Chapter 121

    Jan kazimi''s face was unhappy.


    Of course, he knew who the "Lion" in Lvov''s general army meant. Stefan charnietsky has repeatedly mentioned his worries about his northern neighbors on different occasions. Some of these words are said to themselves, while others are in conversation with colleagues. These untimely words disturbed the morale of the army to a certain extent.


    For the kingdom of Sweden and the current King Carl x, Jan kazimizh did not think they would take advantage of the fire. As we all know, the contract between the two countries will expire in three years. The notary of this contract is the Habsburg family. If the kingdom of Sweden tears up the contract, it is tantamount to beating the Habsburg family and the Holy Roman Empire in the face. Although it shocked the German region and seized a large area of territory to become one of the great powers in the thirty year war, the details can not be compared with the Habsburg family inheriting the Holy Roman Empire after all. Moreover, the Polish winged cavalry''s record of defeating the Royal Swedish army several times also deterred the nobles of the kingdom of Sweden to a certain extent.


    "My most loyal commander, thank you for reminding me to beware of the threat from the north. But I don''t think my cousin will stab us in the back. After all, we are bleeding the same blood," kazimic said to Stefan charnietsky.


    "With the same blood, that''s what I''m most worried about," Stefan charnietsky said in his heart.


    The full name of the current king of the Republic of Poland, Jan kazimiz, is Jan kazimiz Vasa, from the vasa family, which is also the ruler of the kingdom of Sweden. When Grandpa Jan kazimiz was alive, the king served as the king of two countries. However, when Jan kazimiz''s father zigmont III ruled Poland, his team lost the throne of the kingdom of Sweden, which also became the fuse of many wars between the Republic of Poland and the kingdom of Sweden.


    During the reign of Queen Christina, the daughter of King Gustav, the "Northern European lion", the two countries finally began to live in peace. But last year, despite the opposition of domestic nobles, Queen Christina passed her throne to Archduke Carl, now King Carl X.


    Since Carl X was not a member of the traditional vasa royal family in Sweden, his accession to the throne was controversial from the beginning. Some nobles in China actively planned to kill him and welcome the Polish royal family, which was also a direct member of the vasa family, to regain control of Sweden at that time.


    If this is only the wishful thinking of a small group of people in the kingdom of Sweden, it''s OK to say.


    The bad thing is that Jan kazimi''s attitude towards this matter is very ambiguous. Although he doesn''t know that he wants to be king of Sweden, he has flirted with the Swedish aristocracy against Carl x for a long time.


    His king is so elegant that he wants Carl x to abide by the contract and not fall into a well. It''s really more difficult than going to heaven.


    But his Majesty was so obsessed with the contract.


    Moreover, King Jan kazimiz can claim the right to inherit the throne of the kingdom of Sweden because he comes from the vasa family. Similarly, Carl x can challenge the throne of the Republic of Poland for the same reasons. When wadiswaf IV died and the Polish throne was vacant, Carl x, still Archduke Carl, competed with Jan kazimiz. Although he failed in the end, there were not a few Polish nobles who supported him at that time.


    King Jan kazimizh knew that the Lvov general had not let down his doubts when he saw that Stefan charnietsky bent slightly and did not speak. He frowned, but gave in to Stefan charnietsky. After all, Stefan charnietsky''s excellent military talent and loyalty to himself are among the best of all nobles.


    King Jan kazimiz said to Stefan charnietsky, "well, my most loyal general. How can you rest assured and focus on attacking Bratslav?"


    Seeing that the king was finally willing to listen to his own opinions, Stefan charnietsky quickly suggested: "Your Majesty, we can quietly build a defense line along the nottes river. Deploy troops behind the nottes River, and then take the Poznan area as the core area of the whole defense line. If the Swedish army really breaks the contract, we can keep them out of the defense line and delay time. Then, your Majesty, your main force will immediately get away from Ukraine and return to the division Keep Warsaw and Krakow. "


    In fact, Stefan Carnetskiy''s plan takes into account the most dangerous situation faced by Republic of Poland after the invasion of Poland by Sweden, trying to preserve the main force of the Republic and the most elite area of the Republic.


    After hearing the plan, Jan kazimiz asked Stefan charnietsky a question: "what if my cousin mistook us for the kingdom of Sweden?"


    Asking such a question shows that Jan kazimiz still doesn''t believe that the kingdom of Sweden will break the alliance.


    Of course, Stefan charnietsky could hear the obvious meaning. The loyal general Lvov could only immediately put forward a solution:


    "We can assemble our troops in the name of your Majesty the king and Prince yanush of Lithuania."


    Jan Kazimierz nodded. This is really a good excuse.


    "Just do as you say, my chief soldier. Your suggestions always give me no reason to refuse." Jan kazimi deliberately put on a helpless expression.


    Stefan charnietsky was again terrified of his Majesty''s behavior.


    Now that the most important thing was over, the king and his subjects exchanged greetings again, Stefan charnietsky left.


    When Stefan charnietsky left, King Jan kazimiz returned to his seat. He took a quill pen, dipped it in the ink bottle, and then began to write the letter.


    The content of the letter is, of course, the plan for building a front-line defense of the nottes River mentioned by Stefan charnietsky. The letter will soon be sent to Warsaw, and the remaining ministers will be arranged according to the contents of the letter.


    It was written that King Jan kazimiz remembered that if such a defense line was to be built, the military expenditure would be astronomical. The financially strapped King began to love money again, and his writing speed slowed down a bit.


    "If the Swedish army doesn''t attack us, won''t the money be wasted?" thought the king.


    But when he remembered that he had promised Stefan charnietsky, Jan kazimiz began to be melancholy again.


    "If only we could be sure whether Sweden would invade or not."


    As soon as this idea came out, it could not be stopped from usurping the king''s heart. In order to solve this problem, kazimizi racked his brains and really came up with a "way".


    Kazimierz added "handle slowly" at the end of the first letter, and then wrote a second letter.


    This letter is addressed to Carl X. In the letter, kazimieri mentioned the request to borrow food from the kingdom of Sweden. Kazimieri''s wishful thinking is as follows: if Sweden is willing to borrow food, it means that Sweden will abide by the contract with the Republic and maintain friendly relations with Poland; If you don''t borrow it, your cousin must have an idea that is unfavorable to himself and the Republic, so he is ordering the front line to build a defense line.


    Kazimiz was satisfied with his idea. After writing, he poured fine sand on the letter paper and sucked up the ink on it. Then the letter was put into an envelope, sealed with wax and sent out immediately.
