#522: Numerous welling up northern region

...... …… „What you said!?” “你说什么！？” Eternal Night City feudal lord, Northern Lands Duke Calvin Kant does not dare to believe stands up, is looking at the present messenger. The drinking glass on table knocks down, sends out the clear broken sound. 永夜城领主,北地公爵卡尔文.康德不敢置信地站起身,望着眼前的信使。桌上的水杯打翻在地,发出清脆的碎响。 „Sir Duke, this is I personally sees!” Latter buried lowered, „rebel King only broke through the Kingdom Capital city wall with day of time, His Majesty The King was unable to run away, now was perhaps more unfortunate than fortunate!” “公爵大人,这都是我亲眼所见！”后者头埋得更低了些,“叛王只用一天时间就攻破了王都的城墙,国王陛下也没能逃出去,现在恐怕已凶多吉少！” „This...... How possible?” Calvin muttered, „that was Kingdom Capital!” “这……怎么可能？”卡尔文喃喃道,“那可是王都啊！” Five zhang (3.33 m) high blue stone city wall, several thousand people of guard armies, the sling mechanism and snow powder, do not have 20,000-30,000 people of teams, do not want to cross this defense line. Moreover Fourth Prince can the collection these many people, should not within one day capture Kingdom Capital! 五丈高的青石城墙,数千人的守卫部队,还有抛石机和雪粉,没有两三万人的队伍,根本别想越过这道防线。而且就算四王子能集起这么多人,也不应该一天之内就攻下王都啊！ „They...... Their firearm were too formidable,” the voice of messenger trembles slightly, does not know the physical strength that hurries along to cause at the same night is weak, was witnessed by oneself all shocks, „, not only can the continuous emission, the might be much bigger, let alone Knight, the King crazy guards have not been able to prevent them to go forward, so long as by, even if has not died also basically went to half life...... In comparison, the Your Majesty's firearm with burning the fire rake does not have anything to distinguish generally.” “他们……他们的火器太强大了,”信使的声音微微发颤,不知道是连夜赶路导致的体力虚弱,还是被自己目睹的一切所震撼,“不但可以连续发射,威力还大得惊人,别说骑士了,就连国王的狂化卫队都不能阻挡他们前进,只要挨着一下,就算没死也基本去了半条命……相比之下,陛下的火器就跟烧火棍一般没什么区别。” In the Calvin brain a blank piece, only has a thought at heart, ended, all ended. 卡尔文脑中空白一片,心里只有一个念头,完了,一切都完了。 One week ago receives the order of new King, requesting him to deploy an army to support Kingdom Capital, as Northern Lands Duke that confers newly, he naturally must respond. After a discussion, finally Calvin snow fox Lesta and family has reassigned a 2500 people of team from wharf Hawse and , after snow, starts Emperor Qin--, although it is expected that between the time of arrival and support requirement letter has almost been separated by over half a month, but considered that the siege warfare will continue of several months frequently, therefore is not too late. 一个多星期前接到新王的命令,要求他派遣一支部队支援王都,身为新册封的北地公爵,他自然得作出回应。一番商议后,最终卡尔文从马头霍斯、雪狐利斯塔和自己家族中抽调了一支2500人的队伍,等到化雪后启程勤王——虽然预计抵达时间和求援信之间差不多相隔了大半个月,不过考虑到攻城战经常会持续数月之久,所以也算不上太晚。 Because plows in the spring will soon start, in the team does not have many serfs, Knight is also few, majority are the mercenary soldier and freemen, but no matter how, so long as has sent out the team, in the rebel King eye inevitably is the crime of plotting a rebellion, his auspicious day must quickly to the end. 由于春耕即将开始,队伍里没有多少农奴,骑士也寥寥无几,大多数是佣兵和自由民,但不管如何,只要派出了队伍,在叛王眼里必然是谋反之罪,他的好日子很快就要到头了。 Right, Edith! Calvin has remembered his treasure daughter suddenly, if she, perhaps can also find out the method that anything saves. 对了,还有伊蒂丝！卡尔文忽然想起了他的宝贝女儿,如果是她的话,说不定还能想出什么挽救的方法。 „Quick, goes to call my room the eldest daughter!” He shouts toward guard. “快,去把长女叫到我的房间来！”