The last governor of New Orleans was Francois. Not only was he the governor of New Orleans and the entire French Louisiana, he was also an earl in France. Great nobleman.

However, he ran back to France more than a year ago. Although he is the emperor of New Orleans and even the entire French Louisiana, his jurisdiction is even larger than that of the French mainland, but this guy is a real man. Of fear of death.

　　 Seeing the French army retreat on the European battlefield, François was already ready to run away.

　　 As soon as the Fontainebleau Agreement was signed, he ran back to France with the wealth he had scoured in the New World over the years.

　　 However, Major General Claire, who is also a nobleman and has the status of a baron, couldn't leave. If he removes all the French police stationed in New Orleans, the city will immediately be messed up.

　　 After all, the more than 10,000 French people living in New Orleans are not good birds. Their status in the French mainland is just a pariah.

　　 Once these untouchables lose control, they will immediately rebel.

　　 So, General Claire stayed. After all, New Orleans is still in charge of transporting supplies to the military fortresses and fortresses along the Mississippi River and the Ohio River. Once he withdraws, then the French people stationed along the Mississippi River will completely become undesired children. .

　　As a general, Claire can't do anything to leave the lower part behind.

　　 Since the signing of the Fontainebleau Agreement at the end of the previous year, General Claire has stayed in New Orleans.

　　 Lieutenant Alphonse knew about these things, and similarly, the stone bears from later generations also knew very well.

Therefore, on the way from the pier to the fortress, Alfons asked Stone Bear some things about New Orleans through the sidekick. After Stone Bear answered all of them, the only doubts in Alfons’ heart were also thorough. Dispelled, the chat and laughter with this big man also increased.

　　 The stone-built steps extend from the riverside dock below the small hills to the entrance of the fortress on the top of the hill. This step road is the only regular road in the entire fortress.

　　 This road is not long. After a group of people walked for a short time, they entered the fortress through the fortress gate wrapped in heavy iron.

　　 From the outside, this fortress is very majestic. After all, the fortress is located on the top of this small hill, and the blue-gray city walls make this fortress look so majestic and indestructible.

　　 But when Stone Bear really walked into this fortress, he discovered that this fortress was no different from the European castles that he had seen in various materials in his previous life.

The fortress is not large, it is an irregular circle, and the area is estimated to be only more than ten acres. In other words, the diameter of the fortress is only more than 100 meters, and this area is not even as good as the Gaoshu tribe’s residence. Half as large.

　　 And the city wall doesn't look as tall as it can be seen from a distance. The stone bear estimates that the city wall is at most three meters high. However, the city wall was quite thick. After getting closer, Shi Xiong stood under the city wall and could clearly see the four large-caliber fortress guns and more than a dozen guns with much smaller calibers erected on the top of the city wall.

　　The four fortress cannons are all set up on special fortresses. This specially built fortress can well resist the huge recoil generated by large-caliber fortress guns. As for those artillery with smaller calibers, they were all erected directly on the city wall.

　　Before the flower bomb was developed, these artillery fired solid projectiles. Although the four largest Valerian fortress cannons fired projectiles that are only a circle larger than a big apple, no one can underestimate the power of this artillery.

The cannonball propelled with black powder is far from comparable in power to the smallest 20mm cannon of later generations, but in this era, this fortress cannon plus those small-caliber artillery "artillery" Group" is also enough to make most of the enemies intimidated.

　　 Generally speaking, the defense of this fortress is very good. The excellent terrain combined with the thick city walls, with so many artillery on the walls, this kind of defense is enough to easily resist a thousand-person attack.

　　 However, the fortress inside the city wall does not look so beautiful compared to the highly defensive city wall.

Although Stone Bear has not been to Europe in the previous life, he has seen the interior of European castles in many materials, so in his imagination, this Okron fortress should be similar to those European castles in the previous life, with strong exterior walls. , Luxurious interior

　　 As a result, Shi Xiong was extremely disappointed in reality.

