When the chief hissing shouted loudly „retreating”, the light infantries felt relieved rapid retreated backward, through the phalanx crevice, arrived at the rear area. But to this time, their population also has approximately 700 people, almost everyone more or less has the injury. 当大队长嘶声高喊“撤退”之时,轻步兵们如释重负的迅速向后撤退,通过方阵的空隙,到达后方。而到此时,他们的人数还有约700人,几乎人人都或多或少带着伤势。 The eighth regiment when being away from Carthage army 50 meters away, slowed down the speed of advance, and rapid the checking array will transform close phalanx. 第八军团在距离迦太基军阵50米之外时,放慢了前进的速度,并且迅速将棋盘格阵列转变成紧密的方阵。 But Baleares stone soldier and Luthy Tanja javelin also seized the chance to withdraw the narrow and small space between both armies, their casualties about 200 people, were in the upper hand slightly. 而巴利阿里投石兵和卢西塔尼亚标枪手也趁机撤出了两军之间的狭小的空间,他们伤亡近200人,稍占上风。 After the light infantry who the eighth regiment soldiers see the opposite party withdraws, step forward slows down, simultaneously extracts the javelin, prepares in advance. 第八军团士兵见对方的轻步兵退出之后,向前的步伐减缓,同时抽出标枪,预做准备。 But at this time, the opposite was also at the static condition Phoenicia- Nummi Biya infantry under team officers' order, suddenly started the great leap, prepared to start the charge to the eighth regiment. 而这时,对面还处于静止状态的腓尼基-努米比亚步兵在队官们的命令下,突然开始大步前进,准备向第八军团发动冲锋。 The action of calf infantry disrupted the offensive rhythm of eighth regiment, the soldiers after projecting the 1st round of javelin, has to conduct the charge, slaughtered with the enemy in one. 腓努步兵的这一举动打乱了第八军团的进攻节奏,士兵们在投出第一轮标枪之后,就不得不进行冲锋,同敌人厮杀在了一起。 ............................................. ……………………………………… Compared with the hurricane advance of right flank, center and left flank of Theonia allied armies still in advance slowly, but center and right flank of Carthage army static are also freezing, even is still arranging formation, compared with the well-trained calf infantry, Iberia infantry, Luthy Tanja soldiers appeared somewhat dilatory, good right flank had Hasdrubal the Fair, under his great shout and direction, right flank Iberia person and Luthy Talia person unexpectedly after row good, on impatient advance. 和右翼的狂飙突进相比,戴奥尼亚联军的中路和左翼依然在缓缓的前进,而迦太基军队的中路和右翼还静止在原地不动,甚至还在排列阵型,和训练有素的腓努步兵相比,无论是伊比利亚步兵,还是卢西塔尼亚战士都显得有些拖沓了,还好右翼有哈斯德鲁巴在阵中,在他的大声呼喊和指挥下,右翼的伊比利亚人和卢西塔利亚人竟然在列好阵之后,就迫不及待的前进了。 The speed that especially the farthest right side Luthy Talia person, they runs is quick. 尤其是最右端的卢西塔利亚人,他们奔跑的速度很快。 At this time, both sides are distanced hundred meters, left flank of allied armies still in at a moderate pace advance, the Camarina soldiers actually penetrates the Corinth helmet narrow and small eye socket, among discovery a blink the opposite party rushed to the near impressively, the team officers then hurried to order to charge, but the speed is incomplete, Luthy Tanja soldier hit. 此时,双方相距百米,联军的左翼还在不紧不慢的前进,卡曼利纳的士兵们却透过科林斯头盔狭小的眼孔,赫然发现一眨眼间对方就冲到了近前,队官们这才慌忙下令冲锋,但速度还未完全起来,卢西塔尼亚战士就撞了上来。 The strong strength transmits by the round shield, if not behind the thick array as the support, perhaps the Camarina soldier of most front row will be hit to fly. But therefore, they were also hit unstaily, lost the best posture of defense. 强劲的力量透过圆盾传递到身上,如果不是身后厚实的阵列作为支撑,最前列的卡曼利纳士兵恐怕会被撞飞出去。但既是如此,他们也被撞得东倒西歪,丧失了防御的最佳姿势。 Luthy Tanja soldier will certainly not let up this excellent opportunity, in the hand the sharp Catta short-sword vicious straight thrust comes. 卢西塔尼亚战士当然不会放过这个大好的机会,手中锋利的法卡塔短剑凶狠的直刺过来。 The Camarina soldier is calling out pitifully one after another dropping down, but the soldier who defends this attack also has a lingering fear, big tall and strong, the look fierce enemy had one to dread to front these figure. 