Hearsthissaying, the Thuriienvoyrollsmanypeopleto have a big shock.
听到这话,图里伊使者团不少人大惊失色。Kunogelatahasto propose: Thurii must first holddiscussionin privateonthisissue, thenmakes the decision.库诺戈拉塔只好提出:图里伊先要就这个问题进行私下的讨论,再来做出决定。Davosnods assent. Saw that the Thuriienvoygrouparrives at the distant place, hethengives the thumbs-uptoStromboli: „SirStromboli, yousaida moment agotoowell!”戴弗斯点头同意。看到图里伊使者团走到远处,他回头对斯特隆波里竖起了大拇指:“斯特隆波里大人,你刚才说得太好了!”„I said that butrealsoul talk!”Stromboliis staringto say.
“我说的可是真心话!”斯特隆波里瞪着眼说道。„Iwantis the realsoul talk!”Davossaid with a smile.
“我要的就是真心话!”戴弗斯笑道。Strombolialsosmiled, heis in front ofThuriipersontodayfinally, ruthlesslyhad/left a foul odor!斯特隆波里也笑了,他今天终于当着图里伊人的面,狠狠的出了一口恶气!........................
……………………„, It seems likeAmendolarahad reached the unionagreementwithTaranto, moreoverAmendolaraobtains certainly the agreement of Taranto, put forwardsuchcondition. Ifwedo not acceptthiscondition, thisdiscussionwas impossibleto discussagain.”Kunogelatalookdignifiedsaying.
“诸位,看来阿门多拉腊已经与塔兰图姆达成了同盟协议,而且阿门多拉腊肯定是得到塔兰图姆的同意,才提出了这样的条件。如果我们不答应这个条件,这个会谈不可能再谈下去了。”库诺戈拉塔神色凝重的说道。„Thatdoes not discuss! The threat of Lucanianshas solvedin any case, wedo not needto goby the Amendolaraair/Qiagain!”Niansespanting in indignationsaying, thinks for a year ago, Amendolaratreats the Thuriienvoyrespectfulappearance, in an instantdaresto point atGeneralThuriito shout loudlyunexpectedly, the disparatedifference of thisshift in attitudemakesNiansesunendurable, hehates the sound saying: „DamnTaranto, thinks that theyhelpThuriiwholeheartedly, has not thought that plays a dirty tricksecretly!”
“那就不谈了!反正卢卡尼亚人的威胁已经解决,我们没必要再去受阿门多拉腊的气!”涅昂西斯气呼呼的说道,一想到一年前,阿门多拉腊对待图里伊使者必恭必敬的样子,转眼间竟然敢指着图里伊将军大喊大叫,这种态度变化的悬殊差异让涅昂西斯难以忍受,他恨声说道:“该死的塔兰图姆,原以为他们是真心诚意的帮助图里伊,没想到暗地里使坏!”Ansitanosis somewhat helpless: „Whomadeusdefeat! Weakcity-stateisimpossibleto be respected, thisis the rule of history. Weobtained the news, Bruttianshad stoppedwith the Crotonewar, at the Crotonepowwowsomepeoplementioning ’ excelled at the issue of Sybarisoldcityaboutus ’, this must make ourvigilance. Oncetheylaunch an attack, ourbehindishostileAmendolara, oursituations will be very dangerous! Moreover, wealsoknow that Lucaniansbears a grudgevery much, after thistimewar, does not know when theyrestore, but once theyrestore, invadesagain, keeps offinforefrontourThurii, can webeatthem? Does not need the help of Amendolara......”安西塔诺斯有些无奈:“谁让我们战败了呢!一个虚弱的城邦是不可能得到尊重的,这是历史的规律。我们都得到了消息,布鲁提人已经停止了与克罗托内的战争,克罗托内议事会中有人提到了’关于我们擅动绪巴里斯旧城址的问题’,这必须引起我们的警惕。一旦他们发难,我们的身后又是怀有敌意的阿门多拉腊,我们的处境会很危险!另外,我们也知道卢卡尼亚人是很记仇的,这一次的战争之后,不知道他们什么时候恢复,可一旦他们恢复,再次入侵,挡在最前面的还是我们图里伊,我们能击败他们吗?难道不需要阿门多拉腊的帮助……”
The Ansitanos words saying others to worry, Niansesagain and againcoldsnort/hum, buthas not spokenagain.安西塔诺斯一番话说得其他人忧心不已,涅昂西斯连连冷哼,但没有再说话。„Actually the key of thisissuelies inTarantobribesourThuriiambition.” The Kunogelatareminderpeople, hecarefullyanalyze saying: „Ithink that Tarantoshouldnot havethisattempt.