　　 This seemingly extremely strong military fortress, the internal situation looks extremely bad.

Except for a building built of stone inside the fortress, no solid stone buildings can be seen in other areas. Most of the buildings are built of wood. Stone bears even see many beasts. A tent built by leather.

Moreover, the construction of these wooden houses in the fortress is not planned. There are two roads that can barely be called "streets" in the entire fortress. All other places are of this kind, which will be deemed as "violating regulations" in later generations. Building" wooden houses and tents.

　　The chaotic houses made the interior of this fortress look extremely chaotic. Outside of the row of wooden houses near the stone building, the other houses Shixiong thought they should be demolished!

　　 Shixiong estimated that the stone building should be the so-called City Lord’s Mansion, and the neat row of wooden houses next to it might be a military camp.

　　 The chaos inside the fortress greatly exceeded Shi Xiong's expectations. Compared with these chaotic buildings, Shi Xiong couldn't stand the smell inside the fortress.

　　 If he hadn't walked into this fortress himself, Shi Xiong would really think he had walked into a huge dry toilet.

Without him, the entire fortress is filled with a smell that is difficult to describe in words, the smell of feces, the smell of urine, the strange smell of people who have not bathed for a long time, and a large number of horses, cattle, and other livestock and poultry. Various flavors mixed together

　　 Shixiong felt that the pigsty in his hometown when he was a child smelled a hundred times better than the fortress!

　　 Compared with the majestic appearance of this fortress, the situation inside the fortress is really disappointing.

　　 If Shixiong can still control himself by virtue of his powerful self-control, then many people in the tribe can't help but start retching. Even Pieno, who had been outside for almost a month, turned pale.

　　 Alphonse said with some embarrassment: "Chief Strong Bear, this is really no way. Oclone Fortress is so big and there are so many people living in it, so it tastes like this."

　　 Ishikuma suffocated his breath and said, "It’s okay, it’s okay, we can bear it."

　　 After saying this, Shi Xiong couldn’t help thinking, this Alcron Fortress is really a donkey dung egg, in contrast, the backward Indian tribes are more like heaven.

　　Shi Xiong They disliked the environment in Okron Fortress. The French people living in the fortress were surprised by Shi Xiong and the others.

　　 It can’t be said that people who can cross the ocean from France to the New World are not good people, but ten shots were taken out, and at least nine of them were not wronged.

　　 This group of French people can live in the fortress, they are already very tough, regardless of men and women. But even they have never seen Native American Indians lining up with guns.

　　 Therefore, these gunmen of the Gaoshu tribe have become an out-and-out Western scene in the eyes of these French people.

　　 Of course, they also saw those Indian warriors who retched, and the expressions on their faces were naturally a little unnatural.

　　 Although public toilets appeared in Rome as early as the ancient Roman era, modern public toilets and toilets will not appear on a large scale in Europe until the end of the eighteenth century. Therefore, although Europeans do not urinate and defecate as they did in the Middle Ages when solving personal problems, they are still not much better than they were back then.

　　Okron Fortress is a military fortress, and it is on the top of a mountain, so the French who live in the fortress almost never leave the fortress except for going downhill to farm and fish. After all, at this time, wild beasts and natives are very dangerous.

　　 It is this almost closed environment that makes this fortress completely turned into a large open-air dry toilet.

　　 Although these French people living in the fortress are not able to urinate and defecate like the Europeans in the Middle Ages, the corners behind the house are usually where they excrete.

If the population in the fortress is smaller, then it is acceptable, but the point is that there are more than 500 people living in this fortress with an area of ​​at most ten acres, and the things that so many people excrete every day gather together. But it's really spectacular

However, as the saying goes, "I enter the abalone restaurant, and I will hear it for a long time without knowing that it will stink into the orchid room, and I will not smell it for a long time." Now this military fortress built by the French with a lot of effort has become a military fortress. After the "Abalone House", the French who lived in this fortress all year long smelled the smell here, and naturally they couldn't feel anything.

