LNMTL needs user funding to survive Read More

Siprus looks at Leotychides that opening one's eyes wide wooden face, suspected that he asked final that a few words are intentionally, because oneself come here main purpose is to request to repel for the Catania people at the Carthage cavalry incident that on the Catania plain wreaks havoc, he coughed, quick thought of the new topic: „Several days have not received the new combat report, how now south the Catania plain is a situation?” 西普洛斯看着列奥提齐德斯那一张目无表情的脸,怀疑他问最后的那一句话是故意的,因为自己来这里的主要目的就是为了卡塔奈民众要求击退在卡塔尼亚平原上肆虐的迦太基骑兵一事,他干咳了一声,很快就想到了新的话题:“已经有好几天没有收到新的战报,现在卡塔尼亚平原南面到底是怎样一种情况？” Mentioned the military, the Leotychides interest came, naturally the prerequisite was Siprus takes the wartime governor, some qualifications understood entire war, but Leotychides also needs to expound the own following strategy to him, with the aim of earning his support, therefore he one reached out side, asking Siprus to sit down. 一提及军事,列奥提齐德斯的兴致就来了,当然前提条件是西普洛斯作为战时总督,是有资格了解整个战局的,而列奥提齐德斯也需要向他阐明自己接下来的战略,以便获得他的支持,所以他向旁边一伸手,请西普洛斯坐下。 Then, Leotychides is pointing at the map, said to him: The mounted scout who „over the two days, we sent was not missing and is injured to return, has not received any recent news, the Carthaginians cavalry does the destruction on the Catania plain not only, they are also blocking us and Catania plain south relation, how we do not know now the situation of seventh regiment, does not know how the situation in Palagonia, does not know how only the Leontium situation, knew, only then Tyndaris received surrounding of Syracuse person, but the Syracuse army the full power attack...... this has not been that the express steamer of Sicily fleet must report every day, believes that you also knew, but except for this.-” 然后,列奥提齐德斯指着地图,对他说道:“这两天,我们派出去的侦骑不是失踪、就是受伤逃回,根本就没有获得什么新的消息,迦太基人的骑兵不光是在卡塔尼亚平原上搞破坏,他们也在封锁我们与卡塔尼亚平原南面的联系,我们不知道现在第七军团的情况怎样,也不知道帕拉戈尼亚的情况怎么样了,更不知道列奥提尼的情况怎么样,唯一知道的只有陶尼斯受到锡拉库扎人的包围,但锡拉库扎军队并没有全力的进攻……这是西西里舰队的快船每一天必做的汇报,相信你也都知道了,而除了这个-” Leotychides selected Palagonia and that with the hand on the wooden map respectively, Leontium, as well as north not the far Catania Xinjunying, then and south drew a great-circle in the west of Catania city, this almost included the most Catania plain, said in the serious tone: „This big region had been camouflaged by the Carthage cavalry completely, we do not understand that now south the situation in seventh regiment and allied country, did not understand the position and trend of enemy army, therefore in such a case, sending the army to go out of town to attack the Carthage cavalry, perhaps will go out of town shortly, will run upon the Carthage army directly.” 列奥提齐德斯用手在木制地图上分别点了帕拉戈尼亚、赫那、列奥提尼、以及北面不远的卡塔奈新军营,然后又在卡塔奈城的西部和南部画了一个大圈,这几乎囊括了大半个卡塔尼亚平原,以郑重的语气说道:“这一大片区域已经完全被迦太基的骑兵所遮蔽,我们现在既不了解南面第七军团和盟邦的情况,更不了解敌人大军的位置和动向,所以在这样的情况下,派军队出城去攻击迦太基骑兵,说不定出城没多久,就会直接撞上迦太基大军。” Said in the end, before Leotychides the words circled, in that issue, Siprus has not cared, the Leotychides words have made him feel that stern of entire war, asking that he somewhat worried about: „Then according to your judgment, what the Carthage army is possibly making now?” 