Carthage is not Rome, many years make the attacking a city experience of its army quite rich with the Syracuse war, moreover its have the sufficient technical capability to realize to attack a city the plan. Magon sees the attack effect of crossbow artillery is not obvious, after thinking, ordered in being away from Sellin Nuse city beyond hundred meters, constructed a city wall, not only need the Sellin Nuse city complete encystation, but also it can not be lower than Sellin Nuse's city wall highly, like this not only can prevent the surprise attack of Theonian, but can also suppress the long-distance attack of opposite party top in turn, benefitted the next step attack. 迦太基不是罗马,多年与锡拉库扎的战争使得其军队的攻城经验比较丰富,而且其有足够的技术能力来实现攻城计划。玛哥见弩炮的攻击效果并不明显,经过思索之后,下令在距离塞林努斯城百米之外,修建一道城墙,不但要将塞林努斯城完全包绕,而且其高度不得低于塞林努斯的城墙,这样不但可以防止戴奥尼亚人的突袭,而且可以反过来压制对方城头的远程攻击,有利于下一步的进攻。 Magon orders, entire military compound about 100,000 soldiers, under the instruction that labor who transports the military baggage innumerably in engineer starts to go into action. 玛哥一声令下,整个军营近十万士兵、无数运送辎重的劳工在工程师的指导下开始行动起来。 The Theonia garrison troops discovered attempt of enemy, once went out of town several times the surprise attack, had protection Carthaginians to repel early. 戴奥尼亚守军发现了敌人的企图,曾经几次出城突袭,被早有防备的迦太基人击退。 Three days later, is rising straight from the ground regarding the dirt wall embryonic form of Sellin Nuse city together. 三天之后,一道围绕塞林努斯城的土墙雏形正拔地而起。 In the Theonia soldiers feel astonished, in the Sellin Nuse city main mansion, Kingdom of Theonia Sicily war zone commander Leotychides and Sicily fleet commander Mil Tiyas meets. 就在戴奥尼亚士兵们感到惊愕之时,在塞林努斯城主府邸,戴奥尼亚王国西西里战区指挥官列奥提齐德斯与西西里舰队统帅米尔提亚斯见面了。 Since Leotychides without the military affairs section authorization, enrolls own army the Sicily fleet crew arbitrarily, violated the interest of Theonia navy, after newly appointed Mirchi Yaaz discovered, both sides on getting into a deadlock, Mil Tiyas moved the harbor, not again and Leotychides has met, reason that this time discussed to the city, also has no recourse. 自从列奥提齐德斯未经军务部批准,擅自将西西里舰队船员编入自己的军队,触犯了戴奥尼亚海军的利益,被新上任的米尔基亚斯发现之后,双方就闹僵了,米尔提亚斯搬去了港口,没有再和列奥提齐德斯见过面,这一次之所以到城内来商议,也是迫不得已。 Because Mil Tiyas worried that occurrence of storm stopped the cruise of warship to Sicily western waters, causing the Carthage army to land Sicily with ease, this is an enormous military mistake. If Leotychides hits a person when he is down in this time, the reporting military affairs section, said that „he once reminded the Sicily fleet not to want repeatedly, because the stress of weather stops to the blockade of western waters, but the Sicily fleet command is stubborn throughout does not listen, causes the Sicily war to have the momentous change......”, as the matter stands not only will increase King Davos and military affairs department's malice to Mil Tiyas, will also likely ruin his future military life, therefore Mil Tiyas held the mentality of admitting defeat to come. 由于米尔提亚斯担心风暴的发生而停止了战船对西西里西部海域的巡弋,导致迦太基的大军轻松的登陆西西里,这是一个极大的军事错误。如果列奥提齐德斯在此时落井下石,上报军务部,说“他曾多次提醒西西里舰队不要因为天气恶劣就停止对西部海域的封锁,但是西西里舰队统帅始终顽固不听,才导致西西里战局出现巨大变化……”,这样一来不但会增加戴弗斯国王和军务部对米尔提亚斯的恶感,还很可能断送他今后的军事生涯,所以米尔提亚斯抱着服软的心态来了。 Leotychides sees him, has not mentioned „the Carthage army lands” the matter, but is straightforward saying: „Mil Tiyas, I prepares the night assault Carthaginians camp, needs the help of your navy.” 