In a Heraclea Minoa war, created troublesome some to us besides the Carthage sacred army corps, Carthage other armies collapse at the first blow simply, the army morale of particularly Nummi Biya person comprised is very low, our heavy infantry charge, can cause them to retreat, therefore our armies can easily storm into the west, and forces Carthaginians to withdraw for a long time in each city, does not dare to go out of town to accept a challenge. During this period, we had not found the opportunity, with has guarded in Pale Moss's Iberia army fights. 米诺亚一战中,除了迦太基的神圣兵团给我们造成了一些麻烦之外,迦太基的其他部队简直不堪一击,尤其是由努米比亚人组成的军队士气很低,我们的重步兵一个冲锋,就能导致他们溃退,所以我们的军队能够轻易的攻入了西部,并且迫使迦太基人长时间龟缩在各个城内,一直不敢出城应战。在这期间,我们没有找到机会,与一直驻守在帕勒莫斯的伊比利亚军队交手。 After Carthage sends out for the second time the army lands Sicily, the situation had the change, first command of Carthage is because Governor Iberia Magon holds the post, he battles in Iberia for a long time, has rich battlefield experience. Synthesizes the information in various aspects, this Magon brought more than 20,000 soldiers from Iberia, in addition in the Pale Moss's 2 ten thousand Iberia famous soldiers, in the Sicily island had more than 40,000 Iberia soldiers, their majority is the Carthage mercenary, follows Magon to battle in Iberia for a long time, its battle efficiency is very strong. 等到迦太基第二次派出大军登陆西西里后,情况出现了变化,首先迦太基的统帅是由于伊比利亚总督玛哥担任,他长期在伊比利亚作战,有很丰富的战场经验。综合各方面的情报,这个玛哥伊比利亚又带来了2万多名士兵,加上在帕勒莫斯的二万伊比利亚名士兵,西西里岛上就有了4万多名伊比利亚士兵,他们大部分是迦太基的雇佣兵,长期跟随玛哥伊比利亚作战,其战斗力很强。 In Gela, I lead the eighth regiment and 4 th cavalry corps, to have the army of ally, the same Iberia army conducted the battle, number of both sides differs not in a big way, the eighth regiment fiercely attacks the Iberia heavy infantry, even the 4 th cavalry corps from flank auxiliary attack, but the opposite party actually defends tenaciously, had not retreated- ” 杰拉,我率领第八军团、第四骑兵军团、还有友邦的军队,同一支伊比利亚军队进行了会战,双方的数量相差不大,第八军团猛攻伊比利亚的重步兵,甚至还有第四骑兵军团从侧翼辅助攻击,但对方却始终顽强防御,一直没有溃退-” „?!” Lays mines Lu to hear this, sat the body, on the face showed the surprised look straight, although the serial number of eighth regiment arranged behind the seventh regiment, but the eighth regiment several years ago stilled the Siculi area, before defeated in Heraclea Minoa by Carthaginians called it „the strongest heavy infantry the sacred army corps, its actual combat experience may not have the seventh regiment of fight to be richer than these years, lays mines Lu surface not to acknowledge although, but its heart felt like that perhaps the battle efficiency of eighth regiment strove to excel compared with the 7 th regiment, but the heavy infantry army that now came from Iberia can unexpectedly in the eighth regiment. Is unbeaten with the attack of jointly cavalry corps, this truly makes him be surprised. “哦?!”布雷鲁听到这,坐直了身体,脸上露出吃惊的神色,虽然第八军团的编号排在第七军团后面,但第八军团几年前平定了西凯尔地区,之前又在米诺亚击败了被迦太基人称之为“最强重步兵”的神圣兵团,其实战经验可比这些年一直未有战斗的第七军团丰富,布雷鲁尽管表面不承认,但其内心深处隐隐觉得第八军团的战斗力或许比第七军团要强一点,而现在一支来自伊比利亚的重步兵军队居然能够在第八军团和骑兵军团的联手攻击保持不败,这确实让他感到吃惊。 