1717 New American Empire

Chapter 111 Hessian mercenary group, the battle is coming

The bustling Boston ushered in a group of huge battleships today. The battleships were in the style of Galenic ships, with two flags hanging on them. One was naturally the British flag. The other, hung higher than the flag, was black.

The flag has a bow and arrow symbol in the center. This kind of flag is no stranger to people in Boston. All Hessian mercenary gathering places in the colony hang the same flag. The colonial governor, Charles Mill, brought his confidants

Major General Kamal arrived at the port early.

As soon as the warships docked, Charlie and Kamal greeted them. A middle-aged soldier wearing a British military uniform and a tough and stereotyped look walked down first. Looking at the style of the military uniform, he turned out to be a lieutenant general. Seeing Charlie leave

Coming over, the lieutenant general also softened his expression a little, a smile appeared on his face, and walked towards Charlie.

"Lieutenant General Adolf, welcome to your arrival."

"Governor Charlie is so polite. I didn't expect you to bother coming to greet me in person. I am deeply honored."

"Haha, General Adolf is too polite. The carriage is already waiting outside. Let's go first. I have prepared a welcome banquet for the general."

"Here, my subordinates haven't settled down yet."

"Don't worry, Major General Kamal will be responsible for assisting your troops to rest in the military camp. We have prepared food supplies."

"Then, please trouble Major General Kamal."

"Your Majesty, Lieutenant General, you're welcome. Please go ahead."

The three of them gathered together to chat for a few words. Lieutenant General Adolf, who was the first to disembark, called a man dressed as a major general and left with Kamal. And Adolf, together with Charlie, boarded the carriage at the Governor's Palace.

, walked to the Governor's Mansion. There, there was a banquet attended by everyone in the Charlie faction, specially prepared to welcome them. After the two left, three people came down from more than a dozen large Galenic ships at once.

Wanhessen mercenary.

The expressions of the six scouts hiding in the dark suddenly changed. Three of them slowly walked together and began to chat in low voices.

"Damn it, so many people are here. What should we do? Should we evacuate immediately? Mr. Logan is still waiting for news from us."

"Don't worry, we need to find out the weapons of these people. As long as it's not too outrageous, the company is still sure. Let's get closer and spread out."

"good!"

As soon as the words fell, three ordinary white men began to secretly approach the ship that was unloading the cargo. The actions of the three men were very normal. If they were not elite agents, they would not have been able to tell that they wanted to spy on intelligence, and they would have thought that they were just three gangsters wandering around.

get closer to a certain distance, in which

A young man found that there was no one at the top of a house, which was perfect for observing the situation at the port. He made a few secret gestures, and the three of them slowly walked into the alleyway. There was no one in the alleyway, and the three of them looked at each other.

, while rolling up his sleeves to reveal an ejection device.

Ding ding ding, after three almost inaudible sounds, the three flying claws hooked the eaves of the five-meter-high house. The three of them jumped lightly and stepped on the wall. The flying claws began to shrink.

With the guidance, the three of them went to the roof in a minute and found a suitable angle to lie down. The people in the house did not find anything during this process. One of the men took out a double-barrel small bag from his backpack.

He used the telescope and began to observe the situation in the port more than 300 meters away.

In this era, the white people in Europe simply cannot produce such powerful props, so of course these people are Wei Xiao's men. Moreover, they are not ordinary soldiers, they are independent from the Yanhuang Trading Company's escort team one to nine.

Soldiers from the Night Owl Special Reconnaissance Battalion. Because they had stayed in Boston for a year or two, the three of them were transferred out and temporarily joined Logan, who was responsible for collecting intelligence on the British colonies, to carry out this secret mission.

The cause of the matter starts a month ago. Xiao Lin is really a bit worried about the four women of the Charles family. Xiao Lin, who has no idea of ​​increasing the number of wives, is really a little afraid of these well-developed blond women.

A beautiful girl with blue eyes. After several days in a row, Xiao Lin was finally caught by James. He thought he was going to cause trouble, but he didn't expect James to give him a piece of information.

James' father, Alger, received a piece of news not long ago. He believed that this news was very important to Xiao Lin. Therefore, he immediately sent a few confidant riders to the company's first town and handed the information to them at high speed.

James was handed over to Xiaolin. This news was that Governor Charles Mill asked for help from the British mainland and requested a large number of Hessian mercenaries.

