Rod stands on the towering hump, is looking at the Erengrad city under gray backdrop, worried. 罗德站在突兀的山岗上,望着灰色天幕下的厄仑格拉德城,心事重重。 Many years ago, oneself takes in the North allied armies very small Unit, participated campaign that exterminates the Erengrad rebel army. At that time, Erengrad is a prosperous port city, it can be said that northern Old World biggest port city. At the present, went through twice wars, this city is a damaged scene, the initial 100,000 residents mostly by being sent to frontier service border area, degenerated into the slave, remains, is some new immigrations. The old family is damaged, the new family suffers the flames of war again. 多年前,自己作为北境联军中很小的一支部队,参加了剿灭厄仑格拉德叛军的战役。那时候,厄仑格拉德还是一座繁荣的港口城市,可以说是旧世界北方最大的港口城市。而今,经历了两次战争,这座城市已然是一番破败不堪的景象,当初的十万居民大多被发配边疆,沦为奴隶,剩下来的,都是一些新移民。旧的家庭破碎不堪,新的家庭再遭战火。 Rod really does not know that should attack a city with what means that the information that the scout passes on, the garrison troops of this city at least have 2000 people. Although North allied armies 20,000 numerous, but must take over a defense perfect Erengrad city, must pay the huge price, cannot guarantee after this campaign ended, Ice Queen will not seize the chance to go north again, attacks the North center. Moreover, attacking a city, how to attack a city is also a difficult problem. Cannot injure to the civilians, cannot the bloody murder like initially Katarin, otherwise, the mass base of oneself dependence will be nothing left. 罗德实在不知道该用什么办法攻城,探子传出来的情报,这座城市的守军至少还有两千人。北境联军虽然有两万之众,但是要攻下一座防御完善的厄仑格拉德城,还是要付出巨大的代价,不敢保证当这场战役结束后,冰雪女王不会趁机再度北上,袭击北境腹地。而且,攻城,如何攻城也是一道难题。不能伤到平民,不能像当初卡特琳娜那样血腥屠杀,否则,自己依靠的群众基础将荡然无存。 Moreover, trades a level, oneself does not want to see that the civilians bleed in the war. Although this is inevitable, but can avoid being probable to avoid. The grass-root people lived enough difficultly already, many people lived are living to might as well die, if were devastated by the flames of war again, is pitiful. Naturally, does not remove is poor anything no one, they were also counting on the war can make them turn over/stand up...... after all, the dare-to-die corps in each only Unit mostly are, owe usury the disciple of escape comprised of the poor devil, beggar and prisoner...... 另外,换一个层面来说,自己也不想看到平民在战争中流血。尽管这是必然的,但是能够避免都要避免。底层民众原本的生活就已经够艰苦的了,许多人活着生不如死,如果再遭到战火摧残,更是悲惨。当然,也不排除穷得什么都没有的人,他们还指望着战争能够让他们翻身……毕竟,每只部队中的敢死队大多都是由穷鬼、乞丐、囚犯、欠高利贷的逃命之徒组成…… Naturally, seizes the city also to have another means that is spends money...... to spend money to buy over the official in city, buys the garrison troops, so long as the price is high enough, some people are willing to betray, after all, is drawing cash next door Empire to ramble half a lifetime also ratio dead in Kislev this desolated places comes well. Similarly, so long as money is enough, but can also hire foreign Unit, is asks the mercenaries to battle, like this, can take over the city without firing a single bullet. Matter that so long as money can solve, is not the matter...... was a pity, North is not wealthy, supports this huge allied armies to need the huge military spending, the extra fund do not think. 当然,夺下城市还有另外一个办法,就是用钱……用钱收买城中的官员,收买守军,只要价格足够高,就会有人愿意背叛,毕竟,拿着钱到隔壁帝国逍遥半辈子也比死在基斯里夫这片荒芜之地来得好。