Moreover Davos once worried- in the situation of namely how in the Persians with large army defense made the army cross broad Euphrates river smoothly, but as a result of withdrawing of Persia army, this worried not to exist. 而且戴弗斯曾经有一个担忧-即如何在波斯人重兵防御的情况下让军队顺利渡过宽阔的幼发拉底河,但由于波斯军队的后撤,这个担忧不复存在。 In these days time, the project camp had put up three wooden bridges in the camp front Ao Rong Tees River, in 150,000 soldier very orderly crossing Syria Ao Rong Tees River, enormous and powerful marches forward to east directly. 在这几天的时间内,工程营已经在营地前方的奥戎提斯河上搭起了三座木桥,15万名士兵很有秩序的渡过叙利亚境内的奥戎提斯河,浩浩荡荡的径直向东行进。 Six days later, the leading troops had been close to Bertha Cousse. 六天之后,先头部队已经接近了塔波萨库斯。 In the mountain range from Asia Minor gallops, but Euphrates river, flowing from north to south in the westernmost of Mesopotamia plain, and converges many rivers one after another, formed a series of broad lakes, when to Dattas Bertha Cousse, it folds to east flows, causing its river surface to squeeze suddenly, thus becomes the Euphrates river upstream best fording section, the Persian king courtyard connects the Asia Minor imperial road to pass from here, therefore caused the prosperity of Bertha Cousse city. 从小亚细亚东部山脉中奔腾而出的幼发拉底河,由北至南的流淌在美索布达米亚平原的最西端,并且接连汇入多条河流,形成了一连串宽阔的湖泊,到达塔波萨库斯附近时,它折向东流,导致其河面骤然收窄,从而成为幼发拉底河上游最佳的渡河河段,波斯王庭连接小亚细亚的御道就是从这儿通过,也因此导致了塔波萨库斯城的繁荣。 When the Theonia leading troops rush to the Euphrates river West bank, the pleasantly surprised discovery Persia army has not burnt down the bateau-bridge of river bank when retreating unexpectedly, moreover this bateau-bridge is spacious, can simultaneously hold 10 soldiers to pass through abreast in row, omits the project camp to build the labor of bateau-bridge again. 等戴奥尼亚先头部队赶到幼发拉底河西岸时,惊喜的发现波斯军队在撤退时居然没有烧毁河上的浮桥,而且这浮桥非常宽敞,能够同时容纳十名士兵并排走过,省去了工程营再多搭浮桥的辛苦。 Next day Davos follows the army, arrived at west bank Euphrates river. He stops stands and waits for a long time near the bateau-bridge, the eye pours is wearing the unpadded garment, to shoulder the soldiers who the weapon armor wraps, on their faces has some expectation, the step firm stepping bateau-bridge, crossed broad Euphrates river, steps the strange Mesopotamia plain...... 第二天戴弗斯跟随中军,来到了幼发拉底河西岸。他停伫在浮桥边,目注着一个个身穿单衣、背负武器盔甲包裹的士兵们,他们的脸上带着某种憧憬,步履坚定的踏上浮桥,渡过宽阔的幼发拉底河,踏上陌生的美索不达米亚平原…… Rides does not attend to the weary, stiff upper body in immediately Davos, the right fist pastes in the left chest, looks solemn. Follows his palace guard also to turn toward the soldiers to salute in abundance. 骑在马上的戴弗斯不顾疲劳,挺直上身,右拳贴于左胸,神情肃穆。跟随他的宫廷卫队也纷纷向着士兵们行礼。 Sees this via the soldiers of bridge head, first is surprised, is then excited, but long line forward does not allow anybody to stop going forward rolling, but on the shoulder the heavy package and makes them leap not to act, therefore these most probably in Theonia was born, under the innumerable victory glory gradually influence the young soldiers who grow to gaze at the close kingdom founders, to create the kingdom highest military command of multiple military miracle by the vision of incomparable respect, excited shouting loudly: „Your majesty for victory!” 途经桥头的士兵们见到这一幕,先是惊讶,而后激动万分,但是滚滚向前的长龙不允许任何人停止前进,而肩上沉重的包裹又让他们腾不出手来,于是这些大半都是在戴奥尼亚出生、在无数胜利荣耀熏陶下成长起来的年轻士兵们以无比崇敬的目光注视着近在咫尺的王国缔造者、缔造多次军事奇迹的王国最高军事统帅,激动的高喊:“陛下万胜！” „Your majesty for victory!...... Your majesty for victory!!...... Your majesty for victory!!! When......” just started the scattered about shout gathers the same sound quickly, reverberates in this bridge head, and rapidly to team around disseminates, knew the soldiers who news just like hit the stimulant, puts behind exhausted of making a long and wearisome journey, quickened the step of advance...... “陛下万胜！