Waterfront City.临水城。
The dim light of nightis deep.
夜色已深。Dozenscandlesilluminate the study roomwell-illuminated.
数十根蜡烛将书房照得通亮。armyreportedto gather here unceasingly, butColinhad not actually seen, whateverinsteadtheypiled upon the desk.
一份份军报不断汇聚到这里,但柯林却没怎么看,反而任由它们在书桌上堆积。Looks at a faceleisurely and carefreeColin, Harrisonimperial princecannot bearmake noiseto askfinally: „Teacher, how don't youprocessthesearmynewspapers?”
看着一脸悠闲的柯林,哈里森皇子终于忍不住出声问道:“老师,您怎么不处理这些军报?”„Does not worry.”Colinhandholds an obsoletesheepskinbook, lookswith great interest.
“不着急。”柯林手捧着一本陈旧的羊皮书,看得津津有味。Harrisonimperial princecollectsto look, unexpectedlyis«EastGloriousEmpireBoundaryAristocratHeraldry».
哈里森皇子凑过去一看,竟是一本《光辉帝国东境贵族纹章学》。At this timestudied the coat of arms of easternboundaryaristocrat?
这个时候研究东境贵族的纹章?Harrisonimperial princeis somewhat speechless, butactuallydoes not dareto express,haswith the questionnairetone: „Teacher, did thatthesearmyreportme to have a look?”
哈里森皇子有些无语,但却不敢表示出来,只好用征询的口吻道:“老师,那这些军报我能看看吗?”„Ok.”Colinhas not liftedsaid.
“可以。”柯林头也没抬地说道。
Before Harrisonimperial princethenarrives at the table, manipulated a candlestick, then reads the armyreport that thesedelivertaking advantage of the candlelight.
哈里森皇子便来到桌前,摆弄了一下烛台,然后便借着烛光翻看起那些送过来的军报。PrincessJudyalsoinstudy room, butthislittle whilehas lainon the sofafalls asleep.
朱蒂公主也在书房中,只是这会儿已经趴在沙发上睡着了。Colinis worried aboutherto catch cold, thencalled the maidservant, hugged the roomher.
柯林担心她着凉,便叫来侍女,将她抱回了房间。In the study roomrestoredagainpeacefully, is only left over the slightsound that the turningbooksound and candlecombustiongentlyexude.
书房中再次恢复了安静,只剩下轻轻的翻书声音和蜡烛燃烧发出的轻微响声。Harrisonimperial princereadsthesearmynewspapers, morelooked that moreis the heartis startled.
哈里森皇子看着这一份份军报,越看越是心惊。Hecannot bearlook uptooneselfteacher, actuallyseeshimstillthatleisurely and carefreeappearance, seemed really attracted the completeinterestby the coat of arms of easternboundaryaristocrat.
他忍不住抬头看向自己的老师,却见他依然那副悠闲的模样,似乎真的被东境贵族的纹章吸引了全部的兴趣。Wantto open the mouthseveraltimes, butlooks at the Colindedicatedappearance, had words on the tip of the tongueactuallyto swallow.
几次想要开口,但看柯林专注的样子,话到嘴边却都又咽了下去。Thenononeself there anxioustouching own ears and cheeks, restless.
然后就自己在那儿急的抓耳挠腮,坐立不安。As ifnoticedHarrisonimperial princesound, Colinaskedwith a smile: „What's wrong?”
似乎注意到了哈里森皇子的动静,柯林笑着问道:“怎么了?”Harrisonimperial princesaidhastily: „Teacher, wewere surrounded!”
哈里森皇子连忙说道:“老师,我们被包围了!”„Right?”Colinthatleisurely and carefreeappearance, as if still had not been worriedfor this reason.
“是吗?”柯林依然那副悠闲的样子,似乎一点也没有为此担心。PerhapswasthisinfectedHarrisonimperial princecalmly, healsofromanxietycalm, buttook up a simplemap, rushed tosideColinto spread out, thengesticulatedto explain above:
或许是这份镇定感染了哈里森皇子,他也从焦躁中冷静了下来,但还是拿起一张简易地图,跑到柯林身边摊开,然后在上面比划着解释道:
„ Teacher, Waterfront City that weare in this position.
