Super Chief

Chapter 376: 1-way flat push

More than half of the expeditionary forces far away from the Cree have not withdrawn, but the expeditionary soldiers who have returned to the Gaoshu tribe training camp plus those who followed the stone bear before, there are now close to a thousand people.

Moreover, the two thousand recruits have been training for a month. Although they are still lacking in discipline, whether they are musketeers or grenadiers, they are already trained to skillfully operate muskets and grenadiers.

Therefore, Shi Xiong did not delay, leaving three hundred expeditionary soldiers to go home to visit relatives. These three hundred expeditionary soldiers were just withdrawn from the Cree. They need to be groomed and they need to enjoy the family happiness with their families.

The battlefield is a very **** place. During the war, I wanted to throw my head and blood, but once the battle is over, if the pressure on the soldiers is not relieved as soon as possible, then the "war syndrome" that can often be seen in future generations of retired soldiers "It is estimated that it will be revealed in the body of this group of expeditionary soldiers.

And going home to visit relatives is undoubtedly a good way to alleviate the occurrence of this "war syndrome". The company of relatives and friends can greatly dilute the emotions of these soldiers who have just come down from the battlefield.

In addition, there were more than five hundred veterans following, and the Powatans were not very powerful masters, so Shixiong was generous and let the three hundred veterans leave.

Two reinforced regiments composed of two thousand recruits and more than five hundred veterans just followed the stone bear on the journey to Powatan again.

The rise of the Powatans in about the middle of the fifteenth century, along with the rise of the Powatans, was the decline of the powerful Shawnees.

Under the leadership of the Poitan chiefs, the previous chiefs of the Poitan tribe before the seventeenth century, they all inherited the title of "Poitan" – they were eager and strong. They started from Appalachia. A remote valley in the mountains rose up, and it took decades to repel the powerful Shawnees and engulf a large amount of territory originally belonged to the Shawnees.

Finally, in the middle of the sixteenth century, the Poitans reached their peak.

If the Poitans are allowed to develop smoothly, maybe the Poitans can really develop into a large tribe that replaces the Shawnees. But at this moment, they met the Cherokee who moved south.

Although the Cherokees were driven out of the Great Lakes by the Iroquois and Delawares, the Cherokees with a population of 60,000 to 70,000 at that time were still not comparable to the Poitans, who had a population of only 20,000 or 30,000.

The Cherokees who moved south were eager to find a territory that was sufficient to stand in the fertile Appalachian Mountains, and the Poitans at the peak of integrity would naturally not allow the Cherokees to seize their territory. Thus, the war began between the two tribes.

Although the Powatans have the advantage of the right time and place, the Cherokee crossing the river is too strong, so they fought two big battles in a row, and they all ended in the failure of the Powatans. .

At that time, Chief Powatan could only give his territory to the Cherokees obediently, and then Chief Powatan led his people and clansmen to move eastward, and moved to the east of Virginia, where they lived. The area united some small local tribes, formed the Powatan Alliance, and competed with the powerful Cherokee.

Later, at the beginning of the seventeenth century, the Mayflower took British colonists to Jamestown on the north bank of the James River, and from there established the first British colony in North America.

But it is a pity that the first group of British colonists and subsequent groups of colonists who followed the Mayflower to the New World in North America in the 17th century did not get the friendship of the Poitans.

These British colonists who had just landed were blond, blue-eyed and white-skinned. In the eyes of the Poitans at the time, they looked like "white devils". Coupled with poor communication, the British colonists and the Poitans had a "thirst". A British-Poitan battle", it turned out that the crowded Poitans crushed the poor British colonists.

Regardless of the Poitan being beaten by the Cherokee, the British colonists at the beginning of the seventeenth century were really not the opponent of the Poitan.

Later things were known. Although the Poitans won their first victory in the battle with the British colonists, the Poitan chiefs at that time also began to pity these hapless British colonists.

When Chief Poitan implemented a policy of nostalgia for the British colonists, the British colonists began to gain a foothold in Jamestown, and using Jamestown as a springboard, they began a large-scale landing in the North American colonies.

However, when the last Powatan chief named Powatan died, his brother Opachanakanyu stole the position of Powatan chieftain. And because Chief Opachanakanyu, who has always been hostile to the British colonists, felt that the British had invaded the interests of the Poitans, so by various coincidences, the Poitans broke out with the British. The Second Britain-Poitan War"!

Unlike the first British-Poitan War that was crushed, in the second British-Poitan War, the British colonists who had established a firm foothold in North America inflicted heavy losses on the Poitans.

Although the British were few in number, they had guns or even artillery in their hands, which greatly offset the disadvantage of the number of people.

Therefore, over time, the Poitans who had the advantage also lost the advantage they had before. The two sides have been at odds, but in the end, the Powatans finally couldn't hold on. Even the initiator, the Opachanakanyu who stole the Powatan chiefs, became a complete one. "The charterer", the land he owns was leased to the British colonists...

More than one hundred years have passed since the end of the Second Britain-Poitan War, and the Poitans were assimilated by the British colonists.

Although the Poitans still retain a certain amount of territory and have a lot of tribesmen, the Poitans have almost become dead in name now, and even the royal court of the Poitans has no fixed place now.

Yes, the Powatans are now more like nomadic tribes in the northwest.

Although the Poitans still have more than one hundred tribes, the current Poitans are too scattered~lightnovelpub.net~ The Stone Bear led an expeditionary army across the Blue Ridge, and from the later Roano After Ke rushed out of the Blue Ridge, the vast plains ahead was the territory of the Poitan.

It's just that these territories, which originally belonged to the Poitan people, have now been planted with a large number of tobacco leaves, corn, wheat and other crops.

It was in this situation that Shi Xiong led the expeditionary force and pushed it all the way.

All the British people encountered on the road are expelled from the battlefield. Shi Xiong also didn't want to turn his face with the British now, so naturally he would not give the British a chance to turn his face.

But once they encounter the Poitan tribe, it is naturally to be subdued-under the deterrence of powerful firearms, as long as the Poitans want to survive, they will inevitably accept the fate of being conquered. Otherwise, those powerful firearms can make them ecstatic...
