When the night falls, the heavy snow stopped finally. 夜幕降临之时,大雪终于停了。 But this does not mean most unendurable time has passed. 但这并不意味着最难熬的时候已经过去。 In fact, snowing time is not cold, after the snow, is the true fearfulness. 实际上,下雪的时候不算冷,雪后才是真正的可怕。 Under the order of Marquis Garcia, rode the army to pitch camp black, lives the bonfire. 在加西亚侯爵的命令下,黑骑军就地扎营,生起了篝火。 Does not roast warms by a fire, eats hot, perhaps this army must present the non-combatant personnel losses. 再不烤烤火,吃点热乎的,恐怕这支军队就要出现非战斗减员了。 Colin has not gone to the crowded tent, but shrinks under the belly of warhorse, roasts alone catches fire. 柯林没去挤营帐,而是缩在战马的肚子下面,独自烤着火。 Actually in tent not compared with barrel under warm many . Moreover, a person is more comfortable. 其实营帐里面也没有比马腹下面暖和多少,而且,一个人还自在些。 At least, he drinks the matter of blood is not seen the clue by others. 至少,他喝血的事情不会被别人看出端倪。 The blood is the fox blood, a having bad luck snow fox that before he caught was left over. 血是狐血,之前他逮到的一只倒霉雪狐存下的。 Naturally, Colin drinks the blood at the same time, puts out the hard dried meat to gnaw several, so as to avoid makes one discover oneself do not eat normal food. 当然,柯林喝血的同时,也拿出硬邦邦的肉干啃几口,免得让人发现自己不吃正常食物。 He is eating and drinking, while words that thought beforehand Marquis Garcia to speak. 他一边吃喝着,一边想着之前加西亚侯爵所说的话。 At that time Colin has not understood what is heard, but the marquis did not have the detailed explanation. 当时柯林就没怎么听明白,但侯爵也没有详细解释。 Colin has not closely examined, after all cannot anything ask that will appear his student to be a little silly. 柯林也没有追问,毕竟总不能啥都问,那会显得他这个学生有点傻。 Right, this little while Colin has posed as the Marquis Garcia student. 没错,这会儿柯林已经以加西亚侯爵的学生自居了。 In he is thinking deeply about the Marquis Garcia true intention, a form collected. 就在他思索着加西亚侯爵的真正意图时,一个身影凑了过来。 „Can come to select the liquor?” “要不要来点酒？” Taking advantage of the flame, Colin saw clearly came the person. 借着火光,柯林看清了来人。 Is flange Count Dawson. 是法兰・道森伯爵。 „Naturally!” Colin in the hand received the liquor pouch from Count Dawson, filled a big mouth. “当然！”柯林从道森伯爵手中接过酒囊,灌了一大口。 Gets down, as if braves to be on fire to the stomach from the throat, that taste, the whole person was energetic. 一口下去,从喉到胃仿佛都冒起了火,那滋味,整个人都精神了。 „Crisp! Nice wine!” “爽！好酒！” Count Dawson laughs, happily said: „That natural, the strong liquor of our dwarf do not dare saying that is the empire is best, but absolutely is most energetic! Especially suits in this damn weather drinks!” 道森伯爵哈哈大笑,得意道:“那当然,我们矮人的烈酒不敢说是帝国最好的,但绝对是最带劲的！尤其适合在这种该死的天气里喝！” Compared with the five big races of this world's mainstream, the dwarf, is not considered as that a big influence. 跟这个世界主流的五大种族比起来,矮人,并不算是一个大势力。 They reside across the brilliance empire, total number of people probably also about 1 million. 他们分布在光辉帝国各地,总人数大概也就一百万左右。 Because the strength is not strong, therefore the dwarf has closely grasped the thigh of person of clan, poses as the dependency race of person clan. 正因为实力不强,所以矮人一直都紧紧抱住人族的大腿,以人族的附庸种族自居。 Even, some hearsay said, the dwarf is actually the subspecies of human. 甚至,还有一些传闻说,矮人其实是人类的亚种。 However, this view has not obtained many approvals. 不过,这个说法并没有得到多少认同。 Because, the dwarf is unable like human, to accept the baptism of teaching the pastor to become the knight. 因为,矮人无法像人类一样,接受教会牧师的洗礼而成为骑士。 Moreover the knight, is the exclusive occupation of person clan. 而且骑士,正是人族的专属职业。 Although dwarves to integrate human to declare the lord of belief brilliance well, but obviously, the lord of brilliance has not granted these dwarves his glory. 