Super Chief

Chapter 354: Hank standing firm

Shixiong no longer presides over the training of two thousand recruits. This kind of job can be done by the bone spear, the mad cow, and the fierce dog. As for the live ammunition training of the musket and grenadier, there are a few of them. There is no problem.

Five hundred veterans plus the other expeditionary soldiers who will come back in the future will be one-to-one training. Training such a small number of recruits is absolutely no problem.

The main reason is that Major Adria Fogg is here. The British Army major who replaced Major Hank to trade refined salt with the Gaoshu tribe not only brought a lot of raw materials that the stone bears now urgently need, but also Letter from Major Hank.

Since Major Hank left the New World and returned to England more than half a year ago, he began to make new textile machinery according to the drawings provided by Shixiong, and he also opened a textile factory.

It is very difficult to promote the new type of textile machinery. Therefore, the best promotion method is undoubtedly to establish a textile factory by yourself so that those bosses who need textiles can see with their own eyes how efficient the new type of water-driven textile machinery is. The quality of cotton yarn and cotton cloth produced by this kind of textile machinery is so good.

In this era, unlike later generations, the most valuable things are all handmade. In this era, handmade represents backwardness and low quality. Products produced by large machines are synonymous with high quality and high efficiency. .

In the words of Major Hank’s letter, the bosses who came to visit saw the spectacular scenes during the production of the new textile machinery and the high-quality products, all of them went crazy, ordering new textile machinery. Like a snowflake, he almost buried Major Hank...

Major Hank is not the Hargreaves who invented the Jenny spinning machine, nor the Ackert who invented the hydro-spinning machine, nor the Clompton who invented the mule machine in the future. Major Hank is the dignified Royal Army of the British Empire. The major officer of, is far from being comparable to civilians like Hargreaves, Arkright, and Crompton.

Although Major Hank was not born in a noble family, his family is still a bit powerful in Southampton. Coupled with the fact that Major Hank has served as a soldier for so many years, he is also considered the number one person in his hometown of Southampton.

And Major Hank also made a lot of pounds when he operated refined table salt, so after he established this textile factory in his hometown of Southampton, no one dared to come and find fault.

For example, the spinning mill established by Hargreaves, who invented the Jenny machine, was burned down by those home textile handicrafts, and his invention patent for the Jenny machine was taken away by others. This has never happened to Major Hank.

Just kidding, when Major Hank opened a textile factory after returning to Southampton, he also hired more than a dozen security personnel who had retired from the Royal Army of the British Empire according to what Stone Bear had told him.

These security personnel are all serious veterans, and they have not retired for a long time. Not only are they fierce, they are also particularly capable of fighting. Relying on the handicraftsmen in the family workshops, there are 20 or 30 people who are not the opponents of these more than a dozen strong men.

In addition, because of the increase in orders, a large amount of steel is needed to make new textile machinery. With these orders, Major Hank has a pretty good relationship with Southampton and even some steel tycoons in London.

Now people say that there is another tycoon in Southampton.

Of course Major Hank knew who gave it all, so when he stabilized, he immediately followed the instructions that Stone Bear had previously confessed, and tried his best to find all kinds of supplies for the big man on the other side of the ocean.

Hank's letter said that many materials have been found, and now we are waiting to get more, and then get a ship to bring it over.

In this regard, Shi Xiong is not in a hurry. Now he has enough weapons and equipment to deal with the surrounding Indian tribes. As for the independent war in the future, it is still early. The work of the past few years is enough for Shi Xiong to hoard enough raw materials through Major Hank's hands.

Although Major Adria Fogg succeeded Major Hank, this guy is a slick character. He also knows his immediate boss, the Colonel Jones stationed in Jamestown, who has passed these for more than a year. How much profit has been made from refined table salt, the most important thing is that through these refined table salt, Colonel Jones has been in contact with many domestic nobles.

This kind of personal connection is the most important thing. It is something that cannot be bought with pounds.

It is for this reason that Major Fogg attaches great importance to the salt trade with the Gaoshu tribe without any special explanation from Colonel Jones. In any case, he can also get a lot of benefits from the salt trade.

The last time Major Fogg came, Stone Xiong and the expeditionary army were tossing on the territory of the Cree, he naturally did not see this big man. After coming to the Gaoshu tribe this time, he heard that the Cree tribe with a population of 100,000 in the south was actually conquered by this big man, and Major Fogg was also very surprised by this incident.

As an army major who has lived in the New World for several years, Major Fogg naturally knows how difficult the native Indians are. A Poitan with only twenty to thirty thousand people can make the Royal Army of the British Empire a headache, not to mention a large tribe with hundreds of thousands of people.

And this big man was able to conquer a large tribe of 100,000 people in less than half a year. This ability is no one.

Major Fogg naturally did not know that the Gaoshu tribe had a large number of musketeers~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and did not know that Stone Bear still had a large number of grenadiers in his hand. So he didn't know what method the big man in front of him used to conquer a huge tribe in such a short period of time.

It's better to say something about the musket. The stone bear, which can be called a strategic weapon in this era, will never let those European colonists know about it. Shixiong knows very well that, regardless of the fact that the British are doing a good deal with him, but once the news of the bullet-throwing barrel is revealed, the British will definitely slap them over immediately. They must find a way to get the bullet-throwing barrel. .

With the shrewdness of the British, when they knew that there was a weapon with an effective range of up to six hundred meters and more powerful than a naval gun, they would definitely get this weapon at all costs.

Ask yourself, if you are British, you will do the same.

A powerful, small and exquisite weapon plays a decisive role in the foreign strategy of the entire country.

Therefore, before the trading team led by Major Fogg arrives at the High Tree Tribe, all live ammunition training will be temporarily suspended.
