„Our Bruttians was so when friendly to Greeks! Because they are Theonian, feared them!” Exclaiming of Karner not indignation. In more than one year, although Bruttians is relatively close, has regarding the important matter of find, Bruttii all around rose suddenly a powerful city-state alliance, made the leaders of various tribes feel the pressure, only then the young people like Carnham was actually not convinced: „We are the wolf, Greeks are the sheep, even the sheep are many and is fat, they cannot fight the wolf!” “咱们布鲁提人什么时候对希腊人这么友善了！难道就因为他们是戴奥尼亚人,就怕了他们吗！”卡纳鲁不忿的吼道。这一年多,布鲁提人虽然比较封闭,对于外界发生的大事还是有所了解的,布鲁提的四周突然崛起了一个强大的城邦联盟,着实让各部落的首领们感到了压力,只有像卡纳姆这样的年轻人却偏偏不服气:“我们是狼,希腊人不过是羊,就算羊再多、再肥,它们也斗不过狼！” „Good, Kalam, how do not forget your father is to you said just before leaving, you do not certainly hope that he hears you do not listen to us to advise the vitality/angry to get angry again, then deprives the right that you just obtained, transmits to your brothers again.” Another old man also goes forward to persuade. “好啦,卡拉姆,别忘了你父亲临走时是怎么对你说的,你一定不希望他再次听到你不听我们劝阻的时候生气发怒,然后剥夺你刚获得的权利,再转交给你的兄弟吧。”另一个年纪大的男子也上前劝说。 Karner as if remembered anything, the complexion changes, he angrily turns around, just before leaving also stared Androlis one wickedly. 卡纳鲁似乎想起了什么,脸色微变,他气冲冲的转身出去,临走时还恶狠狠的瞪了安塔奥里斯一眼。 Androlis is inclining the head and listening attentively to accompany translates their talks low voice, saw only that old man to walk, moderate saying: „The Theonia envoy, my name was close to several Rippey, was a Signa's leader. His name was Briem, similarly was also Signa's leader.” 安塔奥里斯正侧耳倾听随从小声翻译他们的谈话,只见那位老者走了过来,语气温和的说道:“戴奥尼亚的使者,我叫巴几里皮,是比西尼亚的一位首领。他叫布里姆,同样也是比西尼亚的首领。” Androlis is smiling saluting, and in report own name. 安塔奥里斯微笑着行礼,并报上自己的名字。 „We send people to inform Cosenza the news that you arrive at immediately rapidly, you stay in Signa city to rest temporarily. Once receives the news that enters to transmit, we will send people to escort you to go to Cosenza.” “我们会立刻派人将你们到来的消息迅速通知科森扎,你们暂时留在比西尼亚城内歇息。一旦获得进入的消息传来,我们会派人护送你去科森扎。” ........................... ……………………… Bruttians sleeps very simply, covers the animal fur, rests directly on the fiery pit peripheral wood/blockhead floor. 布鲁提人睡觉很简单,盖上动物毛皮,直接睡在火坑周边的木头地板上。 Androlis one group of pass through afternoon climbing mountains and crossing rivers and frightening, has felt exhausted physically and mentally, has the dinner to fall to the ground to rest, quick fell asleep, the snoring sound rose from all directions. 安塔奥里斯一行人经过一个下午的跋涉和惊吓,早已身心俱疲,吃过晚餐倒地就睡,很快就进入了梦乡,鼾声四起。 In the darkness, the person is also only opening the eye. 在黑暗中,仅有一个人还睁着眼睛。 