列奥提齐德斯见到他,却一句也没有提起“迦太基军队登陆”的事情,而是直截了当的说道:“米尔提亚斯,我准备夜袭迦太基人的营地,需要你们海军的帮助。” One hear of this saying, Mil Tiyas intention racing, then hesitant saying: „...... Night assault Carthaginians camp? Are you preparation from the marine surprise attack? Carthaginians arranged many sentry posts to search near Sellin Nuse's coast, they had the protection...... it is said that that was hundreds of thousands people of camps! We must invest many soldiers to attack, possibly causes the confusion of Carthage camp! Once is not successful, has the danger of being annihilated!” 一听这话,米尔提亚斯心念急转,然后犹豫的说道:“……夜袭迦太基人的营地？你是准备从海上突袭吧？迦太基人可是在塞林努斯的海岸边布置了不少的哨探,他们可是有防备的……据说,那可是十几万人的营地啊！我们要投入多少士兵去突袭,才可能造成迦太基营地的混乱！一旦不成功,就有全军覆没的危险啊！” That heart movement that the Leotychides hear in the Mil Tiyas's hesitant words contained, to convince this with own position suitable colleague, he has to the spend some time, the patience explain: „I will not let the soldiers in nearby coastal landing, such was truly discovered by Carthaginians easily, the place that I choose is here-” 列奥提齐德斯听出了米尔提亚斯犹豫的话语中所蕴藏的那一丝心动,为了说服这位跟自己职位相当的同僚,他不得不花点时间,耐心解释道:“我不会让士兵们在附近的海岸登陆,那样确实容易被迦太基人发现,我选择的地点是在这里-” Leotychides points on the table to describe the schematic diagram of Sellin Nuse city and Carthage camp peripheral environment sketchily. 列奥提齐德斯手指着桌上一副粗略描绘着塞林努斯城与迦太基营地周边环境的草图。 Mil Tiyas hesitated, approaches side Leotychides, carefully looked, discovered place that he points at happen to Sellin Nuse and Germer. 米尔提亚斯迟疑了一下,凑近列奥提齐德斯身旁,仔细一看,发现他手指的地方正好是在塞林努斯与热尔梅之间。 Since taking office the Sicily fleet commands, Mil Tiyas on the direction flagship, repeatedly patrols in the Sicily south coast, is familiar with here sea area environment, this is also the skill that Theonia high-level general must have. At this moment in his mind appears this place approximate picture, the there truly not big beaches, are easy to land, but he reminded: „Germer does not fluctuate to Sellin Nuse's coastal path evenly, during the daytime is not quite good, in the evening was perhaps more difficult!” 自从就任西西里舰队统帅之后,米尔提亚斯就指挥旗舰,反复游弋在西西里的南海岸,熟悉这里的海域环境,这也是戴奥利亚高级将领所必须具备的技能。此刻他的脑海里浮现出这个地点大致的画面,那里确实有一个不大的海滩,易于登陆,但是他提醒道:“热尔梅到塞林努斯的海岸道路起伏不平,白天都不太好走,晚上恐怕更加困难了吧！” „This is I chooses here the reason of landing.” Leotychides confident saying: „There coastal environment is complex, in addition just landed coast of Sicily soon Carthaginians to leading to Germer's is not familiar, this just can avoid our landing being discovered by the enemy. I had inquired harbor fisherman, tonight can be night of the full moon, the soldiers after landing can taking advantage of the moonlight, sneaks close to the mountain forest of coast, about two hours of marching of can approach the Carthaginians camp.” “这正是我选择在这里登陆的原因。”列奥提齐德斯胸有成竹的说道:“那里海岸环境复杂,再加上刚刚登陆西西里不久的迦太基人对通往热尔梅的海岸还不熟悉,这样正可以避免我们的登陆被敌人发现。我询问过港口的渔民,今晚会是一个满月之夜,登陆后的士兵们可以借着月光,潜入靠近海岸的山林,大约两个多小时的行军就可以逼近迦太基人的营地。” The finger of Leotychides transferred to the design of Carthage camp , to continue saying: „ According to these days my return of soldiers careful observation in the top, as well as goes out of town the surprise attack, I think the Iberia army camps that Magon leads should in our north, the army camp from Carthage by our east and wests, in their soldiers should most probably to be Nummi Biya people, was these days builds the main force of dirt wall, after they were busy during the daytime , was very inevitably weary, in the evening fell into inevitably sleeps soundly. 列奥提齐德斯的手指移到了迦太基营地的图案上,继续说道:“根据这段时间我在城头的仔细观察、以及出城突袭的士兵们的回报,我认为玛哥所率领的伊比利亚军队营地应该在我们的北面,来自迦太基的军队营地在我们的东、西两侧,他们的士兵中应该大半是努米比亚人,也是这几天修筑土墙的主力,他们白天忙碌之后必然十分疲劳,晚上必然陷入酣睡。 