While the Swedish army was in full swing, the Polish barracks were full of laughter. Although the daytime battle was only the vanguard of the Swedish army and destroyed more than 200 Swedes, it was regarded as a good omen for the victory of the Republic Army by King kazimiz and the commander of sapega. King kazimizh, in particular, believed that he was able to win because of his proper deployment. The king''s self-confidence began to expand. He told others in public that he wanted to win a big victory like the Warsaw war. Before, kazimizh''s small goal was to repel the Swedish Prussian coalition.
Pedro and mihau came side by side to attend the king''s celebration banquet in the camp. Along the way, the little Knight kept complaining to Pedro: "I''m not against celebrating the victory, but the victory we achieved today is too insignificant for finally defeating the enemy. Moreover, the Swedes still took the initiative to retreat. I really don''t know what to celebrate."
Pedro listened to mihau''s complaints with a smile. Originally, when Chechen or Anjie was there, mihau said these complaints to them. Now both of them are gone. Mihau regards himself as his father, so he speaks these words to himself.
"Mihau, you are loyal to your duty and have a sense of hardship, which is of course excellent. But his majesty has the consideration of his majesty. Since he invited us to the celebration banquet, we just obey the order. We must not unknowingly refuse his Majesty''s kindness. Besides, we have arranged everything on the position," said Pedro.
Mihau sighed and said, "we should have sent scouts to investigate what happened to the Swedes. I always have an ominous feeling. The victory during the day is too unusual or too easy. It''s like the enemy wants us to win deliberately."
Pedro Leng stood there: "how could you have such an idea?"
Mihau shook his head. "I don''t know. It''s just that a wise commander won''t let cavalry attack his opponent''s well defended positions without artillery and infantry support. Today, the Swedish commander is count owar von Goya. He is not a fool, but a meritorious military model."
Milhau said so, pidro also felt justified. But he couldn''t think of a reason. So Pedro had to comfort mihau in this way: "Maybe the commander of the Swedes, count owar von Goya, just drank too much or his brain burned today. Or maybe the Swedes are the first troops, just under the name of owar von Goya. In fact, the commander is someone else. It''s not uncommon for some dandies to become officers by virtue of their ancestral reputation and pull up flags as tiger skins these days It''s all right. Maybe some fool is this kind of person this time. "
For pidro''s comfort, mihau said something in his heart. The little Knight said: "You know what? Pidro, every banquet always gives me a bad feeling, because bad things happen after every banquet. This is the case of yanush raziwiu, who betrayed the Republic at the banquet; the same is the case under Warsaw, where we were raided by the enemy. I don''t know if it was God''s arrangement, in short , bad things don''t come early or late, but they came when we had a party. I tell you, now when they set the table, I get goose bumps. "
"Nonsense," Pedro scolded mihau, but he didn''t know if it was cold at night. He felt goose bumps on his body.
Next, they stopped talking and silently went to the place where King kazimizh held a celebration banquet.
At this time, there were signs of excitement. The venue was filled with barrels of beer, and some officers'' toilets were drunk, leaning on the empty barrels that had been drunk and talking nonsense; in the middle of the banquet, more than a dozen long Gunners were carrying the helmets left by the Swedes on the battlefield during the day with long guns, performing "the Polish winged cavalry broke the Swedes" King kazimiz is sitting high in the stands and watching with great interest. No, the king''s attendants will sprinkle a handful of Taylor into the field. That''s the king''s reward for the performers.
Pedro and mihau looked around. Pedro saw people everywhere, but none of them knew each other. At this time, Natalie came over.
"Uncle Pedro, head mihau, why are you here now?"
Pedro took Natalie in his arms. He kept saying, "my good daughter, I finally found you."
Natalie smiled in response to Pedro''s intimacy. Seeing that MIHA u was still looking, she asked strangely, "who are you looking for, Captain MIHA u?"
Mihau looked back and said to Natalie with a slight apology, "Miss Natalie, I''m so sorry. I was looking for Colonel Jan skzedusky just now."
"The Colonel doesn''t seem to have come," Natalie said from memory.
"Oh, really?" mihau was disappointed.
Since the end of the Warsaw war, especially when Helena and her two children were rescued, mihau found that his good friend Jan skzedusky was like a different person. He was always silent and had no passion for military affairs and banquets. It is said that Jan skzedusky often drank muggy wine all day long and got himself drunk. And Helena also left Warsaw and returned to her hometown shortly after her husband recovered.
Although mihau is honest and stupid, he can see that there must be something wrong between Jan skzedusky and his wife. Several times he wanted to see his friends, but he couldn''t make the trip because of the busy military affairs.