However in this Carthage army has possibly is the indigenous soldier in Iberia peninsula, they are tall, the attack is aggressive, but can also obey the discipline, most notably- they grasp the long shield and one to take with our regiment soldier similar short-sword, they routed phalanx comprised of Gela and Camarina heavy infantry from the upfront, eventually caused me at the failure of Gela......” Leotychides, when mentioned this matter, the look and tone had no change, as if in saying one had the matter on others. “而这支迦太基军队中有很多可能是伊比利亚半岛上的土著战士,他们身材高大,进攻凶悍,还能够服从纪律,最值得注意的是-他们都是一手持长盾、一手拿着跟我们军团士兵相似的短剑,他们从正面击溃了由杰拉卡曼利纳重步兵组成的方阵,最终导致了我在杰拉的失败……”列奥提齐德斯在提及此事的时候,神色和语气都没有什么变化,仿佛是在说一件发生在别人身上的事。 However, in conference room , was not only lays mines Shangdong, Sekrian and Siprus felt being startled. 但是,在会议室内不光是布雷鲁、就连塞克利安西普洛斯都感到了吃惊。 Looking at it like this, the Carthage army the battle efficiency of heavy infantry from Iberia is not weak in our regiment soldiers!” Siprus cannot bear say, he is like Sekrian, but knows defeat process of Leotychides sketchily in Gela battle, but also does not have the time to make the detailed understanding, suddenly hears the details, unavoidably in heart anxious. “这样看来,来自伊比利亚迦太基军队中重步兵的战斗力并不弱于我们的军团士兵啊!”西普洛斯忍不住说道,他同塞克利安一样,只是粗略知道列奥提齐德斯杰拉会战中的战败过程,还没有时间去做详细的了解,突然听到详情,难免心中不安。 Not is only a heavy infantry, Carthage the light infantries of Iberia army are not weak. In the battle, they have one over a thousand possibly the stone soldier from Balearic Islands, lead shot that throws and ruthless, is not weak the stone soldier in our first regiment light infantry brigade, caused big casualties to the light infantry brigades of eighth regiment, their also several hundred javelin that javelin who indigenous comprised of Iberia, throws not only heavy, but also has the curved hook, once were hit, drew out very much difficultly, the wound that creates is very big, will create massive hemorrhages, but dies, medical treatment and nursing camp regarding this not good way.” At this point , the Leotychides tone slightly is lower and deeper. “不光是重步兵,迦太基伊比利亚军队的轻步兵也不弱。在会战时,他们有一支上千名可能是来自巴利阿里群岛的投石兵,投掷的铅丸又准又狠,并不弱于我们第一军团轻步兵大队中的投石兵,给第八军团的轻步兵大队造成了不小的伤亡,它们还有几百名由伊比利亚土著组成的标枪手,所投掷的标枪不但沉重,而且带有弯钩,一旦被击中,很难被拔出,所造成的创口很大,会造成大量的出血而死,医护营对此也没有太好的办法。”说到这里时,列奥提齐德斯的语气才略微低沉些。 It seems like also only has the cavalry, our Theonia can strong in-” listened to the Leotychides words, Sekrian unable to bear the sigh, actually does not think that side heard the cough sound. “看来也只有骑兵,我们戴奥尼亚能够强于-”听了列奥提齐德斯的话,塞克利安忍不住感叹,却不想旁边传来咳嗽声。 He turned head to look at the complexion awkward fourth cavalry legatus Axite Meese, suddenly remembered Carthage to occupy Nummi Biya area, in the army, but many Nummi Biya cavalries, Nummi Biya cavalry in South-Italian War made the Theonia cavalry suffer a loss back then. 他扭头看了看脸色尴尬的第四骑兵军团长阿西特米斯,突然想起迦太基占据了努米比亚地区,军队中可是有不少努米比亚骑兵,想当年在南意战争中努米比亚骑兵可是让戴奥尼亚骑兵吃了大亏的。 Really, Leotychides continues saying: Possibly is because this Carthage army must pass through the mountainous area, rear area surprise attack, therefore has not made the cavalry accompany, but in the information showed that lands in the Sicily Carthage army, 6 and 7000 cavalries, majority is Nummi Biya cavalry, some Carthage cavalry, Mauritanian cavalry and Iberia cavalry, its quantity the sum total of exceeding our four big cavalry corps quantities.” 