Amon said looking pensive: „ Regiment on Pivot Sky Continent forms the form, likely therefore changes. The battlefield that Alexander Angel uses now, greatest displayed the Macedonian existing advantage. Feared that the later generation is not clear, after situation still defended stubbornly the outmoded rules and regulations, wins also from this, defeat also from this. 阿蒙若有所思道:“天枢大陆上的军团组建形式,很可能因此而改变。亚历山大今天使用的战阵,最大程度的发挥了马其顿现有的优势。就怕后人不明白,当形势变化之后仍然固守陈规,胜也由此、败也由此。 Metatro, you moved the thoughts of receiving the disciple? Actually does not need to regret, prepares the person to be prepared the pursue of person, even if awakened the strength of source, becomes the Spiritual God still to hope uncertainly. Alexander's vowing is a King, that is a King, you regretted for him, who asking the publication person also is not worth sympathizing? ” 梅丹佐,你又动了收门徒的心思吗？其实不必惋惜,备人有备人的追求,就算唤醒了本源的力量,成为神灵也希望渺茫。亚历山大的誓愿是做一位王者,那就去做一位王者吧,你为他惋惜,请问世人还有谁不值得同情？” Amon lived in Macedonia, is not noticeable, except for a few knows personally his status, overwhelming majority natives of Macedonia have not even noticed his existence. As for Metatro, Warrior of this handsome power and prestige is very noticeable, but most people were not clear that his special status, only knows that he had once helped outside nation Warrior of mission on the road, very by thinking highly of Prince Alexander. 阿蒙在马其顿住了下来,毫不引人注目,除了少数几个人知道他的身份,绝大部分马其顿人甚至没有注意到他的存在。至于梅丹佐,这位英俊威风的武士很是惹人注目,但绝大多数人也不清楚他的特殊身份,只知道他是曾在路上帮助过使团的外邦武士,很受亚历山大王子的器重。 After king Philip II listened to Alexander's suggestion, inquired in detail prince and Amon and the others talk processes, then convenes the whole body of ministers to discuss the military reform, according to this style formed first Regiment. 国王腓力二世听取了亚历山大的建议之后,详细询问了王子殿下与阿蒙等人的谈话经过,然后召集群臣商议军事改革,按这种方式组建了第一支军团。 Although Macedonia is north the Sidon peninsula the most powerful nation, but also only then 1800 Warrior that awakened the bloodlines strength, standing-by cavalry also only has more than 1000. Philip II maximum displays the battle efficiency of infantry, formed the long spear/gun battlefield, overawed the continent Ancient Macedonian military afterward, this regular Regiment first Legion Commander, is his son Alexander. 马其顿虽是希顿半岛北部最强大的邦国,但也只有一千八百名唤醒了血脉力量的武士,常备骑兵也只有一千多。腓力二世最大限度的发挥步兵的战斗力,组建了长枪战阵,也就是后来威震大陆的马其顿方阵,这正规军团的第一任军团长,就是他的儿子亚历山大。 The Mt. Yali bumper year only 18 years old became Legion Commander, this is not only king's Test to successor, another more important reason, the new infantry battlefield is Alexander creates. 亚历山大年仅十八岁就当上了军团长,这既是国王陛下对继承人的考验,另一个更重要的原因,新的步兵战阵便是亚历山大所创造。 This Regiment enrolls 4096 long spear/gun soldiers officially, forms infantry thousand people of teams every 1024 people, is led by a general. 这个军团正式编入四千零九十六名长枪兵,每1024人组成一个步兵千人队,由一名将军率领。 Each thousand people of teams manage four long spear/gun square formations, each square formation including 256 soldiers. And forms a combat unit every 128 people, can go forth to battle when the fight in turn alternately. The combat unit of this most foundation is divided into two squads, each team of 64 people, Captain directs. 