Let’s talk about Hessian mercenaries here. “Hessian mercenaries” in English usually refer to those German regiments that served in the British army in the 18th century. During the American Revolutionary War, Frederick, Lord of Hesse-Kassel

II and other German lords raised

Tens of thousands of soldiers served as reinforcements for the British combat forces in North America. About 30,000 of these people were recruited. They were called "Hessian mercenaries" because 16,992 of the 30,067 mercenaries were from Hesse-Ka.

Serge.

Most of them are conscripts, criminals, gamblers and bankrupts. Military pay is very low, and many troops can only meet the needs of food and clothing. Most of the officers have participated in some wars on the European continent. According to the time, they should be the successors to the Austrian throne.

Veterans of the war and the Seven Years' War, these people inherited the consistent bravery and loyalty of the Germans, and some Hessian mercenaries also showed strict record keeping and excellent military skills.

Now speaking, the combat effectiveness of the Hessian mercenaries is not comparable to the army composed of the British population. At least, in terms of combat experience, they can't catch up. Xiaolin is not afraid of the white troops in the colonies, nor is he afraid that there are almost thousands of them now, scattered

There are Hessian mercenaries in various places. But if a huge number of Hessian mercenary groups come, it will not be good news for the company. As long as there are 20,000 Hessian mercenaries, equipped with new muskets and artillery, they will attack

Companies, companies will be very dangerous.

The same weapons and equipment, in the hands of colonial militias and Indians, and in the hands of elite Hessian mercenaries, can exert completely different powers. At that time, I am afraid that Xiao Lin will have to mobilize the entire population to join forces.

The only thing is to join the war. As for moving the company's location, it is now impossible. After many experiments, Xiao Lin no matter where he starts traveling in the 21st century, the place he finally returns to the American continent is the same. The current place is not only

We can't give up, maybe it will become the capital in the future.

Three elite Night Owl warriors lay on the roof for a day before finally determining the equipment of these 30,000 Hessian mercenaries. Fortunately, the British may not want to spend too much money, so they did not equip them with the best equipment.

The equipment. Judging from the style, it is the 17th century weapon used by the colonial troops. However, I just don’t know if Charlie is willing to spend the money. The brown bass musket and the previous artillery can be copied by the colonies, so they can be used at full strength.

, sufficient quantity can be produced in at most half a year.

The Night Owl warriors left the roof at night and returned to a hotel. However, the other three spies from France did not stop. At this time, they were planning to enter the military camp to check the information of the Hessian mercenaries. And

Compared with Night Owl's warriors, these three

The spies were so rubbish. Although they got a lot of information, they were discovered by others. Under the siege of the Hessian mercenaries, no one ran out. After that, some British troops began to appear in various hotels.

During the process, search to see if any strangers have arrived.

At this time, the three Night Owl warriors had already packed their bags and left Boston. In a newly built small bar in the countryside of Boston, they met Logan disguised as the boss. Why are the French here?

Because they suspected that these Hessian mercenaries were prepared by Charlie. During the previous encirclement and suppression operations, the armies of both sides had a lot of friction. Most of the spoils were taken away by the French. The British could only drink.

Had some thin soup.

The British were very dissatisfied with this, and even almost had a fight. Fortunately, the commanders of both sides were restrained, otherwise they would have started fighting directly. Coupled with the previous grudges, the conflicts between the two sides were almost obvious. And as the

The Yanhuang Trading Company completely crippled the Adams family, and the British colonial strength also suffered a considerable loss. Without these 30,000 Hessian mercenaries, the French would not be a match for them in a fight.

The French had begun to prepare for war, planning to drive away the British in one fell swoop and seize the colonies. Unexpectedly, suddenly, 30,000 elite Hessian mercenaries arrived. As soon as they received the news, the French restrained themselves.

Young Master, prepare to re-plan and make a decision before taking action. Unexpectedly, none of the three elite spies sent out this time came back. Now, most of the French people believe that these Hessian mercenaries are here just for them.

The French started a two-pronged plan. First, they strengthened the strength of the colonial army and strengthened their vigilance to prevent British sneak attacks. Second, some people also brought huge amounts of money and began to contact Adolf Hessian mercenaries, who recognized money but not people.

Maybe we can pull these people over

.However, they may not have thought that the price of the British dispatch this time was too high. The dozen Galen warships were part of their reward. As a brand-new warship produced by the British who are still the overlord, for the masters behind Adolf

, the temptation is too great.

In any case, after the Hessian mercenaries landed, the atmosphere of the entire North American continent changed. The air was full of the smell of gunpowder, and a fight could start at any time. Xiao Lin also shifted his focus to the military and returned to the 21st century.

I chased the engineers every day, hoping to equip the troops with light machine guns before the war started.