果然,列奥提齐德斯继续说道:“可能是由于这一支迦太基军队要穿越山区,突袭后方,所以并没有让骑兵随行,但情报中显示登陆西西里迦太基军队中,有六、7千名骑兵,大部分为努米比亚骑兵,还有一些迦太基骑兵、毛里塔尼亚骑兵、伊比利亚骑兵,其数量超过了我们四大骑兵军团数量的总和。” „The Carthage army from Iberia, his heavy infantry and light infantry is not weak in our regiment soldiers . Moreover the cavalry is strong in us, it seems like that this is our powerful enemies!” Laying mines Lu complexion is dignified, in the past regiment profession, he has fought with the Syracuse army, with the army fight of Messapi and Peuceti, these city-state and race army always has this, such flaw, this lets him continuously to the Theonia regiment feels intrepidly proud, he heard that for the 1st time has one is not weak in each aspect in the army of Theonia regiment, while feeling anxious, has a silk to be excited at heart. “来自伊比利亚迦太基军队,其重步兵、轻步兵都不弱于我们的军团士兵,而且骑兵还要略强于我们,看来这是我们的劲敌!”布雷鲁脸色凝重,在以往的军团生涯中,他同锡拉库扎的军队战斗过,同梅萨皮普切蒂的军队战斗,这些城邦和种族的军队总有这样、那样的缺陷,这让他一直对戴奥尼亚军团的强悍感到骄傲,他还是第一次听说有一支在各个方面都不弱于戴奥尼亚军团的军队,在感到不安的同时,心里也有一丝兴奋。 His discrete asking: Except for coming from the Iberia army, other Carthage army battle efficiencies how?” 他谨慎的问道:“除了来自伊比利亚的军队,其他的迦太基军队战斗力如何?” According to the information, except for more than 40,000 came from the Iberia soldier, this time in an enemy that lands Sicily also has about 60,000 soldiers to come from Carthage this city, in Africa the Phoenicia allied country and Nummi of Biya's soldier, Nummi Biya person are most. I once after the Carthage army surrounded Sellin Nuse city, making the army initiate an attack, has conducted a night assault to the Carthage army, was successful. According to the soldiers reflected, in the enemy who they kill many are Nummi Biya soldier, these Nummi Biya people after being attacked cannot organize the effective defense, majority only knows that escapes......” “根据情报,除了4万多来自伊比利亚的士兵,这次登陆西西里的敌军中还有大约6万士兵来自迦太基本城、在阿非利加的腓尼基盟邦和努米比亚的士兵,其中努米比亚人最多。我曾经在迦太基军队包围塞林努斯城后,让军队主动出击,对迦太基军队进行过一次夜袭,获得了成功。据回来的士兵们反映,他们砍杀的敌人中不少是努米比亚士兵,这些努米比亚人在遭到袭击之后不能组织有效的防御,大部分只知道逃跑……” Leotychides, saw facial expressions on several other faces at this point becomes relaxed, then said: „ Later this army was sent to attack Heraclea Minoa. We know, the Carthage army had attacked the Heraclea Minoa city before, actually cannot make the progress, this caused me to command the army to go to rescue. But this Heraclea Minoa person obviously felt the pressure, their frequent faction envoys requested reinforcements to me, and finally has to evacuate from the Heraclea Minoa city...... 列奥提齐德斯说到这里,见其他几人脸上的神情变得轻松了许多,又接着说道:“随后这一支军队被派去进攻米诺亚。我们都知道,迦太基军队在之前就曾经进攻过米诺亚城,却始终未能取得进展,这才导致了我率军前去救援。而这一次米诺亚人明显感觉到了压力,他们频繁派使者向我求援,并且最终不得不从米诺亚城撤离…… I had asked Heraclea Minoa fleeing from calamity people, they said awfully the Nummi Biya people of these black skins do not resemble launches the attack to the city wall, repels one wave, to/clashes one wave quickly, the consumption they not many defense military, cause to defend a city unceasingly finally the failure...... thus it can be seen, the battle efficiency of this army is not weak. From night assault rout to capturing Heraclea Minoa, this seems like two armies completely. I guessed that Magon affirmation has made anything in this period of time, boosting their morale...... ” Leotychides to analyze calmly. 我问过米诺亚的逃难民众,他们说那些黑皮肤的努米比亚人不要命似的向城墙发起进攻,击退一波,很快又冲上来一波,不断的消耗他们不多的守城兵力,导致最后守城失败……由此可见,这一支军队的战斗力也不弱。从夜袭溃败到攻陷米诺亚,这完全像是两支军队。我猜测,那个玛哥肯定在这段时间内做过什么,提升了他们的士气……”列奥提齐德斯冷静的分析着。 100,000 people! 100,000 battle efficiency not weak soldiers!” Lays mines sighed one that Lu does not control self lightly. “10万人啊!10万名战斗力不弱的士兵!”布雷鲁不自禁的轻叹了一声。 