Chapter 260 The British Conspiracy
"Since that's the case, let's talk about the last condition. Those in Boston who are willing to follow you can take them away, and those who are unwilling to follow you are not allowed to force them. Before you set out, my people will confirm it."
"This is not true, but I hope you can give us more time so that we can organize the evacuation of manpower."
"I will only give you one week in one week. In a week, if you have not handed Boston to me, then my subordinates will seize Boston by force."
"Okay, we'll go back to organize right away. Now, we'll say goodbye."
There was no bargaining at all, and Lin Man and the other two agreed to all the conditions of Xiao Lin. This was not like a choice that the pretentious British could make. Xiao Lin couldn't help but be confused. According to his vision, these people would definitely bargain with him for a long time just to gain more benefits. Of course, Xiao Lin would not lower his requirements. The cautious Xiao Lin suspected that there was a problem. If you want to know the real purpose of the three, you could only use the ace in Boston to die.
The so-called death is actually a type of spy invented by Xiao Lin himself. After the spy comes to the target designated by the mission, he will only take one measure, that is, to become his confidant desperately. Even if he discovers any useful information, they will not be responsible for passing it on. It is to imply guide ordinary spies to come, and it depends on whether the value of the information is worth it. This is to minimize the possibility of exposure.
They will not use it until the company needs it. They will immediately collect all the information that can be collected immediately, mainly the information designated by Xiao Lin himself, and then directly rebel. Once it is activated, the dead room will be scrapped, and they will go back to the company to rest for a while and become an ordinary spy. In Boston, there are two dead room, one of which is actually the aide recruited by Lin Man a year ago, which is equivalent to a military advisor. Another one is the confidant coachman of another count.
If you want to get confirmation, you can only use the one who is Lin Man's military advisor. Because you have been trained by the company, the insights and strategies of this middle-aged and thin white man were barely among the British. Lin Man usually relied on him and tried many times. After confirming that he was not suspected of spies, he would ask him when he encountered any incident. For insurance, another coachman was also activated, and he was ready to cover his companions and evacuate him from Boston at any time.
Early the next morning, Sam personally led the team to connect two white men from the Boston subway system. The information had been obtained, but the British were not willing to give up Boston like this. Linman and three counts came back to Boston and discussed it. The reason for agreeing to Xiao Lin's conditions was that they had to take a slow-down strategy. The first time he made a reluctant attitude was to relax Xiao Lin's tense mentality, and then he could bargain the price the second time.
There are so many people in Boston that they have to evacuate, how to evacuate, and how to carry property. These are all things. As long as they do something without any trace, they can delay for a long time. At that time, they spread their hands with Xiao Lin, not that they are not attentive, but that human calculations are worse than God's calculations. The incident happened suddenly and it was time-consuming to deal with them. At that time, according to their guesses, Xiao Lin would either send someone to help them, or they would have to wait. No matter what the matter is, the time spent is not just a week.
The purpose of doing this is to get enough time for the reinforcements mentioned by the local government. Anderson's explanation is credible. After collecting the company's intelligence, Anderson firmly believed that the British power on the North American continent could not fight the Yanhuang Trading Company. Because he sent a stern letter to the local government, he asked the local government to send reinforcements as soon as possible. Local people also knew that Anderson's character was definitely not the kind of person who was timid and afraid of things and liked to lie.
Moreover, since we have decided to fight, there is no situation of stopping the troops in the middle. It is difficult for the local government to draw too many troops, and once again sent 5,000 elite veterans to follow the colonies and summon a large number of servants in various colonies, and they still have militia-level combat power. In any case, they also use firearms, which is much stronger than the Indian servants on the North American continent. They even gathered 80,000 troops. A total of more than 100 cargo ships and warships were carried to the North American continent.
As long as there are another forty days, we can reach the North American continent. Lin Man and the other two are probably longer. After planning, we will delay for forty-five days in a row. With these 80,000 people, plus the remaining 20,000 troops in Boston, the number of British troops reached 100,000. At this time, the army of Yanhuang Trading Company had been fighting for more than four months, and the material consumption was already very large, and the spirit had already begun to fall. At that time, the British team could counterattack.
