„Who said that I amn't willing to dispatch troops?!” Terry Yaaz quickly changed a statement, sets out to hold on him: „Messenger did not say, must wait for the naval battle victory the news. You look......” “谁说我不愿出兵了？！”特里斐亚斯急忙改口,起身拉住他:“信使不是说了嘛,要等海战胜利的消息。你看……” Terry Yaaz said to the Matonis analysis patiently: „Once the naval battle wins, delivers a letter from the land route is definitely impossible, during the daytime the Taranto cavalry patrols in the south, your messengers are unable to come...... in other words, saw that the Theonia fleet catches up from the sea, we can dispatch troops.” When the time comes the general situation has decided that Terry Yaaz why not. 特里斐亚斯耐心的给马托尼斯分析道:“一旦海战获胜,从陆路送信肯定是不可能了,白天塔兰图姆的骑兵就在南面游弋,你们的信使根本无法过来……也就是说,看到戴奥尼亚的舰队从海上赶来,我们才可以出兵。”到时候大局已定,特里斐亚斯何乐而不为。 Who knows, Matonis shakes the head saying: „Your this suggestion is not good, was too slow! The Taranto fleet blockaded the Heraclea harbor, they first will certainly obtain the news. When our fleets catch up to act again, the Taranto people outside city ran early! Therefore-” 谁知,马托尼斯摇头说道:“你这个建议不行,太慢了！塔兰图姆的舰队封锁了赫拉克利亚港口,他们肯定会最先得到消息。等到我们的舰队赶来再行动,城外的塔兰图姆人早跑了！所以-” Matonis stares Terry Yaaz, the sinking sound was saying: „We must monitor the hostile camp outside city closely, once the Taranto person wants to retreat, we attack immediately!” 马托尼斯瞪着特里斐亚斯,沉声说道:“我们要密切监视城外的敌营,一旦塔兰图姆人想要撤退,我们就立即出击！” „?!” “啊？！” ....................................... ………………………………… Convinced Terry Yaaz, returning to Matonis of square to tell immediately the adjutant convenes the chiefs of seventh regiment to big tent/account discussing official business( the camps of seventh regiment construct in the Heraclea square). 说服了特里斐亚斯,回到广场的马托尼斯立即吩咐副官招集第七军团的大队长们到大帐议事(第七军团的营地建在赫拉克利亚的广场上)。 After a while, seven chiefs caught up. 过了一会儿,七位大队长都赶来了。 Matonis has not waited for them to sit down, said directly: „Time is very tight, I made a long story short, Davos your majesty led first and second regiments to return to Thurii-” 马托尼斯没等他们坐下,就直接说道:“时间很紧,我就长话短说了,戴弗斯陛下带领第一、二军团返回了图里伊-” „, Sir Davos came back!” “啊,戴弗斯大人回来了！” „Good, Amendolara could be saved!” “太好了,阿门多拉腊有救了！” „Not is only Amendolara can be saved, the Taranto person must be finished! Sir Davos will lead us to defeat them!” “岂止是阿门多拉腊有救,塔兰图姆人也要完蛋了！戴弗斯大人会带领我们将他们击败的！” ...... …… Several chiefs shouted loudly, was excited dances with joy. 几位大队长大喊大叫,兴奋得手舞足蹈。 „Shuts up to me!” Matonis angrily roars, frightens their whole body to shake: „Your several were the veterans, should know that «Theonian Military Law» stipulation, when the higher authority admonished what does the subordinate talk back will receive to punish?!” “都给我闭嘴！”马托尼斯一声怒吼,吓得他们浑身一抖:“你们几个都是老兵了,应该知道《戴奥尼亚军法》的规定,上级训话时下级顶嘴会受到什么责罚？！” Matonis wicked is staring them, several chief subconscious tracing buttocks of: „The matter of stick responsibility I first remembered, then must look at your performance. Davos your majesty transmits the order, today he will command the army to catch up from the sea route, in coastal landing between Heraclea and Metapontum, requesting us to go all-out to constrain the enemy outside city, so that the principal force will be able to rush promptly, will annihilate the Taranto person together with joint forces! Got it?!” 马托尼斯恶狠狠的瞪着他们,几位大队长下意识的摸了摸屁股:“杖责的事儿我先记下了,接下来要看你们的表现。戴弗斯陛下传来命令,今天他将率军从海路赶来,将在赫拉克利亚与梅塔蓬图姆之间的海岸登陆,要求我们尽全力拖住城外的敌人,以便主力部队及时赶到,一起合力围歼塔兰图姆人！