„Right.”
“对。”Rumbanodslooking pensive: „Starsplendor that does not extinguish.”
伦巴若有所思地点点头:“不灭的星辉。”„What do youwantto say?”Grand DukeRownywrinkles the brow: „Toourbiggestthreats, isSoniaSerez?”
“你想说什么?”罗尼大公皱紧眉头:“对我们的最大威胁,是索尼娅・萨瑟雷?”ButRumbahas not paid attention tohim, black sandGrand Dukeis looking at the desktop , to continue to open the mouth:
但伦巴没有理会他,黑沙大公只是怔怔地望着桌面,继续开口:„Starsplendorregiment, theyare very young, veryimmature- evenhaswith the operational experience of domesticrebel army, butinwehave fought many battlesin front of the northernsoldier who andsweeps away all obstacles, theycollapse at the first blowsimply.”
“星辉军团,他们很年轻,很稚嫩-即使有与国内叛军的作战经验,但在我们身经百战、所向披靡的北地战士面前,他们简直不堪一击。”Grand DukeLeica the complexionchanges, is lost in thought.
莱科大公脸色一变,陷入沉思。„In the northernboundaryto the road of centrallead(er)on, ourfirst fightroutedthem,”Rumbadeeplyinspires, the expression becomes firmandrigid: „Nothingspecial, as usual: The light cavalryprobe, the shootersuppresses, the light infantrybites the main force, the heavy cavalrylaunches the decisiveimpact.”
“在北境到中央领的路上,我们初战就击溃了他们,”伦巴深吸一口气,表情变得刚硬而执着:“没什么特别的,像往常一样:轻骑试探,射手压制,轻步兵咬住主力,重骑兵发起决定性的冲击。”Rumbanodsslowly, the look is very complex:
伦巴缓缓点头,眼神却无比复杂:„A putting in an appearancetime, theirmain forceson the rout, others scattered in all directionsto escape, the heavy swordinfantry and heavyarmorexecutioners who evenfought a hard battlecould not use, easy.”
“一个照面的功夫,他们的主力就溃败了,其余人四散而逃,甚至连打硬仗的重剑步兵和重甲刀斧手都用不上,轻而易举。”„Likeallpastenemies,”Rumbaheld up the doublefist, the rightfiststruck the fisteye of left fistpowerfully, a live imageartisaninnailrock drill, „yougatheredbest the hardestsoldier, the thunderattackdestroytheystrongestpart, thenwaited for the remainingpeopleto escapeandbe defeated and dispersed, wailandsurrender, no longerbegan.”
“就像所有以往的敌人一样,”伦巴举起双拳,右拳有力地擂上左拳的拳眼,活像一个工匠在钉钎子,“你聚集最好最硬的战士,雷霆般打击摧毁他们最强的部分,然后等待剩下的人逃跑、溃散、哭嚎、投降,不复再起。”„Evendid not havenorth these privatearmy of boundarylocal areafeudal lordsanti-to punch- at leasttheyarenorth the person.”
“甚至还没有那些北境本地领主们的私军抗揍-至少他们是北地人。”Grand DukeRownyshows the strangefacial expression: „Therefore?”
罗尼大公露出奇怪的神情:“所以?”Henoticessensitively: Regardingthisissue, asexperiencing, Au Loekcultivates the Grand DukeorGrand DukeLuDidahas not opened the mouth, is onlyserious.
他敏感地注意到:对于这个问题,作为亲历者,无论是奥勒修大公还是特卢迪达大公都没有开口,只是神情严肃。Evenalsobringssome...... the respect?
甚至还带着一些……敬意?„Thereforethatis the starsplendorregiment,”Grand DukeLeicarepliedhim, onlylistens to the seniorGrand Dukelongto sigh: „At that time, no onewatchedthem.”
“所以那就是星辉军团,”莱科大公回答了他,只听老大公长长地叹息一声:“那时候,没有一个人把他们看在眼里。”
The baldabstentiondefenseGrand Dukeshakes the head: „Severaldayslater.”
秃头的戒守城大公摇摇头:“直到几天后。”Rownyfrownsslightly.
罗尼微微蹙眉。Rumbacontinued.
伦巴接过了话头。„Severaldayslater, they- thatcrowdshouldflee pell-mell, be utterly routedandscatters in all directionsto escape the child soldier, ghostcompletelybraves,”Grand DukeRumbasitson the chair, narrows the eye:
“几天后,他们-那群本该丢盔卸甲、溃不成军、四散而逃、亡魂尽冒的娃娃兵,”伦巴大公坐在椅子上,眯起眼睛:„Came back.”
