至于曾有传闻“戴奥尼亚也拥有弩炮”,对此他并不太相信,建邦几百年的洛克里都无法制造出这种威力惊人的攻城利器,那个才兴起不到六年的戴奥尼亚联盟怎么可能拥有!(戴奥尼亚第四军团用弩炮攻打克纳佩提亚,由于地处偏僻,所知的人并不多。特里纳人倒是知道,但在戴奥尼亚人的请求下,他们尽力的保守了这个秘密)„Is nearer! Is nearer!......” The Theophantesexcitingceaselessnessurged that the Syracusepersonmoves ahead the crossbowartillery, for this reason the entirearmyis also forwarding. Hemustmake the bombardment of crossbowartillerymore accurate, mustsmash the fence that Theonianbuilds uplaboriously, makingthemshelterless! Hemustthinkthemunder the attack of marbles, startledhidingin all directions, oris forcedto leave the camp, comes outto meet head-on.
“再近些!再近些!……”狄奥潘托斯兴奋的不断催促锡拉库扎人将弩炮前移,为此整支军队也在向前。他要让弩炮的轰击更加精准,要将戴奥尼亚人辛苦建起的围墙砸烂,让他们无处藏身!他要看着他们在石弹的打击下,惊慌的四处躲藏,或者被迫离开营地,出来迎战。AlthoughDionysiusgivesSchiepeSarsandhisorderdiverts the CauloniaTheoniaarmy, but ifthere is a goodopportunity, Theophantesdoes not certainly mindto beatthem, broke the Theoniaarmystillstillnot to have a record of defeatinMagna Graecia, gained a biggerhonorforoneself.
虽然狄奥尼修斯给予法西佩萨斯和他的命令是牵制住考伦尼亚的戴奥尼亚军队,但如果有好的机会,狄奥潘托斯当然不介意击败他们,打破戴奥尼亚军队在大希腊至今尚无一败的记录,为自己获取更大的荣誉。Looks that the frontSyracusecannoneer the heavymarbleswill admit the barrelhopefully, Theophanteslookto the Theoniacamp, thenhenoticed that surprisedlytensmallsunspotsdepartfrom the enemycamp, howlsin a flashis falling into Locri......
看着前方的锡拉库扎炮手又将沉重的石弹放进炮膛,狄奥潘托斯满怀期待的看向戴奥尼亚的营地,然后他惊奇的看到十个小黑点从敌人营地飞出,转瞬间呼啸着落入洛克里阵中……„Crossbowartillery!!” The Theophantesghostbraves, to follow his to call out in alarm, in the teamhas the innumerablepitiful yells.
“弩炮!!”狄奥潘托斯亡魂直冒,伴随他这一声惊呼,队伍中更是发生无数声惨叫。Because the marblespoundto fallby the bigarc, actually the lethalityis not big, but the effectis too astonishing, bumpshandto break, touches the leglegbooklet, meets a flatness, ifkeeps offwith the roundshield, then the shieldbrokenpersonperishes. So periphery the sad scene, howcannot letneverexperience the Locrisoldier who the crossbowartilleryhas attackedto havescared, the moralefellhalfsuddenly.
由于石弹是以较大的弧线砸落,其实杀伤力并不大,但是效果太惊人,碰手手断,碰腿腿折,碰头头扁,如果用圆盾去挡,则盾破人亡。如此惨象,怎能不让周围从未经历过弩炮打击的洛克里士兵心生胆寒,士气骤然降了一半。
When teamjittery, the secondwave of marblesattack of Theoniaarrivesagain, the Locrisoldiersstartledavoidancein all directions, the entireformationbecomeschaotic.
而当队伍正惊慌不安之时,戴奥尼亚的第二波石弹打击再次降临,洛克里士兵们惊慌的四处躲避,整个阵型变得混乱起来。„In the futurewill remove! Will removequicklyin the future!!” The marblesfallunceasingly, fallsnearTheophantes, frightenshim unable to attend to the frontSyracusecrossbowartillery, quicklyissues the order.