每个千人队下辖四个长枪方阵,每个方阵包括二百五十六名战士。其中每128人组成一个作战单位,在战斗时可以轮流交替上阵。这个最基础的作战单位又分成两个小队,每队六十四人,有一名队长指挥。 Philip II sent out in Kingdom the most experienced military officer, assists Alexander to drill army, but Metatro also often directs Alexander , helping supply ideas. 腓力二世派出了王国中最有经验的将领,辅佐亚历山大操演军阵,而梅丹佐也时常指点亚历山大,帮忙出谋划策。 These 4000 long spear/gun soldiers are the Regiment operational cores, but Amon had pointed out fatal defect that this battlefield has, therefore usually must train various branch of the services coordination and flank protections, cavalry and assists the infantry is also this Regiment important combat force, their majority comprised of regular Warrior. 这四千名长枪兵是军团的作战核心,而阿蒙已经指出了这种战阵存在的致命缺陷,所以平时还要训练各兵种配合与侧翼保护,骑兵以及辅助步兵也是这个军团重要的作战力量,他们大部分都是由正规武士组成。 Philip II has a great ambition of series Seaton peninsula, wants to realize it, from building this Regiment starts, moreover makes Alexander in forming the Regiment process establishes the authority. Alexander this 18-year-old Legion Commander, is the Macedonian Kingdom future successor, Philip II also hopes that he can gradually control the military from now on. 腓力二世有一统西顿半岛的雄心,想实现它,就从打造这个军团开始,而且让亚历山大在组建军团的过程中建立权威。亚历山大这位18岁的军团长,是马其顿王国将来的继承人,腓力二世也希望他从现在起就能够逐渐掌控军方。 After mission return that since Aristotle leads, the shameful behavior that Aaron person is perfidious has publicized, when everyone is waiting for Philip II to dispatch troops to crusade against Aaron. After new Regiment forms, the Philip II first conquering goal, unexpectedly is in Sidon peninsula Delphi. 自从亚里士多德率领的使团归来之后,雅伦人背信弃义的可耻行为已经公开,所有人都在等待着腓力二世何时发兵讨伐雅伦。然而当新军团组建之后,腓力二世第一个征服的目标,竟然是希顿半岛中部的德尔菲。 The first army that Alexander forms personally, the name is Delphi Regiment. When Philip II decided the royal cart drafts, the decision kept the Macedonian regent Alexander, the king acted the Legion Commander duty personally. This Regiment has Master Priest and two vice- Master Priest, once Aaron high priest Merring was one of the vice- Master Priest, with Great Warrior Morley who Merring surrendered together, was the generals of four director thousand people of teams uses for a year to form and train Regiment, when must go to battle truly actually stayed behind, depression in Alexander heart could be imagined. Philip II said to him: „My son, do not worry, all of Macedonia in the future are your. Delphi regarding all Sidon person is a very special place, something are not suited by you are done.” 亚历山大亲手组建的第一个军,名字就叫作德尔菲军团。当腓力二世决定御驾亲征的时候,却决定将亚历山大留在马其顿监国,国王陛下亲自代理了军团长的职务。这个军团有一名主神官和两名副主神官,曾经的雅伦大祭司梅林就是副主神官之一,与梅林一起归降的大武士伊莫莱,也是四名指挥千人队的将军之用一年时间组建与训练军团,等到真正要出征的时候却被留下了,亚历山大心中的郁闷可想而知。腓力二世却对他说道:“我的儿子,你不要着急,马其顿的一切在将来都是你的。德尔菲对于全体希顿人来说是个很特殊的地方,有些事情不适合由你来做。” Delphi special? It is Olympus various God sacred place on Sidon peninsula. Delphi is only equivalent to small-scale City State from the scale, it does not have the city wall, establishes in a mountain halfway, the main construction is all kinds of Temple, the main resident is priest in various Temple, various City State give to these priest slaves. 德尔菲到底有多特殊？它是奥林匹斯诸神在希顿半岛上的“圣地”。