Cruehesitant, said: „...... CommanderSir, do youwantto tellGovernorSiprus?”
穆克鲁犹豫了一下,说道:“……指挥官大人,你要不要去告诉一下西普洛斯总督?”Leotychidessaidonelightly: „Was too far, in the timewithout enough time, your majestyshouldincorporate intometo direct the Sicilyfleetinitially, suchwill minuslots oftroubles, yourquickperformance order.”列奥提齐德斯淡淡的说了一句:“太远了,时间上来不及,当初陛下就应该将西西里舰队划归我指挥,那样会少掉很多的麻烦,你快去执行命令吧。”Quick, response that MilTiyasmakesCrue'sexpectation, henot only the proposition that refusesLeotychidesto makehimcruise, andalsomakesCruehave the words, persuasivereminderLeotychides: the Sicilyfleetdoes not turn over tohimto direct, makinghimdo not worry about the business of navy.
很快,米尔提亚斯作出的回应不出穆克鲁的预料,他不但拒绝了列奥提齐德斯让他巡航的提议,并且还让穆克鲁带话,婉转的提醒列奥提齐德斯:西西里舰队并不归他指挥,让他不要操心海军的事务。Leotychidesraresentin the mansionstirred a fire, butdid not have the means.列奥提齐德斯难得的在府邸里发了一通火,但也毫无办法。
The timetoafternoon, the mounted scoutreturned toSellinNuse, brought a bad news: TheyinMazzara, so thatnear the coast, discovered that onmanybeachesgatheredmanyCarthagesoldiers, ships.
时间到了下午,侦骑返回塞林努斯,带来了一个坏消息:他们在马扎拉至利利俾的海岸边,发现多处海滩上聚集了很多迦太基士兵,还有船只。
The Carthagearmyis landing! Leotychidesveryeasymade the judgment.迦太基军队在登陆!列奥提齐德斯很容易的就做出了判断。„Sends peopleto tellMilTiyas, makinghimlook at the office.” The Leotychidescorners of the mouthcast aside, saying that tauntedin a tone with, it seems likebeforehandMilTiyas'sresponsemadehimbe offendedvery much.
“派人去告诉米尔提亚斯,让他看着办。”列奥提齐德斯嘴角微撇,语带嘲讽的说道,看来之前米尔提亚斯的回应让他很是介怀。„Immediatelygathers the eighthregiment and preparationarmy, along withmeattacksMazzara'scoast!”Finally, Leotychidesissued the order.
“立刻集合第八军团和预备部队,随我出击马扎拉的海岸!”最后,列奥提齐德斯下达了命令。„Yes!”
“是!”..........................................

为了便于了解和监督整支军队士兵在迦太基和乌蒂卡港口的登船情况,玛哥几乎是处于最后一批乘船部队的前列进入了利利俾港口。Justmounted the wharf, hereceived, so that the citylordImmiSerez and CarthagearmyforcommanderAdmiland othersishead the warmwelcome of big or smallofficial, everyonenumerousmonthsheld the stargeneralpushed forward the citymainmansionhim.
刚登上码头,他就受到了利利俾城主伊米瑟雷、迦太基军队代统帅阿德米卡等为首的大小官员的热烈欢迎,大家众月捧星一般的将他拥进了城主府邸。Magonjustsat well, but alsowithout the speech, transmittedwith enough timehad„tens of thousandsTheoniaarmiesto haveSellinNusecity, marchto the west” the news.玛哥刚刚坐定,还没来得及说话,就传来了有“几万戴奥尼亚军队出了塞林努斯城、向西行军”的消息。Most peopleon the scenefeltanxious, Magonorderedresolutely: „Immediately the gatheringarmy, goesto intercept!”
