时间是1941年，珍珠港事件前一个月。 The time is 1941, a month before Pearl Harbor.
十一月某晚11点， At eleven o'clock, on a November night,
一艘英国潜艇，在北非利比亚的地中海岸浮起。 a British submarine surfaced in the Mediterranean
在德国占领区之外。 off the coast of Libya in North Africa,behind the German lines.
- 你确定灯光可以传那么远？ - Are you sure the light carries that far? - 应该可以。 - It should.
他们在那。 There they are.
- 说些什么？ - What's he saying? - 他说他们都准备好了，长官。 - He says they're all set, sir.
告诉他，们要登陆了 Tell him we're coming in.
这些是英国突击队 These were British commandos,
这个谨慎计划行动的目的是要致一个人于死地。 and the purpose of this carefully plotted raid was the death of one man.
掩护我。 Cover me.
- 没用的，你先走！ - It's no use. Go on. - 扶着我的胳膊！ - Get hold of my arm.
没用的，你听我说，快离开这儿。 It's no use, I tell you. Get out of here.
我们...我们干掉他没有？ Did we... Did we get him?
你这个过于认真的英国人。 Are you serious, Englishman?
各位以下是中东部队总司令。 The following order from General Auchinleck
奥金莱克将军的命令。 is to all commanders and chiefs of staff of the Middle East forces.
有一个很要命的事，我们的朋友隆美尔在我们的部队中， "There exists a real danger that our friend Rommel
被描述成为有法术的人或是妖怪， is becoming a kind of magician or bogeyman to our troops,
我们把他想得太有能力了。 who are talking far too much about him."
他绝不是超人， "He is by no means a superman,
虽然他的确非常活跃有能力。 although he is undoubtedly very energetic and able."
即使他是超人，我们的军队把他说成有能力， "Even if he were a superman, it would still be highly undesirable，
仍非我所愿见。 that our men should credit him with supernatural powers."
我希望你们用各种可能方法打破， "I wish you to dispel by all possible means
隆美尔不是个普通德国将军的偏见， the idea that Rommel represents something more than an ordinary German general."
请立即执行命令， "Ensure that this order is put into immediate effect,
请所有的指挥官， and impress upon all commanders
注意此事是异常重要，它关系着部队的士气， that, from a psychological point of view, it is a matter of the highest importance."
签名人：C.J.奥金莱克将军， Signed: CJ Auchinleck, General,
中东部队总司令 Commander-in-Chief, MEF.
这是北非沙漠，1942年6月 This is the North African desert in June of 1942,
这些是德军非洲军团 and these are British soldiers taken prisoner the night before
前一夜俘虏的英军。 by units of the German Afrika Korps.
快跑！笨蛋！快跑！ Run, you fool! Run!
你！快来！离开这儿！ You, come on! Get out of there!
和其他战俘一起！ Get over with the other prisoners.
谁是这里资历最深的军官？ Who is the senior officer here?
- 大概是我吧！ - I am, I suppose. - 跟我来。 - Come with me.
- 军衔？ - Rank? - 中校。 - Lieutenant colonel.
好！中校！我要你和这两个军官，打着休战旗 ， I want you to go with these two officers, under a flag of truce,
过去告诉他们别再轰炸了，告诉他们是在杀自已人。 and tell that battery to stop firing. Tell them they're killing their own men.
- 对不起，我做不到。 - Sorry, I can't do that. - 我命令你去做。 - I'm giving you an order.
拿着，把这个绑在那来步枪上。 Here, tie this on that rifle.
听着少校，我是战俘。你不能给我做任何这样的命令。 Listen, Major, I'm a prisoner of war. You can't give me any such order.
- 你我都很清楚。 - You know that as well as I do. - 我不会和你辩论这个。 - I won't argue the point with you.
你要么照我说的做，不然的话，看我们如何使你就范。 Either you do as I tell you or we'll soon find a way to make you.
- 你去还是不去？ - Are you going or not? - 少校！少校！ - Major! Major!
为什么争吵？ What's the row?
- 陆军元帅说你是对的。 - The field marshal said you're right. - 陆军元帅？ - Field marshal?
这就是隆美尔！ So this, then, was Rommel.
艾文，约翰尼斯隆美尔，敌军的总司令， Erwin Johannes Eugen Rommel, commander in chief of the enemy army,
自第一次大战以来，最出名的德国军人。 and the most celebrated German soldier since World War I.
沙漠里已经有一个传说， Already a legend in the desert,
他是只老狐狸在北非扫尽他所有的敌人， he was a fox who had chased his hunters back and forth across North Africa
大概是因为敌人在追逐他， about as often as they had chased him,
他的奸诈，甚至觑着嘴笑， and his tricks and turns had made even the tommies chuckle,
在战争时期，这几乎是这个敌人的正常的反应。 which is scarcely the proper reflex to the enemy in time of war.
尽管如此，他还是，当然一直是我的敌人。 In spite of which, he was still, of course, my enemy.
不仅是我的国家的敌人，也是我所服役的军队的敌人， The enemy not only of my country and the army in which I served,
因为我知道它是我一生的敌人。 but of all life as I knew it.
不只是民主自由世界的人， Not only of democracy as free men had fashioned it,
而且是文明的敌人。 but of civilisation itself.
我的名字是戴斯蒙，杨。 My name is Desmond Young.
我被俘时是印度军队的中校。 At the time of my capture I was a lieutenant colonel in the Indian Army.
这是我第一次也是唯一一次看到这位残忍、严历的职业军人， This was my first and only sight of the cool, hard professional soldier
他对交战规则的执行异常严格，如此说来， whose scrupulous regard for the rules of warfare had been exercised, in this instance,
我可真是幸运的。 so fortunately for myself.
两年四个月以后， Two years and four months later,
整个美、盟队还在欧洲各处奋战， while the British and Americans were still fighting their way across Europe,
艾尔文.隆美尔死了。 Erwin Rommel was dead.
纳粹报导他死了,因在战场英勇负伤而死。 He was dead, the Nazis reported, of wounds gallantly received on the field of honour.
但这是纳粹的一个大谎言，自然，很多人都心存疑惑。 But the Nazis were great liars, of course, and many people wondered.
因为神秘的谣言已经传遍战线。 For already there were mysterious rumours floating across the battle lines.
因为战争结束了，我的军旅生涯也结束了， So when the war was over and my military life behind me,
我给自已订了一个任务。 I gave myself a mission.
我要查出他到底发生了什么事。 I set out to discover what actually had happened to him.
他死亡的真像，他死于哪个光荣战场上？ what was the truth about his death, and on what field of honour had he died?
在德国华森堡哈林根镇的一小屋， In a modest home in the tiny village of Herrlingen by Ulm, in Wattemberg, Germany,
我和隆美尔的寡妻和儿子长谈， I talked long and often with Rommel's son and widow,
我查阅了他信件、报告及其他文件。 and examined his letters, reports and other papers.
在德国我与和他共事的同僚、他的部下他的长官谈过， In Germany I talked to soldiers who had served with him, over him and under him,
在英国与和他对阵的人谈过， in England, with men who had fought against him,
从陆军元帅到沙漠之鼠。 from field marshals to desert rats.
我当然还去看了两国的官方备份资料。 And in both countries, of course, I went to the official records.
根据这些事实写出了以下关于艾尔文.隆美尔的真实故事。 Based on these facts, what now follows is the true story of Erwin Rommel.
这位忠诚的军人走向结束的开始， The beginning of the end for this single-minded soldier
在1942年10月23日, 晚上九点半， came at 9.30 on the evening of October 23, 1942,
当时，隆美尔，只离英军大炮六英里... when, at El Alamein, six miles of British guns...
开火！ Fire!
我发现战争初期隆美尔不在非洲。 I discovered that, actually, Rommel was not in Africa when the storm of battle broke.
因为风沙导致他的鼻子过敏， Suffering from a chronic diphtheria of the nose,
他在一个月前被解除指挥任务， he had been relieved of his command a month before
飞回德某个医院。 and flown back to a hospital in Germany.
但是他床头的电话铃响了， But, when the telephone rang at his bedside
柏林那个熟悉的声音再度召唤他， and a familiar voice from Berlin called on him once more,
他起床搭上飞机，几小时之内就飞回沙漠。 he rose and was in a plane on the way back to the desert within hours.
- 谢谢你。佛拉格莱！还这么花俏。 - Thank you. Still the dandy, I see. - 运气差些，长官。 - Just luck, sir.
欢迎回来，长官。 Welcome back, sir.
- 我们来看看地图吧！ - Shall we look at those maps? - 在这儿。 - Over here.
- 你怎么样？拜尔莱因？ - How are you, Bayerlein? - 很好。 你见到妻子了吗？ - Very well. Did you see Frau Rommel?
