Hereis over tendays ago battlefield-
这里是超过十天之前的战场-In the air seems to be also filling a lightgunsmokeflavor-, even if in the winter, the corpsealsodeferred to the Brandostrictrequestto clean up, the plague of spreadwas notjokes, thatfeared that isdayyoungster that the weatherwas coldis not willingto take onthisrisk.
空气中似乎还弥漫着一股淡淡的硝烟的味道-纵使是冬天,死尸也按照布兰多严格的要求清理过了,蔓延的瘟疫不是闹着玩的,那怕是天气冷下来的日子年轻人也不愿意担这个风险。Thereforeat this momentbesides the bloodstain in openopen area, clothesarmorand that the weapon debrisonly thenin the lawnsscattersoccasionallycanshow that herehad had a frigidfight.
因此此刻除了开阔的空地上的血迹之外,就只有草地之间偶尔散落的衣甲、武器碎片能够证明这里曾经发生过一场惨烈的战斗。Butsometypesteadily the birds of gray-blackfeather- is the common blackbirdor the raven, fromlow altitudepassing over gently and swiftlybattlefield. North winddrearier, the weatherday by dayhas becomedrierandcold.
而某种长着灰黑色羽毛的鸟类-是乌鸫或者渡鸦,从低空掠过战场。北风越加萧瑟,天气已经一天比一天变得更加干燥与寒冷起来。Becauselackspriest, Brandohas toprocess the corpsewith a simplerway.
因为缺乏祭祀,布兰多不得不用更加简单的方式来处理尸体。
The severalblackcolumns of smoke of horizonare the certificate, the mist and dustcrosssky over the forest, probably the Judgment Dayscene is the same. When severalscoutenteredthisformer daysbattlefieldcautiously, could not bearrespectivelylooked atsouthernhorizonblackcolumn of smokeonefearful and apprehensive.
天边的几道黑色烟柱就是证明,烟尘越过森林上空,像是末日的景象一样。几个斥候小心翼翼地进入这个旧日的战场时,各自忍不住心惊胆战地看了南方天际的黑色烟柱一眼。Theysquat, inspects the battlefieldcarefully, thenstands, look at each other in blank dismay.
他们蹲下去,仔细检查战场,然后又站起来,面面相觑。Theyfrom the Pallas'scout, since obtaining the news of Knight Minteyedisastrous defeat, travels day and nightto come here- tostartthemnot to believe,rioterthathas that bigability.
他们是来自帕拉斯的探子,自从得到敏泰爵士惨败的消息之后就日夜兼程来到这里-以开始他们并不相信,暴民那有那么大能耐。Buttheypass throughKnight Minteye when led, discoveredwith amazement the territory of thatKnighthad been seizedbyanothergroup of people. Inthemsomepeoplehad seenthesepeople- thatisnamed‚Amber Sword’Mercenary Company, theyonceledonegroup of refugeesto cross the border lineseveralmonths ago, said that mustopen up virgin soiltowilderness.
可是他们经过敏泰爵士的原领时,惊讶地发现那位爵士的领地已经被另一帮人占领了。他们中有人曾经见过那些人-那是一个叫做‘琥珀之剑’的佣兵团,他们在几个月前曾经带领一群难民越过边境线,说是要到蛮荒之中去拓荒。Transmitsabouttheseperson of finalnewsstaysinPort Griess, but how god knowstheywill return tohere.
关于这些人最后的消息传来是停留在格里斯港,但天知道他们怎么会又返回了这里。But the doubts of scoutactuallymustexplainverysimply, becauseBrandoknows that Knight Minteyewill leaveto attackFir Tree Shire. Such being the case, frequenting each otheris impolite, heingiving the Druidsletter/believeshas requestedRed Copper DragonLetoto lead the personto cross the Pattenwildernessimmediately, waited forKnight Minteyeto leaveto copyhisdenimmediately.
但斥候们的疑惑其实要解答非常简单,因为布兰多知道敏泰爵士会动身攻击冷杉领。既然如此,你来我往也不客气,他在给德鲁伊们的信上就已经要求赤铜龙雷托立刻带人越过帕顿荒野,等待敏泰爵士一动身就立刻抄了他的老巢。PitifulKnight Minteyehas not thoughtfrom the startonegroup of rioterssowill be bold, thereforein factfromwarfrom the beginningthisKnightSirsuffers a loss. Naturallyhedoes not know the circumstances of the matter, whenheknows the circumstances of the matter, hehas become the Brando'scaptive.
