Persians was ready that the defense mercenaries attacked, afterward discovered gradually, the route that the mercenaries run impressively is nearby mountain peak, immediately in great surprise, realized they made a mistake, later also gathering team, to nearby mountain peak rapid march...... 波斯人原来做好了防御雇佣军进攻的准备,后来渐渐发现,雇佣军奔跑的路线赫然是旁边的山峰,当即大惊,意识到他们犯了一个错误,随后也集合队伍,向旁边的山峰急行军…… At this time, the Tissaphernes army has approached the mountain road junction, but the mercenaries formation near the mountain road junction, the transportation battalion and wounded person were centralized in the rear area, is very near from that mountain ridge that Persians occupied. If release arrow of Persians on the mountain ridge, can shoot their army edge full power. However at this moment, these Persians and Xenophon army spins toward the summit from two directions simultaneously...... 这时,蒂萨弗尼斯的大军已经逼近山道口,而雇佣军则在山道口附近列阵,辎重营和伤员们都集中在后方,距离波斯人所占据的那座山岭已经很近了。如果波斯人在山岭上全力放箭,堪堪能射到他们军阵的边缘。但是此刻,这些波斯人和色诺芬的部队都同时从两个方向朝山巅急奔…… ....................................... ………………………………… „Raises up shield!” “竖起盾阵！” „Stone soldier prepares!” “投石兵准备！” „Archer prepares!” “弓箭手准备！” The leaders look dignified, issue the order to oneself army loudly. In a mercenaries front, Persians like the tide approaches at the same time, slowly launches the array...... 首领们神情凝重,大声对自己的部队下达命令。在雇佣军阵的前方,波斯人象潮水一样逼近的同时,慢慢展开阵列…… ....................................... ………………………………… „Quickly! Quickly! The brothers insist, you are competing for your survivals! In this moment several plus one strength, after can let us, marches is more relaxed, exempts many troublesome fights!” Xenophon takes the lead in leading the army to climb a mountain, while inflates to them. “快！快！兄弟们坚持住,你们正在为你们的生存而竞赛！在这一刻多加一把力,便可让我们以后行军更加轻松,免去很多麻烦的战斗！”色诺芬一边带头引领部队爬山,一边给他们打气。 When to mountainside, the soldiers obviously felt the muscle is sore, the breathing rapidly and speed slow down, may see summit side Persians when handling the same matter, a sense of urgency urges them not to dare to be lax. 到了山腰时,士兵们明显感到肌肉酸痛、呼吸急促、速度减缓,可看到山顶侧面的波斯人在做同样的事情时,一种紧迫感促使他们不敢松懈。 Although Persians is near from the summit, but their one side mountain roads are steep, what does not walk like the mercenaries is the gentle slope of back side of the mountain. 波斯人虽距离山巅较近,可他们所处的这一侧山路陡峭,不像雇佣军走的是后山的缓坡。 In both armies „mountaineering competition”, Greeks smiled finally. They first mounted the summit, does not attend to wearily, immediately to climbing Persians javelin throw and stone. 在两军的“登山竞赛”中,希腊人笑到了最后。他们抢先登上了山巅,不顾疲劳,立即向正在攀登的波斯人投掷标枪和石块。 Persians turn tail, even the original position also abandoned, has run up to the foot...... 波斯人转身逃跑,甚至连原先的阵地也抛弃了,一直跑到山脚…… ....................................... ………………………………… The long-distance attack of Tissaphernes is still continuing, although the casualties of his army are increasing unceasingly, he still did not issue the instruction that retreats, this makes the mercenaries feel that the pressure is very big, when they support by strenuous efforts, scout cavalry caught up to report saying: Xenophon sent out the information, they have seized the mountain ridge, expelled Persians! 蒂萨弗尼斯的远程攻击还在持续,尽管他部队的伤亡不断在增加,他仍然不下达撤退的指令,这让雇佣军感到压力很大,就在他们苦苦支撑的时候,侦查骑兵赶来汇报说:色诺芬发出了信息,他们已占领了山岭,赶走了波斯人！ „Retreats!” Guest Lysippos relaxes. “撤退！”客里索普斯松了口气。 Therefore, the mercenaries start orderly retreats...... 于是,雇佣军开始有秩序的撤退…… The Persia army presses on step by step...... 波斯军队步步紧逼…… When the mercenaries draw back into the mountain road completely, but also after follow-up Persians enters the attack range of Unit Xenophon, encounters on the summit the whip, but below the powerful attack of stone and javelin, just now sounds the bugle that retreats...... 