考虑到现今戴奥尼亚对波斯的巨大威胁,阿尔塔薛西斯对能征善战的特瑞巴苏斯有颇多依赖,所以他沉思了很久,最终严令情报部门不许再追查此事,不过对特瑞巴苏斯的监视要加强。On this day, inArtaxerxesalsowhenis the Babylonpolitical situationdoes not worrysteadily, ministerTerryBassoustakes the messengerjust the information that feeds from Egypt, entering the palaceinterviewhurriedly.
这一天,就在阿尔塔薛西斯还在为巴比伦政局的不稳而烦心的时候,大臣特瑞巴苏斯拿着信使刚从埃及传回的情报,急匆匆的进宫求见。„OutstandingHaoon the way ofgoing toTheoniaencountered the stormdeath, NickTandoPersialaunched the rebellion, is marchingtoMemphis-”Artaxerxessawhere, swept the dreariness in heart, excitingcalling out: „Egypthad the civil strife, thisis a rareopportunity! Weshouldseize the chanceto dispatch troops, tohelpNickTandoPersianameregainEgypt!”
“杰郝在前往戴奥尼亚途中遭遇风暴死亡,尼克塔尼波斯发动叛乱,正向孟菲斯进军-”阿尔塔薛西斯看到这里,一扫心中的阴郁,兴奋的叫道:“埃及发生了内乱,这是一个难得的机会!我们应该趁机出兵,以帮助尼克塔尼波斯的名义重新收复埃及!”TerryBassous'stactfulreminder: „BigWang Yingming, thistrulyis the golden opportunity of recapturingEgypt! NickTandoPersiadispatches troops into battlesuddenly, actuallynot to informus, obviouslyharborsotherthoughts, perhaps has guardedtous.”
特瑞巴苏斯委婉的提醒道:“大王英明,这确实是一个夺回埃及的大好机会!只是尼克塔尼波斯起兵突然,却没有通知我们,显然是怀有别的心思,恐怕是对我们有所防备。”„The Egyptcivil strifesame place, hehad no usetous.”Artaxerxesdisdainscast aside the lower jaw, thenserioussaying: „Whatweneedto be worriedis the Theoniareinforcements, mustcatch upbeforetheyarrive atEgyptsends out the army, so long as the armycrossedNile, to attack and occupyMemphis, Egyptbecameinourpalmsthing-”
“埃及内乱一起,他就对我们没有任何用处了。”阿尔塔薛西斯不屑的撇了下嘴,然后郑重的说道:“我们需要担心的是戴奥尼亚的援军,必须要赶在他们到达埃及之前派出大军,只要军队渡过了尼罗河、攻占了孟菲斯,埃及就成了我们的掌中之物-”Artaxerxesstopped, thensaidwith emphasis: „ThereforeIdecideto appointyou to attack the Egyptmilitarycommander, hopes that youcansuccessfullycomplete the kingdomto continuemanyyears of regret!”阿尔塔薛西斯停顿了一下,然后加重语气说道:“所以我决定任命你为进攻埃及的军事统帅,希望你能够成功完成王国持续了多年的遗憾!”TerryBassousfills with the hopefacingPersian king the look, immediatelybends the waistto salute, the clear and resonant voicesaid: „Thankking'strust! Ido certainly utmostto complete the mission, offers the kingEgypt!”
特瑞巴苏斯面对波斯王满怀期盼的眼神,当即弯腰行礼,朗声说道:“感谢大王的信任!我一定竭尽全力完成使命,将埃及献予大王!”„Iwait foryourvictory report!”Artaxerxesthinks,suddenlysaid: „IfyousuccessfullyrecaptureEgypt, Iwill marryyouatropic.”
“我等待你的捷报!”阿尔塔薛西斯想了想,突然说道:“如果你成功夺回埃及,我会将阿托莎嫁给你。”TerryBassouswas shocked, crossedsome little time, hehave mixed feelingsthanks politelyto depart.
特瑞巴苏斯愣住了,过了好一会儿,他才心情复杂的拜谢离去。..................................................................