“老师,我们所在的临水城在这个位置。Alfalfacityinourwest side, butnow, the west sidehad presentedeast three boundaryarmy, in the armyreportsaid that the estimatealtogether has60,000-70,000people!
苜蓿城在我们的西边,但现在,西边已经出现了三支东境军队,军报上说估计共有60,000-70,000人!Moreover, ournorth side have a cavalry, it is estimated thatmore than20,000people...... ”
而且,我们的北边还有一支骑兵,估计不下两万人……”„Cavalry?”Colinhehesmiles, said: „Does the easternboundary have the cavalry?”
“骑兵?”柯林呵呵一笑,道:“东境还有骑兵呐?”
„ Eastern the cavalry of boundarycannot certainlycomparewith the cavalry of northernboundary, not to mentionBlood Cavalry Army, butTeacher, wenowafter allineasternboundary!
“东境的骑兵当然不能跟北境的骑兵相比,更别提血骑军了,但是老师,我们现在毕竟是在东境呀!
Isn't the island of resistancethorougharmy, mostafraidis surrounded? ”
孤军深入的军队,不是最害怕被包围吗?”„Had Ibeen surrounded?”Colinbrowselects.
“我已经被包围了吗?”柯林眉头一挑。„Was almost quick!”SeeingColinis a sluggishappearance, Harrisonimperial princestartedto worry, „ teacheryoulooked,ourpositionsmorewill only walktowardeastare farther, buthadAlsulfurmountain rangeimpedimenttowardsouth, only ifwecancaptureFire Velvet City, otherwisethatwas a blind alley!
“差不多快了!”眼看柯林还是一副懒散的样子,哈里森皇子又开始着急了,“老师您看,我们的位置往东只会越走越远,而往南有阿尔硫斯山脉阻隔,除非我们能攻下火绒城,不然那就是一条死路啊!Therefore, has not closed upwhilethisencirclement ringcompletely, youhurryto draw inBlood Cavalry Army, thencommands the armyto break through! ”
所以,趁着这个包围圈还没有完全合拢,您还是赶紧收拢血骑军,然后率军突围吧!”„Draws inBlood Cavalry Army?”
“收拢血骑军?”„Right. Ilook at the Blood Cavalry Armyquantity in cityto only have about 3000nowprobably, should otherarmiesdisperseinperipheral?”
“对啊。我看现在城中的血骑军数量大概只有三千左右,其余的部队应该分散在周边吧?”„Not.”
“不在。”„Not...... notin?”Harrisonimperial princewas shocked, obviouslyhas not thoughtunexpectedlygotsuch an answer.
“不……不在?”哈里森皇子愣住了,显然是没想到居然得到了这样一个答案。„Wherethat...... is thatBlood Cavalry Armymain forceat?”
“那……那血骑军的主力在哪?”Colincrossedonepage of books, saidlightly: „Thislittle whileestimated that shouldsomeharborsouth ofAlsulfurmountain rangeland.”
柯林翻过一页书,淡淡道:“这会儿估计应该已经在阿尔硫斯山脉以南的某个港口登陆了吧。”Harrisonimperial princeopened the mouth, a facecannotbelieve the placeto lookownteacher, as if not know that shouldsaywhatwas good.
哈里森皇子张大了嘴巴,一脸不可置信地看着自己老师,似乎已经不知道该说什么好了。„Fear?”Colinseeswas scaredHarrisonimperial princewith a laugh, teased.
“害怕了?”柯林笑呵呵地看着被吓傻了的哈里森皇子,调侃道。ActuallythistimeColincommands the armyto march the easternboundary, has not plannedto takeHarrisonimperial princeandPrincessJudy, butcannot supporttwo people to makeis comingtogether, hetookthesetwochildren in such an arrangement.
其实这次柯林率军进军东境,是没打算带上哈里森皇子和朱蒂公主的,但架不住两人非要闹着一起来,他才带上了这两个拖油瓶。Juststarted, Harrisonimperial princethinks that thisis onlyBlood Cavalry Armyjourney of the looting.
刚开始,哈里森皇子以为这只是血骑军的一次洗劫之旅。Snatches something near the alfalfacity, thenevacuatesrapidly.
