达契亚是古代罗马帝国对今 罗马尼亚地区的称呼。“达契亚人”这部影片反映的就是罗马帝国皇帝图拉真亲征达契亚、达契亚人奋起反抗的故事。 影片开始先描写了达契亚的公主梅达与男友在乡间打猎嬉戏的场景,以及达契亚的壮丽河山。然后表现罗马帝国方面为进攻达契亚而积极备战的场景,其中有这样一幕,给人印象深刻:罗马军中战功彪炳的统帅弗斯库斯,在罗马士兵的欢呼期待下,胸有成竹地接过一柄标枪,正在瞄准靶心准备投出时,几十步开外的靶子忽然变得模糊起来(这是个重要细节)。弗斯库斯踌躇着,正在这时,远方响起嘹亮的军号声,弗斯库斯趁机收枪查看,原来是其好友、高大英俊的青年统帅塞维卢斯奉命前来助其作战。(塞维卢斯由法国演员Pierre Brice饰演) 大喜过望的弗斯库斯与塞维卢斯亲切拥抱,并将标枪交与好友。塞维卢斯一枪命中靶心,罗马军团齐声欢呼! 接下来是弗斯库斯、塞维卢斯与罗马皇帝图拉真及其智囊人物商议军情。这位智囊人物正是塞维卢斯的父亲。就在此次商议之后,塞维卢斯的父亲在夜间遭达契亚人袭击,被标枪击中后心并被抢去胸前符牌。塞维卢斯赶到时,濒死的父亲抓起一把泥土放在自己胸口上,然后微笑了一下,就此气绝。 袭杀得手的达契亚勇士逃回国后,将符牌呈与达契亚国王德切巴尔,德切巴尔看到符牌就是一惊:“你杀死了罗马人中唯一不该被杀的人。” 罗马终于得到了开战的借口。战争开始了! 罗马军团重兵集结,围攻达契亚军事重镇。这里的战争场面,对于70年代的国人来说,无疑是极其震撼的!最终罗马人在付出沉重代价后,塞维卢斯奋勇直前,攻城先登,达契亚城防终于被撕开缺口。坐镇中军的弗斯库斯及时调兵发起总攻,攻城战已没有任何悬念。但达契亚人没有屈服,于是血腥惨烈的肉搏巷战开始了... 入夜,巷战依然在继续... 最终,达契亚守军大部战死,罗马人彻底控制了城池,并擒获了此战达契亚方面的最高统帅。这位勇士要求给他一口剑,并将弗斯库斯给的这口剑深深地刺入自己的腹中。濒死之际,他抓起一把泥土放在自己胸口上,微笑气绝。塞维卢斯困惑的神情 ... 首战之后,罗马帝国与达契亚双方进行了外交努力,塞维卢斯作为罗马帝国的使者被派往达契亚,与德切巴尔第一次会面。塞维卢斯好奇地询问为何达契亚统帅死前会抓一把泥土放在胸口,德切巴尔借此话题试图要点醒塞维卢斯什么,但塞维卢斯不为所动。 外交努力终以德切巴尔不肯屈服而告破产。双方重新开战。 达契亚方面,德切巴尔制定了伏击之策,但按照达契亚的古老传统,生死战之前要以全国最优秀的男子为牺牲,祭祀神明。公主梅达的男友被选中,慷慨赴死。梅达抗争无效,遂离开父王,独自隐居在一座巨大的乡间茅舍之中。 罗马集结骑兵主力,以弗斯库斯、塞维卢斯为正副统帅,进击达契亚腹地。行军途中,塞维卢斯所信重的好友、优秀将领玛尔库斯敏锐地察觉到地形十分凶险,向两位统帅提出暂缓行军、另择他路的建议。塞维卢斯表示支持。但雄心勃勃、目空一切的弗斯库斯却不同意;同时,他的视力再度出现异常,无法看清玛尔库斯所说的伏军的蛛丝马迹。刚愎自用的弗斯库斯要求全军加速通过。塞维卢斯和玛尔库斯所帅前军在行军过程中,突遭德切巴尔所帅主力精锐的袭击,罗马军团地形严重不利,英雄无用武之地,被重创并击溃。弗斯库斯见前军溃败,即勒兵而返。玛尔库斯与塞维卢斯在作战中相互失散,玛尔库斯突出重围逃回大本营。    弗斯库斯大发雷霆,痛斥被击溃的第五军团将士将罗马军队的光荣传统丧失殆尽,并实施残酷的“十一制”处罚 --- 列队的罗马败军将士中,每十人中的第一人处斩。弗斯库斯坚持以玛尔库斯的位置起算,实际就是想杀人灭口,以掩盖自己的指挥失误。玛尔库斯苦笑一下,平静地将头颅放在处斩用的树墩上... 塞维卢斯突围后,在渡过一条乡间小溪时,被隐居中的梅达一支利箭射中后背。待他醒来时,发现梅达正在身旁看护着自己... 塞维卢斯养伤期间,两人互生爱慕之情。就在这一天,远方隐约传来罗马军团的军号和战鼓声,激动无已的塞维卢斯不顾自己伤病虚弱的身体,丧魂落魄地爬上高处远眺... 见此情景,梅达痛苦地意识到两人终不相属,于是趁塞维卢斯睡熟之际,返回王宫,带回了达契亚士兵。塞维卢斯无意反抗,顺从地跟随达契亚人去见德切巴尔。临行,塞维卢斯与梅达深情对望。塞维卢斯去后,梅达一把火点燃了茅舍,自己也走进了熊熊烈焰之中... 德切巴尔告诉塞维卢斯其特殊身世 --- 塞维卢斯的父亲原本就是达契亚人,然后放回了塞维卢斯。塞维卢斯回到罗马军团大本营,径直来到弗斯库斯行帐。正与艳妇行欢的弗斯库斯吃了一惊,赶快示意妇人离开。面对塞维卢斯“为何杀死玛尔库斯”的愤怒质问,弗斯库斯拉拢劝说塞维卢斯摆脱掉图拉真和元老院,拥兵自立,共享权力和财富。塞维卢斯不为所动,愤怒离去。 弗斯库斯尾随而来,扔给塞维卢斯一柄重剑,两人开始决斗。塞维卢斯虽伤病未痊,仍失手杀死了弗斯库斯。这时罗马皇帝图拉真帅部众现身,揭露了弗斯库斯图谋篡位的勃勃野心,赦免了塞维卢斯杀死弗斯库斯之责,并提拔塞维卢斯为东征达契亚的罗马军队新统帅。 塞维卢斯被迫帅部与德切巴尔主力进行决战。决战以双方主帅阵前决斗开始。塞维卢斯在与德切巴尔的决斗中,抢回第五军团的军杖,部分挽回了罗马军队的荣耀损失。接下来塞维卢斯被德切巴尔一剑挥中胸腹部。弥留之际,塞维卢斯在德切巴尔的怀中说:“这是我能为达契亚做的唯一一件事。” 德切巴尔将一把泥土放在塞维卢斯的手中,然后再将他的手放在他的胸膛上...

But Toma has a far graver—and potentially deadly—secret to conceal.
