Your Majesty, do you plan to dispatch troops to go on a punitive expedition against Extreme Southern Region now?” The Iron Axe always calm facial features presented the rare excitement, may Months of Demons probably arrive immediately......” 陛下,您打算现在出兵征伐极南境么?”铁斧一向沉稳的面容出现了罕有的激动,“可邪月马上就要到来了……” You thought how many people Neverwinter City leaves behind, can deal with Evil Beast that comes in swarms?” “你觉得无冬城留下多少人,可以应付蜂拥而来的邪兽?” This......” his took a deep breath, the excited facial expression will depress forcefully, „, if according to the previous year of scale, 1000 people can defend the city wall.” “这……”他深吸口气,将激动的神情强行压下,“如果按照前一年的规模来看,1000人就能守住城墙。” Therefore, leaves behind 2500 soldiers to have more than enough to spare for conservative, let alone was newer a number of the preparation armies to start to recruit, defended Neverwinter City not to have what issue.” Roland stands up, arrives at the window, I with saying the Extreme Southern Region matter, you should most be familiar with there person.” “所以为了保守起见,留下2500名士兵应该是绰绰有余,更何况新一批预备部队已经开始招募了,保卫无冬城没有什么问题。”罗兰站起身,走到落地窗边,“我跟说说极南境的事吧,你应该是最熟悉那里的人了。” Yes, Your Majesty!” Iron Axe good military salute, „the Extreme Southern Region most land is the yellow sand, the oasis spreads following Silver River west of the desert, over 90% Mojin people live in these oases. On the biggest oasis constructs a city, is in Extreme Southern Region only city-- Iron Sand City.” “是,陛下!”铁斧行了个军礼,“极南境大半土地都是黄沙,绿洲顺着银川散布在沙漠以西,九成以上的莫金人都生活在这些绿洲中。最大的绿洲上建有一座城池,也是极南境里唯一的一所城市——铁砂城。” „Is Silver River the strip rivers?” 银川是条河流?” It can only calculate that half rivers,” Iron Axe answered, majority of times, it buried in underground, was ordinary like the underground river of the netherworld, reveals the part of ground to form the oasis, therefore the Mojin person also took it as the river of life.” “它只能算半条河流,”铁斧解释道,“大部分时候,它都埋在地底,就像地底冥河一般,露出地面的部分都形成了绿洲,因此莫金人也把它称作生命之河。” Roland has turned around, the curious say/way, „does it originate from where? I looked from the map, nearby does not have the mountain, does not have the lake.” 罗兰转过身,好奇道,“它发源自哪里?我从地图上看,附近并没有高山,也没有湖泊。” It came from the sea, is the sea god gracious gift, before” Iron Axe arrives at the table, is pointing at the Extreme Southern Region west side and green space attachment point, here has a giant limestone cave, the sea water that winds through flows in backward toward the hole in unceasingly, stands can feel the sole to tremble above.” “它源自大海,是海神的恩赐,”铁斧走到桌前,指着极南境西侧与绿地的连接处,“这里有一处巨大的溶洞,流过的海水不断往洞中倒灌,站在上面可以感受到脚底都在震颤。” You said, the sea water is the Silver River source? But it can breed the oasis obviously.” “你是说,海水就是银川的源头?但它明明能孕育绿洲。” Can breed the oasis, explained that Silver River is a salinity of Tamsui River-- sea water is too high, is unable to be used to irrigate and drink, this sounds not to gather the common sense completely. 能孕育绿洲,就说明银川是一条淡水河——海水的盐分过高,根本无法用于灌溉和饮用,这听起来完全不合常理。 „The mother of earth has absorbed the salinity in sea water, that area completely flood white salt end, isolates the Greycastle's green space. When needs to use the salt, so long as raises a pail, went to the ground to scoop up then it will be alright.” “大地之母吸收了海水中的盐分,那一片地区全部泛着白色的盐末,也把灰堡的绿地隔绝开来。