„Dukeyour excellency, frontwasFrostwind Town.”
“公爵阁下,前面就是风霜镇了。”
A Knightreportsaid.
一名骑士汇报道。Marvin Parkerholds uptelescope, is observingsouthwestintersection point of trendplace in townsituated inEternal WinterandWolf Heart, all aroundis the hillside, standsinanyhigh spot, canlook at a puritysituation of town. Because the topographyis hard to defend and easy to attack, therefore for hundredyearsFrostwind Townhas not expandedis a castle.马维恩.派克举起瞭望镜,观察着镇中的动向此地位于永冬与狼心的西南交界处,四周都是山坡,站在任何一个高点,都能将镇子的情况看个一清二楚。由于地势易攻难守,因此百年来风霜镇也没有扩建为城堡。Suchsmall townhasmanyon the border lines of twokingdoms, notanyspecial place, ifMarvinwill usually not look atitstwo, butcurrently, ithad the uniquesignificance.
这样的小镇在两个王国的边境线上有不少,并没有什么特别之处,若是平时马维恩根本不会多瞧它两眼,但现在,它却有了独特的意义。„Did the person who goesto inquire the informationhave the news?”
“前去打探情报的人有消息了没?”„Asked, has only spentseveralsilver royal, thesetownspeoplesallsaid.” The Knightfavoritesay/way, „the squad of heretrulyGreycastlepersonis moving, the quantityare not many, 40-50people, will almost separate the time periodto presentonetime.”
“问到了,只花了几枚银狼,那些镇民就全说出来了。”骑士得意道,“这里确实有一支灰堡人的小队在活动,数量不多,也就四五十人,差不多隔阵子就会出现一次。”„Why aren't theystationedhere?”
“为何他们不驻扎在这里?”„After the borderismountain roads, moreoverheard that the commonwild wolfappears and disappears, the words that nobodyescorts, theserefugeesonlyfeared that cannot pass.”
“穿过边境之后都是山路,而且听说常有野狼出没,没人护送的话,那些难民只怕一个都过不去。”Marvinis at heart confidentimmediately.马维恩心里顿时有了底。
The proliferation of red mistdoes not take the borderas the standard, the reversed imageis the semicircle that expandsunceasingly, thismakesred mist of mostdistant placecrossareaWolf HeartKingdom Capital, butrecentstillinEternal Winter. Compared withgoing to the neighboring country, makeshimfeel at easeat the kingdominteriorcombatobviously.红雾的扩散并不是以边境为准,倒像是一个不断扩大的半圆,这使得最远处的红雾已经越过狼心王城一带,而最近的仍在永冬境内。比起远赴邻国,显然在王国内部作战更让他心安。ButFrostwind Townnot justmeetsthisrequest, becausealso the positionis remote, causingtheseto be stuckto faint the fellow of brainslittleto enterWolf Heartby the Greycastlepersonfromhere. Compared withseveraltransportationconvenientbigcities, Frostwind Townalmostsameis not noticeablewith the mosquitoleg.
而风霜镇不单满足这个要求,还因为位置偏僻,导致那些被灰堡人糊晕了头脑的家伙很少会从这里进入狼心。比起几座交通便捷的大城,风霜镇几乎就和蚊子腿一样不引人注目。Marvinwantsispersonare exactly few.马维恩要的恰恰就是人少。
The peoplelittlemean that Greycastleextremelywill not pay attention tothisplace, but the scoutinquired the information that has verifiedthis pointwithout doubt.
人少意味着灰堡也不会太过注意此地,而探子打听到的情报无疑印证了这一点。Just like the seniorscholar said that the bone that theseare difficultto gnawhasDevilto cope, hemustdo, thenruthlesslybitesonein the opposite partyfrailplace. So long asthismatterpassed on, regardless of the victoryweregreatlyissmall, canmake the opposite partybe cautious about harming evildoers lest the innocent be hurt.
正如老学者所说的一样,那些难啃的骨头自有魔鬼去对付,他要做的,便是在对方的脆弱之处狠狠咬上一口。这种事情只要传去了,无论战果是大是小,都能让对方投鼠忌器。Naturally, the scheme of seniorscholar is not only so, behindalsohas a more ruthlessspicymove of techniqueto wait for the Greycastleperson, ifcancomesuccessfullysuch2-3times, hebelieves that the plunderingmotion of opposite partywill certainlybe greatly frustrated, Vault of Heaven Lordyour excellencyalsowill perhaps have a high opinion to him.
当然,老学者的计谋不仅仅是如此,后面还有更狠辣的招术在等着灰堡人,倘若能成功来上那么两三次,他相信对方的掠夺行动必将大受挫折,天穹之主阁下或许也会对他更为倚重。„Goes back, thisandeverybodychattedwell.”