Buthetosafeguardownsecurity, isimpossibleloyalto send outinownelite armythis, butistransfersBabylonnearbyarmy.阿尔塔薛西斯想要趁着埃及内乱,迅速发兵夺攻占埃及,最快捷的办法就是出动驻守巴比伦王廷的不死军。但他为了维护自己的安全,是不可能将这支忠诚于自己的精锐部队派出的,而是去调动巴比伦附近的军队。As the matter stands, is only masses troopsmustspenda lot oftime, not to mentionis more remoteto the EgyptdistancefromBabylon, needsto spendmanydate and time.
这样一来,光是集结军队就要花费不少时间,更别提从巴比伦到埃及路程遥远,也需要花费不少时日。TerryBassousawarealreadyinmaking best effortbuilding up of urgingarmy, butheactuallydoes not know the TheoniasacredkingdombeforeEgypthas the civil strifehas made the planin advance, when Persian kingissues the ordertohim, KingTheoniahas appointed the eighthlegatusKarsiTeeceofficiallyis the wartimecommander of Egyptreinforcements.
特瑞巴苏斯自觉自己已经在尽最大努力的督促军队的集结,但他却不知道戴奥尼亚神圣王国早在埃及发生内乱之前就已经预做筹谋,而当波斯王向他下达命令之时,戴奥尼亚国王已经正式任命第八军团长卡尔西狄斯为埃及援军的战时指挥官。In two days, assembled and awaited ordersSicily4regimentsas well aslight cavalryregimentsrespectively, so thatgoes on boardwithDrugateThumharbor, goes toEgypt.
仅仅过了两天,早已集结待命的西西里四个军团以及轻骑兵军团分别在利利俾和哈德鲁门图姆港口登船,前往埃及。Perhapsisblessing of Hades, the Theoniaarmyhas not encounteredanystormon the way of the range, smoothlyenters the Neroriver mouth5dayslater.
或许是哈迪斯的庇佑,戴奥尼亚军队在航程途中未遭遇任何风暴,在五天之后顺利进入尼罗河口。At this time, NickTandoPersiajustcapturedMemphis, foreignopenlydeclared: PharaohNeebhad died of illness, andpromulgatedto incur the bookbeforedeath, was taken over the pharaohbyoneself.
此时,尼克塔尼波斯才刚刚攻下孟菲斯,对外公开宣称:法老塔尼布已经病逝,并且在去世前颁布招书,让自己接任法老。Buthewhile that sincelets the pharaoh, to marry the queen, sends peopleto slaughter the trusted subordinate of the royal family memberandfirstpharaohwantonly, inMemphiscityflustered, but the entireNile Deltais also unstable.
但他在自任法老、强娶王后的同时,也派人大肆杀戮王室成员和前法老的亲信,孟菲斯城内人心惶惶,而整个尼罗河三角洲也动荡不安。Somecitylordsannounced that supportsNickTandoPersiathis„newpharaoh”, somecitiesmainactuallydispatch troops into battle to eradicate the rebel, somecitiesmainwait and see the development......
一些城主宣布拥护尼克塔尼波斯这个“新法老”,一些城主却起兵要铲除叛逆,一些城主则观望局势发展……InNaucratis of western Nile DeltaHekouis the GreekdescendantmostEgyptcities, isEgyptandTheoniaforms an alliancein the past 20 yearsprofits the biggestcities, not only the residentshave the favorable impressiontoTheoniavery much, but also many Theoniansettle downherefor a long time, has the Kingdom of Theoniaintelligence departmentpersonnel, theyhad convinced the official in Naucratiscitybeforehand, when therefore the fleet of full loadTheoniasoldiernears the sentry post in Hekou, Naucratiscityofficials and people'sKaesonggateunder the instigation of Theoniaintelligence personnel, lines upto greet.
