Although Xenophon does not approve Agesilaus to shield that selfishly, to attempt to grab the Athens stupid general approach, but this is Agesilaus, very much king who regards as important the friend friendship, therefore he has to comfort him saying: „Now Corio Mbu Rotouss( another Sparta king) led the allied armies to fight for several months in Greece, cannot make the big progress, if the war is always refusing to compromise like this, was disadvantageous to Sparta, some will perhaps join Athens Thebes to Sparta discontented city-state one after another in union, expanded revolts against the Sparta influence, by that time the Sparta person may remember you to come again.” 色诺芬虽然不认同阿格西劳斯袒护那个自私自利、企图劫掠雅典的愚蠢将领的做法,但这就是阿格西劳斯,一个很看重朋友情谊的国王,所以他只好又安慰他说:“现在克利奥姆布罗图斯(另一个斯巴达王)率领盟军在中希腊已经战斗了几个月,一直未能取得大的进展,如果战局始终这样僵持着,对斯巴达并不利,一些原本就对斯巴达不满的城邦恐怕会相继加入到雅典-底比斯的同盟中,壮大反抗斯巴达的势力,到那时斯巴达人可能又会再次想起你来的。” Agesilaus has not responded to Xenophon these words, on the one hand he does not hope that sees Sparta to be bogged down in difficulties such, on the other hand he does not want to judge another Sparta king's performance in Greece, thus appears the heart to be narrow, therefore he topic one revolution, half jokingly, half earnest saying: „Xenophon, you are Athenians, you hope that Athens does defeat?” 阿格西劳斯没有回应色诺芬的这番话,一方面他不希望看到斯巴达陷入那样的困境,另一方面他也不想评判另一位斯巴达王在中希腊的表现,从而显得自己心胸狭隘,所以他将话题一转,半开玩笑,半认真的说道:“色诺芬,你可是雅典人,难道你希望雅典战败？” Xenophon earnest saying: „I do not want Athens to defeat, does not want Sparta to defeat, Athens and Sparta each has its strong points, mutually is the supplement, should not become the enemy, if two city-state join up, then the entire Greece can join up, we can contend with other Mediterranean strong influences.” 色诺芬认真的说道:“我既不希望雅典战败,也不希望斯巴达战败,雅典和斯巴达各有所长,互为补充,本不应该成为敌人,如果两个城邦联合起来,那么整个希腊就能联合起来,我们就能和地中海其他强大的势力相抗衡。” „...... Very good idea.” Agesilaus looks at Xenophon, finally said one. “……很好的想法。”阿格西劳斯看着色诺芬,最终说了一句。 After packing off Xenophon, returns to the room, sees to place the books on table, Agesilaus is in a daze, „supports the fugitive to counter-attack Apulia about Sparta” the incident, he has not spoken the truth to Xenophon, because he has not opposed at the elder powwow. 送走色诺芬之后,回到屋里,看到放在桌上的书册,阿格西劳斯发了会儿呆,关于“斯巴达支持逃亡者反攻阿普利亚”一事,他对色诺芬并没有说实话,因为他在长老议事会上并没有表示反对。 „More than 500 warships, 100,000 armies!......” Agesilaus is talking over in a low voice, in the tone still also had several points startled to palpitate, at first after hearing the Kingdom of Theonia eruption war , the military of putting in( a Carthage side also similarly so), this was truly scared him, he has estimated earnestly, even, Greece and northern Greece city-state of joins up Peloponnese, can still collect this huge number probably reluctantly, but Theonia can actually quite relaxed achieving, this make him feel fear, because he is very clear: Although Sparta with Kingdom of Theonia now or union, because both sides are distanced too near, moreover is ambitious, definitely will have the war in one day because of the conflicts of interest, therefore in his heart is hoping Carthage won this war, although it is an alien race, but Persia is also an alien race, now not also cooperation very? After all the western Mediterranean present situation has dominated the Sicily time to be different from Dionysius. “500多艘战船,10万大军啊！……”阿格西劳斯低声念叨着,语气中仍然还带有几分惊悸,最初听到戴奥尼亚王国爆发战争之后先后所投入的兵力(迦太基一方也同样如此),这确实把他吓着了,他认认真真的估算过,就算把伯罗奔尼撒、中希腊、北希腊的城邦都联合起来,大概也就能勉强凑出这个庞大的数字,但戴奥尼亚却能够较为轻松的做到,这让他感到了畏惧,因为他心里很清楚:斯巴达虽然跟戴奥尼亚王国现在还是同盟,但是由于双方相距太近,而且都雄心勃勃,必然会在某一天会因为利益冲突而发生战争,因此他心中就是盼望着迦太基赢得这场战争,尽管它是异族,但波斯也是异族,现在不也合作的很好吗？