This Carthage army may incessantly 100,000 people.” Sekrian interposed: I , when the harbor, had inquired in secret, so that in city more than 10,000 soldiers, but looks like Mazzara, Ecuadoran law Kaess, Pale Moss and other Phoenicia city-state several thousand citizen soldiers, if gathers them, the Carthage army population goes far beyond 100,000 people.” “这一次迦太基的军队可不止10万人。”塞克利安插话道:“我在利利俾港口时,就曾经私下里打听过,利利俾城内就有1万多士兵,而像马扎拉、厄律克斯、帕勒摩斯等这些腓尼基城邦怎么也有几千公民兵,如果将他们都集合起来,迦太基的军队人数远远超过10万人。” Siprus held breath cold air, feels the lower jaw, pondered some little time, said: „The military provisions supplies of so huge army, needs are also certainly huge.” 西普洛斯倒吸了一口凉气,摸着下颌,沉思了好一会儿,说道:“如此庞大的军队,所需要的军粮供给一定也非常庞大。” Sir Siprus, your words saying the key of issue!” Sekrian praised one, then points at the people sitting in a circle the wooden table center that is placing the Sicily map, said loudly: Therefore we must defend Sellin Nuse, so long as there are it, our fleets can the frequent attack western sea area, attack their merchants and freighters, interrupts Carthage to lead to the Sicily western route, making the food supply of Carthage army have the difficulty, even I can also send the fleet infantry to land to attack the rear area of Carthage army...... after all from the present situation, compared with our navy and army, have the big advantage facing Carthage.” 西普洛斯大人,你这一句话说中了问题的关键!”塞克利安夸赞了一句,然后指着众人围坐的木桌中央摆放着的西西里地图,大声说道:“所以我们必须守住塞林努斯,只要有了它,我们的舰队才可以频繁的出击西部的海域,袭击他们的商船、货船,截断迦太基通向西西里西部的航路,让迦太基军队的粮食供应出现困难,甚至我还可以派舰队步兵登陆袭击迦太基军队的后方……毕竟从现在的情况来看,我们海军和陆军相比,面对迦太基是占据着较大的优势。” Sekrian looked at Leotychides, self-confident saying: Although, the Carthage navy and we are equivalent in the courage and exercise ship ability, is more familiar than us to the sea condition of western waters, but they use traditional navy tactic, in a short time is impossible to change. So long as the warship of Sicily fleet restores to the beforehand quantity, I even can blockade the Carthage harbor!” 塞克利安看了看列奥提齐德斯,自信的说道:“尽管,迦太基海军在勇气和操船能力方面和我们相当,对西部海域的海况比我们更熟悉,但是他们使用的还是传统的海军战术,短时间内不可能改变。只要西西里舰队的战船恢复到以前的数量,我甚至可以封锁住迦太基港口!” Siprus helpless reminder: This matter council had adopted the resolution, in the kingdom all port cities are making the warship, but the time is extremely tight, now was unable to make several hundred warships, meets your request.” 西普洛斯无奈的提醒道:“这件事元老院已经通过了决议,王国内所有的港口城市都在制造战船,不过时间太过仓促,现在还无法制造出几百艘战船,满足你的要求。” But the matter you can help.” Sekrian earnest saying: „Before now in the Catania naval base is anchoring,...... Frat Rios in 20 warships of Serrotti Oehm sea level capture, this time I in 30 warships of south coast capture, so long as conducts patching and re-equipping, some warships of can enroll our fleets, goes to sea the combat. As the matter stands, the warship of Sicily fleet can achieve six and 70 in a short time, can continue is maintaining to the advantage of Carthage navy. Therefore, I strongly need Sir Siprus you shipwrights Sicily several cities temporarily to the naval base, helping us re-equip these Phoenicia warships as soon as possible!” This time, Sekrian said sincere in words. “但是有一件事你可以帮忙。”塞克利安认真的说道:“现在卡塔尼亚的海军基地里停靠着之前……弗拉里奥斯在塞罗迪厄姆海面捕获的二十艘战船,还有这次我在南海岸捕获的三十艘战船,只要进行一番修补和改装,其中的部分战船就可以编入我们的舰队,出海作战。这样一来,西西里舰队的战船在短时间内就能达到六、七十艘,就可以继续保持着对迦太基海军的优势。所以,我需要西普洛斯大人你将西西里几个城市的船匠暂时都集中到海军基地,帮助我们尽快改装这些腓尼基战船!”这一次,塞克利安说得言辞恳切。