卡曼利纳士兵相继惨叫着倒下,而防住这次攻击的士兵也是心有余悸,对面前的这些身形高大魁梧、相貌凶恶的敌人产生了一丝畏惧。 .......................................... …………………………………… After center both sides also draw close to finally, the battle of Theonia allied armies and Carthage army had entered the comprehensive fight, battle battle formation of both sides is completely a big oblique line, the north army most depends on west, the south army most depends on east. 当在中路的双方终于也贴近之后,戴奥尼亚联军和迦太基军队的会战已经进入了全面的战斗,双方的厮杀阵势完全是一条大斜线,北面的军队最靠西,南面的军队最靠东。 The dust and fog that more than three-mile battleline was slaughtered the soldier who stirs unceasingly by both sides to cover, resounds the slogan, to slaughter and scream everywhere...... in a big noise blurred length and breadth battlefield, Leotychides even having a limited view is unable to achieve, only he can rely on distributes the mounted scout behind battlefield, their often the combat situation of position, the return gives center rear Leotychides. 长达三里多的阵线被双方厮杀的士兵不断搅起的尘雾所笼罩,处处响起呐喊声、厮杀声、惨叫声……在如此大的一个喧嚣迷离的广袤战场,列奥提齐德斯甚至连管中窥豹都无法做到,他唯一可以依赖的就是分布在战阵后方的侦骑,他们不时的将自己所处位置的战情,回报给中路后方的列奥提齐德斯。 Are the soldiers going forward or retroceding? Is the casualties many opposite party casualties are many? The previous issue is very easy to make to observe, then an issue needs to rely on mounted scout own judgment ability. But these situations that the mounted scout returns record by Crue finally on its own plank, based on this judges the war the fit and unfit quality. 士兵们是在前进还是后退？是己方伤亡多还是对方伤亡多？前一个问题是很容易作出观察出来,而后一个问题则更需要依赖侦骑自身的判断能力。而侦骑回报的这些情况最终都由穆克鲁记录在自己携带的木板上,据此来判断战局的优劣。 „Commander Sir, you looked that-” Crue serious lifts the plank to Leotychides at present: „When this was just the engagement situation! This is the present situation! Our left flank have retroceded a big truncation, center had the retreat slightly, but the right flank forward progress of our eighth regiment are not many!” “指挥官大人,你看-”穆克鲁神情严肃的将木板举到列奥提齐德斯眼前:“这是刚接战时的情况！这是现在的情况！我们的左翼已经后退了一大截,中路稍有后退,而我们第八军团的右翼向前进展的并不多！” Leotychides is staring the situation that the plank that wrote all over the data, the mounted scout reports in fact he listens in the ear, roughly have several at heart, but on this plank draws up more direct-viewing clear. 列奥提齐德斯凝视着写满了数据的木板,事实上侦骑所汇报的情况他都听在耳里,心里大致有数,只是这木板上绘制的更加直观清晰。 Leotychides that the indifferent face becomes gloomy: Can say, when fought just started, his was relaxed, because his initial plan obtained realization, the set up formation that Carthaginians truly aimed at him first to decorate army that conducts to blindly follow suit, both sides turned into the heavy infantry contest face-to-face. He thinks that depending on can definitely form long-term being locked in a stalemate with the Greek Hoplite strong defensive power, thus the physical strength of bigger consumption opposite party soldier, the implementation that benefits his next step to plan. What he has not thought that fought merely for a half hour, left flank was in the disadvantage. 列奥提齐德斯那本就冷漠的脸变得更加的阴沉:可以说在战斗刚开始的时候,他的心情还是放松的,因为他最初的计划得到了实现,迦太基人确实针对他先摆设的军阵进行亦步亦趋的布阵,双方变成了面对面的重步兵较量。他认为凭借着希腊重步兵超强的防御力完全可以形成长时间的相持,从而更大的消耗对方士兵的体力,有利于他下一步计划的实施。他万万没有想到的是,仅仅战斗了半个小时,左翼就处于了劣势。 His determination has taken seriously this Carthage army, but enemy's performance went beyond his expectation. 他自觉已经非常重视这一支迦太基军队,但敌人的表现还是超出了他的预料。 „Makes the cavalry corps attack.” He hesitated a meeting, issued the order. “让骑兵军团出击。”他沉吟了一会,下达了命令。 In Crue heart slightly startled, he knows that the original combat plan is not this, but after must wait till both sides long-term battle, somewhat is exhausted, even the right flank eighth regiment also gets the obvious winning side, attack of 4 th cavalry corps will ensure the victory finally one step, but currently it is actually used ahead of schedule. 