“回去吧,该和大家好好谈谈了。”

……
The flower the distancehurried back torecentcitiesin the morning, Marvinentered the originalfeudal lordmansionhigh-spirited. Herewas a legal proceedingBaron, butsome time agoactuallyapproachedred mist and Devilhearsayfrightenedflees to the wilderness, saved the times of hismanynegotiationactually.
花上半天路程赶回最近的城镇,马维恩意气风发地走进了原领主的府邸。这里原本属于一名籍籍无名的男爵,但不久前却被逼近的红雾和魔鬼传闻吓得落荒而逃,倒是省下他不少交涉的功夫。Thislandscurrentlyindeedwere nothim, after allhisreal power is only restricted in the northern regionfourcitiestemporarily, butMarvin believes that the expansion of ParkerFamilycannotin light of thistill.
这片土地目前诚然还不属于他,毕竟他的实权暂时只限于北境四城,不过马维恩相信,派克家族的扩张绝不会就此为止。Quick, onegroup of noble that heconvenesare then assemble, was waiting forheopens the mouth.
很快,他召集起来的一帮贵族便齐聚一堂,等待着他开口。Dukelooks all around, takes down the facial features and facial expression of everyone silently. In the roomaltogethersits45job applicant, theymajority are Knight, there aresuchseveralbarons, butstatushighestisoriginalNorthernmost Harborfeudal lord, ViscountNanors. Thesepeopleeitherwere forcedto loseoneselfterritory, eitherhad been robbedallpeopleby the Greycastleperson, undergranting of fiefreward, theyhired oneselfwithout hesitationhissubordinates, the guard, trusted subordinateandsquire who ifwas countedbringingagain, the availableoperationalpopulation of thisteamreached over 300much.公爵环顾一圈,默默记下每个人的面容与神情。房间里一共坐着45个应招者,他们大部分是骑士,也有那么几个男爵,而身份最高的则是原极北港的领主,拿诺斯子爵。这些人要么被迫失去了自己的领地,要么被灰堡人抢走了所有子民,在封地奖赏的允诺下,他们毫不犹豫地投靠到了他的麾下,如果再算上自带的侍卫、亲信和扈从,这支队伍的可用作战人数已多达300以上。Hasto do mental arithmeticto have no interest, populationalsoto have the superiority, thisobviouslyis an extremely goodopportunity. Most critically, theirfirsttimedid not have the disparity on weaponwith the match. In the pastEternal Winternoblewas hitdoes not have the strength of resisting, lay in the firearm of Greycastleperson is really fierce, itsrate of fire and distancewere notsnow powderweapon that theyimitatedcancompare. If no Vault of Heaven Lordthebatchto seize the support, let alone300people, even ifrisesagaintwotimes, will not havenobleto be willingto assisthimto go to and Greycastlepersongoes all out.
有心算无心、人数又占据优势,这显然是一次极好的机会。更关键的是,他们第一次和对手没有了武器上的差距。过去永冬贵族被打得毫无招架之力,就在于灰堡人的火器实在凶猛,其射速和距离远不是他们仿制的雪粉武器所能比。若没有天穹之主的这批缴获支援,别说300人了,就算再翻上两倍,也不会有贵族愿意协助他去和灰堡人拼命。„Does not know how everybodydid prepare?”Marvinsettles the throatclear, „Ithinkthesefirearm, should yourpeopletouchripe?”
“不知各位都准备得怎么样了?”马维恩清了清喉咙,“我想那些火器,你们的人应该已经摸熟了吧?”„Does not load the bore of gun the bullet, thenaims at the targetto deduct the trigger,”ViscountNanors the whole faceindignationdid not say, the thing that „thesemountains and plainsfarmerscancause, does not have the truthweactually unable to use. That several fellow of capturemust the severe sentenceconfess, the toneis afraid to say a word, the non-sentimentnot to hope, whenIhaveanythingto be great!”
“不就是将子弹装入枪膛,然后对准目标扣下扳机么,”拿诺斯子爵满脸不忿道,“那些山野农夫都会使的玩意,没道理我们却用不来。那几个被俘的家伙非得上重刑才交代,语气还吞吞吐吐、不情不愿,我当有什么了不起的!”„Right, mustsay that itmanufactures, usto be hardnot to hope to attainexquisitelyfalse, butuses, maybe easier than the sword.”Knightechoes saying that „Ihave also interrogated the Greycastleperson, theirjoiningarmyuntil nowis abouttwoyears, generalonemonthcanlearn the firearmfire, butI was only practice the swordto spend for fiveyears.”
“没错,要说它制作精妙、我们难以企及不假,但用起来嘛,比刀剑可容易多了。”一名骑士附和道,“我也审问过灰堡人,他们加入军队至今不过两年,一般一个月就能学会火器射击,而我光是练剑就花了五年的时间。”„Onemonthisbecausetheseoutcastesare too dull-witted, tradesto beme, threedayssuffice.”Anotherperson of speechcausedoneto laugh.