可怜敏泰爵士压根就没想到一群暴民会如此大胆,因此事实上从战争的一开始这位爵士大人就吃了个大亏。当然他本人并不知情,等他知情的时候,他就已经成了布兰多的阶下囚了。Butscoutdo not knowthesedetails, theydetectedarmyby the scoutuniquekeeninstinct, thentheyhastilyleft the Knight Minteyeterritory, the starry nighttravelled at double speedto go southto cross the Greese River, before arriving atthispiecesoon, hadon the land of war.
但斥候们并不知道这些细节,他们只是以探子特有的敏锐本能地察觉了部队,然后他们匆匆离开了敏泰爵士的领地,星夜兼程南下越过格里斯河,来到这片不久之前还发生了大战的土地上。Naturally the wars in theirheart, according to the Brando'swords, are called‚the villagelevelfighting’.
当然他们心中的大战,按照布兰多的话来说,叫做‘村庄级械斗’。Brando of experienceexcessivelytruewar, said that the honest remarkcan'tdefeatKnight Minteyeto be worriedforoneself, this is also whyhedaresto letFire Ground BattlegroupHead CommanderFernandKalungoes to the commandreason.
见识过真正大战的布兰多,说实在话从来就没有为自己能不能战胜敏泰爵士而担心过,这也是为什么他敢放手让火地战团大团长弗恩与克伦希亚去指挥的原因。HoweverBrandoalsounderstands,thenperhapswill have a fierce battle.
不过布兰多也明白,接下来恐怕会有一场恶战。But the end of this momentthisfierce battlelead wire, grasps, intheseonscout that sneaks the youngsterterritory-
而此刻这恶战引线的一端,就握在这几个潜入年轻人领地的斥候身上-„Hearsayreal.”
“传闻是真的。”scoutafterinspectingall around, sets out, saidtoothercompanions: „Knight Minteyehas defeated, moreoveris the disastrous defeat.”
一个斥候在检查完四周之后,直起身来,对其他同伴说道:“敏泰爵士已经败了,而且是惨败。”Everyonecalms down.
所有人都静了下来。Althoughtheyhave expectedthisresult, since newsrecently of Knight Minteyedisastrous defeathas spreadin the Greese Riverboth banks, soon, will pass toSirPallasin the ear.
虽然他们早已料到这个结果,敏泰爵士惨败的消息最近一段时间以来已经在格里斯河两岸传开,想必用不了多久,就会传到帕拉斯大人耳中。Butthey first stepconfirmedthisnews, could not bearin the heartbe scared.
可他们先一步证实这个消息,还是忍不住心中发毛。
The vision of everyone goes among oneselfthisgroup of peoplemostto haveonthatveteran who experience, isstartstalking, thatample experiencescoutthinks, said:
每个人的目光都投向自己这群人当中最有经验、也是开口说话的那个老兵身上,那个经验丰富的斥候想了一下,说道:„Passes onimportantly the news, thismatteris a little strange, Idoscout is so long, had not heardthereriotersofierce-”helooked atone: „Thisis an ambush.”
“把消息传回去最重要,这个事情有点诡异,我干斥候这么久,还没听说过那里的暴民如此厉害的-”他四下看了一眼:“这是一场伏击。”„Ambush?”
“伏击?”„Iheard that CaglissCaptainalsoattendedthiswar.”scout said that hismouth the son in CaglissKnight Minteye-, ifyourmemoryis goodenough, youremember that thisyoungsterhad donea period of timeinPallashand/subordinate.
“我听说卡格利斯队长也参加了这次战争。”一个斥候说道,他口中的卡格利斯正是敏泰爵士的儿子-如果你记忆力够好,你会记得这个年轻人曾经在帕拉斯手下干过一段时间。Butin factandnot onlyso.
