After Victor left, Chechen continued to look at the sea.


    At this time, if someone looks at Chechen''s face, he will see a cold and strange black face.


    After talking to Victor de la Buscado, Cherchen fell into hell.


    Just now, Chechen was cheating victor.


    From Victor''s words, he understood that Christina''s sister had become a bargaining chip for King Jan kazimiz and Carl x, and was a chess piece that could be abandoned at any time.


    But what can he do?


    As the Lord of the Republic of Poland, should he betray his king?


    Remember, betrayal is a great sin.


    Besides, everything about him is in the Republic of Poland.


    Worried about Christina''s fate and helpless, Cherchen quickly boarded a small boat and came to an adjacent big ship.


    Alvid Wittenberg is on this ship.


    When he left the fort Mia telsk, Victor divided Christina and alvid Wittenberg into different ships. At that time, Victor said that alvid wiedenberg was the field marshal of Sweden and had fought in Poland for many years. Although he had spent the past few years in prison and his appearance had changed greatly, there were many people who knew him. Victor was worried that he would be recognized by mercenaries.


    Now think about it, this statement is extremely far fetched. The people on this ship recognized the former Swedish marshal. Can''t the people on that ship recognize it? Victor separated Christina from alvid Wittenberg. I''m afraid it was king Jan kazimiz or queen ludwiga who worried about affecting the plan.


    Chechen feels suspicious of everything he looks at now.


    When Chechen walked down the cabin. He saw alvid Wittenberg and Catherine rolling the dice.


    Seeing Chechen''s sudden arrival, Wittenberg showed his surprised eyes. He put the dice back in his pocket.


    And Catherine stood up.


    Catherine was picked up by Chechen temporarily. Because he was separated from yelishei and others, there was a serious lack of qualified officers under Chechen''s hands. In desperation, Chechen had to look for Catherine''s help with a shy face with Pedro. This time, Catherine did not refuse, and her Helena also expressed support - if it were not for Cherchen, the money Prince boguslav owed them would be a dead debt. As Catherine, both husband and wife are people with clear gratitude and resentment. If you have kindness, you must repay it.


    "Then I''ll go out first," said Catherine.


    He knew that Chechen must have something important to say to Wittenberg when he came suddenly.


    After Catherine left, Chechen told alvid Wittenberg what he had heard from Robert Douglas and victor.


    He was eager to draw on the wisdom of the marshal.


    After listening to Chechen''s words, alvid Wittenberg habitually touched the goatee.


    What will happen next? Alvid Wittenberg made the following guess: if the negotiations are really going on, after estimating that the fleet has passed the Swedish checkpoint on the river bank, Jan kazimi, who negotiated with Carl X''s Secret envoy, will disclose to Carl X that Christina and alvid Wittenberg will arrive in Riga and launch a plan to overthrow Carl X''s rule there.


    Next, Karl x will have only two options: first, to reach peace talks with the Republic of Poland; Second, continue to fight with the Republic of Poland, and then face the dilemma of being attacked from both sides.


    Wise as Carl, he knows how to choose. Even if Karl x chose to continue the war, the Republic of Poland would not lose more than it does now.


    As for Christina and herself, their fate depends entirely on the decision of Carl X - which is why King Jan kazimiz wanted to keep in touch with Victor de rabskado through a fishing boat on the dogava river.


    If the contract fails, all previous plans in Warsaw will remain the same.


    When the contract becomes 10%, not only the mercenaries will stand still, but perhaps Christina will also be given to Carl x as a "gift" negotiated and reached.


    From the perspective of the Republic and King Jan kachmidge, they did so for good reason and for granted.


    But alvid Wittenberg was neither the king nor the queen of Poland, and he never considered issues from the perspective of the interests of the Republic.


    Moreover, after thinking, alvid Wittenberg secretly ridiculed the small pattern of Jan kazimiz. He only focused on the armistice, not on regaining the throne of the kingdom of Sweden, as he had guessed.


    But in fact, alvid Wittenberg was completely wrong and underestimated the political wisdom of King Jan kachmidge and his wife queen ludwiga.


    At the beginning, when Queen ludwiga thought of getting help from Christina and alvid Wittenberg, she did have the intention to take the opportunity to regain the crown of the king of Sweden and put it on her husband''s head, just as Wittenberg thought.


