Please say!” Burkes busy say/way. “你请说!”布尔科斯忙道。 I in left flank and Taranto in right flank and Thurii center, this order am invariable. However, sends left flank to hand over Adrien, Adrasto, Sesta 2000 mercenaries as well as 200 cavalries by me completely directs. I will lead more than 4000 infantries and 200 cavalries to rout right flank of enemy at the shortest time as far as possible, is coordinating center of center converging attack enemy, achieves the success of entire battle is only the issue of duration!” Davos fills with self-confident saying. “我在左翼塔兰图姆右翼图里伊中路,这个次序不变。但是,将阿德里安克斯、阿德拉斯、塞斯塔的两千雇佣军以及两百名骑兵全部派到左翼交由我指挥。我将率四千多名步兵、两百名骑兵尽量以最短的时间击溃敌人的右翼,在配合中路夹击敌人的中路,获得整个会战的胜利只是时间长短的问题!”戴弗斯满怀自信的说道。 You determined that gives after these 2000 mercenaries and 200 cavalries you direct, can at the shortest time rout the enemy?!” Burkes slightly obviously excited asking. “你确定把这两千雇佣兵和两百名骑兵交给你指挥后,能以最短的时间击溃敌人?!”布尔科斯略显心动的问道。 „The accidental/surprised factor in fight are too many, before without official engagement, I am unable to determine. However, I look like this plan compared with that plan that you give, the possibility of achievement want to be higher!” Davos strongly wants to convince Burkes. “战斗中的意外因素太多,没有正式接战前,我无法确定。但是,就我看来这个计划比你们给的那个计划,获胜的可能性要高很多!”戴弗斯竭力的想说服布尔科斯 Burkes silent long time, said in a low voice: But in generals, their possibility of plan success is at heart bigger...... no matter what, I will report your suggestion to General Friis, was decided by the general executive committee, accepts.” 布尔科斯沉默了良久,低声说道:“但是在将军们的心里,他们的计划成功的可能性更大……不管怎样,我会把你的建议上报给斐瑞斯将军,由将军执行委员会来决定,是否采纳。” Davos understood in the Burkes words the concealed meaning, floats on the face disappointedly. But he cheers up quickly: If 2000 mercenaries cannot to me, 200 cavalries always be able to give me.” 戴弗斯听懂了布尔科斯话中所隐含的意思,一丝失望浮于脸上。但他很快振作精神:“如果两千雇佣军不能给我,两百骑兵总能给我吧。” Burkes shakes the head: Cavalry branch two wings are the military traditions, you should be clear compared with me. Let alone, including 100 cavalries from Taranto, they are impossible to drop out oneself compatriot not to help, but runs your left flank.” 布尔科斯摇摇头:“骑兵分部两翼是军事传统,你应该比我清楚。更何况,其中有一百骑兵是来自塔兰图姆,他们不可能抛下自己的同胞不去帮助,而跑去你的左翼。” Davos had no way, thinks saying: „The battle efficiency of Taranto reinforcements how?” 戴弗斯没法了,想了想说道:“塔兰图姆援军的战斗力如何?” Should be very strong. Archytas once led them to repel Messapians twice, Messapians is the Lucanians person similarly powerful race.” Burkes affirmative saying. “应该很强。阿契塔曾经带领他们两次击退梅萨皮人,梅萨皮人是与卢卡尼亚人人同样强悍的种族。”布尔科斯肯定的说道。 Archytas......” Davos is reading this name, said resolutely: Since this, that sends right flank to go these 200 cavalries.” 阿契塔……”戴弗斯念着这个名字,毅然说道:“既然这样,那就把这两百名骑兵都派到右翼去吧。” You determined you said isn't the angry words?” Burkes surprised asking. “你确定你说的不是气话?”布尔科斯吃惊的问。 