虽然矮人们为了更好地融入人类一直宣称信仰光辉之主,但显然,光辉之主并没有将他的荣耀赐予这些矮人们。 Therefore, the soldier of rotten avenue also becomes the occupation that the dwarves may choose only. 于是,烂大街的战士也就成了矮人们唯一可选的职业。 This inborn potential restricted occupation, keeping in the dwarf from producing the true powerhouse. 这个天生潜力受限的职业,让矮人中无法产生真正的强者。 Therefore, this is not one by the military force well-known race. 所以,这不是一个以武力闻名的种族。 However, they are good at forging and wine-making. 但是,他们善于锻造和酿酒。 Especially forges, this skill makes the dwarves in the logistics department of army very popular. 尤其是锻造,这项技能让矮人们在军队的后勤部门很受欢迎。 However, the military exploit of logistics department definitely cannot compare in the officers who the frontline fights with all might, therefore, little has the dwarf to depend upon the military exploit extremely to become the aristocrat. 不过,后勤部门的军功肯定是比不上在前线拼杀的将士们,所以,极少有矮人能够依靠军功成为贵族。 Let alone Count big aristocrat. 更别说伯爵这种大贵族了。 Therefore, this Count Dawson especially was conspicuous. 所以,这位道森伯爵就格外显眼了。 But a more important point is, the position of his Count is Marquis Garcia confers rank and title. 而更重要的一点是,他的伯爵之位是加西亚侯爵册封的。 The Marquis Garcia foundation is riding the army black, his to seal/confer official also basically is the army intermediate and senior military officer. 加西亚侯爵的根基在黑骑军,他的封臣也基本都是军中高级将领。 But he actually the name position under of Count conferred to a dwarf. 但他却将自己名下的伯爵之位册封给了一个矮人。 Moreover, this is the only Count who he confers. 而且,这还是他册封的唯一一位伯爵。 This is very unusual. 这就很不寻常了。 Rode the army black is a pure cavalry army, the height of dwarf limits them to become the possibility of outstanding cavalry. 黑骑军是一支纯骑兵军队,矮人的身高就限制了他们成为优秀骑兵的可能。 Moreover, according to Colin, although Count Dawson is a soldier, but the step position is not high. 而且,据柯林了解,道森伯爵虽然是一位战士,但阶位也并不高。 Therefore, obviously what the military exploit of Count Dawson does not depend is the military force. 所以,道森伯爵的军功显然并非靠的是武力。 In rides in the army black, Count Dawson seems the Marquis Garcia shadow. 在黑骑军中,道森伯爵仿佛就是加西亚侯爵的影子。 Marquis Garcia is the soul of this army, is outwardly on flag, but Count Dawson, is the secret majordomo, is maintaining the logistics support and tedious everyday concerns of this army. 加西亚侯爵是这支军队的灵魂,是明面上的旗帜,而道森伯爵,就是幕后的大管家,维持着这支军队的后勤保障和繁琐的日常事务。 Although the work of Count Dawson is mostly obscure, but he can as dwarf, be conferred rank and title by Marquis Garcia for the Count, this can see, he regarding black the importance that rides the army. 虽然道森伯爵的工作大多默默无闻,但他能以矮人的身份,被加西亚侯爵册封为伯爵,这就可以看出,他对于黑骑军的重要性。 Therefore, after Colin enters rides the army black, besides Marquis Garcia, a person who he most pays attention, is Count Dawson. 因此,柯林进入黑骑军后,除了加西亚侯爵之外,他最为关注的一个人,就是道森伯爵。 But because of regarding with a special fondness of Marquis Garcia to Colin, is also quite warm to Colin as Count Dawson of marquis shadow. 而因为加西亚侯爵对柯林的另眼相看,作为侯爵影子的道森伯爵也对柯林颇为热情。 Therefore, two people also wind gradually ripe. 于是,两人也渐渐熟络起来。 This little while, Colin shrinks with Count Dawson under the barrel, person of liquor is drinking, simultaneously is chatting all over the country. 这会儿,柯林跟道森伯爵缩在马腹下面,一人一口酒地喝着,同时天南海北地侃着大山。 Count Dawson follows Marquis Garcia expedition half a lifetime, various great storms have experienced, boasts has gone smoothly everywhere. 道森伯爵跟着加西亚侯爵征战半生,各种大风大浪都经历过,吹起牛来一直都是无往不利。 But he has not thought, this time made Colin this boy snatching the crest of wave unexpectedly. 但他没想到,这次居然让柯林这小子给抢了风头。 Colin changed external appearances only to tell that various fairy stories in another world listened directly to Count Dawson, fooled dumbfounded this dwarf Count. 