„Right. <-,”Jiang Chensaidvery muchfrankly.
“没错。←,”江晨很坦率地说道。Hehas not concealed the NAC'sstrength, becausesimplydoes not havethatnecessity. Whensky overJia Cityflutters the NAC'sflag, thesepassing, peddler, mercenaryinSurvivor of thisplace, naturallythispowerfulandstrangenamebelt/bringtotrimWasted Earth.
他并没有掩饰nac的实力,因为根本没那个必要。等到嘉市上空飘扬起nac的旗帜,那些过往于此地的幸存者、行商、佣兵,自然会把这个强大而陌生的名字带向整片废土。Whenheis observingKong Qian, Kong Qianis also observinghim.
在他观察着孔谦的时候,孔谦也同样观察着他。„Ifelt the dangerfromyou.”
“我从你身上感觉到了危险。”„Can Iunderstandthistomypraise?”Turned upwardsone leg on the other, Jiang Chensaidwith the tonejokingly.
“我可以把这理解成对我的赞美吗?”翘起了二郎腿,江晨用开玩笑地语气说道。„Sure. OurmerchantsproliferatenorthbigJiangnan, canmakeusfeel that onWasted Earth the influence of fearis few. Northern United Districtisone, you are also one.”Kong Qiansaidwith a smile.
“当然可以。我们的商人遍布大江南北,在废土上能让我们感到害怕的势力很少。北方联统区算一个,你也算一个。”孔谦笑着说道。„Because ofmyarms?”
“因为我的枪炮?”„Because ofyourambition.”Kong Qianis staring at the Jiang Chen'seyesstubbornly.
“因为你的野心。”孔谦死死地盯着江晨的双眼。Thisbehavioris not very politeduring the friendly talk, buthedid thatas before. Hetriedto findto be ablefrom the Jiang Cheneyeto provething that hesuspected, however the fact was, hetrulyachieved, becauseJiang Chenhas not concealedownambition.
这种行为在友好会谈中很不礼貌,但他依旧这么做了。他试图从江晨眼中找到能够证明他猜想的东西,然而事实便是,他确实做到了,因为江晨根本就没有掩饰自己的野心。„Makes one think so?”Jiang Chensaid with a smile.
“何以见得?”江晨笑道。„From the layout of thisbase,”movedunderbottom, Kong Qianobserved the situation a decoration of room, „alsohadthisOffice. Generallyhas the franticdedicatedpersonregardingOrder, andneighbor the pursue of living qualitiestooneselfisveryhigh. Naturally, mostcanmanifestintuitively, isthatNAC'sname. New Asia Cooperation Organization? Goodname.”
“从这个基地的布局,”挪了下屁.股,孔谦环视了一眼房间的装潢,“还有这个办公室。一般对于秩序有着狂热执着的人,对自己和自己邻居的生活品质的追求都是很高的。当然,最能直观体现出来的,还是那个nac的名字。新亚洲合作组织?好名字。”„Feltrestlessly?”Regardingnitpicking of Kong Qian, Jiang Chenponderedasked the sentence.
“感到坐立不安了?”对于孔谦的品头论足,江晨只是玩味地问了句。„Right,”Kong Qiansaidfrankly,„ourmerchantsare considering an issue. Ifyoucapturedthisnailin the roadmiddlenail, whocanguarantee that youwon't advance toHang CityfromJia City the footagain?”
“没错,”孔谦直言不讳地说道,“我们的商人们在考虑一个问题。如果你们拔掉了这颗钉在路中间的钉子,有谁能保证你们不会将脚从嘉市再迈向杭市?”„Thereforeyourproposition?”Jiang Chenaskedwith a smile.
“所以你的提议?”江晨笑着问道。„LettingJia Citybecomesourbuffers. Did not haveon the roadtrade routeourmerchantsto develop the epicontinental sea, orviaTaihu Lake. Perhapswithoutthisnail, wewill unable to restto thinkcalmly and steadily.”Kong Qianlooks at the Jiang Chen'seyes, proposedearnestly.