是的，她来了，呆了一个星期，她和曼弗雷德。 Yes, she came and stayed a week, she and Manfred.
- 今天情形如何？ - How does it look today? - 我们快挺不住他们的攻势了。 - They've simply got too much for us.
我不知道我们该怎么解决。我们得到的汽油不够用。 I've no idea how we'll get out of it. Not with the amount of petrol we've got.
- 我们有啊！ - We have petrol. - 汽油不足。 - Not enough.
- 它们不是途中吗？ - It's still on the way? - 不，一点希望都没有。 - No, nor any prospect of it.
- 谁告诉你的？ - Who told you that? - 我向罗马说了三次 - I've talked to Rome three times.
自从昨晚10点以后，根来就没有运汽油或任何物品来。 There's no petrol on the way nor any committed to us, as of ten o'clock last night.
休斯，奥帝加。 Schultz. Aldinger.
- 那些坦克呢，运来了吗？ - The tanks, did they come? - 还没有。 - None.
- 从我走以后？ - None since I left? - 8月以后就没有。 - No. None since August.
- 补充的枪炮呢？ - What about the guns? - 什么都没有。 - Nothing.
- 也没有汽油？ - And no petrol at all? - 一点也没有。 - Not a pint.
这是准确位置，不超过1小时。 This is correct within the hour.
给我搬把凳子，好吗？ Get me a stool, will you?
这里最糟糕，15师处于困境，他们到了.... Here's where it's worst. The 15th's in a bad way. They drove...
- 这是什么？ - What's this? - 特兰托（意大利北部城市）师。 - The Trento Division.
- 是，我知道，装甲部队有多远？ - Yes, I see. How far's this armour? - 没有进展。 - No further.
我的地图呢？ Where are my maps?
把21师由这移到北方。 Bring the 21st and Ariete north through here.
- 移动90师和特兰托师到这儿。 - Move the 90th and Trento forward here. - 那么他们会切断。 - So they'll hook up.
- 蒙哥马利再次首先派出他的步兵。 - Is Montgomery sending his infantry in first again? - 当然。 - Naturally.
然后是装甲部队？我们首先派出的坦克部队在他的步兵部队中捅个窟窿。 Then the armour? Let's send our tanks in first and blow a hole through that infantry.
如果顺利，我们将压住他的坦克部队，而我们的步兵就可以平推它。 If it works, we'll be on top of his tanks, with our infantry pouring in to polish it off.
- 非常好，长官。 - Very good, sir. - 如果不顺利，我们知道下回合计划会更完善。 - If it doesn't work we'll know better next time.
您现在要走吗？ You're not going up now, are you?
- 你难道不是在休息吗？ - Oughtn't you to turn in? - 我不是休息了三个星期了吗？ - After three weeks of being turned in?
- 我们出发，长官。 - We're away, sir. - 往北方开和21师一起走。 - Let's head north and go in with the 21st.
但在沙漠中，现在又有一只狐狸，也许这一只更滑头的。 But there was now another fox in the desert, an even craftier one, perhaps.
如果接下来几天的战场充满迷惑， And if the battle boiled into confusion during the next few days,
混乱的情况，显然是越来越有利于蒙哥马利 it was a confusion that was clearly more and more in Montgomery's favour.
- 你找到陆军元帅了没有？ - Have you found the field marshal yet? - 没有，长官。他又到前线去了。 - No, sir. He's out at the front again.
我不知道该说什么，但以一个幕僚的身份， I don't know how the men in the line feel, but I'd just as soon have
真希望总司令不要那么身先士卒。 a commander in chief with a touch of cowardice about him.
有时偶尔回到指挥总部，继续找他好吗？ Just enough to have him back at headquarters now and then. Keep after him.
开战第十天！ By the tenth day of the battle,
连隆美尔都对注定结果不再置疑。 not even Rommel could have any doubt as to its outcome.
这种事总有个极限吧！不能一直这样下去，战到最后一人. There's a limit to this sort of thing. You can't go on indefinitely until the last man's dead.
这看着很勇敢的，但也是很愚蠢的 . It's all very gallant, but it's also pretty idiotic.
冯.索玛想撤回塔巴. Von Thoma wants to pull back to Daba.
- 穆勒如何回复的？ - What about Müller? - 还没有回答，长官. - No answer as yet, sir.
- 你那里来的？小子. - Where are you from? Son. - 戈斯拉尔（德国小镇），长官 - Goslar, sir.
真的？我曾在驻扎于戈斯拉尔的一个山地营待过. Really? I was stationed in Goslar once with a mountain battalion.
- 我们都在那里待过，你知道吗？ - We skied there. Do you know that run? - 非常好，长官 - Very well, sir.
- 有小镇什么好消息吗？ - Are you any good? - 有，二年前... - Well, two years ago...
- 他明白我需要一个立即的回复？ - He understood I need an immediate answer? - 是，长官 - Yes, sir.
- 你继续联系穆勒？ - Are you keeping after Müller? - 是的，长官。 - Yes, sir.
- 你为何不试着与柏林联系？ - Did you try Berlin? - 如果他能，他会发电报。 - He'll call if he can.
- 然而，什么都没有。 - Nothing yet, though. - 不，但他知道这儿的情况。 - No, but he knows the situation.
- 如果有什么他能做的事，他会去做。 - If there's anything he can do, he will. - 关于柏林，我们只是小人物，你知道的。 - To Berlin, we're a sideshow and you know it.
说吧，什么情况？ Well, what?
- 穆勒处境很困难。 - Müler's in a bad way. - 有多困难？ - How bad?
非常惨。如果他不马上撤退，他就什么也撤出来了。 Very. If he doesn't pull back soon, he won't have anything to pull back.
- 为什么我们得不到从他那里的回复？ - Why can't we get an answer from him? - 他的指挥车毁了，他在一辆运兵车里。 - His command car's gone. He's in a carrier.
如果他带回来超过40辆坦克，我会大吃一惊。 If he's got more than 40 tanks left, I'd be surprised.
- 意大利人怎么样？ - How about the Italians? - 他们也尽了他们的所能。 - They've had as much as they can take.
罗马电报，长官。 Rome calling, sir.
- 什么？ - Well? - 从凯瑟林元帅，内容是遗憾。 - Field Marshal Kesselring regrets.
好吧，这正好消除我们的任何幻想。 Well, that eliminates any further speculation anyway.
现在这是一个简单的数学题了。 It's now a simple matter of mathematics.
我们损失大量的汽油，我们有两个选择，我们可以留在这儿，被消灭。 With the petrol we've got left, we have two choices. We can remain here, be destroyed.
或是我们今晚撤出，建立下一条战线。 Or we can pull out tonight and dig in for the next round.
- 你认为我们仍然可以吗？ - You think we still can? - 撤兵，为什么不行？ - Pull out? Why not?
- 蒙哥马利不缺石油。 - Montgomery's got no petrol shortage. - 蒙哥马利是一个深思熟虑的人。 - Montgomery's a very deliberate fellow.
他不会想到我如此撤兵，这是他首先要思考的。 He wouldn't leap after me the way I'd leap after him. He'd think about it first.
- 我看不出还有别的路！ - I don't see what else there is to be done. - 执行计划C。 - Let's have Plan C.
下令要所有指挥官遵行重要命令，如果我们机动... Notify all commanding officers to stand by for important orders. If we move...
柏林电报，长官。 Berlin calling, sir.
- 柏林谁打的？ - Who in Berlin? - 元首。 - The Führer.
签名人：阿道夫，希特勒 Signed: Adolf Hitler.
形势所需，阿拉曼的阵地坚持直到最后一人。 "The situation requires that the El Alamein position be held to the last man."
不准撤退，那怕是半公分。不成功便成仁。 "There is to be no retreat, not so much as one millimetre. It must be victory or death."
- 我不敢相信！ - I can't believe it. - 这是柏林直接发的？要他重复消息。 - Still got Berlin? Ask him to repeat that.
我知道，但这不是他本意，我告诉你，是那些该死的家伙做的。 I know. But it's not him, I tell you. It's those hoodlums again.
那些小偷软弱凶手。那些玩具兵！ Those thieves and crooks and murderers. Those toy soldiers.
那些带着那些书、牌子、地图、指示棒的笨蛋将军， Those dummy generals, with their books and charts and maps and pointers.
他怎么可以听信这些家伙的话？他怎么能忍受这样的肮脏的气味 ？ How can he listen to such nonentities? How can he stand the smell of such filth?
为什么不杀他们，用他的智慧？ Why doesn't he slaughter them and use his intelligence?
- 回复来了。 - I have your repeat. - 快念吧。 - Go ahead, read it.
形势所需，阿拉曼的阵地坚持直到最后一人。 "The situation requires that the El Alamein position be held to the last man."
不准撤退，那怕是半公分。不成功便成仁。 "There is to be no retreat, not so much as one millimetre."