当雇佣军全部退入山道,还在跟进的波斯人进入色诺芬的攻击范围后,遭到山巅上急坠而下的石块、标枪的强力打击,方才吹响撤退的号角…… .................................... ……………………………… The mercenaries walk the mountain road, enters together the plain. Here has many villages, the mercenaries start to pitch camp, treat and cure the wounded person, and massive supplement provisions, because the guides said: Carduchia mountainous area in front. Therefore, the leaders held an important conference. 雇佣军走完山道,进入一块平原。这里有不少村庄,雇佣军开始扎营,救治伤员,并且大量的补充给养,因为向导们都说:杜客亚山区就在前面。为此,首领们召开了一次重要的会议。 „Our Greeks revolts against Persia, Carduchians also revolts against Persia. According to the guides Persians once sent out approximately 100,000 people of armies to attack Duke, the result rout turns over. Since we and Carduchians have a grudge with Persia, then we and Carduchians should be able friendly to be together, moreover we encroach upon to go to Armenia, will not have any infringement to Carduchians, so long as we send out the envoy, expressed our peace wishes to them, believes that they will certainly accept!......” Xenophon spoke with confidence, after these days disciplining, he was even more self-confident. “我们希腊人反抗波斯,杜客亚人也反抗波斯。据向导们说波斯人曾派出约十万人的部队攻伐杜克亚,结果大败而归。既然我们与杜客亚人都是跟波斯有仇,那么我们和杜客亚人应该可以友好相处,而且我们只是借道去亚美尼亚,不会对杜客亚人有任何侵犯,只要我们派出使者,向他们表达我们的和平意愿,相信他们一定会接受！……”色诺芬侃侃而谈,经过这段时间的磨练,他越发自信了。 „Friendly is together? Easy that said!” Timasion snorts contemptuously, he somewhat cannot get used to seeing making widely known of Xenophon, Davos, is Xenophon not only young and ability is outstanding, the point reveals, causes some such as Kerry Hanno, Timasion and other senior soldier of fortune's envy and some are discontented: „Over ten thousand people of armies since own territory, and has defeated the Persians army repeatedly, doesn't Carduchians meet anxiously?! Meets is not afraid?! I do not believe!...... You said you through Carduchia, but you pass through knockoff and inhabit region by some chance time launches the attack, this price was too big, does Carduchians dare to take risk? Must know that Carduchians is aggressive, even territory general, and surrounds it in Persia is afraid, how also to agree to the request from thousand li (500 km)?!” “友好相处？说的容易！”提马宋嗤之以鼻,他有些看不惯色诺芬的张扬,无论是戴弗斯,还是色诺芬既年轻又能力突出,锋芒太露,引得一些如克里安诺、提马宋等老雇佣兵的嫉妒和些许不满:“上万人的军队进入自己的领地,而且还是多次打败过波斯人的军队,杜客亚人会不紧张？！会不害怕？！我不信！哦……你说你只是通过杜客亚,可万一你经过山寨和聚居地的时候发动攻击,这个代价就太大了,杜客亚人敢冒这个险吗？要知道杜客亚人凶悍野蛮,连领土广大、并且将它包围在其中的波斯都害怕,又怎会同意来自千里之外的我们的要求呢？！” The Timasion words just said, Kerry Hanno then said: „Couple days ago my soldiers captured several Persians Carduchia slaves, finds after the inquiry, ‚Carduchians’ is only Persians to an inhabitant's name that this mountain area occupies, actually in Duke Yashan area has many tribes and different races, they slaughter for the benefit mutual battle of tribe frequently, some tribes even are the dead enmity. The present issue is-, even if we can obtain an agreement of tribe, just crossed several mountains, may be attacked by another tribe, if we take a tribe and a tribe negotiated, the time towed is too long, we must starve. Must know that the Carduchia mountainous area is arid and barren, the deficient food area!” 提马宋的话刚说完,克里安诺接着说道:“前几天我的士兵们抓获了几个波斯人的杜客亚奴隶,经过询问了解到,‘杜客亚人’只是波斯人对这片山区所居住的山里人的一个称呼,其实杜克亚山区里有很多的部落、不同的种族,他们经常为了部落的利益相互争斗厮杀,有的部落甚至是死仇。现在的问题是-即使我们能获得一个部落的同意,刚翻过几座山,可能就会遭到另一个部落的攻击,如果我们要一个部落、一个部落的去谈判,时间拖太长,我们就要挨饿了。要知道杜客亚山区是个土地贫瘠、缺乏食物的地区！” „It seems like rushed hardly!” Hieronymus at this moment harsh saying of rare speech: „After we enter Carduchia, does not encroach upon others on own initiative, but if some people dare to encroach upon us, that must give him fierce!” “看来只有硬闯了！”