在尼罗河三角洲西面河口的瑙克拉提斯是希腊后裔最多的埃及城镇,也是埃及与戴奥尼亚结盟近20年来受益最大的城镇,不但居民们对戴奥尼亚很有好感,而且有不少戴奥尼亚人在这里长期定居,其中就有戴奥尼亚王国的情报部人员,他们已经事先说服了瑙克拉提斯城的官员,因此当满载戴奥尼亚士兵的船队抵近河口的哨卡时,瑙克拉提斯城官员以及民众在戴奥尼亚情报人员的煽动下大开城门,列队迎接。WhensawTheoniasoldier who the military disciplineneat, has an imposing appearanceenormous and powerful when enters the Naucratiscity, the people are not only not worried, insteadfelt relievedgreatly, becausecansafeguard the securityin this turbulentperiodpowerfularmy, Naucratishad the asylum of Theoniaarmy, naturallycanbe far away from the chaos caused by war.
当看到军容齐整、气宇轩昂的戴奥尼亚士兵浩浩荡荡的进入瑙克拉提斯城时,民众不但不感到忧虑,反而大为放心,因为在此动荡的时期只有强大的军队才能保障安全,瑙克拉提斯有了戴奥尼亚军队的庇护,自然就能远离战乱。KarsiTeececommands the armyonlyafter the Naucratiscityrestsoneis late, with2nddayrapidriversidesouthbound, itsline of marchseveralyears ago catches up with the Theoniaarmy that rescuesto be completely samebecause of the Persiainvasion, but the goal is completely different.
卡尔西狄斯率军仅在瑙克拉提斯城休息一晚之后,就与第二天迅速沿河南进,其行进路线与几年前因为波斯入侵而赶来救援的戴奥尼亚军队完全相同,但是目的却完全不同。„The Theoniaallied armieswill eliminate the rebel , helping the Egyptpeopleregainpeace and tranquillity” the sloganwith the help of intelligence personnel, rapidlyspreads over the entireNile Delta.
“戴奥尼亚盟军将消灭叛逆、帮助埃及民众重新获得和平与安宁”的口号在情报人员的帮助下,迅速传遍整个尼罗河三角洲。Mustknow that the Theoniaarmyonceleft leeway the excellentimpressionin the heart of Egyptpeople: Theirdisciplineis strict, combatbrave, does not commit the slightest offensewith the people...... adds onabout40,000armies who KarsiTeeceleadsto be mammothagain, the Egyptcities that thereforepasses through have almost not madeanyresistance, opens the doorto greet.
要知道戴奥尼亚军队曾在埃及民众的心中留有极好的印象:他们军纪严明、作战勇敢、与民众秋毫无犯……再加上卡尔西狄斯所率领的近4万大军声势浩大,因此所途经的埃及城镇几乎未做任何抵抗,纷纷开门迎接。
The Theoniaarmyis smooth, quickapproachedunder the Memphiscity.戴奥尼亚军队一路顺畅,很快就逼近了孟菲斯城下。NickTandoPersiaoriginallyandPersiacollude, buttoexpandownstrength, with the aim ofusurping the thronein the future, buthe is very clear: Withwantsto annexcompared withEgyptPersiawholeheartedly, more than tenyears, savedTheonia of Egyptwith the Egyptunionseveraltimesindangerisbetteroperation target.
尼克塔尼波斯原本与波斯勾结,只是为了壮大自己的力量,以便将来篡位,但他心里很清楚:和一心想要吞并埃及的波斯相比,与埃及同盟了十几年、几次拯救埃及于危难之中的戴奥尼亚才是更好的合作对象。Thereforehedecided: After usurping the throneandsituationstabilizedslightly, immediatelytoTheoniasends the envoy, the expressionfriendlymeaning , to continue withitforming an alliance, with the aid ofitsstrength, defendsPersians.
所以他原本打定了主意:等到篡夺了王位、局势稍微稳定之后,就立刻向戴奥尼亚派去使者,表达友好之意,继续与之结盟,借助其力量,防御波斯人。Hehas not thought that the Theoniareinforcementswill comesuchrapidness, buthenotextremelyflustered, hethinks that oneselfis the nowadaysonlyEgyptroyal familybloodlines, andsucceeds the pharaohis the fact, inoneselfexpose the good intentionsin the situation, Theonia can only acknowledge that heis the nextpharaoh, andforms an alliancewithhim, is the bestresult.