“一个月是因为这些贱民太愚钝,换作我,三天就够啦。”另一人的发言引起了一阵哄笑。„Imustmakethemknow,did not have the firearmtheiranythingis not!”
“我要让他们知道,没有了火器他们什么也不是!”„Hasn't firearmdone obeisancewitchto bestow? Ilooked that King of GreycastledrilledChurchto sweepEternal Winter and Wolf Heartneutral gear.”
“火器还不是拜女巫所赐?我看灰堡之王不过是钻了教会扫荡永冬和狼心的空档罢了。”Will of the peopleavailable! Marvinrealized,thesenoblehave suppresseda lot offires, was already ready to fightto waitto retaliatethatgroup of Greycastlepeople. Althoughthismixteamoneweek ago pieces together, someinsidepeoplemutuallycannot even name the character, buteverybodyat leastharbors the similargoal, each oneis sporty.
人心可用!马维恩意识到,这些贵族已经憋了一肚子火,早就摩拳擦掌等着报复那群灰堡人了。虽然这支混合队伍一周前才拼凑出来,里面一些人甚至相互叫不出名字,但大家至少都怀着同样的目标,个个劲头十足。„Thattype the crossbowarrowquantity of being called the bulletis limited, dividesto everyone onwere less.”Beforefollowed his Knightto let go saying that „if possible, Ihopeeverybodycansave the pointto use, the equidistancenearhas opened fireagain.”
“不过那种被称为子弹的弩矢数量有限,分到每个人头上的就更少了。”之前跟随他的那名骑士摊手道,“如果可以的话,我希望大家能省着点用,等距离近了再开火。”Marvinapplauselooked atopposite partyseveral, thisperson of namecalledVoller, the Western Regionnative, before thisledhimalsoto settle onhisresourcefulness. Canknowfromthese words, Vollercaught the victory and defeatkey, ifcanfind an opportunity, receivedhimfor the person on one's own sideis good.马维恩赞许的多看了对方几眼,此人名叫弗勒,西境本地人,此前带着他也是看中了他的机敏。从这番话便可知,弗勒已经抓到了胜负的关键,若能找个机会,将他收为自己人就好了。„Relax,” the Dukehearthas the bamboo saying that „the bullet of Greycastlepersonare not similarly many. Wolf Heartnorthwestmulti-mountainous regions, this pointhas limitedtheircarrying a heavy load. Moreover...... Theywill makeusapproach, escortsrefugeeto leave the dangerous situation, is not just the slogan that theypropagandize?”
“放心,”公爵心有成竹道,“灰堡人的子弹同样不多。狼心西北多山地,这一点限制了他们的负重。另外……他们会让我们靠近的,护送逃难者离开险境,不正是他们宣传的口号吗?”
The peoplealsosneer.
众人也跟着冷笑起来。Right, so long as the opposite partytoplunder the populationcomes, will inevitably not give upthiswaveextremely easy to obtain„lamb”. Butas everyone knows, the pack of wolvesalsowill sometimes be hidden. Inthisworld, becomesfrom the hunterpreyoftenismatterin a flash, whentheydiscovercheats, perhapsoneselfalreadygot sucked into the prisoner's cage.
没错,只要对方是为了掠夺人口而来,就必然不会放弃这波唾手可得的“羔羊”。但殊不知,狼群有时也会隐没于其中。在这个世界上,从猎人变为猎物往往不过是转瞬间的事,等到他们发现有诈时,恐怕自身早已深陷囚笼。Laterso long ascamouflages the appearance of opposite partyagain, turns roundto lootcitiesalong the way, the propaganda of Greycastlepersonto collapse of itselfinevitably. Comesrepeatedlyonseveraltimes, theydo not wantto carry offonepersonfromhereagain.
之后只要再伪装成对方的模样,回身去洗劫一番沿途的城镇,灰堡人的宣传必然不攻自破。反复来上几次,他们就别想再从这边拉走一人了。„Ihave spread the news, believes that sideGreycastlequickwill have an action to perform, when the time comeseverybodymaydisplaygreatlyheartily, obtainedseizesalsoallbelongs toyou!”Marvinsetting outsummarized, „this was not only yourrevengegood opportunities, wasgripstakes the opportunity of territoryandwealth! So long asachieves the goal, Imustnot go back on word! Let the Greycastlepersona debt of blood must be paid in bloodtimeto!”
“我已经放出了消息,相信灰堡那边很快会有所动作,到时候各位大可尽情发挥,所得缴获也悉数归你们所有!”马维恩起身总结道,“这既是你们的复仇良机,也是攥取领地与财富的机会!只要达成目的,我必不会食言!诸位,让灰堡人血债血偿的时刻到了!”
