The Last Frontier of Fire and Sword

Chechen learned that Uncle Pidro was hiding from himself to assist Marshal Lubaumacki, which was almost two months after the Battle of Matvi.

The news was brought by Ingrid and Yelishei.

In fact, in the beginning, Yelischey and the others sent Ingrid to Sweden to inform Chechen that his uncle had acted without him, but they did not expect that the decisive battle between the king and the marshal ended so quickly, and Pedro sent him again. Yelishei went to Sweden to find Chechen, who came first, and then the two arrived in Stockholm at the same time.

When the two came to the palace, Cheor Chen was drinking afternoon tea with Queen Christina.

After returning to Sweden, Christina fulfilled her promise to Cheerchen. She gave Chechen the position of governor of Riga and applied to the Swedish Parliament for the title of Swedish nobility.

Since the team led by Uncle Pidro has not yet arrived, Cheerchen is not in a hurry to take office, so their family also lives in Stockholm. Every day, he would bring his children into the palace to talk to sister Christina, and the two children soon became friends with the young Karl XI.

When Cheerchen learned that Yelishei was coming, he thought it was Uncle Pidro's brigade that had arrived in Sweden, and he hurriedly asked Yelishei to come in from the attendant who had come to inform him.

Unlike Ingrid, who had a sad face, Yelishei was smiling and blushing along the way. Because he was convinced that the news he brought would make Cheor Chen happy.

Before coming closer, Cheerchen stood up to greet Yelishei, and the two embraced like brothers.

"I really miss you, Yelishei." Cheerchen said sincerely.

Although it was only a few months apart, it was as long as several years for Cheerchen.

"I miss you too, captain." Yelishei said with the same emotion. Then the two let go of their hands at the same time, and then each looked at each other.

On the sidelines, Ingrid also saluted Queen Christina.

After a while, Cheerchen asked, "My uncle, are they almost here too?"

Cheerchen and Christina thought they would hear Yelishei say "Deputy Captain Pidro will be here soon" or "They are still halfway", but what Yelishei said afterwards shocked the two.

His uncle, Pidro, the deputy commander of the mercenary regiment, led the mercenary regiment to join Marshal Lubaumacki, and defeated the royal army led by King Jan Kazimierz in Matvi!

In contrast, in order to reward the mercenary group’s merits, the Marshal Lvbao Macki, whom Yelissey said later, gave Brest as a reward to Chechen and asked Pidro to serve as the Republican Senate. Cheerchen didn't listen to these two good news.

After a long while, Cheer Chen recovered from the shock. With cold eyes, he asked Yelishei with a stern voice and said, "Yelsey, what is going on? Why do you want to get involved in the civil war between the king and the marshal? Didn’t my order call you to come to Sweden? ?"

Yelishei was a little at a loss by Cheerchen's questioning and staring, he didn't expect Cheerchen to react like this. This is completely different from what he expected before he came.

There is no joy, only anger.

At this time, Christina shook Cheor Jin's hand.

The queen's grip made Cheor Chen a little calmer. Cheerchen slowed down his voice and asked Yelishei again why things had developed to this point.

Christina also said to the side: "Yelsey, don't worry, don't panic. Just tell one by one what happened after Cheerchen left."

Yelisei nodded to Christina, and then he began to tell his own story.

When he was halfway through what he said, Cheerchen sat back on the chair slumpingly, and then hugged his head with his hands.

And Christina looked at Cheerjin with pity.

Both of them are thorough people, only relying on these messages, Cheerchen and Christina understand that everything is the ghost of Pidro.

There is no denying that Pidro did this for Cheorchen. But this is also the most painful place for Cheerchen.

The mercenary group joined the rebellion collectively and defeated the king. The relationship between him and Natalie was completely ruined by Pidro's move-even if Cheerchen had no knowledge of it and never participated in this conspiracy. middle.

Seeing Cheerchen's decadent appearance, Yelishei became even more nervous. He opened his mouth several times, but he didn't know what to say or what to say.

Christina looked at Yelishei and explained to him: "You are all fooled by Pidro. It seems that your deputy commander has clearly reached a tacit understanding with Lubao Macki. He deliberately let Chechen me. He Xianxian returned to Sweden because he was worried that Cheor Chen would ruin his plan. After he got the full power of the mercenary group, he would arouse your anger by buying, intimidating, and creating crises, and set the fire to Yang. The body of King Kazimierz."

"We guessed a little bit about this. But... But what I don't understand is the deputy commander. What is he doing? Cheerchen is his nephew!" Ingrid is still a little unbelievable.

"Of course it's for Cheerchen." Christina said, "Look, who is the biggest gainer now? Cheerchen and himself, one of them got Brest and the other got the position of the Senate, Ah The Leval family has completely become the giants of the Republic of Poland."

Ingrid understood, he stopped talking.

This is that Cheerchen, who had been holding his head with his hands just now, finally raised his head. He said to Ingrid and Yelishei: "Tell me about how King Jan Kazimierz was defeated."

"what?"

Yelishei was taken aback for a moment, then recovered and began to tell the story of his battle. He is a witness of the battle, so he speaks very truthfully and has a sense of picture.

In that battle, the royal army was personally commanded by King Jan Kazimierz, Stanislaw Potocki, Jan Sobieski, Andrzej Kmitzic, Mihavu Volo Dejavsky and others all participated in the war; and the commander of the aristocratic alliance was Marshal Lubao Macki. The king has 20,000 elite royal troops directly under his command. This is the army built by Jan Kazimierz over the past few years; the army of Marshal Lubaumacki is supported by his noble militia and mercenaries. After being joined by the mercenary group, the number is as high as 25,000.

