Dominate the Country

"Have all the 'evidence' been put in place?" The young officer in charge asked the white youth beside him in a low voice. They were going to do something very important tonight, and nothing could go wrong. If things went wrong this time, they could all prepare to pack up and go to prison to eat prison food and undergo labor reform, and never think of getting out of this life again.

The rest of the people were silent, one of them was still wiping the plaster on his face. These people had just followed the white youth to sneak into the US military camp. Although the white youth was the one who spoke and talked, the people behind him also needed to put on some makeup. As the vanguards of the reconnaissance brigade directly under the brigade, they knew the importance of what they were doing tonight. They must not let the Americans catch them.

"Then hide." The young officer in charge whispered, and then everyone lay on the ground, quietly waiting for the super-large fireworks to bloom. The camp in front of us is an American camp. There are now 140 to 150 people living in this camp. The Americans have urgently built two large wooden warehouses to store gunpowder and a considerable amount of military supplies.

The US military had only one platoon before, and all the materials and ammunition were hidden in a cellar, but with the arrival of the militia company, the cellar was no longer enough. The Americans simply built two wooden platoon houses. From this, it seems that we can see a little sign that the Americans have no intention of fighting with Chen Han now. Their response is too casual.

What the young officers do is to let the selected personnel bring Indian ornaments, sneak into the US military camp, make timed explosion and fire devices on the two warehouses, and then throw the Indian ornaments at the crime scene and outside the venue. The ornaments are made of stone and horn, so pay attention to the location of the "drop". Then there is another one, the St. Andrew's Cross!

St. Andrew's Cross is in the shape of an 'X', because Andrew was eventually executed on this X-shaped cross, so the X-shaped cross later became his symbol, which symbolizes difficult endurance and unwavering faith. The Scots like to use the X-shaped cross symbol.

Their intention is to frame the British and Indians, but the Americans must be fools to believe that the British will do this.

Although it is not surprising that the British really took action, they also have the motivation to "take action", but in that case, the "evidence" left at the scene should be the things of the Chinese and Indians. But the Americans are not fools. What if they hide the Indian ornaments and only use the Chinese evidence to argue? Shouldn't they be on guard against this?

The best way to prevent it is to leave them no evidence at all, and even if there is evidence, they will deny it.

Besides, they did not wrong the British. The British may really have this kind of intention, and they definitely hope that the Americans and the Chinese garrison will fight now. This will not only drag China's feet, but also weaken the power of the old Americans.

The Americans were really lax in their defense. The militiamen who came to reinforce them urinated and defecated everywhere in the military station, walked around randomly, drank, sang and danced. They were not here to prepare for war. This provided great convenience to their enemies.

At 11 o'clock in the evening, taking advantage of the howling southeast wind, after several consecutive explosions, some flames quickly rose up with the help of the wind, and the entire US military station was in chaos.

"Boss, if we take the opportunity to attack now, we can easily take them all down." A scout said beside the officer. At this time, the scout's voice had been released, because the noisy US military camp would definitely not hear his voice.

The leading officer smiled and waved his hand, "Retreat!"

The fire had already started, and it was no use for him to stay here with his men. Instead, there was a risk of exposure. The officer led his men to leave the dark hillside one by one and walk back to the way they came. They still had a lot to do, but tonight was destined to be a day that would be remembered by history! Thinking of this, the group of people were all excited.

"No one is allowed to walk around or shout, each of you stay at your post and guard against enemy attacks!" At this time, the officer in the regular US Army showed the qualities that a veteran should have. He first sent people to let the people in the dormitory quickly gather and evacuate those who were going to put out the fire. Two warehouses caught fire at the same time, and one of them was their arsenal. Going to put out the fire at this time is actively seeking death.

Of course, this fire also burned him to the point of heartache. All the reserve food in the military station - there should be only a small part in the kitchen, horse fodder, and their military supplies in the military station, including clothes, bedding, canned food, pickled meat, sugar, coffee, medicine, etc., as well as all the munitions and ammunition, were destroyed together.

"What a blessing!" Seeing that the people who were going to put out the fire had been evacuated, and the warehouse storing gunpowder had a big explosion with a rumble, the platoon leader of the military station and the company commander of the militia company wiped the sweat from their foreheads.

No matter how they will be dealt with afterwards, at least no one died in this disaster. This is really God's blessing.

