When the soldiers want to break through the barrier of street, Tia resident can actually throw the stone and javelin in the high level of house downward, even boils the heat of hydration oil, this creates massive killing to the Syracuse soldier. 当锡拉库扎士兵杀进城内,他们赫然发现摩提亚居民不但没有投降的打算,而且顽强的守卫着每一条街道、每一栋房屋。当士兵们想要攻破街道的壁垒时,摩提亚居民却可以在住宅的高层往下投掷石块、标枪、甚至是沸水和热油,这对锡拉库扎士兵造成大量的杀伤。 Dionysius has to suspend the offensive, convenes the innumerable engineers, the expenditure time starts to build with Tia House same high attacking a city tower, after it has six story-high, under to have fully the wheel, build huge...... and other preparations are appropriate, the Syracuse person again launches the attack. 狄奥尼修斯不得不暂停攻势,招集无数工程师们,花费时间开始搭建与摩提亚住宅同等高度的攻城塔,它足有六层高、下有车轮、体型巨大……等一切准备妥当之后,锡拉库扎人再次发动进攻。 Ten attacking a city towers were promoted by large quantities of labor forces, from the east , south , west and north outside city along expanded the city wall gap and path, enters in Tia city, slowly close to houses, puts down to withstand/top the termination bridge, makes contact with the roof in house, the Syracuse soldiers in the wooden ladder through tower, arrives at the exit|to speak, attempts through meeting the bridge storms into the house. Tia resident throws to the attacking a city tower burns the wood and asphalt, and prevents the enemy to enter at risk of life. 十座攻城塔被大批劳力推动,从城市外的东、西、南、北四面沿着被拓宽的城墙缺口和道路,进入摩提亚城内,慢慢靠近一栋栋住宅,放下顶端接桥,搭上住宅的楼顶,锡拉库扎士兵们通过塔内的木梯,到达出口,企图通过接桥攻入住宅内。摩提亚居民则向攻城塔投掷燃木和沥青,并拼死阻挡敌人杀入。 Therefore, in Tia siege warfare the most unusual scene happened: both sides battle in the midair, the stump residual limb and blood keep from in the air sprinkling, has the soldier and resident whole body bath fire, falls from more than ten meters high floor, scream is unceasing, a ground corpse on the ground piece...... 于是,摩提亚攻城战中最奇特的景象发生了:双方都在半空中作战,残肢和鲜血不停从空中洒落,更有士兵和居民满身浴火,从十几米高的楼层上摔下,惨叫声不断,地上伏尸一片…… As a result of the combat at risk of life Tia resident, the attack progress of Syracuse is small, the fight falls into the rubber...... 由于摩提亚居民的拼死作战,锡拉库扎的攻击进展甚微,战斗陷入胶着…… ..................... ………………… Has no interest in pay attention in Sparta new king Agesilaus and elders present at the Asia Minor war, because one threatened conspiring that they ruled to be exposed. 在斯巴达新国王阿格西劳斯及长老们现在无心关注在小亚细亚的战事,因为一场威胁到他们统治的密谋被揭发了。 Kina, the original Sparta citizen, actually because of being incapable to pay the Duke meal again the expense, but no longer enjoys the privilege of Sparta citizen, was reduced to the second-rate person. From the beginning he is the envy and hate, wants to retaliate the Sparta aristocrat, but after long-term observation and unceasing with Sparta territory in other by the ruling circles contact, he was increasingly realized the Helots inhuman slaughter and oppression of Sparta system to is what kind of in fearful, to similarly and shields a native of Axi for this city contribution the second-rate person of sweat and blood how unfair, therefore he decided that must overthrow the Sparta aristocrat's rule. 基那敦,原斯巴达公民,却因无力再支付公餐的费用,而不再享有斯巴达公民的特权,被降为次等人。一开始他只是出于忌恨,想要报复斯巴达的贵族,但在经过长期的观察和不断的与斯巴达领地内的其他被统治阶层接触中,他逐渐意识到斯巴达制度对黑劳士毫无人性的屠杀和压迫是何等的可怕、对同样为这座城市贡献汗水和鲜血的次等人和庇里阿西人又是何其的不公,于是他决定要推翻斯巴达贵族的统治。 But during this period, as the frequency of war sends, in the Sparta citizen, shields a native of Axi, even Helots unceasingly requisition battles, domestic land because of lacking labor force, but is gradually desolated, however the city-state tax burden is actually aggravating, person's who dissatisfaction over the Sparta causes each class rapidly is increasing, therefore in Kina uses under various opportunity secret contacts and propagandas, in the Sparta territory a large crowd is joined his organization by the drive that he advocates, even frustration including Sparta citizen. 而在这一时期,随着战争的频发,斯巴达公民、庇里阿西人、甚至黑劳士不断被征调作战,国内土地因缺乏劳力而逐渐荒芜,但是城邦的税负却在加重,使得各个阶层的人对斯巴达的不满在急剧增加,因此在基那敦利用各种机会秘密联络和宣传之下,斯巴达领地内大批的人受他主张的激励而加入他的组织,甚至包括斯巴达公民中的失意者。 