短释义：
Whenever a small group of people sets up a camp at a distance from the main, larger organization (whether it’s military or not), you can call their settlement an outpost. Explorers in the early days of the US set up outposts throughout the West, and many countries establish outposts near their borders with hostile neighbors — encampments for keeping an eye on them. The first written use of outpost is usually ascribed to George Washington.
前哨站是有点偏僻的营地或车站。军事前哨充当守卫或防御敌人对较大军事力量的攻击的角色。

每当一小群人在远离主要较大组织（无论是否是军事组织）的地方建立营地时，您就可以将他们的定居点称为前哨基地。美国早期的探险家在整个西方建立了前哨基地，许多国家在与敌对邻国的边境附近建立了前哨基地——监视他们的营地。前哨站的第一个书面使用通常归因于乔治·华盛顿。

词源：
outpost(n.)1757, “military position detached from the main body of troops or outside the limits of a camp,” from out- + post (n.2). Originally in George Washington’s letters. Phrase outpost of Empire (by 1895) “remotest territory of an empire” in later use often echoes Kipling:
There he shall blaze a nation’s ways with hatchet and with brand,
Till on his last-won wilderness an Empire’s outposts stand!
also from 1757
下面是词源的翻译（机器翻译比较难翻，参考着看）
outpost(n.)1757，“脱离主力部队或在营地范围之外的军事阵地”，来自 out- + post (n.2)。最初出现在乔治·华盛顿的信中。后来使用的短语“帝国前哨”（1895 年）“帝国最偏远的领土”经常与吉卜林相呼应：在那里，他将用斧头和烙印开辟一个国家的道路，直到在他最后赢得的荒野上建立一个帝国的前哨！也是从1757年开始
