While commander sapega was enjoying the fruit of the victory of the Holy Spirit church, the Republic army suffered a disastrous defeat to the east of Warsaw city.
The thing is this: since marshal lubomatsky''s army stationed at the east gate of Warsaw city was the first to build fortifications and attack Warsaw City, Marshal''s army was rarely idle when the commander-in-chief of charnietsky and commander sapega were still busy to advance to the city gates and build trenches and tunnels. Marshal lubaumatsky was a restless man, or a man who loved to enjoy himself. He always indulges in sensuality outside the war. Now, with nothing to do, he held a party at night.
42 chefs, 140 chefs and labourers, including 60 servants in uniform - the staff serving the Grand Admiral''s banquet; In addition, there were 400 dozen napkins, 80 dozen silver plates, 60 dozen porcelain plates and silver bowls containing fruits, and countless other catering supplies. All things add up, it''s more than a court dinner.
Of course, King kazimiz and other dignitaries in the Marshal''s camp were invited.
The marshal selectively forgot the commander-in-chief of charnietsky and the commander of sapega.
A happy and noisy banquet officially began at 7 p.m. marshal lubomasky toasted the guests again and again, raised a glass to celebrate the king''s health and longevity, wished the victory of the Warsaw war, and for all regiment leaders and all the troops of the Republic. People drank more and more vigorously, and the atmosphere became more and more active. There were lots of laughter, clinking glasses and toasting. The whole courtyard was full of the mellow smell of honey wine and wine.
Janush came to pototsky.
"What is it? Our capital is still in the hands of the enemy, but the marshal of the Republic has begun to celebrate the victory," yanush complained.
"This is our marshal lubaumatsky," pototsky said to his old friend with a smile.
They touched the glass lightly.
"How many muskets can we buy and how many guns can we forge this night? The mother of the Republic is still ravaged by robbers, but our military spending is so wasted." Natalie came to her father and said angrily.
For Natalie''s indignation, the two old people can only smile bitterly. From the beginning to the end, the marshal spent his own money. Who can blame him?
At this time, the noise came from the window. The noise was no lighter than the noise in the room, even mixed with the sound of swords. At first, it was thought that the horses of each family got drunk and fought - this is a common thing.
But as the sound became louder and louder, and finally came the sound of artillery, people couldn''t help but calm down.
"What''s going on?" one of the regiment leaders asked in surprise.
No one answered him.
The king and the marshal began to feel uneasy. Jan zenovich came to the window. He pricked his ears and listened.
"It''s an enemy attack!" Jan zenovich shouted.
As if in response to his judgment. In an instant, there was a roar of artillery and gunfire, and all the windows in the room were trembling.
Everyone jumped up and a large crowd gathered at the door. Then a group of officers rushed out of the courtyard, and the horses brought horses to their masters.
A group of guards came in with guns. They guarded the king and marshal and other dignitaries.
"Natalie, follow me!" yanushi shouted at Natalie''s position, but his daughter was no longer there.
The enemy attack was indeed launched by the Swedes, but it was not the Swedes in Warsaw, but a Swedish reinforcements from outside the city.
They took the Swedish pistol cavalry as the vanguard, and the gun cavalry as the wings, escorting a team of more than 2000 Swedish infantry and supplies to reinforce Warsaw city.
Since most of the officers of the team attended the Marshal''s dinner, although the Polish soldiers in the camp far exceeded the Swedes in the sneak attack, they ran like headless flies. The Swedish cavalry set fire everywhere and rushed left and right, making it difficult to understand their real purpose.
The infantry and the cart full of supplies went along the gap opened by the Swedish pistol cavalry towards Warsaw city.
Natalie was the first to judge the enemy''s intentions. She came to Jan zenovich, who had assembled a team of more than 50 winged cavalry.
"The Swedes are bluffing, Colonel. Their real purpose is to go into town," Natalie told Jan zenovich.
Jan zenovich was stunned at Natalie''s heroic face, but he woke up immediately.
"Miss Natalie, are you sure?"
"Colonel, trust me. If the Swedes want to raid the king and field marshal, they won''t be scattered around. They want to distract our attention and cover the entry of materials and personnel into the city."
Jan zenovich was also an officer with profound military skills. He immediately understood: "everyone go with me to the city gate."
But they came a little late. Nearly 100 grain carts and infantry escorting them have entered the gate of Warsaw. The Swedish gun cavalry behind the motorcade has almost entered the effective range of the wall artillery at the moment. Only the 100 Swedish gun cavalry behind the cover are still outside the cover range of the artillery. The troops and horses were advancing at full speed, and the Swedish officer after the horse was broken shouted to urge them to go quickly.
With the help of the burning fire, Natalie saw at a glance that the broken enemy was about to escape. She let out a cry as sharp as a whistle. The noise was so loud that even her horse was startled.
Natalie threw herself at the Swedish pistol cavalry with a gun. Inspired by her, the wing cavalry immediately behind them formed two rows with Natalie and Jan zenovich as the center and rushed into the enemy line.
The artillery on the wall of Warsaw began to roar, but the cavalry on both sides were out of range. The Swedish pistol cavalry could not retreat, so they had to draw their swords and guns, and were ready to fight.
The super long lance of the winged cavalry hit the chest of the Swedish pistol cavalry, and countless "iron cans" fell off the horse. The first wing cavalry who completed the assault wound around the enemy on both sides along the open gap, while the second wing cavalry then stabbed the remaining Swedish pistol cavalry who had been disrupted.
If the armies of other countries were hit twice in a row, they would have collapsed, but the Swedish army trained by strict discipline did not break up. The remaining heavy armor pistol cavalry fought fiercely with the winged cavalry who lost the advantage of speed with pistols and broadswords.
