Late at night.
深夜。In the White Dew Citytop, Rubertknightis squattingby the brazieris cleaningownlong swordcarefully.白露城城头上,鲁伯特骑士正蹲在火盆旁仔细擦拭着自己的长剑。Rubertis the typicaleasternboundaryknight, 30 -year-old overages, the lookis handsome, dignified in appearance, compared with the knight, looks like a loosecleanrecitationPoetroaming, has prunedcarefully the beardmadehisfacial featuresseeminglymanysomehale and heartymakings.
鲁伯特是个典型的东境骑士,三十岁出头的年纪,相貌英俊,仪表堂堂,比起骑士,更像一位风流倜傥的吟游诗人,只有精心修剪过的胡须让他的面容看起来多了一些硬朗的气质。He was also the old people of fewPegasusregiment, initially a shadowcanyonwar, Rubertknightcarried the severe wound, thisreturned to the easternboundaryto recuperateahead of time, cannotfollowmarquisVincentto go to the silversemi-circular protective wall outside the main city gate.
他也是为数不多的天马军团的老人了,当初暗影峡谷一战,鲁伯特骑士身负重伤,这才提前返回了东境休养,没有能够跟随文森特侯爵前往银月城。Initially when Rubertknightwas wounded, but alsooncesecretannoying, feltoneselfare unable to accompany the armed forcesto go to the silversemi-circular protective wall outside the main city gate, will missrendering meritorious servicegood opportunity a time, nowrecalls,will actually only rejoicesecretly, if is not injured, perhapshehas also becomeunder the silversemi-circular protective wall outside the main city gate of ghost.
当初鲁伯特骑士负伤之时,还曾暗暗懊恼,觉得自己无法随军前往银月城,将错过一次立功的好机会,现在回想起来,却只会暗自庆幸,若非受了伤,恐怕他也已经成了银月城下亡魂的一员了。Lord the St. Plossifamily'sdirect descendantarmyas the easternboundary, the Pegasusregimentwants certainlyfirstto reconstruct . Moreover the manpower resourcessupplement, the logistics support, the equipment supplywait/etcare the firstpriority, the Pegasusregiment that thereforemerely more than oneyear of time, was almost annihilated, supplemented the quick100,000peoplerapidly.
作为东境之主圣普洛斯家族的嫡系军队,天马军团肯定是要第一时间重建的,而且兵源补充、后勤保障、装备供应等等都是第一优先级的,所以仅仅一年多的时间,原本几近全军覆没的天马军团,就迅速重新补充到了快十万人。As if the Pegasusregimenthas had a new lease of life.
仿佛天马军团已经重获新生。ButRubertknightis very clear, presentPegasusregimentbeforereconstruction is completely the disparity of huge difference.
但鲁伯特骑士很清楚,现在的天马军团跟重建之前完全是天壤之别的差距。Althoughtheserecruitsafter more than oneyear of training, there areappearances of somesoldiers, butRubertknight is very clear, thisissomeflower trellises, fromtrueelitealsofalls far short, not to mentionnorthboundary the master of thatoppressor.
那些新兵虽然经过一年多的训练之后,有了些军人的模样,但鲁伯特骑士却很清楚,这都是些花架子,距离真正的精锐还差得远,更别提北境的那支虎狼之师了。Thinks ofhere, in the pastshadowcanyonthatterrifyingbloodyappearedinRubertknightmind, making the halfbody that hehas been injuredpain, the cold windblows, isbitterhard to endure, Rubertknightmovedhastilynearseveralstepsto the brazier.
一想到这里,当年暗影峡谷那恐怖血腥的一幕就不禁浮现在鲁伯特骑士脑海里,让他受过伤的半边身子隐隐作痛,寒风一吹,更是酸涩难忍,鲁伯特骑士连忙又向火盆挪近了几步。Naturally, the Pegasusregimentreconstructs, regarding the Rubertknightsuchperson , is actually a biggood deed.
当然,天马军团重建,对于鲁伯特骑士这样的人来说,其实是一件大好事。After all the vacancypositionwere many, military appointmentalsofollowingwhen production costs rise, prices rise too of Rubertknight, not, but the strength of histhird-orderknightand not the outstandingfamily background, is impossibleto become the multitude of people of Pegasusregimentto be long.
毕竟空缺的位置多了,鲁伯特骑士的军职也跟着水涨船高,不然以他三阶骑士的实力和并不出众的家族背景,怎么也不可能当上天马军团的千夫长。However, recently, the situation of easternboundarymakesRubertknightbe filled with the anxiety.
不过,最近一段时间以来,东境的局势却让鲁伯特骑士满心忧虑。Although the alfalfacityfoughtexactlyhadanything, does not have a conclusionby the present, variousrumors were also run all over the place.
虽然苜蓿城一战到底发生了什么,到现在也没个定论,各种流言也是满天飞。
Does CountHallhaveto betray the St. Plossifamily?
霍尔伯爵到底有没有背叛圣普洛斯家族?
Does the angrywaterriveralsocontrolin the easternboundaryhand?
怒水河还掌控在东境手中吗?Blood Cavalry Army...... presenttowhich?
