当号手吹奏着令人心悸的高音鸣笛,斯巴达战士们唱着向古代英雄致敬的、令人战栗的颂歌,步调一致的向他们冲锋时,往往这些希腊城邦士兵都会心理崩溃,还未交战就转身逃跑,也不愿冒险对抗斯巴达。斯巴达人依靠着这种在战场上通过军队整体一致制造出的恐怖气氛和一场场血腥杀戮,百年来震慑着希腊本土的其他城邦。

从皮科西斯到波塞冬里亚的这一片临海的地域,没有南意的东海岸从图里伊到克罗托内、再到洛克里那样地势平坦,它多是山脉、丘陵地带,地面崎岖、起伏不平。
The thirdarmyattemptindifficultmarchingalsowantwayElliadeon the way.
第三军图在艰难的行军途中还要途径埃利亚。Ascity-state of Theoniaunion, after ElliadechiefgeneralKanosobtains the news, has not hesitated, calls1500citizensoldierspersonally, laterjoinsto the ranks of thirdregiment. After all after SamnitesseizesPoseidonia, Elliadewas under the aggressiveSamnitessoldier/weaponfrontdirectly, Elliadepersonexpected that Theoniacanrepelfrom the northernwickedwolf, makingElliaderestorepeacefully.
作为戴奥尼亚同盟的城邦,埃利亚首席将军卡尼奥斯得到消息后没有迟疑,亲自召集1500名公民兵,随后加入到第三军团的行列中。毕竟萨莫奈人占领波塞冬尼亚后,埃利亚就直接处于了凶悍的萨莫奈人的兵锋之下,埃利亚人期望戴奥尼亚能击退来自北方的这支恶狼,让埃利亚恢复安宁。After the thirdregimentleavesquite a while, Davosleads the first, secondregimentalsoto set outtonorth.
在第三军团离开半天之后,戴弗斯率领第一、第二军团也向北进发。Pyxouschief executiveAndrolishas not been idling, hemustassistto arrange the provisions of these30,000soldiers.

…………………………Byafternoon, the thirdregimentwhenmetafterAlley Runner-up, the booklettoNortheast, preparesto bypass the occupying land areabroadmountain ridge of Elliadedue northseashore, butPoseidonianorthmountain ridge.
到了下午,第三军团在与埃利亚军队会合之后,折向东北方向,准备绕过埃利亚正北方海边的这一片占地较广的山岭,而波塞冬尼亚就在山岭北面。
The lineto the halfway, the thirdarmychartstopped the advance, startsto construct the camp.
行至半途,第三军图停止了前进,开始建造营地。
The sound that theymakeis very big, veryeasilyby the scoutdiscovery of Samnites.
他们制造的动静很大,很轻易的就被萨莫奈人的探子发现。„What did yousay?! Theonianappearsin the south of Stella Mountain, andpitches campin the Arentoriver bank?!”Is startledin the Poseidoniacitymainmansionandtogood foodbigmouthmaking chewing motionsPentriCaptainPisini.
“你说什么?!戴奥尼亚人出现在斯泰拉山的南面,并且在阿伦托河畔扎营?!”正在波塞冬尼亚城主府邸、对着美食大口朵颐的彭特尼首领皮希尼大吃一惊。„Yes, Leader. Theyhave more than 10,000people! Moreoverwequietlyclose totheircamps, but alsodiscoverson the flag that intheircampsraises upto write‚the thirdregiment’!”In the scoutanxiouswords is mixing withseveralpoints of contentment.
“是的,首领。他们有一万多人!而且我们悄悄的靠近他们的营地,还发现他们营地里竖起的大旗上写着‘第三军团’!”探子焦急的话语中又夹杂着几分自得。„The Theoniathirdregiment! Shouldn't theyinGrumentum?!

