Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The military movements in Manhattan attracted the attention of the two local governors of the British colonies of Pennsylvania and Virginia.

    And because the Song Empire sent troops and the soldiers were directed at them, the British colonies suddenly felt an atmosphere of panic.

    "Why, why are you doing this to us?"

    ¡°Asshole, do they think we are easy to bully?¡±

    "Run quickly, the people of the Song Empire are not easy to deal with."

    For a time, the atmosphere of panic spread in the British colonies, and people fled the two colonies one after another.

    At the same time, even the Indians living around the two colonies began to choose sides.

    The leader of the Mohicans in the Song Empire, Black Bear, has sent people to these small tribes to tell them everything and let them start choosing sides.

    Black Bear¡¯s words are very clear. The British followed the Song Empire.

    These Indians are not stupid, they also know who is the most powerful in this land.

    Therefore, they all expressed their willingness to marry into the Song Empire and integrate into Mohican and become Mohican people.

    ??Everyone can see what the life of the Indian tribes who joined the Mohican tribe in the early days is like now.

    It can be said that their lives now must have undergone earth-shaking changes from the past, and they are completely different.

    Now that there is such an opportunity, it is impossible for these small tribes not to seize it.

    After all, who doesn¡¯t want to live a better life.

    The Indian groups in the Song Empire could serve as soldiers and officials in the empire.

    Having only slightly less rights than Chinese people, it can be said to be better than many people.

    If you don¡¯t like to be an official, you like to be a free person.

    Then, you only need to register with the Ministry of War and become a reserve.

    When there is no war, you will receive a few pieces of Longyang as a reward every month.  You can do whatever you want.

    You can go hunting, run a street stall, or serve as bodyguards for others.

    The degree of freedom is very high.

    At the same time, the prices of certain products in Manhattan of the Song Empire were much cheaper than those sold in the surrounding areas. However, you must have the status of a citizen to enjoy such discounts.

    You know, now that there is such an opportunity in front of them, it is simply a very jealous thing.

    How many Europeans working in Manhattan wanted to become citizens of the Empire, but they couldn't do it.

    Now among the Indians in the empire, such a benefit has been temporarily opened.

    After passing this village, there is no such place.

    so.  The Indian tribes surrounding the two British colonies seized this opportunity to join the Mohican tribe of the Song Empire, becoming Mohicans and citizens of the Song Empire.

    Originally, the governor of the British colony wanted to summon these tribes to resist the Song Empire's military front.  But they never imagined that before they summoned these tribes, these tribes had already gone to the Song Empire.

    It can be said that these two British colonies are now isolated.

    And.  They are still far away from home, and this crisis is obviously very detrimental to them.

    Through the Manhuaton office, the British protested to Zhang Tie.

    But Zhang Tie ignored it at all.

    At the same time, Zhang Tie took out the investigation from the Intelligence Department.  placed in front of the British office staff.

    The application form was written clearly and clearly.

    How many benefits did the British give to the pirates, allowing them to unite and recruit more companions to attack Manhattan.

    There was also a confession.  There are also signatures and witnesses.

    Faced with all this, the British were speechless.

    "Go back and wait. We, the Song Empire, are not easy to bully."

    In Zhang Tie¡¯s rage, the office staff left Zhang Tie¡¯s office in despair.

    This news was quickly spread back to the British colonies and placed on the desk of the Governor's Mansion.

    Looking at this news, the governors of the two places could only smile bitterly.

    They scolded the local gentlemen in their hearts for eating people's food and not doing anything for others.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Out of the way, he still did this kind of thing behind his back despite knowing that the Song Empire was not easy to mess with.

    They are far away on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean, but they don't care. Their two colonies are very close to the Song Empire.

      Moreover, the mainland also forcibly occupied the buffer zone and established the Pennsylvania colony. What did the Song Empire think?

    idiot!

    They are truly a bunch of idiots.

    Greed also depends on timing and environment.

    This is not Europe. In America, there is no doubt about the power of the Song Empire.

    Challenging such an opponent is no different from seeking death.

    Although I cursed in my heart, I still had to do what needed to be done.

    The two British colonies immediately issued emergency mobilization orders so that people in all colonies could take up arms and prepare to defend their homes against invaders.

