依旧令人失望,不但没能攻破敌人,相反急剧增多的伤亡人数不但让盟邦将领们打起了退堂鼓,让他自己也感到心惊。 If , to continue to initiate the storm as Jason said that perhaps has not waited to break through Theonia line of defense, Greek Allied armies must be split up, he himself will also possibly encounter the impeachment of Athens ecclesia. Even if let alone Greek Allied armies pay the heavy price, finally defeated in the beautiful Senia's Theonia army, but Kingdom of Theonia will also send out the new army to Greece, sends out another army to land Thessaly like them, when the time comes has lost serious Greek Allied armies, resists their invasions with anything! 如果像伊阿宋所说的,继续发起强攻,恐怕还没等攻破戴奥尼亚的防线,希腊联军就得四分五裂,他自己也可能会遭到雅典公民大会的弹劾。更何况就算希腊联军付出沉重代价,最终击败了在美塞尼亚的戴奥尼亚军队,但戴奥尼亚王国还会向希腊派出新的军队,就象他们派出另一支军队登陆塞萨利一样,到时候已经损失惨重的希腊联军,拿什么来抵御他们的入侵！ Iphicrates had realized that the war with Theonia was impossible only to finish with 1-2 the victories of fights, wants the long-term and powerful Theonia army resists, must boss around Thessalian. In these days of fighting side-by-side, Iphicrates discovered the Thessaly army not only occupied half of quantities in Greek Allied armies, but also its battle efficiency is in the allied armies is also strongest, particularly that about ten thousand mercenaries not only the combat is fierce, but also rigid discipline. But as commander Jason of Thessaly army because, although cannot become the command of Greek Allied armies, is somewhat contradictory with Iphicrates, but treats each fight to concentrate on very much earnestly, its command capability is also very strong. 伊菲克拉特斯已经意识到同戴奥尼亚的战争不可能仅凭着1-2战斗的胜利就能够结束,要长期与实力强大的戴奥尼亚军队对抗,就必须得笼络好塞萨利人。在并肩作战的这段时间,伊菲克拉特斯发现塞萨利军队不但占据了希腊联军中的一半数量,而且其战斗力也是联军中最强的,尤其是那近万名雇佣兵不但作战勇猛,而且纪律严明。而作为塞萨利军队的统帅伊阿宋虽然因为没能当上希腊联军的统帅,同伊菲克拉特斯有些矛盾,但是对待每一场战斗都很认真专注,其指挥能力也很强。 If as the enemy, the Thessaly army is without doubt fearful, but as resisting the ally of powerful enemy, the Thessaly army without doubt is best helping, therefore Iphicrates decides to violate the order of general executive committee, after delaying day, told Jason personally „Thessaly by the Theonia army sneak attacked” the news, even if general the executive committee will closely examine and this matter in the future, he can still falsely assert that „Jason obtained news that the Thessaly messenger spread”, Athens was in any case impossible to block each path of Thessaly completely to Peloponnese. 如果作为敌人,塞萨利的军队无疑是可怕的,但作为对抗强敌的盟友,塞萨利军队无疑是最好的臂助,所以伊菲克拉特斯才决定违背将军执行委员会的命令,在拖延了一天的时间之后,亲自告诉伊阿宋“塞萨利被戴奥尼亚军队偷袭”的消息,即使将来将军执行委员会追问及此事,他也可以诡称“伊阿宋是得到了塞萨利信使传来的消息”,反正雅典不可能完全封锁住塞萨利通往伯罗奔尼撒的各个道路。 However, he prepares to send out the trusted aide servant to hurry back to Athens, disclosed this matter to his good friend Callistratus on the quiet, he believes that by Callistratus's foresight, will certainly support his, because of all these for Athens! 不过,他还是准备派出心腹奴仆赶回雅典,向他的好友卡利斯特拉图斯悄悄透露此事,他相信以卡利斯特拉图斯的远见,是一定会支持他的,因为这一切都是为了雅典！ In Iphicrates stands when off-balance thinking, his adjutant has hurried back to him reports: „General, I had given Jason the letter, he expressed gratitude to you, and added after he expelled Thessaly domestic Theonia army and stable rear area, certainly will command the army to catch up again, resisted Theonian with Greek Allied armies together......” 就在伊菲克拉特斯站在帐外浮想联翩之时,他的副官已经赶回来向他汇报:“将军,我已经将信件交给了伊阿宋,他向你表示感谢,并且还说等他赶走了塞萨利境内的戴奥尼亚军队、稳定后方之后,一定会率军再赶来,同希腊联军一起对抗戴奥尼亚人……”