“戴奥尼亚的第三军团!他们不是应该在格鲁门图姆吗?!怎么跑到这里来了?!”皮希尼此刻也没了胃口,将手中才刚啃了几口的羊肉往桌上一扔,低下头将满嘴的油渍都擦拭在他已很脏污的皮袍上。„Ithink that TheoniandecidedhearsPoseidoniato be attacked and occupiedbyus, hurriedlycaught up, wantedto recaptureit.”AnotherleaderBucherwas guessingsaid.
“我想戴奥尼亚人定是听到了波塞冬尼亚被我们攻占,才急匆匆的赶来,想要夺回它。”另一位首领摩布克猜测着说道。„WhatTheoniacomesis10,000people, butweonly have3000soldiers! Moreovertheycomeis so quick, before Poseidoniacity , the place that uses the crossbowartilleryto destroyis repairedbyuswith enough time, howcandefendtheirattacks!”Pisiniagitatedpacesin the roomback and forth.
“戴奥尼亚来的可是1万人啊,而我们只有3000战士!而且他们来的这么快,波塞冬尼亚城之前被我们用弩炮毁坏的地方还没有来得及修复,怎么能够防住他们的进攻!”皮希尼烦躁的在屋内来回踱步。„Thereforewemustsend forPotentiaimmediately, requests reinforcementsto the bigleader!”Bucherreminded.
“所以我们要立刻派人去波腾提亚,向大首领求援!”摩布克提醒道。„Thisisnatural!...... Youinform the soldiersimmediately, no matterdoestonightlate, mustmake upthat several gap of city walltome!”Pisinipounds the fistlayer on layer/heavilyon the wooden table.
“这是当然的!还有……你马上去通知战士们,不管今晚干到多晚,都要给我将那几个城墙的缺口补上!”皮希尼重重地将拳头砸在木桌上。.................................

The toward evening, Alexiussends out all reconnaissancesquadmembers'to the Samniumscout in surroundingsareato conduct the action of driving awayandcapturing and killing.
黄昏时分,阿莱克西斯派出所有的侦察小队成员对周围地区的萨莫奈探子进行驱赶和捕杀。Is the night, 20,000armies who Davosleadsenters the Elliadecityquietly, beforehandobtainsElliadeperson of Alexiusnotice, has set aside the placearchTheoniaarmyto live.
是夜,戴弗斯所率的两万大军悄悄进入埃利亚城,事先得到阿莱克西斯通知的埃利亚人,早已经腾出了地方拱戴奥尼亚军队居住。....................................
………………………………On the same day, inLocri, the Syracusearmyassemblesfinally, but the return of mounted scoutmadeDionysiusand the othersbe startled: Used -and-a-half days of time, the Theoniacampto begin to take shapemerely.
就在同一天,在洛克里,锡拉库扎的大军终于集结起来,而侦骑的回报令狄奥尼修斯等人吃惊:仅仅用了一天半时间,戴奥尼亚的营地就已经初具规模了。Thisnewsstrengthenedhimto carry out the newplan: Is divided intotwoparts the army, more than 20,000peopleare commandedbySchiepeSars, joins upwith the Locri more than 10,000soldiers, 40,000people, attemptto attack the Theoniacamp, todivertthem. Buthe himselfleads personally more than 50,000armies, in the ancient road of westernacrossmountain ridges, arrives at the Magna GraeciaWest coast, north shiftsagainmarches......
这个消息更坚定了他执行自己新的计划:将大军分成两部分,其中两万多人由法西佩萨斯统帅,同洛克里的1万多士兵联合起来,共4万人,尝试着进攻戴奥尼亚营地,以牵制住他们。而他自己亲率5万多军队,向西穿过山岭间的古道,到达大希腊的西海岸,再转向北进军……In order topreventto implicate, delaysto march the speed, the Dionysiusarmyhas not carriedlarge quantities ofmilitary baggage, butletsin the Locrifleetfull loadcommodityfrom the harbor, bypasses the Messinachanneltosouth, againalong the Magna GraeciaWest coast, toarmyaccompanying of northernandlandline.