需要用盐时,只要提一个桶子,去地上舀就行了。” Is this clever axe finger of God in nature? The soil under yellow sand has filtered the salinity unexpectedly, but also has formed the saline? Roland expressed admiration, it seems like besides the petroleum, he were also many natural resource that has needed to collect. 这算是大自然的鬼斧神工么?黄沙下的泥土居然过滤了盐分,还形成了盐碱地?罗兰啧啧称奇,看来除了石油外,他又多了一块需要采集的资源 How many people in Iron Sand City is occupied by?” 铁砂城里住着多少人?” „About 40,000.” “40000左右。” Unexpectedly is older than Kingdom Capital more than Greycastle?” “居然比灰堡王都还多?” Your Majesty, the Sandpeople city is different from the kingdom capital city,” Iron Axe smiled, Iron Sand City, only then a core city, for six clan's ruler housings, again the surrounding basically is the tent or the bushes one-story house, one layer upon layer expands, gradually has formed present appearance--, so long as enters the oasis the range, even if entered the Iron Sand City territory.” 陛下,沙民的城市和王国都城并不一样,”铁斧笑了笑,“铁砂城只有一个核心城区,供六个氏族的掌权者居住,再外围基本就是帐篷或茅草平房,一层层扩建下来,逐渐形成了如今的模样——只要进入绿洲的范围,就算是进入了铁砂城领地。” „Does that live in the Mojin people of other oases? Should their quantity be also many?” Roland asked. The population is whether fast to transform local special as available natural resource key, he is unlikely to dispatch large quantities of manpower to mine the petroleum from Neverwinter City, in the end must work for oneself using the local person. “那居住在其他绿洲的莫金人呢?他们数量应该也不少吧?”罗兰问。人口是能否快速将当地特产转化为可用资源的关键,他不大可能从无冬城调遣大批人手去开采石油,到头来还得利用本地人为自己效力。 The commander-in-chief nods, nobody has counted, but I estimated that at least has 100,000 people.” 总指挥点点头,“没人统计过,但我估计至少有100000人。” Then established several mining to stand with a traffic line should suffice, how the following issue then controlled them. 那么建立数个开采站和一条运输线应该是够了,接下来的问题便是如何控制他们。 Was right, sacred duel that your previous time said what's the matter? How is the Mojin person the definite sovereignty?” “对了,你上次说的神圣决斗是怎么回事?莫金人是如何确定统治权的?” This Iron Axe answer is very careful, almost said a half hour, Roland has ravelled the Sandpeople authority contention way. 这一次铁斧回答十分细致,差不多说了半个小时,罗兰才算弄明白了沙民的权力角逐方式。 One side the Clan internal promotion puts first, advocates the military force foreigner person to these, the formidable strength is only the trustworthy thing. The Iron Sand City ruling circles are usually constituted by six Clan, they are not ten thousand world a department, but competes by own strength. However to avoid each Clan because of fighting for power and profit to kill the rivers of blood, causing the ethnic group to deal with the outside danger the strength to weaken, picks up a small number to carry on the duel as the representative has become not two choices. 氏族内部的晋升先放一边,对这些崇尚武力异族人来说,强大的实力是唯一值得信赖的东西。铁砂城的统治阶层通常由六个氏族构成,他们并非万世一系,而是凭借自身实力争夺出来的。不过为了避免各个氏族因争权夺利而杀得血流成河,导致族群应对外界危险的力量减弱,挑出少部分人作为代表进行决斗就成了不二的选择。 Gradually, this custom was approved by all Sandpeople, and has entrusted with sacred meaning-- resident Iron Sand City big Clan, small Clan that in the oasis is born, must observe the result of sacred duel. The person of any tarnish duel, must encounter spurning of all Sandpeople. 久而久之,这个规矩被所有沙民所认同,并且赋予了神圣的意味——无论是常驻铁砂城的大氏族,还是绿洲里诞生的小氏族,都必须遵守神圣决斗的结果。任何玷污决斗的人,必会遭到所有沙民的唾弃。 Mojin person highest is ruler Clan Head of various clans?” The Roland puzzled say/way, you do not have Great Chief and so on character?” “难道莫金人最高掌权者就是各族的族长么?”