“让嘉市成为我们的缓冲区。没有了路上商路我们的商人可以开发浅海,或者取道太湖。但如果没了这颗钉子,恐怕我们将睡不得安稳觉。”孔谦看着江晨的双眼,认真地提议道。„Thisis impossible.”Jiang Chendeclinesto sayunrestrained/no trace of politeness, „, even ifwedo not initiated an attack, Mutantswill still launch the attackin the wintertous. At the appointed time when theywill occupy the day. The difficultinsuranceflames of warnot to have burntTaipu River. Iwill not bet the inevitablewarwith the shortpeace.”
“这不可能。”江晨毫不客气地拒绝道,“即便我们不主动出击,变种人也会在冬季向我们发动攻击。届时他们将占据天时。难保战火不会烧过太浦河。我不会用短暂的和平去赌必然的战争。”„Wecaninvestto helpyouconstructalong the riverFortress.”Kong Qianstretched out a finger, saidearnestly, „500,000subcrystal, so long asyoupledged that does not marchto the west.”
“我们可以出资帮你们修建沿河堡垒。”孔谦伸出了一根指头,认真地说道,“五十万亚晶,只要你承诺不向西进军。”Regardinghisproposition. Jiang Chendoes not have the heart movement.
对于他的提议。江晨丝毫没有心动。„Thatmayreally beregrettable, wethroughdistributingWar Bondcollected2 millionsubcrystal.”
“那可真是遗憾,我们已经通过发行战争债券筹集到了两百万亚晶。”
The negotiationsreached the impass.
谈判陷入了僵局。Kong QianandJiang Chenare looking at each other, fell intosilent.孔谦与江晨对视着,陷入了沉默。
After the moment, hesmilesto open the mouthto saysuddenly.
片刻后,他突然笑了笑开口道。„Youknow why Mutantswill obtainsomanyarming?”
“你知道变种人为何会获得如此多的武装吗?”„Why?”Jiang Chendoes not careasks.
“为什么?”江晨不在意地问道。„According toinformation, onegroup of migrationsfromNorthern United District. The organization of namedTwilight Churchis providinglogisticsto supporttothem.” The Kong Qianfaint smilesaid.
“根据情报,有一伙迁徙自北方联统区。名为黄昏教会的组织在对他们提供后勤支持。”孔谦似笑非笑地说道。Thisinformationwas somewhat obsolete, previousTwilight Churchsends outSun Xiaorouassassinates the time, Jiang Chenhas skiddedconspiringaboutTwilight Churchthrough the specialwayfromhermouth, understandsthatmannamedBo Yuprovided the helptoMutants.
这个情报有些过时了,上次黄昏教会派出孙小柔行刺的时候,江晨就已经通过特殊的方式从她嘴中撬出来了关于黄昏教会的密谋,明白了那个叫博宇的男人对变种人提供了帮助。Actuallywantsto speculate that thisis not difficult, theseMutantsobviouslyindustrial capacitiesweak, actuallygraspsemphatically the machine gunon hand, evenis the artilleryand otherbigpiles of heavyfirepowerweapons. Said that isno onesupports, killsJiang Chennot to believe.
其实想要推测出这点并不难,那些变种人明明工业能力弱的可以,手头却握着重机枪,甚至是火炮等一大堆重火力武器。说是没人支持,打死江晨也不信。Howeverfrom the expression of Kong Qianthatfaint smile, Jiang Chenread outotherintenttaste.
不过从孔谦那似笑非笑的表情中,江晨却是读出了别的意味儿。„Are youthreateningme?”Looks athiseyes, Jiang Chenpondersasks.
“你在威胁我?”看着他的双眼,江晨玩味地问道。„Imayanythingnot say. Butsinceas the merchantorganization. Weretaintoanyhave the valueprojectto conduct the right of investment.”Kong Qianspread out the hand.
“我可什么都还没说。但既然身为商人组织。我们保留对任何有价值项目进行投资的权利。”孔谦摊开了手。Jiang Chensneers.江晨冷笑一声。Hehe, did thissayingspeak ofsuchobviouslyhas not daredto acknowledge?
呵呵,这话都说到这么明显了还不敢承认吗?„Youare playing with fire.”
“你在玩火。”„Iam seeking for the possibility that both sidescooperate.”Kong Qiandoes not make concessionsto investigate the correct path.
