Wild North America 1846

south dakota

The state is located in the transition zone between the grasslands and the Rocky Mountains in northwestern North America. The terrain is higher in the west and lower in the east. The average altitude of the Colorado Plateau drops from an average of more than 1,600 meters to an average of about 400 to 500 meters.

The Missouri River runs through the territory and divides the state into two roughly equal parts, the east side and the west side. The eastern prairie is forest-free and is a fertile agricultural zone.

The west is the rolling high plains. The Badlands area along the White River and Cheyenne River has rugged terrain, with a length of about 160 kilometers. The southwest corner is the Black Hills area. The dome-shaped peaks are 1,100 meters higher than the surrounding plains. Harney Peak is 2,209 meters above sea level.

It is the highest point east of the Rocky Mountains in North America.

Peel, the largest city in South Dakota, is located on the plains beside the Missouri River. There are also river systems such as the Grand River, Morrow River, Cheyenne River, Bader River and White River nearby. It is full of lakes and ponds, making it a place rich in water and grass.

It's midwinter

The temperature in this area drops to a minimum of minus 10 degrees Celsius at night, and the maximum temperature during the day does not exceed 8 degrees. The remaining snow in the grasslands and dense forests is covered with snow, and the breath turns into ice.

Richard led a large group of cavalry to arrive here. Each cavalryman was wearing thick winter clothes and a velvet hat with a plush mask on his head. It looked a bit like the thunder hood used to ride a scooter in winter in later generations.

Flocked gloves.

The only thing exposed is the clear eyes, and the eyebrows are covered with white frost under the warm breath, adding a sharp and murderous aura.

All cavalrymen wear white cloaks. This flocked cloak can block the cold wind and is particularly effective in keeping warm.

Richard wears a black devil mask, which is integrated with the entire helmet. This is essentially a bulletproof mask plus a helmet produced by the system. It is actually a weapon for home travel, murder and arson, with an additional deterrent effect.

His sharp eyes suddenly showed a cold light, and he stretched out his arms to hang in the air. At this time, a bald eagle with a wingspan of 1.6 meters glided from the air, and in the blink of an eye, it landed steadily on his arm.

Under the awed eyes of all the soldiers, Richard reached out and touched the head of the bald eagle, then reached out and took out a piece of fresh meat as big as a fist and threw it in the air.

I saw that the mouth of this bald eagle was like lightning, and its sharp beak picked up the piece of meat and swallowed it into its belly in two strokes, as if it had eaten a delicious little pastry.

Observe for a moment

Richard threw his left arm in the air and threw the huge bald eagle more than ten meters in the air. Then the bald eagle flapped its wings and flew high.

"Colonel Harry Fraser, take your cavalry and follow the bald eagle, follow its direction and attack Peel City. Go ahead."

"As you command, Your Majesty." Colonel Harry Fraser responded with a respectful expression and clasped his fists.

Then he turned around and shouted to his subordinates: "Brothers of the left cavalry regiment, follow me and fight in."

After saying that, he galloped on his horse, followed closely by a large number of dark cavalry, heading towards the city of Peel, which was several kilometers away.

Countless horse hooves trampled on the solid ground under the severe cold, throwing up the remaining snow and grass clippings, mixing them into mud under the crushing force of the iron hooves, and the whole earth trembled.

View from high altitude

The more than 3,000 cavalrymen led by Colonel Harry Frazier were like sharp arrows, plunging into the weakly defended northeastern district of Peel City. Wherever they passed, gunfire rang out and people fell, making those who caught them invincible.

This city with a population of more than 42,000 was heavily defended by more than 2,500 soldiers and nearly 2,000 militiamen assembled by the US military. Defense camps and defensive trenches were set up outside the city, especially in the west and south of Peel City, where most of the troops were gathered.

.

never thought

The Kingdom of Tang Dynasty penetrated the weakly defended northeastern direction and charged in ferociously, breaking through the defense like a piece of paper.

This was due to laziness over time. Secondly, the defense in the northeast was fragile. In addition, the weather was cold and the poorly disciplined American militiamen were hiding in the house to keep warm. Where could they gather in a hurry?

on this cold winter morning

The city of Peel, which had been peaceful for a long time, rang out with crisp gunshots, followed by the sound of killing, frightened screams and flames. In a short time, the city of Peel was plunged into a bloody storm.

"Your Majesty, the deserters are here."

Lieutenant Colonel Liu Wu pointed forward with excitement. Sure enough, the outline of Peel City was looming on the distant skyline. A large number of black spots poured out from the south of the city. They fled like bereaved dogs. It was the U.S. military and some militiamen in Peel City.

The rider on the horse simply spread his legs and ran wildly, eager to escape from this land of death.

The ferocious name of the Eastern Devil Cavalry is no joke. It is widely spread in the northwest states. These young white men do not want to be captured and enslaved. They have no choice but to escape if they cannot be beaten.

Richard's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a bone-chilling coldness, and ordered in a low voice; "Colonel Gao Shiheng of the Forward Army, Colonel Zheng Laosi of the Right Army, now your prey has appeared, go hunt it to your heart's content, and let the recruits handle it."

It’s all stained with blood.”

"As you command, Your Majesty."

Gao Shiheng and Zheng Laosi saluted with respectful expressions, then quickly turned around and jumped on their horses, leading their men to attack them from left to right.

There are more wolves and less meat, so you have quick hands, but you don't have slow hands.

