one side beats the other and that's the war for now.

一方攻打另一方这就是战争
Until we get, of course, this is early days,

当然这指的是早期
until we get to the Peloponnesian War

直到伯罗奔尼撒战争
when things change radically in fighting in general,

才全面改写了战争规则
but this is your standard. Yes sir?

但你可把这当做一种标准时长请讲
- You had mentioned that the losing side casualty numbers

-您前面提到了伤亡者
were approximately about 15%?

大约是百分之十五
- Yeah, it could be that bad.

-对大概就是这么惨
- If you're fighting for an hour or two hours,

-如果战斗持续了一两个小时
it just seems like that would be such a low number.

那这个伤亡数字可算是相当低了
- Well, you got to realize that much of the time, until the phalanx breaks,

-你要知道在方阵被打乱前的大部分时间里
there's not a lot of killing that can go on.

不会有太多的伤亡