明白了吗？！” „Understood!” Several chiefs do not dare to randomly call shout randomly, but can be seen in speech and appearance excitedly. “明白！”几位大队长再也不敢乱叫乱嚷,但兴奋溢于言表。 Matonis walked slowly and aimlessly back and forth several steps before them, then makes an effort stamps the feet: „I know because over the two days my strict order soldier can not go out of town to drive away in the Amendolara enemy, in the regiment many soldiers are scolding me in secret, said that ‚I am the timid rabbit, the spiritless lamb, does not match, when legatus!’, Even some people also scolded my parents!......” 马托尼斯在他们面前来回踱了几步,然后用力的一跺脚:“我知道这两天因为我严令士兵不得出城去驱赶在阿门多拉腊的敌人,军团中很多士兵私下里都在骂我,说‘我是胆小的兔子,懦弱的羔羊,根本不配当军团长！’,甚至有的人还骂起了我的父母！……” Roaring of Matonis makes the chiefs keep silent: „I know that in the regiment has some soldiers to come from Amendolara, but this should not become them to insult the reason of senior official, ‚soldier takes the command prompt as the responsibility.’ This is the basic provision in military law, these scolded my soldier me to take down in private, you went back to tell them, in this attack, if they displayed did not have me to be fierce, attacking did not have me to be quick, then they had what qualifications to scold me!” 马托尼斯的怒吼让大队长们噤若寒蝉:“我知道军团中有一些士兵来自阿门多拉腊,但这不应该成为他们辱骂长官的理由,‘士兵以服从命令为职责。’这是军法中的基本规定,这些私下骂我的士兵我都记下了,你们回去告诉他们,在这一次的进攻中,如果他们表现得还没有我勇猛,突击得还没有我快,那么他们有什么资格骂我！” Matonis stared the circle the eyes, is breathing heavily, like an angry bull: „That after the war ended, I will make them punish by forcing to stand in the square, and makes the people of army group come up to scold their family in turn! Do you understand?!” 马托尼斯瞪圆了双眼,喘着粗气,像一头愤怒的公牛:“那么在战争结束以后,我会让他们在广场罚站,并让全军团的人依次上去骂他们全家！你们明白吗？！” „Bright...... understood.” “明……明白了。” „Goes back to prepare quickly!” “快回去准备吧！” „Yes!” “是！” After the chiefs leave, adjutant cautious saying of: „Sir legatus, you do this to be able-” 等大队长们离开之后,副官小心翼翼的说道:“军团长大人,你这样做会不会-” „What meets?!” Matonis stares the eye, snort/hum: „Such must equip not to equip and want the discipline not to have the new regiment of strict discipline, if not stir up them like this, how they will have the good showing!” “会什么？！”马托尼斯把眼一瞪,哼了一声:“就这样一支要装备没好装备、要纪律没严格纪律的新军团,如果不这样激一激他们,他们怎么会有好的表现！” ....................................... ………………………………… In the afternoon, an express steamer drives near Agri rapidly. 午后,一艘快船急速驶近阿格里河。 „What did you say?! The Syracuse navy was defeated, how is this possible?!” Two Taranto archon unbelievable calling out in alarm. “你说什么？！锡拉库扎海军被打败了,这怎么可能？！”两位塔兰图姆执政官难以置信的惊呼。 „Has other city-state fleet to join the fight, helped Theonian?!” Umakas also asked busily. “是不是有别的城邦的舰队加入战斗,帮助了戴奥尼亚人？！”攸马卡斯忙又问道。 „No, from beginning to end is the Theonia fleet is fighting independently, they placed a wooden bridge on the warship, can flutter tin Lacour to explode the warship of person, the scene that then before sending lots of soldiers to clash the upper deck......” express steamer captain recalls, is seeing, now also just like in the dream general, the mode of operations of Theonia fleet subverts the traditional naval battle that he received since childhood to gradually influence completely. “没有,从头至尾都是戴奥尼亚舰队在独立战斗,他们在战船上安置了一种木桥,可以勾住锡拉库炸人的战船,然后派大量的士兵冲上甲板……”快船船长回忆着之前看到的场景,现在还犹如在梦中一般,戴奥尼亚舰队的作战方式完全颠覆了他从小所受到的传统海战熏陶。 Diaomilas was in a daze the long time, thought of an essential issue: „Does the Theonia fleet lose seriously?” 