Old poglexie was sent out of the monastery with two priests. The two priests were sent to the Swedish Barracks as representatives of the peace talks. Of course, the so-called peace talks are just a plan devised by President koldzki to delay time.
The news brought by poglexie had spread through the monastery by word of mouth, and everyone was elated. They lit all the tar barrels, and some fired indiscriminately to express their joy. From the Swedish barracks, the monastery seemed to fall into a fire. This surprised alvid wiedenberg and others. Of course, the two priests explained that the monastery was celebrating the upcoming peace talks.
Chechen sat next to a gun and put his hands on his knees looking at the northeast. The news from old poglexie made him anxious. Yanush was defeated. He didn''t know what happened to Uncle Pedro? How''s Fatima? Whether yelisi was injured, etc. he was worried about the safety of the mercenary regiment and really wanted to go back to Lithuania immediately.
But now, how did he go?
"What''s the matter with you, alvar? Is it because of the defeat of yanush?"
While Cherchen was upset, Natalie sat beside him.
Natalie can be said to be the first person to find out something different about Chechen. She saw that Chechen was not happy when she heard the news that the monastery was about to win. After old poglexie left, she walked away alone. She knew that he was worried. In connection with old poglexie''s speech, she mentioned yanush''s defeat in Lithuania. Natalie guessed that Cherchen must be depressed about this matter.
"You don''t need to worry so much. Although Prince yanush is full of evil, he is a great nobleman of the Republic. As long as he surrenders, commander sapega won''t hurt him, and I believe the king will forgive him. Although this is not the result I want to see," Natalie said.
Obviously, Natalie mistakenly thinks that Chechen is worried about yanush, who once had the friendship of master and servant.
"It''s not like that, Natalie. I''m worried about my uncle and the companions of the mercenary regiment." seeing Natalie, she would be wrong, Chechen explained. Moreover, he also needs a target to talk to.
"My uncle and I came from Spain. At first, we worked as mercenaries in Smolensk. There I made a group of friends. They came together because of their own unfortunate experiences. Later, by chance, I saved yanush, who was still a great hero of your Republic. Yanush made me a hero in order to thank me for saving my life His family officials also funded to set up a mercenary regiment for me to command. So my friends and I finally have a home. We fought for yanushi and ourselves, and fought against czar Russia and the allies. Now yanushi has been defeated. I know he is a sinner, and he is to blame. What I worry about is whether my uncle and those friends are well I really shouldn''t have left the mercenary regiment. I wish I had been with them. "
Said, Che Chen cried. This was the first time he had shown a weak side in front of Natalie.
His head rested on Natalie''s solid thigh and sobbed like a kitten.
Natalie was startled by Chechen''s move. She subconsciously wanted to push Chechen''s head away. But when she saw Che Chen crying bitterly, her heart softened. Natalie no longer resisted Chechen''s move, but stroked Chechen''s hair to comfort him:
"Don''t worry, alvar. The war is coming to an end. Didn''t you hear that? The Swedes will withdraw in another month, and I will accompany you to Lithuania. I believe God will bless your uncle and your friends. If they are captured and fall into the hands of the allies, there is no need to worry. Commander sapega is calming down After Lithuania, he will certainly attack the Swedes. He needs people who can fight. He will be kind to them and solicit them for his own use. "
Natalie tried to guide Chechen to think for the better. As for accompanying Che Chen to Lithuania, she didn''t know why she said these words. Originally, after completing the task of retrieving the crown, she was going to rush back to Silesia immediately.
Che Chen''s cry was reduced, and the two teenagers snuggled up. In the darkness aside, father sparsokukotsky looked at them with a happy smile on his face and slowly retreated back to the darkness.
The negotiations between the monastery and alvid wiedenberg began early in the morning the day after the two priests and old poglexie arrived at the Swedish barracks.
The negotiations between the two priests and alvid Wittenberg and Anders Eriksson began with an endless wrangle. According to the request of dean koldzki, the priest must obtain Carl X''s guarantee that the monastery will not be infringed before the monastery meets and closes. This was unacceptable to the two generals. They must surrender immediately. Because the road was closed by heavy snow, even alvid Wittenberg sent a messenger to get the king''s guarantee regardless of the danger. This time, it took more than a month. By that time, whether the monastery surrendered or not was meaningless to them.
Alvid wiedenberg excitedly said to the two priests, can''t he convince the chancellor of koldzki if he is a Swedish general? Would he deceive a group of monks?
But no matter how hysterical alvid Wittenberg roared and threatened with both soft and hard, the two priests just didn''t let go. He bluntly pointed out that vreshzovic was the subordinate of alvid Wittenberg. Long after his sneak attack on the monastery failed, general alvid Wittenberg''s credibility was zero.
During this period, General Anders Eriksson continued to round the field. Finally, the two priests said that if the Swedish army could stop fighting for three days to show their sincerity, they could take the words of the two generals back to the monastery.
Alvid wiedenberg had no choice but to agree to the proposal temporarily. He repeatedly said that three days, only three days. The two priests nodded and said yes.
Although the three-day period was short, the monastery used this difficult armistice to strengthen its defense from the inside. Three days later, when the two priests entered the Swedish barracks again, they made another suggestion that if the monastery could get the assurance of the order, they would also be willing to make peace with general alvid wiedenberg.
The headquarters of the order is located in Krakow, which is much closer than Warsaw. Alvid Wittenberg estimated that he could go back and forth in ten days at the slowest. The general wanted to agree to the proposal immediately, but Anders Ericsson stopped it. Unlike the impatient Wittenberg, Anders Eriksson is insightful. He has understood that both the king''s guarantee and the order''s endorsement are a delaying measure of the monastery. They are delaying time.
After hearing Anders Eriksson''s words, alvid Wittenberg was furious. He was about to hang the two priests at the muzzle of the gun to carry out the "shooting". But this was dissuaded by Anders Ericsson. Anders Eriksson believed that since the two countries exchanged troops and did not cut envoys, since the two priests dared to come, they must have put life and death aside, and there was no point in killing them.
But alvid Wittenberg''s remaining anger remained. He hung the two priests at the foot of the mountain.