“又回来了。”Rownyis startledslightly.
罗尼微微一怔。„Whenunderourquick attack the glaciercity, stoodinourfront.” The Rumbalightsay/way, as ifseesmore than tenyears ago thatin the distant place.
“在我们快攻下冰河城的时候,重新站在了我们的面前。”伦巴淡淡道,仿佛在远方重新看到十几年前的那一幕。„Although the populationwas short, buttheyactuallyorganized, become the organization system, has the battle formation, likejustrecruited,”Rumbacontinues saying that the tonemoves fast, the lookis indistinct: „Theirsuchpulls open the formation, attacks a city the previousquarter in ussoonwinning, attacksourrear areasdecisively.”
“虽然人数少了,但他们却是有组织的、成建制的、有阵势的,就像刚刚征召完一样,”伦巴继续道,语气飘忽,眼神缥缈:“他们就那样重新拉开阵型,在我们攻城即将胜利的前一刻,果断突袭我们的后方。”„Like the dying embers of afterburning.”
“就像复燃的死灰。”„No,”Grand DukeLeicacloses the eye, shakes the head: „It is not the dying embers, starsplendor that does not extinguish.”
“不,”莱科大公闭上眼睛,摇摇头:“不是死灰,是不灭的星辉。”
The suspicion of Grand DukeRownywas deeper.
罗尼大公的疑窦更深了。„Butwestillroutedthem,”Grand DukeLeicaopens eyesfiercely: „Once again.”
“但我们依然击溃了他们,”莱科大公猛地睁眼:“又一次。”Rumbalookstohim.
伦巴向他看去。„Right, once again.”
“对,又一次。”black sandGrand Dukenodsslowly: „Thistimewesend the pursuit the light cavalry, wantsto be ruthlessthem.”
黑沙大公缓缓点头:“不过这次我们把轻骑派去追击,想把他们赶尽杀绝。”„Lostabout10%light cavalries,”Leicasighs: „Iremember that...... is the light cavalry who Iassign.”
“损失了近10%的轻骑,”莱科叹了一口气:“我记得……是我调派的轻骑兵。”„Then?”Rumba'sexpressiondifferentiateYinqing, self-examinesnotanswers: „Again.”
“然后呢?”伦巴的表情莫辨阴晴,自问自答:“再一次。”Rownyraises up the eyebrow: Again?
罗尼竖起眉毛:再一次?„Again!”OnlyhearsRumba'svoicesuch as the metalhitto resounddecisively:
“再一次!”只听伦巴的声音如金属撞击般果断响起:„Flees and becomes separatedfourwildstarsplendorregiments, for several daysgathersanddraws under the war flag, launches the blockadecoast of the herdrivertousagain.”
“逃散四野的星辉军团,短短几天就在战旗下重新聚集、收拢,在牧河沿岸再次对我们发起阻击。”Grand DukeRownychanges colorfinally.
罗尼大公终于变色。„Howcan?”Grand DukeQiYuanchengsurprisedsaid/tunnel: „How do theyrally the routed troop? Morale? The suppliesand can the logisticsfollow?”
“怎么会?”祈远城大公吃惊地道:“他们是怎么重整溃兵的?士气呢?补给和后勤跟得上吗?”Rumbashakes the head.
伦巴摇了摇头。„Thisgamerepeatedseveraltimes,”Rumba'stoneis somewhat exhausted: „But regardless of ourmanytimeroutsthem, so long ascompletelydoes not annihilate, the remainder that theyflee and become separated can always the miraclesamedraw to return to own unit- does not knowtheyinthatdamnhowin the battlefieldto handle the logistics, butat least the look of thatgroup of child soldiers is very decisive- thenorattacks a cityinus, orseizes territory, or the restingsupplies, or the awkwardtime of rotationarmy, is haunted by the ghostappearsin the bodysideorbehind, coldlystrikes.”
“这种游戏重复了好几次,”伦巴的语气有些疲惫:“但无论我们多少次击溃他们,只要不彻底歼灭,他们逃散的余部总能奇迹一样重新收拢归建-也不知道他们在那见鬼的战场上如何搞定后勤,可至少那群娃娃兵的眼神都很果断-然后在我们或攻城、或略地、或休憩补给、或轮换部队的尴尬时刻,阴魂不散地出现在身侧或者背后,冷冷一击。”Grand DukeLeicacomplexiononegloomy: „Starsplendor that does not extinguish- thisisourpeopletotheirtitle.”
