In the corner, Tios and Dick Polis sit peacefully tastes the good food. 角落里,提奥斯和迪克波利斯安静的坐着品尝美食。 Tios finished eating the frying beef in plate, said loudly: „Please come one glass of wines with me.” 提奥斯吃完盘中的煎牛肉,大声说道:“请跟我来一杯葡萄酒。” After having been responded, he takes up the left hand side clean linen turban, cleans the grease stains of corners of the mouth. 得到回应后,他拿起左手侧干净的亚麻布巾,擦拭嘴角的油渍。 „So long as watched public trial of this day, anybody-” Dick Polis referred to periphery arguing with the fork loudly the diners, said: „It is angry, you display tranquilly.” “只要是看了这一天的公审,任何人-”迪克波利斯用叉子指了指周围大声争论着的食客们,说道:“都很愤怒,你倒表现得平静。” „Having anything is quite angry! In my once city-state Corinth, such matter was not rare.” Tios received the wine from the waiter hand, expresses gratitude , to continue saying: „In city-state the important position was being dominated by the aristocrat, the election of general is always also conducted in that more than ten families, aren't you in Kyle Doria this?( Kyle Doria city-state on Island of Crete, in the westernmost of islands)” “有什么好愤怒的！在我曾经的城邦科林斯,这样的事也不少见。”提奥斯从侍者手中接过葡萄酒,道了声谢,继续说道:“城邦里重要的职位都被贵族把持着,将军的推选也始终在那十几个家族中进行,难道你在凯尔多利亚不是这样吗？(凯尔多利亚是在克里特岛上的一个城邦,在岛屿的最西端)” „Said is also, therefore I and your same is calm.” “说的也是,所以我和你一样心情平静。” Two people smile. 两人都笑起来。 „But, a little you said is not right, Kyle Doria was only my once city-state, now I am Theonian.” Dick Polis does intentionally the earnest reminder to say. “不过,有一点你说的不对,凯尔多利亚只是我曾经的城邦,现在我是戴奥尼亚人。”迪克波利斯故作认真的提醒道。 „Your I am.” Tios holds up the wine glass with a smile, two people flip. “你我都是。”提奥斯笑着举起酒杯,两人轻碰了一下。 „But, that Pollux has an approach...... I am the approval......” Dick Polis looked at the surroundings, collects, said one in a low voice: „Convenes ecclesia.” “不过,那个波吕克西斯的有一个做法……我是赞同的……”迪克波利斯看了看周围,把头凑过去,低声说了一句:“召开公民大会。” Tios visits him, without speech. 提奥斯看着他,没有说话。 Dick Polis continues to say in a low voice: „All decisions in Theonia alliance have the council formulation, our ordinary citizen is unable to participate, is unable to oppose, anything did not decide. Although the ordinary citizen possibly becomes a council senior statesman, but under the law stipulated, this road was really long! Like our merchants, rushes about all day outside, at all impossible to take the post of what public service, if-” 迪克波利斯继续低声说道:“戴奥尼亚联盟里的一切决策都有元老院制定,我们普通公民既无法参与,更无法反对,什么都决定不了。虽然普通公民可能成为一名元老院元老,可是按照法律规定,这条路实在是太漫长了！像我们商人,整日在外奔波,根本不可能去担任什么公职,如果-” Dick Polis hesitant, said: „If the system of Theonia has not changed, perhaps perhaps...... will have some merchants to leave. After all, has a lot of money, is actually not able to interfere with Theonia council any decision, always makes our merchants unwilling, is right?” 迪克波利斯犹豫了一下,还是说道:“如果戴奥尼亚的制度没有变动的话,恐怕……恐怕会有一些商人要离开。毕竟,拥有大量的金钱,却无法干涉戴奥尼亚元老院的任何决策,总是让我们商人不甘心,对不对？” Tios lowered the head to sip liquor, is constraining being startled in heart, asked: „In the person who must leave also includes you?” 提奥斯低头啜了一口酒,压抑着心中的吃惊,问道:“要离开的人中也包括你吗？” „I will certainly not leave here!” Dick Polis said a word affirmative saying: „Here has the Mediterranean best good food! Has best entertainment athletics! Best hot spring big bathing place! Moreover without the war of invasion, simply is ground Elysium! Why I must leave!” Dick Polis depends toward the chairback on, said loudly. “我当然不会离开这里！”