不成功便成仁。签名人：阿道夫，希特勒。 "It must be victory or death." Signed: Adolf Hitler.
- 难以置信！ - Incredible! - 你不会为这愚笨的信就不撤兵吧。 - You won't pay attention to such nonsense?
这是三军总司令部发出的命令。 It's a military order from general headquarters.
来自三军总司令部的命令，清楚，明白，愚笨，罪恶！ A clear, straight, stupid, criminal military order from general headquarters.
我告诉你该怎么做！服从它的定得了双重精神错乱。 And what are you going to do? Double the insanity by obeying it?
我们有军队中最优秀的士兵。 We've got the best soldiers in the army.
他们也许现在被困试一下了，但他还在一直作战。 They may be just hanging on now, but they're still fighting.
如果现在撤军，他们明天还可以作战，但这个？这个纯粹的疯狂命令。 If we take them out now, they can fight again tomorrow. But this? This is sheer madness.
自从中古时期，也几个人会说“不成功便成仁”。 Nobody has said "Victory or death" since people fought with bows and arrows.
这个命令会牺牲整个部队！ This is an order to throw away an entire army.
我提醒你，长官，在战场这些士兵是你管不是他。 If I may remind you, sir, here in the field these men are yours, not his.
- 我真的不明白。 - I just can't understand it. - 他疯了。 - He's insane.
-他没有，他... He's not insane. He's...
但我可没疯。 But neither am I.
把穆勒撤出来，拜尔莱因，我等下再和他辩论。 Pull 'em out, Bayerlein. I'll argue with him about it later.
战事在突尼斯结束， The end came in Tunis,
轴心国武力被艾森豪领导的英联邦军队， when the Axis forces were caught between the British, the Free French
、自由法国军队和美军所击败，并无条件投降。 and the Americans under Eisenhower, and surrendered unconditionally.
但非洲军团指挥官没有被俘， But the Afrika Korps went into captivity without its leader.
因为战事结束前一个月， For, a month before the end,
隆美尔再次因为生病而被送回德国某个住院。 Rommel had again fallen ill and been invalided back to the hospital in Germany.
- 早上好，中士。 - Morning, Sergeant. - 早上好，隆美尔夫人，曼弗雷德。 - Morning, Frau Rommel. Manfred.
早安。 Morning.
- 史都林博士。 - Dr Strolin. - 卡尔，史都林，斯图加特市长。 - Karl Strolin, Lord Mayor of Stuttgart.
- 史都伦医生是元帅的好朋友。 - An old friend of the field marshal's. - 您会发现他今天早上好多了！ - You'll find him much better this morning.
他只需要多多休息。 All he needed was a little rest.
隆美尔夫人... Frau Rommel...
曼弗雷德 隆美尔... Manfred Rommel...
和史都林博士。 and Dr Karl Strolin.
来自斯图加特？ From Stuttgart?
不光来自，还是市长。 Not only from, but lord mayor of.
别告诉我他在黑名单上。 And don't tell me he's on the list.
史都林博士，斯图加特市长 。 Dr Karl Strolin, Lord Mayor of Stuttgart.
她说他是陆军元帅的老朋友。 She says he's an old friend of the field marshal.
的确是！这里写他呢。 Nevertheless, here he is.
在斯图加特以外出现若发现此人仔细监视。 "To be kept under the closest observation whenever discovered outside Stuttgart."
不知该如何描述那场争执。 Not that it could really be described as an argument.
重要的是和他争吵不像，你和我平常争论方式。 It's impossible to have an argument with him in the sense that you and I could have one.
他尖叫，他怒吼。 He raves. He screams.
他变得神经兮兮，好像在和一个泼妇讲理一样。 He goes into such hysterics it's like trying to make sense with a panic-stricken woman.
他称我为懦夫。 He called him a coward.
他真那样叫你？ Did he really use that word to you?
不止一次，好几次 Not once, but several times.
他说要是在苏俄，像我这样的军官已经推到档弹墙前枪毙了。 In Russia, he said, officers like me have been put against the wall and shot.
现在一想这事还真可能发生在我身上。 Nor must I think it couldn't happen to me.
这就是他的谢意。这是他对欧文为他所做的一切的感激之情。 And that was his thanks. That was his gratitude for all that Erwin has done for him.
但你不能把这些什么人说的什么话当真成真事。 But you mustn't hold people accountable for everything they say when emotionally upset.
战况不太好，他当然很担心 The war's not going well and he's naturally worried.
但我恐怕要很久以后才会忘了他对非洲军团做出那种事。 But I'm afraid it'll be a long time before I forget what he did to the Afrika Korps.
他做了什么？ What was that?
我回来这里后，要求我请求他让他们撤出来。 When the end was near, and I asked him to get them out,
他说，他对于非洲军团，不再关心了。 he said he had no further interest or concern in the Afrika Korps.
他这样感谢他们！ And that was their thanks.
隆美尔，我要问你一个问题！ Rommel, I should like to ask you a question.
如果你不想回答，我能了解。 If you don't care to answer, I understand,
但，既然你的默许，我就大着胆子问了。 but, with your permission, I should like to ask it nevertheless.
是什么？ What is it?
你真的相信我们会赢吗？ Do you really believe that we can win?
- 我会告诉你，他相信。 - I'll tell you what he believes. - 是吗？ - Yes?
他可不这么认为 He doesn't think so.
他亲自告诉你的？ He told you that himself?
是的。 He did.
他明白在此时这代表什么？ And he understands what that'll mean this time?
很明显。 Apparently.
那我们为何要继续？ Then why do we go on?
因为我们别无他路。 Because we have no choice.
他要选择和平，我们也就不会与英国、美国、苏俄打战。 Because no country we're fighting - England, America, Russia - will make peace with him.
他承诺了？ He admitted that?
当然，这是真的。 And it's the truth, of course.
换句话说，只要他当德国元首。 In other words, while he remains as leader of Germany
我们就必须战至毁灭！ we must fight on until we're destroyed.
不成功便成仁 Victory or death, as ever.
他没有提出清楚的解决办法。 I take it that he didn't mention the obvious solution to the situation.
- 你认为呢？ - What do you mean? - 退位 - Abdication.
现在，我亲自的史都林... Now, my dear Strolin...
我恐怕我们必须走了，亲爱的。 I'm afraid we must go, dear.
- 就现在？ - Already? - 我要赶火车。 - I have a train to catch.
- 我们会再来。 - We'll come back later. - 一起喝咖啡。 - Let's have coffee.
再见，这么多年之后看见您真好。 Goodbye. Good to see you after all these years.
- 我们下次见面不会那么久。 - We won't let it be so long next time. - 你认为他们真会做吗？爸爸。 - Do you think they really would?
- 做什么，儿子？ - Would what, son? - 枪毙你。 - Shoot you.
不，不会的。当然不会的，那是他胡说，你不必很上心。 No, no. That's just his wild way of talking. You mustn't pay any attention to that.
- 枪毙一个伟大的将军？ - Shoot his greatest general? - 你不该在他面前说那种事！ - You shouldn't have said that in front of him.
走吧！别再胡说八道了！ Come along and stop talking nonsense.
- 今晚再见，亲爱的。 - Until this evening, dear. - 你能早点来吗？ - Come early, will you?
- 他长得真好看对吧？ - He's a good-looking boy, isn't he? - 又是一个帅小伙。 - And a very nice boy, too.
- 但你何时告诉他实话？ - But were you entirely truthful with him? - 关于什么？ - About what?
你告诉他，你永远不会被推到档弹墙前面。 When you told him that he would never put you up against a wall.
当然。 Of course.
你有没想过他可能和你对立？ Has it ever occurred to you that he might turn on you?
- 他为什么要？ - Why should he? - 他和有些人对立了！ - He's turned on others.
他永远不会和我敌对！ He'll never turn on me.
他身边的人都不喜欢你，希姆莱 、鲍曼还有其跟屁虫的。 What about those round him that don't like you - Himmler, Bormann and that crowd?
- 他们不会影响他吗？ - Don't they ever influence him? - 事实上，非常可能。 - Very often, indeed.
你想有天他们会影响他除掉你吗？ You don't think they might influence him against you?
有可能，是的，但...我不认为这是很可能的事。 It's possible, yes, but... I don't see that it's very likely.
但如果很不幸地发生他们想要的事。 But in the remote possibility that they did,
你有没有想过露西和曼非怎么办？ have you ever considered what might become of Lucy and Manfred?
我没想过！但你究竟说在什么呢 ？ I've never thought about it. But what on earth are you getting at anyway?
我认为你该想想，就这样吧。 I think you should, that's all.
你一点都没变，博士，你老是过份的担心。 You haven't changed a bit, Doctor. You always were something of an odd fish.
但这一次没有必要担心，我们两人都没有危险。 But there's no need to worry this time. We're in no danger, none of us.