在场的大多数人都感到了紧张,玛哥却毅然下令:“立刻集合部队,前往截击!”So thatis the militaryfort, in the cityoriginallyseveralmilitary compounds, before more than 10,000NummiBiyasoldiersstationed in( army that formerMontaDesnotled), yesterdayenteredapproximately20,000Iberiasoldiers who Hasdrubal the Fairled, Brother Maordersthemto gatherhand/subordinaterapidly, to be cautious, healsotook6000Iberiasoldiers who justlandedto enter a citysimultaneously.
利利俾是个军事要塞,城内本就有好几个军营,之前就有1万多名努米比亚士兵驻扎(原蒙特阿德诺率领的军队),昨天又进驻了哈斯德鲁巴所率领的约2万名伊比利亚士兵,马哥命令手下将他们迅速集合起来,为了谨慎起见,他同时还带上了刚刚登陆进城的6000名伊比利亚士兵。Leotychidesleads the armyto brave wind and rain, normalmarchingalsobecomessomewhatdifficult, thereforespent for nearlythreehoursto approach the Mazzaracity.列奥提齐德斯率领军队顶风冒雨,正常的行军也变得有些困难,所以花费了近三个小时才逼近马扎拉城。At this time, heobtained the return of mounted scout: A Carthagearmyfrom, so thatcompelstothem, itsquantitymore than30,000people.
这时,他得到侦骑的回报:一支迦太基军队正从利利俾向他们逼来,其数量不下3万人。
Since a Heraclea Minoawar and TheoniaarmycaptureSellinNuse, Leotychidesthinksvariousmeanstemptto withdraw, so that the SaigeStarck, Mazzaraand othercity in the enemiesgo out of town the battle, with the aim ofachieving the good resultagain, butcannotsucceed.
自从米诺亚一战、戴奥尼亚军队夺取塞林努斯之后,列奥提齐德斯就想了各种办法引诱龟缩在利利俾、塞格斯塔、马扎拉等城内的敌人出城交战,以便再创佳绩,但一直未能成功。Now the Carthagearmygoes out of townfinally, Leotychideshesitated. AlthoughMilojawarexposedthenCarthagearmydespondency and battle efficiencyto be low, butthishas not madeLeotychidesconceited, through the informationheknows the Iberiaarmy that onceattacked and occupiedSerttiOehmwas not be ignored, nowfrom the Carthagearmy that so thatcaught up withinevitably was also led by him . Moreover the population of hissoldieralsofarexceededhimto lead the population of team.
现在迦太基的军队终于出城了,列奥提齐德斯却犹豫了。虽然米洛亚一战暴露出当时的迦太基军队士气低落、战斗力低下,但这并没有让列奥提齐德斯变得狂妄自大,通过情报他知道曾经攻占塞尔迪厄姆的伊比利亚军队不可小视,现在正从利利俾赶来的迦太基军队必然也是以其为主力,而且其士兵的人数也远超过他所率队伍的人数。In the Theoniaarmy in SellinNuse'sthese days, becausedid not have the warto happen, manyfriendlycity-statesoldiershad returned tooneselfhomelandrespectively, preparesto preparefor the forthcomingharvestseason, but after the secondfleetarrives atSicily, MilTiyasonceprotestedtoLeotychides: Reorganizes the light infantry the Theonianavy'soutstandingcrewarbitrarily, when acts the regimentbattlesattached( refers to the tens of thousandsSicilyfleetcrewpart in stormby luckliving).
在戴奥尼亚军队驻留在塞林努斯的这段时间里,由于一直没有战事发生,不少友好城邦士兵已经各自返回了自己的家园,准备为即将到来的丰收季做准备,而第二舰队到达西西里之后,米尔提亚斯就曾经向列奥提齐德斯抗议:擅自将戴奥尼亚海军优秀的船员改编成轻装步兵,充当军团作战时的附属(指的是在风暴中侥幸活下来的几万名西西里舰队船员中的一部分)。Andhealsoappealed to the military affairssectionthis matter, finallyLeotychideshas toputthesecrewto return to the Cataniaplain the naval base, armypopulation that thereforeLeotychidesleadsnowjust now20,000over, inSellinNusecityalso more than 3000allysoldiersremained, thisishenowin the entire force of westSicilyhaving.
