Three days later, in the palace of St. Petersburg, Tsar Peter I held a banquet for Lord Churchill, the British colonial minister who was about to leave Russia in his private name. On the day of the banquet, Churchill entered the palace early and stayed in the Tsar's study for an hour.

At that time, there were only Peter I and Churchill in the study, and there was no third person, so no one knew what they were talking about in the study.

However, when the door of the study opened and Peter I personally sent Churchill out, the guards at the door saw Churchill smiling, and Peter I also had a smile on his lips.

On the fourth day, Churchill left Russia and returned to Sweden. After arriving in Sweden, he went to meet the Swedish queen and asked her about the results of contact with Russia.

The results of Russia's contact were not good or bad. Churchill once again dissuaded the Swedish Queen to give up those unrealistic ideas, but was eventually rejected. However, for the Swedish Queen, although she rejected Churchill's kindness, Churchill did not set obstacles on the Alliance fleet and promised that the British fleet would do its best to cooperate with the Swedish side.

This completely relieved the Queen of Sweden's heart. In the following days, British warships came to Sweden one after another, and the Alliance fleet was truly formed. With the promise and actual support of the United Kingdom, the Queen of Sweden was much more confident and was stronger for Russia.

As time goes by, Russia has become increasingly dissatisfied with Sweden's ruthlessness. Seeing Sweden completely deny the content of the agreement signed with Russia after the defeat of Karl XII, this is absolutely not allowed by Russia.

Russia considered using force to teach this crazy woman a lesson over a month ago, and now Sweden's attitude has proved that the Swedish queen has actually tore up the agreement, and war is inevitable in this case.

The long winter finally passed, and when the breath of spring just came, Russia launched a war against Sweden without hesitation.

Russia gathered almost all warships out of the Gulf of Finland and rushed towards Sweden. Sweden, which had been on high alert, responded immediately. Sweden and the British Alliance fleet also came out in full swing, and naval battle broke out.

A day later, the main forces of both sides discovered each other at about 10 o'clock in the morning and instantly launched a naval battle in the North Sea. The naval battle began to be evenly matched. Although Sweden is not as good as Russia in terms of national strength, for maritime forces, with the support of British warships, the alliance fleet was not at all inferior.

The sails on the sea covered the sun, and the two sides were coming and going, and the cannons rumbling. But as time went by, especially about one hour and twenty minutes after the outbreak of the naval battle, a British second-class warship, after taking a few shots from the Russian main battleship, the British fleet, which was still brave enough to be the first, suddenly became completely different from the deflated ball.

At first, the commander of the Swedish fleet thought that the British fleet was adjusting its position and seizing the upper hand with the Russian fleet. But soon the fleet commander was shocked to find that the British fleet had actually begun to flee the battlefield. This surprising action suddenly put the Swedish fleet fighting in trouble.

What is even more difficult to understand is still behind. The Russian fleet ignored the British fleet that quickly left the battlefield. The main force of the entire fleet surrounded the Swedish fleet and attacked fiercely.

In an instant, the sky-covered artillery shells and raindrops flew towards the Swedish warships. The Swedish fleet fought desperately, trying to break the gap and leave the battlefield, but never succeeded.

When the naval battle was at 3:00 pm, the Swedish fleet had lost seven warships of all sizes and sizes. The remaining warships were scarred. Seeing that they could not escape, the commander of the Swedish fleet committed suicide after giving orders to surrender. He used his life to safeguard the final glory of the Swedish fleet and expressed the Swedish belief that the Swedish were unyielding.

In the end, the naval battle ended. The Russian fleet won the naval battle at the cost of losing a second-class warship, and directly annihilated and captured the main Swedish fleet, "repelling" the British fleet that was fighting in Sweden.

After leaving the battlefield, the British fleet did not return to the Swedish port at all. They drew a curve in the North Sea and headed towards the British Isles.

Compared with the Swedish fleet that was completely wiped out, the actual losses of the British fleet were not large. One warship had not sunk, and only a few were slightly injured.

When the naval battle reached Stockholm, the Queen of Sweden fainted on the spot when she learned that the naval battle had been defeated and the Swedish fleet was wiped out. She was so shocked that the eunuchs and maids around her were hurried to find a doctor to treat them, and finally came to abstain.

After waking up, the Swedish Queen carefully asked the people who had escaped to the sea battle. After learning the real situation, the Swedish Queen was so angry that she gritted her teeth. At this time, she knew very well that she had been fooled by the British, or that she was fooled by the British and Russians.

The abominable and cunning British completely betrayed Sweden. The British used Sweden's trust to sell Sweden directly to Russia, resulting in a disastrous defeat in the naval battle that determined the fate of Sweden.

However, it was too late for the Swedish queen to wake up at this time. She cried like a shrew, cursing and cursing Churchill, George II, and Peter I to hell in the most vicious language, but to no avail.

The failure of this naval battle made Sweden lose its last hope and completely broke Sweden's backbone.

Because the Queen of Sweden was tough in his attitude towards Russia, many nobles in Sweden had dissatisfaction with her before. It is precisely because of this that the Queen of Sweden placed almost all her hopes in this naval battle. In her opinion, as long as she could win this naval battle, all her previous efforts would be successful, and Sweden would also restore her status as a powerful northern country.

But now everything is shattered, and the only capital she puts in is gone. She is now a gambler who lost all her last chips at the gambling table, and she has no hope of turning around.

In order to save Sweden, the queen sent envoys to negotiate with Russia under the persuasion of her husband Frederick. At the demands of tough Russia, Sweden not only fully accepted the content of the agreement after the defeat of Karl XII, but also ended the war with the abdication of the Swedish queen and the original king Frederick inherited the throne of the Swedish king.

When the Swedish queen officially announced her abdication, she was no longer the queen of Sweden from this moment, and her identity changed from a queen to a queen.

But for Sweden, this is not just a change in its identity as a queen, but the complete loss of Sweden's status as a powerful country, and it also represents the end of the Palatinate dynasty, which once owned Sweden and dominated Europe.