To me, the war is decides a city-state rise and fall and most important important matter of countless person dying fresh destiny! Therefore regarding this with the war of my close relation, I have not been investment in which of wholeheartedly, does not have the tiny bit selfishness and general idea/careless! But, does not say regarding Thurii these generals, did they have to understand the military constitution of Lucanian alliance in detail? They unify to conduct the training all armies beforehand, when fight acts in harmony?......” “对我来说,战争是决定一个城邦兴亡、无数人死生命运的最重要的大事!因此对于这场与我并没有密切关系的战争,我也是全身心的投入其中,没有一丝一毫的私心和大意!可是,对于图里伊的那些将军们就不好说了,他们有去详细了解过卢卡尼亚联军的兵力构成吗?他们事先将所有部队统一进行过训练、以便战斗时配合默契吗?……” The Davos disaffection vented finally through interrogations, making Burkes blush with shame, he felt that Davos really made the effort for this fight, wanted to open the mouth and stop several times, finally saying resolutely: Davos, you felt relieved. After I have gone to Drakos their camps, hurries back immediately, conveyed your suggestion to Friis, and requested earnestly him seriously to consider!” 戴弗斯的不满终于通过一个个质问发泄出来,让布尔科斯汗颜,他感到戴弗斯是真的为这场战斗投入了心力,几次欲开口又止住,最终毅然的说道:“戴弗斯,你放心。等我去过德拉科斯他们的营地后,就立刻赶回去,向斐瑞斯转达你的建议,并且恳请他认真考虑!” After Burkes walks, Davos called Asistes immediately: Brothers climb up the stone wall to practice with the rope hook how?” 布尔科斯走后,戴弗斯立即叫来亚西斯特斯:“兄弟们用绳钩攀爬石墙练的怎么样了?” They have been able to climb up the stone wall very much with ease. Good tool that the rope hook that the leader you designs really climbs up!” “他们已经能很轻松地爬上石墙。首领你设计的绳钩真是攀爬的好工具!” That was really good!” On the face of Davos had a happy expression finally: You go to the market to tell Marigi now immediately, I must order 20 sets of rope hooks again, making him urge the blacksmith's shop to complete as soon as possible in two days!” “那真是太好了!”戴弗斯的脸上终于有了一丝笑意:“你现在立刻去市场告诉马里吉,我要再定购二十套绳钩,让他敦促铁匠铺尽快在两天内做好!” Good, I go immediately.” “好的,我立刻就去。” .................................... ……………………………… In 399 B. C. a day of early morning of the end of April, like the past, the climate was warm, is sunny, the fresh flower is in full bloom all over, was a going for a walk auspicious day. 公元前399年四月末的一天清晨,就像往日一样,气候暖和,阳光明媚,漫山遍野鲜花盛开,是个踏青的好日子。 However, on the Sybaris plain is mounted scout four, in the air is actually filling the tense atmosphere of murdering. 然而,绪巴里平原上却是侦骑四出,空气中弥漫着杀伐的紧张气氛。 In the mercenaries leader big tent/account the standing team officer, Davos observes the situation the people: Has followed his old friend, such as Hielos, Antonios, Kapus and the others ; Also there are just joined soon acquaintance, such as Hieronymus, Agasias. Now each one is serious, is critical situation, waits for his instruction. 雇佣军首领大帐内站满队官,戴弗斯环视众人:这其中有一直跟随他的老战友,如希洛斯安东尼奥斯卡普斯等人;也有刚加入不久的熟人,如希罗尼穆斯阿加西亚等。如今个个都面色凝重,如临大敌,等候他的指示。 „The Lucanians army has set out to Thurii, Thurii has come the person to inform us, immediately has the camp and they converges. Brothers!” Davos fills with self-confidently, smiles was saying: Made these ignorant arrogant Thurii people experience our Greece Expeditionary force soldiers truly fierce times to!” 卢卡尼亚人的军队已经向图里伊进发,图里伊已经来人通知我们,立即出营和他们汇合。兄弟们!”戴弗斯满怀自信,微笑着说道:“让这些无知傲慢的图里伊人见识一下我们希腊远征军士兵们真正厉害的时刻到了!” „!!!” The team officers fighting spirit surges upward. “嗬!!!”队官们斗志高涨。 