你如果接受你的老朋友的劝告，你最好不要对其他人说这种话。 And if you'd take some advice from a friend, you'd better not talk like that to everybody.
我不会！ I don't.
我只对我喜欢的好朋友说。 Only to those I know very well and am very fond of.
- 再见，隆美尔。 - Goodbye, Rommel. - 再见，史都林。有时间再来！ - Goodbye, Strolin. Come again if you can.
我尽量！ I'll try.
进攻希特勒的欧洲重地现在很清楚地只是早晚的问题。 An invasion of Hitler's European fortress was now clearly but a matter of time.
1943年11月，隆美尔视察大西洋防线， And in November of 1943，Rommel made a tour of inspection of the Atlantic defences,
准备以纳粹军力， preparatory to taking command of the Nazi forces
集中实力，抵抗进攻。 that were gathering to resist the assault.
一个月以后，隆美尔向陆军元帅冯.·伦德施泰特报到, A month later, Rommel reported to Field Marshal von Rundstedt,
他是西欧最高统帅, supreme commander in the west, at the latter's headquarters
总部设在巴黎外枫丹白露宫。 in the Pompadour's Palace at Fontainebleau outside Paris.
陆军元帅冯.·伦德施泰特及各位先生。 Field Marshal von Rundstedt, gentlemen.
- 鲁格。 - Ruge. - 陆军元帅。 - Field Marshal.
先生们。 Gentlemen.
- 很高兴见到你！隆美尔！ - Good to see you, Rommel. - 陆军元帅。 - Field Marshal.
好吧，现在你仔细地看过了！你对大西洋防线有什么看法？ Well, now that you've examined it closely, what do you think of our Atlantic Wall?
恐怕，我的报告还没有完成，但... I'm afraid I haven't quite completed my report yet, but...
我们等你完成再讨论好了！ Then we'll discuss it whenever you're ready.
我估计艾森豪不会有如此大的胆量，马上就会进攻我们。 I don't imagine the mighty Eisenhower will be on us for another day or so anyway.
- 我希望不会太伤你的身。 - Wasn't too much a tax on you, I hope. - 一点也不会，我完全康复了谢谢。 - Not in the least. I'm entirely recovered.
- 我很高兴。你们将一起工作？ - I'm delighted. You're well taken care of? - 是的，长官。 - Yes, sir.
鲍尔，你带领我们的朋友。 Bauer, would you divert our friends
暂退一会，让隆美尔和我私地下聊一会儿！ while Field Marshal Rommel and I have a few moments of privacy?
是的，长官。 Yes, sir.
保龄球，对不对！ Appalling, wasn't it?
我都敢相信那个可能成为“防线”。 I can't even see why it's called a wall.
这大片土地有港口城堡保护。 The big ports like Havre and Ostend and Cherbourg are protected,
但敌人又不是大张旗鼓而来。 but the enemy's not coming in on the Queen Mary
海滩上一点防御都没有。 Nothing's been done about the beaches.
有五十处海滩只要娃娃兵就能攻下。 I saw 50 places where an army of children could come ashore.
问题在人力。我们有增加防御计划，尽可能做了... The trouble is labour. We have the plans for fortifications the devil couldn't breach -
从丹麦到西班牙牢固的城堡。 solid steel and concrete from Denmark to Spain.
但恐怕，我们法国朋友可不像他们一样合作。 But I'm afraid our French friends aren't being as cooperative as they might be.
甚至要驱使他们工作，而且慢得像牛一样。 Even when driven to the job, they move like snails.
要在他们抢滩时就消灭他们才行，否则我们会有大麻烦。 Either we break it up while they're still wading ashore or we're in trouble.
- 你要是碰上怎么办？ - Is that how you'd meet it? - 胜败在海滩上。 - On the beaches.
用地雷、陷阱缠住他们。 Crowd the water with mines and traps and tricks
让他们忙着，淹死都来不及。 and hit 'em while they're trying to keep themselves from drowning.
这里！下面这里。 Here. Down here.
和这里。 And here.
我不同意你的看法。 I don't agree with you.
但不过意见不同也只是说说而已。 But the difference of opinion will probably remain academic.
其实我和你都决定不了在这一行动中的战术 。 As it happens, neither you nor I will determine the tactics in this operation.
反正没有合法权力。 Not above the regimental level anyway.
你是说柏林？ You mean Berlin?
虽然柏林授你全权指挥这次行动。 I mean the Bohemian corporal himself is assuming sole command of this operation.
你和我仅仅是作为他的占星工具。 You and I will function simply as instruments of his astrological inspirations.
免得你受到怀疑与被审查，这是官方建议。 And in case you're afflicted with scepticism, this is official.
- 但这是一个不可能的情况。 - But that's an impossible situation. - 那么你应该向他解释。 - Then you should explain that to him.
你自己没有抗议过吗？ You've made no protest yourself?
在你干涉了十几次左右之后， After you've interfered a dozen times or so with a man's enthusiastic determination
就跟一个人决心要要割断自己的喉咙一样，有这一时刻你往后站站， to cut his own throat, there comes a moment when you're inclined to stand back
要不身首异处之险。 and view it with a certain detachment.
不反对我对他的的看法吧？ No objection to my pointing this out to him?
相反地，我一直祝福你的乐观和勇气。 On the contrary. I bestow my blessings on your courage and optimism.
听说你说我是一个小丑，希特勒马戏团的小丑 I'm told you once referred to me as a clown, a clown of Hitler's circus.
哦，我有吗？ Oh, did I?
假如是这样呢，我想你应该知道我对你的评价已经很多次了。 If so, I think you should know I've been more explicit about you many times.
这没关系，陆军元帅。 That's quite all right, Field Marshal.
我发现这几乎是不可能的，在对于我的批评保持克制。 I find it almost impossible to keep my mind on anything harsh said about me.
你说过吗？ Did you say it?
无论是谁说的，你都给了他足够的理由后悔说这样愚蠢的话。 Whoever said it, you've given him ample reason to regret such a foolish remark.
- 谢谢您，陆军元帅。 - Thank you, Field Marshal. - 没什么。 - Not at all.
- 有什么事吗？ - Is there anything else? - 我想现在没有。 - I don't believe so, at the moment.
也许有一个建议... One suggestion, perhaps...
在我们相互信任之下。 in view of our cordiality.
我要你，别把我刚说的， If I were you, I wouldn't be altogether unguarded
这一番建议，当作耳边风。 about what I had to say about this new strategicarrangement.
你该知道从现在起，你长期处于长期监察之下。 You should know that from now on you'll be under more or less constant observation.
- 来自柏林？ - From Berlin? - 我信任我领导层的朋友。 - Friends of the management, I believe.
你知道为何我受到特别待遇？ Have you any information as to why I should be singled out?
哦，不光你一个，我们都在名单上。 Oh, but you're not. We all are.
也许，你在非洲还没有。 Apparently, you didn't have it in Africa,
但在这儿，欧洲大陆，这可是项荣誉，关乎排名先后。 but here on the Continent it's an honour that goes with staff rank.
- 你也？ - You, too? - 我亲爱的战友，我是总司令啊！ - My dear fellow, I'm the commander in chief.

他的老友卡尔 史都林博士又来拜访他。 his old friend Dr Karl Strolin sought him out again.
- 下午好，先生。 - Good afternoon, sir. - 下午好。 - Good afternoon.
史都林博士要见元帅及元帅夫人。 Dr Strolin to see the field marshal and Frau Rommel.
请进，先生。 Come in, sir.
艾森豪要到春天才会进攻，这是明显的。 Eisenhower won't try it until spring, of course.
- 我想在之前都不会回家了！ - I doubt if I'll get home again before then. - 我们都准备好了吗？ - Are we ready for it?
我希望，我们准备好。 We will be, I hope.
- 祝你健康，博士。 - To your very good health, Doctor. - 也祝您，我亲爱的隆美尔。 - To yours, my dear Rommel.
你怎么知道这房间没有窃听器？ How do you know this room isn't wired?
窃听？为什么要被窃听？ Wired? Why should it be wired?
希姆莱窃听一个房间需要有理由吗？ Does Himmler have to have a reason for wiring a room?
不，我不认为他会。 No, I don't suppose he does.
但，我想你不用担心这个。为什么？ But I don't think you have to worry about this one. Why?
因为我与你谈话不想被窃听。 Cos I want to talk to you without being overheard.
- 关于什么？ - About what? - 关于希特勒的情况。 - About the Hitler situation.
如果关于政治，史都林，我不想听它。 If this is politics, Strolin, I don't want to hear it.
你宁愿看德国灭亡？ You'd rather see Germany destroyed?
不是一件事，我告诉你，我不想谈这个！ It's not a matter I want to discuss, I tell you.
我很吃惊你。你个像共产党。 And I'm surprised at you. That's a communist position.
