Wild North America 1846

Only after getting along can you know that it is difficult to get the benefits of a British person, and you might end up selling yourself out.

The more this happens, the more eager Richard is to develop and strengthen his own strength, hoping to get rid of the influence of the other party. At the worst, he can bargain on a relatively equal basis instead of being blindly led by the other party.

So when the second batch of 723 Chinese immigrants arrived in the Bay Area, Richard immediately sent these people to Wudaoling Village deep in the valley for resettlement, and all of them were included in the musketeers for militarized training.

And all this was hidden from Fangcaodi.

to be honest

Richard was ready to fall out. He was ready to fight for the big piece of meat in front of him, John Sutter. He wanted to get rid of Datang Hui and have it for himself? There was no way.

More than 20 minutes later

The fierce quarrel coming from the direction of the tavern could be heard by people far away, which attracted Richard's attention. After a moment's hesitation, he waved to take several Guards officers to check.

Several white grassroots gunmen who were on guard near the tavern looked at Richard and others walking over, with a look of struggle on their faces, and then the leader of the team stood up and said, "I'm sorry, sir, please allow me to report this.

"

"Okay, let's just see if we need any help?"

"I understand, please wait a moment."

The white gunman hurriedly walked into the tavern, stayed inside for a short time, and came out after a while. He extended his hand as a guide and said, "You can go in, sir, but these gentlemen need to wait outside so as not to disturb you."

It’s up to the superiors to make decisions.”

"Okay... just wait a moment."

Richard gave the order casually, and then walked into the tavern. The scene in front of him was that both negotiators were standing across the table, looking red-faced and arguing.

It seems that the two sides have huge differences and the negotiations broke down.

Richard was not surprised at all, because the alliance's combat goal was to eliminate John Sutter's forces, seize his houses and properties, order him to surrender and disband his armed forces, and reserved the right to expel him in the next step.

And for John Sartre’s side;

The bottom line is to retain personal wealth and the armed forces of white people close to them, exit the new town in a dignified manner, return to live on the suburban farm, and enjoy the right not to be disturbed.

If you hand over all your huge wealth and weapons, why surrender?

99 out of 100 people in this world will not give up such a huge amount of wealth. This is the saying that good wealth is hard to part with.

People who have no money can generously say I will donate 100 million, but people who really have 100 million will never say that. This is human nature.

"You must surrender unconditionally, come out disarmed, and this includes Mr. John Sutter. We can ensure the safety of him and his family, and the prisoners can receive reasonable treatment."

"I can only regretfully refuse your unreasonable request. Mr. John Sartre will never agree to disband the armed forces, nor will he agree to such ridiculous demands as handing over property. Personal property is sacred and inviolable, and this is the law.

"Right, what's the difference between you and bandits?" Lawyer Adam Tatum was very sharp-tongued and retorted without giving an inch.

Ronald Evanson's attitude was extremely tough. He said proudly: "The loser has no right to make conditions. We have given Mr. John Sutter enough opportunities before, but unfortunately he did not seize them. Surrender is the only option now."

There is a way out, please don’t cling to it.”

"I'm sorry, your conditions are too harsh, I can only refuse."

"Think about it, buddy, if you don't surrender, you might all die here."

"What you said is only one of the possibilities. Maybe we defended the manor and repelled the shameless invasion of the Federation. I reiterate again that we can only accept the condition of withdrawing from the new town and will never disarm and hand over

Property, that’s ridiculous.”

"God, why do you want to go all the way to darkness?"

"Please allow me to say something, Mr. William, when someone wants to take away everything from you, death is not the most terrible ending. The people in the John Sutter Manor are bloody enough to defend their property and family."

"Well, don't blame me for not giving you a chance." William Richardson punched the table hard.

John Sutter was not stupid. The only son of William Richardson, the owner of Yerba Buena, was killed by a gunman on his estate.

This is an irresolvable blood feud. If you disarm obediently, you will definitely die an ugly death, lose all your money, and eventually your life.

Instead of doing this, it is better to fight for survival in the midst of death.

There are more than 200 trusted gunmen and more than 30 returned wilderness cowboys in the manor. As long as you use money to inspire everyone to fight to the death, they will be able to fight.

Come on, let's hurt each other!

This attitude made Fangcaodi embarrassed.

More than 480 people were dispatched in this battle at Fangcaodi. There were nearly a hundred casualties throughout the war, including 41 killed and more than 50 seriously injured.

The entire combat strength has been reduced by 1/5, and the initial offensive spirit has been lost. It would be best if the opponent can be forced to surrender, but otherwise it will be very difficult.

After all, there are too few white people and they cannot afford to die!

