Wild North America 1846

Early this morning

Four carriages driving out of Grape Valley, protected by more than 50 guards, passed through the Shanhaiguan Pass and headed towards Fangcaodi.

After arriving at Fangcaodi, the group waited at the entrance of the town.

not long after

A group of people drove out from Fangcaodi. About 80 white gunmen surrounded 6 carriages and merged with the Tang Hui team and headed towards the new town.

At the strong request of John Sutter's side, the Federation prepared for the final showdown, which took place in New Town.

Today, the situation in North America has deteriorated extremely. The war is just around the corner, and there is no room for further delay.

In Texas, the Halston rebels, who had continuous support from the United States, defeated the Mexican army on multiple battlefields and achieved clear victories.

The Mexican government has suffered successive military defeats, but it still claims that "although it has been deeply harmed by the United States, it is still willing to resolve disputes in a peaceful, reasonable and honorable manner."

in fact

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Mexican army can no longer hold out in Texas. It has lost almost all the important towns in the region and was routed thousands of miles away by the so-called rebels of the Republic of Texas.

This cannot be blamed on the incompetence of the Mexican government. What they are facing is actually a combined force of the U.S. federal army and the rebels of the Republic of Texas. They are at a disadvantage in all aspects. How can they be undefeated?

Halston, the leader of the rebels, was a student of US President Jackson in 1832. He incited local Americans in Texas to "uprising", "revolution", demand "independence", and eventually established the Lone Star Republic (Republic of Texas).

).

When the Mexican government sent troops to suppress it, the United States not only provided continuous military support, but also brazenly sent troops to directly intervene in the Texas war.

With this series of actions, we can clearly see the American black hands operating behind the scenes.

The U.S.'s expansion attempt in Texas had led to successive victories, which greatly stimulated its appetite, so it set its sights on New Mexico and California for its next expansion, and also set its sights on the British Oregon region.

U.S. President Polk openly declared during a congressional consultation in early April that the British should return to Europe and the Americans should decide on matters in the Americas. There is no doubt that we shoulder the natural moral responsibility to rule the Oregon Territory.

this speech

It is in line with the current political correctness of the "Monroe Doctrine" that the United States vigorously promotes, and at the same time it contains great ambitions, which London cannot fail to see.

In the subsequent diplomatic note, U.S. President Polk made a naked territorial claim to Britain and expressed it forcefully;

Any means possible will be taken to get the Oregon Territory...

Needless to say

For London, this is naked coercion and absolutely intolerable.

As a result, the federation came under greater pressure, with London demanding quick action.

It is reported that;

Adhering to London's will, a big figure will arrive in the near future. This also reflects that London is quite dissatisfied with the Federation's dilly-dallying actions and directly launches a big move.

And all of this put tremendous pressure on Ronald Evanson.

A hilly area about 2 kilometers away from Fangcaodi

Behind the hilly area covered with weeds, 400 Tang Hui cavalry and 300 musketeers gathered here. Each squadron was sitting on the grass. Some people were wiping and maintaining their guns, and some were wiping and maintaining their guns.

They were eating biscuits filled with dried meat. Some people leaned on their backpacks and closed their eyes to sleep, but no one whispered to each other and remained quiet.

Richard was wearing the military uniform of a British Dragoon Major. He was standing high on the hills, using a monocular to observe the convoy heading towards the new town, under the cover of a few sparse trees.

John Sutter's actions could not be hidden from anyone at all, but why did the federation keep in contact and spend more than two weeks trying to conquer John Sutter's forces?

This has to talk about the selfishness of Fangcaodi. After the battle on the American River, the reputation of the Datang Society became more and more resounding. It has already overshadowed the limelight of Fangcaodi. It has emerged as the largest force in San Francisco.

Time is infinite.

This situation was not what William Richardson wanted to see, and it also deviated from Ronald Evanson's vision, so he became unbalanced.

Special girl!

It was originally expected to use the Datang Society as a thug to charge forward, to eliminate dissidents and suppress competitors for the white shipowners of Yerba Buena and the British forces behind the scenes, thereby achieving the goal of dominating the province of Alta California, eventually establishing an independent country and restraining the expansion of the U.S. federal army.

.

Unexpectedly, the script was completely off-kilter.

The power of the Tang Society rapidly expanded after the Alexander-Madison gang was eliminated, and it took a dominant position in the federation, causing a serious imbalance of power.

If John Sartre's power is further eliminated, it will grow even more rapidly and become unstoppable.

This is absolutely unacceptable to Fangcaodi.