哦，像吗？ Oh? Is it?
失败，反对他，那些事你知道的。 Defeat, against him, all that sort of thing. You know it is.
你会说贝克将军是共产党。 Would you call General Beck a communist?
- 当然不会。 - Of course not. - 或者格德勒？莱比锡市长？ - Or Carl Goerdeler, Lord Mayor of Leipzig?
- 我从来没有听说过他。 - I've never heard that he was. - 那法肯豪森呢？ - What about Falkenhausen?
- 不，但.... - No, but... - 关于海因里希 冯 施蒂尔普纳格尔呢？ - What about Heinrich von Stulpnagel?
冯 纽赖特、冯 哈塞尔，他们都是共产主义者？ Von Neurath, von Hassel, are they communists?
你是在认真地告诉我，像这样的人在质疑他的领导能力吗 ？ Are you trying to tell me seriously that men like that are questioning his leadership?
不只是质疑它。他们打算结束它 Not just questioning it. They intend to end it.
- 你是说你亲自和这些人谈？ - You mean you've talked to those fellows? - 他们还有很多其他人。不光是军人。 - To them and many others. Not only soldiers.
牧师、工会领袖、律师、医生。 Churchmen, labour leaders, lawyers, doctors.
甚至还有许多政府官员。不是很多但都是有力量的人。 Members of the government, even. Not too many of them, but sound men every one.
这进行多久了？ How long has this been going on?
从1938年开始。 Since '38.
你到底想要干吗？ And what exactly are you after?
第一：我们把希特勒和他的人赶下台。 One: We want to get rid of Hitler and his gang.
即使我们战败也要败得像个人，而不是野蛮人。 If we are to be defeated, then we prefer to be defeated as human beings, not as barbarians.
第二：不管是胜或是输， Two: Whether we win or lose,
我们要再做正正当当的人，没有恐惧！ we want to live again like decent people, without fear.
你看，史都林，我不想牵连上这件事！ Look, Strolin, I don't want to get mixed up in this thing.
他们在柏林做什么是他们的事，跟我无关，我是个军人不是政客。 What they do in Berlin is their business, not mine. I'm a soldier, not a politician.
- 你还认为你很安全？ - You still think you're perfectly safe? - 谁知道谁安全谁不安全？ - Who knows who's safe and who's not?
- 在一个理智的人，你会知道。 - Under a sane man you'd know. - 胡说！你清楚得很。 - That's a lot of rubbish. And you know it.
好吧，我希望你是对的，可能你是对的。 Well, I hope you're right. And perhaps you are.
毕竟你是他的爱将， After all, you are his favourite, and no one's ever questioned
他对忠于他的人总是宽宏大量。 the deep and enduring gratitude he's always shown to those who have served him well.
忠于职守就不会有危险！ No one's in danger who does his job properly.
你当然没什么好怕的！如果真有什么意外！ Of course, you have nothing to fear. And if something did happen, unpredictably,
你认为你的露西和曼弗尔德可以。 you'd still know that the lives of Lucy and Manfred
在他身边的所谓的爱国者的呵护下， would be safe and snug in the soft, gentle, tender hands
安全的且舒适的生活着。 of that brave little band of patriots he's gathered round him.
- 这些谈话令我很不悦。 - That kind of talk doesn't amuse me. - 我也不是尝试取悦于你。 - I'm not trying to amuse you.
我只是提醒你，你有多幸运。 I'm merely reflecting on your extraordinary good fortune.
希望你也有时想想这个，不要成为他嘴上的血， I wish you'd think about that, too, sometime. Not the blood on his mouth,
或许他对你个人有多好， but what a godsend he is to you personally,
不仅是你的家人，也包括在战场的士兵。 not only in your home, but in the field as a soldier.
有多少将军能在战斗中， How many other generals can boast the favour and support of a leader
有如此高的战争天分？ so gifted in the arts of war?
够了史都林！ That's enough.
你当然还记得，他拒绝在敦克尔克大撤退后， You haven't forgotten how brilliantly he refused to be seduced into an invasion
进攻未设防的英国？ of undefended England right after Dunkirk?
或者他在斯大林格勒多么勇敢， Or how brave he was at Stalingrad,
冯 保卢斯想跳出包围圈时？ when von Paulus wanted to withdraw from the trap?
有多少人有胆量反抗那简洁军令？ What other man on earth would have had the courage to send that brief, thrilling command
“不准撤退，那怕是半公分，不成功便成仁。”就连拿破仓他自己... "Don't retreat so much as a millimetre. Victory or death." Would Napoleon himself...
- 我说够了！ - That's enough, I tell you! - 连想都不敢想。 - Afraid even to think about it.
别再当老师，教我怎么做了！ Stop talking to me as if I were a child and you a schoolmaster!
难道你不认为我知道你的意思吗？但它是什么 Don't you think I know what you mean? But what of it?
谁问过我？即使我告诉他们我的想法 ... Who asked me? And suppose I told them what I thought -
这一切既愚笨又野蛮，谁会听我的？ that what they're doing, beyond anything else, is stupid who would listen to me?
- 你试过吗？ - Have you ever tried? - 是的，然后叫我管好自已的事 - Yes! Been told to mind my own business.
谁对他们说这不对了？你以为军人在为国作战前， And who's to say they're not right? You aren't naive enough to think
要先完全同意政府的每一措施。 that a soldier must approve of his government before he can fight for it.
像这样的军队，每个人都可以自由地决定他将做什么或不会做什么？ What army could exist like that, with every man free to decide what he will or won't do?
真正的军人一生只有一个功能， The truth is that a soldier has but one function in life,
唯一的生存理由，执行长官命令， one lone excuse for existence, and that is to carry out the order of his superiors.
其他的，全是政治，包括政府。 The rest, including government, is politics.
我必须再提醒你一次，我是军人，不是政客。政府要作什么... And if I must remind you again, I'm a soldier, not a politician. What the government does...
别藏在你那该死的军装后面 ！ Stop hiding behind that bloody uniform of yours!
我管你什么军人职责 What do I care about your philosophy of the soldier?
我只看到你害怕了！ All it means to me is that you're terrified,
隐藏你机器人的所有混蛋的功能， and hiding under a lot of rubbish about the functions of a robot.
你忘了我忍认识你20年了， Have you forgotten that I've known you for 20 years?
你对柏林那些人的感觉我清楚。 I know exactly how you feel about that abomination in Berlin.
我不明白你为何这么没用， What I can't understand is this willingness
和那些卖国贼混在一起？ to go marching right down into hell with a beast you loathe and despise.
你在战场上的理性和勇气跑哪去了？你这里什么都没有吗？ Where's all the sense and courage you have in the field? Haven't you any of it here?
我认为你现在该离开这里了。 I think you'd better get out of this house. Now.
直到你向他展示了一位老朋友的诚实与正直。 Not until you've shown an old friend the decency of honesty with him.
如果不顺利，那么，我准备再说下去！ If reason won't work - very well, then, I'm prepared to go further.
如果不把真相说清楚，我就不离开。 I won't stir from this room until the truth has passed between us.
或者你宁愿我叫警卫抓你？ Or had you rather I call the guard and charge you?
- 你永远不会如此做的！ - That you will never do. - 请问你怎么这么清楚我会不会做 - And may I ask why you know what I will do?
因为露西告诉我，你不会的 Because Lucy told me that you wouldn't.
你...你已经和露西谈过这些了？ You... You've already talked to Lucy about this?
当然。 Of course.
- 她叫你来的？ - And she sent you to me? - 不全然。 - Not at all.
她仅仅是告诉，我你对伟大领袖看法。 She merely told me how you really feel about our sainted leader
和他对德国的光荣计划。 and his glorious reign over Germany.
父亲！父亲，有车来了。 Father! Father, the car's here.
我们看到了，别大吼大叫的。我说过十几次了！ We saw it. Will you please not shout? I've told you that a dozen times.
- 他只是太兴奋了。 - He's just excited. - 我知道，但... - I know, but...
他是对的，他虽然穿军服了但还是个孩子。 He's all right. He's still only a boy, remember, in spite of that uniform.
当然 Of course.
照顾好你自己，亲爱的。 Take care of yourself, dear.
- 你没有生我的气吧？ - You're not cross with me, are you? - 生什么气？ - For what?
和史都林博士谈话。 For speaking to Dr Strolin.
不，当然没有。 No, of course not.
他说得不对吗？ Is he right?
我不知道。 I don't know.
我不能决定！ I can't make up my mind.
那是个可怕的建议！ But that's a dreadful thing he proposes.
一件非常可怕的事！我不知道能不能和他忍那么久 A great, tremendous, dreadful thing. I don't know that I can go along that far with him.
- 那就不要，如果你认为他错了！ - Then don't, if you don't think he's right. - 我也说他是错了，但... - I didn't say he wasn't right, but...
