On the conference site falls into suddenly coldly and still, the elders know that guarantees Sonne Lancet and Laishan virtue relations are very stiff. 会场上突然陷入冷寂,长老们都知道保桑尼阿斯和莱山德关系很僵。 Elder Diao Pettis coughs two, asked: „The hasn't Tua Alliance that in report said that how I heard?” 长老狄奥佩提斯咳嗽两声,问道:“报告中所说的这位图阿联盟,我怎么没有听说过？” „It is a recently established alliance, the full name calls Thurii Amendolara alliance!” Showing of Laishan virtue makes these rarely pay attention to the western Mediterranean elders to be bewildered, but Laishan virtue underwent an investigation obviously, he also reminded: „Everyone still remembers for a year ago does the Thurii envoy come the Sparta request aid the matter?” “它是新成立的一个联盟,全名叫图里伊-阿门多拉腊联盟！”莱山德的说明让这些很少关注西地中海的长老们还是一脸茫然,而莱山德显然是经过了一番调查,他又提醒道:“大家还记得一年前图里伊使者来斯巴达请求援助的事吗？” „Un...... remembers, at that time we rejected his request.” Elder Lyssy Pusi nods saying: „But we gave Thurii to recruit the right of mercenaries in eastern Mediterranean Greek city-state. Once supported Athens regarding one, city-state that dispatches troops to enter the war, if did not see that it was invaded by the aborigines, stemming from is morality and justice of Greek compatriot, we showed generous and benevolence of Sparta, otherwise......” “嗯……记得,当时我们拒绝了他的要求。”长老吕西浦斯点头说道:“但我们给予了图里伊在东地中海的希腊城邦招募雇佣军的权利。对于一个曾经支持雅典、还派兵参战的城邦,如果不是看到它被土著人侵略,出于同是希腊同胞的道义,我们展现了斯巴达的慷慨和仁慈,否则……” „Said right!” Other elders echo to say. “说的没错！”其他长老们附和道。 „This Thurii envoy who obtains our elder powwow to permit, arrives at Byzantium, recruited just few people who in these mercenaries expedite from Persia, but these mercenaries helped Thurii beat the aborigines, and recaptured by Amendolara that the aborigines seized, finally these mercenaries become the Amendolara citizen, their leaders called...... to call...... Davos, even became Amendolara lifelong archon .” Laishan virtue, Agesilaus shouted one at this point with amazement: „Guest Lysippos had once said to me, ‚he in expediting Persia the mercenaries discovered a military genius called Davos, once wants to make this Davos the Sparta distinguished guest to the elder powwow application, apportioned his land, making him settle down in Brother Narnia, used for our Sparta.’ What he said is this person?!” “正是这位得到了我们长老议事会许可的图里伊使者,到达拜占庭,招募了刚从波斯远征回来的那些雇佣兵中的一部分人,而正是这些雇佣兵帮助图里伊击败了土著人,并且夺回了被土著人占领的阿门多拉腊,最终这些雇佣兵们成为了阿门多拉腊的公民,他们的首领叫……叫……戴弗斯,甚至当上了阿门多拉腊的终身执政官。”莱山德说到这里,阿格西劳斯惊讶的喊了一声:“客里索普斯曾对我说过,‘他在远征波斯时的雇佣军中发现了一个军事天才叫戴弗斯,曾想向长老议事会申请让这个戴弗斯成为斯巴达的贵宾,分给他土地,让他定居在拉哥尼亚,为我们斯巴达所用。’他说的是不是这个人？！” „Military genius?!” Elder Diao Pettis scoffs to say with a smile: „Before our Sparta person said that what military genius, is very laughable!” “军事天才？！”长老狄奥佩提斯嗤笑道:“在我们斯巴达人面前说什么军事天才,岂不是很可笑！” „Our Sparta people know that in the fight does not have the talent, only then and uninterrupted difficult training and unceasing fight from infancy to maturity obtain the rich experience, to enough age, each Sparta citizen can become the outstanding commander!” Elder Lyssy Pusi proud saying. “我们斯巴达人都知道战斗中没有天才,只有从小到大、不间断的艰苦训练以及不断的战斗中得到丰富的经验,到了足够的年龄,每一个斯巴达公民都能成为优秀的指挥官！”长老吕西浦斯骄傲的说道。 „Right that you said!” 45-year-old Agesilaus humble saying. “你们说的对！”45岁的阿格西劳斯谦逊的说道。 Laishan virtue looked at him , to continue saying: „Soon, we know that Crotone seized Thurii, and burnt down that city, but was this Davos leads the Amendolara person night assault army that prepared to return to Crotone, and captured them, later Thurii and Amendolara established the alliance, still held the post of lifelong archon by Davos......” 