　　 But outsiders really can't stand it.

　　 Only then did Shi Xiong understand that when he interrogated Constantine, why this guy said that he really didn't understand the situation inside the Oclone Fortress.

　　 It is estimated that this guy has never been in since he entered the fortress once.

　　 This thing is really not a joke, the French who live in the fortress enter the fortress to save their lives, and the French who live outside the fortress enter the fortress, it is really terrible.

　　 The warriors in the tribe ignored those French people who pointed and pointed. At this time, their hearts are pretty beautiful. Although the smell here is unpleasant, after all, this is the first time to show up in front of these Vasichus with a musket, and from the eyes of those Vasichus, the warriors of these tribes can I clearly felt an emotion called "shock".

　　Of course, these fighters didn't know that the shock of these French people came more from the rules of the fortress.

You must know that Fort Okron is the largest military fortress in Ohio. The rules of this fortress are very strict. It is difficult for outsiders to enter this fortress. Even if they are allowed to enter the fortress, the number of people who enter it is also very difficult. There must be no more than ten.

　　 This is to prevent enemies from entering the fortress and attacking from within.

　　The terrain of the fortress is difficult and the defense is strong. It is very difficult to break through the fortress from the outside.

　　 But if an attack is launched from within the fortress, then this fortress will be hard to protect.

　　 A powerful empire often begins to disintegrate from within.

　　 The French clearly knew this truth, so they laid down such a rule when the fortress was established.

　　 But now, more than forty outsiders have walked into the fortress together, and they are still carrying muskets. This is simply subverting the perception of these French people.

　　 Once these people make chaos in the fortress, let alone their guns, they only need to spread out and set fire, which is enough to paralyze the fortress.

　　 It is the end of winter, and the north wind is strong. Almost all houses in the fortress are made of wood. Once a fire breaks out, the consequences are simply disastrous.

　　 Of course these French people were shocked.

　　 However, it seems that these gun-bearing natives didn't seem to be confused. They walked neatly, passed the gate of the fortress, and then walked along the street towards the city lord's mansion.

　　 The street in the fortress is not wide, only about three meters wide, but this street is already the most important traffic artery in the entire fortress.

　　 One end of this street is connected to the gate of the fortress, and the other end leads to a small square in the middle of the fortress. On both sides of this street, there are wooden houses of different heights and shapes.

　　 Many sturdy-looking French men stood on the street watching this group of Indians carrying muskets, and many women with heavy makeup stood behind the window and pointed at these people.

　　 Especially after seeing the stone bear, these women's eyes brightened like small light bulbs.

　　 Such a majestic and burly man, these women have never seen them~lightnovelpub.net~ They probably never expected that there would be such a majestic man among the indigenous people.

　　 So, one by one, these women wished to step forward and get into the chest of this big man.

　　 Yes, most of the women living in the fortress are technical girls

　　The team walked inward along this street and soon came to the small square.

　　 This small square is the only open space in the fortress. The area is very small. The stone bear estimates that it is more than 200 square meters at most. However, this square is like other places in the fortress. There is no ground paved with bricks and stones. The ground is full of loess, just like a yard for drying grain in the Huaxia countryside.

Regardless of the cities of the European and American countries in later generations, all of them are unreasonably beautiful, especially those large and small squares in the city are even more beautiful, but in this era, whether it is Paris or London, almost all city squares They all look similar to rural farms, the only difference is the size.

　　 This small fortress square is the same, with a small area and poor ground, but even so, this small square is also the most lively place in this fortress.

　　 Compared to the street when they came, there are more French people gathered here, including men, women, old and young. Of course, all the soldiers stationed in the fortress also came out, standing in line at one end of the square.

　　 In addition to these poor civilians and soldiers, Shi Xiong also saw more than twenty people whose dresses were clearly different from those of civilians.

　　 Seeing these people, Shi Xiong knew that these guys are his food
