But king Jan kazimiz shook his head. He waved his hand and held back. When he was left alone in the main hall, King Jan kazimiz said to Chechen, "No. there is no big war in Prussia. I called you back because of another thing, something closely related to the election of emperors and princes."


    When it comes to the elector, the king''s face is endless loneliness and bitterness, as if he had lost a big battle.


    That face was just as bitter as Natalie said in konotop that she would return to the Republic when the emperor was elected.


    The peace with the elector was indeed not a victory, for Frederick William took almost all the benefits he wanted from the weak Republic.


    Although the elector signed the rabio treaty with Carl x, the treaty signed with the aggressor seeking to seize the territory of the suzerain country is illegal anyway, because the king of Poland is still nominally the suzerain. If it is in the "golden age" of the Republic of Poland, even in peacetime, rebellious independence will inevitably lead to the pressure of the Polish army.


    But now the Republic of Poland has suffered unprecedented heavy losses. It urgently needs to end the war, which gives Frederick William the bargaining chip to dare to bargain with the Republic.


    Moreover, the internal and external situation at that time was also very favorable for the electors.


    In Poland, the nobles who lost their territory in the war between the Republic and Czarist Russia gathered together to form a powerful political force. The appeal of this political force is to recapture Smolensk and other territories occupied by czar Russia. The slogan they shouted was "go back to your hometown!". This political force joined with the aristocrats who lost Ukrainian territory because of the zaporoze Cossack uprising and guided domestic public opinion. So that a large number of Polish nobles hope to create a strong anti Swedish alliance and accelerate the armistice with Sweden, so as to spare their hands to continue the war against Russia.


    In April 1657, the Holy Roman emperor Ferdinand III died. The Habsburg family hoped to get the elector to support the Habsburg family in the next election. Ferdinand III had previously allied with King Jan kazimiz and provided him with more than 10000 troops to assist the Republic of Poland in its war against the kingdom of Sweden and czar Russia. Before his death, Ferdinand sent a special envoy to meet with King Jan kazimiz and told King Jan kazimiz that he hoped that the king of Poland would accept the rule of Frederick William and his family in Prussia. Ferdinand III did so, of course, to win Frederick''s support for the Habsburg candidate in the next election. Ferdinand III''s request was actually no different from the threat, because Poland urgently needed the army of the Holy Roman Empire to recover the lost areas in the north and deal with the possible return of Russia in Ukraine.


    Moreover, although tens of thousands of troops in the headquarters of konisburg were also hit one after another, the main force was still there. This army is still a great threat to Poland. If it refuses to sign, it may trigger a chain reaction. Many people worry that Friedrich may form a stronger alliance with Sweden.


    Frederick William himself is also very good at dancing.


    His special envoy constantly visited the elders of Parliament, famous families and dignitaries in Poland, and assured them that "as long as the contract is reached, konisburg and Prussia will always be the most loyal allies of the Republic of Poland". These remarks and the money spread by the elector succeeded in turning many people, including yarimi''s widow, into their own lobbyists. They kept saying good words for the elector and forced King Jan kazimiz to submit.


    Under these heavy pressures, King Jan kazimiz had to give in. If it is in an autocratic country, the king will say king, and he may stick to it. Because his wife, Queen ludwiga, has realized with her female keen intuition that the loss of Prussia will be a great disaster.


    And history has proved that the meeting of Queen ludwiga is correct. The loss of Prussia not only caused tax and population losses, but also the birth of independent Prussia became a sharp sword hanging in northern Poland. The kingdom of Prussia rose in later generations and dominated the division of Poland three times at the end of the 18th century.


    But in the Republic of Poland, the power of the king is weak. Because parliament dominates everything. Moreover, no one would expect Prussia to grow into such a behemoth in the future. Finally, King Jan kazimiz had to reach a secret peace treaty with Frederick William elector in 1658.


    The treaty provides that:


    1、 Poland recognizes the absolute sovereignty of the hohensolen family represented by Frederick William in the Grand Duchy of Prussia. The two countries have severed their vassal relations and have equal diplomatic status.


    2、 The hohensolen family has the legal hereditary title of the Principality of Prussia. If the male heir of the hohensolen family is cut off, the Principality of Prussia will return to the Polish royal family.


    3、 Elmland collar returned to Poland;


    4、 Prussia and Poland formed an "eternal alliance", and Friedrich gave assistance to 8000 soldiers of the other side;


    5、 Poland must pay 120000 Taylor to compensate Brandenburg for war losses;


    6、 Catholics in the changed territory shall be given freedom of belief.


