The Last Frontier of Fire and Sword

Hearing Victor said that he was going to be executed by the Tatars, even if Cheer Chen and others knew that Victor was able to stand here now, then he must have been killed and turned from danger to safety, but everyone still gave him a squeeze. sweat. Cheerchen was even more ashamed, because those Tatars came to Poland precisely because of themselves. In a sense, he was also the one who destroyed Victor's life.

Victor didn't know that Cheor Chen had turned these thoughts. He continued to tell about his experience.

As Victor was to be executed in public, the Tatar leader also arrived. But when he saw the emblem of the mercenary group on Victor's coat, the Tatar officer immediately asked him to let Victor down. Because in Crimea, he had seen the same sign and fought side by side with the mercenary group that had this sign.

"Later I learned that the Tatar officer was called Nahai. And you went to Crimea." Victor said.

It turned out to be that sea! Today, there are so many things that surprised and sighed Cheer Chen and others. If the Tatars Chechen brought to Poland ruined Victor's life, then the appearance of the sea saved Victor's life.

It's really a drink and a peck, there is a fixed number.

After learning that Victor was indeed a member of Cheerchen's mercenary group, Nahai immediately released Victor's wife and daughter. Of course, Prussia couldn't go back, so Victor followed Nahai and others to Lviv.

In Lviv, Victor was received by King Jan Kazimierz. After learning that Victor was an excellent officer, King Jan Kazimierz strongly invited Victor to serve him.

And after so many things in the world, Victor understood that in troubled times, it is impossible to live a stable life. It is impossible to protect his family with a **** and a sickle. Only a musket and a saber can do it.

So Victor accepted the invitation of King Jan Kazimierz and became an officer of the Republic.

In 1657, the Grand Duke of Transylvania John II Rakoc formed an alliance with Sweden-Cossacks and sent 25,000 troops to invade Poland from the southwest. Victor joined the army of Marshal Lubaumacki and fought with the invaders with General Çarnetsky.

"Then Victor, why did you come to Crimea suddenly?"

After hearing Victor's account, Cheer Chen asked strangely.

"Head Chechen," Victor said with a serious and formal tone. Obviously, what he wanted to say was not his own meaning, but a retelling.

"His Majesty the King greatly appreciates your achievements in Crimea. Now, your mission in Crimea has been completed. His Majesty King Jan Kazimierz wants you to return home immediately."

"Return to China!" Pidro and others present were surprised in unison.

"Yes, go home." Victor repeated it again.

Then, she took out a letter from her pocket and handed it to Cheerchen.

"This is a letter from His Majesty the King," Victor said. "Your Majesty wants me to hand it to you. You will understand after reading it."

Cheerchen took the letter. He tore off the seal on it, then unfolded the letter and read it.

The first page of the letter was the lengthy title of King Jan Kazimierz, and Cheerchen jumped over it directly.

On the second page, King Jan Kazimierz first wrote about the republic and the Kingdom of Sweden, fighting against the Cossacks of Zaporozhye and their new ally, Grand Duke John II Lakoc of Transylvania. . Then, King Jan Kazimierz highly praised Chechen and his mercenary regiment for their achievements in Crimea. And it is said that thanks to Chechen’s support of Muhammad Glyi’s offensive on the southern frontier of Russia, the Republic of Poland was able to transfer the army confronting Tsarist Russia on the eastern front to the western front, thus gaining a series of superior forces. victory.

These words of King Jan Kazimierz are not false.

In fact, it was precisely because of this newly joined force that General Çarzicki succeeded in defeating Karl X’s attempt to advance to Lviv and destroying the last logistic base of the Republic of Poland. During the war, 2,000 Swedish troops were eliminated.

And because of the defeat of the battle and the continuous harassment of the Polish guerrillas, the Swedish army on the way to Chechen complained. At this time, God was also on the side of the Republic. In the past few days of heavy rains, a large number of non-combat attritions occurred in the Swedish army, and typhoid fever and colds were prevalent in the barracks. Due to the fact that there were too many wounded, a large number of combatants had to act as a stretcher team, which further dragged down the marching speed and the combat effectiveness of the Swedish army.

On March 15, 1657, when Chechen and the others were fighting in Cherkessk, the retreating King Karl X was finally surrounded by more than 10,000 Republican troops at the intersection of the San and Vistula rivers, and More and more Polish volunteers arrived. As a last resort~www.readwn.com~ Karl X left the wounded and retreated alone. 300 Swedish heavy-armored pistols dismounted and rowed across the river. They quickly annihilated a Polish dragoon on the opposite bank, opening the gap, and then more Swiss troops crossed the river.

Karl X successfully retreated, and the more than 1,200 lightly and seriously wounded people who could stay on the other side were all killed by the Polish army.

When Karl X finally withdrew to Warsaw on April 5th, the 8,000 Swedish army under his command had only more than 3,000 left.

On the third page of the letter, King Jan Kazimierz wrote that in the second half of 1657, the Polish army would launch a full-scale counterattack against the Swedish army and its allies. He hoped that Chechen and his mercenary regiment would be able to Participate in the final stage of this magnificent war, and honor the Republic as well as yourself.

On the fourth page of the letter, King Jan Kazimierz did not forget to mention his original promise to Cheor Chen. He said that he had submitted the Brest Fortress to the parliament as a reward for Chechen, and the parliament would soon agree to this proposal. When Chechen returns to Poland, he will be the lord of Brest.

The assurance of King Jan Kazimierz undoubtedly made Cheorchen very happy.

Cheerchen's joyous appearance was seen by everyone, and Pidro got close behind Cheerchen, squinting at the letter in Cheerchen's hand.

When he saw King Jan Kazimierz said that Chechen would return to Poland and that he would be the lord of Brest, Pidro's smiling face was all gathered together.

"What a loving and promised king!" Pidro exclaimed: "May he always be healthy and live forever."

Everyone heard that their head was about to become the high lord of the Christian country, and they all felt happy for Cheerchen in their hearts, and they congratulated Cheerchen one after another.