为了防止拖累,延缓进军速度,狄奥尼修斯的军队没有携带大批辎重,而是让在洛克里的船队满载物资从港口出发,向南绕过墨西拿海峡,再沿着大希腊的西海岸,向北与陆上的军队相伴而行。.................................
……………………………When the RhegionpersonsawandSyracuseshipscontinuously when one after anotherrolling by that does not stand stillin the sea level of distant place, the fear in heartcan be imagined, even some people of startledyelling: „The Syracusepersonkilled! Theymustland!!......”
当利吉姆人看到一艘接一艘、连绵不断的锡拉库扎船只在远处的海面不停歇的驶过时,心中的恐惧可想而知,甚至有人惊慌的叫喊:“锡拉库扎人杀来了!他们要登陆啦!!……”Afterwardshowedthisis only a false alarm, buttrulygave the Rhegionpeopleto create very bigpanicat that time, evenat the powwowhasmanycongressmento request: RecallsinTao Ruithatarmy, todefend the landingattack of Syracuseperson.
事后证明这只是一场虚惊,但当时确实给利吉姆民众造成很大的恐慌,甚至议事会中有不少议员要求:调回在陶瑞那的部队,以防御锡拉库扎人的登陆进攻。AdiliKrusedid not have the ideafor a while, immediatelysends out the envoytoTao Ruithat.
阿蒂利克鲁斯一时也没了主意,当即向陶瑞那派出使者。Firstisobtains the mounted scoutto returninTao Ruithatpoorpillar: Discovered that the Syracusearmypasses through the ancient road of ravine, goes forwardto the Medmadirection, has crossed the Medmacityas the cavalry of vanguard, but also is marching forward.
在陶瑞那的菲墩先是得到侦骑回报:发现锡拉库扎大军穿越山间的古道,向麦德玛方向前进,作为前锋的骑兵已经过了麦德玛城,还在继续向前。Then the harborlighthousecomes the urgent report: Discovered the Syracusefleet that over a thousandfreighterscomposeafterTao Rui that navigatesto the north.
接着港口灯塔又来急报:发现上千艘货船组成的锡拉库扎船队经过陶瑞那,向北航行。
After onehour, there areentersTao RuithatharborRhegionmerchant shipincoming telegramfromnorthhurriedly: The Syracusefleethas not enteredMedma, butcontinuestonorth.
一个小时之后,有从北面急匆匆进入陶瑞那港口的利吉姆商船来报:锡拉库扎的船队没有进入麦德玛,而是继续向北。„It seems like the SyracusepreparationattacksTerinatonorth, wenoware temporarily safe.”GeneralKriloTass who Tao Ruithatis responsible forleadingrelaxes.
“看来锡拉库萨准备向北进攻特里纳,我们现在暂时安全。”陶瑞那负责领军的将军克里洛塔斯松了口气。
The look of poor|Feipillarhas not actually seenwith ease, hiscomplexion gloomysaying: „IfnorthsouthintentAllied armieswere defeated, RhegionandTao Ruithatwas attackedissooner or laterissue.”
菲墩的神色却未见轻松,他脸色阴沉的说道:“如果北面的南意盟军被击败,利吉姆、陶瑞那被进攻是早晚的问题。”„Thatmustlook at whether ourallied armiescan resist the attack of Syracuse, evenbeatthem......”KriloTassto be evoked the train of thoughtby the words of poor|Feipillar, saying that hesomewhathoped, thenseemed to think that thishopewas somewhat uncertain, sighs saying: „PitifullyTheoniaarchon Davosleditsprincipal forceto goto resistSamnites! Ifhisefficiencyteamhurries backpromptly, the odds of success of allied armies can also increasemuch!”
