The Rome person while issuing to retreat the order, the bugle call that the Volsci reinforcements attack also sounded. 罗马人在下达撤退命令的同时,沃尔西援军进攻的号声也吹响了。 The Setia people in city hear the bugle horn sound, immediately the confidence increases. 城内的塞提亚民众听到号角声,顿时信心大增。 Because the Rome army takes the squadron as the tactical unit, in attacking a city process, the organization of its army not extremely lax, but the Rome soldiers are the heavy infantries, without the preparation javelin and arrow arrow and stone...... the city wall also has many gaps let alone, they stood in the top defend, cannot play too major obstruction role. Therefore the Rome person organizes the team in a hurry, rushes to the city wall gap place respectively, but also without aligning the defense formation, the Volsci reinforcements flooded into from the west city wall gap...... 由于罗马军队以中队为战术单位,在攻城过程中,其军队的组织并没有太过涣散,但是罗马士兵多为重步兵,没有准备标枪、箭矢、石块……更何况城墙还有多个缺口,他们站在城头上防御,起不了太大的阻截作用。于是罗马人匆匆的组织起队伍,分别赶到城墙缺口处,还没有排列好防御队形,沃尔西援军就从西城墙缺口涌入了…… The physical strength is deficient, how long the formation not entire Rome army cannot prevent, by the vivid Volsci soldier to chaotic formation, they make use to support into the city various places, launched the fierce attack to the retreating Rome soldier. 体力匮乏、队形不整的罗马军队没能阻挡多久,就被生龙活虎的沃尔西战士冲乱了阵型,他们趁势拥入城内各处,对正在撤退的罗马士兵进行了凶猛的攻击。 The Rome people bursts, rushing to be first escapes from the Setia city. 罗马人大溃,争先恐后的逃出塞提亚城。 The Volsci reinforcements one close behind the other pursues, until the Rome soldier runs into the military compound. 沃尔西援军衔尾直追,直至罗马士兵逃进军营。 Luckily when Camillus according to the circumstances early, beforehand the prompt direction south army ordered retreating camp, then retreats in north army, again sends out the army to obstruct the pursuing troops, otherwise likely made Volscians break in the camp. 幸亏卡米卢斯见机得早,事先及时的指挥南面的部队有序的撤退营地,然后在北面军队溃退时,再派出军队阻截追兵,否则很可能让沃尔西人冲入了营地。 Fight of this day, the Rome army attacks a city the failure, the casualty reaches as high as more than 4000 people. But the Setia garrison troops same casualties are serious, about ten thousand people of Setia resident casualties. 这一天的战斗,罗马军队攻城失败,死伤高达4000多人。而塞提亚的守军同样伤亡惨重,更有近万人的塞提亚居民死伤。 The Theonia first regiment these holds the post to divert the duty of Rome camp garrison troops time, has almost not received what casualties, however the Volsci high levels in Privernum city actually Towles to Amintas and Purin expressed gratitude, strategy that because they proposed according to Theonian, defeated the powerful Rome person again, during celebration fight victory, they are also confident to the next combat plan that Amintas proposed. 戴奥尼亚第一军团这一次担任牵制罗马营地守军的任务,几乎没有受到什么伤亡,但是在波莱弗纳姆城内的沃尔西高层们却对阿明塔斯和普林托尔斯表示了感谢,因为他们按照戴奥尼亚人提出的策略,再次战胜了强大的罗马人,在庆祝战斗胜利的同时,他们也对阿明塔斯提出的下一步作战计划充满信心。 .................................... ……………………………… The failure of siege warfare made the entire Rome camp cover a shadow, but Quintus attacked and occupied the determination of Setia city actually not to vacillate, still insisted that must launch the attack to Setia city the next day again. 攻城战的失败让整个罗马营地笼罩上了一层阴影,但是昆图斯攻占塞提亚城的决心却没有动摇,仍然坚持要在第二天再发动对塞提亚城的进攻。 