清晨的阳光暖洋洋的洒在身上,当罗德从睡梦中醒来的时候,迷迷糊糊看到卡洛琳正趴在桌前,凝视着自己。那目光带着怪异……„What's wrong? Dear, what are youlooking at?”
“怎么了?亲爱的,你在看什么?”Rodopens the eyeblurry, askedwith the hoarsesound. Hefeels the tableto look for the water, last nightplaced the tablehead the drinking glass, restedonethroughout entire evening, was hard to takethirstily. Has saying that the structure of Snowrock Fortisverythick, the castlebuildswith the giantstone, the middlefills up the sand and crushed stone, canplayverygoodheat preservationeffect, Rodhas not felt the chill in the airall night. Evennowisin the winter.罗德迷迷糊糊睁开眼睛,用沙哑的声音问到。他摸着桌子去找水,昨晚将水杯放在桌头,睡了一整个晚上,口渴难耐。不得不说雪岩堡的构造还是挺厚实的,城堡用巨型石块砌成,中间填满沙子和碎石,可以起到很好的保温功效,以至于一整夜罗德都没有感觉到寒意。即便现在已经是冬季。Rodfound the drinking glass, drinks. Looks atCarolineagaintime, the opposite partylooks at steadilyas before, is staring atoneselfwith the strangelook. Thisfeelingmakes the Rodwhole body not comfortable.罗德找到了水杯,一口饮下。再看卡洛琳的时候,对方依旧目不转睛,用奇怪的眼神盯着自己。这种感觉让罗德浑身不自在。Hisalsolooks atCaroline......
他也看着卡洛琳……„How? Dear?”
“到底怎么了?亲爱的?”Rodsqueezes out a happy expression, thenasked.罗德挤出一丝笑意,接着问到。„Not.”
“没怎么。”Carolineis saying, transfers the head, no longerlooks athim. Is glancing through the books in oneselfhandearnestly. Rodfelt that the atmosphereis not right, thenwears the pajamasto walk, gentleis rubbing the shoulder of Caroline , to continue to ask——卡洛琳说着,将头转过去,不再看他。埋头翻阅着自己手中的书籍。罗德感到气氛不对,便穿着睡衣走过去,温柔的揉着卡洛琳的肩,继续问到——„It is not right, certainlyhas the matter. Toldme, howyou?”
“不对,一定有事。告诉我,你到底怎么了?”HoweverCarolinedid not speakas before, shewas not angry. Thisfeeling was really whish the dog. The previous generationquarrelledwith the girlfriendeach time is thiscondition, the cold war...... the damncold war, eitheryouvented, eitherbe not putting on a serious face, faceproudtender. Doesoneselfto be confused. Really, whicharrives, the women are the same......
但是卡洛琳依旧不说话,她也不生气。这种感觉真是哗了狗了。前世每次和女友吵架便是这种状态,冷战……该死的冷战啊,要么你发泄出来,要么就别板着脸,一脸傲娇。搞得自己一头雾水。果然,走到哪,女人都一样……Rodsighedsecretly. Carolinehas then turned the head, in a low voicespeaking of——罗德暗自叹气。卡洛琳这才转过头,低声说到——„Youhave been studyingthatWood Elfarrowrecently, toldme, what are youthinking? Iheard that Wood ElfisfemaleElf.”
“你最近一直在研究那个木精灵的箭,告诉我,你在想什么?我听说那个木精灵是一个女精灵。”Carolinesaid,RodonlyknowsoneselfthissmallWitchis having scruplesanything. Really, the women are the same......卡洛琳说完,罗德这才知道自己这个小女巫在顾忌什么。果然,女人都一样……„FemaleElf...... attractivefemaleElf......, butthisstudies the arrowvarietynot to have the relationswithme......”
“女精灵……漂亮的女精灵……但是这跟我研究箭簇没关系……”„What do youstudyherarrowto make?”
“那你研究她的箭做什么?”„Haven't youdiscovered? The Wood Elfarrowdesignsverygracefully, the streamlinedesigncanreduce the air the resistance, making the arrowshoot. Moreover, working is also very fine. Iam thinking when ourblacksmithscanbuildsuchweapon?”Rodis saying, at the same timeis observing the Carolinecomplexion.
“你没发现吗?木精灵的箭设计得十分优雅,流线型的设计可以减少空气的阻力,让箭射得更远。另外,做工也十分精细。我在想,什么时候我们的铁匠才能打造出这样的武器?”罗德说着,一边观察着卡洛琳的脸色。„Also, Istudy the Wood Elfarrow, is thinking when wecanhavesucharcher? Dear, youknow that strongesthumanarchereffective rangealsoonly then100steps, but the effective range of Wood Elfshootersurpassed200steps, it is saidbeyond200cankillas beforeaccurate.