However, he can't relax. The warehouse was bombed and burned. This must have been done by the enemy, most likely the Chinese not far away. The two of them must find "evidence" as soon as possible and investigate the warehouse guards thoroughly, so that they can give an explanation when the higher-ups hold them accountable. At least this expresses their attitude.

When the explosion was over, the entire military station was completely illuminated by the raging fire. Everyone surrounded the fire. The ordinary soldiers looked at each other in bewilderment at first, and then quickly became indignant. It was really lucky that no one was injured in the military station except for three soldiers in the squad guarding the warehouse who were slightly burned. But they lost all their supplies. The bread, potatoes and vegetables left in the kitchen were only enough for their breakfast tomorrow.

All the supplies were burned, and the entire military station was in a critical situation of lack of food and clothing. They were three days away from the nearest US military station, and some soldiers had already set their eyes on the horses in the camp.

After the last open fire was extinguished, the sky was completely bright. The gloomy US military officers and the militia company commander ignored everyone's dissuasion and walked into the warehouse ruins that had become a pile of ashes. Everywhere you look, there are grains and pickled meats that have been carbonized by high temperature burning, as well as some lead bullets that have melted into a lump, and even some red-hot iron bullets and gun barrels.

The militia commander was also a veteran with bright eyes. After walking around the ruins for a few times, he picked out a stone necklace from the ruins with his saber. Although it was burned black and incomplete, some American soldiers recognized it at a glance - the stone necklace of the Indians. They let out a low exclamation and immediately whispered to each other.

"Could this really be done by the Bertawatomie?" The second lieutenant of the US military didn't believe it. The Indians couldn't be convicted based on a string of stones found at the scene.

However, in the process of cleaning up the ruins, the US military soon found other evidence. Including the x-shaped cross that the Scots loved to use.

The second lieutenant of the US military still didn't believe it, but the militia commander believed it. As a veteran of the year, Britain was the country that the militia commander hated the most. Then the second horse of the US military quickly ran to the nearest US military station.

Not only that, the militia commander gnashed his teeth and suggested to the second lieutenant, "It must be the British who instructed the Indians to do it. That is the Scottish x-shaped cross, there is no mistake. I saw it on the captured British back then, there is no mistake. Mr. Shaowei, they are probably not far away, I suggest to search immediately." Hatred made an old soldier confused.

The second lieutenant did not argue with the militia commander whether it was the British who did it. He just spread his hands and said, "Sorry, I can't agree to your request. We have no food."

We have no food. These six simple words made the militia commander, who had just been angry, like a deflated ball, deflated on the chair.

...

"Sir, I don't understand why the British and Indians were left at the scene. If they were to be left, they should have been left with ours. Or we could burn a warehouse ourselves, leave some American stuff, and then we could go up and take down the American military station opposite. This is provoking trouble." Jiang Kui said to Shen Shiying with a hundred incomprehensions.

So much effort was spent just to make Americans angry but not speak out? This is too cheap.

"Dare to be angry but not speak out? Yes, the Americans in Fort Dearborn are angry but not speak out. But what about those in Washington?" Shen Shiying laughed.

The atmosphere between China and the United States is already very tense, and the bilateral situation is completely on the verge of breaking out. Just like a warehouse full of gunpowder, it only needs a little fire to fly into the sky.

And this fire will become a little fire when it is sent to Washington. Even if it is not "fire", someone will make it become fire. There are many senior American officials in Washington who are unwilling to go to war with China, but at the same time, there are more people who regard China as the mortal enemy of the United States.

This fire is the last straw that breaks the camel's back.

...

Two or three miles away from the US military station, on the side and rear of a small hill, a brand new camp is being built rapidly. The flag flying in the camp is a dazzling red flag.

This is the second step of the garrison plan.

It's too much to push the issue.

Taking advantage of the fact that the people in the old American military station are facing the crisis of hunger, and taking advantage of the opportunity of the explosion of the old American military station's munitions, they took the opportunity to move the military station forward.

The new military station is very close to the US military station, and this distance is completely under the coverage of artillery, but can the US artillery still fire now?

The garrison troops don't need to "make a big move" at all, they can add fuel to the fire of the old Americans and make the staunch anti-China American hardliners even more angry. If nothing unexpected happens, this should become a crucial spark that will detonate the entire United States!
