教皇之位依旧空缺。Threebishopssitabreast in row, is still Maynefirstopens the mouth, „heard that Kingdom of Eternal Winterdid leavemoved*chaotically?”
三位主教并排而坐,依然是梅恩先开口,“听说永冬王国出了一些动*乱?”„Guardinghas been handlingthismatter there Judgement Army, whatleadingisthisHigh Priest.”Tayfunanswersaid.
“驻守在那儿的审判军已经在处理这件事了,带队的是科本大祭司。”泰弗伦回答道。„Because ofwhat matter?”
“到底是因为何事?”„Alsois notthesewins over the Church'ssediment,”Heatherhas blown a whistling, „after queenwas beheaded, thesenoblejoiningChurch, changein abundancebecameChurchhigh-level--because ofyourcompromiseplan, SirMayne. Theyhitare seizing the witchpretenceto plunderin the citywantonly, in the city the guardalsolooks but not see, makes the people unable to accept, naturally triggersrebounds.”
“还不是那些被拉拢进教会的渣滓吗,”希瑟吹了个口哨,“女王被斩首后,那些贵族纷纷加入教会,摇身一变成为了教会高层——都是因为你的妥协计划,梅恩大人。他们打着抓捕女巫的幌子在城内大肆搜刮,城内卫队也视而不见,闹得民众无法接受,自然会引起反弹。”„It is not myplan, SirHeather,” the Maynedisgruntledsay/way, „thisisHis Excellency the Popedecree. As the matter standswecanuseall of shortesttimegainkingdom, butdoes not continueto compete--inthemalsomanyto have the key manwithnoble, the words that wins overhave the helptousgreatly. As forthesevermin, without the privilege that the blood relationshipinherits, will only needonegeneration of thento eliminate.”
“不是我的计划,希瑟大人,”梅恩不悦道,“这是教皇冕下的旨意。这样一来我们才能用最短的时间获取王国的一切,而不是继续和贵族较劲——他们之中也不乏有杰出人才,拉拢过来的话对我们大有助益。至于那些蛀虫,没有血统继承的特权,只需一代人便会淘汰。”„Good, sinceyourHis Excellency the Popelifted, Iwas not manysayanything.”Heathershrugs, „the defaulter who theseruin the Churchreputationmustgiveme.”
“好吧,既然你连教皇冕下都抬出来了,我就不多说什么了。”希瑟耸耸肩,“不过那些败坏教会名声的违纪者一定要交给我。”MaynelookstoBishopTayfun, the latterhesitates saying that „Isuggestedtemporarilydoes not processthem, after suppressingmoves*is chaotic, to be ableviolation of regulationsnobleto put under house arrest, after allshortly afterjoiningChurch, nowuses the knifetowardthem, may cause the noblesocial stratum the common uneasiness.”梅恩望向泰弗伦主教,后者沉吟道,“我建议暂不处理他们,镇压完动*乱后可以将违纪贵族软禁起来,毕竟才加入教会不久,现在就朝他们动刀子,可能会引起贵族阶层的普遍不安。”„It is not good!”Heatherpounds on the table saying that „in meets the rules and regulationsnot to allowto violate, anybyplundering of Churchnameimplementationis the grave offenses . Moreover the one whogoverns the regulation and arbitrationisI!”
“不行!”希瑟一拍桌子道,“会内规章决不允许违背,任何以教会名义实施的抢掠都是重罪,而且掌管律法和仲裁的是我!”„At this timemusttake the larger situation into account......”
“这种时候要以大局为重……”„Isaidisgeneral situation.”Heatherhas interrupted the Tayfunwordsdirectly, „do not forgetusto create the fairandjustimagebyanythingacrossEternal Winter, ifdid not givethesedegeneratesto attackat this time, the Eternal Winterpeoplewill lose the confidencetous! ThisisChurch'sfoundation--, butis notthatcrowd of damnnoble. Ifyoudo not approve, Iwill ask for instructionsHis Excellency the Popedirectly!”
“我说的就是大局。”希瑟直接打断了泰弗伦的话,“别忘了我们是靠什么才在永冬各地树立起公正和正义形象的,如果这种时候不给予那些败类严厉打击,永冬的人民会对我们失去信心!这才是教会的根基——而不是那群该死的贵族。如果你们不认同,我将直接请示教皇冕下!”
The Popehas no free timeto worryforthismatter, Church'sfoundationnotonpeople, butlay inhad the howformidablestrength. Maynesighed, put out a handto hintTayfun should not be excited, „did thatmakethisHigh Priestsend under custodynewHoly Cityto stand the trialthem?”