还有血骑军……现在到底到哪了?Rubertknightmostcares that now, is the lastissue, to be honest, hereallydoes not wantto bump intothatfearfulnorthernboundarycavalryagain.
鲁伯特骑士现在最关心的,就是最后一个问题,说实话,他是真的不想再碰上那支可怕的北境骑兵了。Is indulging in flights of fancy, an unusualfeelingrose the heart, Rubertknightgawkedstaring, tilted the headinclines the head and listens attentively.
正胡思乱想间,一种异样的感觉升上心头,鲁伯特骑士愣了愣,歪头侧耳倾听。As ifreallyhaswhatsound.
似乎真的有什么动静。Rubertknightstands upimmediately, raises the long swordto arrive at the city wall, looksoutward.
鲁伯特骑士立刻站起身来,提着长剑走到城墙边,向外望去。Tonight the star lightis lonely, moonalsohidesafter the cloud layer, outside the jet blackcity, anythingcannot see.
今夜星光寂寥,月亮也藏在云层之后,漆黑一片的城外,什么也看不见。ButRubertknightalwaysfelt like that someare not right.
但鲁伯特骑士心里总觉得有些不对劲。Thisis an intuition that goes on an expeditionmanyyears of veteranto be in sole possession.
这是一个征战多年的老兵独有的直觉。Selectedoneteam of soldiersconveniently, Rubertknightstartedto inspectin the topcarefully.
随手点了一队士兵,鲁伯特骑士开始在城头仔细巡视。Howeverdid an inspection, anythinghad not discovered, seemed onlyhe himselfwas overly suspicious and fearfula moment ago.
但是巡查了一圈,什么也没有发现,似乎刚才只是他自己疑神疑鬼了。Gives upinspectinginRubertknightpreparation, goes backcontinuesto warm by a fire, the sound, clearlyspread to hisear.
就在鲁伯特骑士准备放弃巡视,回去继续烤火的时候,一阵吱吱嘎嘎的声音,清晰地传入了他的耳朵里。
The soldiershave not responded, butRubertknightalertsimmediately, thenexclaimed:
士兵们还没有反应过来,但鲁伯特骑士立刻警醒,回头吼道:„Has a lookquickly, somepeoplewant the Kaesonggate!”
“快去看看,是不是有人要开城门!”
The soldierslook at each other in blank dismay, thought that ownsenior officialwasinsane, at this timewhodaresto defy the military orderto open the city gate.
士兵们面面相觑,觉得自己的长官是不是疯了,这个时候谁敢违抗军令打开城门啊。Butimmediately, the indistincthoofbeatresoundedoutside the city, shiveredthissilentwinter night.
但随即,隐约的马蹄声就在城外响起,敲碎了这个寂静的冬夜。As far as eyes can reach, a fire dragonunder the dimmoonlightshines, spreadsgenerallylike the tide.
一眼望去,一条火龙在朦胧的月光照耀下,像潮水一般蔓延过来。Eventhenthesehave not experiencedbattlefield the recruits of Pegasusregimentstillto understand.
这下就算这些没经历过战阵的天马军团的新兵们也明白过来了。
The enemiesraid!
敌袭!„Quickly! Sounds the bugle, sounds the bugle!”Rubertknightexclaimedhoarsely.
“快!吹号,吹号!”鲁伯特骑士声嘶力竭地吼道。
-
呜-
The low and deepbugle horn soundthenresoundsin the topinstantaneously.
低沉的号角声瞬间便在城头响起。
The reaction speed of Rubertknight is not slow, but thisrecently createdPegasusregimentwastooimmature.
鲁伯特骑士的反应速度并不算慢,但无奈这支新组建的天马军团还是太稚嫩了。Becauselacksgrass-roots officer who has the richoperational experiencemassively, theyare hearing the earliest possible time of bugle, actuallydoes not know that firstdefends the most essentialcity gate, butfell into the helplessflurry.
由于缺乏大量有着丰富作战经验的基层军官,他们在听到军号的第一时间,竟然不知道先去守住最关键的城门,而是陷入了不知所措的慌乱之中。In additionislate at night, the military ordertransmissionis not unobstructed, whenRubertknightleads the soldierrushes tocity gate the time, the cavalrycutting edges outside discoverycityhad rushedimpressivelyless than500stepspositions.
加上是深夜,军令传递不通畅,等鲁伯特骑士率领士兵赶到城门口的时候,赫然发现城外的骑兵先锋已经冲到了不足五百步的位置。Suchneardistance, at the speed of cavalryin a flash.
这么近的距离,以骑兵的速度转瞬即至。At this time, eventhought the Guanchenggatestillwithout enough time.
这时候,就算是想关城门也来不及了。Rubertknightdoes not know how thiscity gateopens, butat this time, he was unable to worry aboutto ponderthisissue.
鲁伯特骑士不知道这城门到底是怎么打开的,但此时,他也已经无法顾得上去思考这个问题了。Because oftaking advantage of the flame, hehad seen clearly the FlagBlood Cavalry Army ofenemy!
