- "Our Mohican camp was attacked, and the elders, leaders, and Atido were all killed!"
The black bear who was confronting the British on the Great Plains received bad news from the camp. As soon as this news came out, it immediately caused unrest among the Mohicans on the Great Plains.
They are fighting at the front, but their homes have been destroyed. How can they calm down and continue fighting? Many of the warriors' wives, children, and children are in the tribe, so how can they not be worried.
Therefore, their hearts were floating and their fighting power began to drop sharply.
Black Bear has received many requests from soldiers, all of whom hope to retreat back to see their families.
Black Bear also knew that he could not suppress this matter, but he also understood that if he retreated, all his previous efforts would be in vain. But the soldiers' request was completely reasonable, and he had no reason to refuse.
So, distressed, he found Zhang Tie to discuss.
Just as Zhang Tie was here, the liaison personnel sent by Zhao Hongyu had arrived, and Zhang Tie also told them the recent news.
Ask them to go back and notify Zhao Hongyu as soon as possible. It is very likely that the situation of the war will change greatly during this period. Now he has no way to judge the outcome of this war.
"Sir, what the leader means is that he will take the initiative to attack and destroy the actual British settlement in Virginia. If possible, he will attack the largest British city in Virginia. Of course, the premise is that everything goes as expected and the gold coins can be sold. Just pay the antique price.¡±
The genetic liaison officer told Zhang Tie everything Zhao Hongyu had planned.
Zhang Tie is not opposed to Zhao Hongyu's plan at all, because taking the initiative to destroy the British immigration settlement in Virginia has great benefits, so he is very supportive.
And by destroying these settlements, it can also damage the morale of British soldiers here on the front line.
But what¡¯s more troublesome now is that the Mohican camp has been destroyed. Before the morale on the British side has dropped, the Mohican side has become chaotic first.
"You go back immediately and tell the leader that the Mohican camp was destroyed by a sneak attack. Now the people in the Great Plains are very unstable. I don't think the black bears can support it for long, and retreat is inevitable. But I will try my best to teach them guerrilla warfare to hold them back. Some time. I hope the leader can make it bigger so that it can influence the British."
Zhang Tie has already judged the situation of the Mohicans and asked the liaison officer to return immediately to inform Zhao Hongyu and tell him his plans here.
Just after the liaison officer left, Black Bear rushed to Zhang Tie.
As Black Bear complained, Zhang Tie sighed secretly.
"Retreat. This is everyone's wish now. You can't suppress it alone. If you suppress it too hard, it will cause a riot among the soldiers, and the gain will outweigh the loss."
Zhang Tie had already weighed the pros and cons, so as soon as Black Bear finished complaining, Zhang Tie gave him an answer and a solution.
"Remember to send people to notify the tribes in the two flanks and ask them to retreat to the Mohican camp and stop entangled with the vassal tribes sent by the British."
Since the Great Plains side is about to retreat, the tribes on both flanks who are still fighting the Indians, the vassal tribes of the British, must be informed so that they can have peace of mind.
"Otherwise, it would be very unethical for the Mohicans to withdraw without notifying them.
Black Bear nodded, what else can he do now?
"Okay, I'll let the soldiers prepare now, and we'll retreat in the evening."
Now that the decision has been made, Black Bear is not wordy.
He immediately left Zhang Tie¡¯s place and informed him of his decision.
It is unrealistic to evacuate during the day, as this will allow the British to discover and launch a pursuit-style attack.
Therefore, retreating at night is the best option.
Since they are about to retreat, Zhang Tie needs to take some action.
Since they are retreating, speed must be the first priority, and their four artillery pieces have obviously become a liability.
In order to prevent the artillery from falling into the hands of the enemy and being used by the enemy, Zhang Tie ordered the gene man to find wooden wedges and drive them into the fuse socket of the artillery, completely sealing it.
As a result, even if the British obtained these four artillery pieces, they would not be able to use them.
At the very least, the wood cannot be used until it is cleaned.
And if you want to clean up those pieces of wood, it will take a lot of effort.
