Chapter 239

    The tunnel that was successfully defended by Pedro and his team did not work in the end. When it was about to be excavated to the bottom of Lida fort, the garrison of Lida Fort found it with an urn. The garrison successfully connected the tunnel through reverse excavation and buried explosives to destroy it. All the engineers working in the tunnel were buried by the collapsed tunnel.


    In this way, in a month, ojinsky spent countless time, manpower and material resources, used almost all siege methods, but still got nothing.


    In desperation, ojinski had to write a sincere letter to Prince yanush. In the letter, ojinski reported to the prince the achievements of the army over the past month and the tragic situation of the enemy forces in Lida fort in constant fear under their own attack. At the end of the letter, ojinski mentioned the high trench in Lida fort, and Jan sobeski transformed it into a bastion. Although the prince''s army can go down overnight, it will pay great casualties. In order to reduce losses as much as possible, the soldiers in front urgently hope that the giant artillery promised by the prince will come as soon as possible. Before that, the prince''s army will closely surround Lida fort to prevent a rebel from escaping.


    As soon as the messenger set out, the officers of each military camp decided to stop the attack on Lida fort, even the routine shelling. After a month of hard struggle, the prince''s army under the fortified city was already exhausted, and some polish militia even fled.


    A temporary armistice is the best thing for Chechen. In the battle of more than a month, the mercenary regiment has killed and injured forty or fifty people. Although the number of casualties is small, there are casualties every day, but no progress has been made, which is also a great blow to morale. At this time, the mercenary regiment also needs to rest to boost its morale. And he calculated the time, and father spasokuko, who went to Vige, should be back. I don''t know what kind of news he will bring back.


    Chechen looked forward to it in front of the barracks every day, which worried Pedro. Of course, he knew who his nephew was waiting for to come back, but father sparso kuytsky was locked up in Werner by himself. He could not come to Lida Fort anyway, let alone bring the news that Cherchen hoped.


    "Chechen, go back. Dinner is about to begin. Today, aunt VARVARA made your favorite potato beef soup."


    One day at lunchtime, Pedro saw Chechen sitting alone on a small hillside outside the military camp, looking at Werner''s direction, so he stepped forward to remind him.


    "Uncle, I''m not hungry." Chechen said with some interest. He had been waiting for three days, but the priest still didn''t come back. Calculate the time. Even if the priest came to Fort lidar with news from Werner, he should have arrived long ago.


    "Are you waiting for father spasokukotsky?" asked Pedro carefully. His nephew is getting smarter and smarter now. He talks too much. It''s difficult to ensure that Cherchen will not associate the matter of sparsokukotsky''s late return with himself. After all, only two people know the real reason why father spasokukotsky left, and he is the so-called "yanushi" in the regiment, who opposes the contact between Cherchen and mihau.


    "Yes, the priest went to vigil, but he hasn''t come back yet. I don''t know if something happened on the road."


    It turned out that Chechen was worried about the safety of the priest.


    When Pedro heard Chechen say this, a big stone fell down in his heart. Then he was relieved. Chechen still believes in his uncle.


    "I don''t think anything will happen. After all, sparsokukotsky has the identity of a priest. People here believe in Catholics, and even the most ferocious robbers won''t attack a clergy. But Cherchen, do you still want to betray Prince yanush?"


    Pedro sat down beside Chechen. He comforted Chechen first, and then asked.


    "Uncle, haven''t I said this several times?" Chechen took a look at Pedro. He felt that he had made his ideas and reasons very clear.


    "Of course I know. But then I thought about it again. You see, before the priest left, we were still in Werner. At that time, we had not fought with Jan sobesky. We just had a grudge with Jeri haretsky. It was easy to end with the relationship between Anjie and mihau. But now we attack Lida fort of Jan sobesky, which is not easy It''s a general! If he remembers that he hates us, even if the priest really reached any agreement with mihau, but Jan sobesky objected, wouldn''t the agreement be a piece of white paper? "Said Pedro.


    "The last time we were only ordered to act, and the people of yezh halletsky started first. I have seen general Jan sobesky several times, and he is not so careful." Chechen felt that Pedro was a little worried. Why does he always think things are bad.


    "You''re right. But I think so. General oginsky has sent people to Werner to transport heavy artillery. Although the defense of Lida fort is strong, which castle can sustain in front of the heavy artillery. Moreover, it''s been besieged for more than a month. Even without heavy artillery, the food in Lida Fort should be almost consumed. In the end, it''s better to say The prince can win, "added Pedro.


    At first, Chechen was still a little confused when he heard Pedro say so. Because Pedro said that Jan sobeski would not let go of his opponents if he won, and that yanush would win, which was a bit incoherent. But Che Chen thought carefully. He finally understood that there was only one meaning of his uncle, that is to persuade himself to give up his plan to betray yanush.


    Uncle Pedro never changed his mind. Che Chen thought sadly. For a time, he even wanted to hand over the mercenary regiment to Pedro. He and those like-minded people who didn''t want to work for yanush found another way out. Maybe I can be the captain of an infantry team under Anjie''s command.


    "Uncle, I know what you want to say." Chechen interrupted Pedro. He looked into his uncle''s eyes, which showed helplessness and giving up. Pedro was a little hairy.


    "If you really think that staying at yanush is the only way out for us all, then..."


    "Head, deputy head, no!"


    Chechen''s "so" hasn''t finished yet. Caipeishi ran over together. He stumbled off his horse and walked to them.


    "General oginsky is convening a meeting of the officers. Hurry back," said tsepesh breathlessly.


    "What happened?" asked Pedro.


    "Jan sobesky''s reinforcements are coming! There are tens of thousands of people."