In the eyes of the arrogant Fangcaodi, Datang Hui is like a dog in the hands of white people. You can bite whoever you ask, instead of turning against the guests. Is that okay?

best solution;

It was Yerba Buena who took advantage of the victory to force John Sutter's forces to bow their heads. After the two sides joined forces, Yerba Buena, which represented the interests of the white people, would inevitably increase in strength and regain its dominant position in the federation.

As a result, there were repeated back-and-forth contacts between the two parties, until half a month later London could no longer hold it in and expressed serious dissatisfaction...

The situation in North America has deteriorated sharply, and there is no time to waste time.

Richard knew all of this.

But he doesn't care. If you want to talk, just talk. I just seize the time to lay a solid foundation for the Datang Society. We can talk for as long as I like. Anyway, I'm not in a hurry.

through this matter

It once again confirmed what Richard had in mind; that is, those who are not from my race must have different hearts. The close cooperation on the surface cannot cover up the huge differences and secret precautions inside. The cooperation with Fangcaodi is nothing more than a different dream.

If there is no common enemy, the boat of friendship will capsize easily.

on hills

With a calm expression, Richard put down the brass monocular in his hand and looked at the long convoy that was about to enter the new town. Suddenly, a convoy separated and headed northwest along the suburban road.

.

That was the convoy from Fangcaodi. As planned, they would use carriages to block the western and northern streets, forming a barricade and trapping all the gangsters in the new town.

The four carriages belonging to the Tang Dynasty blocked the streets on the east side, leaving only the streets in the south.

The streets in the south faced the area where Richard led a heavy ambush. As long as the white gunmen in the new town broke out from here and fled, the end would undoubtedly be tragic.

At this moment

The thunder-like sound of galloping horse hooves was heard in the distance, and hundreds of cavalry appeared in the distance. This was all the strength Fangcaodi had accumulated, with a total of about 400 people.

They will invest from two directions, break into the new town step by step, dig out all the enemies hidden in the dark, and play the role of knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger.

The carriages of Datang Hui and Fangcaodi have been modified, with thick iron plates on the front. A few of them can block the street tightly and form a solid barricade.

The musketeers hiding in the carriage relied on the carriage to fight, gradually reducing the living space of John Sutter's armed forces and dealing a heavy blow to them.

to this day

No one is stupid, neither Captain William Richardson nor the British adventurer Ronald Evanson have woken up;

The local snake John Sartre is used to being king and hegemony. Even if he dies, he will never surrender to Fangcaodi. That is purely an unrealistic delusion.

There was no other way but to fight, and so today's carefully planned military operation took place.

In the battle plan, the armed forces from Fangcaodi will be the first to invade the new town and have a head-on confrontation with John Sutter's armed forces. They will inevitably suffer heavy losses.

When he thought of this, a sarcastic smile appeared on Richard's lips.

William Richardson and Ronald Evanson had a good plan. This time they wanted Datang Hui to take the lead and take the lead, but Richard refused.

The reason is simple; the soldiers have not been adequately trained and the Tang Association is not ready yet.

As for when it will be ready?

Haha...it may take one or two months, or it may take three or four months, it depends on the specific situation.

These remarks immediately made the two people in Fangcaodi dumbfounded. Datang would give up and quit, so do whatever you want!

London is pressing hard, and special dignitaries are already on the way. If the Federation has not taken action and has not shown the necessary value, it may lose not only London's trust and support, but also its bright future.

The arrow is on the string and has to be fired.

As a result, Fangcaodi had to bite the bullet and use its best personnel to shoulder the important task of attacking the new town.

Invisibly, a huge rift has arisen between the two parties in the Federation, but the superficial intimacy is still maintained.

But Richard doesn't care, who is stupider than whom?

Damn friendship, damn cooperation, the British are all scheming bitches, they start scheming everywhere before they even get anywhere.

This kind of cooperation is really tiring. You have to beware of backstabbing and betrayal at all times. When these British guys betray you, they won't even say hello.

As long as they have strong power in their hands, both the British and Americans will try their best to win over them. The British are not the only choice.

If it is not possible to establish an independent country, then Datang will invest in the United States and become a force that rules California. It is not bad, and it will not suffer anyway.

Nowadays, the Pacific Railway has not yet been built, and the influence of the United States in the West is very weak. In the wild West, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and taking refuge with the Yankees, Richard can at least become a powerful figure in one side. Isn't it nice?

Just thinking about it

Bursts of gunfire like popping beans came from the direction of New Town. Apparently, John Sutter's side saw that their attempt failed, so they immediately began to organize white gunmen to resist, and a fierce battle broke out.
