Che Chen and Bao Hong drank one cup at a time and got very drunk. In the end, Chechen didn\'t know whether Bao Hong sent him or returned to the embassy.

The next morning, when Chechen woke up from his sleep, it was daybreak. He was still full of wine and his head was dizzy.

Che Chen shook his head and knocked with his fist. He felt better.

"Are you awake? Chechen."

A voice came from the door. Chechen fixed his eyes and saw that Henrik was standing at the door.

"Sorry, I drank too much yesterday. Henrik, is it the old man who wants to see me?" Chechen got up from bed and asked.

"It was, but not now."

"Why?"

Henrik pointed his head in the direction of the window.

"You can see for yourself."

Chechen went to the window. He opened the curtain and looked out.

Outside the gate of the embassy stood a group of Cossack soldiers in dark uniforms. They walked around in front of the gate with loaded guns.

Chechen looked at both sides again. He saw a team of Cossacks standing in front of the Russian Embassy, but not at the door of the Swedish Embassy.

"Are they Bogdan Popovich\'s people?" Chechen asked.

"Yes," Henrik said as he walked to the window.

"Today, my uncle was going to visit vikovsky, the Registrar of the Cossacks. Before he went out, he saw the Cossacks blocking the door. I sent someone to ask. They said they were ordered by Popovich to protect the safety of the embassy personnel."

Chechen realized that they were under surveillance and house arrest.

"I\'ll go out and have a look."

Che Chen said, put on his clothes and walked outside the door.

At the gate, Chechen asked a Cossack soldier, "who is your head?"

A Cossack with a thick beard came over.

"I am," he said.

Chechen showed his identity. He asked, "I wonder why we don\'t let our people out?"

The Cossack captain looked at Cherchen\'s half-aged child and smiled contemptuously. He asked, "who are you?"

"I\'m the guard captain of the mission." Chechen said positively. Then he added, "he is also a good friend of your Cossack regiment leader Bao Hong."

Perhaps the latter sentence of Cherchen worked, and the Cossack captain\'s face was more solemn. He said, "well, for the sake of being a good friend of the captain of Baohong regiment, I tell you - my chief Colonel Bogdan Popovich is worried that someone will make trouble in Kiev while the chief dies, so he sent us to protect your safety. You know, poles are always unhappy in Ukraine."

With that, everyone laughed.

Before they finished laughing, Chechen asked the officer again, "so Colonel Popovich just asked you to protect our safety, not to let you not let our people out?"

"That\'s not true. But what the Colonel means is that it\'s not peaceful outside. You\'d better not go out," the Cossack captain said cautiously.

"That\'s good." Chechen clapped his hands. "Let me ask again, does Colonel Popovich send you to protect the security of the embassy or people?" Chechen asked.

The Cossack captain was stunned when he heard the speech. He blurted out: "is there a difference?"

"Of course," said Chechen cunningly, "if you are protecting the security of the embassy, you are protecting the house; if you are protecting people, you should protect our security when we go out."

The captain thought for a moment. He understood that Colonel Popovich meant to "protect" people.

"Protecting people, of course," he said.

"Well, Lord Stanislaw pototsky, the envoy of our mission, is going out now. Please spare your hands to protect us."

"Where are you going?"

"Baohong regiment captain\'s residence." Chechen said without looking back.

Then, Chechen returned to the embassy. He came to the room of old lord Stanislaw pototsky and told him his conversation with the Cossack captain outside.

Seeing that Chechen even went wrong, Henrik shouted, "God, are you still drunk? We\'re going to vigovsky, not to find Bao Hong!"

"Of course I know. It\'s a trick I played."

Hearing what Chechen said, Henrik calmed down. He was about to ask Chechen again, but Chechen first said to Stanislaw pototsky, "old pototsky, let\'s get in the car first. You\'ll know then."

The old man looked at Chechen with confidence and stood up and walked towards the door.