Now that I have said it, the leader has invested in the production of 24-pound cannons. These 8-pound cannonsIt is destined to be eliminated in the end. Therefore, there is nothing to regret, so Zhang Tiecai made this decision.
When night fell, the Mohicans quietly began to retreat.
At noon the next day, the British discovered something strange in the Mohican position opposite, and then sent people to investigate and found out that all the Mohicans had left.
When David first got the news, he still couldn't believe it.
However, after attacking the Mohican camp and successfully evacuating the Indians back to the British side, David finally understood what the problem was.
But by this time, the Mohicans had already safely evacuated the Great Plains, and the British would not be able to catch up even if they pursued them.
David felt extremely regretful when he thought about this. This was the second time he missed the opportunity to defeat the Mohicans.
But he had no choice but to send soldiers out to the two flanks to call back all the Indians who had vassalized Biluo.
David plans to integrate the different forces into one force to fight the Mohicans.
¡°Anyway, he can¡¯t catch up with the Mohicans now.
In this way, David stayed in the Great Plains for another two days.
But within the past two days, David received some bad news one after another.
A strange Indian tribe is raging in Virginia. They have destroyed many Indian tribes and British settlements.
Moreover, the number of this tribe is increasing, and the British militia troops who originally pursued them can no longer compete with them. Therefore, the Governor hopes that David will mobilize the troops back to eliminate this tribe that has entered the Virginia area. Indians.
After David received the letter from the Governor of Virginia, he weighed it again and again.
Finally, he made a decision.
That is to continue attacking the Mohicans.
As David, his plan is very simple. He is to take advantage of the Mohicans' retreat in the past few days to accumulate strength on his side.
Then, after defeating the Mohicans in one go, he returned to Virginia to eliminate the strange tribe.
After all, the situation on the battlefield is beginning to be favorable to them. If they don't take advantage of this opportunity to attack, they will completely miss the opportunity.
Davide had missed two opportunities originally, but now he didn¡¯t want to let himself miss the chance to defeat the Mohicans for the third time, otherwise he would never forgive himself for the rest of his life.
After David made this decision, he took his 3,600 British soldiers and the 8,000 vassal tribe warriors who failed after fighting on both wings, totaling 11,600 people and began to advance in the direction of the Mohican tribe.
When the Mohicans returned to the tribe, they were also very sad.
The entire home was destroyed and all the elders died. The old leader Samara and his son Atido also died in the battle. It can be said that the upper class of the tribe was emptied out at once.
Compared to the sadness of the Mohicans, Zhang Tieke laughed secretly in his heart.
The elders and leaders of Mohawkan are dead, which is a good thing for them.
Now among these people, when it comes to fame and things like that, Black Bear is the only one.
So, Black Bear may become the new leader of the Mohican tribe. At the same time, black bears do not like white people, which determines the basis for their continued cooperation with Mohawk.
And the black bear is not so rigid and conservative, and has a strong ability to accept new things, which is completely different from the elders.
Therefore, Zhang Tie has high hopes for the black bear who has a strong receptive ability and has a good relationship with them as their leader.
The former home was in ruins, and everything was burned down by the attackers' fire.
The Mohican warriors began to look for their families. Some women and children hiding in the forest or bushes not far away returned to the tribe with tears streaming down their faces after seeing their men return.
War is sometimes like this. He will not favor anyone just because you are righteous or evil. The harm is often experienced by both enemies.
And only a few people benefit from it.
¡°Some family members of Mohican warriors were killed in this raid, but only a few were lucky. In everyone's family, a relative has died.
For a time, a thick atmosphere of sadness filled the sky above the ruins of the Mohican tribe.
"Black Bear, now is not the time for you to be sad. It won't be long before the British are coming. We haveThe matter of retirement cannot be concealed for long. "
Zhang Tie kindly reminded Black Bear.
After listening to Zhang Tie¡¯s reminder, Black Bear stopped feeling sad in his heart and quickly summoned his soldiers to start a discussion.
Black Bear¡¯s wife and daughter were sent to Manhattan Island, so they were not harmed.