    At the same time, they also sent people into Manhattan to spread incitement to the British working there, hoping that they could start trouble in Manhattan and cause some trouble for the Song Empire.

    However, the orders of the two colonies were not responded to by the British service personnel in Manhattan at all.

    ¡°These people are very comfortable in Manhattan, they don¡¯t know why they are looking for trouble.

    This is simply a struggle to live a good life.

    ¡°Besides, if there is chaos in Manhattan, what good will it do to themselves?

    There is no benefit at all.

    So, only an idiot would respond to this bullshit call from the Governor of the British Colonies.

    Not only did no one pay attention, but some people reported these instigators and arrested them.

    Europeans in this era have almost no concept of a country.

    For them, whoever gives them money to do things is the person they are loyal to.

    Whoever gives them enough food and enables them to live a better life will be the one they serve.

    This is the mainstream thinking of Europeans in this era.

    This idea seems outrageous to modern people today, but it is very popular and true in this era.

    The British colonies had no advantages over Manhattan.

    The officials here are corrupt and bend the law, and they often harass the people, making their lives miserable.

    Even people in the colonies left one after another to find a life in Manhattan.  They will not forget to loot from these people.

    These workers have to pay high taxes from time to time, and these tax collectors come from the two colonies.

    It¡¯s weird, isn¡¯t it?

    People from the British colonies were looking for jobs in Manhattan.

    The colonial tax officials simply stayed here in Manhattan and asked the British people who came to work in Manhattan to pay taxes.

    At the same time, these taxes are terrifyingly high.

    In this regard, these British people from the British colonies were very unhappy.

    ¡°These tax collectors, taking the tax money they received, were living and drinking in Manhattan.  This makes the British people even more secretly resentful.

    So, how can these people now respond to this call and protect those who extract their wealth?

    The Indians would not help, and the people who went out did not respond to the call.

    The Song Empire¡¯s army has not yet arrived, but the current situation is already very desperate.

    But, in fact, it is more than that.

    There are still many troubles in the British colonies.

    Although there are still many people left in these two colonies, they have not gone to Manhattan to find a life.

    But who are these people?

    Some idle gangsters.  There are also gangsters who are unable to enter Manhattan, or even expelled from Manhattan.

    "These guys also know the power of the Song Empire in Manhattan, so they can't respond to the call for resistance and contribute to the colony.

    It¡¯s not just a lack of effort.  They also took this opportunity to plunder property in the colony, and then fled the colony one after another.

    After receiving the news, the merchant ships that originally docked at the docks of these two colonies.  They also left the port one after another.

    It can be said that in the two colonies of Pennsylvania and Virginia, people who have the means to leave the colonies have left the colonies.

    Even if there is no way to leave.  He also tried his best to hide and not answer the call of the governors to join the army.

    For such a situation, the governors of the two places really have no choice but to curse.

    Who makes them always bully the people and constantly raise the amount of taxes paid by the people to exploit them?

    So?, at such a critical moment, it is normal for everyone to abandon them.

    At the same time, the morale of the armies of the two colonies was also unstable.

    Those soldiers were very reluctant to fight the Song Empire's army.

    Especially the Virginia army, because they fought against Zhao Hongyu last year and suffered heavy losses.

    So, they knew how powerful the Song Empire was.

    At that time, Zhao Hongyu only had a few hundred people, so he beat the rat and ran away, and finally came to Virginia City and made a big fuss.

    Nowadays, the Song Empire¡¯s army is dozens of times that of last year. How can we fight this?

    This is not a war, it is simply a matter of death.

    Therefore, the war-weariness sentiment within Virginia was very high, and they did not want to fight the Song Empire at all.

    In this situation, the governor had no choice but to use military orders and military laws to suppress the troops.

    The result of the repression was that the soldiers held grudges against their officers.

    Before the war officially started, Virginia began to experience military and political instability. This was a very unfavorable situation.

    Unlike Virginia, Pennsylvania was just established, and the soldiers here were all from England.

    They have not personally experienced the power of the Song Empire.

    Therefore, each of them is eager to give it a try.

    And a small number of these soldiers learned the tactics of the Song Empire and the art of tandem musket shooting.

    Therefore, they were not afraid of the Song Empire's army.

    It¡¯s just that life in Pennsylvania is not easy, because all the ordinary people in this colony have fled.

    Only officials and troops remain.
