Tiberius Gracchus tried to bolster the citizen military by taking ager publicus from the wealthy and giving it to the landless poor. This was of course interpreted as trying to buildup a clientele.

提比略格拉古尝试支持公民军队把公地从富人那里夺走分发给没有土地的穷人这当然被理解为想要培养追随者。

For one thing, as I've adumbrated, the ager publicus tended to wind up not in the government's hands, but in the hands of the conquering generals and friends of the conquering generals.

我说过的一件事，公地可能最终不在政府的掌握中，而是在获胜的将军或者将军的朋友手中。