戴奥密拉斯发呆了半晌,想到了一个关键的问题:“戴奥尼亚舰队损失惨重吗？” The captain shakes the head saying: „Probably their fleet losses are not big.” 船长摇头说道:“好像他们的舰队损失不大。” „Is Hades really blessing these barbaric uncouthly Theonian?!” A Diaomilas face is astonished, looks sad, he somewhat absent-minded looks to Umakas. “难道哈迪斯真的在保佑这些野蛮粗鲁的戴奥尼亚人吗？！”戴奥密拉斯一脸惊异,却又神情沮丧,他有些恍惚的看向攸马卡斯。 Umakas is also visiting him. 攸马卡斯也在看他。 In two people of eyes is full of the scared look, because they know: Once the Syracuse navy advantage were broken, making the Theonian fleet control Taranto bay, is unable to resist with it by the strength of Taranto fleet alone, the Taranto coastline will be under the threat of Theonia fleet, then their far away from the army of Taranto city may on the danger. 两人眼中都充满惧色,因为他俩都知道:一旦锡拉库扎的海军优势被打破,让戴奥尼亚人的舰队控制了塔兰托海湾,以塔兰图姆舰队的实力根本无法单独与之对抗,塔兰图姆的海岸线将受到戴奥尼亚舰队的威胁,那么他们这支远离塔兰图姆城的军队可就危险了。 Two people are almost shouting with one voice: „We must retreat immediately!” 两人几乎是异口同声的喊道:“我们必须立刻撤退！” For does not bring to the attention of Heraclea person, they draw on the team officers quietly, issued the order of retreating to them. 为了不引起赫拉克利亚人的注意,他俩悄悄招来队官们,向他们下达了撤退的命令。 The Taranto soldier starts to tidy up the goods, the pack travel bag. 塔兰图姆士兵开始收拾物品,打包行囊。 Those who most made two archon headaches was in the camp piles up the grain that. Initially to guarantee the food supply convenience, the Taranto person shipped in food with the freighter, piled up in the camp, to supply 20,000 people of huge army more than ten days of uses, now suddenly must retreat, this became the difficult problem. 最令两位执政官头痛的是营地里堆积如山的谷物。当初为了保证粮食供应便利,塔兰图姆人用货船将食物运来,堆放在营地里,以供两万人的庞大军队十几天的使用,现在突然要撤退,这就成了难题。 Taranto without specifically is responsible for the department of administrative shipping, because considering this time is the offshore operation, Taranto would have no to consider to hire the labor force from the land transportation, the commodity transports from the sea route, at this moment must send the express steamer to hurry back to inform the Taranto harbor again, convened the freighter to catch up to transport also too costs the time. But so many grain and commodities, their you do not dare easily to burn down or discard, because wastes the city-state commodity the behavior definitely to be impeached by council at will. 塔兰图姆没有专门负责后勤运输的部门,由于考虑到这一次是近海作战,塔兰图姆就没有考虑雇佣劳力从陆地运输,物资都是从海路运输的,此刻要再派快船赶回去通知塔兰图姆港口,召集货船赶来运输也太耗费时间了。可是这么多的粮食和物资,他们攸不敢轻易的焚毁或者丢弃,因为随意浪费城邦物资的行为必然会遭到元老院弹劾。 Therefore, Diaomilas offers advice: Let some soldiers shoulder the commodity from the land transport Metapontum, simultaneously the Taranto fleet of sea level cruise near Heraclea will still incur to come back, loads the grain in the cabin on ship, transports Taranto. 于是,戴奥密拉斯出了个主意:让部分士兵背负物资从陆路运输到梅塔蓬图姆,同时将还在赫拉克利亚附近海面巡航的塔兰图姆舰队招回来,将粮食装载在船上的舱室里,运送回塔兰图姆。 „If by some chance the enemies in city come out to attack us, what to do?” Some Umakas worries. “万一城里的敌人出来进攻我们,怎么办？”攸马卡斯有些担心。 „These timid Heraclea and Theonia soldier has withdrawn for serveral days in the city, I do not think that they suddenly had the guts to dare to go out of town on own initiative the attack, when they know when news that the Theonia fleet won, we have returned to Metapontum.” In fact, Diaomilas according to experience of Greeks tradition combat, even does not think that Theonia army after ending an intense naval battle, can initiate immediately to the rescue of Heraclea. “这些胆小的赫拉克利亚和戴奥尼亚士兵这些天一直龟缩在城内,我不认为他们突然就有了胆量敢主动出城进攻,等他们知道戴奥尼亚舰队获胜的消息时,我们早已经回到梅塔蓬图姆了。”