Senior statesmen one tight, no one has spoken the rebuttal, these year of Hades beliefs strike root in the hearts of the people more and more. The year before last, a Crotone judge sudden died in the sleep suddenly, his widow's surrendered 2nd day to the city hall, said that „several times was own husband received the bribe, made the unfair ruling, therefore encountered the Hades harsh penalty......” this matter to spread in the kingdom widely, the people venerated this fair strict Hades, made the officials many for several points to awe to this gloomy dignified god, naturally also included the senior statesmen. 元老们心里一紧,谁也没有出言反驳,这些年哈迪斯信仰越来越深入人心。前年,克罗托内的一名法官突然在睡梦中猝死,他的遗孀第二天到市政厅自首,说“是自己的丈夫几次收受贿赂,作出不公正的判决,因此遭到了哈迪斯严厉的惩罚……”这件事在王国内广为流传,民众们更加尊崇这位公正严明的冥王,更让官员们对这位阴郁庄严的神祗多了几分敬畏,当然也包括元老们。 At this time, Plesinas saw not far away to stand a person, unexpectedly was Marigi, thinks that he must oppose, unavoidably felt the surprise. 这时,普莱辛纳斯看到不远处站起来一个人,竟然是马里吉,以为他要反对,不免感到诧异。 Marigi smiles toward him, said: „ I also support certainly your majesty decision, but I want to speak the correctness that your majesty decides from the trade angle. Because three wars broke out, particularly with the war between Carthage, although the flames of war have not burnt to our main territories, but has actually caused outside nation merchants who often came the Theonia doing business trade to reduce, the business tax of each city also presents the more or less drop in these months, because outside these nation merchants do not favor Theonia to be able in the victory that these three in the war are the last simultaneously, therefore does not dare to contact with the kingdom again. 马里吉朝他笑了笑,说道:“我当然也是支持陛下的决定,不过我想从贸易的角度来讲讲陛下决定的正确。由于三场战争先后爆发,尤其是同迦太基之间的战争,尽管战火还没有燃烧到我们主要的领地之内,但却已经导致原先常来戴奥尼亚经商贸易的外邦商人减少了,各个城市的商税在这几个月也都呈现或多或少的下降,因为这些外邦商人并不看好戴奥尼亚能够在这三场同时进行的战争中获得最后的胜利,因此不敢再与王国接触。 But we dare to hold the football final such grand celebration during the war, must demonstrate our kingdom's confidence to the victory to them, thus urges the trade to resume the prosperity. ” 而我们敢在战争期间举行橄榄球总决赛这样盛大的庆典活动,正是要向他们展示我们王国对胜利的信心,从而促使贸易重新恢复繁荣。” „Moreover the football final can increase massive tax revenues, the improvement state treasury intense condition.” Finance minister Mersis digression, while makes an effort to strike the arm rest of wooden chair with the finger, discontented reminder: „!! You are now clear, the kingdom now the biggest problem is not the grain, but is the state treasury! Is the money in state treasury is insufficient!” “而且橄榄球总决赛本身就可以增加大量的税收,改善国库紧张的状况。”财务大臣梅尔西斯一边插话,一边用手指用力敲打着木椅的扶手,不满的提醒道:“诸位！诸位！你们现在要清楚,王国现在最大的问题已经不是粮食,而是国库！是国库里的钱不够啦！” Asking of Vespa surprise: „A lot of properties that Sir Mersis, these days, your majesty already and other seized city-state obtained to transport the Thurii harbor from Rome with the ships, finally belonged to the state treasury, heard at least several thousand Talent, after the Alexius army seized Kawu Tim, Beynes Toome, Lola and other Samnium cities, transported many properties, how will the state treasury also be short of money?!” 