但事实上并不仅仅如此。Caglisshas not blown own horn, becausePallasdo not have the heir, hethisyoungsterhas regarded, ifoneselfleaves, teachestohe himselfcompleteexperienceinwar. But the performance of youngsterhas not disappointedthisoldKnight, infightwithmountain peoplehedisplaysoutstandingly, has the extremelyhighreputationinPallashand/subordinate.卡格利斯并没有自吹自擂,因为帕拉斯自己没有子嗣,他一直把这个年轻人视若己出,传授给他自己在战争中的全部经验。而年轻人的表现并没有让这位老骑士失望,在与山民的战斗中他表现杰出,在帕拉斯手下享有极高的声誉。Ishemustturn toYour HighnessPrincess Gryphine, afterthisoldKnightagreement. Pallasoneself, althoughis loyaltoCount of Radnor, butactually the innermost feelings are actually partial toroyalist, hehopes that ownthispasses on the disciple to step ontoto assist the Aouinebeginning of the first day of the yearto move toward the revival the path.
就是他要去投靠格里菲因公主殿下,也是经过这位老骑士同意的。帕拉斯本人虽然对让德内尔伯爵忠贞不二,但其实内心却更偏向王党,他希望自己这位亲传弟子能走上辅佐埃鲁因正朔走向复兴的道路。Thatscoutsaid,somedoubtssupplementedone: „HowCaglissCaptainwill be ambushed, heleadsourtimes, wemaynot haveonetimeworking as that has gotten uptheseslymountain people.”
那个斥候说完,有些疑惑地补充了一句:“卡格利斯队长怎么会被人伏击,他带领我们的时候,我们可没有一次上过那些狡猾的山民的当。”scoutare silent, thismatter is really extremelystrange.斥候们沉默下来,这事儿实在是太过诡异。Butthatveteranbeckons with the hand: „Ihave a suggestion, wefan out in two groups, on the one handyoubringto go backtoSirPallasletter/believes. On the one handwecontinueto go forward, lookstoFir City, tries one's luck-”
但那个老兵摆了摆手:“我有一个建议,我们兵分两路,一方面你们把信儿给帕拉斯大人带回去。一方面我们继续前进,到冷杉城看一下,碰碰运气-”„Thiswas too risky.”Youngscoutsaid.
“这太冒险了。”一个年轻的斥候说道。„Does not havescout is not risky.” The veteransbeckon with the hand: „Heremypositionis highest, listening tometo order, youwent back, keeptwopeopleandIare OKtogether.”
“没有斥候不冒险的。”老兵一摆手:“这里我职位最高,听我命令,你们都回去,留两个人和我一起就可以了。”scoutlisten tothisorder, looked atonerespectively, theywere not worriedoneselfwill encounterwhatdanger, theyarePallaselitehand/subordinate. Howeversincetheyhave gone south, the matteris passingonesharemysteriousflavor, thismakesthemhave the meaning of flinching for the first time.斥候们听完这个命令,各自看了一眼,他们并不担心自己会遇到什么危险,他们都是帕拉斯手下的精锐。不过自从他们南下以来,整件事都透着一股子神秘的味道,这让他们第一次产生退缩之意。
......
……scoutdisputedoutside the forest, butin the forestFernandKalunlooked atonemutually, thentheyturn head, saw that todayredrobeyoungsteris sittingon a not far awayrock, one sideTroglodyteTribe LeaderTajivis somewhat dreadinglooks atCiel.斥候们在森林外争执,而森林内弗恩与克伦希亚互相看了一眼,然后他们回过头去,看到今天一袭红色长袍的年轻人正坐在不远处一块岩石上,一旁穴居人族长塔吉卜正有些畏惧地看着夏尔。Thisyoungwizardspellcovered uptheyseveralpeople of auracompletely, even ifwisescoutcould not discovertheirtrail. Otherwiseinthisdistance, Fernhas really not been ableto affirm that severalample experiencescoutcandetectanything.
这位年轻的巫师的法术完全遮掩了他们几人的气息,纵使再高明的斥候也发现不了他们的踪迹。否则在这个距离上,弗恩还真不敢肯定那几个经验丰富的斥候会不会察觉什么。Hewhen the Callascavalry regimentassumes office, has seenscout in manyarmy, sometimesevenhewill also fill a position ofsuch1-2scoutsascavalryoccasionally.