……陛下万胜！！……陛下万胜！！！……”刚开始时七零八落的喊声很快汇聚成同一个声音,回荡在这桥头,并迅速向队伍的前后传播,得知消息的士兵们犹如打了兴奋剂,忘却了长途跋涉的疲惫,加快了前进的步伐…… Looks at this exciting one, Epiphanes cannot bear sigh: „30 years ago we are also here, just like these little fellows, hopeful is stepping on this bateau-bridge, entered front the bountiful Mesopotamia plain......” 看着这激动人心的一幕,埃皮忒尼斯忍不住感叹道:“30年前我们也是在这里,和这些小家伙一样,满怀希望的踩着这浮桥,进入了前面富饶的美索不达米亚平原……” „Don't forget, Meno led us as the army vanguard at that time, but 1st the Mesopotamia plain of entry!” Partly lay down Amintas on carriage continued, quite proud saying. “别忘了,当时梅农率领我们作为全军的先锋,可是第一个进入的美索不达米亚平原！”半躺在马车上的阿明塔斯接过话头,颇为自豪的说道。 His lower limb paralysis, is unable to walk, is made the servant lift him to march with the wooden palanquin, but the speed slow, is unable to follow the large unit, therefore Davos specially permits him to take the small-scale hood carriage. Since the army lands Egypt, because is unaccustomed to the climate, his physical condition has been unsatisfactory, may work as the army to step in the past Cyrus the Younger after the route that Babylon marches, his spirit actually became well. 他下肢瘫痪,无法走路,原本是让奴仆用木轿抬着他行军,但速度缓慢、无法跟上大部队,因此戴弗斯特许他可以乘坐小型的敞篷马车。自从大军登陆埃及之后,由于水土不服,他的身体状况一直不佳,可当军队重新踏上当年小居鲁士向巴比伦进军的路线之后,他的精神却变得好起来了。 „Amintas, this saying you also feel all right to say!” Once was saying that Agasias of another mercenaries team disdained: „In the past Meno rushed to work as the vanguard, said that must explore the way for the army, but who understands that he wants first to rush to the Mesopotamia plain to plunder, therefore Cyrus the Younger agreed his request, then issued the order to the army, forbade to plunder on the Mesopotamia plain, were you very disappointed at that time?” “阿明塔斯,这话你还好意思说出口！”曾经属于另一支雇佣军队伍的阿加西亚不屑的说道:“当年梅农抢着要当先锋,说是要为军队探路,可谁都明白他不过是想最先赶到美索不达米亚平原上抢掠,所以小居鲁士同意了他的要求,然后向全军下达命令,禁止在美索不达米亚平原上抢掠,你们当时是不是感到很失望？” „I have anything well disappointed-” Amintas is just about to refute, suddenly thought of anything, said intentionally loudly: „Shero Nims, a moment ago what you said is ‚we’! Do not forget, in the past your majesty was also ‚we’ one!” Saying, he also referred to Davos that in the front stands out of respect. “我有什么好失望的-”阿明塔斯正要反驳,突然想到了什么,故意大声说道:“希罗尼姆斯,你刚才说的是‘我们’吗！你可别忘了,当年陛下也是‘我们’中的一员！”说着,他还指了指在前方肃立的戴弗斯。 Hears this saying, a little feels nervous in Agasias that in this group of veterans always does not show one's self at this time, urgently argued: „Do not speak irresponsibly, I...... I-” 听到这话,在这帮老将中一向不显山不露水的阿加西亚此时有点发慌,急切辩解道:“你别乱说,我……我-” „Actually, we joined the mercenaries in the past, is Cyrus the Younger devotes life, also to survive.” Once was Shero Nims of another mercenaries leader spoke promptly, reduced and solved the awkwardness of Agasias: „Even if actually Cyrus the Younger to solve the anxiety of military expenses, still once allowed us to plunder the Asia Minor area repeatedly, reason that does not allow us to plunder Mesopotamia, possibly is he thinks after he captured the throne , under Mesopotamia will be he will rule the core area, therefore cannot make here people be resentful about him.” “其实吧,我们当年之所以加入雇佣军,为小居鲁士效命,也都是为了生存。”