The future about 50 people, wear the armor completely, under sunlight sparkling. The four sides flag in team, three symbolize the high tower double high-quality tea made of very young leaves of Greycastle royal family, one is the high tower wharf flag, he has thought deeply about the meeting in the brain, recognizes this to be the symbol of northern region Hawse Family clan. 来者约50人左右,全部身着铠甲,在阳光下闪闪发光。队伍中的四面旗帜,有三面是象征灰堡王室的高塔双枪旗,还有一面是高塔马头旗,他在脑中思索了会,认出这应该是北境霍斯家族的标志。 In the Knight team goes out of one person, shouts high: I am Lehman Hawes, Timothy King envoy, I have brought the Kingdom Capital resolution, please put down the hanging bridge.” 骑士队伍中走出一人,高喊道:“我是雷曼.霍斯,提费科国王使者,我带来了王都的决议,请放下吊桥。” Certificate?” Petrov pokes head, asked loudly. “凭证呢?”培罗探出头,大声问道。 The opposite party takes off the bow and arrow from the back, ties up paper roll on the arrow, shoots the top directly. 对方从背后摘下弓箭,将一张纸卷绑在箭上,直接射上城头。 Guard picks arrows for him immediately, Petrov launches the parchment, sees only under document/secretary to inlay the staggered gold thread faintly, the right bottom is covering the Wimbledon royal family seal, is new King envoy is truly unmistakable. 身边的侍卫立刻为他捡来箭矢,培罗展开羊皮纸,只见文书下方隐隐嵌着交错的金丝,右下角盖着温布顿王室印章,确实是新王使者无误。 Falls the bridge, opens the door.” Petrov took a deep breath, he had guessed correctly probably the so-called Kingdom Capital resolution the content-- was most likely related with Roland Wimbledon. Since the opposite party does not pretend, oneself then not the reason that new King envoy keeps them out, otherwise is equal to with Greycastle Kingdom Capital for the enemy. Once this news passes on, several other everybody definitely without hesitation will aim at the Honeysuckle territory the spearhead, the undercurrent that in the city suppresses instantaneously will also rebound. “落桥,开门。”培罗深吸口气,他已经大概猜到所谓王都决议的内容了——十有八九和罗兰.温布顿有关。既然对方并非假冒,自己便没有将新王使者拒之门外的理由,否则等同于与灰堡王都为敌。一旦这个消息传出去,另外几大家肯定会毫不犹豫地将矛头指向金银花领地,城内压制下去的暗流也会瞬间反弹。 Perhaps however Timothy only sends out 50 people of envoy groups to come to inquire situation also to verify Fourth Prince view-- new King now not to have the free time to have jurisdiction over the place of Western Region but actually. 不过提费科仅派出一支50人的使者团前来问询情况倒也印证了四王子的说法——新王或许现在没工夫管辖西境之地。 Since the His Highness the Prince more than 1000 people of Duke allied armies can repel continually, perhaps these 50 people also can only fly back without any results. 既然王子殿下连1000多人的公爵联军都能击退,这50人恐怕也只能无功而返。 Naturally, this news needs to inform Your Highness Roland as soon as possible. 当然,这个消息还是需要尽快通知罗兰殿下。 Thinks of here, before he called that Knight, Westeros, you took three short-tail horses, transferred, told Border Town feudal lord this news as soon as possible. Said, Timothy person horse.” 想到这儿,他叫来之前的那名骑士,“维斯特洛,你带上三匹短尾马,一路换乘,尽快将这个消息告诉边陲镇领主。就说,提费科的人马来了。” As you bid.” The Westeros nod said. 遵命。”维斯特洛点头道。 Saw that Knight turns around to depart, Petrov sighed, we greeted new King envoy.” 看到骑士转身离去,培罗叹了口气,“我们下去迎接新王使者吧。” ...... …… Stands when the city gate mouth he discovered, besides walking ten people forefront team appears full of energy, other Knight seem some dispiriteds, sits at immediately the rickets the body, as if momentarily must pour general. 站在城门口时他才发现,除了走在队伍最前面的十来人显得精神抖擞外,其余骑士看上去有些萎靡,坐在马上佝偻着身子,仿佛随时要倒下来一般。 Hello, Knight Lehman,” the Petrov nod expressed best wishes, I was the stronghold superintendent, Honeysuckle Family Petrov Hull.” “你好,雷曼爵士,”培罗点头致意道,“我是要塞管理者,金银花家族培罗.