说到最后,列奥提齐德斯又把话绕到了之前那个问题上,西普洛斯没有在意,列奥提齐德斯的话已经让他感觉到了整个战局的严峻性,他有些担忧的问道:“那么根据你的判断,迦太基军队现在可能在做什么？” Leotychides is staring at the map, not only somewhat rebukes oneself, and brings self-confident saying: „ Although I...... neglected the huge Carthage cavalry to camouflage before the entire battlefield, keeping our places from easily obtaining the relation, causing some plans of beforehand formulation unable to implement, however the Carthaginians trend I can guess, they are attacking Palagonia either, either is attacking Leontium, because of them, only then these two choices. 列奥提齐德斯盯着地图,既有些自责,又带着自信的说道:“虽然之前我……忽略了庞大的迦太基骑兵会将整个战场都遮蔽起来,让我们各处无法轻易获得联系,导致之前制定的一些计划无法实施,但是迦太基人的动向我还是可以猜测到的,他们要么在进攻帕拉戈尼亚,要么在进攻列奥提尼,因为他们只有这两种选择。 Takes over Palagonia, Carthaginians not only can make a connection from smooth road section of Camarina to lead to Catania plain, provides the convenience for their military provisions military baggage transportation, but can also nearby support to surround that another Carthage army, after all that is separated by with Palagonia is not quite far, so long as captured that again, the southwest region of entire Catania plain under the control of Carthaginians, their armies can feel relieved that completely goes straight to under our city boldly. 攻下帕拉戈尼亚,迦太基人不但可以打通从卡曼利纳通向卡塔尼亚平原的平坦路段,为他们的军粮辎重运输提供便利,而且还可以就近支援包围赫那的另一支迦太基军队,毕竟赫那与帕拉戈尼亚相隔并不太远,只要再夺取了赫那,整个卡塔尼亚平原的西南区域就完全在迦太基人的控制之下,他们的军队就可以放心大胆的直抵我们的城下。 If Carthaginians attacks Leontium, so long as attacked and occupied it, the Carthage army continues either to north, bypasses the Leontium lake, attacks our newly-built military compounds ; Either commands the army to east, met with the Syracuse person, captures Tyndaris full power, once the Tyndaris downcast, their allied armies will press up to Catania. ” 而如果迦太基人进攻列奥提尼,只要攻占了它,迦太基军队要么继续向北,绕过列奥提尼湖,进攻我们的新建军营;要么率军向东,与锡拉库扎人会合,全力攻取陶尼斯,一旦陶尼斯陷落,他们的联军就会直逼卡塔奈。” Listens to the Leotychides words, the Siprus look is dignified, falls into the thinking, then not too definite asking: „Listens to the meaning in your words, the Carthaginians choice to attack the possibility of Palagonia to be biggest?” 听完列奥提齐德斯的话,西普洛斯神色凝重,陷入思索,然后不太确定的问道:“听你话里的意思,迦太基人选择进攻帕拉戈尼亚的可能性最大？” Worthily is the Sicily ablest chief executive, even does not direct the fight, can still through the splendid political smell, find the right key...... Leotychides in the nod that in the heart commended, said: „ I think, although Carthaginians and Syracuse person has joined up now, resists our Theonia, but they fought after all mutually for dozens years, relating is impossible to be intimate, if the Carthage choice attacks Leontium and Tyndaris this route, then its military provisions transportation must depend upon the Syracuse person most probably, I think that the command of any army will be impossible to relate to gives for several years that ago the army life and death the grain transport line will feel relieved completely on the ally of mortal enemy. 不愧是西西里最有能力的行政长官,即使不指挥战斗,也能通过出色的政治嗅觉,找到正确答案……列奥提齐德斯在心中赞许的点头,说道:“我认为虽然迦太基人和锡拉库扎人现在已经联合起来,对抗我们戴奥尼亚,但是他们毕竟相互战斗了几十年,关系不可能非常亲密,如果迦太基选择进攻列奥提尼、陶尼斯这条路线,那么它的军粮运输就要大半依靠锡拉库扎人,我想任何一支军队的统帅都不可能将关系到军队生死的粮食运输线完全放心的交给几年前还是死敌的盟友身上。 But after capturing Palagonia, the Carthaginians rear area is controlled by the person on one's own side completely, attack that they not only can feel relieved our Catania, can attack that Hadji Lihons, Hybla, occupies the entire Siculi mountainous area, by that time they threaten may incessantly be Catania, Naxos and Cooley, Carthaginians selectable leeway mostly. ” 而攻取帕拉戈尼亚之后,迦太基人的后方就完全由自己人掌控,他们不但可以放心的进攻我们卡塔奈,也可以攻打赫那、阿吉利翁、赫比塔,将整个西凯尔山区都占据,到那时他们所威胁到的可不止是卡塔奈,还有纳克索斯和西库利,迦太基人可选择的余地就大多了。” Siprus felt to worry, he urgently asked: „Can Palagonia defend?!” 