毕竟西地中海现在的局势已经跟狄奥尼修斯称霸西西里的时代不同了。 Thinks of these, Agesilaus felt the urgency of time: Actually is just like Xenophon said, Corio Mbu Rotouss commanded the army to fight in Greece was so long, still has no big progress, this way was very disadvantageous to Sparta, should oneself take some actions?! 想到这些,阿格西劳斯又感到了时间的紧迫:却是正如色诺芬所说,克利奥姆布罗图斯率军在中希腊战斗了这么久,至今没有什么大的进展,再这样下去对斯巴达很不利,自己是不是应该采取一些行动了？！ ............................................. ……………………………………… Because, the Sparta general grabbing act as well as after that setting free with a verdict of not guilty, causing Athens to make war to Sparta, and forms an alliance with Thebes, quick has Russia , Slovakia, Byzantium and Rhodes, superiorly, so that inferior (Asia)...... various city-state joined this new union, this new union therefore is named as the second Athens union( establishment of union to be primarily Athens after all, joins city-state of union mostly is these years with city-state that Athens forms an alliance), for during Peloponnesian War is established the raising Union that to differentiate by Athens, this/should union declared: The goal of forming an alliance is to protect the independence of various Greek nations, revolts against the oppression of Sparta. 由于,斯巴达将领的劫掠行径以及其后的无罪释放,导致雅典向斯巴达开战,并与底比斯结盟,很快就有开俄斯、拜占庭、罗德岛、优俾亚……诸城邦加入了这个新同盟,这个新同盟于是被命名为第二雅典同盟(毕竟同盟的建立是以雅典为主,加入同盟的城邦大多是这些年同雅典结盟的城邦),为了和伯罗奔尼撒战争期间由雅典建立的提洛同盟区分开,该同盟宣称:其结盟的目的是保护希腊各邦的独立,反抗斯巴达的压迫。 In order to call and hire more soldiers battles with Sparta, Athens ecclesia also adopted the resolution, restores to levy the property tax, for quickly and easy collection tax money, the Athens government also carried out the reform to the collection way. 为了召集和雇佣更多的士兵同斯巴达作战,雅典公民大会还通过了决议,重新恢复征收财产税,为了更加快捷和容易的征收税钱,雅典政府还对征收方式进行了改革。 But newly-built Thebes government complete energy centralized to military affairs, they depended upon firm city garrison to resist the first wave of attack of Sparta allied armies. 而新建的底比斯政府则将全部的精力集中到了军务上,他们依靠坚固的城防抵挡住了斯巴达联军的第一波攻击。 With autumn oncoming, the soldiers of Sparta allied armies return to respective city-state in abundance, prepares the matters concerned of fall harvest, under Sparta Wang Ke Leo Mbu Rotouss is only remaining less than 3000 Sparta soldiers, he is not willing to lose the precious Sparta soldier in the siege warfare, therefore commands the army to draw back in Platia for the time being. 随着秋季的来临,斯巴达联军的士兵纷纷返回各自城邦,准备着秋收的事宜,斯巴达王克利奥姆布罗图斯麾下仅剩不到3000名的斯巴达战士,他不愿意将宝贵的斯巴达战士损耗在攻城战中,于是暂且率军退驻普拉蒂亚。 The Thebes government makes the best use of this precious armistice time, mobilizes the entire City People, regarding the Thebes city, the excavation trench, builds the barrier...... to adopt to be able to tighten the city garrison measure, to defend Sparta allied armies next attack. Meanwhile, they also unite neighboring already Piaoxia various city-state that is independent actively, assists it to strengthen the defense on own initiative, in order to prevent Sparta outside the Thebes territory. 底比斯政府抓紧这宝贵的休战时间,动员全城民众,围绕底比斯城,挖掘壕沟,搭建壁垒……采取一切能加强城防的措施,以防御斯巴达联军下一次的进攻。同时,他们还积极联合邻近已经独立出来的皮奥夏诸城邦,主动协助其加强防御,以便将斯巴达阻挡在底比斯领地之外。 But at the same time, the Sparta government also calls the citizens in city, every day is conducting the military training, his head is reaches densely thickly, he outstanding performance in the beforehand fight, won the approval and respect of entire City People, everyone actively participates in the training program that he makes, no one expressed the question to this plan. 而与此同时,斯巴达政府还将城内的公民们召集起来,每天进行着军事训练,其负责人就是伊帕密浓达,他在之前的战斗中出色的表现,赢得了全城民众的认可和尊重,大家都积极的参加他所制定的训练计划,没有一个人对这个计划表示质疑。 