莱科大公脸色一黯:“不灭的星辉-这就是我们的人给他们的称号。”Rumbalightsnort/hum.
伦巴轻哼一声。„Whatmakesus unable to think through, a youngordinaryregiment, after whyexperiencedsuchdisastrous defeat and collapseeach time, but can also timesorganizewithout any hindrances?”black sandGrand Dukeinquiredin a soft voice.
“让我们所有人都想不通的是,一支如此年轻的普通军团,为什么每次经历了那样的惨败和崩溃之后,还能一次次毫无阻碍地重新组织起来?”黑沙大公轻声询问道。No onereplied.
没有人回答。Au Loekcultivates the Grand Duketo wrinkle the brow, looksto others.
奥勒修大公皱紧眉头,看向其他人。„Starsplendorwar-godis a goodleader, hetrainsverywelloneselfregiment, thisishishonor,”Au Loekcultivates the affirmation and firmsaid/tunnel: „A greatopponent, that person, althoughdies, itssoullasts forever.”
“星辉战神是位好领袖,他把自己的军团训练得很好,这是属于他的荣誉,”奥勒修肯定而坚决地道:“一位伟大的对手,其人虽死,其魂永存。”Rumba'slaughterinsertedinopportunely.
伦巴的笑声不合时宜地插了进来。„Real? BecauseJohnbrightstaris a greatstrategist, can hisciviliansoldierhand/subordinateturn into the qualityexcellentwarrior?”Rumbasneerslightly, the toneis bad: „OurkingsandGrand Duke, the aristocrat, the leadersand even are the soldiers, the waste?”
“真的吗?因为约翰・璨星是个伟大的军事家,他手下的平民士兵就都能变成素质过人的勇士?”伦巴淡淡地冷笑,语气不善:“那我们的国王、大公,贵族,领军者们乃至战士们,就都是废物吗?”
The Grand Dukestogetherare coldly uneven the complexionone.
大公们齐齐脸色一寒。„Carefulword usage, Rumba.”Leicanarrows the eye.
“小心用词,伦巴。”莱科眯起眼睛。ButRumbahas not paid attention tothem.
但伦巴没有理会他们。„Whycanlike this?”
“为什么会这样?”„Is isolated and cuts off from help, is hardto resist with all one's strengthourarmies, unexpectedlyis‚does not extinguish’ the army?”Rumbacomplexionis firm and resolute: „Wehave doubts, wefelt strange,weare surprised, because by the clever in fightingfamousnorthernperson, is hardto imaginethissituation.”
“一支孤立无援,难以力敌我们的部队,居然是一支‘不灭’的部队?”伦巴脸色坚毅:“我们疑惑,我们奇怪,我们惊讶,因为就连以善战出名的北地人,都难以想象这种情况。”OtherGrand Dukesare lost in thought.
其他大公们纷纷陷入沉思。„Yes, the body and spirit of northernpersonisinhumanis most strong, the spirit is also most frantic, under the same condition, no onecanbeatusin the frontal battlefield! Evenmost fearfulpowerful enemy!”Rumbaraised the head, firmsaid/tunnel.
“是的,北地人的体魄是人类之中最强健的,精神也是最狂热的,同等条件下,没人能在正面战场上击败我们!即使是最可怕的强敌!”伦巴抬起头,坚定地道。Buthegets hold of the fist, the toneimmediately a revolution:
但他握紧拳头,语气随即一转:„Butevenwe, the westernlandfirstmilitary power......”
“但就算是我们,西陆的第一军事强国……”„Afterwinsonetime, the commander in chief must spendonday to pitch campto take inventory, sendshistrusted subordinatearistocratandownOfficerhealth/guard, ortakes the swordlanceaxe, eithergrasps the aristocratwritten order, draws to comforttheseis excitedly franticsoftlykillsto get angryandsnatch the hand, to pull the loosen the pants, scattered in all directionsin the battlefieldperipheral, eitherventedor the soldiers of pursuit.”
“在一次大胜过后,主帅也要花上一天的时间扎营清点,派遣他的亲信贵族和亲卫军官,或者拿着刀剑矛斧,或者手持贵族手令,去收拢安抚那些兴奋狂热得杀红了眼、抢软了手、扯松了裤子,四散于战场周边,或者发泄或者追击的战士们。”„A day a nightcanrally the army, next daysets outagain, evennormalefficiency.”
“一天一夜里能把部队重整完毕,次日再度进发,就算是正常的效率了。”Grand DukeLeicashakes the head.
莱科大公摇了摇头。„Thatis not strange,”seniorGrand Dukesaidslowly: „Our for several hundredyearsgo to war.”