穆克鲁心中微惊,他知道原先的作战计划不是这样的,而是要等到双方长时间的厮杀、都有些疲惫之后,甚至右翼的第八军团还占据着明显的上风,第四骑兵军团的出击将是最后奠定胜局的一步,而现在它却被提早使用了出来。 Naturally, Crue has not advised, he knows that now the situation somewhat is slightly disadvantageous to the allied armies. 当然,穆克鲁没有劝阻,他知道现在局势对联军稍微有些不利。 „Waits for.” Leotychides does to hesitate slightly, said again decisively: „Lets the light armor-clad soldier brigade and light infantry brigade follows the cavalry, attacks the Carthaginians left flank rear together!” “等一下。”列奥提齐德斯稍作迟疑,再次果断说道:“让轻甲兵大队和轻步兵大队跟随骑兵,一起攻击迦太基人左翼的侧后！” Crue stares, this he cannot bear remind time: „Commander Sir, the light armor-clad soldier brigade is our only reserve forces!” 穆克鲁一愣,这一次他忍不住提醒道:“指挥官大人,轻甲兵大队可是我们唯一的预备队！” „Carthaginians has the stone soldier, the threat to the cavalry is very big.” Leotychides calm saying: „Reserve forces use at crucial moment, but now had arrived at the crucial time.” “迦太基人有投石兵,对骑兵的威胁很大。”列奥提齐德斯冷静的说道:“预备队就是在关键的时候使用,而现在已经到了关键的时刻。” Crue has not spoken again, when sends the messenger to hurry to inform these three armies, he some anxious, after all Leotychides few achievement chips will press in Carthaginians left flank, from now on will also lose interfered with the entire war again the ability. 穆克鲁没有再说话,在派传令兵赶去通知这三支部队的时候,他心里有些许不安,毕竟列奥提齐德斯将为数不多的获胜筹码都压在了迦太基人的左翼,自此也就失去了再干涉整个战局的能力。 Has waited for a half hour of 4 th cavalry corps and allied force cavalries in the right flank rear area has been unbearably anxious, therefore after being under the order of attack, legatus pushes to the front, other cavalries follow, the 1000 cavalries of 4 th cavalry corps form the long garrison that the row is 4 rides, later those who follow is 300 ally cavalries. 已经在右翼的后方等候了半个小时的第四骑兵军团和友军骑兵早已经是急不可耐,因此得到出击的命令后,军团长一马当先,其他骑兵紧随其后,第四骑兵军团的1000名骑兵形成了横列为四骑的长长纵队,随后跟着的是300名友邦骑兵。 The Theonia 4 th cavalry corps are in the kingdom four big cavalry corps strength weakest one, Bruttii in the Magna Graecia territory and Messapi, Peuceti is the race that is good at breeding horses, has ability that provides the cavalry, but in the Sicily territory does not meet such requirement. Moreover the raising warhorse is different from the ordinary horses, it not only needs a lot of fodder, needs rich legumes food, can guarantee that sufficient strength animal transport cavalry, simultaneously frequent control warhorse, is extremely woundable in the fight, trains the horses, therefore often in the cavalry family/home at least needs to raise two, can basically guarantee need that the training and fights. Obviously, raises the warhorse even and breeds and buys and sells the horses to the Theonia rich citizen specially the citizens is a big burden. 戴奥尼亚第四骑兵军团是王国四大骑兵军团之中实力最弱的一支,在大希腊的领地内布鲁提、梅萨皮,普切蒂都算是擅长养马的种族,拥有提供骑兵的能力,而西西里领地内不具备这样的条件。而且饲养战马不同于普通的马匹,它不但需要大量的草料,也需要丰富的豆类食物,才能保证有充足的力气驮载骑兵,同时频繁的驾驭战马,无论是在战斗中、还是训练时马匹都极易受伤,所以往往骑兵家中至少要饲养两匹,才能基本保证训练和战斗的需要。可见,饲养战马即使是对戴奥尼亚富有的公民和专门养殖、买卖马匹的公民都是一个不小的负担。 Tradition that the Sicily territory has not bred horses, moreover refugee who initially these territories' people mostly repeatedly encountered the Syracuse persecution, the rich person are not many, when the 4 th cavalry corps establish at first citizen who registers is few. After these years development, the life big improvement of Sicily territory people, in addition kingdom council multiple through thens out to to become cavalry many preferential bills of citizen, for example the family of cavalry did not need to pay the land tax, every month provided the subsidy of certain amount...... to say to each cavalry by the military affairs section, the cavalry was in various Theonia branches of armed services takes the army of fixed pay only. Under the stimulation of these favorable factors, the population of 4 th cavalry corps also just now crosses 1000, is far from the fulfillment. 