同样,只要金钱足够,还可以雇佣外籍部队,也就是请雇佣军作战,这样,也可以不费一兵一卒攻下城市。只要钱可以解决的事,都不算事……可惜,北境并不富裕,支撑起这支庞大的联军原本就需要庞大的军费开支,额外的资金更别想了。 Is looking at Erengrad under dark clouds, why did not know, presents the Dannis facial features at present suddenly. She as before is the 7 or 8-year-old appearance, innocent appearance. Stretching out the arms to hug...... is fierce awakening, Dannis 14 years old, but oneself many years has not seen her, saw her previous time after the Erengrad rebellion ended, was also has four years, even, even the Dannis appearance, somewhat forgot. 望着阴云下的厄仑格拉德,不知道为什么,眼前却恍然出现了丹尼斯的面容。她依旧是七八岁的模样,天真烂漫的样子。张开双臂就要抱抱……可是猛的惊醒,丹尼斯已经十四岁了,而自己也已经好多年没有见过她了,上一次见到她还是在厄仑格拉德叛乱结束后,距今也已经有四年时间了,甚至,连丹尼斯的容貌,都有些遗忘了。 While thinks deeply about time, the ranger transmitted the latest information, Rod opened the letter of seal under the vision that the people paid attention. One the small line of clear phrases heave in sight — — 【We won, Empire Order of the Black Rose catches up to support at crucial moments, the Erengrad navy was defeated thoroughly, attacks and sinks gunboat eight, captures gunboat four, another two gunboats break through. Admiral Erengrad Dizma is captured.】 The starting to write place writes the Alvis name. Rod knows, this is the Alvis personal letter. 正当思索的时候,游骑兵传来了最新的情报,罗德在众人关注的目光下打开了密封的信件。一小行清晰的字眼映入眼帘——【我们胜利了,帝国黑玫瑰骑士团在关键时刻赶来支援,厄仑格拉德海军被彻底击败,击沉炮舰八艘,俘虏炮舰四艘,另有两艘炮舰突围。厄仑格拉德海军上将迪斯马被俘。】落笔处写着阿尔维斯的名字。罗德知道,这是阿尔维斯的亲笔信。 „What does above write?” “上面写着什么？” The officers worry to inquire, in this sensitive and special time node, any information is the important information. 众将士着急询问着,在这个敏感而特殊的时间节点上,任何信息都是重要的信息。 „The Erengrad navy was defeated.” “厄仑格拉德海军被击败了。” Rod briefly replied. Finishes speaking, the front resounded the intermittent cheers of many Officer North. The victory of naval battle without doubt is present difficult position the war of collapsing, the powerful Erengrad navy was defeated continually, then does not have any besieging that can prevent the North allied armies. It greatly raised the morale of regiment. What is more important, the tactic will be adjusted, the storm becomes no longer will, can definitely besiege a city, received exchange for the greatest victory by the smallest casualties. 罗德简短回答到。话音刚落,面前响起了众多北境军官们的阵阵欢呼声。海战的胜利无疑就是眼下困境的破局之战,连强大的厄仑格拉德海军都被击败了,便没有什么可以阻挡北境联军的围攻。它极大的鼓舞了军团的士气。更重要的是,战术将被调整,强攻变得不再必要,完全可以围城,以最小的伤亡换取最大的胜利。 Rod also thinks like this. The Erengrad city has characteristics, that is its harbor is a deepwater port, depends on this harbor, it can definitely obtain the sufficient supplies. Initially the Kislev regular army does not want to siege the Erengrad city, considers this issue. Therefore, without the fleet, this harbor is not then able to be protected, so long as blocks it, the city is not then able to obtain the supplies, in Erengrad that on the ruins reconstructs is unable compared with initially Erengrad of that peak, its commodity and grain in storage are most only enough maintain for several weeks. The present range arrives in the winter returns sometime, Rod knows, oneself can wait completely. 罗德也是这样想的。厄仑格拉德城有个特点,那就是它的港湾是深水港,靠着这座港口,它完全可以得到充足的补给。当初基斯里夫的正规军不想围困厄仑格拉德城,就是考虑到这个问题。所以,一旦没有了舰队,这座港口便无法得到保护,只要将它封锁起来,城市便无法获得补给,在废墟上重建的厄仑格拉德根本无法和当初那个巅峰时期的厄仑格拉德相比,它的物资和存粮最多只够维持几个星期。