西普洛斯更感到担忧了,他急问道:“帕拉戈尼亚能守住吗？！” Leotychides hesitated, then affirmative saying: „ Sir Siprus, you should know, several months ago Carthaginians has not entered the war truly, we Palagonia as defending Carthaginians attack fort, continuously uninterruptedly is reinforcing its city garrison, constructs massive defense facilities, therefore Palagonia obstructed Carthaginians attack several days before, Carthaginians has not even broken through the surrounding of Palagonia. 列奥提齐德斯迟疑了一下,然后肯定的说道:“西普洛斯大人,你应该知道,在几个月前迦太基人还没有真正参战的时候,我们就已经将帕拉戈尼亚作为防御迦太基人进攻的要塞,一直不间断的在加固它的城防,修建大量的防御设施,所以之前帕拉戈尼亚阻截了迦太基人的进攻好几天,迦太基人甚至都没有攻破帕拉戈尼亚的外围。 Originally, in Paragot Niya Town 2000 regiment reserve forces soldiers, the seventh regiment increased 2000 soldiers toward in few days ago, regarding a small defense fort, these military is enough. Even if Carthaginians attacks from its north now, even if sends the complete military, is not can capture in a short time, but now we most need is the protracted time. ” 原本,帕拉戈尼亚镇内就有2000名军团预备队士兵,前些日子第七军团又往里增派了2000名士兵,对于一个面积不大的防御要塞来说,这些兵力已经足够。就算现在迦太基人从它的北面进攻,即使派上全部的兵力,也绝不是短时间内能够攻下的,而我们现在最需要的就是拖延时间。” Siprus understands that row of mysterious raise kingdom's reinforcements that Chieders will refer to can arrive, but he will seem a little anxious: „I do not understand to the military, too did not understand that the present war changes, but if the light is comes under attack passively, places hopes in Carthaginians to defer to our ideas to do completely, I worried that can have what accident/surprise!” 西普洛斯明白列奥提奇德斯指的是将会到来的王国的援军,但他还是显得有点忧虑:“我对军事不太懂,也不太了解现在的战局变化,但如果光是被动挨打,寄希望于迦太基人完全按照我们的想法去做,我担心会有什么意外啊！” Leotychides raised the head, is gazing at Shipp Ross, said with emphasis: „Sir Siprus really thinks that what matter for these days I did sit, not to do at home?!” 列奥提齐德斯抬起头来,注视着希普洛斯,加重语气说道:“西普洛斯大人真的以为这几天我只是坐在家里、什么事都没做吗？！” Siprus hear the disaffection in Leotychides words, but his look is invariable, does not react. 西普洛斯听出列奥提齐德斯话里的不满,但他神色不变,也不作回应。 Leotychides coldly looked at his a while, continues saying: „ The quantity of this Carthage army big surpasses us . Moreover the battle efficiency is not weak, the branch of the services are also very complete, we are not truly able to conduct the positive/direct resistance with them, but this does not mean that the Carthage army does not have the shortcoming, they biggest shortcoming lies in the military provisions transportation! 列奥提齐德斯冷冷的看了他一会儿,又继续说道:“这一次迦太基军队的数量大大的超过我们,而且战斗力不弱,兵种也很齐全,我们确实无法同他们进行正面的对抗,但这并不意味着迦太基军队就没有缺点,他们最大的缺点就在于军粮运输！ Even if just the fall harvest ended now, Carthaginians had obtained the south coast various city-state grain, but also possibly has the Syracuse person to provide the aid, but reaches as high as 100,000 people of armies regarding such a soldier number, was still by far insufficient, perhaps according to my inference, the Sicily grain supply can only maintain Carthage army 1-2 moon/month, they needed the Carthage native place to send more grain to them, but you looked- ” 即使现在刚刚秋收结束,迦太基人已经获得了南海岸各城邦的粮食,还可能有锡拉库扎人提供援助,但对于这样一支士兵数量高达10万人的军队来说,仍然是远远不够,根据我的推断,西西里的粮食供给恐怕只能维持迦太基军队1-2月时间,他们需要迦太基本土向他们运送更多的粮食,但是你看-” The finger of Leotychides ignites Carthage this city icon on map, then has delimited