As a result, a cruel cavalry strangulation was performed on this bone-chilling ice and snow grassland. The shouts of charging and the gunfire of the cavalry rang out sporadically, making the ice and snow grassland dyed with patches of dazzling red.

.

There were about four to five thousand American soldiers and local militiamen who escaped from Peel City, including many city residents, who drove horse-drawn carriages and fled in a panic.

behind them

Fire, gunshots and shouts of death have spread throughout the city. The streets are littered with corpses. Oriental devil cavalry holding shining sabers are running in and out, frightening the local white people out of their wits.

By the time the white soldiers and people who fled the city discovered that a large number of Eastern cavalry were galloping on their left and right sides, it was already too late.

He ran desperately, but was cut to the ground by the cavalry chasing behind him. The red blood spilled out and dyed the remaining snow red.

He knelt down and begged for mercy, but his head was cut off by the passing cavalry, and he fell to the ground dead.

He tried to resist with a knife, but was immediately knocked over by a bullet...

The screams and one-sided massacre in the icy wasteland lasted for more than an hour, and the red-eyed cavalry poured into the city again, bringing even greater disasters to the local white residents.

Peel City is wailing in pain and struggling under the devastation of war...

noon

Richard led the Chinese cavalry brigade slowly into the city. The military band played triumphant songs and the fierce battle flags were flying. All the cavalry lined up on both sides of the street, holding up the blood-stained swords in their hands and placing them on their chests with the tip of the sword upward.

With the highest courtesy, His Majesty the King is welcomed into the city for review.

"The Kingdom of the Tang Dynasty, Wan Sheng... Wan Sheng... Wan Sheng..."

"Long live the king... long live... long live..."

The blood-stained cavalry cheered loudly, and all watched with reverence as His Majesty the King, wearing the mask of the Demon King, walked slowly. He has become a towering monument in the hearts of all officers and soldiers, sacred and inviolable.

On the streets where bright red blood could be seen everywhere, after a simple cleanup, the corpses were dragged to the roadside. The royal cuirassiers in bright armor, with their flags fluttering, escorted Wang Jia to the central square of the city.

it's here

The remaining more than 30,000 white city residents were all kneeling on the ground in dense crowds, waiting in fear for the arrival of the monarch who would influence their destiny. Uncontrollable cries could be heard from the crowd.

Richard looked at them with cold eyes without any warmth, and said: "You are all old men who have been with me for a long time. Do you still want me to teach you how to do it? Why haven't you classified them yet? You only have two days to tell the soldiers."

In the carnival of time, whatever you can seize is yours, load it on the carriage as soon as possible and prepare to return, there will be some tough battles here soon."

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. We will take care of it immediately."

"Let the boys relax. You are too tired from traveling these days. You only have two days, do you understand?"

"I understand. I am grateful to Your Majesty for loving your soldiers like your own sons. I am ashamed of myself."

Richard waved his hand, and Colonel Harry Fraser immediately went to convey the king's order, and then the soldiers cheered like a roaring tsunami, which shook the sky.

And those white residents with frightened faces were already trembling. They had no ability to resist at all and could only allow themselves to be tortured...

News of the fall of Peel City spread throughout the northwest states and the Great Lakes region almost immediately, causing great panic among local white Americans and violent social unrest.

two days later

The Tang Kingdom cavalry entrenched in Peel City attacked in cavalry regiments, passing through towns in South Dakota, North Dakota, Iowa, Minnesota and other states like wildfire, burning, killing, looting, and plundering people and supplies.

, cattle, sheep, and horse-drawn carriages, again causing great damage to the northwest states.

A large number of people, carriages, cattle and sheep gathered in Peel City, and from here they were transported to the Colorado Plateau in waves.

A total of more than 100,000 people (young women accounted for more than 80%, and the rest were white convicts), more than 100,000 cattle and sheep, and more than 8,000 carriages, escorted by thousands of cavalry, weeping all the way south.

more than ten days later

On Christmas Eve, more than 50,000 U.S. troops gathered from Kansas City and Detroit and marched toward Peel City.

The general who led this unprecedented scale of the US military was General Taylor, who had made outstanding achievements in the southern invasion of Mexico. General Taylor had been promoted to the rank of general, becoming the highest-ranking soldier in the Continental Army of the United States and a general with legendary glory.

However, Admiral Taylor is not in a good mood right now.

He was urgently recalled from Mexico. After arriving at the Norfolk Naval Base by boat, he took a train overnight to Washington, D.C., met President Polk at the White House, and then accepted this difficult military appointment.

The time left for him was too hasty. General Taylor met with Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Arthur Temple and Secretary of War George Levinson on the train, and learned more information about the Tang Kingdom from them.

The special train departed from Washington, passed through Philadelphia, then headed west into the Great Lakes region, and finally arrived at the metropolitan city of Chicago. This was already the 11th day after the fall of Peel City.

At this time, reinforcements from all over the United States were arriving continuously. The Chicago train station was full of soldiers, and it was as crowded as a vegetable market.

In order to deal with the large group of cavalry that came down from the plateau, the U.S. military had to transport the heavy troops and supplies hoarded in Kansas City to Chicago by train. It was so busy that it hit the back of the head.

Admiral Taylor arrived

What I saw was a chaotic scene. The cavalry brigade could not find the commander of the cavalry regiment, the musketeers could not find the campsite assigned to them, and troops from various places were fighting fiercely for tents and supplies, and the soldiers could not find their generals.

There will be no soldiers, which is a complete disaster.

How can such an army fight?
