But what Matonis cares is other issue, he raised the head looked at a while of gazing westwards, the worried look said: „The Taranto army is so long the set to come out! Perhaps I also saw in the Taranto soldier to have many people just to grow up, such army can have big battle efficiency!” 而马托尼斯关心的是另外的问题,他翘首西望的看了一会儿,愁眉说道:“塔兰图姆的军队这麽久才集合出来！我还看到塔兰图姆士兵中有不少人恐怕才刚刚成年,这样的军队能有多大的战斗力！” „Do not have the expectation to them, when the time comes must depend on us. On these fragile Taranto people the battlefield must do only, after is we routed the enemies, for our battlefield cleanup, tidies up the spoils of war.” Saying that Olivos despises. “对他们就不要抱有期望,到时候还得靠我们自己。这些娇气的塔兰图姆人上战场唯一要做的,就是等我们击溃敌人后,替我们打扫战场,收拾战利品。”奥利弗斯鄙夷的说道。 „Olivos, do not have a low opinion of the enemy! Sir Davos has said that Messapians not only the combat is fierce, but also the individuality is tenacious, is not good to cope, we must attaching great importance, probably unite the Taranto person highly, going all-out to beat them!” Giorgris reminded him to say. “奥利弗斯,你不要太轻敌了！戴弗斯大人说过,梅萨皮人不但作战勇猛,而且个性坚韧,不好对付,我们必须高度重视,必须团结塔兰图姆人,尽全力才能击败他们！”吉奥格里斯提醒他说。 Giorgris is the chief of third regiment, but according to the new regiment establishment stipulated: First and second regiments the team officers or the soldiers , are prepared the citizen by Thurii and Amendolara citizen as far as possible and live in this's freeman hold the post ; The third regiment is comprised of Grumentum and Nerulum people ; The fourth regiment is constituted by Krimisa and Aprustum people. Does this mainly, trains, mobilizes and go to battle for the military management, raises the operational efficiency, naturally is also easy to cause various regiment sticking together and emergence of place mountain stronghold mentality, but Davos considered: Outweighs the shortcoming at least in the alliance initial present or the advantage, but the above flaw can through increasing the fluidity of team officer in the future solves. Giorgris also lives in Amendolara, has not moved to elsewhere, therefore indiscriminately allocates the first regiment from the third regiment, becomes the chief. 吉奥格里斯本是第三军团的大队长,但根据新的军团编制规定:第一、二军团无论是队官还是士兵,尽量由图里伊、阿门多拉腊公民、预备公民和居住于此的自由民担任;第三军团是由格鲁门图姆、尼乌图姆的民众组成;第四军团则由克里米萨、阿斯普鲁斯图姆民众构成。这样做主要是为了方便军队管理、训练、动员、出征,提高作战效率,当然也容易导致各军团抱团、地方山头主义的出现,但戴弗斯考虑:至少在联盟初期的现在还是利大于弊,而上述的缺陷将来可以通过增加队官的流动性来解决。吉奥格里斯还居住在阿门多拉腊,没有迁居别处,故而从第三军团平调到第一军团,还是出任大队长。 Olivos always bullied Giorgris to be used, was not convinced also wants to refute, Alexius said: „Giorgris said right, this time war and past were different, related to coordinated to battle with other city-state, particularly Taranto, we not only need attach great importance, but must deal with and relations of Taranto army carefully. Otherwise at the critical moment of fight, the ally does not support us full power, on us who the misfortune can arrive. Must know that Thurii separated a bay from here, when the time comes we want to go back to be possible difficult......” 奥利弗斯一向欺负吉奥格里斯惯了,不服气的还想反驳,阿莱克西斯说道:“吉奥格里斯说的没错,这次的战争与以往不同,涉及到与别的城邦配合作战,尤其是塔兰图姆,我们不但要非常重视,而且要小心处理好与塔兰托姆军队的关系。否则在战斗的关键时刻,盟友不全力支援我们,厄运就会降临的我们头上。要知道图里伊距离这里可是隔了一个海湾,到时候我们想回去可就困难了……” Alexius is the veteran chief, Olivos does not say anything, but other chiefs approve the Alexius words. 阿莱克西斯是老资格的大队长,奥利弗斯也不好说什么,而其他大队长们都认同阿莱克西斯的话。 