the western waters and to Sicily west, has delimited Palagonia along the south coastline again, the tone is still desolate, but the look obviously was much luminous: „ So long grain transport line, Carthaginians is very difficult to assure its security. In the Carthage army attacks after the south Palagonia suffers setbacks, I concluded that they must surmount the mountain ridge, therefore related Siculians especially, making them organize the soldier, sneaks to the mountainous area of Catania plain south edge, waits for an opportunity to sneak attack the Carthaginians transporting grain team, but...... in the Carthage army has a substantial number of Iberia pitifully indigenous, they excel at the mountain ridge combat very much, enabling Siculians to obtain what victory, so long as the Siculi soldier has been moving in that region, Carthaginians never dares to relax vigilantly, this will involve their many energy. 列奥提齐德斯的手指点着地图上的迦太基本城图标,然后划过西部海域、到西西里西部,再沿着南部海岸线一直划到帕拉戈尼亚,语气依旧冷淡,但眼神明显光亮了不少:“如此漫长的粮食运输线,迦太基人很难保证它的安全。在迦太基军队从南面进攻帕拉戈尼亚受挫之后,我断定他们要翻越山岭,因此特地联系了西凯尔人,让他们组织战士,潜入到卡塔尼亚平原南部边缘的山区中,伺机偷袭迦太基人的运粮队,但是可惜……迦太基军队中有为数不少的伊比利亚土著,他们很擅长山岭作战,使得西凯尔人至今没能取得什么战果,但是只要西凯尔战士一直在那片区域活动着,迦太基人就始终不敢放松警惕,这会牵扯他们不少的精力。 Moreover, Sekrian leads the Sicily fleet time to cruise the south coast, so long as discovered that the Carthage transporting grain team, can land momentarily, sending out the fleet infantry to attack. I have also conducted the discussion with Sekrian, so long as he feels feasible, I can transfer several thousand soldiers to turn over to his director momentarily, takes the Sicily fleet, recaptures any city-state of south coast, even attacks and occupies the Sicily western Phoenicia cities...... the Carthage army is huge, once the grain transport line shut off, the collapse of its army will be quicker. ” 而且,塞克利安率领着西西里舰队时刻巡弋着南海岸,只要发现迦太基的运粮队,随时可以登陆,派出舰队步兵进行攻击。我还同塞克利安进行过商议,只要他觉得可行,我随时可以划拨几千名士兵归他指挥,乘坐西西里舰队,去夺回南海岸的任何一个城邦,甚至攻占西西里西部的腓尼基城镇……迦太基军队越是庞大,粮食运输线一旦被切断,它军队的崩溃就会越快。” At this point, Leotychides both eyes like the electricity, look straight ahead Siprus, resolute saying: „Therefore we do not need to dread the attack that Carthaginians threatens, the village was burnt down, but can also reconstruct, the farmland was destroyed , there, so long as we persevere Catania, will wait for the time, the Carthage army will expose their Hagues colored glaze the heel, by that time-” the right hand of Leotychides will make an effort will divide to below. 说到这里,列奥提齐德斯双目如电,直视西普洛斯,语气坚定的说道:“所以我们无须畏惧迦太基人气势汹汹的进攻,村庄被烧毁了,还可以再建,农田被破坏了,地还在那里,只要我们坚守住卡塔奈,等待时机,迦太基军队会暴露出他们的阿格琉斯之踵,到那时-”列奥提齐德斯的右手用力的向下一劈。 A moment later, Siprus showed the smile: „Listened to Sir Prosous your such saying, I felt relieved. You also felt relieved, I will think the means comforting people.” 片刻之后,西普洛斯露出了微笑:“听普罗索乌斯大人你这么一说,我就放心了。你也放心,我会想办法安抚民众。” After Siprus walks, Leotychides is still reading the map, his vision focuses in the icon of Palagonia, in his heart had a worry not to say a moment ago: How long can Palagonia persevere?! 西普洛斯走之后,列奥提齐德斯还在看着地图,他的目光聚焦在帕拉戈尼亚的图标上,他心中有一个担心在刚才没有说出来:帕拉戈尼亚能坚守多久？！ At this time, adjutant Gelug walked, said: „Sir, Axite Meese must see you.” 这时,副官塔格鲁走了进来,说道:“大人,阿西特米斯要见你。” The Leotychides complexion sank: „I had said to him several times, now is not the cavalry attacks, he how is turns a deaf ear.” 列奥提齐德斯的脸色沉了下来:“我已经给他说过几次了,现在不是骑兵出击的时候,他怎么就是听不进去啦。”