韦斯巴诧异的问道:“梅尔西斯大人,在这段时间,陛下已经将从罗马和其他占领的城邦中获得的大量财物都用船只运送到了图里伊港口,最后都归入了国库,听说至少有几千个塔连特,还有阿莱克西斯军队占领卡乌蒂姆、贝内文图姆、洛拉等萨莫奈城镇后,也运送回来不少财物,国库怎么还会缺钱呢？！” „Sir Vespa, you light/only sees the state treasury to receive money, how not to see the state treasury spends large bundle outward!” Mersis cold snort/hum, cried out: „The beforehand drought has made the state treasury consume many savings, this war from the beginning, the Sicily fleet almost all extinguishes, your majesty and our council makes the decision, must make several hundred warships immediately! How much money this must spend, do you know?! Tens of thousands of famous soldiers and crew died in battle and drowned, after many severe wounds, citizen who causes the disability, how many comforting and aiding a bereaved family expenses this must spend, do you know?! 11 regiments battle about 100,000 people, a fight hits, how many javelins can consume and how many arrow arrows?! How many thorn spears/guns breaks off? How many stilettos damages and shields, to have the warhorse?! How many reserve weapon armor I must purchase, safeguards the soldiers to continue to fight, don't these need to spend?! The spoils of war that...... your majesty and Alexius send were also just levelled the consumption before state treasury, but the war was also far from the conclusion, but the state treasury will also consume continually, therefore any helped the financial revenue the measure not let off!” “韦斯巴大人,你光看到国库收钱,怎么没看到国库大把大把往外花钱的时候！”梅尔西斯冷哼了一声,大声抱怨道:“之前的旱灾就已经让国库耗费了不少的积蓄,这场战争一开始,西西里舰队几乎全灭,陛下和我们元老院就做出决定,要马上建造几百艘战船！这要花费多少钱,你知道吗？！成千上万名士兵和船员战死、溺亡,还有很多重伤后导致残疾的公民,这要花费多少抚恤费用,你知道吗？！十一个军团作战将近10万人,一场战斗打下来,要消耗掉多少标枪、多少箭矢？！折断多少刺枪？损坏多少短剑、盾牌、还有战马？！我得购买多少后备的武器盔甲,来保障士兵们能够继续战斗,这些难道都不需要花钱吗？！……陛下和阿莱克西斯送来的战利品也不过是刚刚将国库之前的消耗抹平而已,但是战争还远没有结束,而国库还将持续消耗,因此任何有利于财政收入的措施都不应该放过！” Vespa hollow laugh several: „It seems like trade and financial implication of war on the kingdom is very big, but the fall harvest must end immediately, once the citizens paid the land tax, the finance department should feel more relaxed.” 韦斯巴干笑了几声:“看来战争对王国的贸易和财政影响都很大呀,不过秋收马上就要结束了,一旦公民们交纳了土地税,财务部应该会感到轻松一些。” In the conference site resounds several to laugh, that several senior statesmen thought Vespa does not understand the finance of kingdom, on land tax that money regarding this war from the start is futile attempt. 会场中响起几声嗤笑,那是有几个元老觉得韦斯巴根本不懂王国的财政,就土地税那点钱对于这场战争而言压根就是杯水车薪。 The Androlis stand, the vision took a fast look around all around dignifiedly, he cannot permit the authority who some people despise the rotating president, although in his heart also a little despises incompetent of Vespa, but similarly as the rotating president, in this issue they are a body. 安塔奥里斯站了起来,目光威严的扫视了四周,他不能允许有些人藐视轮值主席的权威,虽然他心中也有点鄙夷韦斯巴的无能,但同样作为轮值主席,在这个问题上他们是一体的。 „Also has the opinion of opposition?!” Androlis loud saying: „If not, that makes the best use of the time to carry out your majesty decision, several days later to September 9, we must immediately start to arrange.” “还有没有反对的意见？！”安塔奥里斯大声的说道:“如果没有,那就抓紧时间执行陛下的决定,再过几天就到9月九了,我们必须马上开始筹备。” In the conference site restored peacefully. 会场内恢复了安静。 Vespa expressed gratitude toward the Androlis nod, then said loudly: „Since everyone agrees with your majesty decision, then this year's football final will continue!” 韦斯巴朝安塔奥里斯点头表示感谢,然后大声说道:“既然大家都同意陛下的决定,那么今年的橄榄球总决赛将继续举行！” Then, he held up the small iron hammer to ring little bell on desktop, exuded the clear sound, will then look at front one of the five rotating presidents, the Thurii chief executive: „Sir Lysias, this you are still the head of football competition time, what difficulty has to need us to solve?” 