In Aantaa Orris's three accompany, a slave who is he most trusts, looks after his basic necessities of life all the way carefully ; But another is council, because Androlis does not speak the Bruttii language, for translator Guise who he looks for especially, he is the freeman who Theonia registers, mother is Greeks, was plundered by Bruttians, after being humiliated, is pregnant to give birth to him, since childhood he is the Bruttians slave, tasted completely the difficulty of life, finally seized an opportunity to flee from the Bruttii mountainous area, finally went through many places arrived at Thurii, he had the extremely deep hatred to Bruttians, can actually bear patiently ; Accompanying that finally this has not fallen asleep is Marigi recommends to Androlis, said that is the person of military affairs section, considering that in the future by some chance and Bruttians will have the war, needs to know the Bruttii area situation, in fact he will be the Theonia preparation citizen, named Antras Polis, Davos private intelligence officer Aristias younger brother. 在安塔奥利斯的三个随从中,其中一个是他最信赖的奴隶,一路上精心照顾他的衣食住行;而另一个则是元老院因为安塔奥里斯不懂布鲁提语,为他特地找来的翻译阿德皮吉斯,他是戴奥尼亚登记在册的自由民,母亲是希腊人,被布鲁提人掠走,受凌辱后怀孕而生下他,从小他就是布鲁提人的奴隶,尝尽了生活的艰辛,最后抓住一个机会逃离了布鲁提山区,最后辗转来到了图里伊,他对布鲁提人有极深的仇恨,却非常能够隐忍;最后这位还没有睡着的随从是马里吉推荐给安塔奥里斯的,说是军务部的人,考虑到将来万一与布鲁提人发生战争,需要了解布鲁提地区内部的情况,实际上他是戴奥尼亚的预备公民,名叫安特拉波里斯,戴弗斯的私人情报官阿里司提拉斯的弟弟。 Because the Izam reconnaissance group followed Davos to go to Taranto, Antras Polis is truly carrying out the detection responsibility in this aspect, at this moment he recalled all that the daytime is seeing in the mind diligently: From Thurii to the approximate time that Signa this road institute spends, as well as path is difficult to be good the degree, the position and reliable degree of Signa city, in the city the approximate quantity of population and soldier, adopts the talk to judge the personality of several Captain Signa...... wait/etc. Antras Polis is recalling repeatedly, until their clear carving in own brain, but also the somewhat fuzzy place waits for the next day he further confirming again. 由于伊扎姆的侦察大队跟随戴弗斯去了塔兰图姆,安特拉波利斯确实在履行这方面的侦查职责,此刻他在脑海里努力回忆着白天所看到的一切:从图里伊到比西尼亚这条路所花费的大致时间,以及道路的难行程度,比西尼亚城的位置及牢固程度,城内人口及士兵的大致数量,通过谈话判断几位比西尼亚首领的性格……等等。安特拉波里斯一遍一遍的回忆着,直到将它们清晰的刻在自己的脑子里,还有些模糊的地方有待于第二天他再进一步确认。 Waits for this matter to complete, Antras Polis will look at rested in opposite Androlis- this will be his another duty object. His near range surveillance and observation this join the council Krimisa person then to go abroad on a diplomatic mission newly the performance of Cosenza. 等这件事做完,安特拉波里斯将目光投向了睡在对面的安塔奥里斯-这是他的另一个任务对象。他将近距离监视和观察这位新加入元老院的克里米萨人在接下来出使科森扎的表现。 Antras Polis the first time is not did such matter, when just started some of his also resistances, he said to Elder Brother Aristias: Before Syracuse overstepping authority lord Eilon once to establish the spy system, monitored the personal life of city-state citizen wantonly, therefore the reputation was very notorious, he does not hope Davos that they attached to also turned into such person. 安特拉波里斯并不是第一次做这样的事,在刚开始的时候他还有些抗拒,他对哥哥阿里斯提拉斯说:锡拉库扎以前的僭主希埃隆就曾经创立特务制度,大肆监视城邦公民的私人生活,因此名声很臭,他不希望他们所依附的戴弗斯也变成那样的人。 