罗兰不解道,“你们就没有大酋长之类的人物?” Big...... Chief?” “大……酋长?” Can series all clan's leaders, be similar to Greycastle's King.” “就是能一统所有氏族的领导者,类似于灰堡的国王。” This......” Iron Axe hesitant, among Clan spreads a view, wish has made all Sandpeople submit, only then two way-- one are to obtain the affirmation and blessing of Three Gods, another can open the broad boundless oasis for the ethnic group, eliminates dust storm that blocks the sky, making Sandpeople be far away from the threat of hunger and thirst and death.” “这个……”铁斧犹豫了下,“氏族间流传过一种说法,想要让所有沙民臣服,只有两条途径——一个是得到三神的肯定与祝福,另一个是能为族群开辟出广阔无际的绿洲,消除遮天蔽日的沙暴,使沙民远离饥渴与死亡的威胁。” Affirmation of Three Gods...... How this can calculate?” Roland knits the brows to say. 三神的肯定……这个要怎么算?”罗兰皱眉道。 Offers the corresponding sacrificial offering in Burning Lands to Three Gods then, is controls the earth iron shell giant scorpion, to govern extremely the alone corner/horn sea beast of Southern sea corner/horn separately, as well as dominates the sky Four Wings Eagle.” Iron Axe paused, these three wild animals mysteriously appeared and disappeared, have claimed the lives of countless person, but some people had never found their lair, the bait and trap did not have an effect-- I even to guess that they might be Evil Beast Hybrid(s), had the most basic wisdom.” “在灼火之地三神献上相应的祭品即可,分别是主宰大地的铁甲巨蝎、掌管极南海角的独角海兽、以及称霸天空的四翼雄鹰。”铁斧顿了顿,“这三只野兽神出鬼没,夺走了无数人的性命,但从未有人找到过它们的巢穴,诱饵和陷阱更是不起作用——我甚至猜测它们有可能是混合种邪兽,已经拥有了最基本的智慧。” Two conditions are not both good to realize, especially the second type, can make the desert grow the oasis, almost approached the strength of gods. Roland cannot help but was lost in thought that if makes Echo remount the position of Clan Head, reported the five years ago enmity of framing, did not have the big help to integration entire Extreme Southern Region. Although six Clan status are able to discriminate, the direct membership, has not actually left these to scatter Sandpeople in oasis. Must think that means that becomes by oneself Mojin Clan Great Chief is good. 两个条件都不好实现,特别是第二种,能让沙漠长出绿洲,差不多已接近神明之力了。罗兰不由得陷入了沉思,如果只是让回音重登族长之位,报五年前的陷害之仇,对统合整个极南境也没有多大的帮助。虽然六个氏族地位有别,却并没有直接的从属关系,更别那些散落在绿洲里的沙民了。得想一个办法,让自己成为莫金族大酋长才行。 The matter that moreover the sacred duel must consider, First Army could defeat the Iron Sand City guard easily accomplished, but wish lets the Sandpeople aware obedience rule, perhaps is not easy. 另外神圣决斗也是必须考虑的事情,第一军或许能摧枯拉朽般的击败铁砂城卫队,但想要让沙民自觉服从统治,恐怕就没那么容易了。 Most appropriate method, the custom that sets using Mojin Clan realizes the annexation plan. 最合适的方法,还是利用莫金族自己定下的规矩来实现吞并计划。 „When duel can invite the person of other families to go on stage?” “决斗时能邀请外族的人上场吗?” This point does not have the issue,” the Iron Axe affirmation said, I am a person of mixed blood, but can still replace Brave Sand Clan to attend the duel. In fact, the fierce wrestler regular session receives major clan's welcome, after this is also only hopes-- that small Clan turns over/stands up Dheri, if can present 34 formidables, hopeful takes a good position in the sacred duel.” “这一点没有问题,”铁斧肯定道,“我是一名混血儿,但依然可以代替傲沙氏族参加决斗。事实上,勇猛的角斗士常会受到各大氏族的欢迎,这也是小氏族翻身的唯一希望——后代里若能出现34名勇者,就有希望在神圣决斗中拿下一个较好的名次。” Yes?” Roland shows a faint smile, „, since were this is easier to do.” “是么?”罗兰微微一笑,“既然是这样就好办多了。”
