The Last Frontier of Fire and Sword

Chapter 706



Not knowing that his little trick had been seen through by vikovsky, Cherchen called all the officers of the mercenary regiment after vikovsky left.

"Gentlemen, there is no fairness and justice in the Republic, nor here. I meant that wigowski could avenge uncle Blair, but he and Pavlo tetria had colluded for a long time."

Hearing the news, everyone looked at each other in disbelief.

Chechen added: "vikovski even wants me to make things small and small, and give him the assassin."

As soon as Cherchen\'s voice fell, yelishei stood up.

He objected: "commander, absolutely not. This is against the knight\'s norms and morality."

Yelishei opened his head, and other officers shouted one after another.

Chechen made a quiet gesture. He nodded and said, "yes, it\'s really against chivalry and morality. So I refused him. And I\'m going to take the assassin to Bratslav personally. I\'m going to expose Pavlo tetria\'s true face."

"Captain, I\'ll follow you!" yelishei shouted first.

Chechen\'s eyes swept from everyone.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it will be a dangerous journey to brazlav. Because we don\'t know how many people and strength Pavlo tetria gathered after brother Baohong\'s death. Maybe as long as I launch the assassin to testify against Pavlo tetria, the Cossacks will support me and fight against Pavlo tetria; or they will be indifferent and draw a knife at us Yes. It\'s all unpredictable. "

"We are not afraid, commander."

This time, Xie Miao was shouting.

Chechen\'s eyes floated to Fatima and saw that she also looked at herself with trust and support.

Chechen immediately felt his pride doubled. He ordered yelisi, "yelisi, go and gather everyone, our people."

Yelishei knows. He walked out of the tent. Soon a hundred and fifty Hessian cavalry were assembled.

Chechen dressed neatly with the help of Fatima. He had black armor and a saber hanging from his waist.

Fatima wore a small metal plate chain armour and a Tatar helmet.

Out of the tent, Che Chen looked at his subordinates and whispered to himself, "Alas, I\'m still too confident. If it brings 500 people, it would be good. There are not too many people to do big things, especially such big things. There are too few hands and too few people."

Coe then shut up. Then Chechen asked in the loudest voice, "are you all ready to die?"

In a moment of hesitation, all the Hessian cavalry shouted, "all ready."

Since these Hessian people came out to be mercenaries, they ate the food of licking blood at the edge of the knife. They have long underestimated life and death.

What\'s more, they are still a generous and generous owner.

"Good!" Chechen praised, "each of you will be rewarded with a hundred tales."

"Thank you, Captain!"

"Tomorrow we\'re going to Bratslav. We\'re going to do a big thing. If we succeed, there will be a bright future and future waiting for you... I promise! But if we fail, you have only one way to die. Would you like to go with me!"

"We will!" yelishei and other officers shouted.

Under the leadership of officers, under the stimulation of money and the temptation of a bright future, the soldiers were excited and each was willing to die.

Soon, the temporary camp of the mercenary regiment was cleared. A hundred and fifty cavalry, led by Chechen, advanced in the direction of Bratslav.

Brazlav, located in the southwest of Ukraine, is an important town of Ukraine. Since the establishment of the Cossack emirate, it has twice resisted the invasion of the invaders. The first was in the autumn of 1654, when the Crimean Khan Muhammad gley, who became an ally of the Republic of Poland again, invaded the Bratslav region of Ukraine. Local people rely on their own strength to fight against the invading enemy. They would rather die than fall into the enemy\'s hands. The Ukrainian people suffered numerous deaths and injuries, and the struggle was tragic and tragic.

The second was in 1655. At that time, the army of the Republic of Poland, led by King Jan kazimiz, went straight to blazlav City, where Bao Hong led his Cossacks to fight life and death with the famous generals of the Republic such as Stefan charnietsky.

Although Bogdan hemelinitsky led a large army to lift the siege, the victorious Cossacks still had to set fire to Bratslav city and evacuate the battlefield.

After that, due to the Swedish invasion of Poland, the Cossacks returned to brazlav and rebuilt it.

When Chechen and his party arrived at Bratslav after a ten day long journey, they saw the rebuilt castle.

The newly-built Bratslav city highlights its military role. Its walls are wide at the bottom and narrow at the bottom, and above them are wooden fortifications and ceilings; Turrets were also built at the four corners of the city wall, and the artillery position was open at an angle of 60 degrees, with almost no four corners; A wide moat surrounds the city. There are suspension bridges at the four gates. As long as the suspension bridge is erected, no one can get in and out of the gate.

The Cossack sentinels guarding on the city wall saw a team of cavalry in black clothes and armor suddenly appear under the city, and they guarded one after another. But when they learned that it was Bao Hong\'s good friend Che Chen, the former regiment leader, who came to pay tribute to Bao Hong, they put down their guns one by one.

