Is away from the hazypride of the morning, Timothy Wimbledoncanseeflag that inindistinctly the topflutters.
隔着迷蒙的晨雾,提费科.温布顿能隐约看到城头上飘扬的旗帜。Heholds uptelescope, triesto identifyfamily emblem on flags. The sailing ship and imperial crown on designgreenbackgroundishis sisterwithout a doubt, Garcia Wimbledon. This is also topmostflags.
他举起瞭望镜,试图辨认旌旗上的家徽。绿色底子上的帆船和皇冠图案毫无疑问属于他的妹妹,嘉西亚.温布顿。这也是城头最多的旗帜。Whatsecondare many are whiteflags, poisonous snake of high tower and winding on whitebacking clothintower, thatare the symbols of BarrFamily. Hesneeredinbottom of heart, has hired oneselfQueen of Clear Water, was still actually hanging the flag of high towerdesign, simplywasimpudent and shameless. WhenIholdyourthistraitor, mustfeedyouto swallow down the flagmay not, SirBarrEarl. Hethinks.
第二多的是白色旌旗,白底布上的高塔和缠绕于塔上的毒蛇,那是巴尔亚家族的徽记。呵,他在心底冷笑,投靠了碧水女王,却仍挂着高塔图案的旗帜,简直是厚颜无耻。等我抓住你这个叛徒,非得把旗子喂你吞下去不可,巴尔亚伯爵大人。他心里想。Finally is the redbottomhigh towerlion, similarlyshamelessFamily. Timothyunemotionally, in the hearthas actually sentenced the death penaltyErin Stark, is the same with the Torman BalticAsia. Naturally, similarly must eatflag.
最后便是红底的高塔雄狮,同样无耻的席塔家族。提费科面无表情,心中却已经将艾林.席塔判了死刑,和托曼.巴尔亚一样。当然,同样也要吃旗子。„Knight Neiman, holds the Kingdom of Greycastleflag!”Timothyordered.
“奈门爵士,将灰堡王国的旗帜举起来!”提费科下令道。„As you bid, Your Majesty.”Knight Howlingshouldsay,afterwardprogressesto runtobehindarmy, „Kinghas the life, sets up the flag!”
“遵命,陛下。”凛风骑士应道,随后策马向身后的军队跑去,“国王有命,立旗!”NewKinghas turned head, saw that flagpoleswere held up, the grayflaglauncheswith the wind, the blackdesignappears the solemn silence, hugehigh tower and both sidesfall, mutually the overlappinglong spear/gun, thisis the King of Greycastlesymbol. Anytraitorwill giveto acknowledge guiltby holding the banner ofthis.
新国王回过头,看到一根根旗杆被举起,灰色的旗帜随风展开,黑色的图案显得庄严肃穆,巨大高塔和两侧倾倒、相互交叉的长枪,这才是灰堡之王的徽记。任何叛徒都将在这面旗帜下授首认罪。Receives the Garciaindependentmessage, headoptscounter measures--to transfereastern region and Kingdom Capitaltroopsimmediately, attacksEagle City. Althoughhisbottom of heartwas similar tohad raised the heaven-shakingmonstrous wavesat that time, butin the surfacestillmaintainedcalm, thisgaveto supporthisministerto heightenmanyconfidences.
收到嘉西亚独立的消息,他立刻采取了应对措施——调动东境和王都的人马,进攻雄鹰城。尽管当时他心底如同掀起了惊天巨浪,但表面上仍保持了镇定,这给支持他的大臣增强了不少信心。Convenesvassal and armyspent for nearlyonemonth, went toeastern regionto spend for oneweek, rushed tohereto be also coloredfor half a month, Timothyfinallywhenyesterday'sSunsetarrives inEagle City.

召集封臣和部队花去了近一个月的时间,前往东境花了一周,赶到这里又花了半个月,提费科终于在昨天太阳落山时抵达雄鹰城。幸好王都受邪魔之月影响不大,到南境的道路不会因为积雪而无法通行,反而地面因为低温冻得十分结实,运粮的马车队伍进行速度比那些自由民还快上一截。Histeamis very huge, mainlyhasownpersonal guardteam and Kingdom CapitalKnightgroupandeastern regionDukeFran.