迪克波利斯言语肯定的说道:“这里有地中海最好的美食！有最好的娱乐竞技！最好的温泉大浴场！而且没有入侵的战争,简直就是地上的爱丽舍乐园！我为什么要离开！”迪克波利斯往椅背上一靠,大声说道。 „Right that said that friend!” Side came complexion, the manner slightly drunk man to make an effort to pat the Dick Polis's shoulder slightly red, excited said loudly: „Because has Sir Davos, will have today the beautiful Thurii city! The brothers, making us respect great Sir Davos!” “说的对,朋友！”旁边过来一个脸色微红、神态微醺的汉子使劲拍了一下迪克波利斯的肩膀,兴奋的高声说道:“正是因为有戴弗斯大人,才会有今日美丽的图里伊城！兄弟们,让我们敬伟大的戴弗斯大人！” He said, the diner of sharing a table stands, holds up the wine glass: „Respects Sir Davos!” 他说完,同桌的食客站起来,举起酒杯:“敬戴弗斯大人！” By their influences, other diners also stood up. 受他们的影响,其他的食客也纷纷站起。 „Sir Davos, for victory!” “戴弗斯大人,万胜！” „Salutes to our great commanders!” “向我们伟大的司令官致敬！” The noisy restaurant gathered a sound unexpectedly. 原本嘈杂的餐馆竟汇聚成了一个声音。 After the people respect the liquor, some people stand, saying of cracking a joke: „Respects our damn council!” 众人敬完酒后,有人站起来,开玩笑的说道:“敬我们该死的元老院！” Immediately ridicules the sound to get up. 顿时笑骂声又起。 Dick Polis looks at them to be noisy with a smile, Tios reminded him: „Now Theonia does not have the danger of war!” 迪克波利斯笑着看他们吵闹,提奥斯提醒他:“现在戴奥尼亚也并非没有战争的危险！” Dick Polis stares, immediately said: „You are worried about Syracuse?” 迪克波利斯一愣,随即说道:“你是担心锡拉库扎？” Tios slight nod. 提奥斯微微点头。 Beckoning with the hand that Dick Polis not cares: „As once Corinth person, I thought that you should not be worried about this issue. In Greece, Sparta, Athens, Corinth, Thebes and Argos...... wait/etc among city-state happen to send the spy and buy enemy nation congressmen, the maintenance enemy nation interests...... such matter on ecclesia to be even few! Because if such minor matter has the war, Greece is in great confusion bad!...... But, truly speaking, the present Greek situation was too truly bad, particularly Corinth. Heard that the Sparta army is stationed in Corinth, frequently with Corinth and Athens, Thebes and Argos allied armies has the fight, daily some people died...... you to come out early, was really lucky!” 迪克波利斯毫不在意的摆摆手:“作为曾经的科林斯人,我觉得你不应该担心这个问题。在希腊本土,斯巴达、雅典、科林斯、底比斯、阿哥斯……等等城邦之间发生派遣间谍、收买敌邦议员、甚至在公民大会上维护敌邦利益……这样的事还少吗！要是因为这样的小事就发生战争,希腊本土早就乱成一团糟了！……不过,说实在的,现在的希腊本土的情况确实太糟了,尤其是科林斯。听说斯巴达的军队就驻扎在科林斯境内,经常与科林斯、雅典,底比斯、阿哥斯的联军发生战斗,天天都有人死亡……你能及早的出来,实在是太幸运了！” Tios was mentioned the mother-state matter by Dick Polis, silent a while, said however sighs deeply: „Yes, the day of Corinth person does not feel better...... heard that Sparta king Agesilaus leads in northern Greece to land in the army that Persia goes on an expedition, is preparing to go south, army together north and south converging attack with Sparta native place, anti- Sparta allied armies affirmation danger!...... Said, I really should thank you well, your persuasion, I will not make quickly decision that joins Theonia!” 提奥斯被迪克波利斯说起母邦的事情,沉默了一会儿,才谓然长叹:“是啊,科林斯人的日子不好过……听说斯巴达王阿格西劳斯率领在波斯征战的部队已经在希腊北部登陆,正在准备南下,同斯巴达本土的军队一起南北夹击,反斯巴达的联军肯定危险了！……说起来,我真应该好好感谢你,要不是你的劝说,我也不会这么快就做出了加入戴奥尼亚的决定！” Dick Polis haha said with a smile: „Since this, how you should thank me?” 