在苜蓿城附近抢些东西,然后迅速撤离。Because the Orcinvasionnears, although the northernboundarycontrolled the angrywaterriver, butis impossibleto march the easternboundaryon a large scale, therefore, Blood Cavalry Army the not possibleisland of resistanceto be thoroughat this time.
因为兽人入侵在即,北境虽然掌控了怒水河,但也不可能大举进军东境,所以,血骑军这时候也不可能孤军深入。But looking back now, seems not such.
但现在看来,似乎并非如此。Colindoes not satisfysimplegrabbingobviously, but the easternboundary, as if not wantto makenorth this boundaryCounteasilyleave.
柯林显然不满足于简单的劫掠,而东境,似乎也不想让这位北境伯爵轻易离开。„I...... myfear.”Harrisonimperial princesaysimmediately.
“我……我没有害怕。”哈里森皇子立刻道。Colinshot a look at his student, is smiling the comfort saying: „Relax, even ifwereallydefeatto be captured, the easternboundarypersonstillonlyrespectfullywill return toRoyal Dragon CityyouandJudy.”
柯林瞥了一眼自己的学生,笑着安慰道:“放心吧,就算我们真的战败被俘,东境人也只会恭恭敬敬地将你和朱蒂送回御龙城。”„Teacher, Iam worried aboutyou!”Harrisonimperial princeurgentlysaid.
“老师,我是在担心您呀!”哈里森皇子急道。Colinlaughs, puts down the sheepskinbook in hand, asked: „Youworried that Ican't run away?”
柯林哈哈一笑,放下手中的羊皮书,问道:“你担心我跑不掉?”Harrisonimperial princenodsseriously.
哈里森皇子面色凝重地点点头。IfBlood Cavalry Army, thatHarrisonimperial princetoowill not actually be worried.
如果血骑军都在,那其实哈里森皇子也不会太担心。After allby the Blood Cavalry Armypowerfulbattle efficiency, the easternboundarypersonin the Waterfront Cityperipheralto bind an encirclement ring, Colin can still command the armyto goevenprominently.
毕竟以血骑军的强悍战斗力,就算东境人在临水城周边扎好一个包围圈,柯林也能率军突出去。However, ifBlood Cavalry Armymain forcenotin......
但是,如果血骑军的主力不在……Harrisonimperial princewas somewhat hurried.
哈里森皇子有些慌了。
A Colinconfidentappearance, said with a smile: „Harrison, actuallybattlefieldgambling, the beststrategyisunexpectedly.”
柯林却一副胸有成竹的样子,笑道:“哈里森,其实战场博弈,最好的策略就是出其不意。”„Unexpectedly?”
“出其不意?”„Right. Does not press the repertoireto play a card, making the opponent unable to guess correctlyyournextaction and truegoal.”
“没错。就是不按套路出牌,让对手猜不到你的下一步行动和真正的目的。”Harrisonimperial princepeaceful, is pondering the meaning in Colinwordscarefully.
哈里森皇子安静了下来,仔细思考着柯林话语中的意思。
After the moment, heraised the headagain, asks: „ThenTeacher, what is your timetruegoal?”
片刻后,他才再次抬起头来,问道:“那么老师,您这次的真正目的是什么呢?”„Do youfeel?”Colinhad not replied, butasked.
“你觉得呢?”柯林没有回答,而是反问道。Harrisonimperial princehesitant, said: „ShouldbeWhite Dew City? Youmake the baitinWaterfront Citypersonally, attracts the attention of easternboundaryarmy, shouldwantto make the Blood Cavalry Armymain forceseize the chanceto captureWhite Dew City, is right?”
哈里森皇子犹豫了一下,道:“应该是白露城吧?您亲自在临水城做诱饵,吸引东境军队的注意,应该是想让血骑军主力趁机攻下白露城,对不对?”„Right.”Colinnods.
“没错。”柯林点点头。Histruegoalactuallyandcontinuesthis, butmanyinformationhewill not disclosetoHarrison the imperial prince.
他的真正目的其实并不止这点,但更多的信息他也不会透露给哈里森皇子。Harrisonimperial princethinksunderstandsColin'soverall scheme, cannot bearopens the mouthto sayagain:
哈里森皇子自以为明白了柯林的全盘计划,忍不住再次开口道:„Teacher, with all due respect, Ithought that yourplanhas very majorproblem.”