即使如此，这是唯一的方法吗？ Even so, is that the only way to handle it?
叛国？ Treason?
不管你自认有多正确，结局必然如此。 That's what it comes down to, no matter how right you think you are.
你认为还是让他们这样下去比较好？ You think it's better to keep things as they are?
不，不，我不能。但应该有更好的解决方式。 No, no, I don't. But there must be some better way of handling it.
我的意思是，如果我能再单独觐见他，并向他解释情况。 I mean, if I could see him alone again and explain the situation to him.
你叫我如何在这种情形下我如何作战？ Can you tell me how a man can fight a war under such conditions?
我们面临入侵，但我们准备的还不够... Isn't it enough that we face an invasion...
不，现在不介意。 No. Never mind now.
时候到了，你自然会决定！ You don't have to decide this minute. It'll come to you when it's time.
你真正的想法是什么？ What do you think, really?
我不能告诉，你亲爱的，我不知道。 I can't tell you, dear. I don't know.
现在不用担心！时间到了你自然就知道。 But never mind now. When the time comes, something'll tell you.
你最好快点出发吧，你已经迟到了。 You'd better go along now. You're late already.
- 每天写信给我，好吗？ - Write to me every day, will you? - 我会的。 - I will.
- 这是在路上用的。 - This is a little something for the journey. - 谢谢你，亲爱的。 - Thank you, darling.
再见，亲爱的，别担心我。 Goodbye, sweetheart. And don't worry about me.
我尽量不去想。 I'll try not to.
请别拍了。 That's all, please.
再见儿子！照顾好你的母亲。 Goodbye, son. Take care of your mother.
作个好军人，我以你为荣。 Be a good soldier. Make me proud of you.
我会尽力！父亲。你会把艾森豪捉回来？ I'll try, Father. Are you going to bring us back Montgomery?
他一上岸就逮住。 The minute he steps ashore.
再见，亲爱的。 Goodbye, darling.
最后，终于，在四年长期准备之后 And then, finally, after four long years of preparation,
D日来临了！ it came: D-day.
动员史上最多军力的行动！ And the greatest armada and the vastest movement of men and arms
由英国起航。 in the history of the world rose from England
航向诺曼第海滩，开始攻击， and set out for the assault on the beaches of Normandy
德国的欧洲重地。 and the German fortress of Europe.
波希米亚下士开始直接掌管我们的军队的那一刻起， From the moment the Bohemian corporal promoted himself to the supreme command,
德国军队就注定要为这次情形牺牲。 the German Army has been the victim of a unique situation.
敌军损失不大，而我军却损失许多。 Not only too many of the enemy, but one too many Germans.
你认为他已经准备好把第15军交给我们了吗？ You don't think he's ready to give us the 15th Army yet?
我不认为他在这种情况下会怎样。 I don't see how he can under the circumstances.
他的占星师告诉他，这只是一种假象， His astrologers have informed him that this is only a feint,
真正的攻击还没开始，在北方的加莱。 that the real invasion is yet to come, north of Calais.
第15军就在那里的坐在寒冷的海滩上 The 15th Army is sitting on those cold beaches up there.
等待已经被占星预测出来的入侵，这真是笨蛋指挥战争的好例子 Waiting for an invasion that has taken place is an excellent example of war by horoscope.
我们必须得到那些部队！ We've got to have those troops.
如果我们要扩大防线，就必须尽所能的支援这些阵地。 If we're not allowed to manoeuvre, we've got to be able to support these positions.
我们必须为这去见他。 We've got to see him again about it.
我很确定地告诉你，隆美尔。 I tell you this in confidence, Rommel.
我们一点办法都没有。 I don't think anything we can do would be of the slightest use.
已经注定战败了。 The pattern for defeat has already been set.
坚守，不准失去一公尺的土地！ "Hold fast. Don't give up a millimetre of ground."
不成功便成仁 "Victory or death."
战争不能由一个只会纸上作业的人来指挥。 Wars can't be won by men whose knowledge of tactics is based 。on copybook maxims.
他把我们当小孩！但他们也无法对抗敌军。 They may stir schoolchildren, but they don't stop troops.
如果让我放手做几个月，我会要敌军付出代价！ But give me a free hand for a few months and I'd make them pay for it.
我会让敌军血流成河，让他们到听德国就吓破胆。 I'd make them pay such a price in blood they'd wish they'd never heard of Germany.
我也许无法挡住他们全部 I might not be able to stop them all,
但至少让他们知道，他们是与一支军队作战，而不是打固定靶。 but they'd know they'd fought an army, not a series of stationary targets.
那个顽固的下士当然他决不会让我们这样。 He'll never let us, of course. You know how firm corporals are.
你知道卡尔 史都林？ Do you happen to know Karl Strolin?
- 史都林？ - Strolin? - 斯图加特的市长。 - The Lord Mayor of Stuttgart.
我好像在那听过。 I remember that name from somewhere.
或是莱比西的格德勒博士？ Or Dr Goerdeler of Leipzig?
你也认识？ You too?
过去的每一天每一分钟， Every day that passes, every minute of the day,
让我愈来愈相信只有一个解决的方法。 convinces me more and more that theirs is the only possible solution.
你必须知道，你说的这些使我困惑。 Your words, you must understand, mystify me.
他们准备逮捕了他，接管政府 They propose to arrest him, take over the government，
马上和艾森威豪进行和谈。 and move immediately to make peace with Eisenhower.
我不承认，我们谈过这个。 I shall, of course, deny that this conversation ever took place.
这实在是太幼稚了。艾森威豪不会单方面媾和。 But that's a particularly childish idea. Eisenhower won't make a separate peace.
他为什么要呢？战况对他们有利。 And why should he, with things going so well as they are?
你的计划从一开始就注定失败。 That part of your plan is doomed from the start.
你不同意基本的主张？ But you don't disagree with the basic proposal?
对不起， 我不相信我听到了这个问题 。 I'm sorry, but I don't believe I heard the question.
万一，如果他们向你提议你会接受吗？ In any case, if they came to you for counsel or advice, would you receive them?
哦，不会 Oh, no.
不会 No.
不，我想不会，隆美尔 No, I'm afraid not, Rommel.
太晚了！真的太晚了！ It's too late. Much too late.
你是说他们行动太晚了？ Even if they moved immediately?
你误解了！ You misunderstand.
不是那个太晚。 Not too late for that.
对我太晚了。 Too late for me.
我现在70岁， I'm 70 now,
老得不能反抗， too old to revolt,
老得不能向当权者挑战。 too old to challenge authority...however evil.
柏林电话，长官。凯特尔元帅的。 Berlin calling, sir. Marshal Keitel.
凯特尔？ Keitel?
- 冯 伦德斯特？ - Von Rundstedt? - 是 - Here.
- 瑟堡的事是真的？ - Is this true about Cherbourg? - 恐怕是的. - I'm afraid so.
这真要命。我要怎么告诉元首这件事？ But this is dreadful. How can I give such news to the Führer?
你之前已经报告过不少坏消息了。这该没什么困难吧！ You've reported misfortune to him before. Why should this be such a problem?
但真是麻烦，我们几个星期得到的只有坏消息。 But that's just it. We've had nothing but bad news for weeks.
有没有好消息让我同时报告？ Isn't there any good news I can give him at the same time?
你要不查查苏俄前线的战状？ Have you checked on the Russian front?
我们不是在讨论苏俄前线，我们是在讨论你们那边。 We're not discussing the Russian front. We're discussing yours.
每次报告情况都会更糟。 This situation in the west becomes worse with every report.
我带给他这种失望的情况，会令我不安。 I'm actually embarrassed to have to give him another disappointment like this.
你不觉得我们能做点什么吗？ Can't you think of anything we can do?
当然可以！把加莱吃闲饭的第15军下属的90个师划给我们 Certainly. Give us those 90 divisions of the 15th Army who are in Calais playing cards.
这是不可能的。元首解释过他们不能离开那里。 That's impossible. The Führer has explained the necessity for leaving them there.
很好！给我们下令准许我们从诺曼底撤退重新建立坚固的防线。 Very well. Give us permission to pull out of Normandy and set up a line we can defend.
你的命令是留在原地作战，这是他希望你做的。 Your orders are to fight where you are. That's what he expects you to do.
你没有更好的建议吗？ You have no better suggestion than that?
事实上，有一个更好的。 One very much better, in fact.
讲和吧！白痴！ Make peace, you idiot!
- 再见，隆美尔。 - Goodbye again, Rommel. - 他不会报告这个的。 - He'll never report that.
这一刻他一边幸福的流泪一边在敲下士的房门。 This very instant he's knocking at the corporal's door, whimpering with happiness.
永远不要忘记这个，我的朋友！ You must never forget this, my dear fellow.