只是他万万没有想到戴奥尼亚援军会来得如此之快,不过他也没有太过慌张,他认为自己是现今唯一的埃及王室血脉,并且继任法老已是事实,在自己展露出善意的情况下,戴奥尼亚只能承认他是下一任法老,并且与他结盟,才是最好的结果。Therefore, hetois sending out the envoytoward the Theoniaarmy that Memphismarches.
于是,他向正在朝孟菲斯进军的戴奥尼亚军队派出使者。Whoknowshas resulted in the envoy who KarsiTeece of King Davosinstructiondid not seehimto send, directlyitsdetention.
谁知已经得了戴弗斯国王指示的卡尔西狄斯根本不见他派来的使者,直接将其扣留。From the beginning, NickTandoPersiadoes not see the reply, but alsothinks that was the envoyhad/left the accident/surpriseon the way, manyenvoys but who sent outwent to the non-letter in reply, hestartedto feeldisturbed.
一开始,尼克塔尼波斯不见回信,还以为是使者在途中出了意外,但派出的多个使者都一去不复回,他开始感到了不安。Invadesin the EgyptwarinbeforehandPersia, hehad foughtwithTheonianshoulder to shoulder, has the quiteprofound understanding of the battle efficiency of Theoniaarmy, hetoownarmywhether to defeatTheoniannot to have the toobigconfidence, hejust nowseizesMemphislet alone, before these , the officials who the pharaohappointshave not submitted to himcompletely, oncehemakes warwith the Theoniaarmy, likely greatlytroublesome;Buton the other hand, hewaited fordeliberatelyso manyyears, takesthisgolden opportunitywith great difficultytime, sat the throne of pharaoh. But once hegives upMemphis, leading the armyto returnownden, is equivalent the acknowledgment that confessed without being pressedoneself is a rebel, not onlymet the prestigeto losegreatly, but also the position of pharaoh will also certainlybe usurpedby others......
在之前的波斯入侵埃及的战争中,他曾经与戴奥尼亚人并肩战斗过,对戴奥尼亚军队的战斗力有较为深刻的了解,他对自己的军队能否战胜戴奥尼亚人没有太大信心,更何况他才刚占领孟菲斯,那些前法老任命的官员们并没有对他完全臣服,一旦他同戴奥尼亚军队开战,很可能就会有大麻烦;但另一方面,他处心积虑的等待了这么多年,好不容易才利用这一次的大好机会,坐上了法老的宝座。可一旦他放弃孟菲斯,率军队退回自己的老巢,相当于不打自招的承认了自己是叛逆,不但会威望大失,而且法老之位也必将被他人所篡夺……
In NickTandoPersiais indecisive, the Theoniaarmyrapidapproachingto the Memphiscity, hehas also wantedto make the finaleffort, standsin the top, shouts propagandatoTheoniaarmycommanderKarsiTeece who under the cityheis knowingloudly, sincerelywill express itselfto be willingwithTheoniato form an allianceforever the meaning.
就在尼克塔尼波斯犹豫不决之际,戴奥尼亚军队已经迅速的逼近到孟菲斯城下,他还想做最后的努力,站在城头上,对着城下他所认识的戴奥尼亚军队指挥官卡尔西狄斯大声喊话,真诚的表达了自己愿意与戴奥尼亚永结盟好之意。Only then, KarsiTeecemakes the explicitresponse: „Neebpharaohwas the hero of Egyptperson( refers tohimoverthrowingPersiansin the rule of Egypt), was the Kingdom of Theoniabestfriend, Davosyour majestyissued the order, ‚mustpunish the traitor, executesmurderer who killedNeebpharaoh, canmake the Egyptpeoplefeel at ease, makingEgyptregain the peace!’”