他朝身边的侍卫喊道。 Quick, Edith of personal casual attire entered the study room, her body side also hangs the training saber, the hair plate in the top of the head, on the tip of the nose is secreting the careful beads of sweat. Obviously she like was practicing Swordsmanship in the past, on the face is bringing an unhesitating, „haven't I meant? When practices the sword do not disturb me.” 很快,一袭贴身便装的伊蒂丝走进了书房,她身侧还挂着训练用的佩剑,头发盘在头顶,鼻尖上泌出细细的汗珠。显然她正在像往常那样练习剑术,脸上带着一丝不豫,“我不是说过了么？练剑时不要打扰我。” „This chapter of difference, family must encounter the disaster!” Calvin has repeated the news that the messenger brought back to anxiously, „now what to do should we?” “这一回不同,家族要遭遇大难了！”卡尔文急切地把信使带回的消息复述了一遍,“我们现在该怎么办？” He is looking at the daughter earnestly, hopes that she can give solution--, if Northern Lands is rich in Pearl, that Edith Kant is that brightest one. She not only the beautiful appearance is moving, but also talent is extremely high, in politics in marching at combat, made other male be overshadowed. It can be said that the Kant family can from position of climb until now Northern Lands Duke Earl, Edith has lasting achievements. 他殷切地望着女儿,希望她能给出一条解决之道——如果说北地盛产珍珠,那伊蒂丝.康德就是那最为明亮的一颗。她不仅美貌动人,而且天赋极高,无论是政事上还是在行军作战上,都令其他男性黯然失色。可以说康德家族能从伯爵之位爬升到如今的北地公爵,伊蒂丝功不可没。 The daughter when hearing Fourth Prince one day attacks and captures Kingdom Capital to reveal some surprised colors, afterward was quick returned to normal, „now you know why I hadn't agreed to marry Timothy at that time?” 女儿在听到四王子一天攻克王都时露出些许惊讶之色,随后很快又恢复了平静,“现在您知道我为什么当时没有同意嫁给提费科了吧？” Calvin cannot help but stared in a big way the eye, „did you expect all these at that time?” After the Timothy rate/lead army defeats Esse Duke that the intention plots a rebellion, once treated in Northern Lands after a period of time. Like most men, he had a liking for the Northern Lands pearl similarly, but Edith immediately has not actually complied with the opposite party, but shirks envoy that the opposite party has dispatched with the excuse ingeniously. Quite were at that time puzzled, even somewhat blamed the daughter, must know that married is Queen, this was many women's long-awaited matters, but Kant naturally can also sit steadily in the Northern Lands seat. 卡尔文不由得瞪大了眼睛,“难道你那时就预料到了这一切？”提费科率大军击败意图谋反的艾斯公爵后,曾在北地待过一段时间。和大多数男子一样,他同样看上了北地的明珠,但伊蒂丝却没有立刻答应对方,而是用借口巧妙地推脱掉了对方派遣的使者。当时自己还颇为不解,甚至有些责怪女儿,要知道嫁过去就是王后,这可是多少女子梦寐以求的事情,而康德一家在北地的位子自然也能坐得更稳。 „Did you say a day of broken city? That does not have but actually,” Edith unties to tie a belt, lets the azure long hair incline of top of the head, „I thought that he is not the appropriate candidate.” “您说一天破城？那倒没有,”伊蒂丝解开束带,让头顶的青色长发倾斜而下,“我只是觉得他不是合适的人选罢了。” It is not...... Appropriate, Calvin cannot help but at heart was moaning, he was the Greycastle ruler! Even if short, is a country king of being worthy of the reputation! Such person is not appropriate, what person Ah? these words Duke you actually want to marry not saying that in his heart already decided on the attention, if the daughter always does not marry, he passes to Edith-- him to believe the position of Duke, compared with own two sons, the eldest daughter can the best successor who the family carries forward. 不是……合适的,卡尔文不由得在心里呻吟,他可是灰堡统治者！哪怕再短暂,也是名副其实的一国君王！连这样的人都不算合适,你到底想嫁给什么样的人啊？