1717 New American Empire
Chapter 84: When the army crosses the border, people and animals are shocked
New York, a city that is beginning to take on a prosperous atmosphere, slowly begins to fall into silence as the sun sets. This was a fixed rule in the past, but today, this rule has been broken. At dusk, ten thousand people
British troops wearing red military uniforms entered New York City. It seemed that groups of lobster soldiers were walking in all the lanes. All civilians in New York City ended their original plans and hurried home, closing their doors and alertly.
Look outside.
Even many businessmen closed their stalls and stores in advance for fear of provoking these ferocious soldiers. The British army has never been a popular presence in the North American colonies. Every time the British mainland raises taxes, these troops are the greatest protection.
.For civilians, the British army is synonymous with vampires, robbers and bandits. Many artificially fed turkeys were disturbed and flew to the streets and were immediately captured by the lobster soldiers for extra meals in the evening. The turkeys were lost.
The civilians did not dare to say anything and could only watch their efforts go in vain.
This army, that is, the Adams family and the Pandey family, spent a year training to deal with the Yanhuang Trading Company's troops. For this army, the two families spent their money. If they still can't destroy the Yanhuang Trading Company,
, after obtaining rich trophies from Xiao Lin, the two families will decline.
Of the 10,000-strong army, 500 were elite cavalry units, equipped with flintlock pistols, sabers, and breastplates. In addition, 1,500 troops belonged to the artillery unit, equipped with thirty four-pound cannons and twenty
Nine-pounders, ten 12-pounders and five 18-pounders. The last remaining 8,000 men were all musketeers. Three hundred of them were elite Hessian mercenaries armed with weapons purchased from France.
, everyone else was holding brand new brown bass muskets.
This was not all the strength of the two families. Since they had decided to go all-in, the two families did not hold anything back. They used the last bit of money at home to let two thousand Indians who were related to them join in.
Use their eliminated muskets and three-pound cannons to attack the Yanhuang Trading Company together.
Speaking of which, muzzle-loading flintlock guns also have some benefits that are not considered benefits. Because of the lack of accuracy, muzzle-loading guns rely on quantity to kill enemies on the battlefield. No matter how well you practice your marksmanship, you will not be able to kill more than 100 enemies.
More than 100 meters away, you can't accurately hit your target. Therefore, musketeers who use muzzleloaders only need to train their queues and reload, and their shooting ability does not need to be very good at all. This is also what you need to buy weapons.
The reason why two families can train an army of 10,000 in half a year or a few months.
Of course, the person who leads this army is someone who knows the military skills chosen from the two families. Luckily for the Pandy family, Clark is still there. After such a long period of cultivation, Clark has also recovered his mentality. Moreover, after being taught a lesson by Xiao Lin
After training twice, he also began to learn from the Yanhuang Guards and used what he had observed on the battlefield against his own personal guards. Not long after training, he had already surpassed ordinary soldiers and was on par with Hessian mercenaries.
As for the Adams family, the only Kent who can compare with Clark is currently serving as a squad leader in the fifth battalion of the Yanhuang Trading Company's escort team. The Adams family has been selecting and choosing only one descendant who has learned this aspect. It seems that this person
He has a very deep understanding of the military and can be said to be a military genius. However, just like the famous Zhao Kuo in Chinese history, he is an armchair soldier. If you ask how he discovered it, it was all Clark and him during this period.
I feel it when we lead the troops together.
Speaking of it, the words are clear and logical, but the execution is really poor. Once you encounter something more complicated, you lose your ability. If Clark hadn't been helping you all the way, the army would have mutinied. So now, even Adams
The part of the army funded by the family was even more convinced by Clark. This British Baron Zhao Kuobo was really furious, and the anger in his chest was so intense that it almost reached the sky.
No, as soon as I arrived in New York, I called the management official of the New York Army Warehouse over and cursed like crazy. The reason was that there was an abnormal decrease in the army supplies here. What is abnormal decrease, that is, it is not consumed by the army.
, but was sold secretly. Originally, they were going to resupply here and wait for the arrival of three thousand Indian auxiliary troops before setting off. For this reason, they all paid in advance and gave all the logistics materials here.
Ordered.
The money was given, but the things were missing. How could Poppy not explode completely? Even Clark was very angry about this and did not stop Poppy's behavior. The person in charge of logistics was just a poor knight, how could he dare to
At the risk of offending the two major families, he insisted on not speaking. Without any punishment, he confessed to Logan.