    Originally, the treaty and its contents were extremely secret. But somehow, when King Jan kazimiz was about to sign the treaty with the elector, Carl x suddenly knew the existence and content of the treaty.


    Carl x knew that he could not offer more conditions than this treaty to attract the elector to stay in his camp, so he rushed out of the wall and sent assassins to kidnap the elector''s wife and son, and used it as a chip to coerce the elector to stay in his alliance.


    "I have found out that the elector''s wife and children are imprisoned in devonskeburg. Alvar Chechen. I want you to find a way to save the elector''s wife and children." King Jan kazimizh said the real purpose of calling Chechen back from Ukraine in such a hurry.


    Hearing that it was such a task, Chechen didn''t bow down to accept it immediately, but stood there straight and didn''t say a word.


    King Jan kazimiz''s face was a little ugly. He thought Cherchen was afraid of difficulties.


    In fact, Chechen didn''t accept the task immediately because he was afraid of difficulties. Yes, saving people from devonshburg was indeed not a simple thing, but he knew that since the King opened his mouth and his loyal and patriotic wife was in his family, the matter would fall on him anyway. What he considered was how to seek the best interests for himself while taking over the task - what he should ask King Jan kazimiz for.


    Before, Cherchen had never asked for a reward in advance, and what contributed to Cherchen''s transformation was a meeting with Muhammad gley during the defense war of konotop.


    It was when the coalition led by Natalie lifted the siege of Prince Alexei on konotop, Chechen went to the Tatar barracks outside the city to thank Muhammad gley.


    He did have reason to thank Mohamed gley for killing Khan''s favorite Minister Alan and "shelling" begzisalai with air guns when he left Crimea.


    Although the blame lies with Muhammad gley and Alan, it is clear from Chechen that Muhammad gley must resent himself. It suits him not to help himself and sit back and watch his destruction.


    After accepting Chechen''s thanks, Muhammad gley deliberately asked in front of the public how King Jan kazimizh rewarded him after leaving for Poland.


    This makes Chechen a little embarrassed. Because he got nothing but the so-called noble title.


    Even the fort Brest, which was originally promised, has been breaking the appointment until now.


    But at this time, of course, Cherchen could not expose the king''s indifference to himself in front of Muhammad gley. He was shocked and replied that King Jan kazimizh made himself governor of bratsraf.


    Muhammad gley knew exactly how the governor Chechen came from. He laughed and laughed at the generosity of King Jan kazimiz. Then, Muhammad gley jokingly said to Chechen that if he had stayed in the khanate, he would be a vassal now.


    Although Chechen was undoubtedly a pagan vassal, the gap between before and after still made Chechen blush.


    That is, after that, Chechen secretly vowed not to let any bad checks fool him again.


    Give, he will get everything he deserves.


    At this time, King Jan kachmidge saw that Chechen had been silent for a long time. The Supreme Master couldn''t help asking, "what? Chechen, are you afraid of difficulties?"


    Chechen returned to God. He had figured out what to ask King Jan kachmidge for.


    "No, your majesty," Chechen replied.


    With that, Chechen lowered his head to his waist and asked, "I accept your order, but I hope your majesty can take Brest fortress as a reward for me to complete this task."


    King Jan kazimiz''s face was blue.


    In fact, after Chechen became governor of Bratslav, King Jan kachmidge never thought of handing Brest over to Chechen.


    The reason is very simple. Cherchen already has Bratslav and 10000 Cossacks. If he gets Brest again, how big will his power be? Isn''t it artificial to create a powerful minister?


    Although Queen ludwiga trusted Cherchen, she also believed that we must take precautions.


    After all, when current events change, people will change. Just like Bogdan hemelinitsky, when he was young, he was not a loyal minister of the Republic, but when he was old, he was late and became a great evil of the Republic.


    Queen ludwiga also believed that limiting Cherchen''s power to a certain extent was a kind of love for him.


    King Jan Kazimierz thought that Chechen could understand his meaning, but he didn''t expect that Chechen took the opportunity to threaten himself at this time.


    Chechen openly asked for Brest by asking for him, which was a sign that Chechen became a powerful minister and warlord in the eyes of King Jan kachmidge.


    Jan kazimiz''s face turned from green to black. He thought his dignity had been hurt.


    But when Jan kazimizi was about to export and refuse, Queen ludwiga hurried out from behind.


    The Queen walked quickly and shouted, "of course it''s no problem. Cherchen, Brest should have been yours."


    The queen went to the king and secretly took Jan kazimiz''s hand, motioned him to bear his anger and agreed to Chechen''s request.


    King Jan kazimiz was finally pressured by the Queen''s hint.


    "Of course, it makes sense," he said.
