The calm of Novgorod was completely shattered, and all the inhabitants were horrified to find that they had to face the threat of war themselves, but they had not been involved in the invasion of the Teutonic Knights, and now they were forcibly conscripted. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

They complained, they were even more dismissive of the aristocracy, and some people were already nostalgic for Alexander's reign, even if there were fewer dispensable rights, at least there was no such crazy thing as all the people being soldiers!

All of a sudden, they had a lot of resentment towards the newly inaugurated Grand Duke.

"If you continue like this, I'm afraid that Novgorod will not be destroyed by external threats, and I am afraid that it will collapse because of its own internal strife." General Kurak stood on the lighthouse and said to Constance Dante, who was beside him.

The place is quiet and secluded, and it is also to talk to them.

"These citizens simply can't afford to hold guns, and it's unrealistic to expect them." Constantine's remark made General Kurak even more puzzled.

"Then why do you want to?"

"Because I don't understand what Alexander had in mind." Constantine's eyes were deep, he actually couldn't understand what Bashiers's intentions were, the teenager who was bent on pushing himself to the pinnacle of power was terrified in Constantine's eyes, what they wanted to do was not as simple as destroying Novgorod. Of course, the Swedes, who were used as knives this time, thought that they wanted to completely destroy Novgorod.

"So what's the plan? It's useless to rely on these people. General Kurak asked, again not understanding what the young man in front of him was trying to do. In this situation, he also felt that Novgorod was completely hopeless.

"These citizen soldiers are only to maintain law and order in Novgorod, although I am not sure, but I have a hunch that the only way to open the situation is to eliminate the Swedes." Cons-Dante believed that the Swedes' impulsion was no accident.

"I hope so! So you want to harness our power? ”

"Yes," Constance Dante nodded. "I don't think Her Majesty Yadwija should have any intention of refusing, after all, the safety of Her Royal Highness Princess Bonifazia is also of paramount importance."

"That's true, but are you really sure?"

"Half, it's a fair gamble, and one can only hope for good luck in the stars." Constance Dante replied calmly, but it was this performance that made General Kurak nod.

"Then, all my subordinates will be at the disposal of His Excellency the Grand Duke." General Kullak respectfully saluted Consdain.

"And what do you want to say to me when you're here?" Consitant Dante asked, believing that General Kurak had not brought him to this place just to ask these questions, otherwise there would be no need to be so secretive.

"I hope that you, as the godfather of Her Royal Highness the Princess, will protect her. Because now the situation in Poland is far worse than thought. Bernia was not suffering from a stubborn disease, but was poisoned. "Kurak's eyes burst out with a stinging eyeball, and even Cons Dante was slightly frightened, even the heir of the country dared to murder him?

"Who is it?"

"・・・・・・" General Kulak was silent.

"Is it Nedesia?" Constance Dante reacted immediately and guessed. He remembered what Kurak had told him to beware of the Nedesia and the Lithuanians, and that at that meeting Consdante remembered that the old man had brought him with his heavily armed men.

General Kurak admitted: "Well, it was also my negligence that they killed people after I found out, and when I went to arrest Nedesia, they were long gone. Although they claimed to have returned to Poland, my intelligence from Poland showed that they had never been in contact at all. This means ・・・・・・"

"They're still moving." Constance Dante said leisurely. I really thought that even if Poland and Lithuania were united as one country, they would still have evil intentions after all, so that family affection and loyalty would be discarded.

"That's right, and when we went out to meet Sweden, Princess Bonifazia was the most dangerous, and now Her Royal Highness Yadwidya is ready to leave Novgorod, but I haven't told her the news."

"So what do you want me to do?" Constance Dante knew that there were deals, and he couldn't make Kurak pay for nothing.

"Will you be able to protect Bonifazia's safety?" General Kulak asked.

"Yes, as long as you give me [Nidhogg]." Constance Dante calmly agreed to the other party's request.

"You're not afraid of being backlashed?"

"That's better than waiting to die, isn't it?" After listening to Kulak's information, he was 100% sure that those Lithuanians would definitely take the opportunity to raid, not just Bonifazia, but the whole of Novgorod would fall into ruin, because Nedesia could completely blame the Muscovites on the matter, and this meant that it was absolutely not enough to kill Bonifagia.

"Okay then!" The original Poles also have their selfishness, and they also covet the ancient mecha, which is something that changes the fate of the country after all, but now in this case, they can't care a lot. General Kurak directly agreed to Consdante's request.

At this time, on the northern coast, a large number of Swedes set foot in the northeast of Novgorod, although Novgorod is close to the sea, but their port is not suitable for large warships to pass through, so naturally relying on the navy can not threaten them, therefore, Yar Beagle chose the old way of attacking Novgorod, invaded from the northeast, directly took the Neva fortress, and finally captured Novgorod.

It's just that this original plan was abruptly terminated by Archduke Alexander, and it left an ugly scar on his skull. Although he was opposed by many generals, Yael insisted on realizing the old strategy.

"Grand Duke, that's how we were defeated at the beginning, isn't this asking for hardship now?" Many Swedes who had experienced the fiasco of that year still have lingering fears, but they do not understand why their regent insisted on doing so.

However, Yael Beagle seemed confident, "They would never have imagined that I would attack the same way as before, and the fortress guards they thought were foolproof had already been figured out by me, and they had a chance of winning if they were unprepared." Gentlemen don't think that the nobility of Novgorod is as terrible as Alexander! What's more, now Novgorod's forces have long been left with little left. In addition, if their Grand Duke really sent the main force to fight against us, it would be really unbelievable. Everybody, just wait and see the show! ”

The man slammed the long knife at his waist into the table in front of him and gave the order, and the silent generals could only choose to accept it. (To be continued.) )