“往后撤!快往后撤!!”石弹不断下落,有一颗就落在狄奥潘托斯附近,吓得他顾不得前方的锡拉库扎弩炮,急忙下达命令。
But after retreating the bugle that resounds, Theoniaeastern , western Hsiyingandsouthernthreesuddenlyalsoopen, the soldiers who have been readyhavegushing out of orderrapidly. The cavalrieschargebefore, nextis the light infantry and lightarmor-clad soldier, finallyis a heavy infantry, although the enemy who is doomed unable to catch up withescapes, butcanbring up the rearfor the frontarmy, toprevent the counter-attack of opposite party.
可当撤退的军号响起之后,戴奥尼亚西营的东、西、南三门突然同时打开,早已做好准备的士兵们迅速而有次序的涌出。骑兵冲锋在前,其次是轻步兵、轻甲兵,最后是重步兵,虽然他们注定无法追上逃跑的敌人,但可以为前方部队压阵,以防止对方的反击。Had been pounded the marblesbombardment that fallsto result in the despondency and arraytorn to piecesLocriarmyunceasinglyinchaoticwithdrawing, saw that the Theoniaarmycompletelyleaves, a densepiece( because ofcolor of weaponry), threateningthrowstothem, even ifTheophanteshas a mindto counter-attack, stillhad lost the controlto the army, but the soldiersdid not have the courage of accepting a challenge, rushing to be firstin the futurewill run.
已经被不断砸落的石弹轰击得士气低落、阵列支离破碎的洛克里军队正在乱糟糟的后撤,看到戴奥尼亚全军尽出,黑压压的一片(因为武器装备的颜色),气势汹汹的向他们扑来,狄奥潘托斯即使有心反击,也已经失去了对军队的控制,而士兵们更是没有了应战的勇气,争先恐后的往后跑了。Solikosleads the cavalry, withfor the faith that the allytakes revenge, catches up with the enemyfrom the flank.索伯科斯带领骑兵,怀着为战友复仇的信念,从外侧追上敌人。
The Theoniacavalrydoes not use the lance, buturges on a horsehits, the scattered in disorderrouted troopwill becomemore scattered in disorder, keepingitfromrallying. Afterthese1000cavalrysteamroll, slowing the tempo of warhorsealsoinstinct, Solikossees the frontrouted troopto be gradually sparse, the decisiveholding uplance, from the skydraws a circleunceasingly.戴奥尼亚骑兵也不使用长矛,而是驱马直撞,将本就散乱的溃兵变得更加散乱,使其无法重整。当这一千名骑兵碾压了一阵之后,战马自身也本能的放慢速度,索伯科斯见前方溃兵渐渐稀疏,果断的举起长矛,不断在空中画圈。„Catches up withtowardeastthem!”Solikosshoutsloudly. Underhisdirection, the cavalrystartsto separatetoabout, pulls out an arc, startsto drive awaytoeast the routed troop, the light infantry and lightarmor-clad soldierare also coordinating the action of cavalry.
“把他们往东赶!”索伯科斯大声喊道。在他的指挥下,骑兵开始向左右分开,拉出一条弧线,开始将溃兵向东驱赶,轻步兵、轻甲兵也配合着骑兵的行动。MostLocrirouted trooplikelyheadlessflies, underobligation that in the Theoniasoldierintends, cannot distinguish clearly the east, south, west, and north, onlyescapesin the pressuresmallestdirection.
大部分洛克里溃兵象无头的苍蝇,在戴奥尼亚士兵有意的驱使下,分不清东南西北,只朝着压力最小的方向逃命。Outsidethis timeDongying Unit Syracusealsoin the situation of noprotectionencounters the bombardment of Theoniacrossbowartillery, butexperiencedSyracusepersonnotflurried, secured the positionquickly, after withdrawing a distance, startsalsoto counterattackwith the crossbowartillery, both sidesare at the stalemategeneral, the Locrirouted troopto the tidewells up, immediatelytochaoticleft flank of Syracuseperson.