胜利有成百个父亲，失败是成百个孤儿。 Victory has a hundred fathers: Defeat is an orphan.
24小时内你将就会接替我的位置，我向你致最深的同情。 Within 24 hours you'll be named my successor. I extend my deepest sympathy.
别胡说，他不会让你走的！ That's nonsense. He'll never let you go.
我还不至于老得不能祝福， But not too old, I might add,
祝你的朋友们，祝他们好运气！执行那愚蠢的计划成功！ to wish your friends the best of luck in their extremely interesting project.
同时，盟军攻下海滩阵地， Meanwhile, with their beachheads irretrievably secured,
盟军的坦克和人员穿越法国，朝莱茵河奔去！ Allied tanks and men had fanned out across France and begun their race for the Rhine.
你叫他们手脚快点！这还有一些文件。 Put these where you can get to them quickly. Also those files there.
你保管钥匙，其他的你自行判断。 Keep the key yourself and use your own judgement about the rest.
陆军元帅。 Field Marshal.
- 他在哪？ - Where is he? - 在小屋。 - In the small room.
- 奥尔丁杰 - Aldinger. - 是，长官 - Yes, sir.
上校 Colonel.
我会试着尽可能简短，陆军元帅。 I'll try to be as brief as possible, Field Marshal.
- 你最好在走廊上看盯着。 - You'd better keep an eye on the corridor. - 是，长官 - Yes, sir.
- 说的？ - Well? - 我们面临着一个马上要下的决定。 - We are faced with an immediate decision.
昨天在柏林我们有三人被捉了。当然他们会被逼供了。 Three of our men were arrested in Berlin yesterday. They'll be made to talk, of course.
但幸好，他们对参与的人了解不多。 But, fortunately, their knowledge of the people involved is limited.
但有一点每参与的人都肯定，时间不多了。 But in the opinion of everyone concerned, there's no more time to be lost.
我们必须以上行动 We must act at once.
全部准备好了，你肯定？ And it's all set, definitely?
据我所知，长官 So I understand, sir.
将军极度关心你现在是否能代表你提过的部属。 The general's anxious to know if you can speak for the commanders you mentioned.
我保证！他们将追随我的领导。 At my word, from this instant, they are prepared to follow my lead.
那我代表史都阿格尔将军建议， Then I have your permission to inform General Stulpnagel
我们立即行动不用再商议了。 we may now act at will and without further consultation?
在这等一下，上校。跟着我，鲁格。 Wait here, Colonel. Come with me, Ruge.
- 清理这间房间，奥尔丁杰。 - Clear this room, Aldinger. - 是，长官。 - Yes, sir.
出去！不用管那个，出去。 Outside. Never mind about that. Outside.
我是陆军元帅隆美尔，帮我接陆军元帅龙德。 Field Marshal Rommel speaking. Put me through to Field Marshal Keitel.
我一定要坚定！非常坚定。 I've got to be certain, absolutely certain.
即使最小的警觉都会坏事！ We can't go through with this if there's a remote sign of sense.
凯尔特？ Keitel?
- 隆美尔。 - Rommel. - 现在听仔细，凯特尔。 - Now listen very carefully, Keitel.
我要马上觐见元首，在法国某处。 I've got to see the Führer at once, somewhere in France.
我现在不能解释，但你必须让他明白这是非常紧急的。 I can't explain now, but you must make him understand that it's a matter of great urgency.
我建议明天早上。 I suggest tomorrow morning.
在6月17日， On June 17,
他们在希特勒的地下堡垒，沙森的马吉堡。 they met in Hitler's underground stronghold at Margival, near Soissons.
这是一项极其艰巨的使命，我的元首，但战况令我别无选则。 This is an extremely difficult duty, my Führer, but circumstances leave me with no choice.
我们在前线已经出现危机，我们必须下个决定 We've reached a crisis on this front that calls for a decision.
你说过了。你之前也说过了。 But you've said that. You've said that before.
每次我们都谈，我们面临别另一个危机。 Every time we talk, we're facing another crisis.
敌军在陆、海、空都拥有压倒性的优势， When the enemy has overwhelming superiority on land, at sea and in the air,
他们愈来愈强，我们愈来愈弱， and continues to grow stronger with every hour while we grow weaker at the same rate,
我从任何角度看这都是危机 that to me is a crisis by any standards that I understand.
- 必须立即以实际观点正视 - A crisis that should be examined promptly. - 你就是这样！你就是这样！一向都这样！ - That's you! That's you, like always.
事情顺利时你就持失败论。 When everything's going well, you're willing.
但，一有困难的迹象，你就变成了失败主义者，彻头彻尾的失败主义者 But at the first sign of a difficulty, you become a defeatist, complete defeatist.
你也许想知道为什你会失败？这就是原因。 Are you perhaps interested why you didn't succeed von Rundstedt? This is why!
我如果把你们全撤换掉也许会好一点。 Maybe I'd have been better if I had replaced you altogether.
有你，也许，对我没有一点信心曲？ Have you, perhaps, a little confidence in me?
比元首对我的信心多。我能继续吗？ More, it would seem, than the Führer has in me. May I continue?
没人告诉你伦敦正受到V型飞雷的轰炸吗？ And what my V bombs are doing to London, has no one told you?
是的，先生。但为什么不炸海滩？ Yes, sir. But why not to the beachheads?
因为那不是他们目标。它们准确度不够，必须找大城市当目标这样才会命中。 Because that's not their purpose. They need a whole city for a target, then they cannot miss.
那为什么不炸登船的港口？南安普顿？朴茨茅斯？普利茅斯？ Then why not the embarkation ports? Plymouth, Southampton, Portsmouth?
不！不！不！不！不！ No, no, no, no, no!
这就是我说的，你在战场上无法好好思考！ That's exactly what I mean when I say you're no good at thinking above the battlefield.
英国人不在乎那些小镇。他们只爱伦敦！ The British don't care for those villages. It's their London that they love.
他们不愿见到伦敦被我炸毁！ They don't want to see it destroyed the way I'll destroy it.
再有两个星期！记住我的话，他们会大叫投降。你会看到的。 In two more weeks, remember my words, they'll be screaming for surrender. You'll see.
继续吧，长官。到时这前线就不用再挣扎了。 To continue, sir. The struggle is over on this front.
在两周之内，你就准备看吧， Within two weeks, you must prepare to see the enemy,
敌人会突破我们的防线，深入到法国内陆。 break through our lines and push out into the interior of France.
就军事而言，结束已到眼前。我没有更多的力量了。 Militarily, the end is already in sight. We have nothing more to throw in.
你有什么建议？我们投降吗？ What is it you are proposing? That we surrender?
我给您的实际情况，长官。我只能请求你来做过适当决定。 I give you the facts, sir. I only ask that you draw the proper conclusions.
适当的人？对你 Proper to whom? To you!
我建议，隆美尔，你发挥战争的才能。 I suggest, Rommel, that you confine your genius to fighting.
把战争的行为留给那些对它负责的人！ Leave the conduct of the war to those who are responsible for it!
抱歉，元首。现在，如果元首尊重我的意见话。 My apologies, sir. Now, if the Führer will honour me with his advice.
V型武器，恰好就是一连串彻底使战争完全改观 The V weapon, for your information, happens to be only the first in a series of weapons
的武器中的第一种。 that will completely revolutionise all warfare.
我还有更强力武器，拥有上千倍的破坏力 I've a second more powerful, and a third in mind a thousand times more destructive.
但要讨论的是现在，元首。 But the crisis under discussion is now. Sir.
我还有十几种这样的武器，它们都能够改变整个战争的进程 I've a dozen others, all of them capable of turning the whole course of the war.
那现在我们该怎么办？先生。我们明天早上该怎么办！ But what about now, sir? What are we to do tomorrow morning?
一切都在你的决定中失去了，我们在创造...创造奇迹 While you've been deciding that all is lost, we've been working, working miracles,
这奇迹将是空前绝后的！ determining the course of history for centuries to come!
我们在车间和实验室制造毁天灭地的机器， In the workshops and laboratories, we've made machines of destruction
这是敌人做梦都想不到的！ such as the enemy has never dreamed of!
我在脑海里就有那种武器！ I have one in mind! I have a weapon in mind!
现在是必须暗杀元首的时刻， Now definitely committed to the plot to assassinate his Führer,
隆美尔仍在前线无力的战斗， Rommel was still trying to whip fight into his crumbling front,
在6月17日，在蒙哥马利村附近的乡村道路上... when, on June 17, on a road near a village with the ominous name of Montgomery...

我见过他。 I've met him.
假如我让他开车明天早上到方便吗？ Suppose I have him drive down tomorrow morning, would that be convenient?
- 很方便。 - Perfectly. - 他将带着足够的资料和指示。 - He'll have full information and instructions.
