This period of time in bolotsk can be said to be the most peaceful day for Cherchen. Although the war between czar Russia and the Republic of Poland continued, Prince yanush raziweu also rushed back to Werner, reportedly preparing for a bigger battle in the future. But in the borotsk region, the war avoided it like a shy girl.

    Czar Russia seemed to have no interest in the city on the Daugava river. The Czar''s army rushed into svutsk, Minsk and other areas, but not even a partial division was sent here.

    The letter from Werner stamped with the personal seal of Prince yanush raziweu only told Cherchen to pay attention to recruiting and training the team, and said that a batch of arms and military salaries would be transported from the territory of the raziweu family to Cherchen. Obviously, the prince was also very aware of their situation and gave them enough training time.

    Recruiting and buying horses are also things that Chechen has been doing. After bolotsk settled down, Cherchen hung wickers outside their hotel and began to recruit soldiers. Thanks to the local martial tradition and the prestige of the raziweu family in Lithuania, more than 120 people were soon attracted. With more people, the small hotel can''t be arranged. After informing and obtaining the consent of Anjie, Chechen arranged the residence of the mercenary regiment outside the city. In the following days, Pedro and fedot arranged most of the military training, while Ingrid took care of the logistics in an orderly manner, and the mercenary regiment was slowly on the right track.

    But today, more than half a month later, a sniezhko nobleman came to the mercenary regiment to visit Chechen. Sniezhko is a village under Polotsk, but it does not belong to Anjie.

    When the local nobles came to visit, Cherchen certainly had to be courteous and considerate. He invited the nobles into the house and asked the horse to bring meat and wine.

    The aristocrat''s name is casian. He is the oldest elder in snieriko village and the head of snieriko village. He chatted with Cherchen and brought the topic to Anjie.

    "I came to Polotsk today to pay tribute to our city Lord Anjie, but he doesn''t seem to be in the city. You may not know that sniezhko village is far away from Polotsk city. I''m a new village head and haven''t seen the city Lord. I also don''t know what kind of character the City Lord Anjie is. Your Excellency Chechen is the deputy to the city Lord arranged by Prince yanush Hand, I must know Lord Anjie very well. Can you give me some advice? "

    Cassian''s words are not true. Since he knew that Chechen was arranged by the prince in Polotsk, how could he not know that Chechen had only been here for more than ten days, and how could he know Anjie very well.

    Obviously, the old village head has another purpose.

    "Perhaps the village head of Cassian was sent by Anjie to catch his handle." Chechen thought to himself.

    No wonder Chechen thinks so. He was arranged by the prince to recruit troops and horses in Polotsk. After all, he occupied other people''s territory. It''s hard to guarantee that Anjie didn''t say it because of the prince''s order, but he had a grudge against his existence in his heart, and then sent someone to find out if he was wrong.

    As soon as he thought about this, Chechen had to pick up some nice words and said, "Lord Anjie was born in a Zanying family, with noble blood and is a famous soldier. It is precisely because of him that the Czar Russian army dare not set foot on the land of Polotsk. I also admire him very much."

    Village head kasian nodded and agreed. He said: "We also admire the patriotic soldiers like Lord Anjie very much. May God give us more people like him. But some of his subordinates are ruining his reputation. These are a group of villains and bastards! They set fire, commit violence and rob. They committed all the disgusting things you can think of. They robbed farmers'' cattle at the entrance of the village and publicly claimed that they were Anjie Iraq''s troops. Some people want to complain to the city hall, but they beat them at the gate of the city. "

    The village head of kasian nagged, and Chechen finally understood. The village head of sniezhko village came to complain to himself. Obviously, he regarded himself as the representative of the prince in bolotsk. In his opinion, the prince yanush raziweu was the largest official in Lithuania, and under the prince''s rule, of course, Anjie It is controlled by the prince. Then those who are princes should have more or less power to restrain Anjie.

    But now Chechen and his mercenary regiment actually depend on others. And Chechen can understand more or less the actions of Anjie''s subordinates. After all, he is not the lengtouqing when he first arrived in zamoshye village.

    Before leaving, the prince promised that Anjie could form an army of more than 1000 people to strengthen Polotsk''s defense. However, Anjie is an officer of the Republic, not a servant of the raziwiu family like himself. Of course, the prince will not pay the military expenses himself. The prince''s words can only be regarded as a promise or permission. But the expansion of the army is urgent. In this way, Anjie If we want to increase the army, we have to squeeze the people under Polotsk.

    Obviously, the atrocities of Anjie''s subordinates in the mouth of village head kasian have been more or less acquiesced or even hinted by Anjie.

    If he rashly takes the lead for snerzhiko village, he will certainly offend Anjie. At that time, he can choke Cherchen back by saying, "I don''t collect from farmers, will your mercenary regiment pay for the military?".

    "Did they kill people?" Chechen asked.

    "No."

    It seems that these Anjie''s subordinates are decent.

    I can only muddle through this matter.

    These thoughts turned around in Chechen''s mind. He thought out his words and said to the village head of Cassian: "Obviously, the actions of these violent soldiers will not be inspired by Lord Anjie. These people are so reckless that they have tarnished not only their honor, but also Lord Anjie''s reputation. I believe that the mayor of Anjie doesn''t know. If he knows what his men do, he will be angry and send them to the gallows."

    "Exactly."

    "But in this way, it will certainly weaken the defense forces in the Polotsk area, and there will be a quarrel between lord Anjie and your village."

    After listening to Chechen''s words, the village head of Cassian hesitated. Sniezhko village is in the west of bolotsk, close to the area where the Czar Russian army is raging. Once the Czar Russian army invades bolotsk, sniezhko village will bear the brunt. At that time, the village will have to rely on those soldiers to protect it.

    Seeing that Cassian had not spoken for a long time, Chechen knew that his words had worked. He thought of a way to make the best of both worlds.

    "How about this? Even if they bought the cattle lost by your village head. We''ll pay for it. How about this? I''ll also speak to Anjie and remind him to discipline his subordinates."

    With the wealth obtained from the bandits'' nest, Chechen and them are now rich. He doesn''t pay attention to a few cows and a hundred and ten Taylor''s money. Moreover, spending a little money can not only comfort the villagers of sniezhko, but also marry Anjie. Chechen thinks it is killing two birds with one stone.

    When he heard that Chechen was willing to pay for the loss of sneriko village, the village head of Cassian was moved. In fact, he had no hope of getting compensation. He just wanted to remind the mayor of Anjie about his behavior.

    He immediately expressed his willingness to accept Cherchen''s handling plan, and the matter came to a "satisfactory" end.

    Until three days later, the arms that Prince yanush raziwiu had sent to the mercenary regiment were also robbed by anjay''s men.
