„MarquisCharles?”
“查尔斯侯爵?”„MarquisCharlesis the first wife's eldest son of DukeSt. Hilde, the firstpositionsuccessor......”
“查尔斯侯爵是圣希尔德公爵的嫡长子,第一顺位继承人……”„Nonsense! Iknow certainly that whomarquisCharlesis, butwhy will hisknightappearhere? Why can also recruitusurgently?”
“废话!我当然知道查尔斯侯爵是谁,但为什么他的骑士会出现在这里?又为什么要紧急征召我们?”„Isn't marquisCharlesgoing to warwithTrollin the border? Do wewantto go to the border?”
“查尔斯侯爵不是正在边境跟巨魔打仗吗?难道我们要去边境?”„Howpossibly? Hereis so farfrom the border, even ifwill recruiturgentlywill not rush tohereto come the conscription. Moreoveryoulooked,obviouslythe one whorecruitson the commandto write is to make usgo toJing Laketo gatherin two days.”
“怎么可能?这里距离边境那么远,就算紧急征召也不会跑到这里来征兵。而且你看,征召令上面明明写的是让我们在两天内前往镜湖集合。”„Where is Jing Lakeat?”
“镜湖在哪?”„Notis farfromhere, followingthiscreektoward the northern more than 50kilometers, arrivedprobably.”
“离这里不算远,顺着这条小河往北五十多公里,大概就到了。”„Do wewantto go?”
“那我们要不要去?”„Ido not thinkon the battlefield!”
“我可不想上战场!”„But...... maythisbe the urgency of St. Hildefamilyrecruits the command!”
“可……可这是圣希尔德家族的紧急征召令啊!”„Butis notdukeSirsigns and issuespersonally.”
“但又不是公爵大人亲自签发的。”„Isn't marquisCharlesin the futurenorth the boundaryduke?”
“查尔斯侯爵将来不就是北境公爵吗?”„After that must wait tillhimin the future the realinherit title, said...... . Moreover, Ido not wantto bring death!”
“那也要等到他将来真的继承爵位之后再说……而且,我可不想去送死!”„May notdie, perhapsthisis a performing good deedsgood opportunity.”
“也不一定会死,或许这是一个建功立业的好机会呢。”„, Idiot!”
“呵,蠢货!”„Whomyouscolded!”
“你骂谁!”„HowIscoldedyouto drop!”
“我骂你咋滴!”
......
……AfterSarrurecruits the urgency of marquisCharles the commandbrings back to the camp, the peopleimmediatelyblast out the pot.
当萨鲁将查尔斯侯爵的紧急征召令带回营地后,众人立刻炸开了锅。Somepeopleagreed,somepeopleopposed, quarrelledonegroup.
有人同意,有人反对,吵成了一团。Reason thatwill havethisaspect , because thisrecruitsto makeurgentlyfrommarquisCharles, rather thanhis father, the northernboundarylordDukeSt. Hilde.
之所以会出现这种局面,是因为这道紧急征召令是来自查尔斯侯爵,而不是他的父亲,北境之主圣希尔德公爵。Charles the St. Hildemarquistitleisemptyseals, fiefdomactually, has not been onlyto the oneconfirmation of itsfirstpositionright of inheritance, was a bit liketoposition of the ancient Chinacrown prince.
查尔斯・圣希尔德的侯爵爵位是虚封的,并没有实际的封地,只是对其第一顺位继承权的一种确认而已,有点类似于中国古代的太子之位。
But the crown princestatusis honored, after all is also not the emperor.
但太子身份虽然尊贵,毕竟还不是皇帝。Therefore, if DukeSt. Hildeissued that recruits the commandurgently, the northernboundaryperson who thenanyreceives the orderdoes not dareto revolt.
所以,如果是圣希尔德公爵发布紧急征召令,那么任何接到命令的北境人都不敢反抗。But, if recruits the command that marquisCharlessigns and issuesurgently......
但,如果是查尔斯侯爵签发的紧急征召令的话……Had a lookto quarrelnowonegroup of red foxcommissionarmy corpsonobviouslyitseffectiveness.
看看现在吵成一团的火狐佣兵团就可见其效用了。„Sufficed! Shuts uptome!”Sarruroaredagitated a throat, stoppedsubordinate'squarrel.
“够了!都给我闭嘴!”萨鲁烦躁地吼了一嗓子,制止了手下人的争吵。Thenheturns the headto looktoOlive, asked: „MarquisCharleshasthispowerto issue that recruits the commandurgently?”
