The Last Frontier of Fire and Sword

Does Bogdan Khmelnitsky's statement make sense? Of course it makes sense. At least Bao Hong knew himself very well. If Wigowski became a warchief, he would be dissatisfied. I believe Shirko will do the same.

Bogdan Khmelnitsky stopped and gave himself a breath, and he said: "So in order not to cause civil strife, I decided to let Yuri inherit the position of warchief after careful consideration. Of course, he can't have it. I have an authority like me, so the four of you will assist him together, and all the affairs of the Cossack emirate will be signed after consultation by the four of you. In this way, the Cossack emirate guarantees that there will be no civil strife, and your power has not decreased, but increased. NS."

At Bao Hong's side, Shirko saw Bao Hong showing a pensive expression, as if he had been moved by Bogdan Khmelnitsky, and he thought about it in secret.

Seeing both Bao Hong and Shirko being moved by himself, Bogdan Khmelnitsky, who was almost exhausted, showed an imperceptible smile on his face.

Bao Hong and Hilke entered their urn.

Vigowski, who had been watching quietly, couldn't help sighing when he saw Bogdan Khmelnitsky's smile.

As a clerk, and the person who has the most contact with Bogdan Khmelnitsky in political affairs, Vygowski knows exactly what Bogdan Khmelnitsky just said. It's just or mostly his excuses. He had only one purpose for giving the black rod to his son, and that was to pass on the position of the warchief from generation to generation in his own blood.

Bogdan Khmelnitsky is not a saint, he has his own selfish mind. Especially in his later years, Bogdan Khmelnitsky became more and more planning for his son.

In fact, this idea of ​​father and son succeeding has already begun.

Soon after the "Zporov Agreement" signed the armistice, Bogdan Khmelnitsky joined forces with the Tatars to conquer Moldavia, which was in trouble between the Republic of Poland and himself. After the successful conquest, Bogdan Khmelnitsky let his eldest son marry the only daughter of the Grand Duke of Moldavia, and the two regimes formed an alliance. At the same time, Bogdan Khmelnitsky coerced the Grand Duke of Moldavia to promise that his eldest son would inherit the title of the Grand Duke after his death.

Vigowski clearly remembered that he was the one involved in the Moldavia bus.

But things backfired. Only three years later, Bogdan Khmelnitsky's son was killed there. And Moldavia fell to Poland.

After an unsuccessful attempt, Bogdan Khmelnytskyi wanted his only son to inherit his current position.

But when he came up with this idea, Bogdan Khmelnitsky at this time no longer had the ability to intimidate the Grand Duke of Moldavia.

He was inevitably old and was seen by everyone.

If Bogdan Khmelnitsky at the time of the uprising was a fierce tiger who could scare others to tremble with his eyes, then he is now just an aging sick cat, one weak enough to catch mice. The sick cat can't live anymore.

Tigers can overwhelm beasts, but cats cannot. Bogdan Khmelnitsky could only persuade him with word-of-mouth, persuade himself to subordinate three high-powered giants, and transfer part of his power.

Of course, these surrendered powers will be taken back by Yuri when he becomes an adult in the future.

Old Hemei certainly has this confidence, because time will be Yuri's best weapon.

Whether it is Baohong, Popovich, himself or Shirko, everyone is in prime of life. Shirko, the eldest, is forty or seven, and Yuri is only fifteen years old. In this era, people over fifty can be regarded as old men, and most Cossacks do not even live to be forty years old. When Yuri became an adult, he was already very old, and Shirko had even gone to see God.

"Vigowski, my clerk. What do you think?"

Just as Vigowski was thinking this way, Bogdan Khmelnitsky asked him suddenly.

Bogdan Khmelnitsky was obviously confident that he would speak for him.

"Of course he would think." Wigowski thought: "Even if his hope of becoming a warchief was dashed, Bogdan Khmelnitsky didn't treat himself badly. He not only summoned himself alone, He also promised that after Yuri succeeds, he will still serve as Yuri's clerk."

But Vigowski was unwilling to follow the path that Bogdan Khmelnitsky had arranged for him. He is a man of political ambition. Once he served Bogdan Khmelnitsky, half because he had saved himself, and half because he had the same aspirations to save Ukraine.

But now, Bogdan Khmelnitsky clearly deviated from this track. He was nepotism, and even disregarding the fact that the Cossack emirate was surrounded by Poland, Tsarist Russia, and the Crimean Khanate, he still insisted on forming an alliance with the distant Kingdom of Sweden, which had been declining during the war-only because of the support of Karl X. inside.

Different road non-phase plan.

"Yes," Vygowski turned to Bogdan Khmelnitsky and whispered softly: "The great chief's foresight is indeed beyond my ability."

Bogdan Khmelnitsky nodded, obviously he was extremely satisfied with Vigowski's answer.

But at this moment, Vygowski said something unexpected for Bogdan Khmelnitsky.

"But the great chieftain, the four-person assistants, after all, are not in line with the Cossack tradition."

Although the words are vague, the meaning is unmistakable. Vigowski opposed Bogdan Khmelnitsky's move to pass the position.

Bogdan Khmelnitsky stared at Vygowski, feeling his chest slammed with a heavy blow. Bogdan Khmelnitsky, who was consciously breathless, looked up at Vygowski with difficulty.

The latter's face was calm.

"traitor!"

Bogdan Khmelnitsky never thought that the clerk, Vygowski, had served him for so long, and he would betray him at the last minute.

"why!"

Bogdan Khmelnitsky felt frustrated, and he felt more and more out of breath.

"I am for the future of the Cossacks." Vigowski said to Bogdan Khmelnitsky in his heart.

Aside, Khmelnitsky's son Yuri suddenly made a move to add fuel to the fire. He said to Bogdan Khmelnitsky: "Father, I don't want so many people to assist me. Uncle Popovich and Uncle Vigowski are enough."

After all, Yuri was young, and he didn't realize that Wigowski was denying his succession, and thought that his father's clerk was afraid that he would be emptied in the future.

Bogdan Khmelnitsky's face turned purple~www.wuxiaspot.com~ his stupid son!

"Don't talk!" Bogdan Khmelnitsky gave Yuri a vicious look.

Immediately, he turned his gaze to Vygowski again.

"My clerk, I have decided." Bogdan Khmelnitsky said.

"Yes."

Vigowski replied.

While speaking, Wigowski moved in the direction of Baohong and Shirko.

At this time, the three of them stood on a line.

This means it is obvious.

Wigowski used actions to show his break with Bogdan Khmelnitsky.

"I also ask the warchief to respect the traditions of the Cossacks." Baohong and Shirko, who were awakened by Yuri's stupidity, said in unison.

Bogdan Khmelnitsky couldn't hold on anymore. He slammed his chest with his fist, but the blocking feeling did not ease at all.

"Father!"

When Yuri saw this, he was terrified. He sat on the edge of the bed and stroked Bogdan Khmelnitsky's back vigorously.

Popovich also hurriedly took a spittoon and handed it to Bogdan Khmelnitsky.

Bogdan Khmelnitsky pushed away the spittoon, and he said to Popovich: "Popovic, you go, you go and talk to people outside, just say Yuri Khmelnitz Ki is the great chief of the next Cossack emirate."

At this time, Bogdan Khmelnitsky had ignored him.

"Yes, Warchief." Popovich replied.

He was just about to be ordered out. At this moment, Bogdan Khmelnitsky let out a "uh", he seemed to be strangling his throat, and then Old Hemei's head lifted up and his eyes seemed to protrude from the socket. He stretched his hand to the ceiling, struggling like a fish leaving the water.