教皇没空为这种事操心,教会的根基也不在民众身上,而在于拥有了多么强大的力量。梅恩叹了口气,伸手示意泰弗伦不要过于激动,“那让科本大祭司把他们押送回新圣城接受审判?”„Does not need, Ito go toonepersonallywell,”Heathersaid,„recentlyherematteralsofinished, it is expected that about 2-3monthscancome back. Triesthismatter, naturallyismorepeopleseesis better, the Eternal WinterKingdom Capitalsnow and icestage seems a goodplace.”
“不必了,我亲自去一趟就好,”希瑟说道,“最近这边的事也忙完了,预计两三个月左右就能回来。审判这种事,自然是越多人看到越好,永冬王都的冰雪台似乎是个不错的地方。”„Did youdetermine?”Mayneknits the brows saying that „the presentmaynot have the unnecessarycaptainto protectyouto go toEternal Winter, meets the Exceed Witchwords, youwere dangerous.”
“你确定?”梅恩皱眉道,“现在可没有多余的指挥者保护你去永冬,遇到超凡女巫的话,你就危险了。”„Whichcomesthat manyExceed Witch,”Heatherthinks otherwise saying that „gavemeoneteam of Judgement Armyto suffice.”
“哪来那么多的超凡女巫,”希瑟不以为然道,“给我一队审判军就够了。”„Ifyouinsist.”Maynedoes not wantto pesterthistopicagain, „my herehas a bad news. The ChurcharmywhenattackingKingdom of Wolf HeartBroken Tooth Castlehad the accident/surprise, lost more than 20God Punishment Armyand more than 100Judgement Army. Had not been attacked and capturedtopresentBroken Tooth Castle.”
“如果你坚持的话。”梅恩不想再纠缠这个话题,“我这儿有个坏消息。教会军队在进攻狼心王国的断牙堡时出了意外,损失了20多位神罚军和100余名审判军。到现在断牙堡仍未被攻克。”„More than 20God Punishment Army?”Tayfunstares saying that „whois a captain?”
“20多位神罚军?”泰弗伦瞪眼道,“谁是指挥者?”„Bell, shedied.”
“铃铛,她已经死了。”„Did captaindie in battle? It seems liketheyalsoreallyfacedextraordinarilychallenge.”Heatherinterestedto say. „Onelosesthese manyGod Punishment Army, SirRyanlooked like the headache.”
“指挥者战死?看来他们还真遇到了不得了的挑战。”希瑟饶有兴趣道。“一下损失掉这么多神罚军,奥雷恩大人看来得头痛了。”„Cannotblamehim, the Broken Tooth Castleterrainis special, city gateopensin the mountains, the lift-offhasthreezhang (3.33 m)fullyhigh( approximately10meters). Theyhave destroyedwooden bridge of passing through the gate, but alsohas drawn support fromalchemistsomething.”Mayneanswered, „according to what is believed reported that after theyput up the wooden ladder, God Punishment Armyjustcrawledto sufferstrangeflameattack--isin the pipe on city gatespoutsbigpile of whitesolidsfirst, afterwardfumedto be on fire, the flamestuck togetheron the body, could not throw offcannot suppress, tillscorched the person. Now can theyare contacting with the Churchfollower in city, lookinside and outside the converging attack.”
“不能怪他,断牙堡地形特殊,城门开在山中间,离地足有三丈(约10米)高。他们又摧毁了进门的木桥,还借助了炼金师的一些玩意。”梅恩解释道,“据信汇报,他们搭起木梯后,神罚军刚爬上去就遭受到了诡异火焰的攻击——先是城门上的管子里喷出一大堆白色固体,随后发烟起火,火焰黏着在身上,甩不掉也扑不灭,直到将人烧焦为止。现在他们正在联系城内的教会信徒,看看能不能内外夹击。”„Idare saying that the churchaffirmation in cityhad been conquered by killing,”Heathercurls the lip, „wantsto attack, sendssomepeopleto fill is the correct principle. alchemistthesethinghave not been ableto preparemassively, filled inconsumeup.”
“我敢说城里的教堂肯定已被血洗啦,”希瑟撇撇嘴,“想要攻进去,多派些人填才是正理。炼金师的那些玩意从来就没有过能大量制备的吧,填一填就耗光了。”„ThatisGod Punishment Army!” The Tayfunair/Qiresults in the beardto shake, „youknow that transformsGod Punishment Armydifficultly? Nowthousandpeople, iffor the unificationmainlandmakes the God Punishment Armybucklemore than half, whatwedo useto resistMonths of Demons? Not to mentionlaterDevil.”
