Chapter 98 The Battle of Lake Superior (1)
After all, European countries are the most powerful forces in this era. Once they become serious, the power they exert is very huge. This inhumane robbery behavior of ten tribes including the God of War Tribe has completely angered Britain and France, which were looted in the colonies. No one is wrong. You say you rob, you can rob, slaughter, rape, and burn a dragon. Nothing is left behind in every colonial town they patronized.
The colonial governments of Britain and France counted and found that in just half a month, these robbers caused them a total of 2 million pounds of property losses, part of which was destroyed. Moreover, there was a total of 35,000 people. Fortunately, the local area could not be immediately informed, otherwise the two colonial officials, from the governor to the clerk, would have to resign. For their own black hats, they must kill all these robbers before the news reached the local area.
The British and French rarely started joint combat this time. The British side dispatched 30,000 troops, while the French dispatched 25,000 troops. Together, a total of 55,000 troops, more than three times that of the ten robber tribe coalition. This time, they also rarely showed the combat effectiveness of the regular army level and stopped their behavior before the tribal robber coalition divided into three teams robbed the next town.
The robber coalition is actually not powerless to fight back. Their equipment is all the latest British equipment after the renovation of Yanhuang Trading Company. These equipment cannot be opened up a huge gap by training. In addition, the new gunpowder provided by Yanhuang Trading Company is not worse than that of the white army. However, this front and back attack is too dangerous. Moreover, each coalition has looted more than three white settlements, and the previous life crisis has been resolved, and there is no such spirit of barefoot not afraid of wearing shoes.
There was no way, the Indians did not have a systematic military and technical system. They didn't know that when they retreated, they lost their morale. When the coalition forces of the two countries saw the robbers retreat, their morale rose even more. When they rose and fell, the balance of victory began to tilt. If the strength gap between the two sides was not particularly large, morale was the standard for determining victory. After that, the robbers of the tribes of the three-way alliance were unable to break through the white settlement again and could not grab anything.
Fortunately, because of the previous carpet looting, their supplies were sufficient. They also adopted nomadic marches, so there was no worries. Especially, they were specifically wandering towards white settlements with bad roads, and for a while, they were not blocked by the white army. The white people were also constantly adjusting their strategies and performing much better than before. I don’t know if they were taught a lesson by the Yanhuang Trading Company. Their command and arrangements were still a little corporate style.
Ten tribes without a big picture and no map concept were finally blocked by these 55,000 white troops in the middle of Lake Superior. At this time, it was the early summer of the second year. After several months of consumption, these ten tribes had already ended their end. The stolen supplies, except for what they consumed, were replaced by bullets and shells by them. That's it, in a month, they would have nothing to use.
These ten tribes were not planning to leave, so they were planning to stay here and fight for life and death with the white people. Xiao Lin saw the opportunity and could make a profit from it. First, the white people dispatched more than 50,000 troops to encircle and suppress Indian robbers, and now these more than 50,000 troops are a week away from the nearest colonies of the two countries. If the colonies encounter attacks now, there is no time to visit them. This is an important opportunity.
After three months of training, the 9th Battalion of the 7th Battalion of the Guards, the 8th Battalion of the 7th Battalion of the Guards, had been completed, and the number of guards increased again. At the same time, the 120 mm heavy punch 2 artillery was officially installed in the army. The 60 mm mortar was also manufactured by several engineers recruited by Zhao Menghai in the United States. The first batch of fifteen test items and 300 shells were also equipped with troops. Some troops could be sent to grab one.
After so many things, Xiao Lin completely abandoned that little bit of shame. Looking at the history of world development, every great emperor who left his name in history can't help but use some despicable means when he first rose. Robbery is not good, but as long as he doesn't kill innocent people indiscriminately, it is not unacceptable. Xiao Lin has long talked about the last three towns in the hands of the Adams and the Pandy family, Apache, James, and Babu, each brought two combat battalions to set off.
Xiao Lin had to plan the second benefit. The ten Indian tribes, which together are 40,000 today. The soldiers composed of middle-aged men accounted for half of the number. Moreover, these soldiers have seen blood and are cruel and ruthless. They are rare people who can do black work when they can do black work. According to Xiao Lin's perception, he did not want these Indian soldiers who have no bottom line. Their ferocity has been completely released and cannot be locked up. Such soldiers can be said to be the worst soldiers like military gangsters.
