在这样的局势下,雅典人不认为仅凭自己和底比斯就能够对抗强大的斯巴达,在将军执行委员会和议事会经过紧急的磋商之后,雅典在咄咄逼人的斯巴达监察官面前选择了妥协退让。TheyrecalledimmediatelyintwoGeneralAthens of Thebescombat, andconvenesecclesia, triesit, itschargeis„theyshoulders the Athensimportantpublic service, actuallywithoutobtaining the Athensgovernmentpermitting, entersThebesrashly, battleswith the Spartaperson, posts the dangerAthens...... thisis the behavior of derelictionandtreason”.
他们立即招回了正在底比斯作战的两位雅典将军,并且召开公民大会,对其进行审判,其罪名是“他俩肩负雅典重要公职,却在没获得雅典政府允许的情况下,贸然进入底比斯,同斯巴达人作战,将雅典置入危险的境地……这是渎职和叛国的行为”。AlthoughmostAthenscitizensinsupport the approaches of thesetwogeneralsat heart, buttheytrulydo not wantto make warwithpowerfulSpartaatthis time, thereforeis contrary to convictionscast the affirmative vote, implements the harshestpenaltytotwopeople- executes, tosubside the anger of Spartaperson.
尽管绝大多数雅典公民在心里是支持这两位将军的做法,但是他们确实不想在这个时候同强大的斯巴达开战,因此违心的投下了赞成票,对二人实行最严厉的惩罚-处决,以平息斯巴达人的怒火。

“迦太基大军的惨败、伊比利亚海军的失败”的消息传到迦太基之后,引起了民众的震惊。而让迦太基高层悲痛的是神圣兵团损失惨重,各个家族在痛哭自己精英子弟死伤的同时,也对大军统帅蒙特阿德诺的无能感到异常的愤怒,他们纷纷叫嚷着要罢免蒙特阿德诺的职务,将其押回迦太基,通过百人法庭的审判,对其施行残酷的“十字之刑”,方能解他们心头之恨(即将罪犯的手脚用铁钉钉在木制的十字架上,任其在阳光下暴晒,血流尽而死)。In the is dangerous to antagonize the massessituation, Hanno(Hannonian)has not defendedMontaDesnot, whatevercounciladoptedthisresolution.
在众怒难犯的情况下,汉诺没有为蒙特阿德诺辩护,任由元老院通过了这个决议。Carthagecouncil after thissubject, thenstartsto discussintenselyhowto dealin the Sicilyislandis taking advantagevictory the Theoniaarmy that marchesto the west.迦太基元老院在通过这个议题之后,接下来开始激烈讨论如何应对正在西西里岛上趁胜向西进军的戴奥尼亚军队。
A newFettersuddenlyCleetonis emboldening, proposedin a soft voice: „Everyone, looks like...... the Theoniaarmy and navynowis powerful, before Carthage, has not made the preparation, conducts the warto be wrongwithTheoniarashly, whethernowwefirstcan consider...... with the Theoniapeace negotiation, toretrievecapturedCarthagecitizentemporarily, simultaneouslypreventswestmilitaryvoidSicilyto be seizedbyTheoniancompletely......”
新任的苏菲特之一俄克里顿壮着胆子,轻声提议:“各位,现在看来……戴奥尼亚的陆军和海军实力强大,迦太基之前没有做充分的准备,就冒然与戴奥尼亚进行战争是错误的,现在我们是不是可以先考虑……暂时与戴奥尼亚议和,以救回被俘虏的迦太基公民,同时防止兵力空虚的西西里西部被戴奥尼亚人全部占领……”suddenlyCleetonsuch remarks, incouncilin an uproar, PrestatKubbastandsimmediately, refutedloudly: „ Warjust conducted for a month, our can Carthagesurrender?!

俄克里顿此话一出,元老院内一片哗然,普雷塔库巴当即站起来,大声反驳道:“战争才刚刚进行了一个月,我们迦太基就要投降了?!我简直不敢相信这个荒谬的提议是来自于我们推选出的、尊贵的苏菲特之口!我们迦太基不是小邦,我们是西地中海所有腓尼基城邦的盟主!我们控制着撒丁尼亚、科西嘉、努米比亚、伊比利亚南部等广袤的地域,垄断着整个西地中海的贵金属贸易,是西地中海最强大、最富有的国家!Howeveryouactuallywantusto the founding of the nationless than20years of Theoniasurrenders, the localpeople, ourattachedcity-stateandouralliance association that wecontrolhowthink!