“我在寻找双方合作的可能。”孔谦毫不退让地纠正道。Jiang Chenstoodsuddenly.江晨突然站了起来。In the Kong Qianeyeflashes through an anxietyin a flash, butquickthenretrievedcalmly.孔谦眼中一瞬间闪过一丝紧张,但很快便重新找回了镇定。„Ifyouthink that canthroughfunding the Mutantsway, preventsoureliminationtoJia CityMutants, youcantrygreatly.”Jiang Chenarrived athisfront, is overlookinghiseyes, „, butItoldyouvery muchclearly, ifyoureallyextendedtoMutantsby the aid.”
“如果你们认为能够通过资助变种人的方式,阻止我们对嘉市变种人的肃清,那你们大可以去试试。”江晨走到了他的面前,俯视着他的双眼,“但我很明确地告诉你们,如果你们真对变种人伸以援手。”Bygasping for breath that thisimposing mannerpresses, Kong Qian cannot help but turned very quiet, is waiting forthisDictatorbelowa few words.
被这气势压的喘不过气,孔谦不由自主地屏住了呼吸,等待着这位独裁者的下一句话。
The Jiang Chengrinningchuckle, puts out those words that Kong Qianmostdoes not wantto hear.江晨咧嘴轻笑,吐出了孔谦最不想听到的那句话。„Thatis the war.”
“那就是战争。”
The atmosphere in Officesolidifiedinstantaneously. But the atmosphere of thissolidificationthenundera few wordswithJiang Chen'sdissipatedquickly.办公室内的气氛瞬间凝固了。但这凝固的气氛很快便随着江晨的下一句话消散了。„Naturally, Ibelieve that byyourforesights, will definitely not makethisstupidchoice.”
“当然,我相信以贵方的远见,肯定不会做出这种愚蠢的选择。”
The lookvacillated the moment, butKong Qiannodsfinallyhesitant.
眼神动摇了片刻,但孔谦最终还是犹豫地点了点头。„Verygood. Thenwelcome back tonegotiation table.” The Jiang Chensmilesaid,thensaton the sofa.
“很好。那么欢迎回到谈判桌。”江晨微笑说道,然后坐回了沙发上。
The pressurerelieves, Kong Qianthenbreathedfreshairslowly.
压力解除,孔谦这才缓缓呼吸了一口新鲜的空气。At this time, hesuddenlydiscovered,oneselfbackhad been soakedby the cold sweat
这时,他突然发现,自己的背后已经被冷汗浸透
The negotiationsendedin the peacefulatmospherefinally.
谈判最终在和平的氛围中结束了。Jiang Chendoes not planandhimdiscusses the detailaboutautumnmilitary action, but how mentionedafterhimrashlyseizedJia Cityon the trade routeissueto start the cooperation. Although the warhas not started. ButobviouslyJiang Chenhad regarded asownit's in the bag the Mutantsterritory.江晨不打算和他讨论关于秋季军事行动的细节,而是不由分说地和他谈起了占领嘉市后如何就商路问题展开合作。虽然战争还没开打。但显然江晨已经将变种人的领地视作了自己的囊中之物。Canborder onHang CityafterJiang ChenseizesJia City the sphere of influence, Kong Qianexpressed the anxietyas before. Butfacing the Jiang Chenhardstance, healsohas no alternative.
对于江晨占领嘉市后势力范围会与杭市接壤,孔谦依旧表示了忧虑。但面对江晨强硬的姿态,他却也无可奈何。After the trade routeandmidway of supply depotandgate housetrade route the establishmentand otherissues of reached an agreement, Kong Qianthenhastilysays goodbye.
就商路的贸易路线、中途补给站和哨所的设置等问题达成一致后,孔谦便仓促地告辞了。SeesKong Qianto leave, Han Junhuathenwalked.
见孔谦离开,韩君华便走了进来。„Whydoesn't deducthim?”
“为什么不把他扣下?”„Without the significance.”Jiang Chenhad a yawn, beckons with the hand saying that „looseregimesoannoying, even ifyoukilleditsleader, itmeets to youto chooseoneto come outagain. Orthisleaderis a mascotand so onexistence. Withheshakes hand, Iknow that heis not a specializedmerchant.”