“那是神罚军!”泰弗伦气得胡子一抖一抖的,“你知道转化一个神罚军有多难吗?现在千人都不到,如果为了统一大陆让神罚军折损过半的话,我们用什么抵挡邪魔之月?更别提之后的魔鬼了。”„Do not wantto fight,”Mayneleaves the sound said, „Itoldyouthisnews, did not makeyouargue the attackmethod. ChurchneedmanyGod Punishment Army, Eternal Winterhas been controlledbyChurchat presentnow, something can also be donejustifiablily. In the pastwasevery yearshipstwice " seed " , butnow, Irequestto increaseonetime, springreceived the Months of Demonsinfluence, the lengthwas inconsistent, thereforestarting from summer, musthavea number ofseedsto escort toHoly City each quarter, will transform the ceremonycorrespondinglyalso to be held once. Thismattergivesyouto be responsible, SirTayfun.”
“不要争了,”梅恩出声道,“我将这个消息告诉你们,不是让你们争论进攻手段的。教会目前需要更多的神罚军,如今永冬已经被教会掌控,有些事情也可以做得更名正言顺一点。以往都是每年运送两次「种子」,但现在,我要求增加一次,春天收到邪月影响,长短不一致,所以从夏天起,每个季度都要有一批种子送往圣城,转化仪式也会相应多举行一次。这件事就交给你负责,泰弗伦大人。”„But, notthat manyorphansandbabiescanaccept,”seniorbishoptraces the beard, „is notallpeoplewill escort to the church the child of rejection.”
“可是,并没有那么多孤儿和婴儿可以收容啊,”老主教摸了摸胡子,“不是所有人都会把舍弃的孩子送往教堂的。”„Thereforeyouwant the meansto strive. Eternal WinterisChurchfor a long timemanages, believermostkingdoms, ifthislandsdo not have the meansto provideenoughmanpowercontinually, otherthreekingdomswill digestto be only slower. Don't forget, inrevolt that unifying the mainlandprocesspresents, mustsubsidesbyJudgement ArmyandGod Punishment Army.”
“所以你想要办法去争取。永冬已经是教会经营最久、教徒最多的王国了,如果连这片土地都没办法提供足够的人力,其他三个王国消化起来只会更慢。别忘了,在统一大陆过程中出现的反抗,都要靠审判军和神罚军去平息。”„Personhas,”Heatherturns upwards the corners of the mouth, the child who „onstreetroams aboutare equally manyon and stray catwild dog. Iheard that alsohasblackstreetMouseto recruitthesechildjoiningspecially, is usedto train the pickpocket and attachmentperson, to smuggle the peddleror the scapegoat.

“人并不是没有,”希瑟翘起嘴角,“街上流浪的孩子就跟野猫野狗一样多。我听说还有黑街老鼠们专门招募这些孩子加入,用来培养成扒手、接头人、走私贩子或者替罪羊。贵族未除时还能提老鼠遮风挡雨,现在拜梅恩大人所赐,他们都成了教会的一份子。阴沟没了盖,老鼠还能躲去哪里?如果派出审判军将地下势力一网打尽,我想你能收获不少孩子,同时肃清渣滓可以给人民一个良好的印象,外带震慑下那些蠢蠢欲动的贵族,一举三得的事,不是吗?”Trulyis the goodmethod, Maynethinks, no matterhertemperis extreme, when facingissue can always find outcountermeasure-- to besidessomewordsneglectmostquicklydesirably. „Pressesthismethodto implement. In brief, before the autumn, wemustoccupyKingdom of Wolf Heartthroughout, maintainsJudgement Army of orderexcept forguarding, otherarmiesmustrecallHermes, defendsthis year'sMonths of Demons--thistime, the enemywill be only more formidable.”