赫尔蒙。” A stronghold superintendent word makes him feel some astringent mouths. If are Western Region wields, stronghold Duke, does not need to salute to envoy, even does not use in the entrance greets the opposite party, only with treating in the feudal lord castle, waited for that the opposite party seeks an interview well. 要塞管理者一词让他感到有些涩口。假若自己真的是西境执掌、要塞公爵,自不必向使者行礼,甚至不用在门口迎接对方,只用待在领主城堡,等待对方求见就好。 I have listened to your name in Cold Wind Ridge, " for Sir Duke " ,” Lehman turns over/stands up dismount, arrives in front of him to smile, your Western Region is really a strange place, the Duke Ryan set army was unable to overcome small town unexpectedly, instead compensated own life, this may be rarely seen in Greycastle. Naturally, to Honeysuckle this perhaps is a good news.” “我在寒风岭就听过你的名字,「代公爵大人」,”雷曼翻身下马,走到他面前笑了笑,“你们西境还真是个奇怪的地方,莱恩公爵集合大军竟没能打下一个小镇,反而赔上了自己的性命,这在灰堡可不多见。当然,对金银花来说这或许是个好消息。” Petrov has neglected satire in his words automatically, „is your subordinate good? They seem a little...... Uncomfortable.” 培罗自动忽略了他话里的讽刺,“你的部下还好吗?他们看上去有点……难受。” Does not need to manage them,” Lehman turns head to cast a sidelong glance, rushes about probably unaccustomed to the climate, the rest time period was good. To be honest, this place was also too hot.” “不用管他们,”雷曼回头瞟了一眼,“大概是一路奔波加水土不服,休息阵子就好了。老实说,这地方也太热了。” Was north was too cold,”, since the opposite party did not care, Petrov was also disinclined to pay attention to this matter again, why I am very curious Your Majesty's envoy why from Cold Wind Ridge set off, but didn't come from Kingdom Capital?” “是北方太冷了,”既然对方不在乎,培罗也懒得再理会这事,“我很好奇为什么陛下的使者为什么会从寒风岭出发,而不是来自王都?” Because of Timothy Your Majesty in northern region, he is speaking frankly at this time, „when Esse Duke is void while the border guard strength at the north manufacture rebellion, is a suspect to rebel, King has to dispatch troops to put down a rebellion.” “因为提费科陛下此时正在北境,”他直言道,“艾斯公爵趁着边境卫队实力空虚之际在北方制造暴动,涉嫌叛乱,国王不得不发兵平叛。” Rebellion? Petrov frowned, this does not conform to common sense, although the border guard has and mercenary soldiers from Greycastle regional Knight, but the majority of members were still Duke oneself subordinate, where had oneself subordinate to lose under serious situation to initiate the truth of rebellion? Remembers Duke Ryan the plan to annex the Northern Lands letter while this opportunity, in his heart raises not a good premonition...... Is it possible that what Timothy Wimbledon hits is the similar idea? 叛乱?培罗皱起眉头,这不符合常理,边境卫队虽然有来自灰堡各地的骑士和佣兵,但大部分成员仍是公爵本人的手下,哪有自己部下损失惨重的情况下发起叛乱的道理?想起莱恩公爵本打算趁着这个机会吞并北地的信件,他心中升起一股不好的预感……莫非提费科.温布顿打的是同样的主意? What then the Kingdom Capital resolution is?” “那么王都的决议是什么?” Recalls the command,” Lehman said, Your Majesty sends me to come this's goal not to see Western Region also falls into the chaos caused by war. If I have not remembered incorrectly, when Months of Demons, His Majesty The King mailed to Roland Wimbledon recalled the command, but he still has not returned to Kingdom Capital now.” “召回令,”雷曼说道,“陛下派我来此的目的正是不想看到西境也陷入战乱之中。如果我没记错的话,早在邪魔之月时,国王陛下就向罗兰.