他并且还将此事上告军务部,最后列奥提齐德斯不得不放这些船员返回卡塔尼亚平原的海军基地,所以列奥提齐德斯现在所率的军队人数才刚两万出头,塞林努斯城内还有3000多名友邦士兵留守,这就是他现在在西西里西部所拥有的全部兵力。Hethinks the Carthagearmylandsunder such badweatherdefinitelywill cause the temporaryconfusion, never expected thatattack of Carthaginianssofast.
他原本认为迦太基军队在这样恶劣的天气下登陆必然会造成一时的混乱,没想到迦太基人的出击如此的快速。Hisvisionis taking a fast look around the sidefully-armedregimentsoldier, theyfullareon the face of rainwaterare demonstratingexhaustedly. Onlyhesitant the moment, operationalalways not blindimpulsiveLeotychidestheneliminatedwithcatching up the idea that the Carthagearmyfights, the orderarmystopsleading the way, immediatelyreturns toSellinNuse.
他的目光扫视着身旁全副武装的军团士兵,他们满是雨水的脸上显示着疲惫。只犹豫了片刻,作战一向不盲目冲动的列奥提齐德斯便打消了与赶来的迦太基军队一战的想法,命令军队停止前行,立刻返回塞林努斯。Runs a fruitless errand the soldiers who one, was drenched the drenched chickenquiteto have the complaint.
白跑一趟、被淋成落汤鸡的士兵们对此颇有抱怨。Leotychidesregarding thisanddoes not care, whathecaresis the Sicilyfleetwhetherto can have harvested.列奥提齐德斯对此并不在意,他在意的是西西里舰队能否有所收获。.............................................
………………………………………MilTiyasafterobtaining the adjutantCrue'sreminder, consideringhimandLeotychidesbadrelations, has not entirely believedCrue'swords, thereforehehas not led the fleetto go to seaimmediately, butsent out the express steamerto go to the western watersto do an inspection.
米尔提亚斯在得到副官穆克鲁的提醒之后,鉴于他与列奥提齐德斯的糟糕关系,并没有完全相信穆克鲁的话,所以他并没有立刻带领舰队出海,而是派出了快船前往西部海域巡查。
After having been confirmed that hethenleads the fleetto leave porthurriedly. Thisin the course of contacts, in addition the fleetnavigatesagainst the wind, whenbypasses the cape, rushes to the Mazzaracoastal water, is the dusktime, the shipclass/flowsuch aswoveandlived it upin the unusualsea levelbasicallyto return tonormal, landing of Carthagearmyhad ended, is following close on the transportation that military baggageandhorses that are in progresswas also completedmost probably.
得到证实之后,他这才匆忙的率领舰队出港。这一来二去,再加上舰队是逆风航行,等到绕过海角、赶到马扎拉附近海域时,已经是黄昏时候,原本船流如织、热闹异常的海面上基本恢复了平静,迦太基大军的登陆已经结束,紧跟着进行的辎重和马匹的运输也完成了大半。Inobserving the Carthageexpress steamer of Theoniafleettrendinformedalsoshipson the wayrapidly, partreturns toCarthageimmediately, beachandharbor that partsteps upto crash inSicily, therefore the Theoniafleetlooked around forsome timeinthissea area, sankandcaughtmore than tenfreightersmerely, althoughtheyalsooftenlooked into the distanceto anchornumerousCarthageshipsonbeach, butactuallydoes not dareto approach the attack, becausehadmanyCarthagesoldiersonthesebeaches, the navygave upownadvantagefighting the ground warfareobviouslyis the stupidapproach, because the weatherwas dim, the stormwas big, causedtwowarshipsto strike a reefcarelessly the submersion..