The third light infantry regiment that „when according to the beforehand deployment, Hielos leads the fifth heavy infantry regiment and Arpenst that leads( this is by Byzantium mercenary who joins composes, has bowman and stone soldier, more than 200 people) remain behind the camp, prevents the enemy sneak attack of Amendolara. Other armies have the camp according to the order.” “按照之前的部署,希洛斯率领的第五重步兵连队和阿尔普恩斯率领的第三轻步兵连队(这是由拜占庭时加入的雇佣兵组成,有弓手和投石兵,共两百多人)留守营地,防止阿门多拉腊的敌人偷袭。其余的部队按顺序出营。” Yes!!!” “是!!!” ................................. …………………………… When the Thurii army goes out of town, they saw Davos mercenaries early waits outside the city. 图里伊的军队出城时,他们看到戴弗斯的雇佣军早早的在城外等候。 „Is this Greek Expeditionary force?! I look am also exaggerating. You looked that these soldiers do not squat are lying, punctures the spear/gun shield to throw in one side, the appearance of completely no soldier!” Kunogelata spent the high price actually to buy the distressed appearance of tripe. “这就是希腊远征军?!我看也是言过其实。你看这些士兵不是蹲着就是趴着,刺枪盾牌都扔在一边,完全没有一点士兵的样子!”库诺戈拉塔一副花了高价钱却买了劣质品的痛心模样。 Friis is worrying about the forthcoming war at this moment, no thoughts argued with Kunogelata on this ordinary common military knowledge. 斐瑞斯此刻操心着即将到来的大战,没心思就这点普通的军事常识跟库诺戈拉塔争论一番。 At this time, speech that nearby young people have not actually had scruples: We sent to inform their messengers should just to come back, but this army has stood waits for us here, obviously the ability of the mobilization capability and performance order of this army was very strong! As for lying, is squatting, that is before battle preserves the physical strength, explained that they experience richly, can so relax in the time that the war approaches! I somewhat believe now, they have haunch the left flank ability alone!” 这时,旁边一个年轻人却没有顾忌的说话了:“我们派出去通知他们的信使应该是刚回来吧,而这支军队就已经站在这里等候我们了,可见这支军队的动员能力和执行命令的能力很强!至于趴着、蹲着,那是为了开战前保存体力,也说明他们经验丰富,在大战来临的时刻还能如此放松!我现在有些相信,他们有独自撑起左翼的能力!” Kunogelata light snort/hum, this young people after all are the Thurii honored guest, he has to be silent. 库诺戈拉塔轻哼了一声,这位年轻人毕竟是图里伊的贵客,他只好闭口不言。 At this time, Davos under the leadership of Burkes, spread to them. 这时候,戴弗斯布尔科斯的带领下,向他们驰来。 General Friis, mercenaries leader Davos salutes to you!” Davos serious is saluting immediately. 斐瑞斯将军,雇佣军首领戴弗斯向你致敬!”戴弗斯郑重的在马上行礼。 Although once listened to Burkes saying that however your young makes me be startled! The young leader, thank your help to the Thurii, today makes us kill the enemy together shoulder to shoulder!” Friis also grave saluting response. “虽然曾听布尔科斯说过,但是你的年轻还是让我吃惊!年轻的首领,感谢你对图里伊的帮助,今天让我们一起并肩杀敌!”斐瑞斯也庄重的行礼回应。 Such as you hope, General Friis.” Davos accepts saying that then shifts to Kunogelata, because there is a direction of Burkes, he can certainly call the name accurately: Salutes to you, General Kunogelata!” “如你所愿,斐瑞斯将军。”戴弗斯应承道,然后转向库诺戈拉塔,因为有布尔科斯的指点,他当然能准确的叫出名字:“向你致敬,库诺戈拉塔将军!” Captain Davos, your proposition very bold, to be honest makes me very excited, but the generals undergo the discussion to think extremely in the adventure, therefore has not accepted, hopes that do not care!” The Kunogelata apology, showed specially, but also urges on a horse goes forward, patted the shoulder of Davos, is intimate with. 