The Last Frontier of Fire and Sword

Chapter 221: Battle of Lidar Castle 1

"I didn't expect Victor to become so decadent now."

On the way back to the mercenary group, Cheerchen sighed and said. He didn't expect that Victor, who had been so strict before, would now resolve the contradiction between the original infantry team and the militia by dividing and conquering.

"This is not surprising. Men, especially those like Victor, once fall in love, then he will quickly put his career aside." Piedro analyzed Chechen.

Victor fell in love? Who is he with? Cheerchen was really surprised by the news. He hurriedly asked Pedro.

"You don't know yet?" Seeing Cheerchen's surprise, Pidro was a little unbelievable. This gossip had already spread in Werner.

"I've been busy with the mercenary group these days..." Cheer Chen explained, and then urged Pidro to quickly talk about what happened.

"He is with the Duchess of Corfu," Piedro told Chechen.

The news simply made Cheerchen a little overwhelmed. He knew that Victor had lived with Mrs. Corff, but Duke Corff was still alive after all, and they had two children. How did the two elope?

"Duke Corf is dead." Pidro explained the reason to Cheerchen.

It turned out that after Prince Korff's family arrived in Werner with Prince Yanush, Duke Korff still did not change his bad habit of drinking. He knew that his wife had a leg with Victor, but at this time the Duke had no intention and was unable to stop anything. He could only use alcohol to numb himself. Finally, one night, the drunk duke fell into the ditch inadvertently. By the time someone found the duke the next morning, the poor duke had already died of severe head bleeding. Mrs. Corff became a widow, and she no longer had any responsibility to Duke Corff, so she stayed with Victor, who really liked herself.

After listening to the whole story, Cheer Chen couldn't help but sigh. However, Mrs. Corff once helped herself and Christina in times of crisis, and Victor was a good person despite being staid. Cheerchen also sincerely hopes that the two can be happy together.

"So now Victor has already handed over most of the infantry team's affairs to his officers. Relying on those capable lower-level officers, the infantry team can still run smoothly, but suddenly a militia of more than 900 people came. , Just relying on those lower-level officers is unsustainable. I think this is the reason why Victor compromised with that Tomas." Pidro concluded at last.

"Then you won't say a word when I'm dragging you to find Victor to find a way." Cheerchen gave Pidro a dissatisfied look.

"Isn't Victor's current method very good? Since no one is convinced, let them take care of their own things. We grabbed two infantry squadrons and artillery squadrons, and handed over the cavalry to Al Gildas. This way. For one thing, there are fewer contradictions. But if you don't plan to play for Prince Yanush anyway, you should make them quarrel more." Piedro said pointedly.

Chechen heard that Uncle Pidro was still angry at asking the priest to contact Mihavu and the others. Pidro's meaning is very clear, even if you are leaving, what are the contradictions between them? Bachter, they have a conflict with Algierdas, isn't it more conducive for you to take away the team?

Cheerchen couldn't refute Pidro's words, because if he really wanted to leave Yanush, his current state was indeed the best. But he didn't want to use this method to influence Bacht and the others. In fact, in his original plan, he hoped that Basit and the refugees could settle down in Werner.

"That's all. Let's try Uncle Victor's method first."

After much deliberation, Cheer Chen did not have a better way. He had to compromise with reality.

Cheerchen didn't notice. When he was saying "I have to do so," Piedro's shoulder trembled, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Pidro was glad that Cheerchen had not led the situation to a situation that was more conducive to his departure, which meant that the nephew was actually still hesitating.

After that, Chechen, who returned to the mercenary group, immediately reported to Yanush. He applied to the prince for a larger area to house Algildas and his cavalry. Yanush approved the report immediately. At the same time, Cheerchen summoned Fatima and others who had originally planned to be incorporated into the cavalry, and gave the entire cavalry company to Al Gildas.

Although this caused some dissatisfaction within the mercenary group, it was suppressed by Cheechen and Pidro. Correspondingly, Algierdas is extremely satisfied with this plan. He thinks this is an expression of Cheerchen's favoritism~lightnovelpub.net~ It is rare for Algierdas to express his gratitude to Cheerchen and said that he will work hard. The cavalry company was trained to live up to the high hopes of the prince and regiment.

Another week passed. During this period of time, the infantry squadron and the cavalry company were in peace for the time being. After training the cavalry, Cheerchen pulled the infantry squadron out of the city to fight with the artillery company every day, in order to strengthen the infantry and the cavalry company. Coordination of artillery.

Just give me three more months, this mercenary group should be able to reach the level of an ordinary Swedish infantry squadron. This was Cheerchen's expectation, but this expectation was shattered by a rebellion that no one had expected.

Jan Sobieski, the Polish lord who was once trusted by Prince Janusz, raised the flag of rebellion in Lidaburg and blatantly rebelled against Janusz Laziviu. Following him were Jan Zamois and others who were imprisoned by Prince Yanush. These people were originally given by Yanusz to his cousin Boguslav as a gift to apologize to Karl X. Now they have all become his enemies.

When Cheor Chen received the order to come to the castle, numerous officers and nobles were whispering to each other on the stairs in the castle to exchange information with the servants of the castle. Some money-greedy servants sold the information they overheard to the nobles and officers. The information was varied, and there was everything. Some say that Prince Boguslav has joined the side of Prince Janusz, and he will fight against Jan Sobieski together; some say that the Prince has asked Marshal Brahe Wichensburg for help, and the Marshal is leading the Swedish army to rush. Come; it is also said that Deputy Commander Pavel Sapega has made contact with Jan Sobieski, and the two armies are marching towards Werner; the most sensational news is that the Prince is hearing about Jan Sobies After Ji betrayed him, his old wounds relapsed from shame and anger, and he was already dead.