According toreliable information, Garciaarmy , is less than3000people, moreovermostlyisPort of Clear Waterfreemen, usuallygrabs the weaponlessfarmer and merchantis good, upfrontfightimpossibleis the Knightmatch.
他的队伍十分庞大,主要有自己的亲卫队、王城骑士团和东境公爵弗兰.彻里特的部队。三批人马加起来有6000人之多,其中训练有素,装备精良的骑士,就多达1000名。据可靠情报,嘉西亚的部队只有不到3000人,而且大多是碧水港的自由民,平时劫掠手无寸铁的农民和商户还行,正面战斗不可能是骑士的对手。Minister of FinanceKnightGordooncehad raisedobjection, after hethinksMonths of Demonshad finished, each regionmustcultivate, at this timewill recruit the armyto have the adverse impact on the crop. ThereforeTimothyhas not requestedvassalto reassignserfto go to battle, butconvenesfreemen in territory, is responsible for the logisticsshippingbythem. As the matter stands, even iftheybattleinsouthern region, will not drop the spring plowing.财务大臣高德爵士曾提出过异议,他认为邪魔之月结束后,各地都要进行耕种,此时征召大军会对收成造成不利影响。因此提费科没有要求封臣抽调农奴出战,而是召集领地上的自由民,由他们负责后勤运送。这样一来,即使他们在南境作战,也不会落下春耕。No matter how, Timothy WimbledoncannotallowGarciato treatagaininsouthern region. Eagle Cityis not a firmcity, itspredecessoris a rural fair, is just located in the middle of peripheralcities. Afterwardalong with the development of businessgraduallyevolutionis the city, the timeis less thanhundredyears.

Iftoher the opportunity of panting for breath, after lettingherentiresouthern regionconformsthoroughly, oneselfagainwantto defeather is very difficult.
不管如何,提费科.温布顿绝不能允许嘉西亚再在南境待下去。雄鹰城并不是座坚城,它的前身是个集市,刚好位于周边城镇的中间。后来随着商贸的发展逐渐演变为城市,时间不到百年。加上历届领主为了宣传它的亲商形象,没有修建难以逾越的高墙。3000人的平民部队和两个伯爵的手下加起来也不算什么大军,越早一天做出反制措施,胜算就越大。若给她喘息之机,让她将整个南境彻底整合后,自己再想击败她就十分困难了。After a evening'srecuperation, histroopshave been satiated with food and wine, are ready. Suntransformsby the red-orangeinto the brighteyegolden colorgradually, the miststartsto dissipate, the drabcity wallalsohas appearedtrue body--in the new Kingeye, thatis notcity wallin the true sense, at bestistogether the soil bank.

经过一晚上的休整,他的人马已经吃饱喝足,蓄势待发。太阳逐渐由橘红色转变为亮眼的金色,雾气开始消散,土褐色的城墙也现出了真身——在新王眼里,那根本算不上真正意义上的城墙,充其量不过是一道土坡罢了。从坡底到坡顶都是条斜面,不用任何攻城梯,直接靠双手双脚就能爬上去。坡顶斜插着一圈一人多高的圆木围栏,能挡住流民和强盗,却挡不住全副武装的战士。
The person in topstoodsparse, tonot defend a cityto be readyobviouslylikely.
城头的人站得稀稀拉拉,显然不像是为守城做好了准备。„Your Majesty, was responsible forfollowing closely the southern gatecavalryto repay saying that observed the motion of large military force.”Knight Howlingruns backsidenewKing, curbs a horse the reportto say.
“陛下,负责盯梢南门的骑兵回报说,观察到了大队人马的行动。”凛风骑士跑回新国王身边,勒马汇报道。TimothygivesFranDuketelescope, relaxedtypical: „It looks like shewantsto escape.”提费科将瞭望镜交给弗兰公爵,语气轻松地道:“看起来她想要逃跑。”
The latterwaited and saw the little whilecarefully, nods, „cansuchquicklyset firm resolve, is the decisivechoice. Eagle Cityis not suitableto cling to tenaciously, sheplacesin the troops the city, will only catch the whole lot in a dragnetbyus.”Dukespoke ofhereto smile, „such that just likeyouexpectedin the operationalconferencelast night, shehas not thought that wewill comesuchquickly.”
后者仔细观望了会儿,点点头,“能这么快下定决心,也算是果断的选择。雄鹰城并不适合死守,她把人马放在城里,只会被我们一网打尽。”公爵说到这儿笑了起来,“正如您昨晚在作战会议中预料的那样,她没想到我们会来得这么快。”„The opportunity that wearrive inalsojust right,”Timothy said that „she, even to run away, does not have the meansin the night movement.”
“我们抵达的时机也恰到好处,”提费科说,“她即使想逃,也没办法在夜间行动。”„Yousaidright, night marchis the bigdeath anniversary. Her such words of doing, do not needusto attackreallyon own initiative, the teamdid not fightbursts. Butonce the troopsdispersein the night, the possibility of almostagainnot having gathered. Even ifthen, shereturns toPort of Clear Water, only has the dead end.”
“您说得没错,夜间行军是大忌。她真那样做的话,不用我们主动出击,队伍就不战自溃了。而人马一旦在夜晚走散,几乎再也没聚拢的可能。如此一来,就算她逃回碧水港,也只有死路一条。”„Thereforemydearyounger sistermustwait tillafter dawncan the directorarmyretreat.”Timothylooks atextremely easy to obtainEagle Citysatisfied, thoughtall that shemakeshave not surpassedoneselfexpectation.