It can be said that the two armies were evenly matched and evenly matched in the beginning.

In the first stage of the battle, the two armies were in a standoff across the Notaich River. Because the shallows of the Notać River greatly restricted the mobility of the cavalry, the forward led by Jan Sobieski did not act rashly. But at 13:00, at the urging of King Jan Kazimierz, Jan Sobieski finally led his army into the battle. He ordered hundreds of armored Cossacks to cross the river quietly and successfully attacked the Confederate army from the flank. However, the commander of the armored Cossack cavalry did not take the opportunity to expand the results. The main force converges.

And because of this small victory, King Jan Kazimierz gave the order to cross the river for the whole army without understanding the situation of the enemy, and the disaster happened. The Nuotaiqi River is turbulent, with a depth of half a meter to 1 meter even at the shallowest point. The forward crossed the river smoothly. When the main force of the follow-up crossed the river, it was bombarded by the artillery of Marshal Lubao Macki, and the ice on the river broke instantly. The marshal's cavalry troops also immediately volleyed, and the latter suddenly appeared in the complex terrain to launch an offensive. The forward troops of the Wang Army were hit hard and they were forced to retreat. As a result, the narrow terrain caused them to hit the dragoon who was crossing the river led by Mikhav Vorodjavsky, the latter on the way back. The musket he carried was unable to shoot because the former blocked the shooting boundary. The two troops trampled on each other in the chaos, fell into the water and countless people died.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Marshal Lvbao Macki gave the order of a general offensive, and an army of 25,000 people all overwhelmed the chaotic king army.

Jan Sobieski commanded the most elite winged cavalry to resist desperately, but the cold river restricted the mobility of the winged cavalry, which greatly reduced the power of the winged cavalry's charge.

After this, Jan Kazimierz tried to put the follow-up troops into battle from the flanks again, trying to stop the torrent of Lubao Macki’s pursuit, but these troops were defeated one by one by the mercenary regiment deployed on the flanks by Marshal Lubao Macki. , And finally returned without success.

At the last moment, King Jan Kazimierz had to flee the battlefield under the protection of Sobieski and the guards.

In the battle, the mercenary group used the pike-musket phalanx of the Swedish army to play a major role in the charge of the wing cavalry, but Yelisei knew that Chechen was dissatisfied with the mercenary group’s participation in the war. So he also skipped this feat of the mercenary group.

Also, he died on the battlefield of Matvi without Tivicd.

Cheechen listened to Yelishei's narration. When he heard that King Jan Kazimierz had fled the battlefield under the protection of Jan Sobieski and the guard, Cheerchen asked anxiously: "Where is Natalie? And Anzu and Mihavu What about them? Are they captured, killed in battle, or escaped?"

Yelishei told Chechen that Mrs. Natalie had withdrawn to Warsaw with the king, but Anjay and Mihav escaped, and the mercenary group let them go.

Fortunately, the two of them did not become prisoners, otherwise they would definitely become the ghosts of Lubao Macki.

Speaking of which, Yelishei has lingering fears when he thinks about it now. Because after the battle, Lvbao Macki executed more than 4,000 captured soldiers and nobles on the spot.

We must know that these executed soldiers and nobles were all loyal supporters of the king and the reformers. Their death was a major blow to the reformers. It can be said that Lubaumacki and the aristocratic alliance he represented were physically annihilated. The foundation for the revival of the reformists.

Hearing this, even Christina couldn't help but sighed secretly: Lvbao Macki is worthy of a generation of heroes. Such a thoughtful, civilized and armed character, if he can use this ability to deal with foreign enemies or build a country, it will be a blessing to Poland. But he has used it in internal struggles. This is truly the disaster of the Republic of Poland.

Hearing that Lvbao Macki had killed so many people at once, Cheechen's hands were tightly clasped together. Shame and anger filled his chest, his temples burst into blue veins, and his face looked like a cooked crab.

"Sin, sin!" he couldn't help yelling, stomping his feet while shouting.

Yelishei tried to admonish Cheerchen, but Cheerchen stopped him as soon as he took a step~www.readwn.com~ Yelishey. "Cheerchen shouted."

"Yes, captain."

"You ask Xie Miao to prepare immediately, and I want to go back to Warsaw."

Yelishei didn't react for a moment, and was stunned.

"Why are you standing here! Don't you listen to my orders?"

At this time, Chechen was already angry and did not hesitate to speak.

A warm hand clasped Cheechen's shoulder again.

It's Christina.

"Chechen, don't be impulsive." Christina said.

Even if Cheer Chen had a fire in his heart, he wouldn't have an attack on Christina. Seeing Christina's gentle eyes, Cheerjin gradually calmed down.

He said to Yelishei: "I'm sorry, Yelishei. I was too impulsive. You and Ingrid are struggling, let's go down and rest."

After receiving a gesture from Christina, Yelishei and Ingrid stepped back.

"Chechen, what are you doing back to Poland?"

Of course, Christina knew that Cheechen did not return to Poland for the position of Governor of Brest, who was rewarded by Na Lubao Macki. She was worried that Cheechen was impulsive and would do things that would be detrimental to her. Power is in the hands, and former lovers and friends like Natalie and Anjay Kmicicz must also regard him as enemies.

Cheerchen knew that Christina was worried that she would do something stupid. He comforted her sister Christina and said, "Don't worry, sister. I won't go to Lvbao Macki to argue. I just want to see him when I return to Warsaw. Uncle and Natalie. I want to ask Uncle, is it really important that a seat in a Senate is so important that he can deceive me regardless of family affection. And Natalie..."

Speaking of Natalie, Cheerjin looked at the sky to the south.

"What I should face, I have to face it."