At this time, the program at the banquet changed again. Commander sapega came to the banquet with a violin and played happily.
Playing the violin is a hobby of commander sapega after work. He once said that if he had not been a soldier, he might have become a violinist in the Republic. Now he is performing in public, and the melody is an expert. The cadence of sapega''s great leader was intoxicated. Slowly, some people sang different songs to the tune of the commander:
"Chop the Swede, chop
Sharpen the sword quickly
Hit the Swede, hit it
Put the gun up
Hit the Swede, hit
Smash their heads
Burn the Swede, burn
Burn them to ashes
Get on your horse, ride
If you''re still a good man. "
At the end of the song, everyone turned red. That excitement. If King kazimiz gave an order at this time, they would kill the Swede camp with sabers. Although the camp is 10 miles away from the Polish position.
Natalie was one of the few people who kept calm at the party. She sighed to Pedro and mihau: "such a party should have been held after we completely defeated the Swedes, but now we just won a small victory. It''s not a good thing for everyone to get so carried away."
"Good daughter, do you think so?"
Pedro told Natalie what mihau said to himself all the way.
Natalie listened with a dignified face. She said, "we should tell the king. At least we should send some scouts to the Swedish camp."
"Miss Natalie, you think it''s necessary!" mihau exclaimed. He didn''t expect that there was a like-minded person here.
"Yes, commander mihau. I think it is necessary to be careful about our opponent Carl X. his military talent and wisdom are unparalleled among the rulers of all countries, and he is surrounded by a military strategist like the elector."
Natalie became more and more worried. She hurriedly took Pedro and mihau by the hand and walked to the high platform.
At this time, the program changed again. Barabaka threw a millstone into the air and took it down with one hand.
The three came to the stage. The guard knew Natalie, Pedro and mihau, so he only asked a little and let the three go up.
King kazimizhi was watching the rise of barabaka''s performance, while Prince mihau was making the king happy with oil in his mouth. The prince''s witty words made king kazimiz laugh and laugh. This prince mihau has the potential to be a sycophant.
"Your Majesty, I have something to say," Natalie whispered.
But king kazimizhi was immersed in the performance and Prince mihau''s jokes, and had no idea of Natalie and the three.
"Your majesty!"
Seeing this, Natalie raised her voice.
Finally, kazimi turned his head. Prince mihau looked at Natalie and his eyes became confused.
Unfortunately, Prince mihau knew that there was no hope for himself and this peerless beauty.
"What happened to Natalie, Pedro and the first knife in our republic?" kazimiz asked.
"Your Majesty, I think today''s victory is a little strange. Should we send scouts to investigate the movements of the Swedes?" said mihau. His words are as straight as his knife.
This immediately made king kazimiz dissatisfied. Kazimierz valued and was proud of the victory he had won under his command today. But this victory in mihau''s mouth, as if the enemy "sent" it to himself.
"Commander mihau, I think your worry is superfluous. The Swedish vanguard troops have just been defeated by us. They are demoralized and are waiting for the arrival of Carl X. what else can they do?" Prince mihau straightened up and rebuked mihau for king kazimi.
The little knight was speechless by Prince mihau.
So Natalie said, "Your Majesty, what we are worried about is not the count of Orval von Goya, but Carl X and the elector. They may have joined the vanguard forces of Orval von Goya. Both of them are peerless heroes. They won''t waste a night in vain."
Natalie''s analysis made king kazimiz meditate. King kazimiz thought for a moment with his chin in his hand, and then asked, "is there any evidence that you say so?"
This question made the three people a little crazy. Natalie and others wanted the king to send scouts. Didn''t they just look for evidence of changes in the enemy?
"Not yet, your majesty," mihau replied honestly.
"Natalie, mihaeu and Pedro, I''m moved by your caution. But I think your worry is superfluous, just like mihaeu (Prince) The Swedes are so angry that they will do nothing but wait for the arrival of Carl X. if you don''t feel at ease, you can send soldiers from your own team to investigate the Swedes'' camp. I believe there will be no other discovery except "everything is normal."
With that, King kazimiz turned his head. He ignored the three people and watched the performance again.
The three had to step back from the stands.
"Anyway, since his majesty has agreed, we will send scouts," mihau said to them.
Of course Natalie and Pedro have no problem.
Therefore, mihau sent cavalry in the team to investigate. The cavalry that could be sent did not go deep. When they found that the Swedes (actually the soldiers of the elector) were building positions, they thought the task had been completed and returned.
It can be said that the failure of the poles was doomed that night.