德尔菲从规模来看只相当于一个小型的城邦,它没有城墙,建立在一座大山的半腰,主要建筑是各式各样的神殿,主要的居民是各座神殿中的祭司,还有各城邦献给这些祭司们的奴隶。 It is well known, Olympus Pantheon altogether has 12 Master of Gods, prepares Master of Gods that City State believes to be different, they do what is right in the world. However „Sidon unites Kingdom” existence of this concept, not only because of geography reason, although the numerous nations do things their own way, but since truly has also had one „the flood Sidon alliance”, maintains the core of this alliance is Delphi oracle. 众所周知,奥林匹斯神系共有十二位主神,备城邦所信奉的主神不尽相同,它们在人间各行其是。但是“希顿联合王国”这个概念的存在,又不仅仅是因为地理原因,虽然众邦国各自为政,但一直也以来确实存在着一个“泛希顿联盟”,维系这个联盟的核心就是德尔菲神谕。 When various Sidon nations want the joint operations, will send out the representative to come to the Spiritual God to ask for instructions to Delphi, oracle that here obtains called Delphi oracle, it had to exceed to prepare the City State oracle highest authority. But here annual offering sacrifices grand ceremony, prepares the nation to send the representative to participate, it is Sidon unites Kingdom most important sacrifice god ceremony. 当希顿各邦国要联合行动的时候,会派出代表到德尔菲来向神灵请示,在这里得到的神谕叫德尔菲神谕,它具有超越备城邦神谕的最高权威。而这里每年一度的献祭大典,备邦国都会派代表参加,它是希顿联合王国最重要的祭神仪式。 Therefore the position of Delphi is in name independent outside preparing the nation, is not involved in the civil war dispute between City State. But aloof position in Delphi this surface, comes under the world complex political military influence inevitably, when Aaron Union dominates, the promulgation power control of Delphi oracle in Aaron person hand, leads various City State to Delphi to is also Aaron person who the Spiritual God offers sacrifices. 所以德尔菲的地位名义上独立于备邦国之外,并不卷入城邦之间的内战纷争。但德尔菲这种表面上的超然地位,也必然受到人间复杂的政治军事影响,在雅伦同盟称霸的时候,德尔菲神谕的颁布权控制在雅伦人手中,领导各城邦向在德尔菲向神灵献祭的也是雅伦人。 Now Aaron Union situation is difficult, Kibada Union is striving for hegemony to occupy the absolute winning side, Delphi oracle promulgation power controls in the hand of Jiba expert. This in the Sidon peninsula historical is commonly seen, often is the most powerful nation has Delphi oracle promulgation power by the strength, thus becomes Sidon Sidon to unite the Kingdom leader in fact. 如今雅伦同盟处境艰难,基巴达同盟在争霸中占了绝对的上风,德尔菲神谕的颁布权又控制在基巴达人的手里。这在希顿半岛的历史上已是司空见惯,往往是最强大的邦国凭借实力掌握德尔菲神谕的颁布权,从而在事实上成为希顿希顿联合王国的领袖。 However the matter that Philip II must handle, unlike the historical seniors, the according to original tradition, he must make various City State submit to and establish most powerful Macedonian Union, then tries to control Delphi oracle. However he actually very simple dispatching troops, decides to occupy Delphi directly, this act will definitely direct other to prepare City State's to dread and oppose. 但是腓力二世要做的事情,与历史上的前辈都不同,按照原本的传统,他须让各城邦臣服、建立最强大的马其顿同盟,然后再设法掌控德尔菲神谕。然而他却很干脆的出兵,决定直接占领德尔菲,此举必然会引成其它备城邦的忌惮与反对。 Philip II does that will cause all potential enemies to become the public opponent, but he decided. This is perhaps related with Zeus oracle, but a more important reason is, overlord who Philip II not just wants to make the Sidon peninsula, does not want to establish powerful Macedonian Union, but must unify the Sidon peninsula prestige is a complete state. 