一直在观察戴奥尼亚舰队动向的迦太基快船迅速通知了还在途中的船只,一部分立刻回返迦太基,一部分加紧冲进西西里的海滩和港口,所以戴奥尼亚舰队在这片海域四处搜寻了一段时间,也仅仅撞沉和捕获了十几艘货船,虽然他们也不时眺望到停靠在海滩上的众多迦太基船只,但是却不敢靠近袭击,因为在这些海滩上都有很多的迦太基士兵,海军放弃自身的优势去打陆战明显是愚蠢的做法,而且因为天色昏暗,风浪较大,还造成两艘战船不慎触礁沉没。Therefore, MilTiyashas toorderto return, hismood has been very on the way despondent: The Carthagearmycansucceedto landSicily, hemusttake very bigresponsibility, Davosyour majesty, the military affairssectionwill not look but not see......
因此,米尔提亚斯不得不下令返航,在途中他心情一直很抑郁:迦太基军队能够成功登陆西西里,他要负很大的责任,无论是戴弗斯陛下、还是军务部都不会对此视而不见…….............................................
………………………………………Over the following several days, the Sicilywesternwarpresents a strangetranquility.
接下来的几天,西西里西部的战局呈现出一种诡异的平静。
The Carthageaspect, after Magonis busyreorganizinglanding , the chaoticarmy, will scatter the commodityincoastto ship back, so that healsofinds the timesimultaneously, receives the envoy in officialandallied country in Carthagechildnation, understoodin detail the Sicilysituation, heevenalsosummonedbyMontaCaptainDesnotdesolateSiculiHacaudNice.迦太基方面,玛哥忙着整编登陆后混乱的军队,将散落在海岸上的物资运回利利俾,同时他还抽出时间,接见迦太基子邦的官员和盟邦的使者,详细了解西西里的情况,他甚至还召见了备受蒙特阿德诺冷落的西凯尔首领阿科尼斯。In the Theoniaaspect, Leotychidesno longersends out the armyto destroy the paddies and village of opponent, butiscommands the soldiersto reinforcecity garrison.
在戴奥尼亚方面,列奥提齐德斯不再派出军队去破坏对手的田地和村庄,而是命令士兵们加固城防。In fact, since seizingSellinNuse, hehas been doingthismatter, becausehisveryclearHeraclea Minoawarbeing insufficientmakesCarthagehave a fracture, insteadwill bring in a Carthagefiercercounter-attack, the Sicilysouth coastas the mainattackroute of Carthagearmy, SellinNusesituated inthisroutebeginningappearedveryimportant, so long asperseveredit, can the Carthagearmy to further the Theoniafriendlycity-stateterritoryattackmanufactureverybigbarrier of south coast, help the strategic goal that completedKing Davosto give.
实际上,自从占领塞林努斯之后,他就一直在做这件事,因为他很清楚米诺亚一战不足以让迦太基伤筋动骨,反而会引来迦太基更猛烈的反击,西西里南海岸作为迦太基军队的主要进攻路线,位于这条路线起点的塞林努斯就显得十分重要了,只要坚守住它,就能给迦太基军队进一步向南海岸的戴奥尼亚友好城邦领地进攻制造很大的障碍,有助于完成戴弗斯国王所赋予的战略目的。Meanwhile, Leotychidesalsosends out the messengerto hurry back toCatania, informs the newcombat situationtoSiprus, healsoand otherfriendlycity-stateseeks the reinforcementstoHeraclea Minoa, Agrigento, Gelaagain, tostrengthenSellinNuse'sdefense strength.
同时,列奥提齐德斯还派出信使赶回卡塔奈,向西普洛斯通知新的战情,他还向米诺亚、阿格里真托、杰拉等友好城邦再次寻求援军,以增强塞林努斯的防御力量。Leotychideshopes that fightsto happen the later the better, Magoncould not actually have waited, after allheincouncilhas madecommitment- in a year expelsSicilyTheonian. Thereforethreedayslater, the enormous and powerfulCarthagearmysurroundsSellinNuseall round.列奥提齐德斯希望战斗发生得越晚越好,玛哥却已经等不及了,毕竟他可是在元老院许下过承诺-一年内将戴奥尼亚人赶出西西里。于是三天之后,浩浩荡荡的迦太基大军就将塞林努斯团团包围。
The Magonorderarmystartsto construct the camp, simultaneouslylets the engineer and carpenterbuilds the attacking a cityinstrument.玛哥命令军队开始修建营地,同时让工程师和木匠打造攻城器械。After the campbegins to take shape, hestartsto send outseveral thousandlight infantry who formbyvariousSicilyallied countriesto startgradually the trapandbarrier of cleaning plugLinnuscitysurrounding.
