The Last Frontier of Fire and Sword

Chapter 564



Cherchen certainly doesn\'t want yelishei to go.

From the establishment of the mercenary regiment to the present, yelishei has made great contributions. He was a good cavalry officer and had great prestige among the soldiers. Even the Hessian cavalry and the Tatar cavalry under the head of Isak revered him. Losing yelishei is equivalent to breaking one of Chechen\'s arms. At least among the officers of today\'s mercenary regiment, there is no better candidate for the post of cavalry captain than him.

Therefore, Chechen tries to persuade old yelishei to change his mind and leave yelishei in his mercenary regiment.

He said, "Uncle yelishei, your son yelishei is a very excellent talent. He is very important and indispensable to our mercenary regiment. I hope you can let him stay and he can stand out here."

Fedot also helped: "that\'s it. The monthly salary given to us by the commander is much higher than the tenancy."

When old yelishei heard the speech, he first shouted angrily to fedot, "is this a problem of money?", and then he pointed out impolitely: "Commander Chechen, since you know my son is a very excellent man, you should understand that he can play a greater role and have a brighter future in our czar Russian army. But in your mercenary regiment, I can\'t see these. Even if you give him more money, what the nobles need is not money but honor, because we regard honor above our own Life. I have three sons. I sent them to the front line to fight for the Czar and Russia. Now, my other two sons are very brave. Even if they die in the war, the poets will compose their stories into poems and sing them on the land of Russia, adding luster to the door emblem of the yelishei family. But yelishei, he should have done the same. But he did it Mercenaries, and also accepted the employment of pagans. God, may he forgive yelishei. I don\'t know how you cheated him into your mercenary regiment, and I don\'t want to know now. I just hope you can let him go back with me, and I\'ll lead him back to the right way. "

In fact, most of the old Boye nobles like old Yeltsin have the unique qualities of people who came from the turbulent era of Czar Russia, the "great turbulent era" of 15 years It is a test, baptism and transformation for czar Russia. It is the so-called "unbreakable and indestructible", the massive reduction of population, the disruption and reorganization of social order, the alternation of old and new aristocrats, and many stubborn diseases of Czar Russia have been alleviated or even resolved because of the war.

The history of the great turmoil is more like a clock movement, initially "tilting" , the destructive process could not be restrained, and all classes of the country joined the great turmoil one by one. However, after passing the lowest point below, the clock entered a rising period. The society gradually united, overcome the chaos, and the country began to recover. The nobles who experienced and were born in this era had more traditional, patriotic, arrogant characteristics and the "ancient style" of loyalty to the country 。

Hearing that his father praised his brother and belittled himself, even if yelisi thought he was right, he was ashamed of his father\'s criticism because of the values developed by his noble education since childhood.

At this time, Cherchen deliberately explained that yelishei did not betray the motherland, but was persecuted by Yakov, and yelishei had never used a sword against his compatriots (if the Don Cossacks were not included).

However, if Chechen tells the whole story, he will certainly go to Moscow to complain about old Yeltsin\'s character. Once he knows that old Yeltsin knows the truth, he will kill people.

Old yelishei saw that Chechen didn\'t speak and thought he had refuted Chechen. He straightened his chest and looked at yelishei with his head down. He looked reasonable and unforgiving.

"The prospect is so bright that your son was almost killed by Yakov cherkaski."

After listening to old yelisi\'s words, he saw that both Cherchen and yelisi didn\'t speak. Fedot, who had just been scolded by old yelisi, couldn\'t help but speak.

"What are you talking about?" old yelishei didn\'t expect fedot to say such words. His son was killed by general Yakov. What\'s the matter?

"Enough, fedot."

"Fedot, don\'t say."

Chechen and yelishei spoke at the same time to stop fedot from going on.

But at this time, the honest man fedot, who was angered by the appearance of old yelisi, ignored these and told all about how yelisi was captured in Polotsk and how Yakov forced yelisi to commit suicide in the name of war death.

"Is this, is this all true? No, you must be lying to me!"

After hearing fedot\'s words, old yelishei trembled with shock. He staggered and took two steps back, almost tripping over the chair behind him. Then he couldn\'t believe it and accused fedot of lying to him.

"Why should I lie to you?"

Fedot resented old elishey\'s self righteous Aristocracy: "nayakov also submitted the list of nobles and officers killed in battle to Moscow. In czar Russia, your son is dead."

"It\'s impossible. I\'ve never received any notice of death in battle." old yelishei shouted. He grabbed his hair again: "you lie to me, you lie to me! I\'m going to Moscow, to Moscow for confirmation."

"Father!"

At this time, yelishei took a step forward. He knelt down on one knee, looked at his father and said: "What fedott said is true. I can swear in the name of God. Father, I should have been dead, but commander Cherchen took me in. The reason why I and the commander haven\'t told this matter is that we are afraid you will go to Moscow. General Yakov cherkaski has great military power and ruthlessness. If he knows that you are investigating this matter, he will certainly punish you Unfavorable. "

At this time, old yelishei could no longer support himself and sank into a chair.

Nothing makes a patriot more desperate than this - old Yeltsin sent his three sons to the front line to fight for the country and the Czar, but the Czar\'s Russian general abandoned his son as if he had abandoned his shoes. This is the reward for the Yeltsin family\'s loyalty to the country, which old Yeltsin can\'t think of.

The so-called sorrow is greater than heart death. Old yelishei\'s energy and spirit collapsed in an instant.

"I don\'t believe it, I don\'t believe it." old yelishei\'s mouth kept talking unconsciously. He didn\'t want to believe it, let alone believe it.