现在距离冬季到来还有一段时间,罗德知道,自己完全等得起。 „Reinforcement fortification and ensure does not put a carriage to enter a city!” “加固防御工事,确保不放一辆马车进城！” Stands in same place, Rod issued at the scene orders. The siege warfare turned into the besieged city war. He must encircle watertight Erengrad, treated the rebel when like Katarin initially. Stated differently, initially bloody Tzarina prepared to massacre city, but Rod does not prepare this. Present Erengrad was not in the past that huge Erengrad city, in the city so many civilians, have not needed too much grain to force-feed them. Won the given name of liberator to come importantly compared with anything. 站在原地,罗德当场发布命令到。攻城战变成了围城战。他要将厄仑格拉德围得水泄不通,像当初卡特琳娜对待叛徒时那样。不同的是,当初血腥的女沙皇准备屠城,而罗德并不准备这样。现在的厄仑格拉德并不是当年那个庞大的厄仑格拉德城,城里并没有那么多平民,不需要太多粮食就可以喂饱他们。赢得解放者的名号比起什么都来得重要。 But fortunately, the Greenskin invasion has not caused the collapse of North agriculture, except that Watch Fort falls to the enemy, in other Lord territories, various industries influences are not big, therefore, the organizational strategy commodity is not a difficult matter. 而幸运的是,绿皮入侵并没有导致北境农业的崩溃,除了守望堡沦陷,其他领主的领地里,各行业影响并不大,所以,组织战略物资并不是一件难事。 „Collects more grain, once the city gate opens, we must deal with the civilians who over ten thousand are big and hungry.” “筹集更多的粮食,一旦城门打开,我们必须应对上万饥肠辘辘的平民。” „Rod, do you plan to rescue these civilians?” “罗德,你打算救助那些平民？” Jaeger is frowning to ask. Similarly the doubts expression appears on each face. 吉格尔皱着眉头问到。同样疑惑的表情浮现在每个人脸上。 „Yes, we must guarantee the food supply of this city in a short time, when the production trade return right track of city, evacuates again. The unnecessary population can shift to each castle places.” “是的,短时间内我们必须保证这座城市的粮食供应,等到城市的生产贸易回归正轨,再撤离。多余的人口可以转移到各个城堡进行安置。” Rod replied by the steadfast tone. 罗德以坚定不移的口吻回答到。 „Perhaps this is a big fund invests.” “恐怕这又是一大笔资金投入。” „Procurement expenditure and transportation cost...... in the winter of this year feared that is a suffering.” “采购费用、运输成本……今年冬天怕是一场煎熬。” Deiger said. 狄盖尔接话到。 „Vision lengthens the distant point, the brothers, the war costs a great deal of money, it to us is a suffering, regarding Katarin similarly is the suffering. Moreover, that Vampire Queen day will not compare us to feel better, the heavy snow destroyed the Kislev suburb big farmland, above the grain reserves, our advantages are even older than her. Endured, endured this days, once we gained the final victory, at that time then looked again, you will feel the pain of now suffering was not anything.” “眼光放长远点,兄弟们,战争费钱,它对我们来说是一场煎熬,对于卡特琳娜来说同样是煎熬。而且,那个吸血鬼女王的日子不会比我们好过,大雪摧毁了基斯里夫郊外大片农田,粮食储备上面,我们的优势甚至比她大。忍一忍,熬过这段日子,一旦我们取得了最终的胜利,那时候再回头看,你们会觉得现在所遭受的痛苦并不算什么。” Rod is grasping the fist, to people air-blowing. Although, the war funds also make Rod feel to love dearly, six years, make determined efforts Blackhammer Fort that develops, will consume greatly in this war . Moreover, so long as the fight drags for two years, by the North economic strength, will then feel that presses strength mountain to be big. However, leeway that jacta est alea, has not then taken back, everyone is betting. 罗德握着拳头,给众人鼓气。虽然,战争经费也让罗德感到心疼,六年时间,励精图治发展起来的黑锤堡,在这场战争中将会消耗巨大,而且,只要战斗拖上两年,以北境的经济实力,便会感到压力山大。但是,骰子已经掷出,便没有收回的余地,所有人都在赌。
