The Syracusans heard him, and voted
everything as he advised, and elected three generals, Hermocrates himself,
Heraclides, son of Lysimachus, and Sicanus, son of Execestes.
They also sent envoys to Corinth and Lacedaemon to procure a force of
allies to join them, and to induce the Lacedaemonians for their sakes openly
to address themselves in real earnest to the war against the Athenians, that
they might either have to leave Sicily or be less able to send

Meanwhile the Lacedaemonian, Gylippus, and
the ships from Corinth were now off Leucas, intent upon going with all haste
to the relief of Sicily.
The reports that reached them being of an alarming kind, and all agreeing
in the falsehood that Syracuse was already completely invested, Gylippus
abandoned all hope of Sicily, and wishing to save Italy, rapidly crossed the
Ionian Sea to Tarentum with the Corinthian, Pythen, two Laconian, and two
Corinthian vessels, leaving the Corinthians to follow him after manning, in

but Demosthenes stayed behind to organize the expedition, meaning to start
as soon as it was spring, and sent for troops to the allies, and meanwhile
got together money, ships, and heavy infantry at home.
The Athenians also sent twenty vessels round
Peloponnese to prevent any one crossing over to Sicily from Corinth or
Peloponnese.
For the Corinthians, filled with confidence by the favorable alteration in
Sicilian affairs which had been reported by the envoys upon their arrival,
and convinced that the fleet which they had before sent out had not been
without its use, were now preparing to despatch a force of heavy infantry in
merchant vessels to Sicily, while the Lacedaemonians did the like for

At the beginning of the next summer the
Chians were urging that the fleet should be sent off, being afraid that the
Athenians, from whom all these embassies were kept a secret, might find out
what was going on, and the Lacedaemonians at once sent three Spartans to
Corinth to haul the ships as quickly as possible across the Isthmus from the
other sea to that on the side of Athens, and to order them all to sail to
Chios, those which Agis was equipping for Lesbos not excepted.
The number of ships from the allied states was thirty-nine in all.