“其实这个问题的关键就在于塔兰图姆有没有染指我们图里伊的野心。”库诺戈拉塔提醒众人,他认真的分析道:“我想塔兰图姆应该没有这个企图。不然他们不会费尽心思倡导与建立大希腊防御同盟,共同对付土著人。如果他们想要染指图里伊,恐怕克罗托内、西里庭等城邦就会和我们联合起来反对他们,同盟就会瓦解,他们几年来的努力全都白费。而且就算他们占领了我们的城邦,扶持起亲近他们的傀儡政府,他们也是得不偿失,因为他们就将面对三股强大的敌人,东南面的梅萨皮人,西北方的卢卡尼亚人,西南面的克罗托内盟邦。一旦卢卡尼亚人或者克罗托内进犯,作为‘母邦’的塔兰图姆到那时候,可不是仅派1,000-2,000人到图里伊来,应付一下就行的。所以我觉得塔兰图姆之所以这样做,仅仅是因为我们曾经打败过他们,他们想要小小的报复一下。既然我们的先辈可以在四十多年前建城后短短的几年,就能让图里伊成为大希腊的大邦!只要我们暂时隐忍,齐心协力,一定能够在短短的时间内让图里伊重新崛起!阿门多拉腊、塔兰图姆给予我们的羞辱,我们一定会再还给他们,就像我们的先辈所做的那样!”„Right that SirKunogelatasaid!” The Kunogelatawordsroused the spirit of people, boostedtheirconfidence. Returnson the conference table, the Thuriipersonrefreshedly the firstcondition that complies withAmendolarato put forward.
“库诺戈拉塔大人说的对!”库诺戈拉塔的话振奋了众人的精神,鼓舞了他们的信心。重新回到谈判桌上,图里伊人爽快的答应了阿门多拉腊提出的第一个条件。Looked atoppositeKunogelata, Davosknows that thislookseemed like the somewhatgloomyold personplayed very majorrole.
看了看对面的库诺戈拉塔,戴弗斯知道这个相貌看起来有些阴郁的老人在其中起了很大的作用。At this time, Antoniosstoodagain, said: „In early April, ourarchon Davosoncesigned an employmentagreementwithThurii, the main contents of agreementare‚assist the ThuriidefenseandrepelLucanian’, the deadlineisa halfyear, in the half year, no matter the dutyis accomplishedor not, Thuriimustpay the mercenariesregularly the pay and certain amount ofgrain. Thisis the originally of agreement.”
这时,安东尼奥斯再次站起来,说道:“四月初,我们的执政官戴弗斯曾与图里伊签署了一份雇佣协议,协议的主要内容是‘协助图里伊防御和击退卢卡利亚人’,期限为半年,这半年内不管任务完成与否,图里伊都要定期付给雇佣军薪酬和一定数量的谷物。这是协议的原本。”AntoniosgivesoppositeAnsitanos the sheepskinvolume in hand: „According to the agreement stipulated that even ifLucanianshad been repelled, Thurii must continueto pay the mercenaries the pay and provisions, but the mercenarieswill still continuerequirements in the executive agreement, ‚defendsThurii, finisheduntila halfyear of deadline.’Nowarrives at your pay and graintime.”安东尼奥斯将手中的羊皮卷递给对面的安西塔诺斯:“按照协议规定,即使卢卡尼亚人已经被击退,图里伊还得继续付给雇佣军薪酬和给养,而雇佣军仍将继续执行协议中的要求,‘保卫图里伊,直到半年期限结束。’现在就到了你们该付薪酬和谷物的时候了。”Kunogelatanods, just about toreplies.库诺戈拉塔点点头,刚要回答。Niansesstandsto sayrapidly: „Thuriidoes not prepareto carry outthisemploymentagreement!”涅昂西斯迅速站起来说道:“图里伊不准备执行这个雇佣协议!”Not is only the Amendolaraenvoyrollsin an uproar, the Thuriiperson is also very surprised. Before coming, theyhad discussedthismatter, thinks it is necessary to continueto carry outthisagreement, becauseDavoshas becomeAmendolaralifelongarchon , hiredDavos, was equal toemployingAmendolara. Firstthiscansatisfy the Thuriipersonpitifulself-respect, the most important thing is the presentThuriistrengthsignificantlyweakens, itactuallyreallyneedsDavosto leadto have the mercenariesprotection of verystrongbattle efficiency, with the aim oflettingitscalm and steadypassrecovery period. At that timeNiansesfor was once opposedby the state treasuryvoid,finallywas convincedbyKunogelata, has not thoughtat crucial moment, Niansesreneged on a promiseunexpectedly, hitoneto be caught off guardto the Thuriienvoygroup.