Why is it Luo Gen? That’s because Luo Gen helped Yanhuang Trading Company to buy these supplies. Of course, everything in New York has been taken care of. As long as the higher-ups don’t come to check, there will definitely be no problems.
Who would have known that a group of troops who had not come to investigate in the past ten years suddenly came and took over all the supplies, and the matter was exposed. The person in charge of the warehouse didn't know that when he went to Yanhuang Trading Company, he knew that Luo Gen, who was standing outside, would of course
Give him up.
The angry Bobby directly ordered all the cavalry to dispatch, under the leadership of the warehouse official, to arrest Logan. However, Logan had already received the news. How could Logan be able to work from a farmer to now?
Not cautious. He took over the matter of assisting the Yanhuang Trading Company in purchasing, not only to obtain financial benefits, but also to plan a good future for himself. Of course, he also knew about the hostile relationship between the Yanhuang Trading Company and the United Kingdom.
Once the matter was revealed and he was caught, there would definitely be no good results. Therefore, Logan had already prepared for this day. He bribed many people, including several ordinary caretakers in the warehouse. One of them
, lived in the same area as the warehouse officer. When he saw the warehouse officer being taken away by the new troops, he became aware of the troops. This man secretly left the house, went to Logan's house, and told him what he saw.
Logan.
Logan's intuition also told him that the matter must have been exposed. He did not delay, and after giving a large sum of money to the official who came to report the news, he initiated emergency measures. With the pound given by Xiao Lin, he had a lot of power.
Xiao. Almost all the low-level officers in New York were bribed by him, and more than 60 of the three hundred Hessian mercenaries under his command became his confidants. These confidants were usually concentrated in a nearby hotel. The wealthy Logan
, the entire hotel was booked for them to live in.
Logan had nothing to deal with. He had almost spent all his money and only had a little left. He had no family, and he didn’t want the house. He didn’t care. In half an hour, he took sixty-three of his confidants with him.
Walking out of the city. At this time, the soldiers sent by Bobby met with the warehouse officials and walked to Logan's house together.
There is no curfew in New York, but there are usually patrol teams on the streets. However, today because of the two family armies entering the city, the number of patrol teams has been reduced a lot. Occasionally I encounter one or two, and it is also because Logan belongs to the same robe.
There was also money management, so they greeted each other warmly and left. However, in order not to expose any flaws, they could only walk out of the city slowly. Finally, they arrived at a small locked house on the outskirts of the city. Logan
Opening the lock, a group of people all walked in.
There are not many cavalry in New York, and Logan and the others only have thirty war horses. These horses are usually kept in military camps, and Logan cannot touch them in a hurry. If you want to escape successfully, you have to run.
Faster than the cavalry. Therefore, Logan hid thirty-three mountain bikes here. Within a few months, his confidants also learned to drive using a few folding bicycles on display, working in pairs.
, each got in the car and immediately rode out of the city.
There are no city walls in New York. With such a large area, there are naturally gaps, which are places where no one is guarding. Sixty-four people filed out from here. As soon as he stepped out of New York, Logan found that the whole of New York was bustling.
Thousands of lobster soldiers were rampaging throughout the city, searching for Logan. A group of British troops obtained the location from a civilian who accidentally discovered Logan's traces, and nearly a hundred cavalry gathered together to pursue him crazily.
The two sides started chasing and escaping one after another. Although the cavalry chased them closely, Logan and the others managed to escape in the end. The cavalry only had one war horse, and the war horse was a living creature and would get tired. And Logan and his bicycles
, it is a machine. When one pedaler gets tired, another person will pedal. The off-road ability of mountain bikes is no worse than that of horses. Naturally, the distance between the two parties behind them is widened.
Without the benefit of the telegram, none of the British colonies passing by along the way knew that this group of people had been captured by the army. By the time the news came, they had already left here. Logan still had two thousand pounds in his hand, and he was supplying supplies along the way.
Together with some instant noodles and cans left behind, it took more than a month to finally arrive at Yanhuang Trading Company.
They were lucky enough to meet the Yanhuang caravan who was preparing to conduct the last transaction. However, since the incident in New York was exposed, the caravan did not need to go. They took Logan and the sixty-four people back to the small town.
town.
After more than half a year of construction, the town has also changed its appearance, full of the atmosphere of modern China. The numerous residential houses are beautiful and sturdy, all in the same style, and they look indescribably comfortable. There are more than a dozen iconic landmarks
The building has reached the five-story level. Although the fifteen-meter-high factory chimney is not a miracle, it still looks amazing. Logan and his party were like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden.
Dazzled.