难得说话的希罗尼穆斯此刻语气强硬的说道:“我们进入杜客亚后,不主动侵犯别人,可要是有人敢来侵犯我们,那就要给他一个厉害！” „When the time comes, has not known that is who gives who is fierce looks!” Xanticles helpless saying: „Before Persians occupied the mountain ridge to make very big trouble to us, that was also only several mountains! After entering Carduchia , is the mountain, most of us are the heavy infantries, many military baggage, marched difficultly, goes to war not to mention. Carduchians is familiar with the terrain, the mountain climbing is the skill that they exercise since childhood, but we can only depend on the guide. The mountain road is narrow, perhaps our teams can only arrange becomes long, Carduchians can emit to attack us from any place, but we take them not to have the means......” the Xanticles words to make the people fall into silent. “到时候,还不知道是谁给谁厉害看呢！”赞提帕里斯无奈的说道:“之前波斯人占据山岭就给我们造成了很大的麻烦,那还只是几座山而已！进入杜客亚后全是山,我们大多是重步兵,还有很多辎重,行军都困难,更别提打仗了。杜客亚人对地形熟悉,爬山更是他们从小就练就的本事,而我们只能靠向导。山路狭窄,我们的队伍恐怕只能排成长长的一路,杜客亚人可以从任何地方冒出来袭击我们,而我们却拿他们毫无办法……”赞提帕里斯的一番话让众人陷入沉默。 Xenophon seized the chance to say one: „Therefore can negotiate with Carduchians?” 色诺芬趁机说了一句:“所以还是要跟杜客亚人谈判啊？” Everyone has not managed him, looks at the vision to guest Lysippos. 大家没有理他,都把目光看向客里索普斯。 Guest Lysippos actually looks Davos that in the corner had not spoken, asked: „Captain Davos, your view?” 客里索普斯却看着角落里一直未说话的戴弗斯,问道:“戴弗斯首领,你的看法呢？” Davos shows a faint smile, said slowly: „Listened to everyone's words a moment ago, actually sums up is two opinions. First, negotiated with Carduchians, the merit was safe, the shortcoming was time-consuming are too many, Carduchians may not agree ; Second, rushes hardly, the merit is time-saving, the shortcoming is the casualties is big. Then, why don't we gather to turn into means these two opinions?” 戴弗斯微微一笑,缓缓说道:“刚才听了大家的话,其实归纳起来就是两种意见。一是与杜客亚人谈判,优点是安全,缺点是耗时太多,杜客亚人可能会不同意;二是硬闯,优点是省时,缺点是伤亡大。那么,为什么我们不把这两种意见合起来变成一个办法呢？” Turns into means? The people look at each other in blank dismay, guest Lysippos was also ignorant. 变成一个办法？众人面面相觑,客里索普斯也懵了。 Nearby Philesius sees their expressions, in the heart secretly funny: Actually, last night the team officers of Davos military compound had discussed this matter, when Davos said his means that people with astonishment in his idea unusual at the same time, has to acknowledge the possibility that this means realized was very big. Now he facing leader, in the heart raises unavoidably a superiority feeling. 旁边的斐利修斯看到他们的表情,心中暗自好笑:其实,昨夜戴弗斯军营的队官们就讨论过这件事,当戴弗斯说出他的办法时,众人惊愕于他想法奇特的同时,也不得不承认这办法实现的可能性很大。现在他面对诸位首领,心中不免升起一种优越感。 The people asked as if by prior agreement: „How changes?” 众人不约而同地问道:“怎么变？” „Looks for a tribe, cooperates with them, making them lead the way for us!” Davos stuns the world. “找一个部落,和他们合作,让他们为我们开路！”戴弗斯语出惊人。 The people gawked. 众人愣了。 Xenophon first responded: „Davos, is your meaning...... makes Carduchians hit Carduchians?! This possibility?” 色诺芬首先反应过来:“戴弗斯,你的意思是……让杜客亚人去打杜客亚人？！这可能吗？” „Benefit, so long as there is a benefit, all have the possibility!” Davos affirmative saying. “利益,只要有利益,一切都有可能！”戴弗斯肯定的说道。 ....................................... ………………………………… In three day that the mercenaries camp, the Persia cavalry appears repeatedly, the attack is separated from the single soldier of army, abducts domestic animal that breeds, but also attempts to put Huoshao Village. 在雇佣军宿营的三天里,波斯骑兵多次出现,攻击脱离部队的单个士兵,掳走放养的牲畜,还企图放火烧村。 After the leaders discussed that thinks that Tissaphernes is doing utmost to prevent the mercenaries to enter Carduchia, did not hesitate to burn down the Persian king territories and people. In order to prevent him makes a more crazed matter to come, the army can only enter Carduchia ahead of time. 首领们商议后,认为蒂萨弗尼斯正在竭尽全力阻止雇佣军进入杜客亚,不惜烧毁波斯王的领土和人民。为了防止他做出更加丧心病狂的事情来,军队只能提前进入杜客亚。 Therefore fourth day early morning, the mercenaries break camp, marches to the north. 于是第四天清晨,雇佣军拔营,向北行军。 Tissaphernes gazes at the team that Greece is hiring commander dragon general from afar, covers under the shadow of hills gradually...... 蒂萨弗尼斯远远的注视着希腊雇佣军长龙一般的队伍,渐渐笼罩在群山的阴影下……
