They march in the vast big snowfield, continual has not stood still for half a month, the army cannot withstand tiredly, but no soldier complained, no one gets angry. On the contrary, on all faces wrote all over the anticipation. 他们在一望无际的大雪原上行军,连续半个月不曾停歇,军队疲乏不堪,但是没有士兵埋怨,更没有人发怒。相反,所有人脸上都写满了期待。 After looting the Hell Pit treasure house, Kiess Leef Northern Expeditionary Army is drawing a car(riage) car(riage) gold buried treasure, returns to within the boundaries from north. So long as Wall, they were safe. 洗劫了地狱深坑宝库之后,基斯利夫北伐军拉着一车车黄金宝藏,从北地返回境内。只要到了长城,他们就安全了。 Meanwhile, so long as there, had place that can spend. At least the liquor and fresh bread had. Again toward south, is Blackhammer Fort, there is the North biggest military castle. The regiment there recuperation, in the meantime, countless merchants will gather there, waits for this group to triumphal return to turn over to the soldier. 同时,只要到了那里,就有可以消费的地方了。至少酒和新鲜的面包就有了。再往南,就是黑锤堡,那里是北境最大的军事城堡。军团将在那里休整,同时,无数的商人将汇聚在那里,等着这帮凯旋而归的士兵。 They will trade the spoils of war, exchange the true currency . Moreover, there, they can stroll in the city the best brothel, drinks to heart's content the high-quality vodka. 他们将会将战利品交易,兑换成真正的流通货币,而且,在那里,他们可以逛城里最好的妓院,畅饮高质量的伏特加酒。 Again then, they will go to Erengrad, accepts the local citizen to worship frantically. Only thinks of these, everyone is then impossible to have anything to complain. 再然后,他们将前往厄仑格拉德,接受当地市民最狂热的崇拜。光是想到这些,所有人便不可能有什么埋怨。 „Told me, did Gelter, how you know the ad hoc squad? And how to join their?” “告诉我,盖尔特,你是怎么知道特遣小队的？并且怎么加入他们的？” Rod sits on the big black warhorse, is asking side Mage with the vigorous sound. 罗德坐在高大的黑色战马上,用浑厚的声音问着身边的巫师。 Although the sound is not loud, is disclosing an irresistible dignity. 虽然声音不大,却透露着一股不可抗拒的威严。 Gelter felt that side north Great Lord is interrogating oneself, meaning that but the list has not interrogated from the expression. His tone made Gelter feel a serious constriction. 盖尔特感觉身边的北方大领主在质问自己,但是单从措辞上面却没有丝毫质问的意思。只是他的语气让盖尔特感到了一种沉重的压迫感。 Gelter deeply inspires, thinks of the indifferent appearance diligently. Then careless reply — — 盖尔特深吸了一口气,努力装着无所谓的样子。而后漫不经心的回答—— „I hear from Brandi Otto there accidentally.” “我从布兰迪奥托那里偶然听说的。” Then, a while they have not spoken again, Rod makes Gelter mood uneasy silent. 说完,好一阵子他们都没有再说话,罗德的沉默让盖尔特心情忐忑不安起来。 However, saw that Great Lord has not closely examined again, Gelter relaxes finally. 但是,看到大领主没有再追问下去,盖尔特终于还是松了一口气。 However, Rod had been clear that at present this young Empire Mage is lying. Matter oneself of Hell Pit death squad never mentioned to Brandi Otto, this Empire rich merchant, always only involved the economic domain, the military was not his specialty, oneself has also never discussed this matter with him. 然而,罗德早已清楚眼前这个年轻的帝国巫师在撒谎。地狱深坑暗杀队的事自己从未向布兰迪奥托说起,这位帝国富商,从来都只涉及经济领域,军事不是他的专长,自己也从未跟他商量过这件事。 Gelter so replied that thinks is he thinks the most reasonable explanation, because he and Brandi Otto came from Empire capital Altdorf, and is the aristocrat status, two people relate well are also well-known. Moreover Brandi Otto is the Rod side personal adviser, this who was clear. 盖尔特这般回答想必是他认为最合理的解释,因为他和布兰迪奥托都来自帝国首都阿尔道夫,并且都是贵族身份,两人关系不错也是众人皆知。而且布兰迪奥托是罗德身边的贴身顾问,这点谁都清楚。 Therefore, in Gelter opinion, this is the best explanation not for strange. 于是,在盖尔特看来,这是最佳的解释也不为怪。 Rod has not closely examined again is because does not think, does not need. The person of lying, pressed for an answer him, will only make him weave more rumors to cover the initial lie, in the end exhausting tired oneself. But wants to reveal person who aspiration, you do not need to press for an answer, he will also say. 罗德没有再追问则是因为不想,也没必要。撒谎之人,逼问他,只会让他编织更多的谎言来掩盖最初的谎言,到头来累人累己。而想吐露心声的人,你不必逼问,他也会说。 Therefore, Rod no longer closely examines, when which day of Mage wants saying that he naturally can say. Naturally, did not need him saying that Rod has actually also guessed correctly some. 所以,罗德不再追问,等哪天巫师想说了,他自然会说。