However, Aristias persuaded him: Eilon reputation is not good, is mainly because he rules as a dictatorship, excessively suspects and oppress citizens, therefore seething popular discontent. But Davos as broadminded and cool-headed lifelong archon , understood very much the freedom of maintenance people, should not make such mistake, moreover his ability is outstanding, the rapid rise of Theonia alliance had shown all, is resistance Syracuse that the two brothers favor, rebuilds the best command of Catania. Therefore strengthens his leading positions, preventing the people with ulterior motives to rebel, becomes one of the Aristias important duties. 但是,阿里斯提拉斯劝说他:希埃隆名声不好,主要是因为他过于独裁,过度猜忌和压迫公民,因此民怨沸腾。而戴弗斯作为一个胸襟开阔、头脑冷静的终身执政官,很懂得维护民众的自由,应该不会犯这样的错误,而且他能力出众,戴奥尼亚联盟的迅速崛起已经说明了一切,是他们兄弟俩看好的对抗锡拉库扎、重建卡塔奈的最佳统帅。因此巩固他的领导地位,防止别有用心的人从中作乱,成为阿里斯提拉斯的重要职责之一。 After Antras Polis the Elder Brother convinced, once Genzong, has investigated the trends of many council senior statesmen. Should say, most senior statesmen are support and approve the Davos lifetime archon position, Pollux and other few people are freely discontented with Davos, but they are also simply talks, and has no concrete action. As for Aantaa Orris, Krimisa enters in the council three people led by him, after arriving at Thurii, except for attending the council conference, usually in lives in seclusion, is short contacts with other senior statesmen, making Aristias really be curious, these went abroad on a diplomatic mission time understood the good opportunity of this Krimisa person, will be Davos will also use and appointment senior official in the future provides the reference. At least looks from the present performance, although Androlis is a Krimisa aristocrat, but can endure hardship and have the courage and wisdom, Antras Polis anticipates his following performance very much. 安特拉波里斯被哥哥说服后,曾跟踪、调查过多名元老院元老的动向。应该说,绝大多数元老都是支持和认同戴弗斯的终身执政官地位的,波吕克西斯等极少数人尽管对戴弗斯不满,但他们也只是停留在口头上,并没有什么具体的行动。至于安塔奥利斯,克里米萨进入元老院的三人中以他为首,来到图里伊以后,除了出席元老院会议,平日里深居简出,少与其他元老接触,令阿里司提拉斯甚为好奇,这一次出使正是了解这位克里米萨人的好机会,同时也为戴弗斯将来使用和任命高级官员提供参考。至少从现在的表现看,安塔奥里斯虽然是克里米萨的一位贵族,但能吃苦并且有胆识,安特拉波里斯很期待他接下来的表现。 Next afternoon, Cosenza transmits the messenger, Aantaa Orris and his party is allowed to enter Cosenza. 第二天下午,科森扎传来信使,安塔奥利斯一行人获准进入科森扎。 Palestinian several Rippey also sent ten soldiers, gives the euphemistic name of „escorting” the Theonia envoy to go to Cosenza. 巴几里皮还派了十名战士,美其名曰“护送”戴奥尼亚使者前往科森扎。 The group go out of town, starts to march forward to the west along the mountain road, without walking many were intercepted. 一行人出了城,沿山道开始向西行进,没走多远就被人截住。 Karner is riding a horse, appears before them, complacent saying: „Greeks, I have not entertained you, wants to walk!” 卡纳鲁骑着马,出现在他们面前,得意洋洋的说道:“希腊人,我还没有招待你们,就想这么走了吗！” Androlis they feel anxiously. 安塔奥里斯他们顿感紧张。 At this time, the Bruttii soldier who was responsible for escorting went forward to persuade Karner, was actually sent to detain by him hand/subordinate: „Relax, I will not make you go back unable to confess.” 