But reaches densely thickly has not satisfied defends the Thebes city, he realized, only then beats the Sparta person in the battle, has the possibility completely to relieve threat of Sparta to Thebes, can make Thebes welcome the true rise. Therefore he while is training the citizen with a sense of urgency, they proposed to Pelopidas new suggestion- that establishes a elite heavy infantry regiment, in order to be well-known Greece's king guards to contend with Sparta, even he also in homosexuality many characteristics according to the Thebes citizen, proposed this/should army best comprised of the gay lover, he thinks because just among these lovers has the close relations, they can drive, assist and altogether go to the life and death in the fight mutually. 而伊帕密浓达并没有满足于只是守住底比斯城,他意识到只有在会战中击败斯巴达人,才有可能彻底解除斯巴达对底比斯的威胁,才能让底比斯迎来真正的崛起。因此他在抓紧训练公民的同时,也向佩洛皮达斯他们提出了新的建议-那就是建立一支精锐的重步兵连队,以便能够与斯巴达闻名希腊的国王卫队相抗衡,甚至他还根据底比斯公民中同性恋较多的特点,提出了该部队最好由同性恋情侣组成,他认为正因为这些情侣之间有着亲密的关系,他们才能够在战斗中互相激励、互相协助、共赴生死。 Although the homosexuality was esteemed in Greece, the army that but is formed by the homosexuality specially has also never appeared in previous Greek various nations, if this proposition appears in other Greek city-state, even Athens possibly is questioned by many, however the emerging Thebes government's radical faction headed by Pelopidas is established, they young and vibrant, enthusiastic, dare the adventure, is bold in making innovations, therefore they realized after the plan that reaches densely thickly helps enhance the battle efficiency of Thebes citizen soldier sharply, immediately is passed, and immediately carries out. 虽然同性恋在希腊本土受到推崇,但是专门由同性恋组建的军队在此前的希腊诸邦中还从未出现过,如果这个提议出现在其他希腊城邦、甚至雅典都可能遭到不少人的质疑,但是新兴的底比斯政府以佩洛皮达斯为首的激进派组成,他们年轻、富有朝气、充满激情、敢于冒险,勇于创新,因此他们意识到伊帕密浓达的计划有助于大幅提升底比斯公民兵的战斗力之后,马上获得通过,并且立即执行。 Pelopidas and reach densely thickly arrives in the entire city citizens to choose personally, quick formed 300 people of heavy infantry regiments( 150 pairs of lovers), these soldier ages is about 20 years old, were born in the Thebes aristocrat . Moreover the wrestling school has been basically conducting the long-term training, is all tall and strong, the movement is quick. 佩洛皮达斯和伊帕密浓达亲自到全城公民中进行挑选,很快就组成了300人的重步兵连队(150对情侣),这些士兵年纪20岁左右,都出生于底比斯贵族,而且基本都在摔跤学校进行过长期的训练,个个身高体壮,动作敏捷。 Reaches densely thickly starts to conduct severer heavy infantry training to them. 伊帕密浓达开始对他们进行更严苛的重步兵训练。 .......................................... …………………………………… In Sicily, the Carthage army formally started the attack to Theonia territory. 在西西里,迦太基大军正式开始了对戴奥尼亚领地的进攻。 Hasdrubal the Fair leads 30,000 soldiers to go north from Gela directly, starts to attack that. 哈斯德鲁巴率领3万名士兵从杰拉径直北上,开始进攻赫那。 Meanwhile, Magon leads personally more than 50,000 soldiers, embarks from the Camarina territory, enters in Syracuse, and in its territory northeast part Xiayingpan, its attack goal is distance camp not far Palagonia. 与此同时,玛哥亲率5万多名士兵,从卡曼利纳领地出发,进入锡拉库扎境内,并且在其领地西北部扎下营盘,其进攻目标就是距离营地不远的帕拉戈尼亚。 But Syracuse also called more than 10,000 soldiers, is led by general Farlet Cousse, across Ike Salmen, attacks its north not far Tyndaris. 而锡拉库扎也召集了1万多名士兵,由将军法莱库斯率领,穿过伊克萨门,进攻其北面不远的陶尼斯。 The southern border of Theonia Sicily territory encountered the attack of three groups of armies, but has various prepared Theonia Sicily cities and allied countries is not startled, their methodical according to beforehand deployment is conducting the defense. 戴奥尼亚西西里领地的南部边境先后遭到了三路大军的进攻,但早已有所准备的戴奥尼亚西西里各城市及其盟邦并不惊慌,他们有条不紊的按照事先的部署进行着防御。 