参考译文
阿尔弗雷德大帝曾亲自充当间谍。

他扮作吟游歌手到丹麦军队的
营地里侦察。

当时，浪迹天涯的吟游歌手到处受欢迎，他们不是作战
人员，竖琴就是他们的通行证。

阿尔弗德年轻时学过很多民歌，并能
穿插演一些杂技和小魔术使自己的节目多样化。

阿尔弗雷德人数不多的军队开始在阿塞尔纳慢慢集结时，他亲自
潜入丹麦入侵司令官古瑟罗姆的营地。

丹麦军已在切本哈姆扎下营准
备过冬，阿尔弗雷便来到此地。

他马上发现丹麦军纪律松弛，他们以
征服者自居，安全措施马马虎虎。

他们靠掠夺附近的地区的财物过着
舒适的生活。

他们不但搜刮吃的喝的，而且抢掠妇女，安逸的生活已
使丹麦军队变得软弱无力。

阿尔弗雷德在敌营呆了一个星期后，回到了阿塞尔纳。

他集结在
那里的军队和丹麦大军相比是微不足道的，不过，阿尔弗雷德断定，
丹麦人已不再适合持久的战争，他们的军需供应处于无组织状态，仅
仅靠临时抢夺来维持。

所以，面对丹麦人的进攻，阿尔弗雷德没有贸然同敌人作战，而
是采用骚扰敌人的战术。

他的部队不停地移动，牵着敌人的鼻子，让
他们跟着跑。

他派出巡逻队阻止敌人抢劫，因而饥饿威胁着丹麦军队。

这时，阿尔弗雷德发起一连串小规模的进攻，结果不出一个月，丹麦
人就投降了。

这个幕历史能够说是王室谍报活动中最精彩的篇章。
