Victor''s lateness should have caused Prince yanush''s anger, because his royal highness hates the soldiers who are not punctual. And Victor was ready to be punished by the prince. But Prince yanush did not punish Victor, not even a word. He pointed to a young man next to him and said to Victor:
"Lieutenant Victor, let me introduce you. This is Catherine, Prince boguslav''s personal guard. He will lead a team of Prince''s guards to protect the dinner with you tonight."
Catherine took off her hat and saluted victor. When he looked up, he smiled slightly at Chechen.
"Thank you for your kindness, your highness. But I believe that relying on my infantry is enough to deal with any situation." Victor declined Prince yanush. For Victor, who has great military pride, it is an insult for him to drink his subordinates for an ordinary dinner.
"Of course I believe in the abilities of you and your subordinates. But Victor, today''s dinner is extraordinary. Half of the Lords and senior officers of the Republic will be present, and there will be no room for any mistakes. Not only this Catherine, but also your Spanish fellow Chechen, who has saved my life and is a very capable rising star. He and his mercenary regiment will also join us "On guard tonight," said the prince calmly but without doubt.
Victor followed the prince for a long time. Of course, he knew the prince''s temper very well. When Prince yanush said so, he said nothing more.
"Three, you are the most trusted people of me and my brother. I might as well tell you frankly that tonight will be an important moment to determine the fate of me and the raziwiu family. You may have to deal with not only the enemies outside, but also those who may betray at today''s banquet. I hope you will trust and support me anyway."
"We will, your highness."
Seeing that Prince yanush said so solemnly and sincerely, the three answered loudly.
Prince kenush did not seem satisfied. He strode to his desk and took out the cross.
"In the name of the cross, I want you to say it again."
"We will be loyal to you, the great prince." the three repeated to the crucified Jesus.
"Never let out today''s words."
"Never let out today''s words."
This time, yanushi finally put down his heart.
"Well, you three go down and discuss the security work in the evening. I''m tired and need a rest." Prince yanush said to the three.
So Chechen, Catherine and Victor saluted the prince and left the room.
The gate closed slowly behind the three people, and the pointer of the mechanical clock in the corridor reached 3 p.m., less than three hours from the dinner.
"Catherine, I didn''t expect to be with you at night."
As soon as he got out of the gate, Cherchen said happily to Catherine.
"I didn''t expect it either. When the prince sent me to the great prince, I still wondered."
"Have you seen Princess Helena?"
"Yes. She and her father also live in the Grand Prince''s courtyard. I know Helena has suffered a lot in Moscow, but now the pain has come. I swear to her that I will never leave her again."
"Didn''t lord fiordo object?"
"No. he saw that I was highly valued by Prince boguslav, and now talking to me is sweeter than honey. And just now the great prince promised me that as long as I work hard for the razeviu family, he will be the witness of my marriage to Princess Helena!" Catherine said excitedly.
"Cough."
Originally, Cherchen was about to congratulate Catherine on finally getting married, but their greetings were interrupted by Victor''s cough.
Seeing Catherine and Cherchen''s attention attracted by themselves, Victor put down his fist in front of his lips.
"Gentlemen, I didn''t want to interrupt your nostalgia, but now let''s talk about the garrison at night. I mean, my infantry is responsible for the security of the castle, and two soldiers are responsible for the periphery of the castle," Victor said. His serious tone made Catherine feel that Victor regarded himself as his men.
This plan was naturally opposed by Catherine.
"Mr. lieutenant, the order given to me by Prince bogusslav is very clear, that is to come to the castle to take charge of the security work. You have arranged me outside the castle now, which obviously violates the order given to me by the prince. Of course, as a soldier, I will obey the order, but please get the warrant to change the original order from Prince bogusslav to me." Catherine said in a low voice.
And Chechen also said, "Lieutenant, I will obey your arrangement. But I want to remind you that several of my officers are veterans with unique skills. If there is any emergency at the dinner, they will play a greater role in the castle than outside the castle."
Hearing that Catherine and Chechen disagreed with their plan, Victor blew his beard and stared. He thinks that as a prince, he is responsible for the prince''s dinner today. Of course, everything should be done according to his orders.
However, one of them is boguslav, the other is his own hometown and the Savior of Prince yanush. It is rare for them to cooperate once, and Victor doesn''t want to make the relationship too stiff. So Victor asked them what other better ideas they had.
"Since we want to ensure the safety of the dinner party, we should arrange the most elite of the three teams in the castle. There are two doors in front of and behind the miyagilsk castle, and we arrange 20 people to guard each door. In the castle, in order to prevent spies from sneaking in and trying to cheat, four to five soldiers should be arranged at each stairway and aisle. Then the banquet hall is Most importantly, I suggest that our three teams arrange the best people here. But there are a lot of guests at the party in the evening, and our people should be about 30, "said Catherine calmly.
As the personal guard of Prince boguslav, Catherine knows the situation of MIA telsk Castle very well. This scheme not only takes into account both inside and outside, but also tight outside and loose inside, taking care of the normal progress of the banquet.
For this scheme, Victor''s heart also thinks it is impeccable. At this time, he also showed the quality of an honest soldier.
"Well, let''s arrange it according to this plan," Victor said to the two.
"Ah?"
Chechen and Catherine were surprised that Victor was so open-minded.
"Ah, what? If there is a better plan for me to choose from, of course I will consider it. But Catherine''s plan is already the best, so I certainly have no other suggestions," Victor said.
Now they couldn''t help but respect him.
"Yes, Lieutenant victor."
This time, Chechen and Catherine shouted sincerely.
