Super Chief

　　 Burgoin did not escape into the mountains and forests in the dark as Horatio Gates had imagined after escaping that night.

　　 In fact, let alone Horatio Gates, even Burgoin's subordinate, Colonel Barry St. Redegg, was taken aback by what Brigadier General Burgoin had just said.

　　 "Without dressing, we marched north overnight, and I will show up on the back of Benedict Arnold tomorrow morning!" Burgoin's face looked extremely hideous under the shining light of the ever-changing bonfire!

"Dare to break Lao Tzu's back, dare to surround Lao Tzu..." Burgoin gritted his teeth. "Now Lao Tzu is running out, don't even think of Ontario! Barry, I think that **** Horatio Gates will do. I thought we were fleeing west into the mountains, but we didn't do that. We were going to attack Benedict Arnold in the north by surprise. When Horatio Gates dared to divide up and block me, we took advantage of Benedict. When Arnold’s power is weak, **** him hard! Otherwise, we won’t have such a good chance when Benedict Arnold and Horatio Gates meet at dawn..."

　　 Although Burgoin, the ruthless man, was telling St. Legge about his thoughts and judgments, he was only telling them. St. Legge had no right to refuse. Because when Burgoin said these words, he had already decided to take Benedict Arnold in the north first.

　　 In fact, in terms of physical strength alone, the soldiers of St. Radegge are not as good as the soldiers of Burgoin.

　　 After all, St. Legge came all the way from the west, and there was almost no repair in the middle. Although Burgoin was surrounded by Horatio Gates, his subordinates were defensive within a few days and hardly consumed physical energy.

　　 So, when Burgoin decided to march north, more than 10,000 people immediately took action in the mountains and forests.

　　 Fortunately, most of the soldiers of Burgoin and St. Radeg are Indian soldiers. They are good at moving in the mountains and forests, so the marching speed is not slow.

　　 When the moon was sinking, the sky came to the darkest stage of the day.

　　 But in the darkness where they can barely see their fingers, more than 10,000 people in Burgoin walked in the mountains and forests most of the night, and with the help of the forest, they quietly touched the north of Benedict Arnold.

　　 And at this time, Benedict Arnold had just received news from Horatio Gates that Burgoin had escaped the encirclement with the help of reinforcements.

　　 Of course, this news came with an order to retreat southward early tomorrow morning.

　　 Benedict Arnold was not surprised at the withdrawal order from his boss. Arnold is also a highly qualified general. After learning that Burgoin was born on the run, he almost immediately realized that the three thousand people he led had become a lone army.

　　 Although his side is not very far from the main force of General Gates, it is only a few kilometers, but in this case, it is undoubtedly the safest plan to join the main force to the south.

The most important thing is that Arnold knows that the newly appointed General Horatio Gates is very unwelcome to him. In previous military operations, Gates showed his "hostility" and even "maliciousness". All made Arnold a little scared. If he didn't pay attention a little bit, maybe the Gates Commander would do something worse.

　　 This is not Arnold's random guessing of Horatio Gates's mind, because this is the fact.

In the original historical time and space, after Horatio Gates became the commander of the Continental Army in Northern New York, he showed great hostility to the victorious Benedict Arnold—perhaps out of jealousy. .

　　 In the previous Battle of Freeman Farm, Gates rejected Arnold’s proposal twice. If it weren’t for Burgo’s escape, then in seven or eight days, when Gates reported to the Continental Congress, he would not say a word about Arnold’s feats in the Battle of Freeman Farm, and Arnold would have heard of it immediately. I protested to Gates and asked him why you obliterated my achievements. As a result, Gates not only did not explain, but also used the power of the commander-in-chief to directly remove Arnold...

　　 Yes, in the original historical time and space, Arnold was so aggrieved by Gates.

　　 Even Saratoga Jade did not benefit Arnold much, because all the benefits were swallowed by Gates.

　　 This is also why Arnold will betray the Continental Army to join the British Army at a critical moment in the War of Independence, becoming the most famous traitor in American history...

　　 But anyway, Colonel Benedict Arnold, who is only thirty-six years old this year, is truly an out-and-out genius in the military.

　　 Excellent military literacy and innate keen judgment, immediately made Arnold realize that the three thousand people he led are in a very dangerous situation.

　　 So, Arnold immediately decided to move closer to the main force at dawn.

It's a pity that Arnold, who has always been known for his decisive and precise judgments, made a misjudgment this time because of the weather~www.wuxiaspot.com~ He really did not expect Burgo to be born on the run because of this ruthless man. Immediately after the day, I took advantage of the night to touch my side...

　　 So, when most of Arnold's warriors were still asleep, a brief but extremely tragic battle started suddenly.

　　 In order to block the route of Burgoin's northward withdrawal, Arnold chose to set up a blocking position in a valley. With the help of favorable terrain, the three thousand Continental Army is sufficient to resist Burgoin's northward retreat.

　　 Arnold’s choice was correct, but it was under the premise that Burgoin was surrounded. Now Burgoin escaped, and this narrow valley became Arnold's halberd.

　　 Ten thousand angry soldiers condescendingly launched a surprise attack on three thousand people, and most of those three thousand people were still asleep. The scene can be imagined.

　　 The sound of gunshots, the explosion of grenade thrown by grenadiers, the howls of the wounded, and the roars of personnel... are intertwined together, resounding through the world during the darkest period of time before dawn. The flame from the muzzle of the musket, the fire caused by the thrown torch, and the brightness of the moment when the grenade exploded, completely disrupted the darkness here.

　　 I don’t know how many bullets poured down in the darkness, how many people fell to the ground, let alone how many people were swallowed by the raging fire.

　　Countless wounded people wailed on the ground, countless war horses were frightened and galloped, countless lives became dead souls at this moment...

　　 Anyway, within these short tens of minutes, when the sky on the east had just begun to turn white, the position where Arnold was stationed had completely turned into a hell.