“因为没有意义。”江晨打了个哈欠,摆摆手说道,“松散的政体就是如此的烦人,就算你杀了它的领导人,它开个会就能给你再选一个出来。或者说,这种领导人本身就是个吉祥物之类的存在。和他握手的时候,我就知道他不是个专业的商人。”
The specializedmerchantwill not handle the spear/gunto fish outoldJian (cocoon)to come, heisPresident. Ratherheisonegroup of merchantsadvances the spokesman in onstage.
专业的商人不会摸枪摸出老茧来,与其说他是个会长。倒不如说他是一群商人推到前台的代言人。„Aren't youas ifworried about the response in Hang Cityaspect?”Han Junhuaasked.
“你似乎并不担心杭市方面的反应?”韩君华问道。„Theyneed the market, butwehave the entireSuhang Provincebiggestmarket. Securitysubcrystal, they must make the choice, butIbelieve firmly that theywill finally choose the latter. Let alone. Ialsocomfortedtheirmoodregardingattitudemany of Sixth Blockmerchant. Evenby the NACcontroldefense, the propertywill not be receivedanylosesmostmerchantsdefinitelyto think.” Before Jiang Chenset outto arrive at the desk .
“他们需要市场,而我们拥有整个苏杭省最大的市场。安全还是亚晶,他们必须得做出选择,而我确信他们最终会选择后者。更何况。我对于第六街区商人的态度多少也安抚了他们的情绪。即便被nac接管防务,财产也不会受到任何损失大多数商人肯定会这么想。”江晨起身走到了办公桌前。At this time, outsideOfficeresounded the knock.
这时,办公室外响起了敲门声。„Come.”
“请进。”Whatcoming is Wang Qing, seeing onlyherfacial expressionis very serious.
进来的是王晴,只见她神情很严肃。„Marshal, Sixth Blockspreads the news. Recently the foreign-speciesactivity of suburban areahad the frequenttrend. Alsodisplayed the strongaggressivityincludingmanyMutated Cockroachandvariationmouseand otherforeign-species, generally, theseforeign-speciestypicallyactive offenseSurvivorwill not have the rumor saying that Wanghai Cityis fermentingsecondround of Foreign Species Tide.”
“元帅,第六街区传来消息。最近市郊区的异种活动出现频繁趋势。包括很多变异蟑螂、变异老鼠等异种也表现出了较强的攻击性,一般情况下,这些异种通常是不会主动攻击幸存者有谣言说,望海市正在酝酿第二轮异种潮。”„Foreign Species Tide?”Jiang Chenknits the browsslightly.
“异种潮?”江晨微微皱眉。Hehas not experiencedso-calledForeign Species Tide, butheard that gadgetis very fearful. Earliertime, thatlittle whileWorld Coalitionorganizationhas not launchedColony Ship, Wanghai Cityhad once eruptedForeign Species Tide. It is saidat that timeguardedformergovernment forces of scientific research institutenearCity Center, was expelledcitybythesewildforeign-species.
他没经历过所谓的异种潮,只是听说那玩意儿很可怕。早些年的时候,那会儿世界联合组织还没有发射殖民舰,望海市曾爆发过一次异种潮。据说当时驻守在市中心附近科研所的前政府军,都被那些狂暴的异种赶出了城市。It is saidat that timeSixth Block was also under a bigimpact, butrelies on the equipment that the World Coalitionorganizationleaves behindfortunately, finallyresisted the impact of Foreign Species Tide. Alsoatthat time. Sixth Blockestablished the rules of ten -memeber committees.
据说当时第六街区也受到了不小的冲击,但所幸凭借世界联合组织留下的装备,最终抵挡住了异种潮的冲击。也正是在那时。第六街区确立了十人委员会的统治。Atthis kind of time
偏偏在这种时候Wang Qingnods.王晴点了点头。„Makesthat sideWang Zhaowupay attention, his sideleavesCity Center is quite near. Itohim the switchjurisdiction of Sanctuaryfront door, will permit that heleads the groundresidentto removeintoSanctuarywhen necessary. Moreover, raises the Sanctuaryoil reserveto100fuel rods, thismattershouldbe you are responsible.” The Jiang Cheninjunctionsaid.
“让王兆武那边注意一下,他那边离市中心比较近。我会给他避难所大门的开关权限,许可他在必要时刻带领地面居民撤入避难所。另外,上调避难所能源储备到100只燃料棒,这事应该是你负责的。”江晨嘱咐道。„Understood.”Wang Qingnods.