    But the development of things was not transferred by her will.


    The change began with the dinner party on the day Christina arrived.


    After the failure of seeking peace in Jan kachmidge, Carl X''s Secret envoy found several respected noble elders of the Republic Parliament and carried out a carrot and stick operation.


    So, an absurd scene appeared. When King Jan kachmidge was ready to continue the war, the aristocratic elders of the parliament did not want to fight.


    As we all know, according to the Henry treaty, the king had no right to declare war or negotiate peace without the approval of Parliament.


    As long as parliament does not want to fight, the king can do nothing.


    After all, everything must be handled in accordance with the basic law.


    So, while Cherchen was raising money, Jan Kazimierz secretly sent a special envoy to the Swedish military camp under the pressure of the elders to continue negotiations with Carl X.


    The special envoy went to the Swedish military camp just when Christina and others left Warsaw for miyagilk.


    That''s why Jan kazimi will do so next day.


    Being the king of Poland is so helpless. Even if you are resourceful, you can only succumb to reality.


    Back to reality.


    Che Chen saw that he had finished, but alvid Wittenberg just touched his goatee and was silent. He also showed a difficult smile from time to time. He urgently asked, "marshal, what should we do now?"


    "We should


    Alvid Wittenberg was about to say that he wanted Cherchen to seize Victor''s military power and help Christina by himself, but he immediately realized that it was too explicit for Cherchen to accept it all at once, and please be better than a fierce general. All he had to do was let Cherchen make up his mind.


    "What shall we do? What else can we do? I should go back to the dungeon, and her majesty will spend her life in the monastery," said alvid Wittenberg, wiping his tears.


    Chechen''s face became more ugly.


    After a while, he asked, "is there no other way?"


    Alvid Wittenberg peeked at Chechen''s face, and he continued to wipe his tears.


    "There''s nothing I can do. You might as well repeat what you just told me to her majesty. Maybe she can do it. Also, don''t tell her that you''ve been here, so as not to make her lose heart and despair because of my powerlessness."


    Chechen had to leave unhappily.


    "That''s what happened."


    After returning to his boat, Chechen immediately repeated what he had said with alvid Wittenberg to Christina.


    After listening to Chechen''s words, different from the anxious Carlson, Christina''s face was calm, as if Chechen was not talking about herself.


    Perhaps because after too many betrayals, she is used to it.


    When Carlson saw that the queen was silent, he said anxiously, "Your Majesty, we''ll go right away. When the fleet stops at anchor and rests at the shore in the dead of night, I''ll escort you out of this dragon''s pool and tiger''s den."


    Christina didn''t respond to Carlson''s suggestion. She gently raised her head and said to Chechen, "thank you, Chechen. At least even if everyone betrayed me, you won''t."


    When Chechen heard Christina say so, he knelt down in front of Christina on one knee.


    "Never, sister Christina."


    Christina picked up Cherchen and patted the back of Cherchen''s hand in comfort.


    At this time, Carlson also fell to his knees. He pulled his clothes and sleeves at Christina and expressed his loyalty and determination not to betray to the queen.


    Christina helped Carlson up again.


    "In fact, the situation is not as bad as expected," Christina said easily to Carlson and Cherchen. "The contract may not be reached, and even if it is reached, Carl is now terminally ill. He may stay in Lithuania because he only sends Magnus de la gardiye to pay me."


    Clearly, Christina is the one who needs comfort most now, but she comforted Cherchen and Carlson and told them not to think about the worst.


    But Chechen understands that the probability of this possibility is very small.


    "Sister Christina," Chechen seemed to have made a great determination. He knelt down on one knee again, "if you believe me, please continue to wait as if you don''t know anything."


    Cherchen''s voice did not fall, Christina said in a loud voice; "I believe, I will always believe you. But Cherchen, what are you going to do?"


    Che Chen shook his head. He resolutely refused to reveal his inner thoughts.


    "Sister Christina, don''t ask me what I want to do."


    After that, Christina pretended to be completely unaware. She stayed in the cabin as usual and went up to the deck only after the other mercenaries on the ship slept at night. When Victor stood respectfully behind him and wished Christina a successful reset, Christina''s blessing to Victor showed the same dignified smile.