他在卡拉苏骑兵团任事时,见过不少军中的斥候,甚至有时候他作为骑兵自己偶尔也会充任那么1-2探子。Howeverprobablyoutsidethatseveralscoutare so experienced, hehas also only seeninsharpestseveralbattalion.
不过像是外面那几个斥候那么老练的,他也只在最精锐的几个大队里见过而已。ThatabsolutelyisgreatElite.
那绝对是一等一的精英。Howeverwhatcomparesto makehissurprisedis the Ciel'sstatus, he came from Callas, has naturally seenthesemysteriousHighland Wizard. He100%canconfirm,Cielwiththese people are humanoid, theirbodieshavesameaura- high groundandBlack Towersmell.
不过相比起来更让他惊讶的是夏尔的身份,他来自卡拉苏,自然见过那些神秘的高地巫师。他百分之百可以确认,夏尔和那些人是一类人,他们身上有着一样的气息-高地与黑塔的气味。HeheardBrandoisHighland Knight, butat this momenthecannot help buta littlebelieved. CanhaveMagister Levelwizardto takeSquireHighland Knight?
他听人说布兰多是高地骑士,而这一刻他不由自主地有点相信了。可拥有一个导师级巫师作为扈从的高地骑士?What is thatexists?
那是什么存在?
In the Fernbrainsomeconfusions, Kalunactuallyagaingoing to the vision outside grovereceives: „Courageis really bigenough.”
在弗恩脑子里有些混乱的时候,克伦希亚却已经再一次把投向林子外的目光收回来:“胆子真够大的。”Whathesaidisoutsidethesescout.
他说的是外面那些斥候。Thesescouthave fanned out in two groups, goes toFir City, preparesto go northto return toPallas. Theybid good-byeoutside the grove, the formdisappearedin the main roadtwoheadsquickly.
那些斥候已经兵分两路,一路前往冷杉城,一路准备北上回到帕拉斯。他们在林子外分手,身影很快消失在了大道两头。„Hey,”Ciellooks atthatdirection, the eyebrowliftsslightly- his looklooked likeBrando, Brandointhisyoungwizardheartcould be said as the most outstandingmaster- was as deep as a well, probablyanythingknows.
“嘿,”夏尔看着那个方向,眉尖微微一抬-他这个神色像极了布兰多,在这位年轻的巫师心中布兰多可说是一个最优秀的主人-高深莫测,好像什么都知道。Hehas deliberately been imitatingBrando'severy action and every movementrecently, alreadysomeindications of cultivation deviation. Howeverheself-ridiculedimmediatelysmiled: „Cagliss? Withoutthinking ofthatlittle fellow is so unexpectedly famousinPallasscout , did hequarreldailymustinsomeduelwithyou, the could it be thattwoSirshave no idea?”
他最近一直在刻意模仿布兰多的一举一动,已经有些走火入魔的征兆。不过他随即又自嘲地笑了一下:“卡格利斯?没想到那小家伙竟然在帕拉斯手下的斥候中都这么有名,他天天吵着要和你们中的某一位决斗,难道两位大人就没什么想法吗?”Fern and Kaluncomplexionimmediatelybecomesstrange.弗恩与克伦希亚的脸色立刻变得古怪起来。On the same day to the Knight Minteyeambush warfare, theycreatedin a big waytroublesomeisthatyoungsternamedCagliss. The opposite partyanalyzed that the battlefieldskill is really not a lid, Fern that even the veterancomesacclaimedincomparably, theycaptured alive the Knight Minteyewordsfinally, perhapsreallythatyoungsterhaving a bloody road.
当天在对敏泰爵士的伏击战中,给他们造成了最大麻烦的就是那个叫做卡格利斯的年轻人。对方判断战场的本事真不是盖的,连老兵出身的弗恩都赞叹无比,要不是最后他们活捉了敏泰爵士的话,说不定真叫那个年轻人给杀出一条血路。Howeverinitially was also Ciellooked atTiger Sparrow, Fern and jokes of Kalunthesethreeold seniorsintentionally, theywere vouching to sayinitiallydo not have the issue, finallyin the endactuallyhad/left the funnel.
不过当初也是夏尔成心看虎雀、弗恩与克伦希亚这三个老前辈的笑话,他们当初打着包票说没问题,结果到头来却出了漏子。Otherwise the Cielpersonallymake a movewords, Cagliss is winged the little darling is also captured.