当然,不用他多说,罗德其实也已经猜到一些了。 Two days later, triumphal returned to turn over to the army who to arrive in the Wall under foot, big city wall as always stretched across entire North just like the snowy peak generally, but presented before the people, then also wanted the big two times of white city walls compared with Empire capital Altdorf. 两天后,凯旋而归的大军抵达了长城脚下,一如既往的高大城墙宛如雪峰一般横跨整个北境,而呈现在众人面前的,则是比帝国首都阿尔道夫还要高大两倍的白色城墙。 In the black crow fort of Wall under foot, the exhausted soldier tasted the warm liquor water and food for the first time. 在长城脚下的黑鸦堡,疲惫的士兵第一次尝到了温热的酒水和食物。 Rod orders big Unit to start off in this recuperation two days again, while convenient under the oneself also inspection Wall construction until now achievement and stronghold defend the work. 罗德命令大部队在此休整两天再上路,顺便自己也视察下长城修建至今的成果和城寨防御工作。 Local commander Warwick asked Rod to enter the camp to inspect respectfully, accompanies the Rod same place, Bear Knight big Captain Shibeis. 当地司令官沃里克恭敬的请罗德进营视察,陪同罗德一起的,还有熊骑士大队长西贝斯。 The black crow fort is the same like his name, dark gloomy and cold. In this almost in the castle of place of winter, coldly will be forever closely associated with the death, whole time in a year cannot see the clear sky, the haze and wind and snow and this ice-cold fort year to year are partners. Meanwhile, in the castle is raising many crows, the wartime, these black birds are then responsible for feeding in the capital the frontline information, continues regional information contact work. 黑鸦堡如同他的名字一样,黑暗阴冷。在这几乎永冬之地的城堡内,寒冷与死亡如影随形,一年中的大部分时间看不到晴空,阴霾与风雪与这座冰冷要塞常年为伴。同时,城堡内养着许多乌鸦,战时,这些黑色的鸟便负责将前线的情报传回首都,也承接起各地的情报联络工作。 „Coldness as always, difficult. Laborious you, Wall guards.” “一如既往的寒冷,艰苦。辛苦你们了,长城的卫士们。” Commander-in-chief Warwick must present the work report and financial statement, but was declined by Rod. Is working as the surface of people, Rod loses the account book and work diary on the table, then arrives in front of everyone, is concerned the body and state of mind of people. 总司令沃里克原本要呈上工作汇报和财务报表,但是被罗德回绝了。当着众人的面,罗德只是将账本和工作日志丢在了桌上,而后走到每个人面前,关切起众人的身体和精神状态。 This small movement is seemingly simple, actually actually is also intends, but. Throws down the account book not to look, not really complete trust, but expressed trust of oneself subordinating the subordinate, this petty action people watched, the Rod goal was also achieved. 这个小小的动作看似简单,其实却也是有意而为之。丢下账本不看,不是真的完全信任,只是表达自己对直属部下的信任,这个小动作众人看在眼里,罗德的目的也就达到了。 Next, drops out the financial account book not to look, first cared the situation of guard, this won gratitude of Officer Wall. 其次,抛下财务账本不看,第一时间关心起守卫的情况,这更加赢得了长城军官们的感激。 North Great Lord, is the Kiess Leef's true hierarch, actually cares about the life of grass-roots officer personally, this to ordinary military officer, was a supreme glory. 北境大领主,也是基斯利夫真正的掌权者,竟然亲自关心起基层军官的生活,这对普通军官来说,也是一种至上的荣耀了。 After exchanging greetings cares, Rod and commander Warwick alone entered the office. Entered the office, the wooden door is then closed. The atmosphere seriously is suddenly sad. 寒暄关心完以后,罗德和司令官沃里克单独进了办公室。一进办公室,木门便被关了起来。气氛陡然严肃沉闷起来。 „Boris, hadn't found?” “鲍里斯,还是没有找到吗？” Ignites the cigar, Rod asks the matter that this oneself most cared about heavyheartedly. 点着雪茄,罗德忧心忡忡的问起了这件自己最关心的事。 Warwick also obviously felt that the atmosphere is not right, but he not, therefore terrified, he carried out at present this man's order, sticks to the principle, then has a clear conscience. According to Rod directs principle — — of Wall garrison troops, so long as does not do to violate Kiess Leef interests the matter, is not the military deserter, takes on to guard the heavy responsibility of northern Wall, is not the dereliction of duty. All enter the person who Wall guards, how regardless of the former life experience, in the Wall under foot, the people all were the ordinary soldier, soldier. On this basis, the local commander has the right to order to do anything. 沃里克也明显感觉到气氛不对劲,但是他并没有因此惶恐不安,他执行了眼前这个男人的命令,坚守原则,便问心无愧。