Moreover for serveral days, Carthage army the entire defense places to protect in this building dirt wall with emphasis, perhaps is negligent in the protection regarding the rear area of his camp, the possibility of surprise attack success will be very big...... I also to gather when the time comes 10,000 heavy infantries in the city, when the surprise attack army will cause the confusion of Carthage camp, goes out of town immediately, broke through this dirt wall, will attack the Carthage camp, will aid them to return to the city, if the situation will very be favorable for us, but can also continue to attack- ” 而且这些天里,迦太基军队将整个防御的重点都放在保护这道正在修筑的土墙上,对于其营地的后方恐怕疏于防备,我们的突袭成功的可能性很大……到时候我还会在城内集合1万名重步兵,等到突袭部队造成迦太基营地的混乱,就立刻出城,冲过这座土墙,攻击迦太基营地,接应他们回城,如果局势对我们很有利,还可以继续进攻-” „If surprise attack failure?” Mil Tiyas interrupts his words suddenly. “如果突袭失败呢？”米尔提亚斯突然打断他的话。 Some Leotychides early considerations, his unhurriedly saying: „I will make them run into the mountain ridge to east, finally returns through Heraclea Minoa.” 列奥提齐德斯早有考虑,他不慌不忙的说道:“我会让他们向东逃入山岭,最终通过米诺亚返回。” Mil Tiyas does not speak, he knows that had ally Siculians in the east mountain ridge, so long as ran into the mountain ridge, the possibility that the security returned to was very big. 米尔提亚斯不说话了,他知道在东面的山岭中有盟友西凯尔人,只要逃入山岭,安全返回的可能性很大。 He is looking at carefully the schematic diagram on table carefully, the vision focuses in wanting the goal of night assault- east Carthage camp situated in Sellin Nuse city, because possibly Carthaginians practicing moderation has the abundant military, therefore the camp constructs in inside and outside one away the city, stands truly can roughly see clearly the Carthage camp in the top, therefore Leotychides can infer the approximate layout of Carthaginians camp, he not too big suspicion. 他仔细的端详着桌上的草图,目光聚焦于要夜袭的目标-位于塞林努斯城东面的迦太基营地,可能由于迦太基人自持拥有雄厚的兵力,因此营地就建在距城一里外,站在城头确实能够大致看清迦太基的营地,因此列奥提齐德斯能够推断出迦太基人营地的大致布局,他并没有太大的怀疑。 At this time, Leotychides also said: „I will send out the light armor-clad soldier brigades and 1000 preparation regiment soldiers of eighth regiment carry out this surprise attack task, I hope that the Sicily fleet respective fleet infantry can also join in this action.” 这时,列奥提齐德斯又说道:“我将派出第八军团的轻甲兵大队和1000名预备军团士兵执行这个突袭任务,我希望西西里舰队所属的舰队步兵也能够参加到这个行动中。” „......” The wish rejection of Mil Tiyas instinct, the words just an exit|to speak, he does not realize that immediately the fleet infantry can attend this night assault, once succeeds, to him absolutely is a good deed, before can reduce him, mistake that makes, he also changes a statement immediately: „This naturally does not have the issue, our fleet infantries most excel lands the surprise attack, I will make them join this surprise attack completely!” “不……”米尔提亚斯本能的想要拒绝,话刚一出口,他立刻意识到舰队步兵能够参加这次夜袭,一旦成功,对他来说绝对是一件好事,可以减轻他之前所犯的错误,他立刻又改口:“这当然没有问题,我们的舰队步兵最擅长的就是登陆突袭,我会让他们全部加入这次的突袭！” Before, in the 4 th fleet that Mil Tiyas led had 3 oar warship 40, crow warship 30, therefore there are fleet infantry 1200 people, in addition, lived by luck in the storm, he altogether had the fleet infantry about 3000 people hand/subordinate. As the matter stands, participation surprise attack soldiers achieved 5000 people. 之前,米尔提亚斯所率领的第四舰队中有三层桨战船40艘,其中乌鸦战船30艘,因此有舰队步兵1200人,再加上之前在风暴中侥幸活下来的,他手下共有舰队步兵大约3000人。这样一来,参与突袭的士兵人数就达到了5000人。 In the Leotychides heart is satisfied, this is he calls one of the Mil Tiyas's primary causes. 列奥提齐德斯心中感到满意,这正是他叫来米尔提亚斯的主要原因之一。 But had the fleet infantry to join this night assault, Mil Tiyas also became positive, he spent to improve this surprise attack to plan with Leotychides for a long time together. 