So long asarranges100Wood Elfarchersin the city wall, eventens of thousands ofBeastman, wedid not fear.”
“还有,我研究木精灵的箭,是在想,什么时候我们才能拥有这样的弓箭手?亲爱的,你知道的,最强的人类弓箭手有效射程也只有一百步,但是木精灵射手的有效射程超过了两百步,据说两百步外依旧可以精准射杀。这是多大的差距啊……原本我以为木精灵不会替其他种族作战,不属于佣兵范畴。但是直到这次,我才知道,他们中也有特例,也有雇佣兵。我的想法是,什么时候可以招募一批木精灵射手,作为我们部队里的远程核心力量。这样,无论是野兽人、绿皮,或者是诺斯卡人进攻,我们都不怕了。只要在城墙上布置一百名木精灵弓箭手,就算成千上万的野兽人,我们也不怕。”Rodcontinuesto explain.罗德继续解释到。„Right? HowIheard that younot onlystudyothersarrows, but alsopraisedothersstatures?”
“是吗?那我怎么听说你不仅研究人家的箭,还夸赞人家的身材?”Carolineis cloudy the faceto ask.卡洛琳阴着脸问到。„Whosaid?!”
“谁说的?!”Rodasked back. Actuallyeven ifCarolinedid not say that Rodstillguessed correctly, definitelyishe, thatsmalldwarfis not always free from worry, only thenhewill dothismatter......罗德反问到。其实即便卡洛琳不说罗德也猜到了,肯定是他,那个小矮子总是不省心,只有他才会干这种事……Thump thump thump......
咚咚咚……„Sir, has the information.”
“大人,有情报。”Whentwo peopletalkednoisily, out of the doorresounded the knock of guard.
就在两人你一言我一语吵闹的时候,门外响起了侍卫的敲门声。„Comes.”
“进来。”Rodspoke thoughtlesslyto speak. BecauseCarolinehas worn the formal dress, oneselfhas not worn the formal dressto be indifferent.罗德随口说到。因为卡洛琳已经穿好正装,自己没穿正装无所谓。„The order of Queen, requestingusto hurry back toErengrad. Appearedis eliminatedinSolewindnearbyGreenskinarmyhalf a month ago. Now, the allied armieswill soon launch the general attackto the city of rebel army.”
“女王的命令,要求我们赶回厄伦格拉德。出现在孤风城附近的绿皮大军已经在半个月前被消灭了。现在,联军即将对叛军之城发起总攻。”

侍卫汇报到。

Originally3000people of defenseUnitoneweeklaterquickly wanesto2000people...... andis draining......厄伦格拉德城外,冰雪女王的大帐。暴乱结束后的城市一片狼藉,暴徒的流血死亡让城中的平民和贵族们绝望了。连士兵也失去了守城的信心。没有人愿意为一场必败无疑的战斗而丧命。他们看不到未来,连日来,偷跑出城投靠女王的厄伦格拉德守军不断增多。原本三千人的守城部队一星期后骤减至两千人……而且还在流失……Threeunionsalsoannounceddisintegrate, MarkusandMorlock, Brandon, sent peopleto sumtoQueen, wantsto forgive his life. Is willingto offer the entire fortune. However, since facing the messenger, Katarinhad displayed the consistentpride and indifference.
三头同盟也宣告瓦解,马库斯和莫洛克,还有布兰登,先后派人向女王求和,希望饶他一命。愿意奉上全部财产。然而,面对信使,卡特琳娜表现出了一贯以来的骄傲和冷漠。„He said that ifyouagree, heopen the city and surrender, relievesallmilitary equipment, offerstenten thousandGold Crownand50ten thousandSilver Shillingtoyou. The jewelryandgoldenhousehold utensils of in additionfivecarriage.”
“他说,如果您同意的话,他将开城投降,解除所有武装,并且,向您献上十万金王冠和五十万银先令。外加五辆马车的珠宝和黄金器皿。”Messenger'stremblingreply.
信使战战兢兢的回答着。„Thiswas the Kislevproperty, Markushad sole possession ofit, now, canbringto pay with life some properties?”
“这原本就是属于基斯里夫的财产,马库斯独吞了它,现在,要将这部分财产拿来抵命?”Ice Queenasked back.冰雪女王反问到。
The envoysdid not speak, thiswas nothisdutycategory, hisdutyhad the original words. Howto respondas forQueen,thisis nothecanexpectandbe solved.
使者不说话,这不属于他的任务范畴,他的任务只是将原话带到。至于女王会如何反应,这并不是他可以预料并解决的。„This...... I not clear...... your majesty......”
“这个……我不清楚……陛下……”
The envoysrepliedrespectfully.
