1717 New American Empire

The British commander-in-chief Geral Mill and the French commander-in-chief François Martin did not let Ares wait too long. On the afternoon of the third day, they discovered the whereabouts of Ares and others. On the morning of the fifth day, they were able to load four

The rafts and boats for the 10,000 musketeers were made. After lunch, the 40,000 musketeers boarded the boats and rafts and began to head for Isle Royale. The God of War and others used these few days to

Many positions and traps were built.

Their remaining fifteen artillery pieces were all deployed on Isle Royale, facing the direction of the white army. Because these people were still not very skilled in the use of artillery, they could only hit people five hundred meters away.

They are all three hundred meters away from the shore. Calculated in this way, they can attack the enemies in the lake two hundred meters close to Isle Royale. And if the enemies land on the island, they also have a buffer zone of three hundred meters, so that they will not be attacked all at once.

was removed.

On the morning of the sixth day of sailing, Isle Royale was already in sight. On the lake, the passionate orders of the white commanders rang out, and the musketeers, who were still a little tired, all stood up and began to prepare for battle. This

Even if you don't row a boat, the rafts and boats will automatically dock under the influence of the current in fifteen minutes. The God of War is at the forefront of Isle Royale, waiting with three thousand of the most elite warriors.

enemy.

The noisy sound made the God of War wake up from his dream. He rubbed his eyes and saw that there was no messy morning tea like white people. He put on his clothes and directly picked up a brown Bass musket next to him, turned around and lay on the trench, observing the outside.

situation. At this time, the traces of the enemy can be seen clearly. At the artillery position, there is no need for the God of War to worry. Katami, a person who is more careful than him, discovered the enemy earlier than he did.

Ten three-pound cannons and five six-pound cannons were loaded with ammunition by the Indian warriors under Katami's order, and they began to select the front target for aiming. Katami didn't know what the concept of a meter was, but

He knew how far his artillery could hit the enemy. As soon as the twenty or so small boats filled with white people at the front entered their firing range, Katami yelled angrily:

"fire!"

"Bang bang bang..."

Fifteen solid cannonballs, large and small, were fired out with the anger of the Indian warriors. The dense small warships prevented the cannonballs from missing, except for two small cannonballs fired by three-pounders that hit the water.

Inside, there were two splashes of water, and the rest of the shells hit the white man's assault boat. However, the attack power of the three-pounder and six-pounder cannons was too small. The six-pounder cannon was okay, and could penetrate rafts and rafts.

Charge the boat.

The three-pounder was close. If it hadn't hit the white man above, I'm afraid it wouldn't have been able to accomplish anything. The white man's landing on Isle Royale would definitely be unstoppable. The God of War and others who were a hundred meters away from the shore had also done the same.

They were ready for battle. They poured gunpowder into the barrels, pressed it down, and put in the projectiles. The three thousand soldiers all began to take precise aim at the approaching white soldiers. The white soldiers also began to aim on the rafts and boats.

Ready to shoot.

Among the first batch of white warriors who are about to land, half are British and half are French. The weapons in the hands of the British are worse, and the muskets in the hands of the French are not much worse than the brown bass. However, they are not only in the

There were some bumps on the lake, and the Indians were all in the trenches. Even if the white people shot first, only a dozen Indians were slightly injured. On the contrary, it completely angered the God of War and the others.

"Fire! Free fire!"

As the God of War's order was conveyed, a large cloud of smoke arose in the trenches. This was the smoke caused by the shooting of three thousand brown Bess muskets. Unlike the white people, these three thousand bullets caused considerable damage. A total of five

The two hundred white warriors on the rafts and canoes were completely crowded together and were cleared away by bullets. But this did not prevent more than 38,000 whites from landing. After Ares and the others shot, the surrounding small islands

, sporadic gunshots also sounded.

Only then did the white people discover that there were actually enemies on these islands. However, at this time, more than 80% of the musketeers had entered the shooting range of the God of War on Royal Island and they could not escape at all. In desperation,

, can only rely on the soldiers at the back to destroy these enemies. The rafts and assault boats at the back, under the orders of the commanders, all turned around and began to head towards the scattered small islands around them.

The God of War is not worried about the Indian warriors on the island at all. They are all guerrillas ranging from dozens to more than a hundred. And with these white warriors, it is impossible to capture these people on the dangerous island.

When it comes to the ability to move in the mountains and forests, the white people are nothing compared to them. The God of War and the three thousand warriors just kept shooting and attacked the white army like a large wave of incoming zombies.