"Just a moment, please. I\'ll inform the elder." a Cossack captain shouted.

Then he hurried down the tower.

As the position of regiment leader was temporarily vacant, Bratslav\'s military and political power was temporarily controlled by the "Brotherhood". The members of these "brotherhoods" are Bao Hong\'s League brothers and officers in the team.

These include company commander nezamaynov, captain of the Kanev branch, company commander steboriv, company commander dimosev, company commander lehimi, company commander jamid Popovich and company commander Balaban.

Of course, there is Pavlo tetria, Bratslav\'s metrologist and a popular candidate for the next regiment captain.

At this time, these people were gathered in the city\'s Orthodox Church to discuss the election of the next team leader candidate.

The sponsor of the conference was, of course, Pavlo tetria. The man was short in stature and ugly. He had a shrewd mind, observant eyes and a tongue as sweet as honey.

Although Blair asked the League brothers to hold elections after he returned from vidava when he left Bratslav, the "Brotherhood" also agreed. But as soon as the distance is far away, the feeling fades. Most of the elders of the "Brotherhood" could not stand Pavlo tetria\'s repeated gifts and wishes, and agreed to hold the meeting without Blair returning.

There is also a reason why Pavlo tetria is so impatient - that is, the assassin he sent has not returned.

According to the original plan, after the assassin assassinated Blair, he would come back immediately, whether successful or not. But after such a long time, there was no news from the people he sent, which made Pavlo tetria\'s heart anxious and bumpy.

That\'s why he decided not to wait any longer, but to hold an election immediately and let himself be the captain of Bratslav\'s regiment.

In this way, even if the assassin loses his hand and Blair returns safely, he can only do nothing.

Pavlo tetria paid for it. He took out the gold coins, silver spoons, gold plates and other booty buried by his private soldiers in the forest and reed fields for many years and gave them to the company commanders to get their support.

Even more just in case, he even replaced the Cossack guard responsible for protecting the conference today with his own.

"Everybody," Pavlo tetria went to the altar of the church. He bowed to the company commanders and said humbly, "as a backward Cossack, my qualifications and experience are not comparable to those of you here, so let me start today\'s meeting."

The white haired company commander steboriv, the Cossack old man who received a bag of gold coins and two gold plates, knocked on the chair with a cigarette pole. He said, "Pavlo, don\'t be modest, just talk."

Commander steborif\'s words emboldened and supported Pavlo tetria. So he said loudly, "everybody, the so-called people don\'t go without a head and birds don\'t fly without a head. Our beloved Baohong regiment captain has been dead for more than two months, but we haven\'t elected a new regiment captain until now, which makes the brothers in the team panic, and some other Cossack teams are also eyeing us..."

Pavlo tetria said this and was suddenly interrupted by a drink.

"Who is it? Who dares to covet our Bratslav team? I\'ll kill him!"

The speaker was company commander Jamie Popovich, who was known for his recklessness and mindlessness.

Pavlo tetria smiled at Jamie and made a sign of calmness. He explained, "commander Jamie, I don\'t mean anyone specifically, but it\'s possible."

Then Pavlo tetria paused. He quickly looked around and saw that the supporters he had bought gave him support. Pavlo tetria said, "so I suggest that a new regiment leader be elected today."

Blair\'s supporters were unwilling. They said that since the "Brotherhood" promised to wait for Blair to return before leaving, it should abide by the oath.

"Cossacks never break promises and vows," they shouted.

Pavlo tetria is certainly prepared to say something about this. But just as he was about to take out his words to persuade the opponents, the Cossack captain came in and announced the arrival of Cherchen.

"He said he came to pay tribute to the leader of Baohong regiment," said the informant.

Chechen\'s arrival caught Pavlo tetria by surprise. His first reaction was that the assassin missed.

"How many people did he bring? Did he come back with Blair?" Pavlo tetria blurted out.

Seeing the metrological officer asking two questions in a row, the informer was a little overwhelmed, but he immediately responded and replied, "there are more than 100 people. But I didn\'t see sir Blair."

Pavlo tetria was relieved to hear that there were only such people in Cherchen and that Blair was not among them.

In terms of the number of people, this time he arranged four or five hundred Cossacks around the church, four or five times that of the other party.

"Maybe Blair is dead," he thought.

At this time, commander dimosev asked, "Tyria, what do you mean by asking how many people he brought and whether Blair came back together?"

"It\'s not interesting," Pavlo tetria said easily: "We all know that alvar Chechen is a good friend of the captain of Baohong regiment, but he is not our Cossack\'s brother after all. If an outsider appears in Bratslav, of course I want to ask; as for my second question, we all know that Blair took Baohong\'s children to vidava, and as far as I know, alvar Chechen is the Lord of vidava."

After explaining to captain dimosev, Pavlo tetria ordered the informer, "what are you doing? Put down the suspension bridge and open the gate to let them in."