When the three came to the carriage, Cherchen looked left and right, but he didn\'t see Duke konitsky.

"The Duke is more drunk than you," Stanislaw pototsky said, knowing what Chechen was looking for.

As soon as five Hessian cavalry escorted the carriage out of the gate, the Cossacks surrounded the outside of the carriage. They left two to watch the door, and the others followed.

Chechen saw that the Cossack captain whispered to one of them, and then the man ran away.

Obviously, he went to inform Bogdan Popovich.

With the "protection" of the Cossacks, Chechen didn\'t even need to ask for directions, so they were taken directly to Bao Hong\'s residence.

At this time, there was a roar in front of Bao Hong\'s residence, and hundreds of Cossacks gathered at the door. These Cossacks were well-equipped and looked like troops at the guard level. Because so many people blocked the road, the mission\'s carriage could not enter. So Chechen jumped out of the carriage and went in alone.

The Cossack captain who was responsible for "protecting" them quickly followed. He was afraid that Che Chen would slip out of his sight.

"I\'m Bao Hong\'s friend, let me in!" Chechen shouted.

Blair happened to be at the door at this time. He heard Cherchen\'s voice and hurried out.

"Blair, is brother Bao Hong awake?" Chechen asked.

Blair told Cherchen that Bao Hong had been asleep since he got drunk that night.

Chechen shook his head with some regret. Then he whispered to Blair that Popovich sent people to follow him and restricted his freedom.

Blair\'s face turned cold. Just then, the Cossack captain also squeezed in.

Blair walked up to the Cossack captain and, without saying a word, grabbed his head and hit a nearby tree.

"Asshole! Asshole! Who gave you this guts? Even Bao Hong\'s friends dare to follow!"

The Cossack captain\'s eyes were full of stars, but he did not dare to struggle and fight back because he was afraid of Blair\'s prestige.

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding! Colonel Popovich sent us to protect the Polish mission."

"The people of the Czar Russian mission, but they don\'t protect the people of the Swedish mission." Chechen inserted a sentence nearby.

Blair was even more angry. He grabbed a lock of hair on each other\'s head and shouted, "get back to me, dog! I know what your master wants to protect!"

With that, Blair pointed to Chechen again.

"This alvar Chechen is Bao Hong\'s good brother. If you dare to follow him again, I\'ll cure you. You\'re called father and mother."

With that, Blair waved fiercely and threw the captain into the mud.

The people around burst out laughing. Obviously, they were gloating at seeing Popovich\'s people beaten.

The poor captain got up in a panic and fled with his men.

The man who chased Popovich away, Blair put his arms around Cherchen\'s shoulder and walked aside. He said to Cherchen: "Popovich is crazy now. Last night, he went to find Anton zhdanovich and asked him to hand over the military power of Kiev to him. The reason is that he was the person who was appointed by Bogdan hemelinitsky to assist the government. Fortunately, Anton is Bao Hong\'s good friend and he resolutely refused this request. Otherwise, let Popovich control the army in Kiev, I\'m afraid he would dare to give all those who oppose him Looks like. "

Chechen did not expect that Colonel Popovich would make such a big noise less than a day after Bogdan hemelinitsky\'s death.

He looked again at the elite Cossacks around him and had a vague guess: "what about these people, are they?"

Blair confirmed Cherchen\'s guess. He nodded: "These are the personal soldiers under the captains of the regiments who left with Bao Hong and hilko last night. These team leaders came to discuss countermeasures with Bao Hong. When Popovich made this accident, everyone felt a crisis. They were worried that when they woke up, their house would be surrounded and their wives and children would be different. Everyone didn\'t want Popovich to continue like this."

Cherchen was a little afraid of Blair\'s saying that "he didn\'t want Popovich to continue like this", because it might mean bloodshed and death. But he knew that Blair was a typical Cossack with a forthright character and straight speech. Blair\'s words would never be aimless.

"So do the team leaders want to start with Popovich?" Chechen asked hurriedly.