“明白。”王晴点了点头。
The time span that eachSanctuaryopens is very big, no oneknows that whichyearotherWanghai CityseveralSanctuaryinopen. OncelostNo. 27 Sanctuary, thatmeans the NAC'sresearch capabilitybacks upincessantly a rank. Jiang Chenwill not certainly allowthismatterto happen, ifreallyoccurrenceForeign Species Tide, whathefirstneedsto guaranteeis the safety of scientist.
各个避难所开启的时间跨度都很大,谁也不知道望海市其它几个避难所在哪一年开启。一旦失去了27号避难所,那将意味着nac的科研能力倒退不止一个级别。江晨当然是不会允许这种事发生,如果真的发生异种潮,他首先需要确保的是科学家的生命安全。Regardless ofForeign Species Tidewhetherwill really happen, the second-handpreparationwill not always have the mistake.
无论异种潮是否真的会发生,二手准备总是不会有错的。„Moreover. Builds the temporaryrefugefacilityin the sewer. Prepares the temporarybunker, the bed, nutrition mixturealsohas the warming stove. Althoughweknow that thesethingswill not usefinally, buttoprovide against contingencies. Youunderpreparation.”
“另外。在下水道建立临时避难设施。准备好临时掩体,床铺,营养合剂还有暖炉。虽然我们都知道这些东西最终不会用上,但为了以防万一。你还是去准备下。”„Good.”Wang Qingnods, after seeingJiang Chendoes not havemultiple instructions, then the turning aroundhalf stepdeparts.
“好的。”王晴点头,见江晨没有更多指示后,便转身快步离去。Stopped the moment, Jiang ChenlookedtoHan Junhua.
停顿了片刻,江晨又看向了韩君华。„Over the next several days, possiblyisfor half a month, Iatsomeoutsidematters. YouandSun Jiaoare discussingunderprocessingon the line. UsuallyInot, when is also heractingduty, this. In the event ofForeign Species Tide, Ihurry backimmediately.”
“未来几天嗯,也可能是半个月,我在外地有些事。你和孙娇商量着处理下就行了。平时我不在的时候也是她代行职务,就这样吧。一旦发生异种潮,我会立刻赶回来。”
The Jiang Chenitselfthinks that Han Junhuawill askwhichhegoes, what is very accidental/surprised, shenods.江晨本以为韩君华会问他去哪,不过很意外的是,她只是点了点头。„Good. Howevermysuggestionis, ifhasForeign Species Tide, asMarshalyoudo not take riskto return to the risk area is quite good.”
“好的。不过我的建议是,如果发生异种潮,身为元帅的你还是不要冒险返回危险区域比较好。”„Iwill come back, becauseherehasto me very importantperson.”Jiang Chensaidearnestly.
“我会回来,因为这里有对我来说非常重要的人。”江晨认真地说道。„Iwill protectthemforyou.” The Han Junhuatonepromisesto saylightly.
“我会替你保护好她们。”韩君华的语气平淡地许诺道。„Thanks. Howeveralsoleavesis too anxious, perhaps the rumormerelyis the rumor.”
“谢谢。不过也别太紧张,没准谣言仅仅是谣言。”Jiang Chenpattedhershoulder, thenturns aroundto walktowardOffice.江晨拍了拍她的肩膀,然后转身向办公室门外走去。
The gateclosed.
门关上了。Is gazing at the door of close, long time, Han Junhuaput out a handto pinchownface.
注视着合上的门扉,良久后,韩君华伸手捏了捏自己的脸。Thensheput down the hand.
然后她放下了手。„Strange.”
“奇怪。”Sheused the untendertoneto think aloud the sentence, looked atout of the window.
她用毫无感情的语气自言自语了句,将目光投向了窗外。Out of the windowsunlightis beautiful, in the aircannot seetrace of cloud.
窗外阳光明媚,空中看不见一丝云彩。Howeverthissunshine, makesherhaveto plant not the realmisconceptionfaintly.
然而这种晴朗,却隐隐让她有种不真实的错觉。Thisfeeling, seems like the tranquility before storm.( To be continued.)
这种感觉,就好像是暴风雨前的宁静。(未完待续。)