说完,他举起小铁锤敲了一下桌面上的小钟,发出清脆的响声,然后将目光转向前排的五位轮值主席之一、图里伊行政长官:“吕西阿斯大人,这一次你依然是橄榄球比赛的负责人,有什么困难需要我们解决的？” Lysias hesitates was saying: „I am also the decision that supports your majesty to make, you also know that Thurii district many of citizens casualty during this war, the mood of people are quite depressing, holding of football competition benefits the release of their mood. Moreover at the Hades celebration on the same day, hopes that can in temple Hall of Valor the ceremony that worshipped the dying in battle officers manage is more grand, to comfort their relatives!” 吕西阿斯沉吟着说道:“我也是支持陛下所做的这个决定,你们也知道在这段战争期间图里伊大区的公民们死伤的不少,民众的情绪比较压抑,橄榄球比赛的举行有利于他们情绪的释放。而且在哈迪斯庆典当天,希望可以将在神庙英灵殿拜祭战死将士的仪式办得更为隆重一些,以安抚他们的亲属！” „This should be, I will arrange, Sir Lysias you can feel relieved!” Plesinas responds. “这本来就是应该的,我会安排好的,吕西阿斯大人你可以放心！”普莱辛纳斯作出回应。 „To prevent to happen accidentally/surprisingly, I hope that patrols the section to increase the patrol leader, maintains in the public security outside Thurii city, the city...... also to have the military affairs section to send the soldier, maintained the celebration on the same day the order of Chengnei Plaza and temple.” “为了防止意外发生,我希望巡察部能够增派巡逻队,维护图里伊城内、城外的治安……还有军务部能够多派士兵,维护庆典当天城内广场和神庙的秩序。” After obtaining Hielos and the others positive responses, Lysias continues saying: „What is more important, as a result of war, before then our council not on this year whether holds football final to give the affirmative answer, perhaps various cities have not been ready, we must inform them as soon as possible, making them send out the participating team as soon as possible, otherwise various teams cannot arrive on time, the competition program can only postpone....... The past every year must invite friendly city-state to attend the ceremony, whether this year also incurs old?” 在得到希洛斯等人的积极回应之后,吕西阿斯继续说道:“还有更重要的是,由于战争的发生,在这之前我们元老院一直没有就今年是否举办橄榄球总决赛一事作出肯定的答复,各城市恐怕都没有做好准备,我们必须尽快通知他们,让他们尽快派出参赛球队,否则各支球队不能按时到达,比赛日程就只能推迟了。还有……以往每年都要邀请友好城邦观礼,今年是否还招旧？” „I think that should also continue to invite them, like, we who former Sir Marigi said need to these allied countries and friendly city-state demonstrated confidence that Theonia won, to obtain they many support.” Foreign minister Ansitanos earnest suggestion: „Moreover in Sicily combat report that yesterday received, and other friendly city-state was destroyed like Agrigento, Gela, Heraclea Minoa, we invited them to send the envoy to participate in the magnificent ceremony, may take the opportunity to indicate that Theonia did not give up their determinations, with the aim of comforting their fleeing from calamity people.” “我认为还应该继续邀请他们,就像之前马里吉大人所说的,我们需要向这些盟邦和友好城邦展示戴奥尼亚获胜的信心,以获得他们更多的支持。”外交大臣安西塔诺斯认真的建议道:“而且昨天收到的西西里战报中,像阿格里真托、杰拉、米诺亚等友好城邦都遭到了毁灭,我们邀请他们派使者来参与盛典,可借机表明戴奥尼亚不放弃他们的决心,以便安抚他们的逃难民众。” „Sir Ansitanos.” Androlis asked loudly: „You said in these allied countries that must invite, including Egypt? When we encounter the drought and war, Egypt gave us greatly to help, making us endure the most difficult most recent several months.” “安西塔诺斯大人。”安塔奥里斯大声问道:“你所说的要邀请的这些盟邦中,是否包括埃及？在我们遭遇旱灾和战争的时候,埃及给予了我们巨大的帮助,让我们熬过了最艰难的前几个月。” „Yes , Egypt, although is the allied country that we just established diplomatic relations, but is biggest to our help, why did no one mention before must invite them?” “是啊、是啊,埃及虽然是我们刚建交的盟邦,但却对我们的帮助最大,为什么之前没人提及要邀请他们呢？” „At this time remembered to invite Egypt, perhaps without enough time.” Some senior statesmen are saying regrettably. “这个时候才想起去邀请埃及,恐怕来不及了吧。”有一些元老遗憾的说着。 „Sir does not need to worry, Ministry of Foreign Affairs just received the message from eastern Mediterranean, Egyptian Pharaoh has sent the envoy, must visit our Theonia, it is estimated that can arrive at Thurii before the celebration.” Ansitanos responds immediately. “诸位大人不用担心,外交部刚刚收到来自东地中海的消息,埃及法老已经派了使者,要来出访我们戴奥尼亚,估计在庆典之前就能到达图里伊。”安西塔诺斯立刻回应道。 „How such important matter did not say early!” Cornelius complained one: „Sir Ansitanos, Egypt is our important allies, your Ministry of Foreign Affairs must be responsible for receiving the good Egypt envoy, has what need our council to do, although raises, in brief must make them be satisfied! In addition must tell your majesty immediately, making him know this matter.” “这么重要的事情怎么不早说呢！”科尔内鲁斯抱怨了一句:“安西塔诺斯大人,埃及是我们重要的盟友,你们外交部要负责接待好埃及的使者,有什么需要我们元老院做的,尽管提出来,总之要让他们感到满意！另外还要立刻告诉陛下,让他知道这件事。” Anxi Talos nod accepted. 安西塔洛斯点头应承。 Cornelius urged, said to conference venue center's Vespa: „Since everyone agrees to hold the football final, that hurries to send out the messenger, informs the chief executive in each city, as before invited the allied country and friendly city-state attended the magnificent ceremony.” 科尔内鲁斯叮嘱完,又对会场中央的韦斯巴说道:“既然大家都同意举办橄榄球总决赛,那就赶紧派出信使,通知各个城市的行政长官,像往年一样邀请盟邦和友好城邦参加盛典。” Vespa nods, calls the law clerks who are responsible for recording the conference in side, making them start to write the letter immediately, after covering the council seal, gives messengers who wait for in the side hall momentarily, sends out each region it( because Theonia council has almost conference to hold every day, momentarily possibly through proposition, therefore council has messenger who deploys fixedly, the resolution prompt accurate transmission of council to person who should transmit). 韦斯巴点头,叫来在旁边负责记录会议的书记官们,让他们立刻开始撰写信件,盖上元老院印章之后,交给在偏殿随时等候的信使们,将其发往各地(因为戴奥尼亚元老院几乎每天都有会议举行,随时可能通过一些提议,因此元老院有固定配属的信使,将元老院的决议及时准确的传达给应该传达的人)。 After completing these arrangements, Vespa relaxes, routine business general asking: „Sir, new proposition?” 做完这些安排之后,韦斯巴松了口气,例行公事一般的问道:“诸位大人,还有新的提议吗？” Military affairs minister Hielos stand, serious saying: „Military affairs section received an information for these days, Peuceti former Prince Darka was convening to escape Greek Messapi, Peuceti and Dauni remnant forces in Peloponnese, prepares to attack our Apulia areas.” 军务大臣希洛斯站了起来,神情严肃的说道:“军务部这几天收到了一个情报,普切蒂的前王子瓦达尔卡在伯罗奔尼撒正在召集逃亡到希腊本土的梅萨皮、普切蒂、道尼的残余势力,准备进攻我们的阿普利亚地区。” The people listened, is startled. 众人听了,大吃一惊。 Vespa also sweeps beforehand careless, urgently asked: „Is this information precise?” 韦斯巴也一扫之前的漫不经心,急问道:“这个消息确切吗？” „Is confirmed Aristias.” Hielos only returned to one simply, the people no longer indicated to suspect, although many senior statesmen kept at a respectful distance to King Davos the information manager, but he gained the information ability to be without a doubt. “已经得到了阿里司提拉斯的证实。”希洛斯只简单的回了一句,众人就不再表示怀疑了,虽然不少元老都对戴弗斯国王的这个情报总管敬而远之,但他获取情报的能力却是毋庸置疑的。 „Sir Hielos, you know how many enemies has?” Vespa also asked loudly. “希洛斯大人,你知道有多少敌人吗？”韦斯巴又大声问道。 „According to the previous receiving information showed, has about is less than 4000 people.” Hielos earnest saying: „It is estimated that they will land Apulia recently.” “根据上一次收到的情报显示,大约有不到4000人。”希洛斯认真的说道:“估计他们会在近期内登陆阿普利亚。” „These stray cur will choose the time actually very much, led the army to expedite the Samnium mountainous area and 4 th fleet to leave Adriatic Sea while Alexius to go to Sicily and entire Apulia area defense void time came to sneak attack.” “这些丧家之犬倒是很会选时间,趁着阿莱克西斯率领军队远征萨莫奈山区、第四舰队离开亚得里亚海前往了西西里、整个阿普利亚地区防御空虚的时候前来偷袭。”