Xiao Lin was really furious when he learned this news. Because these people really found the weakness of the company. The number of elite troops was small, and once they were carried out, they had to go all the way. However, the soldiers were not robots. After fighting for three consecutive months, everyone would be exhausted. This fatigue is not only physically, but also mentally. In any era, soldiers will have various psychological problems after being on the battlefield for a long time, and they will be filled with murderous aura. They will not even let the civilians go to kill red eyes at any time. At that time, it was time for a strong army with strict discipline, like a beast army that hurts others and hurts themselves to transform.
Xiao Lin set up a psychiatrist for the army, but there were only three brigades, and if they had to deal with 3,000 people, they would not be able to solve the problem. In this state, even if the troops could win in the end, most of them would be disabled. Perhaps, there were more psychologically disabled than physically disabled. At that time, it was impossible to even control the Indian tribes left on the North American continent, so how could Xiao Lin assimilate them?
Since Lin Man and the others did not eat toast, Xiao Lin was preparing to give them a penalty. However, after thinking about it, this was also an opportunity. If you forcefully seized it by force, those huge rock turrets would still not be avoided. Even if the number on the other side was small, it would cause a lot of casualties to the soldiers. Lin Man and the other two did not tell the real plan to the soldiers below, which means that the soldiers below would think that both sides would not fight again. When they saw the soldiers in the company, they would definitely relax their vigilance.
Xiao Lin could send elite troops to pretend to urge people to go once a day, quietly put the bombs in the support corners of these turrets. Ye Xiao Wang's warriors were able to install bombs on each British turret facing them without knowing it. Xiao Lin was just not allowed to take out all the bombs bought from China, all of which were high-end goods controlled from a long distance. This time he would kill Boston in one fell swoop.
Ye Xiao's people immediately started to move. They themselves carried some of these bombs. The rest would be escorted by the tank battalion. They had to urge them every day for seven consecutive days. Lin Man and the other two were bothered and didn't want to see them at all. Even in the next three days, there were no one watching them. In the corners they didn't know, bombs were loaded one by one. Because to ensure success under their noses, not all bombs were placed at the nodes.
However, if it corresponds to the inside and outside of the heavy howitzer, it will definitely destroy the entire turret at an extremely fast speed. The people of the heavy artillery regiment naturally maintained their previous firing angles, and they were already aiming at each threatening turret. On the seventh night, Xiao Lin conveyed the real plan of the British and informed them layer by layer. The soldiers at the bottom were naturally angry, but with the help of the squad leader, they could not alarm the British. After a long laziness for a week, everyone began to organize their weapons and prepare to attack at any time.
Just as I was about to pass at 1:00 a.m., Boston was still silent in the dark. Xiao Lin had already gathered with four field brigade commanders and prepared to issue the main attack order. The heavy artillery regiment conducted the last firing inspection, and then began a fierce shelling at the five turrets guarding Boston. At the same time, the soldiers of the Night Owl also pressed buttons one by one. It was like the sky collapsed and the earth cracked. The five turrets, when they lost their blasts inside and outside, turned into ruins.
Many British soldiers were buried alive by gravel and broken wood in their sleep. Because the company's army did not move until nightfall and was still lazy and resting, the British did not expect them to attack. Even the three counts of Linman planned to go to Xiaolin when it was near noon on the eighth day. The huge roar of the fifth formation woke up the entire Boston. Seeing that their greatest reliance was gone in the flames and the British team, who were still in Boston, were shocked.
One by one, the officers appeared in the barracks and chased the soldiers who were also awakened to the city wall to defend. However, it was too late. Seeing the five turrets turned into ruins, Xiao Lin immediately issued an order for a full-scale attack. The troops began to set off, and formed a scattered formation and began to approach the city walls of Boston. The runners adjusted their shooting angles and carried out covered shooting according to the location of the British barracks brought back by the two deaths.
Lin Man and the other two have not yet discovered that their two confidants have been betrayed. They all thought that they were absolutely impossible and left secretly. They also thought that when they found out in the future, they would make fun of their choice.