Therefore, sincehas startedwith the Theoniawar, wemustfight, untilwinsfinally! ”
但是你竟然要我们向建国不到20年的戴奥尼亚投降,我们所控制的地区民众、我们的附属城邦、我们的同盟会怎么想!他们会认为迦太基实力不行了!他们会离我们而去,甚至向我们吹响战争的号角,就比如努米比亚人!因此,既然与戴奥尼亚的战争已经开始,我们就必须战斗下去,直到最终获得胜利!”
The PrestatKubba'sawakeningwordsmakemanysenior statesmenbe touched.
普雷塔库巴发人深省的一番话让不少元老受到触动。At this time, safePanRackow Stationgot up, facial expressionserioussaying: „Ithink that suddenlySirCleetonas well aseachsenior statesmanpresentwantto makeCarthagedefeatTheonia, but the presentsituationIsTheonia thearmyis powerful, the force ratio that theyset outweare few, can actually makeourarmiesfail badly!

这时,泰潘拉科站起来,神情郑重的说道:“我想俄克里顿大人以及在座的每一位元老都想让迦太基战胜戴奥尼亚,但现在的情况是-戴奥尼亚的军队实力强大,他们出动的兵力比我们少,却能够让我们的军队遭受惨败!他们的海军也占据着优势!……我们必须承认现在在军事方面戴奥尼亚确实比我们强,我们还没有准备好,本就不该在这个时候冒然与戴奥尼亚开战,却就因为某些人为了个人的利益煽动民众,致使迦太基陷入今天这困难的境地!我认为首先要调查这些制造战争的人,对其进行审判,才能保证元老院以后制定法案,不至于陷入混乱!……”
The safePanLakewordsjustsaid,PrestatKubbarefutesimmediately: „Sir, isourCarthagesoldier is not very really brave, ourarmiesare not very strong, isn't ournavygood?! It is not!

Possiblyhowto make the correctcombat plan, defeatsTheonian!......”
泰潘拉科话刚说完,普雷塔库巴立刻反驳道:“诸位大人,难道真的是我们迦太基的士兵不够勇敢,我们的军队不够强大,我们的海军不行吗?!不是!是因为我们的将领不行!同样都是在西西里岛上作战,为什么哈斯德鲁巴率领的伊比利亚军队可以攻克塞罗迪厄姆,而蒙特阿德诺手握重兵,却惨败在米诺亚城下!我听说蒙特阿德诺到达利利俾之后,天天享受着美酒,到处搜罗美女,从来没有到军营中去了解自己的部队和士兵,在攻打米诺亚城的时候,也从不亲自上阵督战,甚至躲在大帐内喝酒享乐,这样无能的统帅怎么可能鼓舞士兵们的斗志!怎么可能制定出正确的作战计划,去战胜戴奥尼亚人!……”„Therefore, is sentenced toMonta the punishment of Desnotcrossis the absolutely correct! MontaDesnotdamn!”Hassenior statesmanangryloudshouting.
“所以,判处蒙特阿德诺十字之刑是绝对正确的!蒙特阿德诺该死!”有元老愤怒的大声喊道。Manysenior statesmenalsovoice should with, toexpress that tohisresenting, Hanno(Hannonian)also to the MontaDesnotextreme unhappiness, hate deeplymisread the personat heart, causing the entirepoliticalsituationnot to favor itself.
紧接着,不少元老也发声应和,以表示对他的愤恨,就连汉诺也在心里对蒙特阿德诺极度不满,深恨自己看错了人,导致整个政坛局势不利于自己。In a noise, there is a peoplesoundto ask: „PrestatKubba, sinceyousaid that Carthageisbecause the commanderlost toTheoniaincompetently, thenyouthink that whocanlead the Carthagearmy, to defeatTheonian?!”