Amintas makes an effort to pat the shoulder of Olivos, said loudly: „To be honest, I do not like these to the woman same Taranto person! But to win, we can only endure temporarily, when we defeat Messapians, I poured want to take a look at the Taranto person to us saying that the sound thanked!” 阿明塔斯使劲拍着奥利弗斯的肩膀,大声说道:“说实话,我也不喜欢这些向女人一样的塔兰图姆人！可是为了胜利,我们暂时只能忍着,等我们打败梅萨皮人,我倒很想看看塔兰图姆人会不会对我们说声谢谢！” Then, he laughs, Olivos also smiled. 说完,他哈哈大笑,奥利弗斯也笑了。 „Good, everyone hurries to return to own brigade to go, the Taranto army also came out, we should also set out in orderly formation!” First legatus Kapus reminded everyone. “好啦,大家赶紧回到自己的大队去,塔兰图姆的军队也出来了,我们也该整队出发了！”第一军团长卡普斯提醒大家。 The huge seeing-off group has shortly after the city gate, in which women are hesitating whether must continue, because sits and lying on the front ground the dense and numerous Theonia soldiers, they chatted loudly, was saying uncouthly words, many people also revealed the upper body, making the conservative Taranto women feel shy. 庞大的送行队伍出城门不久,其中的妇女们就犹豫着是否还要继续前行,因为在前方的地上坐着、卧着密密麻麻的戴奥尼亚士兵,他们大声谈笑,说着粗鲁的话,不少人还袒露上身,让保守的塔兰图姆妇女们感到羞涩。 The Taranto soldiers therefore somewhat were also discontented, direct in rest Theonian, the mouth are speaking some cynical remark. 塔兰图姆士兵们也因此有些不满,指点着在休息的戴奥尼亚人,嘴里说些怪话。 „Really is the uncouthly country bumpkin!” Diaomilas had not seen with own eyes when the Theonia army just arrived at the appearance, sees this situation now, expressed own disaffection: „Davos where? Let his hurrying gather his army!” Diaomilas the word „army” will nip the sound to be very heavy, shows his disdaining. “果然是粗鲁的乡巴佬！”戴奥密拉斯并未亲眼见到戴奥尼亚军队刚到来时的样子,现在见此情形,也表达了自己的不满:“戴弗斯在哪儿？让他赶紧集合他的军队！”戴奥密拉斯将“军队”一词咬音很重,以示他的不屑。 „Should there.” Umakas is pointing in the front more than ten raising up flags biggest and most dazzling, saying of guess. “应该在那里吧。”攸马卡斯指着前方十多根竖起的旗帜中最大、最耀眼的一根,猜测的说道。 „Gaudiness of very colors actually manufacture!” Diaomilas snort/hum, followed Umakas to ride a horse to hurry. “军旗倒是制作的很花哨！”戴奥密拉斯哼了一声,跟随着攸马卡斯骑马赶去。 Davos same took off the armor with the surroundings person, inside only put on a flax inside lining, very optional sitting in the muddy land, is saying anything with the soldiers. 戴弗斯和周围人一样脱掉了盔甲,里面只穿了一件亚麻内衬,很随意的坐在泥地上,和士兵们说着什么。 Guard team leader Martius first sees Taranto archon that caught up with, whispered several in the Davos ear, Davos then at a moderate pace turning around. 护卫队长马尔提乌斯首先看到了赶来的塔兰图姆执政官,在戴弗斯耳边低语几声,戴弗斯这才不紧不慢的转过身来。 „Sir Davos, we when?” Umakas snatches before Diaomilas, asked. “戴弗斯大人,我们什么时候出发？”攸马卡斯抢在戴奥米拉斯之前,问道。 Davos shot a look at complexion unhesitating Diaomilas, light saying: „Should embark, the soldiers stayed for one hour under Sun, was seasoned quickly.” 戴弗斯瞥了一眼面色不豫的戴奥米拉斯,淡淡的说道:“是该出发了,士兵们在太阳下呆了一个多小时,都快被晒干了。” The Diaomilas hear this is Davos in the vague criticism Taranto army action slow causes the Theonia soldier so sloppy real reason, he does not control self coughs several. 戴奥密拉斯听出这是戴弗斯在隐晦的批评正是塔兰图姆军队行动的缓慢才导致戴奥尼亚士兵如此散漫的真正原因,他不自禁的干咳几声。 „Sounding the bugle set!” Davos no longer pesters this issue, issues the order decisively. “吹号集合！”戴弗斯不再纠缠这个问题,果断下达命令。 The bugle sound resounds, by soldiers of various posture rests immediately quick-moving goes into action, mutual help clothing armor ; But the team of officers at all levels start to call the soldier of subordinate to return to the unit, flag also in brandishing the hand the flags, shouted loudly the team name, marked the position for the soldiers. 军号声一响起,以各种姿势休息的士兵们立即动作迅速的行动起来,互相帮忙穿戴盔甲;而各级队官开始招呼下属的士兵归队,旗标手们也在挥舞手中旌旗,高呼队名,为士兵们标明方位。 