然后他转头看向奥利弗,问道:“查尔斯侯爵有这个权力发布紧急征召令吗?”„Iremember,marquisCharlesshouldnot havesuchpower......”Olivesome is not indefinite, turns the headto seek helpto sayfromColin, „Kannknight, Isaidright?”
“我记得,查尔斯侯爵应该没有这样的权力……”奥利弗有些不确定,转头向柯林求助道,“卡恩骑士,我说的对吗?”„According to the legal principle theory of law, marquisCharlestrulydoes not havethispower.”Colinis searching the memory in brain, „, but, has hadsimilarprecedentin the northernboundaryhistory.”
“按照法理来说,查尔斯侯爵确实是没有这个权力的。”柯林搜索着脑中的记忆,“但是,在北境历史上却有过类似的先例。”
The complexion that Olivejustchanged for the better is also instantaneously cloudy.
奥利弗刚刚好转的脸色瞬间又阴沉下来。Hedoes not hopeabsolutely the red foxcommissionarmy corpswere recruitedatthis timeurgently.
他是绝对不希望火狐佣兵团在这个时候被紧急征召的。Withoutescorting of commissionarmy corps, hiscaravanbecomes the lamb that treatedbutchers, at all the not possiblesecurityto arrive inEagle Descent City.
没有佣兵团的护送,他的商队就成了待宰的羔羊,根本不可能安全抵达坠鹰城。„, CommanderSarru......”Olive'stonesomewhatis so crabbed, „were youprepareto acceptthisto recruit the command?”
“那么,萨鲁团长……”奥利弗的语气有些艰涩,“您是准备接受这道征召令了吗?”Sarru'sbrowtightwrinklein the same place, herecruitsto makealsoverydiscontentedregardingthisobviouslyurgently. Considered the long time, heshakes the headto sayslowly: „No.”
萨鲁的眉头紧紧皱在一起,显然他对于这道紧急征召令也很不满。考虑了半晌,他才缓缓摇头道:“不。”Thissayingjustsaid,Olivelooks the happy expressionimmediately, butSarru'sbehindseveralmercenarychiefsactuallyblast out the potimmediately.
这话刚说完,奥利弗当即面露喜色,但萨鲁身后的几个佣兵头子却立刻炸开了锅。„Regimental commanderSir, youcannotreject the recruitingcommand of marquisCharleslike this!”
“团长大人,您不能这样拒绝查尔斯侯爵的征召令啊!”„Yes! The St. Hildefamilywill not let offus!”
“是啊!圣希尔德家族不会放过我们!”„Thatteam of cavalries...... Ifelttheyreallydareto kill people!”
“还有那队骑兵……我觉得他们是真的敢杀人的啊!”Sarruturns headsuddenly, sweepsmercenariesoneeyes that thesecreated a clamorbehindwickedly.
萨鲁猛然回头,恶狠狠地扫了身后那些鼓噪的佣兵们一眼。
The scene was also instantaneously peaceful.
场面瞬间又安静了下来。„Youmayknow, ifmetthisto recruit the commandto go toJing Lake, whatwewill soon facewaswhat?”
“你们可知道,如果接了这道征召令前往镜湖,我们即将面对的是什么?”Listened toCommanderSarru'squestion, severalmercenarychiefslook at each otherone, thenreturnssaid: „Shouldbeis readyto go to war. Althoughdanger, but the totalratiodefies the St. Hildefamily'sordersto be better.”
听了萨鲁团长的问话,几个佣兵头子对视一眼,然后回道:“应该是准备打仗吧。虽然危险,但总比违抗圣希尔德家族的命令要好吧。”„Goes to war?”Sarrulooksto sneer, „wearebring death!”
“打仗?”萨鲁面露冷笑,“我们是去送死!”„What?”
“什么?”„Regimental commanderSir, why?”
“团长大人,为什么啊?”„Going to warnotnecessarilyisbrings death? Moreover, wonperhaps the words, wealsomixsomemilitary exploits......”
“打仗也不一定就是送死啊?而且,赢了的话,说不定我们也混些军功……”„Yourthis has a dream!”Sarrube relentlessinterruptedhand/subordinate the delusion, „thinksagainwell! Why will the army of marquisCharlesappearinJing Lake?”
“你们这是做梦!”萨鲁毫不留情地打断了手下们的妄想,“再好好想想!查尔斯侯爵的军队为什么会出现在镜湖?”
The mercenarieslook at each other in blank dismay.
佣兵们面面相觑。Colinlooktwinkle, as ifunderstoodSarru'smeaning.