而有了舰队步兵加入这场夜袭,米尔提亚斯也变得积极了许多,他花了很长时间同列奥提齐德斯一起完善这个突袭计划。 ....................................... ………………………………… Magon was awakened in the sleep, hears „a Theonian camp” the news, he is startled. 玛哥是在睡梦中被叫醒的,听到“戴奥尼亚人袭营”的消息,他大吃一惊。 At this time, has the indistinct battle sound to spread to his ear, he quick steps went out of the big tent/account, while the anxious sound asked: „Which camp was attacked?! Some how many enemies?!” 这时,已经有隐约的厮杀声传入他的耳里,他一边疾步走出大帐,一边急声问道:“哪个营地遭到了攻击？！有多少敌人？！” „Should in central Dongying, some concrete many enemies now also not clear......” adjutant's rapid reply. “应该是在东营的中部,具体有多少敌人现在还不清楚……”副官急促的回答。 Magon arrives off-balance, slaughtering and scream was clearer, moreover there are screams that unceasing resounds, the Theonian night assault has started to be startled the soldiers of other camps. 玛哥走到帐外,厮杀声、惨叫声更加的清晰了,而且还有不断响起的惊呼声,戴奥尼亚人的夜袭已经开始将其他营地的士兵惊起。 Magon looks into the distance to east, even has shining of moonlight, but the camp be continuous ten several li (0.5 km) about 100,000 armies, solely are the army big camp from having an accident have several li (0.5 km) road, is as far as eyes can reach dark a piece, cannot see anything. 玛哥向东眺望,即使有月光的照耀,但近10万大军的营地绵延十数里,单单是从中军大营距离出事地就有几里路,一眼望去黑乎乎一片,根本看不到什么。 Magon listened attentively to a while carefully, although the slogan and scream are expanding, but he is not flustered, during conquering the Iberia south, he has encountered too several night assaults, regarding this is very experienced, he is decisive immediately to the adjutant said: „Sends out the messenger, rushes to various camps, informs general, lets soldier who they control his camp, prepares defense, without my order, can not lead troops to go to rescue secretly! If who does not obey the order, I will sew him on the cross!” 玛哥仔细倾听了一会儿,尽管呐喊声、惨叫声在扩大,但他并不慌张,在征服伊比利亚南部期间,他遭遇过太多次的夜袭,对此已经很有经验,他立即果断对副官说道:“派出传令兵,赶到各营地,通知将领们,让他们控制好其营地的士兵,做好防御的准备,没有我的命令,不得私自带兵前去救援！如果谁不听从命令,我会将他钉在十字架上！” The Magon malicious talk stern countenance , because the eastern camp is mainly having the army that is formed by Carthage, its general also many are the aristocrat in Carthage this city, Magon leaves the Carthage more than 10 years, some people may disregard his existence to act presumptuously. 玛哥之所以恶言厉色,是因为东部的营地主要是驻扎着由迦太基组建的军队,其将领也多是迦太基本城的贵族,玛哥离开迦太基十多年,有些人可能会无视他的存在而擅自行动。 The messengers dash about wildly to go, after general of army big camp receive the emergency call , rushed to the big tent/account quickly. 传令兵们狂奔而去,中军大营的将领们则受到紧急召唤后、很快赶到了大帐。 Magon directly issues the order to them again: „Immediately goes to gather your soldiers, leads the subordinate unit defense camp besides Tarkka, other armies follow camp that I rescue to be attacked-” 玛哥再次直接对他们下达命令:“立刻去集合你们手下的士兵,除了塔尔卡带领所属部队防御营地之外,其他军队跟随我去救援受袭的营地-” Magon finishes barely the words, off-balance hears the deafening roar suddenly, some people in tent/account hears the look changes. 玛哥话音未落,帐外突然传来震耳欲聋的吼声,帐内的一些人闻之色变。 The adjutant flushed, anxious shouting: „Sir, Theonian sent out the army from the city, the converging attack the east camp!” 副官冲了进来,急切的喊道:“大人,戴奥尼亚人从城内派出军队,夹击了东面的营地！” The Magon look is calm, and also showed the smile: „Hears this sound, the soldier who Theonian sends perhaps also much, that was really good! We happen to can catch the whole lot in a dragnet them, when attacks Sellin Nuse city again was more relaxed!” 玛哥却神色镇定,并且还露出了笑容:“听这声音,戴奥尼亚人派出来的士兵恐怕还不少,那真是太好了！我们正好可以将他们一网打尽,再进攻塞林努斯城时就轻松多了！”