不光是阿门多拉腊使者团一片哗然,图里伊人也很吃惊。来之前他们就讨论过这事儿,认为有必要继续执行这个协议,因为戴弗斯已经成为阿门多拉腊的终身执政官,雇佣了戴弗斯,也就等于雇用了阿门多拉腊。首先这能够满足图里伊人可怜的自尊心,最重要的是现在的图里伊实力大为削弱,它其实很需要戴弗斯率领具有很强战斗力的雇佣军保护,以便让它安稳的度过恢复期。当时涅昂西斯就曾以国库空虚为由进行反对,最后被库诺戈拉塔说服,没想到在关键时候,涅昂西斯居然又反悔,给图里伊使者团打了一个措手不及。Undervision that Kunogelatacoldly, the Nianseshearttrembles, hurriesto avoid, becauseimpulsesto be compellednearcliffhimto brace oneselffor a while , to continue saying: „First, initially the object of Thuriisigningwasmercenaries, now the mercenarieshave become the Amendolaracitizen, signed a side the statusto change, but an employmentcity-statecitizensoldierinvolvedmorecomplexinterest relations and procedures, was notthissimpleemploymentagreementcansolve;Next, youshould the name that noticesthisagreementto signfinallybeGeneralFriis, initiallywashemakesBurkesbe responsible forrecruiting the mercenarymatters concerned, when thisagreementbrought back the Thuriicity hall, mostgeneralsexpressed the oppositionto the agreementcontent, finallywasFriisapprovedthisagreementin the name ofchiefgeneralforcefully, becausehesaid that hewill be responsible forarranginghalf ofpayandprovisions, therefore the agreementsignedhisname, butnowheandhisfamilyalmostdied in battlein the battlefield, therefore......”
在库诺戈拉塔冷冷的目光下,涅昂西斯心头一颤,慌忙避开,因为一时冲动而被逼到悬崖边上的他硬着头皮,继续说道:“首先,当初图里伊签约的对象是雇佣军,现在雇佣军已经成为了阿门多拉腊公民,签约一方的身份已经改变,而雇佣一个城邦的公民兵则牵涉到更多复杂的利益关系和程序,不是这简单的雇佣协议能够解决的;其次,你们应该注意到这份协议最后签署的名字是斐瑞斯将军,当初是他让布尔科斯负责招募雇佣兵事宜,这份协议拿回图里伊市政厅时,大部分将军都对协议内容表示了反对,最终是斐瑞斯以首席将军的名义强行通过了这份协议,因为他说他将自己负责筹备其中一半的薪酬和给养,所以协议签署了他一人的名字,而现在他和他的家族几乎都战死在了战场,所以……”„I! Thuriipersonnot onlyselfish, but alsodoes not keep one's word, notashamed, includingisThuriifights bravelyold peopleuntil death to slander!......”Stromboligives scoldingagain, making the Amendolarapersonvent spleen, making the Thuriipersonashamed.
“我呸!图里伊人不但自私,而且不讲信用,没有羞耻,连为图里伊奋战至死的老人都要诋毁!……”斯特隆波里再次痛骂,让阿门多拉腊人解气,让图里伊人羞愧。DavossawKunogelatato drawAnsitanosto sayanythinganxiouslyin a low voice, busythensignals with the eyestoMarigi, Marigistandsto sayimmediately: „Weagreed that yourproposition, abandonsthisemploymentagreement! Butbecause ofnot listening toyourexplanation, because wedo not think that Thuriiincreases the specialtax revenuebecause of the voidstate treasuryadditionally, making the sorrowfulThuriipeoplesuffer! After allAmendolaraandThuriionceweremanyyears of ally!” A Marigiwoefulfacial expression.戴弗斯见库诺戈拉塔急切拉着安西塔诺斯低声说着什么,忙回头对马里吉使了个眼色,马里吉立刻站起来说:“我们同意你的提议,废弃这个雇佣协议!但不是因为听了你的解释,而是因为我们不想图里伊因为空虚的国库而额外增加特别的税收,使本就悲痛的图里伊民众更加痛苦!毕竟阿门多拉腊与图里伊曾是多年的盟友!”马里吉一副悲天悯人的神情。
The Amendolarapersonkept a serious lookincludingStromboli, thismade the Thuriipersonmore ashamed.阿门多拉腊人包括斯特隆波里都表情严肃,这使得图里伊人更加羞愧。Kunogelatalooks atNiansesindifferently, Niansesdoes not haveto argue the successfulsense of achievement.库诺戈拉塔冷眼看涅昂西斯,涅昂西斯也没有一丝争辩成功的成就感。„AmendolaraandThuriinot only need defend the commonenemymilitarily, we should also enhance the cooperation...... Marigito continueto speak with confidencein the trade”, provisionpersuasivesaying that beforeandDavosdiscussed.