柯林眼神闪烁,似乎明白了萨鲁的意思。ButOliveshouteddirectly: „Right! Ialsosuspected,perhapsmarquisCharlesis repulsedtoJing Lakenear!”
而奥利弗则直接嚷了出来:“没错!我也怀疑,查尔斯侯爵恐怕是一路败退到镜湖边的!”„What?”
“什么?”„How is thispossible?”
“这怎么可能?”„How will marquisSirpossibly lose?”
“侯爵大人怎么可能会输?”
......
……
The mercenariessaid that does not believe.
佣兵们纷纷表示不信。Alsodoes not blamethemsoto trustmarquisCharlesblindly.
也不怪他们对于查尔斯侯爵这般盲目信任。Because, in the past dozens yearsTrollwas pressedby the northernboundaryarmy is completely hitting.
因为,近几十年来巨魔完全是被北境军队压着打的。Fiveyears ago, even north the Troll Kingcourtyardwas forcedto moveunder the threat ofnorthernboundarysoldier/weaponfront, south the vault of heavenicefieldbigpieceareaalmostbecame the roaminghunting ground of northernboundaryarmy.
五年前,甚至连巨魔王庭都在北境兵锋的威胁下被迫北迁了,苍穹冰原南部的大片地区几乎成了北境军队的游猎场。
The weather environment on icefieldis bad, not suitableplantercrops, is not suitableto build the manorcastle, perhaps the territory of northernboundary must extendtowardnorthagain.
要不是冰原上的气候环境过于恶劣,不适合种植庄稼,也不适合建立庄园城堡,恐怕北境的领土还要再往北延伸。Insuchsituation, anyproudnorthernboundarypersondoes not think, the St. Hildefamilywill defeatunexpectedly.
这样的情况下,任何一个骄傲的北境人都不会想到,圣希尔德家族竟然会战败。Butthinkscarefully,SarruandOlive'sspeculation is very reasonable.
但仔细想想,萨鲁和奥利弗的猜测却很有道理。In the past several months, the frontlinebattlefielddid not have the newsto pass on, insteadis several cities of borderis broken throughone after another, severalfamiliesthrew the fiefdom.
最近几个月来,前线战场一直都没有好消息传回来,反而是边境的几个城镇接连被攻破,好几个家族丢了封地。Originallyeveryonethinks that isTrollacts out of desperation, sending out the smallstockarmyto bypass the frontlineto enter the northernboundaryto make a harassing attack.
本来大家都以为那不过是巨魔狗急跳墙,派出小股部队绕过前线进入北境袭扰。Althoughseveralfamilies'privatearmywere repelledtemporarily, the northernboundarymain forcearmy that so long asmarquisCharlesleadsturns back in order to help friendly forces, the Trollarmy that deciding to sweep cleantheseinvasions, restores the lost territory.
虽然几个家族的私军被暂时击退,但只要查尔斯侯爵率领的北境主力军队回援,定能扫清这些入侵的巨魔军队,收复失地。But looking back now, perhapsnot necessarilyisso.
但现在看来,恐怕未必就是如此。Because, the army of marquisCharleshas appearedinJing Lakeunexpectedly......
因为,查尔斯侯爵的军队竟然已经出现在了镜湖……Thereis not considered as a border, butwas a center.
那里已经不算是边境,而是腹地了。In the memory of boundarypersonnorththisgeneration, Trollalsoneverhas the skillto penetrateintothisplace.
在这代北境人的记忆中,巨魔还从未有本事深入到这个地方。Mostmercenariesare silent, obviouslytheywere afraid.
大部分佣兵们都沉默下来,显然他们害怕了。Butalsosomepeoplethink otherwise, open the mouthto agitate saying: „Evenso, we can still goJing Lake, helpingmarquisCharlesdefeat the invasionTroll......”
但也有人不以为然,开口鼓动道:“就算如此,那我们也可以前去镜湖,帮助查尔斯侯爵击败入侵的巨魔……”„Idiot!”Sarruscoldedsternly, „under armywas repulsed, are youalso thinkingstriving to turn the tide? Depending onourtheseurgentrecruitedmercenary?”
“蠢货!”萨鲁厉声呵斥道,“大军败退之下,你还想着力挽狂澜?就凭我们这些被紧急征召的佣兵?”„Not is only we, nearbycommissionarmy corpsdefinitelyreceivedrecruitedto makeurgently......”
“不光是我们,附近的佣兵团肯定都接到了紧急征召令……”„Onegroup of cannon fodders!”Sarru is very clearthesesubordinatesisanygoods.