西西里领地并没有养马的传统,而且当初这些领地的民众大多都是多次遭到锡拉库扎迫害的流民,富有的人并不多,第四骑兵军团最初建立时报名的公民很少。经过这些年的发展,西西里领地民众的生活大大改善,再加上王国元老院多次通过了对成为骑兵的公民的诸多优惠的法案,比如骑兵的家庭不用缴纳土地税,每月由军务部给每名骑兵发放一定数额的补贴……可以说,骑兵是戴奥尼亚各军种中唯一拿固定薪酬的军队。在这些有利因素的刺激下,第四骑兵军团的人数也才刚过1000,远远没有满额。 In these years, the fourth cavalry corps passed in the military compound continuously, has not gone through the war. But this war from start to the present, they also act as the supporting role, has not performed the oversized merit, the cavalries long for proves itself, therefore they bypass army right flank, after the left flank rear several hundred meters external bracing of enemy had/left a long arc, legatus Axite Meese under the influence of surroundings soldiers extremely stimulated militancy, intended neglected the urging of Leotychides, has not waited for the light armor-clad soldier brigade and arrival of light infantry brigade same place, but is the decision first exploratory attack. 在这些年来,第四骑兵军团一直在军营中度过,还未经历过战争。而这一场战争从开始到现在,他们也只是充当配角,没有立下过大的功绩,骑兵们都渴望的证明自己,所以他们绕过军阵的右翼、在敌人的左翼后方几百米外拉出了一条长长的弧线之后,军团长阿西特米斯在周围士兵们极度亢奋的好战情绪的影响下,有意的忽略了列奥提齐德斯的叮嘱,并没有原地等待轻甲兵大队和轻步兵大队的到来,而是决定先试探性的进攻。 After the cavalries are under the order to attack, starts to control the horses, the half step jogs, finally the speed has not raised, first was attacked by Baleares stone soldier flying stone, even is away from beyond several hundred meters, the flying stone of Baleares person still had suitably, moreover they intend the goal centralized on horses, with skin Kui, compared with skin armor the cavalry, warhorse sensitive animal is intimate a lead shot, immediately calls to jump, will ride in immediately soldier drops out, startled running all over the place in all directions. 骑兵们得到进攻命令之后,开始驾驭马匹,小步慢跑,结果速度还没提起来,就先遭到了巴利阿里投石兵的飞石攻击,即使距离在几百米之外,巴利阿里人的飞石仍然有相当的准度,而且他们把目标有意的集中在马匹上,和皮盔、皮甲的骑兵相比,战马这种敏感的动物挨上一颗铅丸,立刻又叫又跳,将骑在马上的士兵抛下,惊慌的四处乱跑。 Suddenly, the neighing rises from all directions, but falls falls on chases own warhorse that the cavalries of place worry, a scene confusion, the attack is suspended. 一时间,马嘶声四起,而摔落在地的骑兵们着急的去追赶自己的战马,场面一片混乱,进攻被迫中止。 Axite Meese collected the cavalry with great difficulty, after rough statistics, lost more than 90 cavalries, achieved 110 of regiment population unexpectedly, the big feeling is grieved, does not dare to handle affairs again rashly, but is static and other arrivals of helper. 阿西特米斯好不容易重新归拢了骑兵,粗略的统计之后,损失了90多名骑兵,竟然达到了军团人数的110,不禁大感心痛,再也没敢贸然行事,而是静等帮手的到来。 After more than 10 minutes, two brigades rushed. 十多分钟之后,两个大队赶到了。 In the time of waiting, the cavalries have not been idling, Axite Meese sent out the squad cavalries to go to investigate, after paying some casualties prices, brought back about approximate arrangement of Carthaginians behind left flank: The stone soldier of enemy in the distance enemy side battlefield beyond hundred meters, the surface arranged the loose linear array toward the fourth cavalry corps ; There are several hundred javelin in their front, several hundred alien race light infantry guards( as a result of the Celts mostly light upper body, has not been wearing armor, therefore the Theonia cavalry thinks that they are light infantry)...... 在等待的时间里,骑兵们也没有闲着,阿西特米斯派出了小队骑兵前往探查,在付出了一些伤亡代价之后,带回了关于迦太基人在左翼后方的大致布置情况:敌人的投石兵在距离敌方战阵百米之外,面朝第四骑兵军团排列出了松散的线性阵列;在他们前方有几百名标枪手,还有几百名异族轻装步兵护卫(由于凯尔特人大多光着上身,没穿盔甲,因此戴奥尼亚骑兵认为他们是轻装步兵)……