柯林直接将另一个世界里的各种神话故事改头换面说给道森伯爵听,把这位矮人伯爵唬得一愣一愣的。 When Count Dawson closely examines him where from looks like these stories the time, Colin rambled on was in childhood ash Town a passing by recitation Poet roaming says to him listens. 等道森伯爵追问他从哪看来这些故事的时候,柯林就瞎扯说是自己小时候灰堡镇上一位路过的吟游诗人讲给他听的。 Count Dawson is not certainly able to verify, has to continue to listen to Colin to trick. 道森伯爵当然无法查证,只好继续听着柯林忽悠。 After boasted, Colin heart was greatly smooth. 一通胡吹之后,柯林心头大畅。 „I understand now why marquis Sir regarded as important you.” “我现在明白,为什么侯爵大人那么看重你了。” „Un? Why?” “恩？为什么？” „Because you can blow!” “因为你能吹啊！” Colin laughs, he knows certainly that the opposite party is cracking a joke. 柯林哈哈大笑,他当然知道对方在开玩笑。 However, his actually look moves, asks: „Count Sir, you really thought that marquis Sir is because this does regard as important my?” 不过,他却神色一动,问道:“伯爵大人,您真觉得侯爵大人是因为这个看重我的吗？” Count Dawson sees Colin complexion to be serious, then knows that the opposite party is the sincerity was asking, therefore received the complexion of joke, asked back: „Do you feel because of what?” 道森伯爵见柯林脸色郑重,便知道对方是真心在问,于是收起了玩笑的脸色,反问道:“你觉得是因为什么？” Colin filled liquor, after the thinking moment, said: 柯林灌了一口酒,思索片刻后道: „Either is because before , that fight of flowing rapidly river, either, because of Miss Vera. However...... I thought that this difference/two kinds also being insufficient does make marquis Sir look after me probably like this?” “要么是因为之前奔流河的那场战斗,要么,就是因为薇拉小姐。不过……我觉得这两样好像都还不至于让侯爵大人这样关照我吧？” Truly. 确实。 The Angelie family is St. Hilde Duke to seal/confer official, therefore Colin regarding rides army to subordinate black completely the system of Marquis Garcia, radically is a bystander. 要知道,安格列家族是圣希尔德公爵的封臣,所以柯林对于黑骑军这个完全隶属于加西亚侯爵的体系来说,根本就是一个外人。 No matter Colin reveals how splendid war talent in beforehand escape on the way, no matter how also Miss Vera has the favorable impression to him, being insufficient lets be north Marquis Garcia of boundary army god looks after his bystander like this. 不管柯林在之前的逃亡途中显露出多么出色的战争才华,也不管薇拉小姐怎么对他有好感,都还不至于让身为北境军神的加西亚侯爵这样关照他一个外人。 Dawson Count hears word, nods, then shakes the head, said mysterious: „Hehe. You later will know.” 道森伯爵闻言,点了点头,然后又摇了摇头,神秘兮兮地说道:“嘿嘿。你以后就会知道了。” A Colin depression, the reply of this hanging person appetite was most repugnant. 柯林一阵郁闷,这种吊人胃口的回答最讨厌了。 Also without he continued to closely examine, Count Dawson had shifted the topic stiffly: „You know why marquis Sir doesn't continue to trace the front that Troll army?” 还没等他继续追问,道森伯爵就已经生硬地转移了话题:“你知道侯爵大人为什么不继续追踪前面的那支巨魔大军么？” This was actually Colin a moment ago continuously the issue of ponder. 这其实是柯林刚才一直思考的问题。 Moreover also some ideas, this little while have seen Count Dawson to ask, then replied: 而且也已经有些想法了,这会儿见道森伯爵问起,便回答道: „I felt, front that Troll army should not be the target of our most first attack.” “我觉得,前方那支巨魔大军并不应该是我们最优先攻击的目标。” „That what?” “那什么才是呢？” „Wolf cavalry!” Colin puts out liquor air/Qi, said self-confidently: “狼骑兵！”柯林吐出一口酒气,自信地说道: „On this type of smooth broad icefield terrain, only then the cavalry can cope with the cavalry. Therefore, that Troll wolf cavalry rides the army only threat black. So long as found and first annihilated them, the remaining Troll armies were the lambs that treated butchers.” “在这种平坦宽阔的冰原地形上,只有骑兵才能对付骑兵。所以,那支巨魔狼骑兵才是黑骑军唯一的威胁。只要找到并优先歼灭了他们,剩下的巨魔大军就是待宰的羔羊了。” Count Dawson patted clapping, said with a smile: 道森伯爵拍了拍手,笑着称赞道: „Breese knight said right, you truly suit the battlefield inborn.” “布利斯骑士说的没错,你确实天生就适合战场。”