在营地初具规模之后,他开始派出由西西里各盟邦组建的几千名轻装步兵开始逐步清除塞林努斯城外围的陷阱、障碍。Leotychideswill certainly not permit the enemysoeasilyapproachesbefore the trench, thereforehenot onlyorders the garrison troops of toptoanyto enterunder the city the enemy of attackrangeto launch the fiercelong-distanceattack, but alsooftenorganizesseveral hundredover a thousandlightarmor-clad soldiers, whileitsunprepared, goes out of town the surprise attack the enemy who is busy with the cleaning upbarrier.列奥提齐德斯当然不会允许敌人如此轻易的就逼近到壕沟前,因此他不但命令城头的守军对任何进入城下攻击范围的敌人进行猛烈的远程攻击,而且还不时组织几百上千的轻甲兵,趁其不备,出城突袭正忙于清理障碍的敌人。
The Leotychidesactivedefensetacticgavewas eliminatingunder the cityCarthagesoldier'sbigkilling of barrier, butseveraldayslater, the encirclement ring of CarthagetoSellinNusestillingradualreduction.列奥提齐德斯积极主动的防御战术给予了正在清除城下障碍的迦太基士兵不小的杀伤,但是几天下来,迦太基对塞林努斯的包围圈仍在逐渐的缩小。RegardinghavingMagon of approximately120,000armies, somecasualtiesscratch an itch in the bootsimply, does not haveany influence on him, butrelies on the strongmilitary forceto be the backing, clean-up of CarthaginiansoutsidetoSellinNusecityis actually interrupted.
对于拥有约十二万大军的玛哥来说,些许死伤简直就是隔靴搔痒,对他不造成任何影响,而凭借着强大的军力作为后盾,迦太基人对塞林努斯城外的清理工作却一直未被中断过。With the Carthagearmymethodicaladvancementundercity, andstrengthened the guardto the garrison troopssurprise attack, the Theoniaarmyaftereatinghave slightly owed1-2 times, reduces the number of times that went out of townto attack.
随着迦太基军队有条不紊的在城下的推进,并且加强了对守军突袭的防范,戴奥尼亚军队在吃过1-2小亏之后,也减少了出城突击的次数。Quick, Carthaginiansdisplayeddozenscrossbowartillerybefore the city, uninterruptedshellsSellinNuse'scity wallwith the marbles.
很快,迦太基人在城前摆上了几十架弩炮,不间断的用石弹轰击塞林努斯的城墙。Because the Theoniaregimenthas the city wallattack and defensetrainingin the usualmilitary training, howregardingto guard againstattacking a citysharp weapon- crossbowartillery, they have certainlyoneselfresearch. Letting in the city wall and citybesides the crossbowartillery that arrangesto the crossbowartillery of enemycarries out the accurateattack, Leotychidesalsomakes the soldierscollectmassively the fishing net of harborfisherman, hangsto decoratefrom the top, coverson the wall, by the impulse of cushionmarbles.
由于戴奥尼亚军团在平时的军事训练中就有城墙攻防训练,对于如何防备攻城利器-弩炮,他们当然也有自己的研究。除了让城墙上和城内布置的弩炮对敌人的弩炮进行精准打击之外,列奥提齐德斯还让士兵们将港口渔民的渔网大量收集起来,从城头垂缀下来,覆盖在墙壁上,以缓冲石弹的冲击力。