这时,负责护送的布鲁提战士上前想劝说卡纳鲁,却被他派手下拦阻:“放心吧,我不会让你们回去无法交代的。” After he makes the commitment, immediately the complexion sinks, eye reveal ominous light: „Ruthlessly pulls out their five whips to me! Let them know that Greeks does not pay a price, is not easy to pass my Signa city!” 他做出承诺后,随即脸色一沉,眼露凶光:“狠狠的给我抽他们五鞭！让他们知道希腊人不付出点代价,可不是那么容易通过我的比西尼亚城！” He said, Androlis they also responded without enough time, closed by the Bruttii soldier, pushes to the ground. 他说完,安塔奥里斯他们还来不及反应,就被布鲁提战士一拥而上,按倒在地。 Everyone five whips, is all bruised and lacerated. Guise was made the anger, shouted abuse in the Bruttii language. 每人五鞭打下来,个个皮开肉绽。阿德皮吉斯被打出了火气,用布鲁提语破口大骂。 Karner is listening, actually laughs, shouts: „Calls his three whips me again!” 卡纳鲁听着,却哈哈大笑,喊道:“再给我打他三鞭！” Guise also thinks to scold, Androlis shouted in a low voice: „Guise, do not forget us is comes to here to do!” 阿德皮吉斯还想在骂,安塔奥里斯低声喝道:“阿德皮吉斯,别忘了我们是来这里干什么的！” Guise hears word shakes, slowly lowers the head. 阿德皮吉斯闻言一震,慢慢低下头。 Karner saw Greeks not to have the response, quite felt senselessly, he does not dare to do too excessively, in order to avoid looked for father's anger, shouted one: „Timid Greeks, walked.” Both hands shake horse reins/bridle, along the path, spreads to east. 卡纳鲁见希腊人没有了反应,颇感无趣,他也不敢做得太过分,以免找来父亲的怒火,喊了一声:“胆小的希腊人,走了。”双手一抖马缰,沿着道路,向东驰去。 The Androlis four people support by the arm mutually, difficult vanguard. 安塔奥里斯四人相互搀扶,艰难前行。 Although the topography is getting higher and higher, the path actually no longer rugged difficult line, continuous mountain peak retiring gradually to the both sides, the front is the lawn of little relief, the dense pliable but hard to break grass is embellishing the colorful wild flower, just like a vast boundless and multi-colored big rug, has extended to the distant place...... flocks of cattle, has the horses or peaceful grazing on the land on slopes, or raises four hooves, to run to play, during the twinkle star thatched-roofed hut is situated, some had raised the smoke from kitchen chimneys. 虽然地势越来越高,道路却不再崎岖难行,连绵的山峰渐渐的退隐到了两侧,前方是平缓起伏的草地,密密层层的柔韧小草点缀着五颜六色的野花,犹如一副辽阔无边、五彩缤纷的大地毯,一直延伸向远方……一群群的牛羊、还有马匹或在坡地上安静的吃草,或扬起四蹄、奔跑嬉戏,星星点点的草屋坐落其间,有的已经升起了炊烟。 The person who on the road sees gradually are also many, they are driving the cattle, at the back of the cargo, appears in each place of land on slopes, goes forward in the same direction. 路上看到的人也渐渐多起来,他们赶着牛羊,背着货物,出现在坡地的各个地方,朝着同一个方向前进。 By the evening, Androlis taking advantage of the moonlight, seeing the front to stand erect a palatial huge shadow, he knew Cosenza. 到了傍晚,安塔奥里斯借着月光,看见前方矗立着一座巍峨的巨大黑影,他知道科森扎到了。 Because has crossed entered the city time, Androlis one group of can only the tent outside the city pass the night. 由于已经过了入城时间,安塔奥里斯一行人只能在城外搭帐篷过夜。 Next morning, the escorted Bruttii soldier notifies to the city immediately. 第二天一早,护送的布鲁提战士立即向城内通报。 Quick, Androlis one group of receive the guard who the tribe alliance sends to line up in formation welcome, was invited to enter the Cosenza city. 很快,安塔奥里斯一行人就受到部落联盟派来的卫兵列队欢迎,被邀请进入科森扎城。 