Blair stood up.

"I don\'t know. But zolotalenko is coming, Anton is coming... Hilko is also coming. Everyone wants to see my master. They are still waiting in the living room. Anyway, I hope Bao Hong can make a decision. Hey, Bogdan has just died. I didn\'t expect the situation to become like this right away." Blair sighed.

Some of the names Blair said were known by Cherchen, and some didn\'t. however, the names of Vasili zolotalenko and Ivan hilko were like thunder, and being able to stand side by side with them was obviously a very important figure in the Kazakh Emirates. Cherchen was also surprised that they all wanted Bao Hong to lead them.

Suddenly, a loud roar came from the room: "anyway, I won\'t wait to die. If you\'re afraid, let me do it."

"Lukiyan mezira is a supporter of hilko," Blair said.

Che Chen remembered what Bao Hong said last night that he would unite with the company commanders who maintained the Cossack tradition to oppose the motion of Yuri hemelinitsky\'s succession to the throne and elect the real chief of Cossacks.

Yesterday\'s words are still in my ears. I didn\'t expect to cash them today.

At this time, Henrik pototsky in the carriage grabbed the lamp stand on the side of the carriage and straightened up and shouted Chechen to go quickly. Obviously, after the Cossacks were scared away by Blair, Stanislaw pototsky hurried to wigowski.

"Uncle hilko, if brother Bao Hong really wants to fight with Popovich, you must be careful. If you need manpower, the Hessian cavalry in my hand will listen to him at any time." Chechen told Blair.

At this time, Cherchen didn\'t think about whether it was appropriate for him to be involved in the matter as a member of the Polish mission.

After Chechen returned to the carriage, the carriage turned to. In the car, Stanislaw pototsky asked Cherchen what he had been talking about with Blair for so long. Cherchen deliberately picked only part of the facts to tell Stanislaw pototsky.

Stanislaw pototsky closed his eyes after listening. Not long after, the old man sighed. He did not expect that upon the death of Bogdan hemelinitsky, the Cossacks were immediately split to such a degree that it seemed as if civil war was about to break out.

At this time, Stanislaw pototsky thought: "is Ukraine in the civil war more beneficial to the Republic?"

But immediately Stanislaw pototsky gave up the idea. After all, although the civil war Cossack emirate can temporarily relieve the crisis in the eastern border of the Republic, it does nothing to enhance the strength of the Republic. Whether Popovich, Baohong or hilko wins, it is also a disaster for the Republic.

When he was about to arrive at vikovsky\'s residence, Stanislaw pototsky gave Cherchen a stack of information about vikovsky and asked Cherchen to have a good look. The old man asked Cherchen to accompany him when he met with vikovsky.

Chechen was a little surprised. Shouldn\'t the old man take his nephew Henrik to see vigovsky?

"You and Henrik are with me," the old man said faintly.

Duke konitsky\'s poor performance and Cherchen\'s wit today have once again biased Stanislaw pototsky\'s inner balance towards him.

Chechen lowered his head. He began to read the information about Ivan vigovsky given by the old man.

Statistics show that Ivan vikovski was a Ukrainian aristocrat in Kiev in his early years. He knew many languages and had outstanding literary talent, but he was unsuccessful and only worked as a small official. After being captured by Bogdan hemelinitsky, Bogdan hemelinitsky appreciated his talent, not only saved his life, but also made an exception to let him be his own attendant. After that, vigovsky served as the Secretary of zaporoze Cossack for a long time and was one of khmelinitsky\'s most trusted advisers. Moreover, in the war against the Republic of Poland, vikovsky always advocated treating the captured nobles well, which can be regarded as a rare Pro Polish faction in Cossacks.

From these words alone, Lian Chechen can judge that Ivan wigovsky is worthy of the Republic\'s solicitation.

At about 14 p.m., the carriage arrived at vigovsky\'s house. The three got off the carriage and prepared to meet with vigovsky.