此时的东营外锡拉库扎也是在毫无防备的情况下遭到戴奥尼亚弩炮的轰击,但是有经验的锡拉库扎人没有慌乱,很快稳住了阵脚,后撤了一段距离之后,开始也用弩炮进行还击,双方正处于对峙状态,洛克里的溃兵向潮水一般的涌来,顿时冲乱了锡拉库扎人的左翼。HowDrakosincampwill let offthisexcellentgood opportunity, immediatelyorders: Armyattack!
在营地里的德拉科斯怎会放过这大好的良机,立刻命令:全军进攻!
The fifthregimentsoldiersran out of the barrack gatequickly.
第五军团士兵们很快冲出了营门。lawSchiepeSarssees the situation is not wonderful, ordereddecisively: Retreating.
法西佩萨斯见情况不妙,果断下令:撤退。
The Syracusearmywithdrawsrapidly, simultaneouslymaintainsis also calculatingwith every effortoverallformation, crude the scattered in disorderLocrirouted troopwill pushinbehind.锡拉库扎军队迅速后撤,同时尽力保持着一个个还算整体的队列,粗暴的将散乱的洛克里溃兵挤在了后面。
The Theoniacavalries and fourthsoldierspursued56li (0.5 km)continually, ridesto meet the approaching enemyuntil the enemies of brigade, Epiphanesorderedto withdraw troopsto return to the camp, was profoundto the Syracuseaggressivecavalryimpressionbecause ofhim, worryexhausted the soldiers who andscatteredsuffered a loss. In fact, the Syracusecavalryandhired the cavalryto go toXibonianwithDionysius, appearedherewas the Locricavalry.戴奥尼亚骑兵和第四的士兵们持续的追击了五六里地,直到大队的敌骑迎击上来,埃皮忒尼斯才下令收兵回营,因为他对锡拉库扎凶悍的骑兵印象深刻,担心已经疲惫而且分散开的士兵们吃亏。实际上,锡拉库扎骑兵和雇佣骑兵早已随着狄奥尼修斯去了希伯尼安,出现在这里的不过是洛克里骑兵而已。Butdoes not have the fifthregiment that the cavalryhelpsunderurging of Drakos, has pursuedto the lightarmor-clad soldierfootleg that runsgoodbecomes tender, sounds the bugle call that withdraws troops.
而没有骑兵帮助的第五军团在德拉科斯的督促之下,一直追到最善跑的轻甲兵都脚腿发软,才吹响收兵的号声。Fleeing pell-mellTheophantesinretreatingto return to the cityon the way, met the first fightunfavorable situation, butmoodunsatisfactorySchiepeSars, suffereditsoneto curse angrily......
丢盔卸甲的狄奥潘托斯在溃退回城的途中,遇到了初战失利而心情不佳的法西佩萨斯,挨了其一顿怒骂……
This is the first time that the Theoniacrossbowartilleryutilizedin the field operation, hitSheroAllied armies one of the knowing nothingto be caught off guard. The crossbowartillerykillsis aboutdozenspeople, actuallycreated the panic of Locriarmy, was the surprise attack of Theoniafourthregimentcreated the condition, but the surprise attack of fourthregiment and experiencedaction of driving awayrouted troop, createdbigretreating of SheroAllied armieslater.
这是戴奥尼亚弩炮第一次运用在野战中,打了毫不知情的锡洛联军一个措手不及。弩炮本身杀伤不过几十人,却造成了洛克里军队的恐慌,为戴奥尼亚第四军团的突袭创造了条件,而第四军团的突袭和随后有经验的驱赶溃兵,造成了希锡洛联军的大溃退。SheroAllied armiesinthisfighthave the casualties of more than 1000people, includes the captured more than 500people, is mainly the Locrisoldier, to the Theoniasouthern linearmy is also a bigvictory.