事实上,戴奥密拉斯根据希腊人传统作战的经验,甚至不认为戴奥尼亚军队在结束了一场激烈的海战之后,就能马上发起对赫拉克利亚的救援。 However in the past the Theonia regiment to the impression of Diaomilas was too deep in a performance with Messapi-Peuceti alliance war, he must carefully for wonderful, after all this Taranto army almost built up all Taranto young adults citizens, may be unable to accommodate an accident. Therefore Diaomilas does not think although retreating of Taranto army has the danger, but arranges 4000 soldiers to be the guard. 但是当年戴奥尼亚军团在与梅普联军一战中的表现给戴奥密拉斯的印象太深,他必须小心为妙,毕竟这支塔兰图姆军队几乎集结了所有的塔兰图姆青壮年公民,可容不得一点闪失。所以尽管戴奥密拉斯并不认为塔兰图姆军队的撤退存在危险,但还是安排四千名士兵担任后卫。 For not noticeable, the Taranto army has not even disassembled the tent. 为了不引人注目,塔兰图姆军队甚至没有拆卸帐篷。 But even so, the retreating action of Taranto army, was still dilatory and slow, rarely the Taranto person of training impossible „to retreat army” like Theonia makes a special training project, to separate 78 days on training one time, can therefore achieve rapidly, division of labor to be quickly and explicit and systematic. 但即使这样,塔兰图姆军队的撤退行动,仍然是拖沓而缓慢的,很少训练的塔兰图姆人不可能像戴奥尼亚一样把“军队撤退”做出一个专门的训练项目、隔个七八天就训练一次,因此能够做到快捷、迅速、分工明确、井然有序。 The Taranto person thinks can hide the truth from Heraclea, actually without thinking of the Theonia seventh regiment has expected them to retreat, has monitored in the top closely, some signs were soon found by them, for example: Before the camps, patrols the cavalry of patrol no longer to appear, in the camp spreads very big noise, the warship enters Agri frequently...... wait/etc. 塔兰图姆人自以为能瞒住赫拉克利亚,却没想到戴奥尼亚第七军团早就料到他们会撤退,一直在城头密切监视,一些迹象很快就被他们发现,比如:营地前游弋巡逻的骑兵不再出现,营地里传出很大的噪音,战船频繁进入阿格里河……等等。 „Matonis legatus!” Terry Yaaz at this moment also exciting asking: „It seems like the enemy is really retreating,...... did your fleets really defeat the Syracuse person?!” “马托尼斯军团长！”特里斐亚斯此刻也兴奋的问道:“看来敌人真的在撤退,难道……难道你们的舰队真的战胜了锡拉库扎人？！” „I have said that Davos your majesty is always lives up to one's words!” Matonis looked at his one eyes, coldly retaliates. “我已经说过,戴弗斯陛下从来都是说到做到的！”马托尼斯看了他一眼,冷冷回敬。 „Right that you said!” Terry Yaaz has not cared about the Matonis attitude , to continue exciting asking: „Were we now this/should attack?!” “你说的对！”特里斐亚斯没有在意马托尼斯的态度,继续兴奋的问道:“我们现在是不是该进攻了？！” Matonis double is hand-held the embattlement, calm saying: „No rush, waits again.” 马托尼斯双手扶着城垛,冷静的说道:“别急,再等一等。” „Also can wait?” “还要等？” „Right, waits for the Taranto soldier to be all about to leave, when they have started to cross river......” in the Matonis eye is glittering the cold light, like wolf that a preparation throws the food. “对,等塔兰图姆士兵全都准备离开,等他们已经开始过河的时候……”马托尼斯眼中闪烁着寒光,像一匹准备扑食的狼。 ....................................... ………………………………… Diaomilas is gazing at the soldiers through the bateau-bridge, in the heart a sound the urging of keeping: Is quicker! Is quicker!...... 戴奥密拉斯注视着士兵们在通过浮桥,心中一个声音在不停的催促:再快些！再快些！…… Saw that teams of soldiers arrived at the opposite shores and other soldiers through these bateau-bridges also when rapid follow-up, Diaomilas relaxed slightly. 看到一队队士兵通过这几座浮桥到达了对岸、其他士兵也在迅速跟进时,戴奥密拉斯略微放松了些。 Actually at this time, outside the camp erupted the earth-shaking slogan suddenly, his heart sank to fall immediately: Awful, definitely was the enemies in Heraclea city goes out of town! 却在这时,营地外突然爆发出惊天动地般的呐喊声,他的心顿时沉坠下去:糟糕,肯定是赫拉克利亚城里的敌军出城了！