确实是不错的手段,梅恩想,不管她性子有多么偏激,面对问题时总能最快想出对策——除了有些话要刻意忽略外。“就按这个方法实施吧。总之,在秋天之前,我们要占据狼心王国全境,除了驻守维持秩序的审判军,其他部队都必须调回赫尔梅斯,防御今年的邪魔之月——这一次,敌人只会更加强大。”AlthoughTayfundoes not prefergreatly, butnoddedfinally, noble that „when the time comes the benefitis damagedjumps the protestnot to blamemenot to remindyou. Moreover, Kingdom of Dawnnoted the trend of neighboring countryat present, noble in manycityhave aimed atChurch the spearhead, the localityalsooccurredhas robbed the event of burning downchurch. Isuggested that organizationfollowersevacuatetemporarily, does not needto wastetheminthisconflict.”泰弗伦虽然不大情愿,但最终还是点了点头,“到时候利益受损的贵族跳出来抗议可别怪我没提醒你们。另外,晨曦王国目前已经注意到了邻国的动向,不少城市里的贵族把矛头对准了教会,个别地方还发生了抢劫焚烧教堂的事件。我建议组织信徒暂时撤离,没必要把他们浪费在这种冲突中。”„No, theymustresist,” the Maynevetosaid,„believersacrificedmany, welaterlaunch the retaliation the reasonto be fuller. Thisis not the waste, butis the seedling of ignition, are not manyregarding the Churchbelievers, the foundation not deepkingdom, will retreatappearsChurchwill be only weaker.”
“不,他们必须抵抗到底,”梅恩否决道,“教徒牺牲得越多,我们之后展开报复的理由才越充分。这不是浪费,而是引火之苗,对于教会信众不多,根基不深的王国,撤退只会显得教会更加虚弱。”„Good, Ialsopropose,”Tayfunlets go saying that „finallyisGreycastle...... Yeah, youlooked that”hetakes outonevolume of letter paperto losefrom the sleevetoMaynein front.
“好吧,我也只是提一提而已,”泰弗伦摊手道,“最后是灰堡……嗯,你们自己看吧,”他从袖子里取出一卷信纸丢到梅恩面前。Maynelaunchedto sweeptwo, thislettercame fromQueen of Clear WaterGarcia Wimbledonown handwritingunexpectedly. Quick, hiseyebrowwrinkled.梅恩展开扫了两眼,这封信居然来自于碧水女王嘉西亚.温布顿的亲笔。很快,他眉毛皱了起来。„Did shestrangle the Tikhapriestunexpectedly?”
“她竟然绞死了迪卡祭司?”„Alsodid the believersto feed the fish,”Tayfun added that „churchwas also opened the flat land. Sheshoulddiscover the side effect of pill.”
“还把一干教徒都喂了鱼,”泰弗伦补充道,“教堂也被拆成了平地。她应该是发现了药丸的副作用。”Heathersmacks the lips, „Ialready said that thattype of thingunceasinglysupplemented, the effectwill be also getting more and more low, finallyperishesuntil the feebleness. Used to demolish the opposite party the armywiththistype of thingto be actually good, but the effectappears, the opposite partyalsoknowsanyidea that Churchhas. Moreoverwhattroubles, Iremember that beforehandhas the informationto mention, hersubordinatehow many have not taken the pill? Hadactuallymucheatstothatcrowd of southern regionbarbarian.”希瑟咂咂嘴,“我早就说了嘛,那种玩意就算不断补充,效果也会越来越低,最后直到衰弱而亡。拿这种东西用来摧垮对方的军队倒是不错,可效果一浮现出来,对方也知道教会打的什么主意了。而且麻烦的是,我记得之前有情报提到,她的手下并没有多少服用药丸的吧?倒是有不少给那群南境的野蛮人吃了。”„Over1000, shedid not saythisaccountaboveus.”Mayneputs down the letter paper, „simplylaughable, not havingChurchto support, can shebecomeQueenPort of Clear Water? Timothy Wimbledonwhere? Receivedourpill, whydoesn't attacksouthern region?”
“不超过1000,她说这笔账记在我们头上了。”梅恩放下信纸,“简直可笑,没有教会支持,她能成为碧水港女王?提费科.温布顿在哪里?收到了我们的药丸,为什么迟迟不进攻南境?”„Heis plunderingNorthern Landsat present, the reason of givingis the northern regionprotectiontriesto revolt, muststop the rebellionfirst, in order to avoid the rear guardis not steady. Hewantsto receivein the pouchseveralDukedomainsprobably, fights to the deathwithGarciaagain.”Tayfunanswersaid,„does not know after thisnew KingtakesNorthern Lands, candirectly soarWestern Regionto go.”
“他目前正在掠夺北地,给出的理由是北境守护试图叛变,必须先制止叛乱,以免后防不稳。大概他是想要把几位公爵的地盘都收入囊中,再跟嘉西亚决一死战吧。”泰弗伦回答道,“就是不知道这位新王拿下北地后,会不会直奔西境而去。”