Regarding this, Camillus has not opposed, because he is very clear: Although Volscians wins again, but power gap of both sides has not obtained the big transformation, moreover Setia after the today's fierce fight, is the loss serious, barely managed to maintain a feeble existence, even if comes out several thousand reinforcements, in losing the situation of city garrison advantage, facing besieging of tens of thousands Rome armies, but is fat of mouth, moreover can seize the chance to reduce the Volsci reinforcements quantity. Therefore, continually the attack, to the enemy the opportunity of panting for breath, this strategy is correct. 对此,卡米卢斯并没有表示反对,因为他很清楚:虽然沃尔西人再次获得胜利,但双方的实力差距并没有得到大的转变,而且塞提亚经过今天激烈的战斗,已经是损失惨重、苟延残喘了,即使多出来几千援军,在失去了城防优势的情况下,面对几万罗马军队的围攻,不过是嘴里的一块肥肉而已,而且还能趁机减少沃尔西的援军数量。因此,持续进攻、不要给敌人以喘息之机,这个策略是正确的。 While supporting Quintus attacks a city the plan, Camillus also reminded three military administration officers: Must strengthen to the surrounding reconnaissance, the range of expanded detection, prevents to appear like today again „enemy reinforcements already arrived at present discovery” the dangerous situation. 在支持昆图斯攻城计划的同时,卡米卢斯也提醒三位军政官:要加强对周围的侦察,扩大侦查的范围,防止再出现像今天这样“敌人援军已经到了眼前才发现”的危险情况。 Regarding this suggestion, everyone expressed the support. But regarding another proposal that Camillus put forward, „under hope military administration officers arrived in each squadron, encouraging the soldier, to boost morale” the approach, Lius, Licinius Oursse expressed the support, only then Quintus said nothing pro or con. 对于这个建议,大家都表示赞同。但对于卡米卢斯提出的另一个建议,“希望军政官们下到各个中队中去,鼓励士兵、提振士气”的做法,弗留斯、李锡尼乌斯都表示赞同,只有昆图斯未置可否。 Next morning, the bugle call that the Rome camp gathers sounds, the well-dressed Rome soldier published the army tent/account in abundance, could not see yesterday failure depressed when their faces, instead displayed must go to battle with the excitement, the Rome citizen treats the attitude of fight to be inferred. 第二天上午,罗马营地集合的号声吹响,穿戴整齐的罗马士兵纷纷出了军帐,在他们的脸上看不到昨天失败时的沮丧,反而表现出要出战时的兴奋,罗马公民对待战斗的态度可见一斑。 When the soldiers line up in formation, was just about to embark the military administration officers who actually to receive a bad news in the big tent/account in this time. 就在士兵们列队的时候,在大帐内正要出发的军政官们却在此时收到了一则坏消息。 „Lancet Tula was ( Astura ) attacked?!” Lius hears this news, surprised staring in a big way the eye, his some angers interrupted the words of messenger: „Are our mounted scouts doing?! Volscians bypassed us once again, rear area attacks! We actually do not know!-” “阿斯图拉(Astura)遭到攻击？！”弗留斯听到这则消息,惊讶的瞪大了眼睛,他有些愤怒的打断信使的话:“我们的侦骑都在干什么？！沃尔西人又一次绕过了我们,去突袭后方！我们竟然都不知道！-” „Lius military administration officer.” The messengers reminded loudly: „It is not Volscians, possibly is Theonian! The enemies wear the black armor, about five and 6000 people, ride a huge fleet, the beach near Lancet Tula lands.” “弗留斯军政官。”信使大声的提醒道:“不是沃尔西人,可能是戴奥尼亚人！敌人都身穿黑色的盔甲,大约有五、六千人,乘坐一支庞大的船队,在阿斯图拉附近海滩登陆。” „I am ordered to come to notify, they have started to launch the attack to Lancet Tula city! Four military administration officers, please the fast faction reinforcements rescue! In Lancet Tula city only then a squadron, is unable to resist the attacks of so many enemies!” The messengers requested anxiously. “我奉命前来报信的时候,他们已经开始对阿斯图拉城展开了攻击！四位军政官,请你们速派援军救援！阿斯图拉城内只有一个中队,根本无法抵挡住这么多敌人的进攻啊！”信使焦急的请求。 Camillus, Quintus, Licinius Oursse, the Lius four people look at each other in blank dismay, the facial expression is extremely dignified. 卡米卢斯、昆图斯、李锡尼乌斯、弗留斯四人面面相觑,神情极其凝重。 