腓力二世这么做,会导致所有潜在的敌人都会成为公开的反对者,但他还是决定了。这也许与宙斯的神谕有关,但更重要的原因在于,腓力二世并不是只想做希顿半岛的霸主,也不是想建立强大的马其顿同盟,而是要统一希顿半岛威为一个完整的国度。 If occupies Delphi to succeed, will then establish Macedonian Kingdom to unify the foundation of Sidon peninsula in the future thoroughly ; If unfortunately failure, is the action of antagonizing people, perhaps will also offend the Spiritual God, making all potential enemies expose. Therefore this Philip II decides to draft time, and does not allow oneself successor Alexander to participate. 若占据德尔菲成功,则奠定了马其顿王国将来彻底统一希顿半岛的基础;若是不幸失败,则是树敌之举,说不定还会开罪神灵,让所有潜在的敌人都暴露出来。所以这一次腓力二世决定亲征,并且不让自己的继承人亚历山大参与。 At Alexander's age, is in the instinct the hobby exploration and impulsion time, Regiment that such serious matter, gone to battle he forms single-handedly, he is actually not able to participate, in the heart the nature is depressed, makes anything not to be interested. At this time he remembered usually in that always to teach his old pedant Aristotle, therefore rushed to teacher here to complain. 以亚历山大的年纪,正是天性中爱好探险与冲动的时候,这么重大的事情,出征的还是他一手组建的军团,他本人却无法参与,心中自然闷闷不乐,做什么都提不起兴趣。这时候他又想起平日里那个总是敦敦教诲他的老学究亚里士多德,于是跑到老师这里诉苦。 Aristotle smiles is comforting him saying: „King drafts, keeps the successor to the throne regent, this is the most normal practice, your responsibility also lies in this. Shoulders responsibility that oneself deals with, why do you want to sigh?” 亚里士多德则微笑着宽慰他道:“国王亲征,留王位继承人监国,这是最正常做法,你的责任也在于此。肩负自己应付的责任,你为何要叹息呢？” Alexander somewhat depressed saying: „I understand this truth, otherwise not obedient stays in Macedonia. But that is my oneself creation battlefield and Regiment that forms with the training, must carry out such significant task, I do not have the opportunity to participate, is unable to confirm its battle efficiency personally, enjoys that glory and achievement.” 亚历山大有些懊丧的说道:“我明白这个道理,否则也不会乖乖的留在马其顿。可那是我自己创造的战阵、一手组建与训练的军团,要执行这么重大的任务,我却没有机会参与,无法亲自验证它的战斗力,享受那荣耀与成就。” Aristotle also urged: „ War not only means that the glory and achievement, this combat general decides the future of Sidon peninsula, even decided the Gods position. No one will let one 19 years old, not get up the battlefield general to direct, this is irresponsible to the entire Kingdom destiny. 亚里士多德又劝道:“战争不仅意味着荣耀与成就,这一战将决定希顿半岛的未来,甚至决定了众神的地位。没有人会让一个只有十九岁、从来没有上过战场的将军去指挥,这样是对整个王国的命运不负责任。 If your Royal Father succeeded, the glory and achievement were still you, because that is Regiment that you form and train, but the director in battlefield should be under the charge to the experienced person. Summarizes this new tactical rules in the actual combat the success and failure, can let you in the future better drill and training army. 如果你的父王成功了,荣耀与成就仍然属于你,因为那是你组建与训练的军团,只是战场上的指挥应该由更有经验的人去负责。在实战中总结这种新战法的得失,可以让你在将来更好的操演与训练军阵。 If this time went to battle has not succeeded and even offended Gods unfortunately, was not your crime. Macedonian Kingdom, you will still inherit it, inherits all experiences and lessons. 如果这次出征不幸没有成功、甚至开罪了众神,也不是属于你的罪过。马其顿王国还在,你将继承它,也继承所有的经验与教训。 