“阿门多拉腊与图里伊不但要在军事上防御共同的敌人,在贸易上我们也应该加强合作……”马里吉继续侃侃而谈,将之前与戴弗斯商量的条款婉转的说出来。
The Thuriipersonstems fromguilty, manyexpressed the agreement, sincestemmed from beforecancels the psychology of employmentagreementto be guilty, simultaneouslysomeprovisions also helpedsolve the Thuriidifficulty, for example: Because the harbor in Thuriicitylong-termflooding into of freeman, externalmerchant shipandsailor, becomesjam-packed, the lodgingdifficulty, the expensesurges upward, originally many complaints. Butprevioustime, forinwinswith the Lucaniansbattle , the city halldecided that recruits the freemanto go out of town the combat, ‚the freeman who andwill announcewill win, enters the war after orallyby the giftThuriicivil rights’, the resultbattleended, the Thuriirout, the freemancasualties will also be serious, towill most come the Lucaniatribeallied armiesto be annihilated, living the combatfreemanwill request the Thuriicity hallto keep the promise, but after the Thuriigenerals and powwowwere discussed that thinks: Lucanianswas repelled, is completely the mercenaries and merit of TarantoReinforcements, the freemanhas not participated in the laterwar of annihilation. On the contrary, in the beforehandwar, the freemenfirstretreats, causes the failure of entirebattle, therefore the freemansimplyhave no reasonto requestto obtain the civil rights.图里伊人出于愧疚,多数都表示了同意,既是出于对之前取消雇佣协议的心理愧疚,同时有些条款也同样有利于解决图里伊的困难,比如:图里伊城内的港口因为自由民、外来商船和水手的长期涌入,变得拥挤不堪,住宿困难,费用高涨,本就有不少抱怨。可偏偏上一次为了在与卢卡尼亚人会战中获胜,市政厅决定招募自由民出城作战,并口头宣布‘获胜后参战的自由民将被赠予图里伊公民权’,结果会战结束,图里伊大败,自由民也伤亡惨重,到最来卢卡尼亚部落联军被歼灭,活着的参战自由民要求图里伊市政厅履行诺言,但图里伊的将军们和议事会经过商讨后,认为:卢卡尼亚人被击退,完全是雇佣军和塔兰图姆援军的功劳,自由民并没有参与之后的歼灭战。相反,在之前的大战中,自由民们最先溃退,导致整个会战的失败,因此自由民根本没有理由要求获得公民权。
The rejection of Thuriimakes the freemenbe dissatisfied, a tightatmospherestartsto fill the airinharbor area, picks a quarrel, fightsandcauses troublegraduallyincreases, the city hallhas toincreaseharborpatrol leaders to deterthesedangerous elements, the issueis the Thuriipresentyoung adultscitizen more than 3000people, butfreemen in harbor area and cityare much more, oncecauses the unrest, thatwill be a disaster. Therefore, Amendolaraconstructs the warehouse and hotel , helping disperse the Thuriiharborcrowdedstream of people, the alleviationcontradiction, is favorableforThurii.图里伊的拒绝让自由民们感到不满,一种紧张的气氛开始在港口区弥漫,寻衅、打架、闹事逐渐增多,市政厅不得不增加港口的巡逻队人数以威慑那些危险分子,问题是图里伊现在的青壮年公民不过三千多人,而港口区和城内的自由民却多得多,一旦引起骚乱,那将会是一场灾难。因此,阿门多拉腊建仓库和旅馆,有利于分散图里伊港口拥挤的人流,缓解矛盾,对图里伊是有利的。both sideseventuallyreached the unionagreement, buthas not signed, becauseAmendolarastemming fromrespecting the Tarantoreason, mustfirstdeliverTarantoarchon and councilscrutinization the agreementcontent, confirmed after has not infringed the Tarantobenefit, cancomplete the finalsignature.
双方最终达成了同盟协议,但还没有签署,因为阿门多拉腊出于尊重塔兰图姆的原因,要先将协议内容交与塔兰图姆的执政官和元老院审阅,确认没有损害到塔兰图姆的利益之后,才能完成最后的签署。