- 替我向隆美尔夫人致意。 - Give my best regards to Frau Rommel. - 我会的，非常感谢您。 - I will. And thank you very much.

- 我们直接从元首那来的，元帅。 - We come directly from the Führer. Field Marshal. - 好的。 - Yes.
我们要说的是他亲口说的。 And what we have to say to you comes directly from his lips.
什么？ Yes?
我们指示是先告诉您， Our instructions are to tell you, first,
他感谢您为国英勇作战。 of his deep appreciation of your many heroic services to the state.
还有呢。 Go on.
还有他对您遭到意外很遗憾 And his regrets over your unfortunate accident.
我确信他从那时保持沉默必另有要事 I was sure his silence meant only that there were more important matters on his mind.
这是一个遗憾，记录是这样的... It's a pity that after such a record...
如果你原谅我，我们可以跳过你开场白，你带来文件的给我吗？ If you'll forgive me, may we skip your reflections and get to the message you have?
当然，长官。 Of course, sir.
您会注意到，这些指控是证据确凿并经过强力部门查证的。 You'll observe that the charges are supported by an overwhelming body of testimony.
我会读，谢谢！ I can read, thank you.
我看到您已经非常幸运，能临终时的忏悔。 You've been uncommonly fortunate, I see, in deathbed confessions.
这是完全合法的，我向你保证，长官。 It's all perfectly legal, I assure you, sir.
你可以告诉元首，我期待着在法庭上回答这些指控。 You may inform the Führer that I look forward to answering these charges in court.
这些控诉你不会想否认吧？ You don't intend to deny them, do you?
我说了你可以告诉元首，我期待着在法庭上回答这些指控。 I said you may inform the Führer that I look forward to answering the charges in court.
元首非常希望这件事， The Führer is extremely hopeful that this matter can be settled
不要在法庭上公开曝光。 without exposing it to the inevitable publicity of a court trial.
好吧，那么。他可以撤销告诉。 Very well, then. Let him withdraw the charges.
他认为如果公开审判，大家都会受到伤害。 His view is that nothing but harm for everyone could come from a trial.
我接到的命令是提醒您，这些证词， My orders are to remind you, in the strongest terms possible,
对您的名声会有很大伤害。 of the damage that testimony like this could do to your name and reputation.
他希望我怎么做？认罪？向你？ What does he expect me to do? Plead guilty? To you?
当然不是那样。 Well, naturally not that, of course.
我知道他想要什么。他想要我闭上我的嘴。 I know what he wants. He wants me to keep my mouth shut.
他不想让我说到处说。 He doesn't want me to speak out where it can be heard.
好吧，你可以替我告诉他，他想得真周到！ Well, you may tell him for me that that's very thoughtful of him,
但我自已会在一个适当的法院用里自己辩护， but that I'm quite capable of taking care of my own name and reputation in my own way,
保护我自己的名声。 which will be in a proper court of law.
但，结束了，长官。判决已经生效。 But to what end, sir? The verdict is already indicated.
他要你告诉我这个？ He told you to tell me that, too?
证据就在那里？还能辩护吗？ The evidence is there. What defence is possible?
好，他的建议是什么？ Then... what does he suggest?
在我们走之前， Before we go any further,
提醒陆军元帅，这所房子已经被包围了。 the field marshal should be warned that this house is surrounded.
- 我有命令，长官。我确认你明白。 - My orders, sir. I'm sure you understand. - 我们都有武装。 - And both of us are armed.
他想干什么？ What does he want done?
他相信，如果您自已悄无声息地、毫不拖延地， His belief is that it would be to the best interests of all
解决您的困境，这将是所有的利益最大化。 if you should see fit to relieve the situation yourself, quietly and without delay.
继续。 Go on.
在他看来，不把这个案子送上法庭， The advantages of a solution like that over an exchange of recriminations in an open court
这样就不用双方撕破脸， are, in his opinion, several and obvious.
当然，他最重视的还是保住你的名声。 Most important to him, of course, would be the preservation of your name and fame.
还有，他对您所做的事就不会起任何疑心。 And he would see to it that no suspicion would be attached to the way of your going.
至于其他的国家只知道您死于战争上的受伤。 As far as the rest of the nation would know, you succumbed finally to your war wounds.
官方将会这样报道 That would be the official announcement.
然后，国家将尊重你的功勋和你的家人以及， And the state would then honour your memory and your family as well,
您将永垂青史 with a generosity that would be historic.
这是他用的词“永垂青史” That was his word - "historic".
您将万古流芳！ Your name would live on in the glory it once deserved,
您的夫人、儿子活着一天就将永远安全舒适。 while your wife and son would never want for either safety or comfort as long as they live.
- 我有选择吗？ - I have a choice? - 就某方面而言，是的。 - In a sense, yes.
要么现在死还是等下死。 The choice to die now or later.
我恐怕不得不如此。 It amounts to that, I'm afraid.
我有多少时间做这个选择？ How long have I to make this choice?
我们必须在今晚尽快回柏林！ We're due back in Berlin as early this evening as we can make it.
我要说，我得到在这种情形下的指示是： The penalty in this case, I'm told, would be the garrotte:
勒死。 Death by strangulation.
我带的毒药可以在三秒钟毫内无痛苦解决问题。 The drug I have brought with me is effective in three seconds and painless.
替我告诉他， Tell him for me
尽管有缺点，你已经充分地指出， that in spite of the disadvantages you've been kind enough to point out,
我将接受审判。 I'll take the trial.
正如你所说，这是一个徒劳的辩护，但我认为它应该大家知道。 It may be, as you say, a futile defence, but I think it should be heard nevertheless.
这对听到的人来说也许有点价值 。 There might be some value in it for those who hear it.
也许可以改变一些顽固的想法就像我终于改变一样， It might even move some to stop and think for a moment or two, as finally I did,
可惜太晚了！ though unfortunately too late.
反正这是我的命运，这是我的选择。 In any case, it's my life, and that's my choice.
我对您选择很失望，长官 I confess my disappointment with your choice, sir.
当然，发自内心，我很同情您 My heart, of course, bleeds for you.
不幸的是如果你坚持公开审判， The unfortunate part of it is that if you insist on a trial,
我无法保证，你的儿子和遗孀的将很安全。 I have no authority to offer any guarantees for the safety and comfort of your son and widow.
他们现在出来了。 They're coming out now.
- 谈完了？ - All over, sir? - 我想是的。 - I believe so.
- 我们到外面等，长官。 - We'll wait outside, sir. - 我不会太长时间。 - I won't be long.
好的，我们正希望... Well, we hardly expected such a...

他们给我带来了毒药，毫无痛苦，立即制命。 They're giving me a drug. It's painless and effective immediately.
我们现在就走，我会尽可能小声点。 We're leaving now and I'll do it as quickly as possible.
我们有枪长官，我们不能突围吗？ We've got guns. Can't we make a break for it?
不！没有办法了！他们考虑了所有的情况。 No. There's nothing that can be done. They've thought of everything.
那么，至少可以逮住他们。 Well, at least we could get them.
我告诉您，这是没有用的。我必须照他们说的做。 There's nothing to be done, I tell you. I've got to do exactly as they say.
是，长官 Yes, sir.
你现在要勇敢点吗？ Are you going to be brave now?
我不知道。 I don't know.

没有了，亲爱的。 No other, darling.
- 你还没告诉曼弗雷德呢？ - Have you told Manfred yet? - 我下楼时告诉他。 - I'll tell him when I go down.
不，让我告诉他吧。 No. Let me tell him.
我对他说比较好。 I can tell him so much better.
照你说的吧。 If you wish.
现在把外套给我！外面好冷！我不想发抖。 I'll get my coat now. It's cold and I don't want to shiver.
陆军元帅现在出来了。 The field marshal's coming out now.
- 您现在要走？ - You're going now? - 为什么不行？ - Why not?
你身体可以吗？ But are you well enough?
当然。我要说你和你母亲不用担心。 Of course. I've just been taking it easy on you and your mother.
是去俄国吗？ Is it Russia?
再见，奥尔丁格，我亲爱的老朋友。 Goodbye, Aldinger, old dear friend.
再见，长官。 Goodbye, sir.
照顾好他们。 Take care of them.
是，长官 Yes, sir.
你不能告诉我吗？ Can't you tell me?
不要问那么多的问题。你知道那样比多说话好。 Don't ask so many questions. You know better than to talk like that.
- 我们什么时候可以知道？ - But when will we know? - 不会太久的！ - Before very long.
- 再见，儿子。要乖一点。 - Goodbye, son. Be a good boy. - 再见，父亲。 - Goodbye, Father.

在最后的短途旅程上，隆美尔在想什么？ During that last short ride, what may Rommel's thoughts have been?
他知道反击的太晚而痛苦吗？ were they bitter - that he had learned too slowly and struck too late?
