§11.33.1ἐπεὶ δʼ ἔδοξε τὸ δέον αὐτῷ γίνεσθαι, πρὸς μὲν τοὺς ἐν τῇ παρωρείᾳ τεταγμένους τῶν πολεμίων ἀντέταττε πρὸς δὲ τοὺς εἰς τὸν αὐλῶνα καταβεβηκότας ἅθρους ἄγων ἐκ τῆς παρεμβολῆς ἐπὶ τέτταρας κοόρτις προσέβαλε τοῖς πεζοῖς τῶν ὑπεναντίων.
When he decided that what was necessary was taking place, against those of the enemy drawn up on the mountain slope he opposed [some troops], while against those who had descended into the valley, leading four cohorts in close order from the camp, he attacked the infantry of the enemy.
§11.33.2κατὰ δὲ τὸν καιρὸν τοῦτον καὶ Γάιος Λαίλιος, ἔχων τοὺς ἱππεῖς, προῆγε διὰ τῶν λόφων τῶν ἀπὸ τῆς παρεμβολῆς ἐπὶ τὸν αὐλῶνα κατατεινόντων, καὶ προσέβαλλε τοῖς τῶν Ἰβήρων ἱππεῦσι κατὰ νώτου, καὶ συνεῖχε τούτους ἐν τῇ πρὸς αὑτὸν μάχῃ.
At this same time, Gaius Laelius also, having the cavalry, advanced through the hills extending from the camp to the valley, and attacked the cavalry of the Iberians from behind, keeping them occupied in the fight against himself.
λοιπὸν οἱ μὲν πεζοὶ τῶν ὑπεναντίων, §11.33.3ἐρημωθέντες τῆς τῶν ἱππέων χρείας, οἷς πιστεύσαντες εἰς τὸν αὐλῶνα κατέβησαν, ἐπιεζοῦντο καὶ κατεβαροῦντο τῇ μάχῃ, οἱ δʼ ἱππεῖς τὸ παραπλήσιον ἔπασχον· §11.33.4ἀπειλημμένοι γὰρ ἐν στενῷ καὶ δυσχρηστούμενοι πλείους ὑφʼ αὑτῶν ἢ τῶν πολεμίων διεφθείροντο, τῶν μὲν ἰδίων πεζῶν ἐκ πλαγίου προσκειμένων αὐτοῖς, τῶν δὲ πολεμίων τῶν πεζῶν κατὰ πρόσωπον, τῶν δʼ ἱππέων κατὰ νώτου περιεστώτων.
Consequently, the infantry of the enemy, being deprived of the help of the cavalry, trusting in whom they had descended into the valley, were hard pressed and overwhelmed in the battle, while the cavalry suffered a similar fate; for, shut up in a narrow space and rendered helpless, they were destroyed in greater numbers by their own men than by the enemy, as their own infantry pressed upon them from the flank, the enemy's infantry in front, and the cavalry surrounding them from behind.
§11.33.5τοιαύτης δὲ γενομένης τῆς μάχης οἱ μὲν εἰς τὸν αὐλῶνα καταβάντες σχεδὸν ἅπαντες διεφθάρησαν, οἱ δʼ ἐν τῇ παρωρείᾳ διέφυγον.
Such being the nature of the battle, almost all of those who had descended into the valley were destroyed, while those on the mountain slope escaped.
§11.33.6οὗτοι δʼ ἦσαν εὔζωνοι, τρίτον δὲ μέρος τῆς ἁπάσης δυνάμεως, μεθʼ ὧν καὶ τὸν Ἀνδοβάλην συνέβη διασωθέντα φυγεῖν εἴς τι χωρίον ὀχυρόν. —
Πόπλιος δέ, §11.33.7συντέλειαν ἐπιτεθεικὼς τοῖς κατὰ τὴν Ἰβηρίαν ἔργοις, παρῆν εἰς τὸν Ταρράκωνα μετὰ μεγίστης χαρᾶς, κάλλιστον θρίαμβον καὶ καλλίστην νίκην τῇ πατρίδι κατάγων.
These were light-armed troops, a third part of the whole force, with whom Andobales also succeeded in escaping safely to a certain strong place. — As for Publius, having put the finishing touch to his operations in Iberia, he arrived at Tarraco with the greatest joy, bringing home a most glorious triumph and a most glorious victory for his country.
§11.33.8σπεύδων δὲ μὴ καθυστερεῖν τῆς ἐν τῇ Ῥώμῃ καταστάσεως τῶν ὑπάτων, πάντα τὰ κατὰ τὴν Ἰβηρίαν διατάξας καὶ παραδοὺς τὸ στρατόπεδον τοῖς περὶ τὸν Ἰούνιον καὶ Μάρκιον, αὐτὸς ἀπέπλευσε μετὰ Γαΐου καὶ τῶν ἄλλων φίλων εἰς τὴν Ῥώμην.
Being anxious not to be late for the election of the consuls in Rome, having arranged all affairs in Iberia and handed over the army to the colleagues of Junius and Marcius, he himself sailed for Rome with Gaius and his other friends.