因为借着火光,他已经看清了敌人的旗帜-血骑军!Changed a name, but the terrifying degreedoes not reduce.
换了个名字,但恐怖程度丝毫不减。
The oldsores of Rubertknightstartto pain, hesuppresses the fear of innermost feelings, the hissingis exclaiming: „Blocks the city gate!”
鲁伯特骑士的旧伤处又开始隐隐作痛,他强忍着内心的恐惧,嘶声吼道:“堵住城门!”Stops up?
堵?Withwhat?
拿什么堵?Naturallyis the human life, is the flesh.
当然是人命,是血肉。Butpitifully, noteveryonehassuchcourage, particularlythiscrowdhas not experienced the recruit in battlefield.
但可惜,并不是所有人都有这样的勇气,尤其是这群没有经历过战阵的新兵。Let alone, theyfaceat this time, wasletsonce the Pegasusregiment of heydayforBlood Cavalry Army that itshivered.
更何况,他们此时面对的,是让曾经全盛时期的天马军团都为之颤抖的血骑军。Therefore, whenRubertknightdoublegrasps the swordto standincity gate, side the discoverysimplydoes not have a companion.
所以,当鲁伯特骑士双手持剑站在城门口时,却发现身边根本没有一名同伴。
A dismalmoodwell ups.
一股悲凉的情绪涌上心头。
Couldn't the presentPegasusregiment, sowithstandunexpectedly?
如今的天马军团,竟然如此不堪了么?Faced the northernboundarycavalry who the tideis cominggenerallyalone, Rubertknightas ifreturnedoneyear ago shadowcanyon.
独自面对着潮水一般汹涌而来的北境骑兵,鲁伯特骑士恍惚间仿佛回到了一年前的暗影峡谷。Suddenly, hesuddenlyis calm, does not have the fear, withoutresenting, has, but an extricationandfeeling relaxed.
一时间,他却突然镇定下来,没有恐惧,没有愤恨,有的,只是一种解脱和释然。In the mind of RubertknightappearedinoncePegasusregimentthatfamiliarfacial features, bellowed:
鲁伯特骑士的脑海中浮现出曾经的天马军团中那一张张熟悉的面容,大吼一声:„Brothers, my accompaniedyou!”
“兄弟们,我这就来陪你们了!”Bang!
嘭!As ifkeeps offin the monstrous wavesbeforehandsand and crushed stone, Rubertknightputs in an appearanceto be hitto fly, but the turbulentcavalrytidehas nothingmarches forwardrollingsluggishly.
仿佛挡在巨浪之前的砂石,鲁伯特骑士一个照面就被撞飞出去,而汹涌的骑兵浪潮没有任何迟滞地继续滚滚向前。Slaughters, startsto spreadin the city.
杀戮,开始在城中蔓延。

……Bailufort.
白露堡。Alwaysactuallycrashes in the study roomabout the steward who the etiquettepays great attention toespeciallyat this timeflustered, shivers the report saying:
一向对礼仪格外注重的管家此时却慌慌张张地冲进书房,颤抖着汇报道:„Old...... master, is not good! Blood Cavalry Armykilledto enter a city!”
“老……老爷,不好了!血骑军杀进城了!”As if not surprisedwithDukeSt. Plossi who marquisVincentplays chess, hearswordhave not put down the crystalboard game piece in hand, the visionstillstayedon the checkerboard, askedlightly:
正在跟文森特侯爵对弈的圣普洛斯公爵却似乎一点也不惊讶,闻言都没有放下手中的水晶棋子,目光也仍然停留在棋盘上,淡淡地问道:„Whichgate? Howto come in?”
“哪个门?怎么进来的?”ByDukeSt. Plossiinfectscalmly, the stewarddeeplyattractsseveraltones, steadymentality, said:
被圣普洛斯公爵的镇定所感染,管家深吸几口气,稳了稳心态,道:„Entersfrom the north gate. The information that currentlyobtainsis, had the traitor withinto open the north gatesecretly, putBlood Cavalry Army.”
“从北门进的。目前得到的情报是,有内奸偷偷打开了北城门,将血骑军放了进来。”„Iknew.”DukeSt. Plossinods.
“我知道了。”圣普洛斯公爵点点头。
The stewardssee that suddenlywas relaxed.
管家见状,心情忽然放松了许多。Obviously, DukeSt. Plossihas expectedall these.
显然,圣普洛斯公爵早就预料到了这一切。Perhaps, thisisdukeSirfallsin view ofone that Blood Cavalry Armysupposes.
说不定,这还是公爵大人针对血骑军设下的一个陷进呢。Therefore, seesDukeSt. Plossinot the furtherinstruction, the stewardthenbows a ritual, withdrew from the study room, but alsoconvenientcloses the door.
于是,见圣普洛斯公爵没有进一步的指示,管家便躬身一礼,退出了书房,还顺手将房门关上。In the study room, marquisVincent the looklooks atDukeSt. Plossidignifiedly, the sinkingsound said:
书房内,文森特侯爵神色凝重地看着圣普洛斯公爵,沉声道:„What kind of, the father, then should youbelieveme?”
“怎么样,父亲,这下您该相信我了吧?”