Once the killing rises, let alone restraints, you won’t listen to all orders. If you do too much of the slaughter and burn the town, not only will it not be possible to get many benefits, but it will also give others a bad impression, and it may not necessarily accept their rule in the future. However, there are people in this world called stubbornness. And these soldiers are the best to deal with those stubbornness. Even if these soldiers are unwilling to join the company, their families, wives, children, old fathers and mothers are all good laborers.
Xiao Lin led a battalion to sneak into the Lake Superior area. As their most trusted arms dealer, Xiao Lin would certainly not be attacked by them, but the whites would definitely attack them. Therefore, Xiao Lin asked the sentry they caught to pass the message, and at night, he would secretly come in and visit. The current defense patrol efforts of the white army were unable to detect the elite battalion soldiers. Moreover, Xiao Lin only brought twenty elite guards and easily avoided their eyeliners.
At this time, the ten clan leaders were already waiting for Xiao Lin's arrival in a small tent. The God of War was a smart man. After guessing Xiao Lin's purpose, he was also thinking about whether to follow Xinlin's wishes. The others were not so smart, but they were a little irritable because the God of War insisted on pulling them over. After waiting for a while, before seeing Xiao Lin, someone began to breathe heavily, as if they would get angry at any time.
"Will the patriarch of the Yanhuang tribe come? The war is about to start. There are so many things, who can waste time with him here?"
"Tarim, please say less, after all, they are so strong that they can still make guns and cannons."
"What's wrong with him being able to do it? Anyway, I'm going to die this time. I'm just thinking about pulling a few more white men before I die."
"Why......"
After a few sounds, the tent fell into silence again. Soon, a subordinate of the God of War led Xiao Lin in. This was a tribe leader, who could not recognize Xiao Lin's official identity, and treated him as a clan member with powerful power. The ten people stood up and welcomed Xiao Lin, regardless of whether they were sincere or not.
"Welcome, welcome the arrival of the leader Xiaolin."
"Oh, okay, you guys, don't be polite, let's get to the point."
"Ah, this, we don't know what the leader of the Xiaolin came for at this time?"
"To be honest, I know that you are in a bad situation now and will even have a crisis of destruction, so this time, I'm here to help you."
"What help? As far as I know, you don't seem to have tens of thousands of troops. I also admit that your army is powerful, but not as powerful as one to ten."
"To be honest, I admit that you are right, but this does not mean that I cannot solve this situation. If my powerful army emerges behind the white army while fighting fiercely, wouldn't it help you? I also know that this will cause some loss of your strength, but it's better than all of them dead. Moreover, I can prepare you new places of residence, I will have all your food and accommodation in the future, and I will also provide you with new weapons."
"Oh, then I don't know, what price we have to pay?"
"The leader of the God of War is a smart man. The price is that you will officially merge into the Yanhuang Trading Company from then on and become my subordinates."
"You dream, we would rather die than be your slaves."
Xiao Lin did not expect that as soon as he said his request, except for the God of War, the other patriarchs clearly expressed their opposition. He didn't say anything about the following words, and was so angry that he was so angry that he didn't want to speak. Xiao Lin didn't talk nonsense and stood up and left. They were unwilling to accept his kindness, so he didn't plan to put his warm face on his cold butt. However, before he could take a few steps, he was stopped by the God of War.
"Captain Xiao Lin, don't go so fast, I have something to tell you."
"What do the leader of the God of War want to say to me? Do you want to continue to mock me?"
"Of course not. Those people are savages who can't speak their brains. I hope you don't mind. I'm looking for you to ask if you can help me rescue all the old, young, women and children of the God of War Tribe."
"Oh, I believe the leader of the God of War knows the price of letting me take action?"
"Of course, I will let them all listen to you, and from now on, these people will be your people."
"Captain of the God of War, aren't you going to go together?"
"The men in the God of War Tribe are never afraid of death, and, however, those old, young, women and children have not participated in the massacre. They should not die. We will stay here to buy time for you, and I will ask you for everything."