迪克波利斯哈哈笑道:“既然这样,你应该怎样感谢我呢？” This is the words of joke, but Tios said in a low voice: „Couple days ago I went to Sir Davos Mansion, discussed the matter of stone bridge donation with him. You know that I follow Sir Davos to donate money repeatedly, tallied Theonia for these years newly through about ‚foreigner built public building reward provision’ the bill, becomes the Theonia citizen quickly......” 这本是玩笑的话,但提奥斯低声说道:“前几天我去戴弗斯大人府邸,跟他商议石桥捐款的事。你知道的,我就是多次跟随戴弗斯大人捐款,符合了戴奥尼亚这几年新通过的关于‘外邦人捐建公共建筑的奖励条款’的法案,才这么快成为了戴奥尼亚公民的……” „You but now big merchant.” Dick Polis said one. “你现在可是大商人了。”迪克波利斯说了一句。 Tios has not paid attention to his words the light sour taste , to continue saying: ” Sir Davos asked me carefully about some merchants at the matter of square protest, finally he said that ‚cannot, Theonia probably change this way!’ ” 提奥斯没有理会他话里淡淡的酸味儿,继续说道:”戴弗斯大人仔细问起我关于一些商人在广场抗议的事,最后他说了一句,‘不能再这样下去了,戴奥尼亚必须要有所改变！’” „Did he really say?!” Dick Polis's surprised asking. “他真的这么说？！”迪克波利斯吃惊的问。 „Naturally, I remember clear!” Tios exceptionally affirmative saying: „Sir Davos is always a meaning what he says person!” “当然,我记得一清二楚！”提奥斯异常肯定的说道:“戴弗斯大人向来是一个说话算话的人！” In Dick Polis eyes is flashing the ray...... 迪克波利斯眼中闪着光芒…… ................................. …………………………… „Sir, do you look for me?” Aristias enters the Davos study room. “大人,你找我？”阿里司提拉斯走进戴弗斯的书房。 „Sits, Aristias.” Davos referred to wooden chair very much at will. “坐,阿里司提拉斯。”戴弗斯很随意的指了指身旁的木椅。 „Yes, Sir.” Although optional of very Davos performance, but Aristias actually respectful and prudent sitting down. “是,大人。”虽然戴弗斯表现的很随意,但阿里司提拉斯却恭谨的坐下。 Davos partly depends on the chairback, looks at own intelligence head, said: „Did you follow I to have nearly five years?” 戴弗斯半靠着椅背,看着自己的这位情报头子,说道:“你跟着我应该有快五年了吧？” „Said accurately should be misses for four months 9 days of full five years.” Aristias earnest saying. “准确的说应该是差四个月零九天满五年。”阿里司提拉斯认真的说道。 „You remember that may be really clear.” Davos said with a smile: „Was so long with me, has not seen you to gain weight.” “你记得可真清楚。”戴弗斯笑道:“跟了我这么久,也没见你长胖一点。” Aristias helpless saying: „Subordinate is this physique, how to eat is not fat.” 阿里司提拉斯无奈的说道:“属下就是这个体质,怎么吃也不胖。” „Cheiristoya, if has your such physique, she may happily be bad.” Davos hehe said with a smile. “克莉斯托娅要是有你这样的体质,那她可就高兴坏了。”戴弗斯呵呵笑道。 He sighs with emotion young people who look at this tall thin: „You were so long with me, even if has become the Theonia citizen, is still willing to continue to collect the information for me, can definitely be competent any public service of alliance...... to say by your ability, what your silently was the alliance made very big contribution! Like this public trial case, I really thanked you time, felt very guilty!......” 他感慨的看着这位高瘦的青年人:“你跟了我这么久,即使已经成为了戴奥尼亚公民,也依然愿意为我继续收集情报,以你的能力完全可以胜任联盟的任何一个公职……可以说,你默默的为联盟做出了很大的贡献！就像这一次的公审案件一样,我实在是非常感谢你,同时也感到很愧疚啊！……” Aristias suddenly somewhat is at heart anxious: Can Davos make me leave here? 阿里司提拉斯心里忽然有些不安:难道戴弗斯要让我离开这里？ The right hand of Davos rapped gently several toward the wooden chair arm rest on, said slowly: „From now on, I can make anything finally, returns you to my help.” 