After arriving ineastern region, makes up the remainingarmiesbyDukeagain, detoursto rush toEagle Cityfrom the kingdom, the cavalrycloses off the pathin advance, reduces the scoutto give the message the possibility.
“因此我亲爱的妹妹必须等到天亮后才能指挥军队撤退。”提费科满意地看着唾手可得的雄鹰城,心想她所做的一切并没有超过自己的预料。嘉西亚过于贪图雄鹰城的象征地位,而把部队驻扎在这里——占领历代南境守护的府邸的确更容易征服南方贵族的人心,可好处同样伴随着危机。他特意派出一支佯军慢吞吞地上路,自己先率领骑兵先行赶赴东境,不带步卒,所耗干粮一律由马车运输。抵达东境后再由公爵补足剩下的部队,从王国另一侧绕行赶往雄鹰城,骑兵先行封锁道路,减少探子传递消息的可能。Armymotionimpossiblegoes ahead, Garciashould2-3days ago obtain the moldicetwoto be possible the news, todaybefore dawnstartsto retreat, was considered ason the hastyaction. RetreatsfromEagle CitytoClear Spring Townneedsto walkday of time, howregardless oftwolegsalsorunfourlegs, so long as since the centralismthousandKnightovertakeherteam, the one close behind the otherchases down, her laughableallied armies will then naturally collapse.
大军行动不可能说走就走,嘉西亚应该是在两三天前才得到模凌两可的消息,今天拂晓就开始撤退,已算得上仓促之举。从雄鹰城撤退到清泉镇需要步行一天时间,两条腿无论如何也跑不过四条腿,自己只要集中起一千骑士追上她的队伍,衔尾追杀,她那可笑的联军自然便会崩溃。It is a pity that Garciastillmightescapefromownhand, ifshethrows down3000peopleno matter, a persondoubleridesto leave, livesis returning toPort of Clear Waternot to be the difficult matter.
遗憾的是,嘉西亚仍有可能从自己手中逃脱,如果她丢下3000人不管,一人双骑离开,活着回到碧水港并不算难事。Mustarrive atherdeneventually, canendthisfarcefinally, hethinks.
终究要到她的老巢去,才能最终结束这场闹剧,他想。„Your Majesty, the plan that thenarrangedaccording tobeforemovedseparately.”FranDukesaid,„in youareIattackedto enter a city, walkssouthern gateto pursueacross the city, detours? The words that detours, mustwalkmuchblock the way.”
“陛下,那么按之前定好的计划分头行动吧。”弗兰公爵说道,“您是等我攻进城内,穿过城市走南门追击,还是绕行?绕行的话,要多走一截路。”„Icircleto be quite goodfrom the southwest,”Timothythinks, „not convenientmovement of Knightinnarrowstreet, moreoverGarciaalsohas the possibilityto stop up the fulljunks the street, the hindrancearmypasses through. Detoursin the evening a double-hour, does not hinderfollowingchasing down.”
“我还是从西南边绕过去比较好,”提费科想了想,“骑士在狭窄的街道中不方便动作,而且嘉西亚也有可能将街道堵满杂物,阻碍部队通行。绕行就算晚上一个时辰,也不妨碍后续的追杀。”„Thenmyset off, Your Majesty.”
“那么我出发了,陛下。”„Be careful,” the Timothyremindersaid,„Garciathinkswill not leave behindanyarmyin the city, the trapestimateare many. Moreoverguards against the streetto be narrow, private residencenumerousplaces. So long asambushesa group ofpeople ready dead, canthreatenyoursafety.”
“当心点,”提费科提醒道,“嘉西亚想必不会在城里留下什么部队,陷阱估计不少。另外提防街道狭窄,民房众多的地方。只要埋伏一批死士,就能威胁到你的安全。”„Hahaha,”FranDukesaid with a smilefrank, „askedYour Majestyto feel relieved when Ifollowedyour fathercompeted in the combat, the head that personallycutsseveral hundreds, have not been injured.”Hebeckons with the handtopersonal guard, „called the number, attacked!”
“哈哈哈,”弗兰公爵爽朗地笑道,“请陛下放心,我跟随您父亲出征作战时,亲手斩下的头颅也有数百,还从来没有受过伤呢。”他向身边的亲卫摆摆手,“鸣号,出击!”

身后的军队涌动起来,数股人流从阵中走出,在数名骑士的带领下,向雄鹰城迈步前进——那是作为先驱部队的自由民,跟在他们身后的是披着盔甲的雇佣兵,也是这场攻城战的主力。而公爵带来的骑士已悉数集中到自己麾下。Whenstartsto impact the city wallto the large unit, TimothyleadsremainingKnightandsquiresets outto the Southwest.
待到大部队开始冲击城墙时,提费科率领剩下的骑士和扈从向西南方进发。