After using breakfast, Androlis was brought the Cosenza discussing official business hall, compares comparatively Signa's that thatched-roofed hut, here wants the style to be much broader. 在用过早餐之后,安塔奥里斯被带到了科森扎的议事大厅,相比较比西尼亚的那间草屋,这里要气派恢宏得多。 Center sits one person, the both sides sit three people respectively, the central seat obviously wanted to be higher, it seems like had branched out primary and secondary. 正中坐着一人,两侧各坐着三人,中央的座位明显要高一些,看来已经分出了主次。 Androlis is thinking at heart composes the news of tribe alliance about various Bruttii tribes under the Cosenza big leader's leadership, at the same time respectful bows to salute: „Fellow big leaders of respect, I am Theonia envoy Androlis, brought the regards of Theonia council!” 安塔奥里斯心里想着关于布鲁提各部落在科森扎大首领的领导下组成部落联盟的消息,一边恭敬的躬身行礼:“尊敬的各位大首领,我是戴奥尼亚的使者安塔奥里斯,带来了戴奥尼亚元老院的问候！” Also without and other Translator Guise, middle that person said in Greek: „The Theonia envoy, welcome you to arrive at central Cosenza of Bruttii tribe alliance, I am big leader Yasutomo of entire tribe alliance.” 还没等阿德皮吉斯翻译,当中那人就用希腊语说道:“戴奥尼亚的使者,欢迎你来到布鲁提部落联盟的中心科森扎,我是整个部落联盟的大首领皮安伦。” He finishes speaking, most the person close to his lower left stands up, asked in Greek: „Bruttii and Theonia did not have the contact, does not know that what matter the envoy this time does come for?” 他话音刚落,最靠近他左侧下方的人站起身,用希腊语问道:“布鲁提与戴奥尼亚一直没有往来,不知道使者这次来是为了什么事？” Such remarks, others in discussing official business hall will focus in Androlis. 此言一出,议事大厅内的其他人都将目光聚焦在安塔奥里斯上。 Androlis has not thought that just met, Bruttians displayed the desktop the issue, he does not have to reply immediately, turns the head to ask: „Are you?” 安塔奥里斯没想到刚一见面,布鲁提人就将问题摆上了桌面,他没有立刻回答,转头问道:“请问你是？” „Big leader Dorum of Vergae city, is the elder of tribe alliance.” Dorum has had happening together in several big leaders with Theonia only. A year ago, when the Lucania alliance attacks Thurii, he leads the clansman to attack the past mercenaries leader and present Theonia archon Davos camp, afterward the Davos design annihilated Lucanian alliance, enabling Dorum to seize the opportunity, betrayed the Lucania alliance, in later as a result of the Vergae city near Laos, being in power and Laos of turmoil and Avinoges in Laos city joined the Theonia union...... sequences of events to just like occurrence of one after another galloping-horse lantern, he had understand. Therefore, although he has not seen Davos, does not have to do with Theonia directly, but he has to be vigilant to Davos and to Theonia. When knew when Theonia sends the envoy arrives, Dorum warned that others must carefully handle affairs, because the Theonia strength has surpassed Bruttii now obviously. “维格城的大首领塞多鲁姆,同时也是部落联盟的长老。”塞多鲁姆在几位大首领中是唯一跟戴奥尼亚有过交集的。一年前,卢卡尼亚联盟进攻图里伊时,他就率领族人进攻过当年的雇佣军首领、现在的戴奥尼亚执政官戴弗斯的营地,后来戴弗斯设计围歼卢卡尼亚联军,使得塞多鲁姆抓住机会,叛离卢卡尼亚联盟,在之后由于维格城毗邻拉俄斯,拉俄斯城内的动乱、阿维诺吉斯的掌权、拉俄斯加入戴奥尼亚同盟……一系列事件犹如走马灯似的相继发生,他都是有所了解的。因此,虽然他还未见过戴弗斯,也没有直接与戴奥尼亚打过交道,但是他对戴弗斯、对戴奥尼亚是有所警惕的。所以当得知戴奥尼亚派使者到来时,塞多鲁姆告诫其他人一定要慎重行事,因为现在戴奥尼亚的实力已明显超过布鲁提。