曾经是另一支雇佣军首领的希罗尼姆斯及时说话,化解了阿加西亚的尴尬:“其实就算是小居鲁士为了解决军费的紧张,也曾经允许我们多次抢掠小亚细亚地区,之所以不允许我们抢掠美索不达米亚,可能是他认为等他夺得王位之后美索不达米亚将是他统治之下的核心地区,因此不能让这里的民众对他心怀怨恨。” Alexius heaved a deep sigh: „Asia Minor is part of Persia national territory, but Cyrus the Younger, Artaxerxes has not treasured that length and breadth the land, instead regards as the alien race there people, demands everything, how the Asia Minor person can not rebel! How other Persia areas' people possibly truly are also loyal in Persia!” 阿莱克西斯长叹一声:“小亚细亚是波斯国土的一部分,但无论是小居鲁士、还是阿尔塔薛西斯都没有珍惜那一片广袤的土地,反而将那里的民众视为异族,予取予求,小亚细亚人怎能不叛乱！波斯其他地区的民众又怎么可能真正忠诚于波斯！” „We should thank Persians to do this, because just they do not regard as the person on one's own side other races, we have the opportunity to storm into this general national territory, ultimately conquers this powerful enemy!” Matonis is pointing at the first regiment soldier who crosses the river, proud saying: „These little fellows are luckier than us, we in the past were only the tools in Persians hand, what meaningless was fighting for power and profit of Room Persian king died in battle on this strange lands, but they are repeating our past routes of march, is actually fighting for them and for the kingdoms, they will create the unprecedented great victory!” “我们应该感谢波斯人这样做,正因为他们不将其他种族视为自己人,我们才有机会攻入这片广大的国土,最终战胜这个强大的敌人！”马托尼斯指着正在渡河的第一军团士兵,自豪的说道:“这些小家伙比我们幸运,我们当年只是波斯人手中的工具,毫无意义的为波斯王的争权夺利而战死在这片陌生的土地上,而他们虽然重复着我们当年的行军路线,却在为他们自己、为王国而战斗,他们将创造前所未有的伟大胜利！” „Real stick that said that Matonis.” Amintas depends on the sitting cot of carriage supinely, saying that in the feeling taunted: „In team that although you did not direct in me in the past, but I had heard you at that time, strong fierce, but the temperament crude, makes the recruit who the team officers have a headache about very much...... who not think that dozens years in the past you unexpectedly became high-ranking military officer who directs over ten thousand soldiers, moreover speaks systematic also so......” “说的真棒,马托尼斯。”阿明塔斯仰靠着马车的坐榻,感慨中略带嘲讽的说道:“虽然当年你不在我指挥的队伍中,但我那时就听说过你,一名强壮勇猛但脾气粗暴、让队官很是头疼的新兵……谁也不会想到几十年过去你居然成了指挥上万士兵的将官,而且说话还如此的有条有理……” „Sir Amintas, I had also heard you in the past.” Matonis rebuttal unrestrained/no trace of politeness: „Knows why I amn't willing hundred people of teams that in the past goes to you to direct? Because everyone said that you are a Meno mad dog, although leads the team to rush ahead frequently in the forefront, but there is no tactic, moreover each time casualties casualties big......, but will fear to follow you dead in battle the mercenary here never to think in the past for dozens years later you will become the star who a high-ranking court official and people in powerful kingdom praised.” “阿明塔斯大人,我当年也听说过你。”马托尼斯毫不客气的反唇相讥:“知道我当年为什么不愿意去你指挥的百人队吗？因为大家都称你是梅农手下的一条疯狗,虽然经常率队冲杀在最前面,但却没什么战术可言,而且每次伤亡都伤亡不小……但恐怕当年跟随你战死在这里的雇佣兵永远不会想到几十年后你会成为一个强大王国的重臣、民众口中称颂的名将。” The Matonis unkind words touched the Amintas heartstrings, he has not refuted, instead facial expression pain silent moment, then the sinking sound said: „Our these comes Persia time, not only need revenge to Persian king, scrubbing past shame, what is more important found in the past the startling bone of allies, brought back to the family/home them......” 马托尼斯刻薄的话语触动了阿明塔斯的心弦,他没有反驳,反而神情痛苦的沉默了片刻,然后沉声说道:“我们这一次来波斯,不光是要向波斯王报仇,洗刷当年的耻辱,更重要的是找到当年战友们的骇骨,将他们带回家……” This saying, the people fell into quietly, the atmosphere becomes somewhat dignified. 这话一出,众人都陷入了沉寂,气氛变得有些凝重。 Has listened attentively to the record, unable to bear for Henie Polis of biography collection material the future must write in the one side asks a low voice: „Fellow Sirs, you said so many a moment ago, can...... say that time your majesty simply? He should be a young recruit at that time, is right?” 