“那就要看我们的盟军能否抵挡住锡拉库扎的进攻,甚至击败他们了……”克里洛塔斯被菲墩的话勾起思绪,他有些期盼的说道,接着似乎又觉得这种希望有些渺茫,叹了口气说道:“可惜戴奥尼亚的执政官戴弗斯率领其主力部队前去抵御萨莫奈人了!如果他能率队及时赶回,盟军的胜算还能增加不少!”„ThereforewecannotSyracuseto attacklike thiswith ease!” The poor|Feipillarcomplexionsinksresolute, saidloudly.
“所以我们不能让锡拉库扎人这样轻松的进攻!”菲墩面色沉毅,大声说道。InKriloTassheartis startled.
克里洛塔斯心中一惊。..............................
…………………………In the afternoon, the Rhegionenvoyrushes toTao Rui that requeststo command the armyto returnseverely.
下午,利吉姆的使者赶到陶瑞那,严厉要求菲敦率军返回。poor|Feipillardeliberatelydelays the time, while the urgentfactionreturns toRhegionhand/subordinate.
菲墩一边故意拖延时间,一边紧急派手下返回利吉姆。When the toward evening, the poorpillaris unable to call the soldier, finally„is unable to marchon the grounds ofdarkness”, postponesto the next day.
等到黄昏时分,菲墩仍无法将士兵召集起来,结果以“天黑无法行军”为由,推迟至第二天。Next morning, discovered that the Syracusefleethas leftTao Rui that in the poor|Feipillarnot to squattoAdiliKruse who Rhegionlaunches the attackunderrequest, cancelledorder that recalls the army.
第二天一大早,发现锡拉库扎船队早已离开陶瑞那、并未对利吉姆发动进攻的阿蒂利克鲁斯在菲墩蹲手下的请求下,取消了召回军队的命令。Itholdshisexpressto spreadto return toTao Ruithathand/subordinatefast, stoppedRhegionarmysenselessmarchingback and forth, thisissomething to be talked about later.
其手下持他的急信快速驰返陶瑞那,才制止了利吉姆军队无谓的来回行军,这是后话。.................................
……………………………Onthis day, toletSyracusethishugemixarmypicks up the marching speed, Dionysiusthinksmany means that most effectiveishesends peopleineacharmyto publicize: Whofirstrushes toXibonian, after waitingto break through the enemycity, hewill allowthemfirstto enter a city, but the army that finallyarrives atwill not have shared the spoils of war the right.
在这一天,为了让锡拉库扎这支庞大的混合军队加快行军速度,狄奥尼修斯想了不少办法,最有效的就是他派人到每支部队中去宣扬:谁最先赶到希伯尼安,等攻破敌人城池之后,他将允许他们最先进城,而最后到达的军队将没有分享战利品的权利。Dionysiusarmynotrigid disciplinelike the Theoniaarmy, because the mercenaryare many, tomaintainhighmorale, hisforces soldierfrequentlyafterbreaking throughcity, kills and burnsto plunderin the citywantonly, inTiaso, inSicilyGreececity-stateCataniaandNaxosalsoso. In fact, the destruction of SyracusetoSicilyGreececity-stateis as good asCarthaginians, this is also SicilyGreeksdreadsactuallyhates the Dionysiusreason.狄奥尼修斯的部队不像戴奥尼亚军队那样纪律严明,因为雇佣兵多,为了维持高昂的士气,他的部队士兵常常在攻破城池之后,在城内大肆烧杀抢掠,在摩提亚如此,在西西里希腊城邦的卡塔奈、纳克索斯也如此。事实上,锡拉库扎对西西里希腊城邦的破坏并不亚于迦太基人,这也是西西里希腊人畏惧却又憎恨狄奥尼修斯的原因。
The Dionysiuswordsreallyplay the effect of drive, accelerationvanguard that variousarmiesrush to be first, NummiBiyacavalryandCelticcavalryto/clashesin the forefront.狄奥尼修斯的话果然起到了激励的效果,各支部队争先恐后的加速前行,努米比亚骑兵和凯尔特骑兵则冲在最前面。