The marine attack and landing operations...... such tactical rules, these Rome general have perhaps heard, personally has not actually experienced. Rome has the Ostiadal port although, but its warship is scarce, has never been used in the fight, but Rome constructs the city to the present, is inland city-state, always fights on the land, has never implemented the landing operations to his enemy, never has the enemy to implement the landing operations to it, after all the past enemy was like Rome, absolutely did not have the navy. Even Camillus, in the mind does not have the concept in this aspect. 海上进攻、登陆作战……这样的战法,这些罗马将领或许只是听闻过,却从来没有亲身见识过。罗马尽管拥有奥斯提亚港,但其战船稀少,从未用于过战斗,而罗马自建城到现在,一直都是个内陆城邦,始终是在陆地上战斗,从未对他的敌人实施过登陆作战,也从未有敌人对它实施过登陆作战,毕竟以往的敌人跟罗马一样,根本就没有海军。即使是卡米卢斯,脑海里也没有这方面的概念。 Therefore, they command the army even push, rushed to the south of Latin area Volscians, around the rear seized Volsci cities is the Latin allied country, the military administration officers has not left behind too many soldier defenses, because they think that rear area is the basic safety. 所以,他们率军一路平推,将沃尔西人都赶到了拉丁姆地区的南面,后方被占领的沃尔西城镇周围都是拉丁盟邦,军政官们并没留下太多的士兵防御,因为他们认为后方是基本安全的。 Only then, they realized: The enemy who Rome just provoked, not only the army is powerful, the navy is also powerful! The coastline of Latin area under the control of Theonia fleet. 直到此时,他们才意识到:罗马刚刚招惹上的这个敌人,不但陆军强大,海军同样强大！拉丁姆地区的海岸线都在戴奥尼亚舰队的控制之下。 Messenger's request lets Camillus and Licinius Oursse complexion big change immediately, shouting with one voice: „Antium ( Antium )! We must rescue Antium!” 信使的请求随即让卡米卢斯和李锡尼乌斯脸色大变,异口同声的喊道:“安提乌姆(Antium)！我们必须救援安提乌姆！” Lancet Tula city only then a squadron defends, is a small town, is impossible to resist the attacks of several thousand Theonia soldiers, moreover Lancet Tula, even if lost, the effect on the Rome army will not be big. However, as once was Antium of Volsci seashore cities was quite important regarding the Rome army north Lancet Tula, to less than ten li (0.5 km), because north this Volsci important cities had a big harbor, Rome army after capturing him, took the stopover station of military provisions transportation it. The grain and fodder of Rome collection through Tiber, delivers the Ostiadal port in Hekou, transports Antium through the ships again, is transporting through the land route to the Rome big camp, as the matter stands saved a lot of time and labor forces, provided the convenience for the grain transport. 阿斯图拉城只有一个中队防守,又是一个小城,不可能抵挡住几千名戴奥尼亚士兵的进攻,而且阿斯图拉即使失去了,对罗马军队的影响也不会太大。但是在阿斯图拉北面、相距不到十里、同样曾是沃尔西海滨城镇的安提乌姆对于罗马军队就相当重要了,因为这座沃尔西北部的重要城镇有一个较大的港口,罗马军队在夺取他之后,就将它作为军粮运输的中转站。罗马筹集的粮草通过台伯河,运载到河口的奥斯提亚港,再通过船只运送到安提乌姆,在通过陆路运送到罗马大营,这样一来就节省了不少的时间和劳力,为粮食运输提供了便利。 Because of the importance of Antium, Camillus was leaving behind four Rome squadrons here, a military baggage transport team. But he has not thought of the enemy from the marine surprise attack, the enemy who therefore this military compares the attack was really few, if made Theonian attack and occupy Antium, will make the food supply of Rome camp suffer. 正因为安提乌姆的重要,卡米卢斯在这里留下了四个罗马中队,还有一支辎重运输队。但他没有想到敌人会从海上突袭,因此这点兵力相比较来袭的敌人实在是太少了些,如果让戴奥尼亚人攻占了安提乌姆,将会让罗马营地的粮食供应遭遇困难。 In the big tent/account quiet the moment, Quintus said with the dry sound finally: „We should stop attacking a city temporarily, sending out the army to rescue Antium!” Quintus makes such decision finally, the mood is quite uncomfortable, the siege warfare that because exerts its utmost soon must launch, was actually broken suddenly. 大帐内沉寂了片刻,昆图斯终于用干涩的声音说道:“我们应该暂时停止攻城,派出军队救援安提乌姆！”昆图斯最终做出这样的决定,心情是相当难受的,因为势在必得的攻城战即将就要展开了,却被突然打断。 However then Kamiros's words make the people be startled: „I think that we should stop to the attack of Volscians, withdraws Rome the army!” 