不过这番话公爵并没有说出来,他心中早已打定注意,如果女儿始终不嫁的话,他就把公爵之位传给伊蒂丝——他相信,比起自己的两个儿子,长女才是能将家族发扬光大的最佳继承者。 „Returns to this matter to come up,” Edith bends the waist to pick up the porcelain cup that the ground throws down and breaks, „you must first do is the army that recovers to send.” “回到这件事上来,”伊蒂丝弯腰捡起地上摔碎的瓷杯,“您首先要做的就是追回派出去的军队。” „But they already set off four days, moreover clearly what does not walk is which road, perhaps without enough time......” “可是他们已经出发四天,而且也不清楚走的是哪一条路,恐怕来不及了……” „Might as well,” she manipulates the shapes in three cities fragment, „you send for rushing to Quiet Valley Town first, now the set off words can, go by boat in the evening tomorrow morning again Kingdom Capital, this should be able a day to arrive compared with the army ahead of time. Which road regardless of the army takes, finally will gather the major road in north gate to come up, so long as along its reverse search, can block them in the Kingdom Capital suburb.” “无妨,”她将碎片摆弄成三城的形状,“您先派人赶往幽谷镇,现在出发的话傍晚就能到,明早再乘船去王都,这样应该可以比军队提前一天抵达。无论军队走哪一条路,最终都会汇聚到北门的这条官道上来,只要沿着它反向搜索,便可在王都郊外拦住他们。” „So that's it,” damn, this method should also be able to think that Duke made an effort to tap the head, blamed this news to come extremely suddenly, he was hard to recover for a while, „I write a letter now! No, makes personal guard bring the faith token directly! Comes the person!” “原来如此,”该死,这个方法自己应该也能想到的,公爵用力拍了拍脑袋,都怪这消息来得太过突然,他一时难以回过神来,“我现在就写信！不,直接让亲卫带着信物去！来人！” After personal guard receives an order leaves, Edith continues leisurely saying that „father, you thought we can keep off the attack of Fourth Prince?” 亲卫领命离开后,伊蒂丝继续慢悠悠地说道,“父亲,您觉得我们能挡下四王子的进攻吗？” Calvin hit to tremble, Eternal Night City outer wall might as well Kingdom Capital half were solid, perhaps in front of that day hot weapon, quite a while could not support, „I thought...... Cannot.” 卡尔文不禁打了个寒颤,永夜城的外墙还不如王都的一半坚实,恐怕在那种天火般的武器面前,半天都撑不下来,“我觉得……不能。” „Therefore the light recalls the army also by far insufficiently,” she shrugs, „do not forget you are social climbing Timothy becomes Duke, perhaps has not distinguished with enemy anything in the Roland eye, even if he does not come now, later would. Therefore wish makes the family continue, we must do many and on own initiative.” “所以光是召回军队还远远不够,”她耸耸肩,“别忘了您可是攀附提费科才成为公爵的,在罗兰眼里恐怕和敌人没什么区别,就算他现在不来,以后总会来的。因此想要让家族延续下去,我们必须做得更多、更主动一点。” „Your meaning is...... Let me turn the head to four His Highness the Prince to give loyalty to?” The Calvin hesitant say/way, „why does he believe me?” “你的意思是……让我转头向四王子殿下效忠？”卡尔文犹豫道,“他凭什么相信我？” „Depending on the sincerity,” Edith said in a soft voice, „the after result of this siege warfare spreads, only feared that most noble understanding live timidly, since is unable to collaborate to resist, good that might as well early admits defeat. Naturally, the estimate of thinking continues my, therefore hires oneself to show the sincerity, how otherwise can emerge in numerous noble?” “凭诚意,”伊蒂丝轻声道,“这场攻城战的结果传开后,只怕大多数贵族都会心生胆怯,既然无法联手抵抗,还不如早早认输的好。当然,这么想的估计不止我一个,所以投靠必须要拿出诚意来,不然又怎么能在众多贵族中脱颖而出？” „What...... Sincerity?” “什么样的……诚意？” Edith smiled, draws out to train wooden sword single-handed, before Calvin has not responded, Lightning two in three fragment on the tabletop strikes the powder. 伊蒂丝笑了笑,单手拔出训练木剑,在卡尔文还未反应过来之前,闪电般将桌面上三块碎片中的两块击成粉末。 „I thought that Hawse Family and Lesta Family are the good gifts, you said that father?” “我觉得霍斯家和利斯塔家就是不错的礼物,您说呢,父亲？”