在这一次的战斗中锡洛联军有1000多人的伤亡,其中还包括被俘虏的500多人,主要是洛克里士兵,对戴奥尼亚南线部队而言也算是一个不小的胜利。.................................
……………………………Late at nightreceivesemergency relief of Terina, Asistesis startled.
深夜接到特里纳的紧急求援,亚西斯特斯大吃一惊。AsistescanbecomeKernerPetija'sgeneration of chief executives, was actually initiallyDavosbyAsisteshasrichlyat the administrativeexperience in Lucaniamountainous area, there is a richmilitaryexperience, suitingholds the post ofKernerPetija- thisis in the majorityon the grounds ofBruttians, isTheoniasouthern citymanager, butstrivestocouncil, becauseheis not a senior statesman, therefore can only byacting the status of chief executivetakes the post, butthere is the experience that is the citychief executive, will be electedto entercouncilto build the foundationforAsistesnext year.亚西斯特斯能成为克纳佩提亚的代行政长官,其实是当初戴弗斯以亚西斯特斯具有丰富的在卢卡尼亚山区的行政经验,又有丰富的军事经验,适合担任克纳佩提亚-这座以布鲁提人居多、又是戴奥尼亚南部边境城市的管理者为由,而向元老院争取来的,由于他不是元老,因此只能以代理行政长官的身份出任,但是有了担任城市行政长官的经验,为亚西斯特斯明年被推选进入元老院打下了基础。
After Asistestakes office, usesin the Lucaniaareastudy the experience, relaxesinKernerPetijacityeffectivelyBruttians and newGreeksracist contradiction, usesKernerPetija'sgeographical position, vigorously developswith the Terinaand othersouthintentallied country of the trade, improvedoriginally the living condition of destituteKernerPetijaperson, makingKernerPetijafor these years the political situationstable, has not disappointed the expectation of Davos.亚西斯特斯上任之后,利用在卢卡尼亚地区学来的经验,有效的缓和克纳佩提亚城内布鲁提人与新来的希腊人的种族矛盾,利用克纳佩提亚的地理位置,大力发展与特里纳等南意盟邦的贸易往来,改善了原本穷困的克纳佩提亚人的生活条件,使得克纳佩提亚这几年政局稳定,没有辜负戴弗斯的期望。At this time, „the Syracusepersonin such a short timeapproachedTerina” the newsmakesinhisheartveryanxious. Regarding the combat plan of southintentUnion, hequiteunderstands: Terina, CrotoneandScylletiumdefend the West coastchannelwith joint forces, preventing the Syracusearmyto invadesouthintentUnionterritory, is the full power of Theoniaprincipal forcehurries backwins the time.
此时,“锡拉库扎人在这么短的时间内就逼近了特里纳”的消息让他的心中非常不安。对于南意同盟的作战计划,他是比较了解的:特里纳、克罗托内、西里庭合力防御西海岸通道,阻止锡拉库扎军队侵入南意同盟领地,为戴奥尼亚主力部队的全力赶回赢取时间。Originally, in the Asistesheartestimated: Crotone, Scylletium and Terinathreecity-statecitizensoldiersaddto have more than 30,000peoplefully, in additionhas the riverbreadthandriver bottomdeepAmato riverthisnaturalbarrier, defending for more than tenand20daysshouldnot be the majorproblem. Once the later periodresorts to arms the preparationsoldier in anxious, entireBruttiiarea can also provide the helptimely.
原先,亚西斯特斯心中估计:克罗托内、西里庭、特里纳三个城邦的公民兵加起来足有3万多人,再加上有河面宽、河底深的拉马托河这道天然的屏障,稳守十几、二十天应该不是大问题。而且一旦后期用兵紧张,整个布鲁提地区的预备士兵还可以及时提供帮助。Howeverhehas not thought that the Syracusepersonwill comesuchrapidness, has far exceeded the speed that mostGreekcity-statearmiesmobilized, assembleandmarch. NaturallySyracusearmyitself/Benalreadymobilization assembly, butcanmake the sohugearmycompletefromlandingin three daysapproachesTerinatomarching, sufficientlyobviouslyfullanddeterminationbig of thatSicilydictatorDionysiusthiswar preparations!
