Everything was coordinated by the brigade commander.

一切都由长协调。

Sir Francis would have liked to read Phileas Fogg's eyes.

这时长很希望从福克先生的面部表情看出一些门道来。

Passepartout rode in the same carriage with his master, and a third passenger occupied a seat opposite to them.

路路通跟福克先生坐在一个车厢里。对面角落里坐着另外一位客人——长法兰西斯·柯罗马蒂先生。

The general at once stepped out, while Phileas Fogg calmly followed him, and they proceeded together to the conductor.

长立刻跳下车来。福克也不慌不忙跟着下车。他们一起去问列车长。

Mr. Fogg lightly pressed him by the hand.

福克先生轻轻拉拉长的手。

My own Sierra trip was ten years long.

我自己的 Sierra 之长达十年。

" We have nothing to do but to go away, " whispered Sir Francis.

" 我们只好走？" 长小声问道。

His aloof and brusque manner made him one of the least popular brigade commanders.

他冷漠而粗鲁的态度使他成为最不受欢迎的长之一。

But he was more disturbed at the prospect of her future fate.

柯罗马蒂长虽然认为这个印度女人恢复健康不成问题，但是对于她的未来归宿却感到很伤。

" It is only eight now, " said the brigadier, " and these guards may also go to sleep" .

" 咱们等着吧，" 长说，" 现在才点钟，这些卫兵很可能会睡觉的。"

" But, Mr. Fogg, " pursued Sir Francis, " you run the risk of having some difficulty about this worthy fellow's adventure at the pagoda" .

" 可是，福克先生，" 长又说，" 就象您的亲随闯下的这桩乱子，就差一点坏您的事。"

Provisions were purchased at Kholby, and, while Sir Francis and Mr. Fogg took the howdahs on either side, Passepartout got astride the saddle–cloth between them.

他们在克尔比买一些吃的。柯罗马蒂坐在大象一边的鞍椅上，福克坐在另一边。路路通高居在主人和长之间，两腿跨在鞍垫上。

Soon after, Phileas Fogg, Sir Francis Cromarty, and Passepartout, installed in a carriage with Aouda, who had the best seat, were whirling at full speed towards Benares.

过一会儿，福克先生、柯罗马蒂长和路路通已经坐在一节舒适的车厢里，艾娥达夫人占着一个最好的位子。火车飞快开往贝拿勒斯去。

In the way this strange gentleman was going on, he would leave the world without having done any good to himself or anybody else.

但长却认为这次打赌只不过是一种毫无意义的怪癖而已。凡有这种怪癖的人，一定是缺少一种指导一切有理智的人所必需的因素——益智。这位古怪的绅士，这样下去，一定会虚度年华一事无成。这对自己既没有好处，对别人也无裨益。

He bade adieu to Phileas Fogg, wishing him all success, and expressing the hope that he would come that way again in a less original but more profitable fashion.

于是长就向福克先生告别，并祝他这次行从此平安无事，更加顺利。

" A suttee, " returned the general, " is a human sacrifice, but a voluntary one. The woman you have just seen will be burned to–morrow at the dawn of day" .

" 福克先生，" 长回答说，" 殉葬就是用活人来作牺牲的祭品。可是这种活祭是殉葬者甘心情愿的。您刚看见的那个女人明天天一亮就要被烧死。"

While Sir Francis was speaking, the guide shook his head several times, and now said: " The sacrifice which will take place to–morrow at dawn is not a voluntary one" .

长讲这段话的时候，向导连连摇头，等他讲完，向导便说道：" 明日天一亮就要烧死的这个女人，她可不是心甘情愿的。"

He says while Gabby left office, most of the operation leaders are still in government , such as Vice President Konstantinos Mangum, who was a brigade commander in charge of raging opposition properties.

他说盖比（Gabby）离职时，该行动大部分主要负责人还在政府工作，比如负责指挥打击反对派的副长Konstantinos Mangum。

The parting of Aouda, who did not forget what she owed to Sir Francis, betrayed more warmth;and, as for Passepartout, he received a hearty shake of the hand from the gallant general.

艾娥达夫人热情为长祝福，她永远不会忘记法兰西斯·柯罗马蒂先生的大恩。至于路路通，因为和长热情的握手而感到很荣幸，他非常兴奋，他心里想，不知道何时何才能再为他效劳。大家就这样分手。

He saw his brigade commander, who was an inspiring figure for a lot of people in that unit, and controversial figure for a lot of others, get a career-ending letter of reprimand at the tail end of that investigation.

他目睹自己所在部队的长——这位对许多人来说是鼓舞人心的领导者，对另一些人则是颇具争议的人物——在调查接近尾声时收到一封终结其职业生涯的训斥信。
