The Last Frontier of Fire and Sword

On the fourth day of Arvid Widenberg’s dispatch order to Krakow, his deputy, General Anders Eriksson, rushed over. Anders Eriksson did not bring a soldier to Alvid Widenberg here, but he brought him hope that Alvid Widenberg would give up his request to attack the Great Bright Mountain Monastery. .

"General, please stop this ridiculous act in time. If you don't want to be a sinner of the kingdom." Anders Eriksson said astonishingly when he opened his mouth.

"General Anders Eriksson, are you threatening me?" Arvid Widenberg said dissatisfiedly.

Anders Eriksson probably felt that his tone was too intense. He breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a calm tone: "Of course not, sir. I'm just worried that you will return without success. After all, the defenses of the Great Guangming Mountain Monastery are solid."

Arvid Widenberg's complexion was slightly slower. He said nonchalantly: "You don't need to worry about that. Since we attacked Poland, how many huge cities and fortresses, known as indestructible, have been lost in the hands of our Swedish army. A small monastery, he is better than Krakow. Is the husband stronger?"

"It's not such an analogy, my sir. Although you are worthy of the reputation of the'sacred hand', it is a well-known fact that even the weakest fortress, as long as the defender's will is firm and he would rather die than surrender, then this battle It is bound to be protracted. If the offensive party does not want to pay a lot of blood, it must spend a lot of time waiting for the enemy's food to run out." Anders Eriksson analyzed. He tried to convince with reason and facts as much as possible.

"General Anders Eriksson, I think you are unreasonably worried. The monks of those monasteries will tremble with fright as long as a shell falls on the roof of their monastery. How can they stand guard?" Szczovic said disdainfully.

At this time, Frzezhovich had to wear a boat helmet to cover the back of his ugly head, coupled with his black gown, with a nondescript appearance.

Anders Eriksson glared at Frzejovic. He has a good temper with Alvid Wedenberg, but he doesn't have it with Wrzejovic.

"If those monks are really as vulnerable as you said, now I should stand in the chapel of the monastery and talk to you." Anders Eriksson sarcastically.

Frzezhovic's face was blue and white, but he dared not refute it. Because standing in front of him is a Swedish general.

"Anders Eriksson, why do you think they will resist to the end?" Alvid Wiedenberg asked.

"Because of faith, my sir. Do you remember? During the Thirty Years' War, even regular soldiers lost confidence in defense in some places, but the monks were still standing up to resist and be brave and tenacious for the people. How similar is this situation. What's more, the monastery in Daguangming Mountain is by no means as simple as an ordinary monastery. It is built on a rocky mountain, which means that we are good at digging tunnels, burying gunpowder and blasting. It is extremely difficult. And for such a rich monastery, its food and gunpowder will certainly not be lacking. And I am worried that if it lasts for a long time, the hearts of the people will change." Anders Eriksson said.

The last point is what he worries most. An army led by a group of Protestants attacked a Catholic church. What kind of uproar would it cause in this Catholic country!

Anders Eriksson went on to say: "As soon as the news of your attack on the monastery spreads, it will immediately give people a very bad impression. Our strength comes from the victorious army, and it also comes from those who submit to us. The nobles of China, the rich and powerful people who cooperated with us, and all the regular troops who defected to us. Your Excellency cannot deny that half of our success is due to them. But the sound of the gunshots of Czestochowa, I am afraid everything All previous efforts will be abandoned."

Arvid Widenberg admitted inwardly that Anders Eriksson’s first half made sense.

Although General Arvid Widenberg himself despised those who surrendered, this did not prevent him from acknowledging the role played by these people.

But he doesn't think what Anders Eriksson said in the second half. Arvid Wedenberg, as a famous Swedish player, is cold and proud in his heart. In his opinion, any resistance can only be suppressed with fire and sword. As long as you maintain a high-pressure posture on the ruled, and kill those who dare to resist, then the people here will obediently be obedient. This is why when a village misses a wagon of food ~ www.readwn.com ~ Arvid Widenberg will order his men to cut off one of their hands.

He wants everyone to learn to be in awe.

"Anders Eriksson. This situation you said will not happen, because I will take the monastery soon. And," Alvid Wiedenberg said as he pulled. Frzezhovic who passed by.

"Frzezhovic, do you say you will betray me?" Arvid Wiedenberg asked coldly.

"Yes, of course not. I will always be loyal to the great King Karl X and you, General." Frzezhovic said tremblingly.

In front of Alvid Wedenberg, there is of course only one answer to this question.

Arvid Widenberg let go of Wrzeszczovic with satisfaction. He said to Anders Eriksson: "Look, Eriksson. Wrzezdzovic is Polish. , I’m still a Catholic, but he worked loyally for me. Your worries are totally unreasonable."

Anders Erik trembled all over with relief. He didn't expect Arvid Widenberg to use Frzezhovic's "living" example to refute himself.

"Since you are so sure General, then I won't say anything. But I reserve my opinion and will report to His Majesty the King."

After speaking, Anders Eriksson did not wait for Alvid Widenberg to speak, salute Alvid Widenberg, and then retreated.

Anders Eriksson’s actions made Alvid Widenberg furious, and he wanted to use facts to admit his mistakes.

"Frzejovic!" Arvid Widenberg said loudly, "Let your army join in and attack the monastery with me."
