The Last Frontier of Fire and Sword

Stanislaw Potocki’s words were spurred into. Although King Jan Kazimierz was unwilling, he had to admit in his heart that Stanislaw was indeed the best candidate for Ukraine.

After considering the meeting again, King Jan Kazimierz made up his mind, and he no longer hesitated.

The king took Stanislaw Potocky's thin hand: "Stannislaw, for the Republic."

Seeing that the king finally agreed to his request for an envoy, Stanislaw Potocki smiled contentedly: "For the Republic."

After that, the two discussed some of the personnel arrangements for the mission and the conditions that the Republic can give to negotiate a peace.

Everything else went smoothly, but King Jan Kazimierz and Stanislaw Potocki had a disagreement on the selection of guards for the mission.

The first candidate proposed by King Jan Kazimierz for the deputy envoy and captain of the guard was Jan Sobieski, but Stanislaw Potocki said that Jan Sobieski was inappropriate.

Stanisław Potocki’s objection was not because Jan Sobieski also had a history of opposing the king—Jan Sobieski had proved his loyalty to the king with bravery. It was because Stanislaw Potocki worried that the **** feud between Jan Sobieski and Bogdan Khmelnitsky would make him lose his mind.

In the Battle of Batom in June 1652, Bogdan Khmelnitsky led a sudden attack of fifty thousand Cossack-Tatar coalition forces. They surrounded 12,000 Polish defenders in Batom’s In one camp, although the Polish defenders resisted desperately, when there was no external reinforcements and the enemy had an absolute advantage in force, their struggle was nothing more than a battle between trapped beasts, and they were quickly defeated.

After the battle, Bogdan Khmelnitsky issued a slaughter order and slaughtered all the prisoners. This includes the commander-in-chief Marcin Kalinovsky himself (his head was later pierced on a touring exhibition), as well as Marko Sobieski, the brother of Jan Sobieski.

After Stanislaw Potocki raised his concerns, King Jan Kazimierz also became cautious. Although the king wanted to make new contributions to Jan Sobieski with this mission, if Jan Sobieski was really likely to sabotage the peace talks, the king would never use it.

After that, Mihav, Andrzej and even Jerzy Khaletski and others were selected for their personal selection, but either they were far away in Lithuania and could not come, or because it was Lvbao Macki. The king is unwilling to give him a chance to perform meritorious service.

"Isn't there a suitable candidate?"

King Jan Kazimierz sighed unconsciously. He walked slowly to the window and opened it.

A cool breeze blew.

At this time, the city of Warsaw was already dim. Even in the Kazimierz Palace, there are only sporadic rooms with lights on in the main building and side halls, where the servants live in the guest rooms and the palace. Most of the servants who had been busy all day returned to their rooms at this time, all preparing to wash and rest.

When King Jan Kazimierz saw a figure in one of the lighted windows, the king's eyes lit up.

"I thought of a suitable candidate. God, why did I forget him!"

King Jan Kazimierz walked quickly to Stanisław Potocki, and drew the old man to the window.

"Look! This candidate is absolutely suitable." King Jan Kazimierz pointed to the diagonally opposite window.

Stanislaw Potocki looked in the direction of the king's fingers, and Chechen and Natalie were in the window.

"What do you think? I send Alvar Chechen to protect you." King Jan Kazimierz said triumphantly.

Cheerchen is undoubtedly suitable. There is no personal grievance between him and the Cossacks of Zaporozhye, and his mercenary regiment is strong, protected by him and his people, small mobs and Cossack bandits cannot threaten the safety of the mission at all.

But Stanislaw Potocki shook his head anyway.

"Your Majesty, Cheer Chen is with Natalie. They two have just reconciled as before, how can we bear to let them separate."

Stanislaw Potocki took into account the Natalie who treated him like a daughter, so he didn't want Cheerchen to leave.

But the more King Kazimierz thought about it, the more he felt Cheerchen was a suitable candidate. He said: "No need to worry about this. You are not going to leave right away. They still have time to spend time together with boys and girls. Besides, Natalie is a sensible girl. She knows housework and state affairs, which is more important. of."

Seeing that King Jan Kazimierz was so determined, Stanislaw Potocki had no choice but to agree.

After that, Stanislaw Potocki left the king. And King Jan Kazimierz also returned to his and the queen's bedroom.

The lights in the bedroom were dim. Sitting at the door was a young palace lady with freckles on her face. The lady put her hand on her head and was sleeping.

"It seems that the queen is asleep." King Jan Kazimierz thought to himself.

He walked gently towards the door, then twisted the lock.

The sound of the door lock turning awakened the maid. Seeing that it was the king, the maid almost cried out in surprise.

"Shhh!"

King Jan Kazimierz just made a gesture~www.wuxiaspot.com~ he was afraid of waking the queen.

This palace lady was also clever, and immediately covered her mouth with her hand.

Jan Kazimierz smiled satisfiedly at the court lady, and then entered the room. He quietly sat down on his own end of the bed, and then began to take off his shoes.

Suddenly, Jan Kazimierz's midfielder was slammed. This force was so great that Jan Kazimierz was caught off guard, and he fell from the edge of the bed to the floor.

The table lamp on the bedside table was on, and King Jan Kazimierz saw his wife, Queen Ludvika, looking at him angrily in her pajamas.

"Queen, I'm late. You haven't slept yet?" King Jan Kazimierz said with a guilty conscience.

With a frosty face on Queen Ludvika's face, she asked her husband what was going to be hiding from herself at the dinner party.

Jan Kazimierz glanced cautiously at the door. Fortunately, the door is closed.

"It's actually not a big deal."

Jan Kazimierz smiled and prepared to stand up from the ground. He just stood halfway, Queen Ludvika glared at him and said, "Did I ask you to stand up?"

The king looked embarrassed. At this time, Jan Kazimierd has long lost the impassionedness when he said that he was looking for the dignity of a man.