莱山德看了看他,继续说道:“不久之后,我们都知道克罗托内占领了图里伊,并且焚毁了那座城市,而就是这个戴弗斯带领阿门多拉腊人夜袭了准备返回克罗托内的军队,并且俘虏了他们,之后图里伊与阿门多拉腊成立联盟,仍由戴弗斯担任终身执政官……” „Originally Crotone defeated by these mercenaries, this Davos looks like some abilities.” An elder exclaims. “原来克罗托内就是被这些雇佣兵打败的,这个戴弗斯看来还是有一些能力嘛。”一名长老惊叹道。 „Lifelong archon of two cities! Perhaps this Davos ambition is big, wants the same as be called the Magna Graecia overstepping authority lord with Dionysius!” Lyssy Poos reminded the people. “两座城市的终身执政官！恐怕这个戴弗斯野心不小,想同狄奥尼修斯一样称为大希腊的僭主！”吕西普斯提醒众人。 „Matter is very obvious, these settled down in mercenary wish that let fight in Magna Graecia together the mercenary companion to help them to Magna Graecia, therefore sent people Ephesus to instigate these mercenaries to escape!” Diao Pettis said loudly. “事情已经很明显了,正是这些在大希腊定居下来的雇佣兵想要让曾经一起战斗过的雇佣兵同伴到大希腊帮助他们,所以才派人到以弗所煽动那些雇佣兵逃跑！”狄奥佩提斯大声说道。 „In the report of guest Lysippos had not said that discovered some people disturb in secret, perhaps is only because these mercenaries heard the news that spreads from Magna Graecia.” Another elder hopes that the people do not think too seriously the matter. “客里索普斯的报告中并没有说发现有人暗中捣乱,或许只是因为这些雇佣兵听到了从大希腊传来的消息。”另一名长老希望众人不要把事情想得太严重。 ” That why our hasn't Sparta heard these news? This obviously is the person with high aspirations behavior! ” Diao Pettis refuted. ”那为什么我们斯巴达没有听到这些消息？这明显是有心人所为！”狄奥佩提斯反驳道。 Several people are arguing, although Laishan and Diao Pettis also cope, but he said at this time: „So long as these two matters have the relation, our Sparta person said that is Tua Alliance behavior, that is its behavior!” 几个人争论着,虽然莱山德与狄奥佩提斯也太对付,但此时他却说道:“只要这两件事存在联系,我们斯巴达人说是图阿联盟所为,那就是它所为！” „Said right! This is the way of our Sparta person!” The strong view of Laishan virtue was recognized elders headed by Lyssy Pusi, guarantees Sonne Lancet unstated criticism: Laishan virtue that the counter- tradition is always famous felt all right saying that unexpectedly must carry out the Sparta tradition! But he remained silent, without opposition. “说得对！这才是我们斯巴达人的方式！”莱山德的强硬看法得到了以吕西浦斯为首的长老们的认同,保桑尼阿斯内心腹诽:一向反传统著称的莱山德居然好意思说要执行斯巴达的传统！但他保持了沉默,没有反对。 The argument ended, the chief criminal found, how to punish Tua Alliance, the view of people is almost consistent: Sends people to condemn Tua Alliance, asking for him to compensate for the damage of Sparta, and makes its back escape to the mercenary of Tua Alliance! 争论结束,罪魁祸首找到,如何惩罚图阿联盟,众人的看法几乎是一致的:派人去谴责图阿联盟,要求其赔偿斯巴达的损失,并让其送回逃到图阿联盟的雇佣兵！ Laishan virtue also added one: „Since Davos of Tua Alliance is good at directing the combat, that lets the army that he commands troops to join Deji Rieda, goes to and Persians combat!” 莱山德还加了一条:“既然图阿联盟的戴弗斯擅长指挥作战,那就让他率兵加入德基里达斯的部队,去和波斯人作战！” „Agreement! Considers them to destroy our Sparta person in the penalty of Asia Minor combat!” Diao Pettis and several elders approved. “同意！就当是他们破坏我们斯巴达人在小亚细亚作战的惩罚！”狄奥佩提斯和几个长老表示认可。 The elders talked, is determining the destiny of Tua Alliance. 众长老你一言我一语,决定着图阿联盟的命运。 At this time, Agesilaus asked: „What to do if Tua Alliance does reject our requests?” 这时,阿格西劳斯问道:“万一图阿联盟拒绝我们的要求怎么办？” „They dare! That means with the Sparta war!” Diao Pettis finishes speaking, does not feel right. “他们敢！那意味着和斯巴达的战争！”狄奥佩提斯话音刚落,就感到不对。 