Your father's approach, in fact takes the blame for that possibly can be stricken, removes as far as possible many barriers for you. You should not sigh, but is full of the gratitude. ” 你父亲的做法,实际上是背负了可能会遭致的罪名,为你扫除尽量多的障碍。你不应该叹息,而是充满感激。” Aristotle is clearly telling Alexander, the dirty job and tiring work are done by Philip II, possibly offends the infamy that the Spiritual God the consequence and incurs also to carry by him, actually puts down the barrier on path, will leave the future successor the glory and achievement. Philip II possibly is not a benevolent and sagacious monarchy, but from father's angle, he does for Alexander has been close to perfect. 亚里士多德分明在告诉亚历山大,脏活、累活都由腓力二世去干,可能得罪神灵的后果以及招致的骂名也都由他来背,却扫平道路上的障碍,将荣耀与成就留给将来的继承人。腓力二世可能并不是一位仁慈而贤明的君主,但从父亲的角度,他为了亚历山大所做的已接近于完美。 Alexander frame of mind is slightly even, these truth he can certainly think through, actually some unwilling asking: „I heard past Mr. Amon held the post of Egypt An-Ra Regiment Legion Commander time, was only 19 years old, that was also Regiment that he and Teacher Metatro formed and train single-handedly. If in going to battle, Mr. Amon actually stayed behind, how he will be intimate?” 亚历山大心气稍平,这些道理他当然能想通,却又有些不甘心的问道:“我听说当年的阿蒙先生担任埃居安一拉军团军团长的时候,也不过只有十九岁,那也是他与梅丹佐老师一手组建与训练的军团。假如在出征的时候,阿蒙先生却被留下,他会怎么想昵？” Aristotle shows a faint smile: „You can ask Amon.” 亚里士多德微微一笑:“你可以去问阿蒙。” Amon walked exactly, tranquil replying: „ Prince, I and your situation is different. I do not have the responsibility of regent, moreover on me the battlefield goal is to rescue my clansman. Then secure. drawing Regiment is only an auxiliary military force, purely to attract enemy attention, no one counted on that I can win a battle. 阿蒙恰好走了进来,平静的答道:“王子殿下,我与你的情况是不一样的。我没有监国的责任,而且我上战场的目的是为了救我的族人。当时的安.拉军团只是一支偏师,纯粹为了吸引敌方注意力,没有人指望我能打胜仗。 That time goes to battle, the true main force is Horus Regiment and Isis Regiment that Pharaoh leads, because just the main force defeated, had my meritorious achievements. But Delphi Regiment that today you form is Macedonian Army main force, personally is led by your father. You give an example with me, is wants your father to be defeated, waits for oneself to succeed? ” 那次出征,真正的主力是法老率领的荷鲁斯军团与伊西丝军团,正因为主力败了,才有了我的功业。而今天您所组建的德尔菲军团是马其顿大军的主力,由您的父亲亲自率领。你拿我举例,难道是希望你的父亲失败,等待着自己成功吗？” Alexander hurries to stand up to explain: „I do not have such idea certainly!” 亚历山大赶紧站起身来解释道:“我绝无这样的想法！” Amon nods saying: „Without such idea, do not have this sigh. When we sighed, must be clear that is sighing anything!” 阿蒙点了点头道:“既没有这样的想法,就不要有这种叹息。当我们叹息的时候,一定要清楚在叹息什么！” Alexander in the face of this Spiritual God, cannot help but always well-mannered, he bows saying: ” I understood, many thanks the mister elucidates. ” 亚历山大在这位神灵面前,不由自主总是规规矩矩,他躬身道:”我明白了,多谢先生开解。” Aristotle also said: „ Your status may not only be Legion Commander, being interested cannot merely be the military. 亚里士多德又说道:“你的身份可不仅仅是一位军团长,感兴趣的也不能仅仅是军事。 You must inherit this Kingdom in the future, how now just may learn from the ministers to handle various government affairs, the solution governs an issue in national. Since got it, hurried to return to the royal palace. ” 你在将来要继承这个王国,现在正可向大臣们学习如何处理各种政务,解决治理一个国家方方面面的问题。