“那不奇怪,”老大公缓缓道:“我们几百年来都是这么打仗的。”Rumbaturns the headfiercely, the visiongoes to the seniorGrand Dukelike the blade edge.
伦巴猛地转头,目光如刀锋般投向老大公。
The seniorGrand Dukewas punctured the leaningheadbyhimslightly.
老大公被他刺得微微侧头。„Howeverwelose a battle?”Rumbacoldly the opens the mouth: „Even if Exterperson- flees and becomes separatedafter the rout of flurriedandfrightenedspreadextremely, does not experienceseveralweeks and even the moon/month, weare impossibleto rallyto establish, arrange the logistics, ineveryonehelplesstime, gathersagain the routedarmy!”
“而我们打败仗的时候呢?”伦巴冷冷开口:“哪怕是埃克斯特人-在慌乱不堪、恐惧蔓延的溃败后逃散,不经历几周乃至个把月的时间,我们根本不可能重整好编制,安排好后勤,在所有人都不知所措的时刻,把被击溃的部队再聚起来!”„Thislikenot going hunting, so long asyoublow a whistling, the loyalhunting dog that thendisperseswill run.”
“这可不像打猎,你只要吹一声口哨,然后走散的忠心猎犬就会跑回来。”„As forcollectsrapidly, short-timerallying, mixes the manpower, arranging the logistics, the organizationto form an army, does the reconstitutionstrength, marchagain?”
“至于迅速归拢,短时重整,调配人手,安排后勤,组织成军,重编战力,再度进军?”„Saidwithout the slightest exaggeration,”Rumbaenclasps the both arms, looks the Grand Duke who fourlooksvary, coldlysnort/humsaid: „In the entireExterkingdom, only then the naked swordguard and glacierlookoutcanachieve- Isuspectedbodyguard and standing army that manyGrand Dukescannotachievethis point.”
“毫不夸张地说,”伦巴抱紧双臂,看着四位神色各异的大公,冷冷哼道:“在整个埃克斯特王国,就只有白刃卫队和冰川哨望能达成-我怀疑许多大公的亲卫队和常备军都不能做到这一点。”HelookstoRogny.
他看向罗尼。„Kun, yourQiYuanchenghas seenmanybloodin the goldencorridor and bigwilderness, calculates the military forceto be outstandinginExter,”Rumbapouts: „Can you?”
“库里坤,你们祈远城在黄金走廊和大荒漠里都见过不少血,在埃克斯特也算军力出众,”伦巴努了努嘴:“你们能吗?”Rownyhas not spoken, is only the expressionis dignified.
罗尼没有说话,只是表情凝重。OtherGrand Dukeshave not replied.
其他大公们也没有答话。Rumbanarrows the eye: „Why have youthought?”
伦巴眯起眼睛:“你们有想过为什么吗?”
After severalseconds, Au Loekcultivatessighsslightly.
几秒后,奥勒修微微叹息。„Theyononeselfland,”thisWeylandget the Grand Duketo shake the head: „Hadcompletelyadvantage- the support of nativetoterrainfamiliar......”
“他们在自己的土地上,”这位威兰领大公摇摇头:“占尽了优势-无论是本地人的支持还是对地形的熟悉……”Buthewas brokenbyRumbaquicklyimmodestly.
但他很快被伦巴不客气地打断了。„Goes tohis mother'sownland!”Onlylistens toblack sandGrand Duke the ruthlesssound said:
“去他娘的自己的土地!”只听黑沙大公狠声道:„Thatgroup of child soldiersare the starsplendorwar-godandwestrecruitmostlyfrom the stars, less thanoneyear of newDing, in comparison, asnorthwe of person, but alsoadapts tonorth the stars the boundaryto the climateterrain of centrallead(er).”
“那群娃娃兵大都是星辉战神从星辰南方和西部征召来,不到一年的新丁,相比之下,身为北地人的我们,还更适应星辰北境到中央领的气候地形。”LuTildalightsnort/humsaid:
特卢迪达轻哼道:„Spoke frankly.”
“直说吧。”
The restorationtowerGrand Duketurns upwards the corners of the mouth: „What are yousuggesting?”
再造塔大公翘起嘴角:“你在暗示些什么?”Rumba'slookgougesimmediatelytohim.
伦巴的眼神顿时剜向他。„Suggestion?”
“暗示?”„Iglanced throughin the past sansibai years, to the combat example of stars,”black sandGrand Dukecoldsound said: „In the past, at least inhundredyears ago thatwar, the starspersonwas also likeus, after being routed, does not spendon the moon/monthon the accumulation, from the logisticsabilityto the speed of reconstitution, is equally matchedwithus.”