insurance Sonne Lancet said immediately: „We must cope with Persians, as well as to guard the Peloponnese peninsula, prepares to attack these like loving Lees at any time to our Sparta discontented city-state, perhaps does not have the ample force to dispatch troops to attack Greece again.” 保桑尼阿斯立即接话道:“我们现在既要对付波斯人,又要镇守伯罗奔尼撒半岛,随时准备打击那些像爱利斯一样对我们斯巴达不满的城邦,恐怕没有余力再派兵去打希腊。” „Right! Until now Magna Graecia and our Sparta relate well, we also never dispatch troops to Magna Graecia, if causes there city-state to our disaffection, gain does not equal the loss!” Another elder also said. “对呀！一直以来大希腊和我们斯巴达关系不错,我们还从未派兵去过大希腊,万一引起那里的城邦对我们的不满,得不偿失！”另一位长老也说道。 „Can we tolerate Tua Alliance to trample the Sparta dignity?!” Diao Pettis's indignant shouting loudly. “难道我们就能容忍图阿联盟践踏斯巴达的威严？！”狄奥佩提斯气愤的高喊。 „Everyone does not need to worry, we have not known Tua Alliance's response regarding this. Even encounters their rejections, we are unable to dispatch troops, does not have Syracuse!” Laishan virtue smiles was saying. His words reminded the elders, Sparta supports Syracuse, even disregards Dionysius is oversteps authority the main fact, does not hope has not touched the place that in west Mediterranean this Sparta influence, can friendly, and can stabilize there situation with Sparta according to the Sparta wish conduct strong nation, therefore the elders no longer intertwine in this issue, starts to discuss that goes abroad on a diplomatic mission the candidate of Tua Alliance. “大家不用着急,我们还不知道图阿联盟对此的反应。就算遭到他们的拒绝,我们无法派兵,不是还有锡拉库扎吗！”莱山德微笑着说道。他的话点醒了长老们,斯巴达扶持锡拉库扎,甚至无视狄奥尼修斯是个僭主的事实,不就是希望在西地中海这个斯巴达势力尚未触及的地方,有一个能与斯巴达友好、并能按斯巴达意愿行事的强邦稳定那里的局势,因此长老们不再纠结于这个问题,开始商讨出使图阿联盟的人选。 „Makes me go.” Agesilaus offers to volunteer saying that he in that Davos a little interest in guest Lysippos mouth. “让我去吧。”阿格西劳斯自荐道,他对客里索普斯口中的那个戴弗斯有点兴趣。 „Do not go, in order to avoid Tua Alliance despises our Sparta!” Diao Pettis this saying, other elders feel somewhat excessive, obviously this is Diao Pettis is satirizing Agesilaus is lames. “你就不要去了,以免图阿联盟轻看我们斯巴达！”狄奥佩提斯这话一出,其他长老都觉得有些过分,显然这是狄奥佩提斯在讽刺阿格西劳斯是个跛脚。 Facing such shame, Agesilaus can also stay quiet unexpectedly, it seems like for dozens years face the vision that others are despising, his mind exercised great strength extremely, his facial expression is invariable, but also wants to say anything again. 面对这样的羞辱,阿格西劳斯居然还能保持平静,看来几十年来都面对着别人鄙夷的目光,他的心灵已经被锻炼的极其强大,他神情不变,还想再说点什么。 At this time, Laishan virtue said: „Tua Alliance, a remote small city-state alliance, is not worth the Greek overlord Sparta noble royal family going abroad on a diplomatic mission!” 这时,莱山德说道:“图阿联盟,一个偏僻的小城邦联盟,不值得希腊霸主斯巴达高贵的王族出使！” The words of Laishan virtue redeemed the Agesilaus dignity, stopped up him to go abroad on a diplomatic mission the path of Tua Alliance. 莱山德的话挽回了阿格西劳斯的尊严,也堵住了他出使图阿联盟的通路。 „I proposed that holds the post of the envoy by Pharacidas.” Laishan virtue then said. “我提议由菲比达斯担任使者。”莱山德接着说道。 Then, had the elder to be startled to call out: „Pharacidas?! That is the fellow who the short temper and love independently decide!” 说完,就有长老惊叫道:“菲比达斯？！那可是个脾气暴躁、爱自作主张的家伙！” „We need a tyrannical envoy to force Tua Alliance concessions!” Laishan virtue tone firm saying. “我们就需要一个强横的使者才能逼迫图阿联盟让步！”莱山德语气坚决的说道。 After the discussion, the determination goes abroad on a diplomatic mission finally Tua Alliance by Pharacidas. 经过讨论,最后确定由菲比达斯出使图阿联盟。 