温布顿寄来了召回令,可他现在依然没有返回王都。” This document/secretary delivers to the stronghold time should five months ago, but Your Highness Roland not like old times these feudal lord, before Months of Demons arrives returns to stronghold to seek asylum,” Petrov paused, at that time he is leading his people to resist the Evil Beast's attack in Border Town, has no way to start to return to Kingdom Capital immediately.” “该文书送至要塞的时间应该是在五个月前,不过罗兰殿下并没有像往年那些领主一样,在邪月降临前返回要塞避难,”培罗顿了顿,“当时他正在边陲镇领导他的人民抵御邪兽的侵袭,没法立刻启程返回王都。” Now Months of Demons had finished nearly for three months,” Lehman cannot set otherwise said, King sends me to escort him to return to Kingdom Capital.” “如今邪魔之月已经结束快三个月了,”雷曼不可置否道,“国王派我来护送他回王都。” When do you plan to go to Border Town?” “你们打算什么时候前往边陲镇?” Early tomorrow morning then set off.” “明天一早便出发。” The words that hurries along normally, arrive in small town to require three days of time, the words that Knight that oneself send out travels day and night, a day one late can deliver to the news, such Your Highness Roland should also be able to be ready that deals with, Petrov thinks, oneself can do, only then these many. 正常赶路的话,抵达小镇需要三天时间,自己派出的骑士日夜兼程的话,一天一晚就能将消息送到,这样罗兰殿下也应该能做好应对的准备,培罗想,自己所能做的,也只有这么多了。 Brings envoy to roll to arrive at stronghold camp, he stops the footsteps saying that here is the base of Duke Knight group, you here well rest an evening, the dinner party has the specialist to deliver. As for Mr. envoy,” he looks to Lehman Hawes, castle will hold a sumptuous evening banquet for you, please must participate.” 带着使者团一行人来到要塞营地,他停下脚步道,“这里原本是公爵骑士团的驻扎地,你们就在这里好好休息一晚吧,晚餐会有专人送到。至于使者先生,”他看向雷曼.霍斯,“城堡会为你举办一场丰盛的晚宴,请务必参加。” Many thanks your generous, Knight Petrov.” The latter said with a smile. “多谢你的慷慨,培罗爵士。”后者笑道。 ******************* ******************* After the evening banquet ended, Lehman returns to camp, walks into the central big tent, under several masters has encircled immediately. 晚宴结束后,雷曼返回营地,走入中央大帐篷,几名手下立刻围了上来。 „Is situation what kind of?” He asked. 情况怎么样?”他问。 Some all around people are monitoring, the exit also stations a about hundred people of army, but the majority complete armor, should not be the city patrol leader,” a person reports to say. It seems like Sir feudal lord does not feel relieved us.” “四周都有人在监视,出口处还驻有一支近百人的部队,不过大部分没有完备的盔甲,应该是城市巡逻队,”一人汇报道。“看来领主大人并不放心我们。” „The information is at least correct, I inquired from the banquet the news that also confirmed this.” Lehman whispered. „After Duke defeats, majority of Knight caught went to Border Town, in stronghold could be used in elite of combat not being many.” “至少情报是正确的,我从宴席上打听到的消息也证实了这点。”雷曼沉声道。“公爵战败后,大部分骑士被抓去了边陲镇,要塞里能用于作战的精锐并不多。” Before arriving in this place, he in detail has understood Longsong Stronghold situation. The Timothy Your Majesty confession gives his duty is very simple, that is the reason of inquiry clear Duke failure, then takes the corresponding measure, captures the Western Region control as soon as possible. 在抵达此地之前,他就已经详细了解过长歌要塞情况提费科陛下交代给他的任务也十分简单,那就是打探清楚公爵失败的缘由,然后采取相应的措施,尽早夺取西境控制权。 These people treateds with medication...... Condition how?” “那些服药者……状态如何?” Arrived the limit, another person said quickly, present, so long as gives them the pill, any matter they are willing to do.” “已经快到极限了,”另一人说道,“现在只要给他们药丸,任何事他们都愿意去做。” The envoy group is a pretence, a 50 people of team, true Knight only 13, other disguise as Knight mercenary, under the Church pill influence, they must be obedient compared with the hunting dog now, is more flagitious than Evil Beast. This is Lehman captures the city gate key. According to the plan, another 1500 people of militia teams are approaching to stronghold slowly, so long as opens city gate, this city will fall into own hand. 使者团不过是个幌子,一支50人的队伍,真正的骑士仅有13位,其他都是假扮成骑士雇佣兵,在教会药丸影响下,他们现在比猎犬还要听话,比邪兽还要凶残。这正是雷曼夺取城门的关键。按照计划,另一支1500人的民兵队伍正在缓缓向要塞靠近,只要打开城门,这座城市就会落入自己的手中。 Distribution pill, making ten people remain to cope with the patrol leader, other people set out to the east gate direction.” He ordered. “分发药丸,让十人留下来对付巡逻队,其他人向东门方向进发。”他下令道。