After negotiations broke down

They watched Joe Johnson and Adam Tatum return to the mansion, and then the solid iron door was tightly closed again, and the black holes on the wall were pointing directly out.

There was a tremor for a while, and the fierce fighting might restart at any time.

In the tavern

Instead, Richard sat down leisurely, took out a bottle of Scotch whiskey, poured himself a glass, held it in his hand and drank it leisurely, and then said, "Guys, it's time to talk."

"Li, now is not the time to chat. Let's wait until we clean up all these rats. Now we need the musketeers in the lobby to serve as the main attack. After the cannon blasts open the courtyard wall, we must concentrate all our efforts to attack and kill them.

They won't leave a single piece of armor behind, and victory is just around the corner..."

"Wait a minute, I'm talking about shit, wait a minute." Richard emphasized his tone. This tone made William Richardson suddenly startled, then he looked over with disbelief and blurted out; "Watt, what are you talking about?"

?”

"I told you, damn old guy, to wait a minute. Is it so hard to understand people? And you British monkey jumping up and down, sit down and listen to me speak clearly, okay?"

After Richard finished speaking, the tavern suddenly fell silent.

The ruthless Richard in front of them made them feel extremely unfamiliar. The chilling aura that was almost overflowing was like an invisible big hand holding his throat, and they couldn't help but sit down obediently.

"This is good, it's the rhythm I like." Richard said with great enthusiasm, then he took out a Havana cigar from his underwear pocket, cut off the cap, lit it and took a deep breath, letting the strong tobacco

The smell spread, and he nodded and continued;

"Yes, this is my favorite flavor too.

So don't waste time, let's take a look first. As of today, the armed force of Datang Hui has reached 1,677 people, including the second batch of imported 723 Chinese workers.

I think the quality of this group of people is very good, so I simply recruited them all into the musketry team and have been conducting closed training for three days.

That is to say

The armed strength of the Datang Society is 1,677, but how many can Fangcaodi have?

I'm afraid there are already less than 400 people.

This is a huge gap. The armed strength of the Datang Society is more than four times that of Fangcaodi. Even if I cut the combat power by half, it is still more than twice that of yours.

You see, the problem is so simple.

Therefore, the federation should adapt to the changes in the situation and take the Datang Association as the leader. The position of president of the federation must be mine. Do you think this request is reasonable?

Come, let’s talk, let’s all share our thoughts freely?”

What a nonsense!

If you still don’t understand what Richard means, you have really been living like a dog these past few years.

William Richardson's stinking face was so gloomy that it was dripping with water, while Ronald Evanson was so speechless that his open mouth could fit a duck egg in.

They never imagined that Richard would choose this moment to suddenly attack. This is simply...

This is so uncontractual, so despicable, so ungrateful, so infuriating, so...

William Richardson's lips were trembling and he could not speak. He just stared at Richard with a pair of murderous eyes, and Richard shrugged his shoulders indifferently, spread his hands and said;

"Look, man, what I said is all true, there is no exaggeration.

The current system of the federation has not adapted to the changes in the situation and is in urgent need of correction, and I think now is a good time.

In addition, on the issue of forming a new government, I also have some immature suggestions that I would like to discuss with you in depth.

Of course, we can wait until the battle is over to talk about it, there's no rush.

The top priority is to clarify the leadership of the federation. I think it would be better for Mr. William Richardson to resign on his own initiative and for me to take over.

In addition, I will strip Mr. Ronald Evanson of his military command.

Watching with cold eyes until now

I think Mr. Evanson's command was simply terrible, and the Greenfield attack suffered undue losses.

You are still suitable to be an adventurer. The art of military command is really irrelevant to you.

Since it is during the battle now, all the procedures are simple, as long as you two nod. We can complete the relevant procedures after the battle.

Now that I have finished speaking, do you two have anything to add?"

"Lee, why do you do this?" Ronald Evanson asked in a difficult tone.

Richard sighed softly and explained patiently; "This is because you are too selfish and unable to take care of the interests and concerns of the Datang Society. This makes me deeply uneasy. After thinking about it, I would like to ask you all to step down."

, the federation is my decision."

"What if we say no?" William Richardson said forcefully.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk... you will agree." Richard smacked his lips confidently, walked to the window and looked outside. Several guards officers had already controlled the white gunman, disarmed him and tied him up, one after another.

Advance into the tavern.

"You may be curious, I still have 700 musketeers hidden. Where will they be? Now I will tell you that they have taken control of Yerba Buena, and all those who resist will be hanged mercilessly, including the plan you have planned.

Mr. Fox, Secretary of Trade, and Mr. Dawson, Secretary of the Navy.

So tell me now, what is your decision?"