Suddenly the dust fills the air, noisy, but quick restored tranquilly. 一时间尘土弥漫,一片嘈杂,但很快就又恢复了宁静。 Shows in front of Diaomilas no longer is eastern one pile and western one pile of soldier collectives sits in a circle chats and sleeps, the chaotic scene, but is fully-armed, the arrangement neat rows of infantry garrisons...... 展现在戴奥密拉斯面前的不再是东一堆、西一堆士兵集体围坐聊天、睡觉、乱糟糟的景象,而是全副武装、排列整齐的一列列步兵纵队…… Diaomilas held breath a cold air/Qi, as Taranto general that experiencing has fought repeatedly, in his heart understands: Must achieve this point, means that the army has the strict training and very strong sense of discipline. 戴奥米拉斯倒吸了口冷气,作为经历过多次战斗的塔兰图姆将领,他心中明白:要做到这一点,意味着军队有着严格的训练和很强的纪律性。 Then has a look at that side Taranto again: The soldiers and people mix up, but also is hugging and seeing off mutually, even some soldiers are still bursting into tears to weep bitterly, completely no point will soon go to battle with the appearance that kills the enemy. 再回头看看塔兰图姆那边:士兵和民众混在一起,还在相互拥抱、送别,甚至有的士兵还在流泪痛哭,完全没有一点即将出征杀敌的模样。 The face of Diaomilas could not hang, he without delay, transferred the horse's head to hurry back...... 戴奥米拉斯的脸挂不住了,他二话不说,调转马头赶了回去…… At this time, Teriphias and Taudeles also caught up. 这时,特里菲亚斯和图德普列斯也赶了过来。 Is Davos earnest saying of military garb: „Before embarking, we need to discuss the marching order.” 已经是一身戎装的戴弗斯认真的说道:“在出发前,我们需要商量一下行军顺序。” He takes a fast look around the people: „My suggestion is, the Theonia army walks in the forefront, Heraclea and Metapontum walks the middle, Taranto in finally.” 他扫视众人:“我的建议是,戴奥尼亚的军队走在最前面,赫拉克利亚与梅塔蓬图姆走中间,塔兰图姆在最后。” Umakas one hear understands the intention of Davos: Once encounters the enemy to attack, the Theonia army arrives in the forefront prevents, time of response and preparation to the following army. 攸马卡斯一听就明白戴弗斯的用意:一旦遭遇敌人进攻,戴奥尼亚军队抵在最前面阻挡,给后面的部队以反应和准备的时间。 This suggestion truly does not have the selfishness, the Umakas nod to agree, Teriphias and Taudeles does not have the opinion, their armies are weakest, was protected in the middle wishes for earnestly. 这个建议确实没有私心,攸马卡斯点头表示同意,特里菲亚斯和图德普列斯更是没有意见,他们的军队最弱,被护在中间求之不得。 „According to your previous time said, here arrives at the Manduria topography to be smooth, I prepare to be divided into five groups of garrisons the army, enlarges the gap of garrison and garrison, marches abreast in row, this can help deal with the foray of enemy, but can also reduce arrives at the Manduria time, moreover clamps the military baggage team in the middle also helps protect.” Davos continues to say. “根据你上次所说,这里到曼杜里亚地势平坦,我准备将军队分成五路纵队,拉大纵队与纵队的间隔,并排行军,这样可以便于应付敌人的突然袭击,还能缩短到达曼杜里亚的时间,而且将辎重队夹在中间也有利于保护。”戴弗斯继续说道。 Umakas hesitant, do not look at Davos to say with ease, without undergoing the training in this aspect, walked among the possible garrisons to mix up. 攸马卡斯犹豫了一下,别看戴弗斯说得轻松,要是没经过这方面的训练,走着走着可能纵队之间就混在一起了。 „This matter I must first with Diaomilas discuss that can decide.” His prudent saying. “这件事我得先跟戴奥米拉斯商量才能决定。”他慎重的说道。 Other two people do not have the opinion, their soldiers are few, are manageable. 其他二人则没意见,他们兵少,便于管理。 „Mounted scout who moreover sends, I suggested that is enrolled together by Theonia and Taranto cavalry.” Does not know the enemy intelligence when necessary, was equal to that the commander did not have the eye and ear, therefore heard although the Messapi cavalry is fierce, Davos made Ledes lead 200 cavalries to go by boat. As had understood crossing over to the ancient military history, the cavalry was Davos wants branch of the services of key training, even if has lost, but allowed the Theonia cavalry to understand that own disparity, and tried hard is still worth. Meanwhile, he also led the Izam mountain ridge detection brigade, understands and is familiar with this lands the terrain and mountain ridge, to prepare the future. “另外派出去的侦骑,我建议由戴奥尼亚与塔兰托姆的骑兵混编。”