“我翻阅了过去三四百年里,对星辰的战例,”黑沙大公寒声道:“过去,至少在百年前的那场大战里,星辰人也跟我们一样,被击溃后不花上个把月就聚集不起来,从后勤能力到重编的速度,都跟我们不相上下。”„Whyto the starsplendorwar-god, hecantrain the starsplendorregiment?”
“为什么到了星辉战神,他就能训练出星辉军团呢?”FourGrand Dukesimultaneous/uniformsimultaneous/uniformknit the brows.
四位大公齐齐皱眉。„Spoke frankly the key point, clipped on the history lesson,”LuTildadid not expresseveryone'saspirationpatiently: „Weare not the fools.”
“直说重点,别上历史课,”特卢迪达不耐烦地道出所有人的心声:“我们都不是笨蛋。”Rumbalookonebunch.
伦巴眼神一束。No, youare not the fools.
不,你们不是笨蛋。Hiscomplexiononecold: Compared withfoolmore fearful- thinks oneself clever.
他脸色一寒:是比笨蛋更可怕的-自作聪明。
After onesecond .
一秒后。„Which?”Rumbasaidin a soft voice.
“哪一位?”伦巴轻声道。FourGrand Dukesare startledslightly.
四位大公微微一怔。„Whatwhich?”LuDidahas doubtsasked.
“什么哪一位?”特卢迪达疑惑地问。Rumbabodyleans forward, undershining of brazier, the whole personpresses the square tablelike the hill, oppressionlooks atfourGrand Dukes.
伦巴身体前倾,在火盆的照耀下,整个人如小山般压上方桌,压迫式地看着四位大公。„Imean......”
“我是说……”Henarrows the eye: „Yourseveral, tohistorically the impression of whichstarsking, most profound?”
他眯起眼睛:“你们几个,对历史上哪一位星辰国王的印象,最为深刻?”FourGrand Dukes22squinted, exchangedseveralpuzzledlooks.
四位大公两两相觑,交换了几个不解的眼神。Starsking?
星辰国王?Impression?
印象?„The kings of stars...... more than 30......”
“星辰的国王们啊……三十多位呢……”Rumbahappens to obtain somebody's favoroneselfchairback, extends the right hand, slowlystartsto count:
伦巴重新靠上自己的椅背,伸出右手,慢慢地开始数数:„Isfights single-handedly for tenyears, in the hopeless situationswore the duplicate/restorescountry's of ‚revivalking’Thomonde I?”
“是孤军奋战十年,于绝境中立誓复国的‘复兴王’托蒙德一世?”„Isopens up territoryto develop the earth, is defendingblackeye that Wangchengperipheraleven/includingChangfightswithNoon I‚’John I?”

“哦,不然,就是统治时间比努恩还长,国家稳固,除了最后一年之外没出什么乱子的‘常治之王’艾迪二世?虽然他的下场不怎么好。”Rumbaspoke, whileis observing the expressions of severalGrand Dukes.
伦巴一边说话,一边观察着几位大公的表情。Buthisanythinghad not seen that- severalGrand Dukeeven/includingMianbupetty actionsunderpresent.
但他什么都没看到-几位大公连面部的小动作都欠奉。Rumbatauntedalsosneers: „No? Is impossible?”
伦巴嘲讽也似地冷笑一声:“没有?不可能吧?”
After severalseconds, hesighsdeprecatingly.
几秒后,他不以为意地叹了一口气。„Good,”Rumbanarrows the eye: „Myimpressiondeepeststarsking......”
“好吧,”伦巴眯起眼睛:“我印象最深的星辰国王……”SeveralGrand Dukelooksnarrow the eyes.
几位大公眼神微眯。Onlylistens toRumbahislightsaid/tunnel: „MinDithinksbrightstarthird.”
只听伦巴他淡淡地道:“闵迪思・璨星三世。”LuDidaGrand Dukehearsword, the expressionmoves slightly: „Isthat......”

伦巴缓缓点头。„Right,”black sandGrand Dukeopens the mouthlightly, ineye the mood of fullarrange/clothcomplexdifficultsolution: „150years ago, thatMinDi who goes through the fourthmainlandwarthinks ofthird.”
“对,”黑沙大公淡淡地开口,眼中满布复杂难解的情绪:“一百五十年前,经历第四次大陆战争的那位闵迪思三世。”Hesaidin a soft voice:

“那位‘贤君’。”