“老师,恕我直言,我觉得您的计划有很大的问题。”„Said that looks.”
“说说看。”
„ First, youwork as the baitinWaterfront Citypersonally, wantsto attract the attention of easternboundaryperson, quitemakes the Blood Cavalry Armymain forcebe ableto sneak attackWhite Dew Citysmoothly, but if the easternboundarygrips the encirclement ringaroundWaterfront City, leaves behindyou, thatgain does not equal the loss?
“首先,您亲自在临水城当诱饵,想吸引东境人的注意力,好让血骑军主力能够顺利偷袭白露城,但如果东境在临水城周围扎好包围圈,将您留下,那岂不是得不偿失?Let alone, the Blood Cavalry Armymain forceis also not necessarily ableto captureWhite Dew Citysmoothly, Iknow that the Pegasusregimentoncewiped outunder the silversemi-circular protective wall outside the main city gatebyyou, justrebuilt the battle efficiency is also worrying, buttheyhave the firmcity to defendafter all, Blood Cavalry Armyhas not carried the attacking a cityweapon, perhapsis very difficultto captureWhite Dew City?
更何况,血骑军主力也未必能够顺利攻下白露城呀,我知道天马军团曾被您在银月城下全歼,刚刚重建战斗力也堪忧,但他们毕竟有坚城可守,血骑军也没有携带攻城武器,恐怕很难攻下白露城吧?Even ifBlood Cavalry ArmyreallycapturedWhite Dew Citymarvelously, depending on a person, stillnot necessarilycan defend.
就算血骑军真的奇迹般地攻下了白露城,光凭那么点人,也未必守得住。Therefore, Ithought that yourplanhas the enormousrisk, butincomeactually...... ”
所以,我觉得您的计划存在极大的风险,但收益却……”Colinnods, said: „Youanalyzeis reasonable. However, was actually short ofsomekey aspects.”
柯林点点头,道:“你分析的有道理。不过,却少了一些关键因素。”„Whichkey aspects?”
“哪些关键因素?”„For example, why can Iin the alfalfacityinitiallyunconditional releaseCount Ivan?”
“比如,我当初在苜蓿城为什么会无条件释放埃文伯爵?”Does not wait forHarrisonimperial princeto ponder,Colinthenraiseda series ofissues:
不等哈里森皇子细想,柯林又接着抛出了一系列的问题:
„ For example, howreturning toWhite Dew CitymarquisVincentto face the presentaspect?
“又比如,回到白露城的文森特侯爵会如何面对现在的局面?Againfor example, whenDukeSt. Plossiknew the when goal of Blood Cavalry Armymain forceisWhite Dew City, canrequest the easternboundaryfeudal lordto return to the armyto support?
再比如,当圣普洛斯公爵得知了血骑军主力的目标是白露城时,会不会要求东境领主回军支援?If the easternboundaryfeudal lordpersists innot turning back in order to help friendly forces, insteadpersists inencirclingme, how does DukeSt. Plossithink?
而如果东境领主坚持不回援,反而坚持围剿我的话,那圣普洛斯公爵会怎么想?Hallfamily, Buruqinfamily...... wait/etceasternboundaryfeudal lords, howalsoto make the choice? ”
还有霍尔家族,布鲁根家族……等等东境领主,又会如何做出选择?”Harrisonimperial princedoes not knowhowimmediatelyshouldanswertheseissues.
哈里森皇子顿时不知道该如何回答这些问题了。Colinpattedhisshoulderwith a smile, said:
柯林笑着拍了拍他的肩膀,道:„Look, the realbattlefieldis well chaotic, fast changing, is notyoudeducesone to draw the conclusion there.”
“好好看着吧,真实的战场纷乱复杂,瞬息万变,并不是你在那儿推演一番就能得出结论的。”„Iunderstood, Teacher, I will be quite certainly easy to learn!”
“我明白了,老师,我一定会好好学的!”Sees a faceearnestHarrisonimperial prince, Colinis smilingnod, complainedat heartsecretly-
看着一脸认真的哈里森皇子,柯林微笑着点了点头,心里却暗自吐槽-Youstudy!
你学个屁!Youalsodo not have the blood groupto hang.
你又没血族挂。
