Petrov sips black tea, by the soft feudal lord chair, long released a long breath. 培罗抿了口红茶,靠在柔软的领主椅子上,长长出了口气。 From taking over control of Longsong Stronghold passed for two months to the present, he discovered that oneself liked this hall more and more. Assumes the multi-step progressive rise the structure to let him the official and attendants who from the seat of honor position bird's eye view stands, the feeling that this type has great power makes him well satisfied. 自接管长歌要塞到现在已过去了两个多月,他发现自己越来越喜欢这间大厅了。呈阶梯式逐级上升的结构可以让他从主座位置俯瞰下面站立的官员和侍从,这种大权在握的感觉让他心满意足。 In initial one month, but also some small noble will jump to question itself blatantly, or plans the backstage manipulator who the rebellion and so on-- shoulders certainly them to raise one's head to come from Elk and Wolf several respected families in secret most likely. Petrov obeyed father's suggestion, will not have the causing trouble common people or underground Mouse of title delivers hanging post entirely, has small noble of title to imprison, after the family pays the ransom money, pursues Western Region. 最初的一个月里,还会有些小贵族跳出来公然质疑自己,或是暗中策划暴动之类——当然挑起他们出头的幕后人物十有八九来自麋鹿、奔狼几大家族。培罗听从了父亲的建议,将没有爵位的闹事平民或地下老鼠统统送上绞刑架,有爵位的小贵族则囚禁起来,待家族缴纳赎金后驱逐出西境。 This set of Thunder method executes, the aspect subsides quickly. After all besides Honeysuckle Family, several other everybody's Knight caught went to Border Town, impossible from has revolted against the Petrov policy outwardly. Afterward he branches out part to compensate respected family's loss when seizing the stronghold benefit, making all noble form a quite stable interest group temporarily. 这一套雷霆手段施行下来,局面很快平息。毕竟除了金银花家外,其他几大家的骑士都被抓去了边陲镇,不可能从明面上反抗培罗的政策。事后他又将要塞的利益分出一部分补偿大家族在抓捕时的损失,使所有贵族暂时形成了一个较为稳定的利益团体。 Now the stronghold income besides 30% turns to Border Town, the remaining 70% miles, 30% are used to maintain the city to revolve, 20% comfort other big noble, the Hull territory obtains remaining 20%. 现在要塞的收入除了三成上缴给边陲镇外,剩下的七成里,三成用于维持城市运转,两成安抚其余大贵族,赫尔蒙领地得到剩下的两成。 Now, after the seat back of feudal lord , the portrait that is hanging was changed into Fourth Prince Roland Wimbledon by Duke Ryan, he was anticipating one day can hang up oneself-- Petrov Hull portrait. 如今,领主之座背后悬挂的画像由莱恩公爵换成了四王子罗兰.温布顿,他期待着有一天能挂上自己——培罗.赫尔蒙的肖像。 If can have Longsong Stronghold thoroughly, own Earl leads to be able with stronghold continually to become the same place, becomes the Duke territory that is worthy of the reputation, turning and comforting 50% can also save, invests comes up into the stronghold management trade, thus received exchange for a richer repayment. 如果能彻底拥有长歌要塞,自家的伯爵领就能和要塞连成一块,成为名副其实的公爵领地,上缴与安抚的五成也都能省下来,投入到要塞的经营贸易上去,从而换取更丰厚的回报。 Naturally, the premise is Roland can mount Throne smoothly, becomes the king of Greycastle throughout. 当然,前提是罗兰能顺利登上王座,成为灰堡全境之王。 „Sir,” a guard enters the feudal lord hall, hands over a letter, „came from the Border Town's news.” “大人,”一名侍卫走进领主大厅,递上一封信件,“是来自边陲镇的消息。” Heard Border Town this word, Petrov sits straight the body immediately. 听到边陲镇这个词,培罗立刻坐直了身体。 He received the envelope, the light straw paper will shake the draw, can look with the paper from poor qualitative, the letter came from him in the informer who in the serf team places. 他接过信封,将薄薄的莎草纸抖平,从劣质的用纸就可以看出来,信件来自于他在农奴队伍里安插的眼线。 