但是他没想到锡拉库扎人会来得如此之快,已经远远超出了大多数希腊城邦军队动员、集结和行军的速度。当然锡拉库扎大军本就是已经动员集结好的,但是能够让如此庞大的军队在三天内完成从登陆到行军逼近特里纳,足以可见那位西西里独裁者狄奥尼修斯这次战争准备的充分和决心之大!Dispatches troopsto aid? Asisteshesitates , because severaldays ago Davoswritestohimpersonally, remindedhimin the letter/believesover and over: Mustreinforcecity garrison, enhancementdefense, once the Syracusepersonbreaks throughline of defense, hemustwantcompletelyall means that to defendKernerPetija, can not Syracuseto step into the Bruttiiterritoryhalfstep!
出不出兵援助?亚西斯特斯之所以犹豫,是因为几天前戴弗斯亲自给他写了封信,在信中再三提醒他:要加固城防,增强防御,一旦锡拉库扎人突破防线,他必须想尽一切办法,守住克纳佩提亚,不得让锡拉库扎人踏入布鲁提领地半步!ButTerinaandTheoniarelateclosely! Not to mentiontheyinsouthintentUnionresolute supporttoTheonia, moreoverKernerPetijaandTerinatwocities, becauseis in close proximity, the tradeis frequent, the relationsare togetheris very good. Ifsees somebody in danger and does nothing, onlyfeared that will destroy the Terinapersonto the goodimpression of Theonia, will destroyTheoniaalliance for severalyearsafter the effort, butsets upinMagna Graeciagoodbusiness!
可是特里纳与戴奥尼亚关系密切啊!且不说他们在南意同盟中对戴奥尼亚的坚定支持,而且克纳佩提亚与特里纳两城因为相距很近,贸易往来频繁,关系相处的很好。如果一旦见死不救,只怕会破坏特里纳人对戴奥尼亚的良好印象,也将破坏戴奥尼亚联盟几年来经过努力而在大希腊树立起来的的良好生意!Asistesponders over, finallysets firm resolve.亚西斯特斯思前想后,终于下定了决心。Hisenvoyto the Terinamakes the commitment: Hades on, heleads personallyKernerPetijaReinforcementsto rush toTerinaearly tomorrow morning!
他对特里纳的使者做出承诺:哈迪斯在上,他明天一早就亲率克纳佩提亚援军赶往特里纳!
After packing offgratitudeenvoyextremely, Asistesdecided that justtook officeHielos of Cosenzachief executiveto write a letter, tellshim the newtrendas well asownworry of Syracusearmy, andrequests reinforcementstohim. Hebelieves that thisDavospastteam leaderwill make the correctchoice!
送走感激万分的使者之后,亚西斯特斯决定给刚上任科森扎行政长官的希洛斯写一封信,告诉他锡拉库扎大军的新动向以及自己的担心,并向他求援。他相信这位戴弗斯昔日的队长会做出正确的选择!
After finishing, hemade the trusted aidebring the letterhand/subordinateimmediately, the starry nightrushed toCosenza. Then, called the patrolteam leader who justwent to sleep, makinghiminform the preparationsoldiers of fifthregimentto arrive at the squaresetearly tomorrow morning.
写完后,他让心腹手下带着信件立即出发,星夜赶往科森扎。接着,又叫来刚刚睡下的巡逻队长,让他明天一早就通知第五军团的预备士兵到广场集合。Completesthese, Asistesreturns toownbedroomexhausted.
做完这些事后,亚西斯特斯才身心疲惫的回到自己的卧房。His wifeDinahas not rested, sees the husbandto be worried, caresaskedinGreek: „What happened?”
他的妻子蒂娜还没有睡,看出丈夫心事重重,就关心的用希腊语问道:“发生了什么事?”