Originally Emma was going to join the war with Zhao Hongyu, but in the end she was left behind by Zhao Hongyu. Although little Emma was very angry, Zhao Hongyu ignored it.
In war, it is better for children not to participate as much as possible.
??In the end, Black Bear became the trusted leader of Mohican. They also notified the tribal leaders who had withdrawn from the two flanks, and they re-formulated plans to deal with the British.
According to Zhang Tie¡¯s proposal, the women, children and elderly people will go to Manhattan Island.
It is much safer there than the ruined Mohican tribe.
The Black Bear and the tribal leaders who came to help in the battle will lead their warriors to fight raids and guerrilla warfare with the British in the nearby forests and grass.
David led the army to move towards Mohawk, but what he didn't know was what kind of obstacles he would face.
But Black Bear didn¡¯t know that some of the soldiers they took back from the British when they retreated were already infected with the plague. And in the past few days, some people have started to get sick.
It¡¯s just that the soldiers who got sick didn¡¯t take it seriously, so it hasn¡¯t attracted everyone¡¯s attention.
And among the Mohican women and children who were about to land on Manhattan Island, some were also infected with the disease.
In this war, it is really unknown who will win.
Zhao Hongyu didn¡¯t know anything about this yet. He was leading his soldiers on a rampage in Virginia, eradicating fifteen immigration settlements in three days, and frightening the British.
But his gains were not as good as before.
Except for the first time when he got 186 gold coins, he never got any gold coins again.
Among the British settlements destroyed by him, the most found were some animal furs and some mountain products they collected.
This made Zhao Hongyu very disappointed.
After a series of battles, Zhao Hongyu still had 698 soldiers, and many more were lost. But this is still because they have weapons like ¡®shotguns¡¯, otherwise the losses would be even greater.
Of course, the advantage of attacking a colony is that you can find some rum. Zhao Hongyu would pour out all the rum and keep the empty bottles to make ¡®bottle¡¯ bombs.
This was a powerful weapon that helped him defeat many troops who came to fight with them, and also gained a reputation for himself.
After Zhao Hongyu invades the colonial point, he will not kill indiscriminately. As long as those British people do not resist, Zhao Hongyu will release them and let them go to other colonial sites.
And the colonial point captured by him will definitely be set on fire by Zhao Hongyu. He won't leave anything behind for the British. Since they are here anyway, he will add some trouble to the British's hearts.
"There are still more than 300 people to upgrade. Should I continue to cultivate genetic people?" Zhao Hongyu was marching towards the city of Yaksali on the back of a black horse. He defeated fifteen British colonial settlements. , and got more than fifty good horses.
At the same time, although no more gold coins were found in the future, he did not let go of the commodities in the colony. Therefore, his virtual account still increased a lot.
The cash of 25,000,000 yuan has already satisfied Zhao Hongyu.
No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat. After all this trouble, the balance in the account will increase, right?
"Chief, if you really want to attack Yaksali City, then our manpower will definitely not be enough." Wang Shan reminded carefully. "We have asked many prisoners at the immigration point. According to their intelligence, there are tens of thousands of people in Yaksali, which is not something that our mere few hundred people can handle."
"Then I will continue to cultivate gene people. Now there are three 24-pound artillery guns in the workshop. And we are all equipped with shotguns. Although loading is a bit troublesome, there is absolutely no problem in using them to deal with those British guys."
Zhao Hongyu told Wang Shan some of the advantages he now has.
Wang Shan thought about it for a moment. If there were a thousand men and 24-pound artillery, it would be possible to capture the city of Yaksali.
"Chief, Yaksali is the largest British city in Virginia. This city hasNeedless to say, some wealth must be a lot, but its defense must also be quite powerful. You have to be mentally prepared. If that doesn't work, we have to retreat immediately because we are already deep into the heart of Virginia. "
"And" Wang Shan stopped here, he was hesitant to speak. Zhao Hongyu understood what Wang Shan was going to say. He answered: "You are talking about the information obtained from those white-skinned people. These days, the Governor of Virginia is summoning nearby immigration points to gather them all in Daoyak." Things happening near Sally City?" (To be continued.