戴弗斯首领,你的提议非常的大胆,说实话让我很是心动,但是将军们经过讨论认为太过于冒险,所以没有采纳,希望你不要在意!”库诺戈拉塔略带歉意,特意对此说明,还驱马上前,拍了拍戴夫斯的肩膀,以示亲近。 Pre-war discussion to profit by opinions from various sources, once forms the resolution, that wants the firm performance order. You could rest assured that I am a soldier, takes the performance order as the inborn responsibility!” “战前商讨是为了集思广益,一旦形成决议,那就要坚决执行命令。你放心,我是一名士兵,以执行命令为天生的职责!” Good soldier to take the performance order as inborn responsibility!” That young people praised loudly, and introduced itself on own initiative: Captain Davos hello/you good! I am Taranto Archytas, has heard the legend of your Greece Expeditionary force, today sees you, has not disappointed me!” “好一句‘士兵以执行命令为天生的职责’!”那位年轻人大声赞道,并主动介绍自己:“戴弗斯首领你好!我是塔兰图姆阿契塔,一直听闻你们希腊远征军的传奇故事,今天见到你,没有让我失望!” Davos looks fixedly, although the present young people wear the military garb, is longer much the scholarly, bringing on the sincere smile face a pair of bright vision to be slightly profound: General Archytas( Taranto is the double archon system, does not have general duty, here is only a respectful designation), the math and military genius of Taranto, can fight side-by-side with you are my being honored!” 戴弗斯定眼看去,眼前的年轻人虽然身披戎装,却长得温文儒雅,带着真挚笑容的脸上一双明亮的目光略显深邃:“阿契塔将军(塔兰图姆是双执政官制度,没有‘将军’的职务,这里只是一个敬称),塔兰图姆的数学和军事天才,能同你并肩作战是我的荣幸!” Davos friendly returning salute, and continues saying: I think that the math and military have the positive connection, each soldier in array is a point, but the innumerable points formed the straight line and block, how the basic condition of victory make each point bring into full play its function......” 戴弗斯友好的还礼,并继续说道:“我想数学和军事是有必然联系的,阵列中的每一个士兵就是一个点,而无数的点形成了直线和方块儿,胜利的基本条件就是如何让每一个点都充分发挥它的作用……” You said was too right!” Archytas cheers up, kind asking: „Does Captain Davos have the research to the math?” “你说的太对了!”阿契塔高兴起来,亲切的问道:“戴弗斯首领对数学也有研究?” I know not many about the math, but I to the Pythagoras school of thought actually respectfully!” Davos earnest saying. “我对数学了解不多,但我对毕达哥拉斯学派却充满敬意!”戴弗斯认真的说道。 Archytas sees his language sincere, immediately greatly fresh favorable impression, but also prepares to speak again. 阿契塔见他语出挚诚,顿时大生好感,还准备再说话。 Friis hits to block the way: „The leaders of other mercenaries are catching up, now makes us define the respective responsibility again together, unified command.” 斐瑞斯打断道:“其他雇佣军的首领正在赶来,现在让我们再一起明确各自的职责,统一号令。” Note: The second historical celebrity who Archytas, in this novel presents, is compared with Xenophon, were too few about his historical record, who called his activities continuously in Magna Graecia. Possibly the mathematical specialized reader is quite familiar with him, he has very big unique interpretation in the classical math and physical domain, the Archimedes utilization pulley manufacture machinery, frustrates to siege Syracuse Rome, but the pulley is the research that Archytas first makes, Archimedes is epitomizing. 注:阿契塔,本小说中出现的第二位历史名人,可是于色诺芬相比,关于他的历史记录就太少了,谁叫他的活动范围一直在大希腊。可能数学专业的读者对他比较熟悉,他在古典数学和物理领域都有很大创见,阿基米德运用滑轮制造机械,挫败围困锡拉库扎罗马,而滑轮就是阿契塔最先做出的研究,阿基米德是集大成者。