“一群炮灰罢了!”萨鲁很清楚自己这些手下人是些什么货色。
When thesefellowswhenwith the bandits and thievesfightcan the manslaughterperson on one's own side, said that theywere the motley crewsomewhatpraise.
这些家伙在跟盗贼们战斗时都能误杀自己人,说他们是乌合之众都有些夸奖了。Is also thinkingonthiscango to the battlefieldto fightwith the regular army?
就这样还想着要去战场跟正规军战斗?Reallycourts death!
真是找死!SaaLuto set firm resolvefinally, no longerpays attention tohand/subordinate the sound of opposition, turns aroundfirmly, walkstowardthatteam of St. Hildefamilies'cavalries.
撒鲁终于下定了决心,不再理会手下反对的声音,坚决地转身,向那队圣希尔德家族的骑兵走去。Looksback that Sarrudeparts, the peoplelook at each other in blank dismay, the complexionvaries.
看着萨鲁离去的背影,众人面面相觑,脸色各异。Colinalsorealizedsuddenly,his fatherBaronAngeliehasseveralmonthsnot to write a letter.
柯林也忽然意识到,他的父亲安格列男爵已经有好几个月没有写信回来了。Thisa little is not quite obviously common.
这显然有点不太寻常。Someas ifpeopleare deliberately blocking off the frontlineflow of news......
似乎有人在刻意封锁前线的消息……
Isn't the frontlinetactical situationveryreally wonderful?
难道,前线的战况真的很不妙?
......
……„Do youdareto reject the recruitingcommand of marquisSir?”Does not know that Sarrusaidanythingin that side, is that St. Hildefamilyknight of headgets angry the soundto shoutsuddenly.
“你们胆敢拒绝侯爵大人的征召令?”不知道萨鲁在那边说了什么,为首的那名圣希尔德家族骑士突然怒声喝道。„KnightSir, Iwantsto know......”
“骑士大人,我只是想要知道……”„Sufficed! The rejectionrecruits the commandurgently, thencommits treason!” The knightsinterruptedSarru'sargumentarbitrarily, tois gathering the red foxcommissionarmy corpspeopleinnearbysaid,„anyone of youkilledthistraitor, immediatelypromoteshundredhusbandsto be long!”
“够了!拒绝紧急征召令,便是叛国!”骑士蛮横地打断了萨鲁的辩解,对着聚集在跟前的火狐佣兵团众人说道,“你们谁来杀了这个叛国者,立刻晋升百夫长!”„Whish-”
“哗-”Mercenariesimmediatelyin an uproar.
众佣兵顿时一阵哗然。Somepeopleare filled with righteous indignation, somepeopledisdainto sneer, but , some people of looksglitter.
有人义愤填膺,有人不屑冷笑,但,也有人眼神闪烁。„KnightSir!”Sarruhas not returned, givesbehindpeopleownbackvery muchself-confidently , to continue saying: „Iawe the St. Hildefamily, respectsmarquisCharles, but, we have the rightto know the place that oneselfwill soon go toiswhatsituation......”
“骑士大人!”萨鲁头也没回,很自信地将自己的后背交给身后的众人,继续说道:“我敬畏圣希尔德家族,也尊重查尔斯侯爵,但是,我们也有权知道自己即将前往的地方到底是什么情况……”Sarru'swordsonlysaidhalfstop suddenly.
萨鲁的话只说了一半就戛然而止。Because, a long swordpuncturedthoroughlyhischest.
因为,一把长剑刺透了他的胸膛。„--”Sarrumouthspits the blood, has turned the headdiligently.
“嗬-嗬-”萨鲁口吐鲜血,努力转过头去。
After seeing clearlybehind the face of thatyoung people, the look on hisfacesuddenlybecomesextremelycomplex.
等看清身后那个年轻人的面孔后,他脸上的神色突然变得极为复杂。„Bang!”
“嘭!”
The corpsefalls to the ground.
尸体倒地。„Verygood!” The knight on horsebacknodssatisfied, looksyounghumanity that grasps the dropbloodlong sword, „toldmeyourname.”
“很好!”马背上的骑士满意地点点头,看着那位手持滴血长剑的年轻人道,“告诉我你的名字。”„Respectableknight, myname wasSaari.”
“尊敬的骑士,我叫萨尔。”„Saari? What are yourelatewiththisSarru?”
“萨尔?你跟这个萨鲁是什么关系?”„Heismy father, respectableknight.”
“他是我的父亲,尊敬的骑士。”