After Hasdrubal the Fair commands the army the process to climb mountains and cross rivers and arrive at Dach that he somewhat felt awkward, because that city not only constructs on the hill, but also by its north and south is neighboring two big lakes, this causes the Carthage army very difficult its surrounding, during the offense the army is unable to launch completely, the person many advantages cannot be brought into full play. 哈斯德鲁巴率军经过跋涉、抵达赫那之后,他有些作难了,因为赫那城不仅建在山丘之上,而且它的南北两侧紧邻着两个不小的湖泊,这使得迦太基军队很难将其包围,在进攻时军队又无法完全展开,人多的优势得不到充分发挥。 Moreover that chief executive Krey at the beginning of the war starts, under the suggestion of Leotychides, mobilizes the people, uses these two lakes, unearthed a wide moat under the hill, this gave the attacking a city instrument of Carthage army to approach under the city to set the barrier. 而且赫那行政长官克雷鲁在战争开始之初,就在列奥提齐德斯的建议之下,动员民众,利用这两个湖泊,在山丘之下挖掘了一道较宽的护城河,这更给迦太基军队的攻城器械逼近城下设置了障碍。 In addition Leotychides sent the 3000 eighth regiment soldiers to that in addition the citizen soldier in that city, in the city the military altogether has more than 5000 people. 再加上列奥提齐德斯向赫那派遣了3000名第八军团士兵,再加上赫那城内的公民兵,城内兵力共有5000多人。 Hasdrubal the Fair after several days of careful preparations, starts to attack a city full power, finally battled for day, even the top has not attacked to get up, later several days of attacks were also defeated, because the soldiers casualties are not infrequent, Hasdrubal the Fair has to stop attacking, conducts the recuperation. 哈斯德鲁巴经过好几天的精心准备,开始全力攻城,结果激战了一天,连城头都没有攻上过,之后几天的进攻也遭受了失败,由于士兵们伤亡不在少数,哈斯德鲁巴不得不停止攻击,进行休整。 The Magon army also suffered the difficult position, several months remain behind the Theonia soldiers in Palagonia to construct the defense facility with the help of Catania people, they arrange beside the trap region and trap the construction sentry post tower and outside the sentry post tower to dig outside the trench and trench to arrange the trap outside the village...... such a point to wrap/sets of one point again, has extended several li (0.5 km) to south, holds only smooth section of between the south coast mountain ridges to lead to Catania plain. 玛哥的军队也遭遇了困境,几个月来留守帕拉戈尼亚的戴奥尼亚士兵一直在卡塔奈民众的帮助下修建防御设施,他们在村庄外布置陷阱地带、陷阱之外修建哨塔、哨塔之外挖壕沟、壕沟之外再布置陷阱……这样一环套一环,一直向南延伸了几里,扼守住南海岸通向卡塔尼亚平原的山岭间的唯一的平坦地段。 The Magon army to make a connection with this road, by suffering and making a harassing attack of sentry post of tower archer trap, in the past, eliminated less than 13 roadblocks for several days, actually causes the soldiers despondency. 玛哥的大军为了打通这条路,饱受陷阱的折磨和哨塔弓箭手的袭扰,一连几天过去,才清除了不到13的路障,却使得士兵们士气低落。 After two days of recuperation, Magon decides to change the attack route finally, surmounts the mountain ridge, goes to Leontium. 在经过两天休整之后,玛哥终于决定改变进攻路线,翻越山岭,前往列奥提尼。 But in the east coast, the Syracuse army has arrived under the Tyndaris city, but they light/only built the camp to spend for 5 days, after attacked a city for the 1st time the failure, they stayed in the camp, does not have any sound. 而在东面的海岸,锡拉库扎的军队早已抵达陶尼斯城下,但他们光修筑营地就花了五天,在第一次攻城失败之后,他们就呆在营地里,没有任何动静了。 .......................................... …………………………………… Turney Coombe, this unfortunate Volsci cities, since was broken through and occupied by the Rome person after last year, this year it again encounters the flames of war, was sieged for nearly two months by the Theonia army, as of late under the daily city has the family of Rome citizen in the soldier to the city to conduct the frontline propaganda to induce somebody to capitulate under detaining of Theonia army. 萨特尼库姆,这座不幸的沃尔西城镇自从去年被罗马人攻破并占据之后,今年它再次遭遇战火,被戴奥尼亚军队围困了近两个月,最近这段时间每天城下都有罗马公民的家眷在戴奥尼亚军队的看押下对城上士兵进行喊话劝降。
