Victor and Chechen's victory is just a microcosm of the battles in Miatelsk. As various foreign mercenary regiments joined the battle and the use of various artillery pieces, the resisters who were scattered everywhere and fighting on their own collapsed one after another. Some of them withdrew from the city and fled to the countryside, while others dropped their weapons and surrendered. By the evening, all the fires in Miatersk had been extinguished, and only a few gunshots were heard occasionally.

These victories inspired Prince Yanush. He seems to see that he can control the situation in Lithuania even without the support of various lords and team leaders.

Among them, the performance of Cheerchen's mercenary group was especially favored by Prince Yanush. Although the victory over Jerzy Khazicki's resistance is largely due to Victor's proper command, the role played by Chelchen's subordinate is not so indispensable and irreplaceable. But the composition of Chechen's mercenary group is too special-most of its officers are foreigners but the soldiers are all Lithuanians.

In the context of the low morale of other local troops and their reluctance to fire on their compatriots, this mercenary group maintained its high morale and loyalty to the Raziviu family, which really surprised Prince Yanush.

Therefore, before the resistance in various parts of the city had completely subsided, Prince Yanush couldn't wait to send people to summon Victor and Chechen. Although the prince actually wanted to see Cheorchen alone, he didn't want to chill Victor's heart because of his favoritism.

In the hall of the castle, Prince Yanush cordially received the two. As always, Prince Yanush first praised the bravery and proper command of the two in battle. Then, the prince handed over the ready-made painting documents worth one thousand taylors and three hundred taylors respectively to the two. With this document, the two can collect the bounty from the steward of the castle.

Before Victor and Cheorchen expressed their gratitude to the prince, Prince Yanush couldn't wait to ask Cheerchen, "Cheerchen, I have seen the performance of your mercenary group today. They behaved very well. Bravery. If the other people under me could behave like them, the civil strife and foreign enemies would have been quelled by me. I know that your mercenary group is different from other mercenary groups, and most of the soldiers are local. People, how did you manage to make their morale so high?"

Cheerchen first expressed his gratitude for the praise of Prince Yanush. Then he said humbly: "There is no secret, Your Royal Highness. I just repeat what you have said to my soldiers."

"What did I say? Which one?" Prince Yanush asked rhetorically. He has said many things, but none of those who made official wishes and coerced and seduced them seemed to have such obvious effect. Those who should betray themselves still betrayed themselves.

"Did you forget?" Chechen was surprised: "You once told me that the purpose of your alliance with the Kingdom of Sweden is to fight against Tsarist Russia. You will lead us back to Smolensk, we will or Jako Husband and sent him to Dai Zhu."

Yanush thought for a while, and he remembered that he did say such things. At that time, it was to keep Cheorchen to continue his allegiance to him that he claimed that he had sought refuge in the Kingdom of Sweden as a fight against Tsarist Russia. Of course, this is actually one of the reasons, but it's not the main reason.

"Yes, I did say that." Prince Yanush affirmed.

"You know, most people in my mercenary group are refugees who fled from Smolensk because they couldn't stand Yakov's oppression. The biggest wish of these people is to return to their homeland one day. I didn’t want to shoot at my compatriots, so I told them about your plan from the prince. They all understood your good intentions and endurance, which regained morale." Prince Shi explained.

After listening to Chechen's account, Prince Yanush came to understand. He secretly scolded himself for not thinking of this level.

Yes, compared to people in other places that have not been under the tyrannical rule of Tsarist Russia, the nobles and civilians in the first occupied areas such as Smolensk, Slutsk, and Minsk have suffered enough. The family escaped from the enemy-occupied area, and the number of people reached tens of thousands. And most of their assets have been left behind, so these people cannot add to the hatred of Tsarist Russia. Relatively speaking, the distant Swedes are abstract and have not harmed them. As long as we advertise to them that the Swedes are here to help us fight Tsarist Russia, we can eliminate the resistance of these people to a large extent and be used by Laziviu.

"It is true, dear Chechen. Thank you for reminding me." Prince Yanush said. Next, he thought of a brilliant idea.

"Lieutenant Victor." Prince Yanush said to Victor: "There is one thing I want to express to you in advance, because I want you to be alone."

"Please don't say that, Your Royal Highness. You are the benefactor of me and the infantry team, and everything we have is given by you. Just give orders to whoever you want to call." Victor said with trepidation.

Prince Yanush nodded in satisfaction. He pointed to Chechen and said, "I want to move Chechen away from your infantry team~lightnovelpub.net~ Don’t get me wrong, I know you two cooperate very well. The relationship is also very harmonious. I did this to expand the army. The current situation is that due to the betrayal of the traitor, what I lack most now is an experienced officer. So for you, I want the lieutenant to be the captain and the company commander to be the regimental commander. I will also deploy personnel for other troops."

Seeing that Prince Yanush wanted to expand the manpower of the mercenary group, Cheerchen was immediately overjoyed. He squinted at Victor secretly, wondering what he thought.

"This is a good thing, how can I misunderstand it! But your Royal Highness, I want to remind you that there are not so many mercenaries in Lithuania right now to recruit."

Victor has no objection to the prince who transferred him, but Victor euphemistically raised his concerns.

"No foreign mercenaries, you just recruit from those refugees. Tell them, we will take them to fight the Russians. And the prisoners, you will break them up and assign them to various teams."

Prince Yanush said confidently with a flushed face. For this problem, recruiting refugees to join the army is his response.

The prince seemed to have seen thousands of soldiers gathered under his command.

"I will always remember your kindness, Prince." Seeing Victor also agreed, Cheerchen said to Prince Yanush gratefully.

"As long as you serve me loyally, that is the best reward. After the rebellion here is completely quelled, I will lead my army to recover Werner as soon as possible. You must recruit as many soldiers as possible as soon as possible." Prince Yanush Said.

Hearing that the prince was about to lead his army to leave Miatersk to regain Werner, Chechen remembered one thing. He asked cautiously: "His Royal Highness, then what do you do with Mihavu and Anjay before this?"