既然明白了,就赶紧回王宫吧。” Alexander walked, Metatro enters in the room, is frowning saying: „Philip II first attacks and occupies Delphi, this is the action of antagonizing people, will not do well will offend the Spiritual God, regardless of the victory or defeat is holding the hornet's nest.” 亚历山大走了,梅丹佐走进屋中,皱着眉头说道:“腓力二世首先攻占德尔菲,这可是树敌之举啊,弄不好会开罪神灵,无论胜败都是在捅马蜂窝。” Amon faint smile: „Perhaps the intention of some Spiritual God so, unifies the Sidon peninsula, unifies Olympus Divine Domain, ends prestige duty Macedonian Kingdom, must first control Olympus Gods in the world sacred place.” 阿蒙似笑非笑道:“恐怕某位神灵的用意就是如此,统一希顿半岛,就是统一奥林匹斯神域,完威这个任务的马其顿王国,首先就要控制奥林匹斯众神在人间的圣地。” Metatro also said: „Present Delphi oracle, by Apollo Temple issue, but is very long beforehand Delphi oracle, is issued by Themis Temple. This Themis Goddess, is not Artemis that you know, is not one of the Olympus present 12 Master of Gods, have you heard her?” 梅丹佐又说道:“如今的德尔菲神谕,是由阿波罗神殿发布的,而很久以前的德尔菲神谕,是由忒弥斯神殿发布的。这位忒弥斯女神,可不是您所认识的阿尔忒弥斯,也不是奥林匹斯如今的十二位主神之一,您听说过她吗？” Amon shakes the head saying: „I am not understood very much, this situation possibly is the wars of various god creates, because Zeus replaced originally the God of Genesis position.” 阿蒙摇了摇头道:“我并不是很了解,这种情况可能是诸神之战造成的,因为宙斯取代了原先创世神的地位。” Metatro also asked: „But present Delphi oracle, why is issued by Apollo Temple?” 梅丹佐又问道:“可是如今的德尔菲神谕,为何是由阿波罗神殿发布的呢？” Aristotle explained: „The matter about Spiritual God I do not want to interrupt, but I understand the Sidon history. According to the ancient legend, in the war of Gods you mentioned, Zeus gained the victory, but Apollo possibly strove most, this was the victory that he obtained. On the other hand, possibly is he in offering that the world once received most, this is the result of historical inheritance. As for Themis Goddess, is god of fair and justice in Sidon myth, Delphi oracle long ago was by her Temple issue.” 亚里士多德解释道:“关于神灵的事情我不想插嘴,但我更了解希顿的历史。根据古老的传说,在你们提到的众神之战中,宙斯取得了胜利,而阿波罗可能出力最多,这是他取得的胜果。另一方面,也可能是他在人间曾受到的进献最多,这是历史传承的结果。至于忒弥斯女神,是希顿神话中的公平与正义之神,德尔菲神谕在很久之前是由她的神殿发布的。” Metatro smiled: „If Philip II occupied Delphi, Macedonian Kingdom controlled Delphi oracle promulgation power, perhaps then Delphi oracle must change to issue from Zeus Temple, Apollo will perhaps not want.” 梅丹佐笑了:“如果腓力二世占领了德尔菲,马其顿王国控制了德尔菲神谕的颁布权,那么德尔菲神谕恐怕就要改从宙斯神殿发布了,阿波罗也许不会愿意。” Amon also smiled: „ Zeus is actually willing to see. ’ 阿蒙也笑了:“宙斯却愿意看见。’ The Aristotle forced smile said: „ You still remember that has watched the play in the Aaron city? Apollo Temple grasps Delphi oracle, the ridicule that therefore this Spiritual God received the world are also most. 亚里士多德苦笑道:“你们还记得在雅伦城中看过的戏剧吗？阿波罗神殿掌握德尔菲神谕,因此这位神灵在人间受到的嘲笑也最多。 In «Oedipus King» that play, on Apollo Temple wall inscribes a few words ’ to know that your oneself ’, said is Apollo Temple of Delphi. ” 在《俄狄浦斯王》那出戏里,阿波罗神殿的墙上铭刻着一句话’认识你自己’,说的就是德尔菲的阿波罗神殿。” Amon sighs with emotion: „Actually such words, writes to the Spiritual God looked that the Spiritual God should know that what Spiritual God oneself is.” 阿蒙感慨道:“其实那样的话,也是写给神灵看的,神灵更应该知道自己是什么样的神灵。” ( to be continued ) (未完待续)
