Chapter 373

    On June 21, 1656, after a long journey, the 30000 Lithuanian army led by the Lithuanian commander Pavel sapega finally joined the army of King kazimiz and marshal lubomatsky from Lvov near rajiwuv near Warsaw city.


    On the day commander sapega arrived, a liaison officer brought King kazimiz''s order that the king and field marshal should inspect the Republic Army from Lithuania.


    Therefore, in order to welcome the arrival of his majesty, the team of mihau knights, Anjie''s team, and the team led by the imperial catering officer of the inner court, mihau raziwiu, Jan sobeski and sapega, all arranged in battle formation, one team after another, like a huge wall, waiting for the arrival of the king. The queue was too long to see at a glance. One side of the regiment flag is held by each flagman at an oblique angle of 45 degrees and set up in front of each team to show his respect for his majesty.


    When Jan zenovich, who escorted the king and field marshal, saw such a battle, his team also lined up in an orderly battle queue and stood opposite the Lithuanian army, leaving an open space about 100 steps wide between the two armies.


    Commander sapega, holding a scepter, walked to the open space, followed by yanush and Natalie and the staff of the headquarters, including Prince mihau.


    On the other side, he leapt out of Jan zenovich''s team - King kazimiz.


    The king rode a beautiful Andalusian high headed horse, which was given to the king by Marshal lubomasky when he was in Lvov.


    At this time, King kazimiz wore a light military uniform. He wore a sky blue half breastplate with a golden cross pattern. Under the armor, he could see a long black golden velvet tunic with a wrinkled lace collar turned over the breastplate. The king didn''t wear a helmet but an ordinary Swedish round brimmed hat. There is a white feather on the hat. King kazimiz wore a pair of deerskin gloves on his hands, a saber hanging from his waist, and high black riding boots on his feet.


    Behind the king, marshal lubomasky and commander in chief charnietsky rode with him.


    Commander sapega wanted to salute the king on the horse and help the king off his horse as usual, but unexpectedly, King kazimiz jumped off his horse and went straight to him.


    In full view of the two armies, the king held commander sapega tightly in his arms. For a long time, he was silent, but tears welled up.


    Big tears rolled down his cheeks, because he held tightly in his arms was his most loyal servant. It is true that Pavel sapega''s qualifications are not amazing, and he sometimes makes mistakes, but he is honest and loyal, far better than all the rich and powerful people in the Republic, and always completes his orders without discount.


    Since the outbreak of the Borui war, he has independently supported the dangerous situation of Lithuania. He has never wavered even in the most dangerous time. For his monarch and his country, he has not hesitated to give all his family wealth and is ready to give his blood and life at any time.


    Looking at sapega embraced by himself and his Lithuanian legion, King kazimizh felt that he finally had the confidence to speak.


    Earlier, some Lithuanian officers and soldiers whispered and secretly worried that the Lithuanian army did not arrive as scheduled because of a sudden heavy rain. This time, even if the commander was not blamed by the king, he would at least be ignored. However, the scene in front of him was that the king loved the commander, and his majesty didn''t mean to blame the commander at all.


    Therefore, all the officers and soldiers of the Lithuanian Legion gave a warm cheer for the benevolent monarch, and the thunderous sound went up to the sky. Yang zenovich''s team immediately responded with thunderous cheers, so the thunderous cry of the two armies overshadowed the sound of gunfire and gun salute.


    "Long live King Jan kazimiz!"


    "Long live the Lvov Legion!"


    "Long live the Royal Army of Lithuania!"


    The two armies greeted each other with cheers and thunders, shaking the city walls.


    Some old soldiers burst into tears. They were crying for the monarch of the Republic and the loving father of the soldiers.


    After the reception ceremony, the king was ready to review the teams of the standing Lithuanian Legion. Before that, commander sapega took the opportunity to introduce Prince mihau to King kazimizh.


    "It turned out to be the son of yarimi. Your father is a hero. You are the descendant of the hero and will be a hero of the Republic in the future." King kazimiz encouraged.


    Prince mihau blushed with excitement. He knelt down and kissed kazimieri''s hand, trying to show his love for his father.


    Then yanush and Natalie saluted king kazimiz. King kazimiz praised the visit of yanush and his daughter to Lithuania.


    In the atmosphere of passionate and blood boiling, accompanied by field marshal lubomatsky, commander sapega and commander in chief of charnietsky, King kazimizh hurried to review all the troops of the Lithuanian Legion from left to right. The king expressed his deep gratitude to them for their loyalty and courage.


    When the king came to Mikhail vorodyavsky, commander sapega spoke to the king about the righteousness and strictness of the small Knight when he refused yanush, and King kazimizh appreciated Mikhail''s patriotism.


    "I don''t deserve your praise, your majesty. After all, it is the bounden duty of soldiers to obey orders," said mihau.


    In this regard, King kazimiz said: "although it is the bounden duty of soldiers to obey orders, if the order exceeds a certain limit, it will bring you not honor but guilt."


    After the review, the teams returned to the camp, while commander sapega and janush followed the king. They will also discuss the specific matter of recovering Warsaw.


    The increase in troops gave king kazimizh more options for conquering Warsaw. After soliciting the opinions of commander sapega, the king changed the focus of assault to siege on all sides according to the new plan of the general army of charnietsky, that is, instead of insisting on breaking through from the east of Warsaw City, the general team was assigned to all sides of Warsaw city and then attacked together. Although this will disperse the troops of the siege side, for the Republic, the troops are not only not a problem, but have been greatly surplus. For the Swedish army in Warsaw, only when they face simultaneous attacks from all directions at the same time will they really disperse their combat power and make them unable to concentrate on resisting the attack of the Republic Army.


    Marshal lubaumatsky was jealous that the opinion of the commander in chief of charnietsky was accepted. He hoped that king kazimiz would conquer Warsaw city according to his own plan.


    However, field marshal lubaumatsky did not object, but looked at the commander of chalnetsky with resentment.