Two months ago that fight results may be called unthinkable, although Petrov has not gone personally, actually obeying the father personally heard a strange story. In order to clarify reason of Duke failure, he in dispatching the person hand of small town has arranged many trusted aides, their disguise to become Gongjiang, herdsman or the serf, feed in stronghold news information one by one that oneself see. 两个多月前的那场战斗结果堪称匪夷所思,培罗虽没有亲自前往,却从父亲口中听到了一个离奇的故事。为了弄清楚公爵失败的原因,他在派往小镇的人手里安排了许多心腹,他们乔装成工匠、牧民或农奴,将自己所见的消息情报一一传回要塞。 He believes, other families definitely also such will do. 他相信,其它家族肯定也会这么做。 But until now, besides camouflaging the two people of serf still transmits beyond the recent information in each month, these craftsmen and herdsmen do not have the message, as if vanished generally. 可是至今为止,除了伪装成农奴的两人还在每月传来新情报外,那些匠人和牧民则毫无音讯,仿佛消失了一般。 Was they betrayed itself, was discovered after by the prince, eradicated entirely? 到底是他们背叛了自己,还是被王子发现后,统统铲除了？ He shakes the head, focuses on the confidential letter. 他摇摇头,将注意力放在密信上。 The content of letter was written by the charcoal pencils, the issue document is crooked, some places have by the trace that the water immersion crosses, it seems like covertly writes down when working. 信的内容由炭笔写成,行文歪歪扭扭,一些地方还有被水浸过的痕迹,看来是在干活时偷偷摸摸写下来的。 First said, is the Scarlet Water River shore is constructing the use unclear iron tower. The tower top is piling up a giant billy, at present has stood erect three, the altitude of each place nears the stronghold city wall. The blacksmiths as if complete the manufacture of iron tower in the town, when transports to the riverside is a whole. Then will have the First Army soldier to be at around iron tower the standing up back plate, when next day, it mysteriously will stand erect. 第一段说,是赤水河岸边正在修建用途不明的铁塔。塔顶堆放着一个巨大的铁罐,目前已竖立起三座,每座的高度都接近要塞城墙。铁匠们似乎是在镇子里完成铁塔的制作,运到河边时已是一个整体。接着会有第一军战士在铁塔周围起立挡板,待到第二天,它就会神奇地竖立起来。 " Construction " ...... Also is this word, Petrov thinks, on a confidential letter also this, the light looks at the information the words, felt construction small town that prince kept, the previous time is to build roads to repair the bridge, this time is to cultivate the iron tower. Can your highness completely squander gold royal that plunders from the stronghold castle is willingly? Moreover iron tower also use unclear...... Must know the scout in hidden serf is not the genuine serf, but is experienced personal guard, if the sentry post tower or the archer's tower, he can certainly one come out shortly. 「修建」……又是这个词,培罗想,上一封密信也这样,光看情报的话,感觉王子正在不停的建造小镇,上次是修路修桥,这次是修铁塔。难道殿下要一口气把从要塞城堡里搜刮去的金龙全部花光才甘心？而且铁塔还用途不明……要知道暗藏农奴中的探子并不是真正的农奴,而是见多识广的亲卫,如果是哨塔或者箭楼,他一定能一眼看出来。 Is the iron tower has not finished probably completely, is not good to judge, Petrov shakes the head, when perhaps next month will have a more detailed information. 大概是铁塔尚未完全完工,不好判断吧,培罗摇摇头,或许等到下个月时会有更详细的情报。 He moves to next the vision. 他将目光移至下一段。 In the letter writes, a scale huge merchant fleet small town dock stays for one week later departs to east, the ownership is unclear. During the stay, has unloaded big pile of ore ingot and saltpeter from the ship. 信上写到,一支规模庞大的商人船队在小镇码头停留一周后向东离去,归属不明。停留期间从船上卸下了大堆矿锭和硝石。 Purchases saltpeter to be easy to understand, will become the summer to the second month very burning hot, the castle temperature decrease needs to consume massive saltpeter, but can also be used to refrigerate the liquor water and fruit juice, as royal family noble, will definitely not be willing to sweat profusely by oneself all day, and farmer in farmland will be equally distressed. 购买硝石容易理解,夏季到第二个月会变得十分炎热,城堡降温需要消耗大量硝石,还可以用来冷藏酒水和果汁,作为一名王室贵族,肯定不愿让自己整天大汗淋漓,跟田地里的农夫一样狼狈。 