Chapter 793

    Stockholm is not just waiting for Christina to be crowned. In fact, on the night of Brauer Wilhelmsburg''s death, a delegation led by General Robert Douglas arrived at Fort Dina.


    The purpose of Robert Douglas''s delegation is to go to Riga and put the crown of the kingdom of Sweden back on the head of its former owner.


    People are so realistic.


    Although Carl X has his own descendants, Carl Xi should inherit his father''s throne in theory. But almost all the generals and nobles in Carl X''s army were not optimistic about him at that time, and they were pessimistic about the situation in Sweden after Carl Xi ascended the throne.


    The reason why everyone distrusts Carl Xi is his age. At this time, Carl Xi was only four years old and a child who knew nothing.


    The wife of Karl x, heidwich ilionora of Holstein GoTop, is a weak woman. She has no commendable talents except relying on her husband and raising her son.


    Of course, for some aspirants, orphans and widows are the best state of the Kingdom, because it is conducive to their control of all the power of the kingdom. But the so-called want to wear the crown must bear its weight, Sweden''s crown is not only heavy, but also a hot potato.


    Excluding the Republic of Poland, Sweden is still making enemies on all sides. Czar Russia, Denmark and Habsburg family are all enemies of Sweden.


    At present, the Kingdom has maintained the situation only by the dividends of Gustav''s reform and the unbeaten record of Carl X. Now Carl x suddenly died of illness. Whoever wears this crown will inherit the mess left by Carl X.


    Among the only two candidates except Carl Xi, Polish king Jan kazimiz was not considered.


    Although he has the blood of the vasa family and has always claimed that he has the legal right to inherit the kingdom of Sweden, the deep blood feud between Sweden and Poland makes everyone not and dare not consider welcoming such a king.


    Moreover, a Catholic king is not in line with the national conditions of Sweden, a Protestant country. At that time, Sigismund III, the father of King Jan kazimiz, lost the throne of Sweden because he was a devout Catholic.


    And the king seemed to care more about his other Catholic territory.


    Then, the only suitable candidate is Christina, who is hostile to Carl X and set up a Rebel Flag in Riga.


    Christina is a former queen. Carl X''s throne comes from her abdication. Christina has natural and legal inheritance rights to the vacant Swedish throne. And she is generous and has no less military ability than Carl X. she is the most suitable king today.


    When a Swedish Duke proposed Christina as the successor to the throne, everyone did not object because Christina was the object of public criticism not long ago, but readily agreed. They have only one request for Christina - that is to pardon them for all their crimes.


    Robert Douglas came with such conditions. After learning about it, Cherchen privately told General Robert Douglas and other members of the mission that Queen Christina should be happy to accept it. After all, except for the small battle this morning, the two sides did not really fight, and there was no deep blood feud on their hands.


    Hearing Cherchen''s promise, the members of the mission were all smiles one by one.


    General Robert Douglas was even more pleased - no one knows yet the great role he played in supporting Christina. However, after the queen ascended the throne, General Robert Douglas believed that the queen would know and appropriately repay him for his great achievements.


    A careful minister also timidly argued that even Brauer Williamsburg''s behavior belonged to his own behavior, which had nothing to do with everyone else. Everyone stopped, but they didn''t stop.


    This was a bit of a icing on the cake. Cherchen and Robert Douglas were embarrassed for a moment.


    After a while, Cherchen answered, "of course. It''s a pity that Brauer Williamsburg died. He could have been a powerful general of the queen."


    Robert Douglas also said: "the marshal chose to go with his majesty Carl X. This is his foolish loyalty, and we chose to continue to serve this country."


    Inside the room, there was a conversation, but outside the room, there had been a dense crowd on the wall, in front of the window and in front of the door. The crowd was so dense that they could run horses over their heads.


    Because these mercenaries had heard the news from the entourage of the mission and vaguely knew the purpose of the mission. Even the slowest people can understand that the decision in this house involves not only Sweden, but also themselves - because once the news that the mission invited Christina to succeed is true, they will all support the Queen''s restoration without bloodshed, and the return will be very rich.


    Everyone is waiting. But no one came out except a few guards in blue uniforms around Chechen and invited some more prominent mercenary officers into the house.


    Hour after hour passed.


    Suddenly, the door slammed open, and Chechen and General Robert Douglas rushed out of it.


    The people outside the door instinctively retreated.


    Chechen walked forward with a smile, and the mercenaries around him consciously walked around him. Everyone didn''t say a word, but they were looking forward to something.


    Chechen went to the middle of the square in dinaborg. He summoned up all his strength and shouted in a thunderous voice: "long live Queen Christina, long live the queen of Sweden!"


    Then, led by General Robert glass, everyone in the mission was repeating Cherchen''s words.


    "Long live Queen Christina, long live the queen of Sweden!"


    After three hooves, right here, in front of all the people present, Cherchen turned to Robert Douglas, then warmly hugged him, and then hugged the Deputy envoy of the mission, Senator Fabian von Wilson, who knew from his name that he had German blood.


    Then all the people began to hug each other. Everyone followed the example of the three adults and hugged each other like their closest friends.


    The cheerful atmosphere spread rapidly. The cheers echoed throughout Fort Dina.


    The next day, Fort Dina became an undefended fortress.


    Under the leadership of Cherchen, all the defenders in the fortress were wearing colorful clothes to protect the mission headed by General Robert Douglas towards Riga.