不随时了解敌情,就等于指挥官没有了眼睛和耳朵,因此尽管听说梅萨皮骑兵厉害,戴弗斯还是让莱德斯带了两百名骑兵乘船过来。作为对古代军事历史有所了解的穿越者,骑兵是戴弗斯要重点培养的一个兵种,因此即使有所损失,但让戴奥尼亚骑兵了解到自己的差距,并为之努力也是值得的。同时,他还带了伊扎姆的山岭侦查大队,了解和熟悉这片土地的地形和山岭,以备将来。 Taranto since battle, because the cavalry loss is very big, even presents some aristocrats the phenomenon that refuses to join the army, Umakas wishes for earnestly to this proposition. 塔兰图姆自开战以来,由于骑兵损失很大,甚至出现一些贵族拒绝从军的现象,攸马卡斯对这个提议求之不得。 When he goes back to Diaomilas conveyed several suggestions of Davos, Diaomilas slightly makes the ponder to reply: „Theonia can achieve, Taranto can also certainly be able to achieve!” 等他回去向戴奥米拉斯转达戴弗斯的几个建议时,戴奥米拉斯略作思考就回答道:“戴奥尼亚能做到的,塔兰图姆当然也能做得到！” After Allied armies were reorganized, starts. 戴塔联军经过整顿后,开始出发。 In fact, Messapi-Peuceti alliance after knowing the Greek army goes to battle, abandons a siege rapidly, flinches to Manduria south of inside and outside two in the camp. Therefore, Allied armies without any fight, even the mounted scouts had not been lost, smoothly enters the Manduria city when the dusk. 事实上,梅普联军在知道希腊军队出征后,就迅速撤围,退缩到曼杜里亚以南两里外的营地里。因此,戴塔联军未经任何战斗,甚至连侦骑都未受损失,在黄昏时就顺利进入曼杜里亚城。 Meeting with garrison troops makes the soldiers morale rise sharply, particularly Taranto person. Meanwhile, increase of strength makes the commanders slightly make the discussion, decides to rest a evening, the 2nd day closes on Messapi-Peuceti alliance. Only those who make them have a headache was not the big Manduria city forced about 30,000 people all of a sudden, appeared somewhat crowded, how to arrange the lodgings of soldiers is a matter of fee/spent brain. 与守军的会合让士兵们士气大涨,尤其是塔兰图姆人。同时,实力的增加让指挥官们略作商议,决定休息一晚,第二日直进逼梅普联军。唯一让他们头疼的是不大的曼杜里亚城一下子塞进了近3万人,显得有些拥挤了,如何安排好士兵们的住宿是一件费脑筋的事。 Next day, the cavalry squad that in the early morning, Suolikesi leads to be enrolled together nears the Messapi-Peuceti alliance camp, scouters the situation, finally actually discovers in the camp already the nobody left. 第二天,天刚亮,索里科斯就带领混编的骑兵小队抵近梅普联军营地,侦察情况,结果却发现营地里已经空无一人。 Suolikesi dispatches the person to return the news immediately, simultaneously under the Taranto cavalry soldier's guidance, is divided into two groups the cavalry squad. To south, in the Uzentum direction ; To east, in the Brindisi direction , to continue to search the enemy trail. 索里科斯立即遣人回报消息,同时在塔兰图姆骑兵的引导下,将骑兵小队分成两路。一路向南,朝乌真图姆方向;一路向东,朝布林迪西方向,继续搜索敌人踪迹。 Davos they learn of the news, realizing the enemy must escape, immediately gathering army. During this process, the cavalry incoming telegram, discovered the trail of enemy army in the east side again. 戴弗斯他们得知消息,意识到敌人要逃跑,当即集合军队。在此过程中,骑兵再次来报,在东面发现了敌人大军的踪迹。 The commanders' first response is: Messapi-Peuceti alliance must retreat Brindisi. 指挥官们的第一反应就是:梅普联军要退守布林迪西。 „We cannot make them fall back on Brindisi, such we must be forced to attack a city, the casualties of soldier will be very perhaps serious! We must catch up with them, conducts with them fights a decisive battle!” Diaomilas anxious shouting, captured the Brindisi tragic situation before, he still has a vivid memory. “我们不能让他们退到布林迪西,那样我们就要被迫攻城,士兵的伤亡恐怕会很严重！我们要追上他们,和他们进行就地决战！”戴奥密拉斯急切的喊道,之前攻取布林迪西的惨况,他依然记忆犹新。