直到此时,卡尔西狄斯才做出明确的回应:“塔尼布法老是埃及人的英雄(指的是他推翻了波斯人在埃及的统治),也是戴奥尼亚王国最好的朋友,戴弗斯陛下下达命令,‘一定要严惩叛逆者,处决杀死塔尼布法老的凶手,才能让埃及民众安心,让埃及恢复和平!’”At this time, NickTandoPersiaunderstandsfinallyoneself and war between Theoniawas inevitable.
这时,尼克塔尼波斯终于明白自己与戴奥尼亚之间的战争不可避免。Butalsoin the meantime, originallyguardingalsoarrives inMemphisnearbysectionin a NaucratisEgyptinland riverfleet and more than tensmall-scalewarships of Theoniafirstfleetone after another.
而也就在此时,原本驻守在瑙克拉提斯的一支埃及内河舰队与戴奥尼亚第一舰队的十几艘小型战船也相继抵达孟菲斯附近的河段。As the matter stands, the Theoniaarmybasicallycompletedsurroundingto the Fezcity, NickTandoPersiawantsto command the armyto evacuateMemphisagain, isimpossible, he can only strengthen the citydefensehurriedly, simultaneouslysends out the messenger, takes riskto run out ofsurrounding, rushes toRamessescity( pharaohRamesses IIto construct, the presentisNickTandoPersiastation) requests reinforcements, andseeks the supporttoPersians.
这样一来,戴奥尼亚军队基本对孟非斯城完成了包围,尼克塔尼波斯想要再率军撤离孟菲斯,已经是不可能,他只能匆忙加强城池防御,同时派出信使,冒险冲出包围,赶往培-拉美西斯城(法老拉美西斯二世所建,现在是尼克塔尼波斯的驻地)求援,并且向波斯人寻求支持。KarsiTeecedoes not giveNickTandoPersiacushion the time, launched the attackin2nddayto the Fezcity, attacks a cityconsecutive several days, althoughmakes the Theoniaarmycasualtiesbig, the Egyptrebel army that butletsunderprepared felt hardto support.
卡尔西狄斯根本不给尼克塔尼波斯缓冲的时间,在第二天就对孟非斯城发起了进攻,连续几天的攻城虽然让戴奥尼亚军队伤亡不小,但更让准备不足的埃及叛军感到难以支撑。FirstpharaohNeebreigns for 20years, the Memphisofficials and people are affectedto be very deepbyit, usurping the throne of NickTandoPersiamadethembe discontented, buthisslaughteringtoroyal family memberandNeebtoofficial the countercurrent of makes good use ofmakes everyone has the hatred, whenhisdirectorarmydefendsattacking a city of Theoniaarmyfull powerwhenhas toweakento the control in city, someMemphisofficialsstrengthenedcontactin private, andtheyalsoconvincedin the city the clergy in PuttaSaintterritory.
前法老塔尼布在位20年,孟菲斯的官员和民众受其影响很深,尼克塔尼波斯的篡位本就让他们不满,而他对王室成员的杀戮和对塔尼布重用的官员的残酷迫害更让大家心怀仇恨,当他全力指挥军队防御戴奥尼亚军队的攻城而不得不减弱对城内的管控之时,一些孟菲斯官员加强了私下的联络,并且他们还说服了城内普塔圣域的僧侣。In6 thday that the siege warfarestartsearly morning, is still sleeping soundlywhile the exhaustedrebel armysoldiers, theseofficialsare led a several hundredpeople of army that pieces togetherbyownguardandslavebecomesto attack the west gate in Memphismaincity, becausein the teamcombined the clergies in somePuttaSaintterritories, the rebel armysoldiers who let the guardcity gatefeel helplesssuddenly, quickwas seized the city gate.
在攻城战开始的第六天凌晨,趁着疲惫的叛军士兵们还在熟睡,这些官员率领由自家的护卫、奴隶拼凑而成的一支几百人的军队突袭孟菲斯主城的西城门,由于队伍中混杂了一些普塔圣域的僧侣,让把守城门的叛军士兵一时间不知所措,很快就被夺占了城门。