戴弗斯的右手往木椅扶手上轻轻敲击了几下,缓缓说道:“从现在开始,我终于可以做点什么,来回报你对我的帮助。” Aristias had almost chest pains while breathing by the thread of conversation of Davos sharp bend, listens to Davos to continue saying: „Aristias, you knew about Syracuse. You said to look, if we make war with facing each other across the sea Sicily that powerful city-state, has the odds of success?” 阿里司提拉斯被戴弗斯突转的话锋差点岔了气,就听戴弗斯继续说道:“阿里司提拉斯,你对锡拉库扎非常了解。你说说看,如果我们与隔海相望的西西里那个强大的城邦开战,有胜算吗？” The Aristias disturbed heart beats finally suddenly, he is restraining by force excitedly, thought some little time, saying: „Sir, I think that compared with Theonia and Syracuse, in the strength also has a big disparity.” 阿里司提拉斯忐忑的心终于急剧跳动起来,他强压着激动,想了好一会儿,才说道:“大人,我认为戴奥尼亚与锡拉库扎相比,实力上还有不小的差距。” Davos is not surprised to the content that Aristias spoke, what he satisfied was his attitude, even if held the hatred to Syracuse, can still stand in the objective standpoint analyzes the issue: „Oh, what disparity has? You said in detail.” 戴弗斯对阿里司提拉斯说话的内容并不吃惊,他满意的是他的态度,即使对锡拉库扎抱有仇恨,仍然能站在客观的立场上分析问题:“噢,有什么差距？你详细说说。” „According to the Sir once I have said mainly from four aspects judged a city-state strength strong and weak, these four aspects are the population, the economic capacity and land area...... un...... have...... move......” “按照大人曾经给我讲过的主要从四个方面来判断一个城邦实力强弱,这四个方面是人口、经济能力、国土面积……嗯……还有……动……” „War mobilization ability.” The Davos reminder said. “战争动员能力。”戴弗斯提醒道。 „I nearly forgot.” Aristias managed the mentality , to continue saying: „ Now the Sicily island besides spleen and Ecuadoran law Kaess, Paneau Muse and other coastal city-state of westernmost by the Carthaginians control beyond, other areas has also been conquered by the Syracuse person, various despicable scheme was also conquered by Dionysius through the buy, assassination including eastern inland Siculians. Sicily Greece Allied armies fierce combat that although Carthaginians also leads in Szo Luse and Dionysius, the news that but according to obtains most newly, Carthaginians continuous fighting has been in unfavorable situation, it is estimated that is repulsed is only sooner or later matter. “我差点儿忘了。”阿里司提拉斯重新理了理思路,继续说道:“现在西西里岛除了利利脾、厄律克斯、帕诺姆斯等几个最西部的沿海城邦还被迦太基人掌控外,其他的地区已经被锡拉库扎人征服,包括东部内陆的西凯尔人也被狄奥尼修斯通过收买、暗杀等各种卑劣的计谋所征服。虽然迦太基人还在索鲁斯与狄奥尼修斯率领的西西里希腊联军激战,但据最新得到的消息,迦太基人已经连战失利,估计败退只是迟早的事。 According to us dispatched Syracuse, Gela, Agrigentum and Leontium...... ” Aristias to stop: „The situation that the Theonia merchant who Catania, Naxos and other city-state the person acquired information, as well as go to various Sicily city-state trades listens to unifies, has an approximate understanding of the Syracuse strength-” 根据我们派往锡拉库扎、杰拉、阿格利真托、列奥提尼……”阿里司提拉斯停顿了一下:“卡塔奈、那克索斯等城邦的人收集到的情报,以及去西西里各城邦贸易的戴奥尼亚商人听来的情况结合起来,对锡拉库扎的实力有一个大致的了解-” He stopped again, Davos patted the arm rest: „You said although, my courage is quite big.” 他再次停顿了一下,戴弗斯轻拍扶手:“你尽管说,我这个人胆子比较大。” „The Syracuse city with its peripheral town population about 400,000 people, in addition possibly is close to 1.3 million people...... saying here by other Dionysius positive governing and attached city-state”, he looked at Davos. “锡拉库扎城与其周边的城镇人数大约有40万人,再加上被狄奥尼修斯直接控制和附属的其他城邦可能接近一百三十万人……”说道这里,他看了看戴弗斯。 The Davos facial expression is tranquil, hint made him continue. 戴弗斯神情平静,示意让他继续说下去。