一直在一旁倾听记录、为将来要书写的传记筹集资料的赫尼波里斯忍不住低声问道:“各位大人,你们刚才说了这么多,能不能……简单的说说那时的陛下？他那时应该还是一名年轻的新兵,对不对？” Alexius and Feely Hughes, Tolmides and the others do not seem to heard Henie Polis to speak, the start of acting in a completely informal or uninhibited manner talked to each other. 阿莱克西斯、菲利修斯、托尔米德等人仿佛没有听见赫尼波里斯说话似的,旁若无人的开始相互交谈起来。 Even if usually spoke Amintas and Epiphanes of no taboo also to fear was pestered at this moment by annoying Henie Polis, but closing one's eyes pretended to be sleeping simply. 哪怕是平时说话无禁忌的阿明塔斯、埃皮忒尼斯此刻也怕被烦人的赫尼波里斯纠缠,而干脆闭眼装睡。 In the past and Davos with is drawing Giorgris in a squad and to he extremely familiar Matonis, on the grounds of „must urge that the soldiers sped up marching”, left the crowd. 当年和戴弗斯同在一个小队、对他极为熟悉的马托尼斯更是拉着吉奥格里斯,以“要催促士兵们加快行军”为由,离开了人群。 It is not because the age, could not have recalled in the past the performance of King Davos in this place in the course of time, on the contrary their clear remembering: When the mercenaries arrive at this Euphrates river bank, at that time when young Davos was shocked, steps the bateau-bridge actually two legs by this exceptionally broad river becomes tender, almost the entire journey was supported by the arm by Matonis was arriving at the opposite shore...... 并不是因为年代日久、已经记不起当年戴弗斯国王在此地的表现,相反他俩清晰的记得:当雇佣军来到这幼发拉底河畔,当时年轻的戴弗斯被这条异常宽阔的大河所震撼,踏上浮桥时竟然两腿发软,几乎全程都是由马托尼斯搀扶着走到了对岸…… If their truthfully Davos these dirty business will say in the past, will have the big impact on today's Kingdom People?! Let alone, 30 years later today they visit familiar place, review the past events, in the hearts is sigh with emotion: Compared these dead in battle in the companion of this place, they were what kind of luck! Under not only in besieging and pursuing of Persia army blocked off escapes lived the day, but can also kill in the lifetime, the invincible powerful enemy will once step on the under foot, washed off the shame! All these are that person who because the front stands and waits for a long time, will be impossible under his leadership becomes possible, created the unprecedented miracle! 如果他们如实的将当年戴弗斯的这些糗事说出来,会对今日的王国民众造成多大的冲击？！更何况,30年后的今天他们旧地重游,回顾往事,心中更是感慨:相比较那些战死在此地的同伴,他们是何等的幸运！不但在波斯军队的围追堵截下逃出了生天,而且还能在有生之年重新杀回来,将曾经不可战胜的强敌踩在脚下,洗刷耻辱！这一切都是因为前方伫立的那个人,正是在他的带领下才将不可能变为可能,创造了前所未有的奇迹！ In this moment, the gratitude and respect to Davos were full of the feelings. 在这一刻,他们对戴弗斯的感激与崇敬充满了胸臆。 Also has not known how long, Davos turned head, high-spirited saying: „Brothers, we should cross river!” 也不知过了多久,戴弗斯回过头来,意气风发的说道:“兄弟们,我们该过河了！” People's loud response with one voice: „Compliant, your majesty!” 众人异口同声的大声回应:“遵命,陛下！” ........................................................................ ……………………………………………………………… Davos crossed Euphrates river, discovered the situation, just like the mounted scout said: The golden field was fired black, and has become the ruins village everywhere obviously, biggest ruins are Bertha Cousse city, not only the house in city was burnt down, even the city wall was also all destroyed, causes to save to build the difficult regiment soldiers in camp, gives scolding indignantly all timidly Persians like the mouse. 戴弗斯渡过幼发拉底河,发现情况正如侦骑所说:原本金黄色的田野被烧成了一片黑色,并且处处可见已经成为废墟的村庄,其中最大的一处废墟就是塔波萨库斯城,不但城内的住宅被烧毁,连城墙也全被破坏,使得原本想省却筑营的劳苦的军团士兵们气愤不已,无不痛骂波斯人胆怯如鼠。 Although environment all around becomes a little bad, but Davos issues the order as before: The army builds the camp near Bertha Cousse city. 尽管周遭的环境变得有点恶劣,但戴弗斯依旧下达命令:全军就在塔波萨库斯城附近修筑营地。
