Three rows of stakes were pulled from the ground to make a hole in the line. Tyrion led his party through.
便有人將三排木樁從地上拔起，空出一條路來，讓提利昂帶著他的人馬穿過。
Lord Tywin's camp spread over leagues. Chella's estimate of twenty thousand men could not be far wrong. The common men camped out in the open, but the knights had thrown up tents, and some of the high lords had erected pavilions as large as houses. Tyrion spied the red ox of the Presters, Lord Crakehall's brindled boar, the burning tree of Marbrand, the badger of Lydden. Knights called out to him as he cantered past, and men-at-arms gaped at the clansmen in open astonishment.
泰溫公爵的軍營廣達(dá)數(shù)里，齊拉估計的兩萬人與事實相去不遠(yuǎn)。普通士兵露天扎營，騎士則搭建帳篷，而有些領(lǐng)主的營帳大得像房屋一樣。提利昂瞥見普萊斯特家族的紅牛紋飾、克雷赫伯爵的斑紋野豬、馬爾布蘭家族的燃燒之樹，以及萊頓家族的獾。他快步跑過，騎士們紛紛向他打招呼，而民兵見了那群原住民，吃驚得張大了嘴。
Shagga was gaping back; beyond a certainty, he had never seen so many men, horses, and weapons in all his days. The rest of the mountain brigands did a better job of guarding their faces, but Tyrion had no doubts that they were full as much in awe. Better and better. The more impressed they were with the power of the Lannisters, the easier they would be to command.
夏嘎的嘴張得也不小；顯然他這輩子都沒見過這么多人、馬和武器。其他幾名高山盜匪的驚訝之情掩飾得稍微好一點，但提利昂認(rèn)為他們的驚訝程度絕不在夏嘎之下。情況對他越來越有利了，他們越是對蘭尼斯特家的勢力感到折服，就越容易聽他擺布。
The inn and its stables were much as he remembered, though little more than tumbled stones and blackened foundations remained where the rest of the village had stood. A gibbet had been erected in the yard, and the body that swung there was covered with ravens. At Tyrion's approach they took to the air, squawking and flapping their black wings.
旅店和馬廄與記憶中相去不遠(yuǎn)，只是村里的其他屋舍如今只剩亂石殘垣和焦黑地基。旅店院子里搭起了一座絞刑臺，掛在上面的尸體前后搖擺，全身停滿了烏鴉。提利昂接近時，烏鴉紛紛“嘎嘎”怪叫，振翅騰空。