After the conference ended, Laishan virtue stopped by calling out Agesilaus that is just about to leave: „You will not be complaining that I don't make you go to Tua Alliance?” 会议结束后,莱山德叫住了正要离开的阿格西劳斯:“你不会还在埋怨我不让你去图阿联盟吧？” Agesilaus shakes the head, he in the joint this has wanted to be clear about, smiles was saying: „I think that you are good for me, because of Agirtas?” 阿格西劳斯摇摇头,他已经将此中关节想清楚了,微笑着说道:“我想您是为了我好,因为阿基斯吗？” Laishan virtue satisfied holds in the arms his shoulder, said in a low voice: „Agirtas could not support for several days, you left at this time, to make that illegitimate child Leotychides profit...... you to feel relieved that I have stood you......” 莱山德满意的搂住他的肩膀,低声说道:“阿基斯挺不了几天了,你这时离开,岂不是让那个私生子列奥提齐德斯占了便宜……你放心吧,我是一直站在你这边的……” Agesilaus immediately serious expressed gratitude to Laishan virtue. 阿格西劳斯当即郑重的向莱山德表示了感谢。 Laishan virtue smiled, he likes Agesilaus this steady humble character, moreover respects about oneself in a friendly way, is easy to control...... 莱山德笑了,他就喜欢阿格西劳斯这种稳重谦逊的性格,而且对自己友好尊重,易于掌控…… Laishan virtue had not seen, guarantees Sonne Lancet to look at him and Agesilaus in him behind vigilantly in intimate chatting. 莱山德没有看到,在他身后保桑尼阿斯警惕的看着他和阿格西劳斯在亲热的谈笑。 insurance Sonne Lancet called Diao Pettis in a soft voice, said in a soft voice: „Takes a look, our ‚reformer’ recently to the communication of Agesilaus was quite close!” 保桑尼阿斯轻声叫来狄奥佩提斯,轻声说道:“瞧瞧,我们的‘改革者’最近对阿格西劳斯的来往可是相当密切！” Diao Pettis looks at front one indifferently, then turns around seriously said to insurance Sonne Lancet: „Although Leotychides succeeds to the throne is without a doubt, but the rumor rose from all directions recently, to guarantee him can replace Agirtas smoothly, I must ask you to provide the help!” 狄奥佩提斯冷眼看着前面的一幕,然后转身郑重的对保桑尼阿斯说道:“虽然列奥提齐德斯继承王位是毋庸置疑,但最近谣言四起,为了保证他能顺利接替阿基斯,我还得请你提供帮助！” „Are you let the name of my by king to Delphi seeking oracle?” insurance Sonne Lancet understands immediately Diao Pettis's request is anything. Because the Sparta double king said since the ancient times is the close descendant of Titan Hercules, they have other Sparta person no privileges , can only by them to Delphi sanctum seeking oracle, therefore had the sacred oracle right to interpret. “你是让我以国王的名义向德尔菲求取神谕？”保桑尼阿斯立刻明白狄奥佩提斯的请求是什么。因为斯巴达的双王自古以来自称是赫拉克勒斯的至亲后裔,他们有一个其他斯巴达人没有的特权,只能由他们向德尔菲圣所求取神谕,因此就掌握了神圣的神谕解释权。 „Yes!” Diao Pettis hopes visits him. “是的！”狄奥佩提斯期盼的看着他。 „I will send for Delphi!” insurance Sonne Lancet nods to accept very much simply: „I will not make that fellow reach our royal families his ambition!” “我会派人去德尔菲！”保桑尼阿斯很干脆的点头应承:“我绝不会让那个家伙把他的野心伸向我们王族！” ........................... ……………………… The time had arrived in November, if the ancient customs time several hundred years ago, this is not a good season of navigation, but with the progress of navigational technology, by today even in winter multi- violent storm Mediterranean, main trade route still very lively. 时间已经到了十一月,如果是在几百年前的古风时代,这并不是一个航海的好时节,但是随着航海技术的进步,到了今天即使是在冬季多狂风暴雨的地中海,主要的贸易航道仍然十分的热闹。 The merchant ship that Timasion, Xanticles and Kerry Hanno and the others took arrived at Magna Graecia Taranto bay finally. 提马宋、赞提帕里斯、克里安诺等人乘坐的商船终于到达了大希腊的塔兰托海湾。 „Front is Thurii, our city-state!” Agasias is pointing at the front partly visible green coastline, exciting saying. “前面就是图里伊,我们的城邦！”阿加西亚指着前方若隐若现的绿色海岸线,兴奋的说道。 The people depend to arrive at the broad side to look into the distance forward. 众人都靠到船舷边向前眺望。