按照罗德指挥长城守军的原则——只要不做违背基斯利夫利益的事,不做逃兵,担起守卫北方长城的重任,便不算失职。一切进入长城戍守的人,无论之前身世如何,在长城脚下,众人皆是普通士兵,战士。在此基础上,当地司令官有权下令做任何事。 Warwick then does this. When Beastman invasion, he exercised oneself to take the power of castle commander-in-chief. Traded the Wall security by the smallest sacrifice. This does not violate any principle essentially. 沃里克便是这样做的。当野兽人入侵时,他行使了自己作为城堡最高指挥官的权力。以最小的牺牲换来长城的安全。这从本质上并不违背任何原则。 Naturally, Rod is not blames this young border defense commander, if blamed, as losing Boris „chief criminal”, Warwick had been infiltrated the dungeon, suffered injustice. But Rod continuation makes this old bones guard Wall here. In the original intention must strengthen the oneself law, all by the Wall safety, Kiess Leef safety are the first places. 当然,罗德并不是来责备这个小小的边防指挥官的,若要责备,作为弄丢鲍里斯的“罪魁祸首”,沃里克早已被打入地牢,不见天日。而罗德却继续让这个老骨头在这里驻守长城。本意上也是要加强自己的法令,一切以长城安危,基斯利夫安全为首位。 „Had not found, the ranger every week must go out to go on patrol, but has achieved nothing until now.” “没找到,游骑兵每周都要外出巡逻,但是至今一无所获。” Warwick is replying calmly. 沃里克镇定的回答着。 „Iced north the front forest to look? Has the Troll Mountains under foot, looked?” “冰锋森林以北找过了吗？还有巨魔山脉脚下,找过了吗？” Is nipping the cigar, Rod depressed asking. The sound is not loud, but actually just like a heavy hammer, raps in the commander Warwick's heart. 咬着雪茄,罗德沉闷的问到。声音并不大,但却犹如一把重锤,敲击在司令官沃里克的心头。 „Ices the front forest in a year , only then two moon/month can pass through, other time, that forest all frozen, no one can the season beyond summer across the place of that death. At the speed of ranger, at least requires half a month time across that forest, turns back and wants half a month again. In other words, even if across the forest, we still only has one month of search time. Hopes very uncertainly. Moreover, this is in having the situation of the preparation and in commodity, Boris in the past was, the body did not have the commodity supplies, at all not possible......” “冰锋森林一年中只有两个月的时间可以穿越,其他时间,那片森林皆被冰封,没有人可以在夏季以外的时节穿过那片死亡之地。以游骑兵的速度,穿过那片森林至少要半个月的时间,再折回又要半个月。也就是说,即便穿过森林,我们也只有一个月的搜寻时间。希望十分渺茫。而且,这还是在有充分准备和物资的情况下,鲍里斯当年是独自一人,身上没有物资补给,根本不可能……” „Ordinary soldier is impossible to achieve, does not represent him is not not possible to achieve. Initially, he alone slaughtered an entire Beastman regiment, didn't you feel not possible?” “普通士兵不可能做到的,不代表他不可能做到。当初,他一个人屠杀一整支野兽人战团,你们不是也觉得不可能？” The Rod words made Warwick again speechless silent. He knows, at present this with legendary Lord of vicissitudes, does not pursue the responsibility past military to go out to direct, but is blames oneself to searching for the work does not make contribution. 罗德的话让沃里克再次无语沉默了。他知道,眼前这位久经沧桑的传奇领主,并不是追责当年的军事外出指挥,而是责备自己对搜寻工作的不尽力。 Average man with every effort with this North Lord with every effort is two matters...... this is the place of Warwick most difficult office. The average people no one are willing to take risk across the ice front forest, let alone must wander in the north Barbarian Norsca person domain, searches for a person who is almost impossible to live. 只是,常人的尽力和这位北境领主的尽力是两码事……这才是沃里克最难办的地方。普通人谁也不愿意冒险穿过冰锋森林,更别说还要在北方蛮族诺斯卡的人地盘上游荡,搜寻一个几乎不可能活下来的人。 „Ok, Warwick, continued your work, easily do not give a matter to draw a conclusion. Human is the race that easily does not concede, we create many is not not possible, have a look at your present city wall, before completing, everyone said that it was not possible. However, we are doing as before, even if with entire one generation of time, must do. Compares in constructing Wall, attacks and captures Hell Pit, you felt the matter that you do is more difficult than others?” “好了,沃里克,继续你的工作,不要轻易给一件事下结论。人类是一个不轻易服输的种族,我们创造了许多不可能,看看你眼前的这座城墙,建成之前,所有人都说它是不可能的。但是,我们依旧在做,哪怕用整整一代人的时间,也要做下去。相比于建长城,攻克地狱深坑,你觉得你做的事比别人困难吗？” Rod coldly speaks. Warwick expression solidifies there, just like a frozen stiff statue, did not say a word. It is not able to say a word...... 罗德冷冷说到。沃里克则表情凝固在那里,宛如一尊冻僵的雕像,一言不发。也无法多发一言……