但是接下来卡米罗斯的话让众人大吃了一惊:“我认为我们应该停止对沃尔西人的进攻,将军队撤回罗马！” Three military administration officers surprised visits him, Camillus dignified saying: „The Theonia fleet is powerful, they can carry the Theonia land army any to have place landing of smooth beach on the Latin coastline, what today attacks is Antium, tomorrow may attack our Latin allied country Ardea, the day after tomorrow may be our important harbor Ostiadal, even Theonian will not satisfy only attacks the cities of seashore, but will advance to the inland, will attack our Latin allied country and colonizing city, will destroy our villages and paddies! The Theonia army is extremely powerful, but our main forces actually here, the Rome city and neighboring region troops are void!” 三位军政官吃惊的看着他,卡米卢斯神情凝重的说道:“戴奥尼亚舰队强大,他们可以载着戴奥尼亚的陆上军队在拉丁姆的海岸线上任何有平坦海滩的地方登陆,今天进攻的是安提乌姆,明天就可能进攻我们的拉丁盟邦阿迪,后天可能就是我们重要的港口奥斯提亚,甚至戴奥尼亚人不满足于只进攻海边的城镇,而是向内陆突进,进攻我们的拉丁盟邦和殖民城,摧毁我们的村庄和田地！戴奥尼亚军队相当强悍,而我们的主力却在这里,罗马城及周边地区兵力空虚！” „But...... but, Theonia is hit by the drought, they are impossible to send out more armies!” Lius loses one's voice to say. “可……可是,戴奥尼亚正在遭受旱灾,他们不可能派出更多的部队！”弗留斯失声说道。 „Yesterday afternoon a Theonia army is battling with us, today a Theonia army appears in behind on the coastline dozens li (0.5 km) away from us, they possibly are not the same armies! Then there is the second Theonia army, may present the third Theonia army! But we......” Camillus stare at three people, the sinking sound said: „Dares to take the safety of Rome territories and people takes risk?!” “昨天下午一支戴奥尼亚的军队在同我们交战,今天一支戴奥尼亚的军队出现在距离我们后方几十里以外的海岸线上,它们不可能是同一支军队！那么有了第二支戴奥尼亚军队,就有可能出现第三支戴奥尼亚军队！而我们……”卡米卢斯凝视三人,沉声说道:“敢于拿罗马领地和民众的安危来冒这个险吗？！” In three people of hearts one tight, for a while was silent. 三人心中一紧,一时沉默了。 Four military administration officers, Quintus is the big noble birth, Camillus and Lius is the small noble birth, Licinius Oursse is the humble birth, their habits and customs are different, in the ideal has the difference, but is a little same: They deeply love Rome, is not willing to make this have a homeland of disaster to suffer the danger again! 四位军政官,昆图斯是大贵族出身,卡米卢斯和弗留斯是小贵族出身,李锡尼乌斯是平民出身,他们生活习惯不同,政治理念上有差异,但是有一点是相同的:他们都热爱罗马,不愿让这座已经有过一次灾难的家园再遭受危险！ Therefore, they put down the respective benefit quickly, reached an agreement: Are led 12,000 people to go to rescue Antium by Quintus, Lius immediately ; But after Camillus and Licinius Oursse leads about 30,000 soldiers to tidy up the camp, is escorting the military baggage and wounded soldier, safe retreating returns to Rome. 因此,他们很快就放下了各自的利益,达成了一致:由昆图斯、弗留斯率领一万两千人立刻前往救援安提乌姆;而卡米卢斯和李锡尼乌斯则带领着近3万士兵收拾完营地之后,护送着辎重和伤兵,稳妥的撤退回罗马。 .......................................... …………………………………… After Litom received the Davos letter, he starts to be careful from the Campania area not far Volsci area. 在利扎鲁接到了戴弗斯的来信之后,他就开始对距离坎帕尼亚地区不远的沃尔西地区上了心。 Quick, he received Amintas to request letter that he assisted. 很快,他又收到了阿明塔斯请求他协助的信件。 „Antium and between the Ostiadal ports delivers the freighter communication of grain is frequent” the news to be enlivened in the Campania merchants of west coast of Italy early watches, this news naturally also passed to the ear of Litom quickly. “安提乌姆与奥斯提亚港之间运载粮食的货船来往频繁”的消息早被活跃于意大利西海岸的坎帕尼亚商人看在眼里,这消息自然也很快就传到了利扎鲁的耳里。 At his request, a related Volsci area enemy and ourselves strength roughly distributed information from intelligence service delivered to his hand. 在他的要求下,一份来自情报部门的有关沃尔西地区敌我力量大致分布的情报就送到了他的手中。