With the lapse of time, this population of rebelling against the organization constantly increases, in they already prepares to take certain actions, has the participant because of stemming from the fear, but informs to the elder powwow. 随着时间的推移,这个反叛组织的人数日益增多,就在他们已经准备要采取某些行动时,却有参与者因为出于害怕,而向长老议事会告密。 The kings, elders and supervisory officers obtain the news, has a big shock. Because the situation is urgent, they held an informal meeting in a hurry, the decision sends Kina to lead some young people to go to the town execution of suburb „elimination action”, so-called „elimination action” is the Sparta government was worried that the Helots overpopulation, threatens the Sparta person's rule every year of formulation to kill some public legitimate official actions of Helots regularly, not only can make Helots keep firmly in mind frequently Sparta terrifying, but can also exercise the young Sparta citizen bloodthirsty the desire. 国王、长老和监察官们得到消息,大惊失色。因为情况紧急,他们匆匆开了一个非正式会议,就决定派遣基那敦带领一些年轻人去郊外的城镇执行“清除行动”,所谓“清除行动”就是斯巴达政府担心黑劳士人口过多、威胁到斯巴达人的统治而制定的每年定期杀死部分黑劳士的公开合法的官方行动,不但可以让黑劳士们时刻牢记斯巴达的恐怖,而且可以锻炼年轻的斯巴达公民嗜血的欲望。 Kina receives the order not to suspect, instead is happy, is not because has the right of any Helots can slaughter at will meets to be excited, but is he thought that had this to be able freely the right that went out to loaf, can seize the chance to contact the organization exactly, to start the riot. 基那敦接到命令没有怀疑,反而感到高兴,并不是因为拥有了随意可以杀戮遇到的任何一个黑劳士的权利而兴奋,而是他觉得拥有了这个可以自由外出游荡的权利,恰好可以趁机联络组织、发动暴乱。 However he thinks extremely simply, lacks vigilantly, finally shortly after goes out of town, namely was arrested by the ambush good Sparta soldier early secretly, escorts back under guard the prison cell. All the year round exploits to oppress the Sparta people of Helots to torture is very experienced, after torturing, by suffered Kina revealed some important chieftains of this organization finally. 但是他想得太过简单,又缺乏警惕,结果出城后不久,即被早埋伏好的斯巴达战士秘密逮捕,押回牢房。长年剥削压迫黑劳士的斯巴达人对刑讯逼供是很有经验的,经过严刑拷打,备受折磨的基那敦终于吐露了这个组织的一些重要的头目。 The public prosecutors while that the entire city hunts down the rebel, but also sends under escort cut and bruised Kina to circle the city to expose to the public, simultaneously to waiting and seeing the people declared: Kina is a despicable rebel, he presumptuously thinks to stir up Helots, starts the riot, overthrows the Sparta person's rule, plunders the wealth of Sparta person, oneself are the king. 检察官们在全城搜捕反叛者的同时,还押解着遍体鳞伤的基那敦绕城示众,同时向观望的民众宣称:基那敦是一个卑鄙的叛徒,他妄想煽动黑劳士,发动暴乱,推翻斯巴达人的统治,抢夺斯巴达人的财富,自己当国王。 Kina simply does not have the opportunity to argue, so long as he just opened mouth, the Sparta soldier brushes his body with the leather whip, with gripping the wooden stick of projecting edge is attacking fiercely his mouth. Kina whole body is bathed in blood, in vision that in the people angry and despise, staggering has not walked the entire journey, twitches to fall to the ground dead. 基那敦根本没有机会辩解,只要他刚一张嘴,斯巴达战士就用皮鞭抽打他的身体,用扎着铁刺的木棒猛击他的嘴。基那敦全身浴血,在民众愤怒和鄙夷的目光中,踉踉跄跄的没有走完全程,就抽搐倒地而死。 Sparta government successful eliminated Kina, to tarnish his reputation, to let from the physical body not understand the Sparta people that truth hated these rebels. However participates in the population of conspiring being too many, the event has not arrived at the conclusion the situation, two kings, elders and supervisory officers have been busy stabilizing the domestic situation in later time. 斯巴达政府成功的从肉体上消灭了基那敦、败坏了他的名声、让不了解实情的斯巴达民众痛恨这些反叛者。但是参与密谋的人数太多,事件远未到结束的地步,两位国王、长老和监察官们在随后的时间里一直忙着稳定国内的局势。 ........................... ……………………… The Theonia football competition continued for more than ten days, splendid competition and intense resistance not only lets the Theonia people and union distinguished guests is crazy, outside nation merchants who come the Thurii trade were also attracted in abundance.