But buys ore ingot to make Petrov feel that was somewhat accidental, the Border Town itself was the ore habitat, before remembering Months of Demons, when oneself as envoy went to small town, Prince Roland also exaggerates, said that must turn time the sell ore total quantity, finally now not only does not export the ore, instead can also import ore ingot? 可是购入矿锭就让培罗感到有些意外了,边陲镇本就是矿石产地,记得邪魔之月前,自己作为使者前往小镇时,罗兰王子还夸大其词,说要将出售矿石的总量翻倍,结果现在不但不出口矿石,反而还要进口矿锭了？ Associates to the previous neutralization stronghold city wall contour iron tower, he discovered that oneself did not ravel His Highness the Prince to make anything more and more. 联想到上一段中和要塞城墙等高的铁塔,他发现自己越来越弄不明白王子殿下想要做什么了。 However when Petrov looks to confidential letter last, immediately was shocked. 不过当培罗看至密信最后一段时,顿时愣住了。 Did the Border Town recent two weeks hold several field open-air plays to perform in the square? 边陲镇最近两周在广场举办了数场露天戏剧表演？ Does not receive the admission ticket, the play name hears something never heard of before, moreover encourages the serf to watch. Those who most made him be startled, in the performer had unexpectedly recently did not know trace the star of Western Region, Miss May! 不收门票,戏剧名称闻所未闻,而且还鼓励农奴观看。最令他吃惊的是,表演者里居然有近日不知所踪的西境之星,梅伊小姐！ What situation is this? 这是什么情况？ May was missing was recently a stronghold flash news, several fields the play that should play the lead by her changed the female role one after another, noble halfway leaving the table expressed the protest. The theater has to issue the circular, claimed that May not with situation that under anybody confesses, leaves the theater arbitrarily, at present is missing. News, making noble of Western Region hobby play immediately in an uproar. 梅伊失踪是最近要塞的一个大新闻,接连数场本该由她主演的戏剧换了女角,贵族们半途离席表示抗议。剧院不得不发出通告,声称梅伊未跟任何人交代的情况下,擅自离开剧院,目前下落不明。消息一出,让西境爱好戏剧的贵族们顿时哗然。 Finally did she actually run up to Border Town? There also does not have the theater! Moreover performs to the common people and serfs...... In the Petrov brain is hard to imagine such scene for a while, Miss May in his impression is not the amiable actor. 结果她却跑到边陲镇去了？那里又没有剧院！而且给平民和农奴演出……培罗脑中一时难以想象这样的场景,他印象中的梅伊小姐可不是位平易近人的演员。 The consideration over and over, he decided that writes to Your Highness Roland, inquired this matter to him officially. As a theater lover, had not seen that for a long time the brilliant performance of star of Western Region did not say, including inviting the Shirley opportunity has been short. Since play at small town square public performance, then peddler to see is also nothing unusual, exactly this peddler from Longsong Stronghold, therefore the news spreads to oneself ear-- so to come, should expose not hide personal guard in serf. 考虑再三,他决定给罗兰殿下写封信,向他正式询问此事。作为一名戏剧爱好者,长时间没有见到西境之星的精彩演出不说,连邀请雪莉尔的机会都少了很多。既然戏剧是在小镇广场公开演出的,那么被行商看到也不足为奇,恰好这名行商来自长歌要塞,因此消息才传入自己耳中——如此想来,应该不会暴露潜藏在农奴里的亲卫。 In Petrov prepares to make attendants draft the article contains, a Knight half step enters the hall, the anxious sound said, „Sir, the guard in east gate watchtower discovered, has the Knight team to approach to stronghold!” 就在培罗准备让侍从草拟文涵时,一名骑士快步走进大厅,急声道,“大人,东门望楼的卫兵发现,有支骑士队伍正在向要塞靠近！” „Knight? Where can distinguish comes?” He stands up suddenly. “骑士？能分辨是从哪里来的吗？”他忽地站起身。 „The opposite party is holding high tower dual spears/pistols flag, Sir,” Knight answer said that „, if not pretends to be, they should be the new King armies.” “对方举着高塔双枪旗帜,大人,”骑士回答道,“如果不是冒充的话,他们应该是新王的部队。”