否则夏尔亲自出手的话,卡格利斯就是长了翅膀也得乖乖就擒。Howeverbecause of this, thatyoungsterhad not been convincedto the present, althoughhehas not saidanythingto start over from the beginningthisweakwordsassoldier, butstillshoutsindungeonmustwithKalunandTiger Sparroworbe the Fernduel.
不过正因为如此,那个年轻人一直到现在还不服气,虽然他作为一名军人没有说出什么从头再来过这种幼稚的话,但仍旧在地牢里嚷嚷着要和克伦希亚、虎雀或者是弗恩决斗。Swordsmanship of thisboy is also exquisiteincomparable, Kalunhuggedis teaching an opposite partyidearesultnot to think that ateinvisible losses, since thenTiger Sparrow, FernandKaluntodungeonnearbyaroundwalking, so as to avoidprovokesawkwardly.
偏偏这小子的剑术也是精湛无比,克伦希亚本来抱着去教训对方一顿的想法结果没想到吃了个暗亏,从此虎雀、弗恩、克伦希亚到了地牢附近都绕着走,免得招惹尴尬。CielinitiallyandBrandosaid that has the little fellowto needhimto educate, in factsaidisthisyoungster.夏尔当初和布兰多说有小家伙需要他来教育,事实上说的就是这个年轻人。Saw that twoHead Commanderfacial colorskeep silentstrangely, youngstershows a faint smileto shake the head: „Howthereforeyoudo planto handlethismatter?”
看到两个大团长面色古怪不言不语,年轻人微微一笑摇摇头:“所以你们打算怎么处理这件事?”Heshifts the topic, referred tooutside.
他转移话题,指了指外面。„Howto process?” The middle-aged person of silver hairlooks atCielwith the vision of inquiry.
“怎么处理?”银发的中年人用询问的目光看着夏尔。Threepeopletalkedas ifneglectednearbyTajiv, thismadethisTroglodyteTribe Leadersomewhatdiscontented- said that initiallyitspersondiscoveredscout that thesesubmerged, immediatelyinformedthesehuman.
三个人交谈似乎忽视了一旁的塔吉卜,这让这位穴居人族长有些不满-说起来当初还是它的人发现了这些潜入的斥候,第一时间通知了这些人类。
Since howeverCielhas not crossednotpleasantTroglodyteTribe Leaderto forgetthisthese daysobviously, hefirstnodstoTajiv: „Naturally, thismatter first Tajivmerit, howas fordoes- thatseveralgo toourdomains, mustcatchthem, howas to process, thatis the Lord Thane'smatter-”
不过夏尔显然并没有把这个这些日子以来过得不太如意的穴居人族长忘了,他首先对塔吉卜点点头:“当然,这件事首先还是塔吉卜的功劳,至于怎么做-那几个前往我们的地盘的,得把他们抓起来,至于怎么处理,那是领主大人的事情-”Tajivlistened tothrowing out the chest.塔吉卜听了挺了挺胸。„Other?”Fernknits the browsto ask, listens to the Ciel'smeaning, is to bleed offthesescout that goes backto notify.
“其他的呢?”弗恩皱眉问道,听夏尔的意思,是要放走那些回去报信的斥候。Cielnods: „Putsthemto walk, thisis the Lord Thane'smeaning.”夏尔点点头:“放他们走,这是领主大人的意思。”Meaning of thatyoungster?
那个年轻人的意思?FernandKalunlooked atonemutually, whatthatyoung is noblewantsto make? Putsthesescout, is absolutely possibleto arouse the Pallas'vigilance, then what happened, thismaywho unable to reach an agreement.弗恩与克伦希亚互相看了一眼,那个年轻的贵族是想要做什么?把那些斥候放回去,完全有可能引起帕拉斯的警觉,那么接下来会发生什么事情,这可谁都说不好。ButCielhad not replied that thisissue, hewas onlyraises headwatchedweather- thought,it seems likethis timeone's ownLord Thanemustplayonein a big waytime.
但夏尔却并没有回答这个问题,他只是抬起头看了看天色-心想,看来这一次自己的领主大人是要玩一次大的。