使者恭恭敬敬的回答到。„Youare not certainly clear. Goes backto tellyourlord, the peace talksareimpossible. Hehad lost the qualifications of peace talks. The mousedoes not have the qualifications and lionnegotiates, Iwant, ishislife. Tomorrow, Erengradbroken the city, butmyarmy, will have ground the city gate, foundhiscorpse.”
“你当然不清楚。回去告诉你们的主子,和谈是不可能的。他已经失去了和谈的资格。老鼠没资格和狮子谈判,我要的,是他的命。明天,厄伦格拉德将城破,而我的大军,将碾过城门,找到他的尸体。”Katarinspoke of the low and deepandterrifyingsound.卡特琳娜用低沉而恐怖的声音说到。
The envoyshave frightened, heis shiveringsetting out, towardQueenearnestbowing, thenunder the influence ofKreml Guard, went out of the bigtent/account.
使者早已吓出了一身冷汗,他颤抖着起身,朝女王认真的鞠了一躬,而后在克雷姆守卫的引领下,走出了大帐。„Queenyour majesty......”
“女王陛下……”
The envoyfront legwalks, the back leg, ministerKandaniahad an audience withimmediatelyTzar. Katarinreceived the envoya moment agotimeheinside, manywordssuppressed at heart, finallyto the situation of extraordinarynot saying.
使者前脚一走,后脚,大臣坎达尼亚马上觐见了沙皇。刚才卡特琳娜接见使者的时候他就在旁边,许多话憋在心里,终于到了不得不说的地步。„Youmusturgeme, do not massacre city?”
“你是不是要劝我,不要屠城?”Katarinsaw the ministerKandaniathoughtsquickly. In the old personeyesis glittering the loyal, anxiousandanxiouscomplex emotion. Hegives loyalty to KislevTzar, his father, father'sfathershas bledforthiscountry, is offering the oneselflifesilently. It is precisely for this reason, Kandaniamay be calledloyaltoKatarin. Just, inrarehonestyasimperial palace, hecannot obtainto promote, because ofhisloyalty, Queenis also retaininghispositionthroughout.卡特琳娜很快就看出了大臣坎达尼亚的心思。老人眼里闪烁着忠诚、不安、焦虑的复杂心情。他效忠于基斯里夫沙皇,他的父亲,父亲的父亲都为这个国家流过血,默默奉献着自己的一生。也正因如此,坎达尼亚对卡特琳娜堪称忠诚。只不过,作为皇宫中难得的正直者,他始终得不到晋升,不过也因为他的忠诚,女王始终保留着他的位置。„Is...... your majesty......”Kandaniadeeply frowned , to continue to speak of- „thesecivilians, theyare innocent. Theydo not know the truth, theywere deceived the useby the aristocrats, butessentially, theyare the Kislevpeople.”
“是的……陛下……”坎达尼亚眉头紧锁,继续说到-“那些平民,他们是无辜的。他们并不知道真相,他们被贵族们欺骗利用,但是本质上,他们都是基斯里夫的子民。”Urging that the old persondoes best to convince. Althoughhedoes not know that Queenwill then makewhatresponse.
老人苦口婆心的劝到。尽管他不知道女王接下来会作何反应。„That, yourmeaning, Imustaccept the peace negotiations of theserebels, lets gothem, withso-called‚peace’ does methodenter a city?”
“那么,你的意思,我要接受那些叛徒的议和,放走他们,用所谓的‘和平’手段进城?”Katarinasked back.卡特琳娜反问到。Kandaniawas frightened. Helistened to the Ice Queenwordsto have the words, listened to the Ice Queenanger and resentment. Enableshimnot to knowhowsuddenlyshouldanswer.坎达尼亚被吓出了一身冷汗。他听出了冰雪女王话中有话,听出了冰雪女王的怒气和怨气。使得他一时间不知道该如何作答。„Iam notthismeaning...... your majesty.”
“我不是这个意思……陛下。”„Thatdoes not existinnocentandis not innocent. Theyrebel againstme, attacksmyarmy, attacksmycity wall. Thisthenbetrays! If the deceivedpersoncansayinnocently, deceives a person, askinghimto kill people, was the murdererit can be said thatalso innocent? Theyshouldhave the minimumresolution.”
“那就不存在无辜与不无辜。他们反叛我,袭击我的军队,攻击我的城墙。这便是背叛!如果被欺骗的人可以说无罪,那么,欺骗一个人,叫他去杀人,杀人犯也可以说是无罪吗?他们应该有最起码的分辨能力。”Katarinangrily rebukes.卡特琳娜怒斥到。
The Kandaniahearlowers the headsilently. Heknows,Queenhas made the decision, no onecanchange......坎达尼亚听完默默低下了头。他知道,女王已经做出了决定,没人可以改变……