在一片吵闹声中,有人大声问道:“普雷塔库巴,既然你说迦太基是因为统帅无能才败给了戴奥尼亚,那么你认为谁才能够领导迦太基军队、战胜戴奥尼亚人?!”Hanno(Hannonian)turns the bodyto lookimmediately, discovered the senior statesman of personMagonidvirtueFactionsspeech, criticizesone: Shameless!汉诺立刻扭身回望,发现说话的人正是马戈尼德派系的一名元老,不禁暗骂一声:无耻!Listens toPrestatKubbato sayimmediatelyloudly: „Fellowsenior statesmen, Ithink that youhave heardwest the IberiapeninsulaCelts of LuthyTanjapersonandnorthernmountainous area-”
就听普雷塔库巴立刻大声说道:“各位元老,我想你们都听说过伊比利亚半岛西部的卢西塔尼亚人和北部山区的凯尔特人吧-”AlthoughmostCarthagesenior statesmenhave not gone toIberia, but more than ten years, withMagontoIberiasouthernconquering, theyalsounderstoodmanyinsituationaboutIberiapeninsula, it is saidthesetworacesaresouthnear of Iberiaperson, butactuallycompared withthemmore barbaricaggressive, tookslaughteringtoliveandtakedying in battleas the honor.
虽然大多数迦太基元老并未去过伊比利亚,但是这十多年来,随着玛哥对伊比利亚南部的征服,他们也了解了不少关于伊比利亚半岛上的情况,据说这两支种族是南部伊比利亚人的近支,但却比他们更加野蛮凶悍,以杀戮为生、以战死为荣。PrestatKubbasees the attention of manysenior statesmanto be attractedbyoneself, thenfacial expressiongravesaying: „ThesetwoIberiaindigenousonceinvaded the Iberiasouthterritory that governorSirMagonhas jurisdiction overseveraltimeson a large scale, commanded the armyto repelbyhim. Mustknowin the IberiaCarthagearmy, not onlyhas the mercenary , many CarthagecitizensoldiersandPhoeniciaAllied armies, the somixedarmycanconquer the soaggressiveenemy, wasCarthageconqueredsuchbiglands, whyhadelitersacredarmy corps, to have the Carthagearmyactuallydisastrous defeats of moresoldier less thanourTheoniaarmiesin the population?!”
普雷塔库巴见不少元老的注意力被自己吸引,接着神情庄重的说道:“这两个伊比利亚的土著曾经几次大举入侵总督玛哥大人所管辖的伊比利亚南部领地,均被他率军击退。要知道在伊比利亚的迦太基军队中不光有雇佣兵,也有不少迦太基公民兵和腓尼基盟军,如此混杂的军队都能够战胜如此凶悍的敌人,为迦太基征服了那么一大片土地,为什么拥有更精锐的神圣兵团、拥有更多士兵的迦太基军队却惨败于人数少于我们的戴奥尼亚军队呢?!”PrestatKubbaobserves the situation the people, loud and clear: „Thatisbecause-, only then the liongeneralcommand, canlead the lioncommonfiercearmy;Butweakcommandlikelamb, even ifgiveshim the elitesoldier, hecannot displaytheirfierceness! Sir, matteris very obvious, nowcanlead the armyto winlike the lioninCarthageto the Theoniavictory, onlypossiblyisIberiaGovernorSirMagon!”
普雷塔库巴环视众人,掷地有声:“那是因为-只有雄狮一般的统帅,才能带领出雄狮一般勇猛的军队;而像羊羔一样软弱的统帅,即使给他再精锐的士兵,他也发挥不出他们的勇猛!诸位大人,事情很明显,现在在迦太基能够像雄狮一样带领军队赢得对戴奥尼亚战争胜利的,只可能是伊比利亚总督玛哥大人!”AlthoughmanypeopleknowPrestatKubbawill finally say„Magon”name, whenhesays, suddenlyno onemakes the rebuttal, evenhisopponentsstillhave toacknowledge,in the militarycanwithmeritorious military service that establishes, no onecancomparewithMagon.
虽然很多人都知道普雷塔库巴最终会说出“玛哥”的名字,但是当他说出口的时候,一时间没有人作出反驳,即使是他的反对者们也不得不承认,在军事才能和所立下的战功方面,没有人能够跟玛哥相比。Thismore than ten years, Carthaginianshas not been at the peacepeacefullifecondition, theirpositiveis conducting conqueringto the CarthagesouthNummiBiyainlandarea, afterconquering, oftenmustsuppress the rebellion of NummiBiyaperson, butNummiBiyaeachtribe for over a hundredyearshave received the economic control and cultural infiltration of Carthaginians, to estrangeandbuy, are unable to organize a unifiedallianceto resist the attack of Carthaginianswith joint forces, therefore the intensity of warthroughoutis not big, is unable by farandMagoncommands the armyto comparealonedifficultly, will therefore appearinNummi who conquerssouthstrangeIberiato meet. BiyabattlefieldperformancegoodMontaDesnotarrives atSicily, was shattered to piecesbyTheonian.