The white people were not at the mercy of others. When they arrived on land, their shooting abilities finally came into full play. In the trenches, the screams of soldiers being shot could be heard from time to time. The God of War and the others bought it from Xiao Lin

A batch of medicines and bandages were obtained. Some Indians who knew a little about field medical care quickly stepped forward, carried the injured soldiers off on simple stretchers, and then began to treat the wounds.

The God of War and the others persisted in the trenches for a full quarter of an hour. It was not until nearly 20,000 enemies completed the landing that they left the trenches and entered the forest. The remaining 3,000 soldiers were waiting for them here. The next battle,

It was left to these jungle wanderers from the Crazy Bear and Snow Wolf tribes. The white people did not take much rest and directly pursued the victory, as if they had seen victory right in front of them. As soon as they entered the forest, they were attacked by various traps.

Flying trees, pits of spikes, and their homemade nooses and animal traps made the white people cry and howl. There were not many casualties, but the whole situation suddenly became chaotic. Three thousand Indian warriors were waiting in the forest.

At this time, they immediately poked their heads out of the trees and grass where they were hiding, and used their loaded muskets to shoot at the white people. Because of the disturbance of the trap, the white people had no power to fight back, and many of them were not well hidden.

The body is completely exposed to the muzzle of the gun.

This shooting resulted in the death and injury of nearly 500 white soldiers. Including the casualties from the previous trench defense battle, the number had reached 2,000. Isle Royale was still far away, and they had only walked about one kilometer. What happened next?

The battles maintained this rhythm, and the Indians were often able to kill a large number of white warriors at a casualty ratio of one to five. After Jarre and Francois landed on Isle Royale, their hearts bleeded when they heard about the casualties.

.

The two men quickly asked the troops to come back and built a position on the shore, waiting for the arrival of the artillery troops. Due to the weight of the cannons, a twelve-pounder gun had to occupy a ship. An eighteen-pounder gun could not even be boarded.

These rough rafts and canoes

When the musketeers set off, the artillery began to prepare. It would take up to 6 hours for all the artillery to arrive. Jerre and Francois decided not to care about the vegetation on the island and directly started a carpet bombardment, using

Artillery cleared the road.

But will the God of War let them succeed so easily? Xiao Lin has long said that their only chance of survival is to prevent the white people's artillery from exerting its power. One look at the white people's plan, and it is clear that they want to wait for the artillery.

Strength. Even if it couldn't be stopped, it still had to delay the process. The fifteen artillery pieces that had been moved in advance were pushed out again, and using the cover of mountain forest vegetation, they began to shoot at the white people who were building positions.

The power of artillery is still a bit of a deterrent. The white people can't hit it and don't dare to pursue it, so they can only use ninja. The progress of the project has been repeatedly delayed, and those that were originally built were also bombarded by the artillery.

They suffered varying degrees of damage. They did not have any fortification materials and could only rely on the soil and trees on the island. They could not withstand a few cannons. Jer became angry and sent three thousand soldiers into the forest to pursue them, but they were beaten again.

come out.

Time slowly dragged on to night, and the artillery troops finally arrived. At this time, the God of War and the others could only retreat, enter the cave, and wait for the enemy's next attack. This was of course what Xiao Lin taught, and the anti-artillery cave was very useful to them.

It is difficult, but using animal caves to dig some secret burrows can still form a little defense against the front-loaded artillery of this period. Tunnel warfare, which was originally going to be famous during World War II, appeared more than two hundred years in advance this time, and it will make Bai Bai

People have tasted the pain.

The next day, the white people's planned artillery bombardment came as scheduled. The entire 1,200-meter range was covered by the fire of the Seventy-five's artillery with a caliber of 12 pounds and below. The fire started, and the God of War and the others were already intact.

After extinguishing the fire and cutting off the ditch, the fire burned to the front of the ditch. There was no burning material and it slowly extinguished. In the afternoon, the white people gathered an army of 30,000 people and prepared to finish the battle. Several Indian warriors who were on guard outside quickly entered the cave.

, report news.

The 5,500 Indian warriors who still had fighting capacity on the island rushed out of the grizzly bear caves and lynx caves that they had seized, and continued to fight guerrilla warfare with the enemy. Xiao Lin did not expect that the God of War and the others could fight to this extent, but...

The battle can only end with

It ended with the victory of the British and French forces. After all, the gap between the two sides was too big. Of course, they also paid a heavy price. A full 10,000 white troops were completely defeated. The rest of the troops were also exhausted physically and mentally. Some even feared that they would not survive for a long time.

They can no longer go to the battlefield.

The members of the former God of War tribe were naturally very sad after receiving the news. But now that they have arrived at Yanhuang Trading Company, they have to start a new life under the company's arrangements.