这十多年来,迦太基人并非是一直处于和平安宁的生活状态,他们积极的向迦太基南面的努米比亚内陆地区进行着征服,在征服之后,又不时的要镇压努米比亚人的叛乱,但是努米比亚各个部落上百年来一直受着迦太基人的经济控制、文化渗透、离间和收买,根本无法组织起一个统一的联盟来合力对抗迦太基人的进攻,因此战争的强度始终是不大的,远远无法与玛哥独自率军征服较陌生的伊比利亚南部所遇到的困难相比较,所以才会出现在努米比亚战场表现不错的蒙特阿德诺一来到西西里,就被戴奥尼亚人打得落花流水。„In the army that pitifullyMagonleadsmajoritywas notCarthage and Phoenician......”suddenlyCleetonsaidspookily, hesaidissue that the beforehandmanysenior statesmanwas worried about.
“可惜玛哥率领的军队中大部分都不是迦太基和腓尼基人……”俄克里顿幽幽的说了一句,他说的正是之前众多元老所担心的问题。At this time, PrestatKubbasneers saying: „ Doesn't SirMagon want moreCarthagecitizensoldier?! It is not! Isbecauseweare unable to provideenoughcitizento conquerIberiaindigenous! Let alone, whatnowwefaceisTheoniathiskingdomcanorganize over 100,000citizensoldierarmiesone time, our can Carthageachieve?! Wecannot achieve! Will weevenlosingseveral thousandSaintgroupsoldiersbe sorrowful, whatwealsotaketo contendwithTheonia? Onlycandepend upon the mercenary and alien racearmy!
此时,普雷塔库巴冷笑道:“玛哥大人难道不想拥有更多的迦太基公民兵吗?!不是!是因为我们根本无法提供足够的公民去征服伊比利亚的土著!更何况,如今我们面对的是戴奥尼亚这个王国可以一次性组织10万以上的公民兵军队,我们迦太基可以做到吗?!我们做不到!我们甚至连损失了几千圣团士兵都会悲痛不已,那我们又拿什么与戴奥尼亚相抗衡?只能依靠雇佣兵和异族军队!Everyoneknows that the Spartacitizenis scarce, for over a hundredyearsare depending upon the allied countrysoldier and alien racearmycombat, become the overlord in Greece, neverseethemto be worried the alien racearmyhand/subordinatewill rebel!

Isbecauseourinnermost feelingsbecomefrail, is unable withCarthageadaptedpowerful?!! ”
大家都知道斯巴达公民稀少,上百年来都依靠着盟邦士兵和异族军队作战,成为希腊的霸主,从未见他们担心过手下的异族军队会作乱!还有波斯,哪一次作战所率领的异族军队不是多于自己本族的士兵?可正因为这样,波斯才会建立一个强大而繁荣的王国!更何况在十几年前,希米尔科大人率领军队进攻锡拉库扎时,军队中一样有着数量不少的努米比亚人和凯尔特等异族!为什么今天我们反而要担心起这些帮我们作战、维护迦太基在西地中海威望的异族军队了呢?!难道是因为我们的内心变得脆弱,无法与迦太基的强大相适应了吗?!!”Hanno(Hannonian)holdsitto the PrestatKubba'sfinalquestionby the nose, henaturallyis notbecause the Iberiaarmymajorityis the mercenary and alien racearmyis scared, but the organization that because the pay of thesearmiesare not managedbyCarthagecouncilprovides, by the Magonidvirtuefamilieswithoneselfin the wealthdirect payment that in the Iberiapeninsulagains, in this sense, the Iberiaarmyis the Magonidvirtuefamily'sprivatearmy, thisisHanno(Hannonian)is worried!汉诺对普雷塔库巴最后的反问持之以鼻,他当然不是因为伊比利亚的军队大部分为雇佣兵和异族军队而感到害怕,而是因为这些军队的薪酬不是由迦太基元老院所下辖的机构来提供,是由马戈尼德家族用自己在伊比利亚半岛上所赚来的财富直接支付的,从这个意义上来讲,伊比利亚军队是马戈尼德家族的私军,这才是汉诺所担心的!
