"Great Bear, Great Bear..." The familiar voice awakened Shi Xiong from his contemplation. Shi Xiong turned his head and saw that it was the guy Kuima, who was originally a little angry and interrupted his contemplation. Can only helplessly grin at Kuima.

Since the expeditionary army was changed to the Burst Bear Brigade, Shi Xiong regarded the first regiment as his direct line.

There is no way, as the saying goes, "Government comes out of the barrel of a gun." Don't think that this sentence has only seven words, but it is this simple seven words that tells a truth of all dynasties throughout the ages! And how can Stone Bear, whose soul comes from later generations, not take this sentence as the motto of life?

If you want to create your own sky in this unfamiliar, primitive and backward world, you must master the most powerful armed forces in your hands!

How do you say that? A commander who does not control his own armed forces is not a good Indian...

The Expeditionary Army was made by Shi Xiong himself, and the weapons used by the Expeditionary Army were all made by him. Why couldn't he build the most powerful armed force for himself?

Therefore, the first regiment of the Burst Bear Brigade became the direct force of the Stone Bear or Gaoshu Tribe.

The soldiers of the first regiment are all composed of veterans, and they are all fighters from the Gaoshu tribe and the merged Xiaohe tribe, and the weapons, the first regiment, are also the most advanced.

Like the twenty mortar squads carried by the Western Expedition this time, all belong to the first regiment, but usually these twenty mortar squads will be scattered among the other four regiments. And the five hundred most advanced bear rifles are also equipped by the soldiers of the first regiment!

These two most advanced weapons, Stone Bear will not be put into the hands of others.

Shi Xiong doesn't care about what others think. The Burst Bear Brigade belongs to Lao Tzu, and Lao Tzu has the right to do so! Dissatisfied? If you refuse to accept it, you can also engage in a mortar or a bear rifle!

Since the first regiment is his own direct line, the head of the first regiment naturally cannot be an outsider.

Kuaima followed himself on expeditions to the Yuchis, followed by the Crees and the Powatans. The war experience is definitely the most abundant among the officers of the Explosive Bear Brigade. In addition, Kuaima is one of Shixiong's most trusted people, so it is most appropriate for him to be the head of the first regiment.

Now, besides Gao Niu, Red Cloud, and Green Skylark, the only people who can directly call Shi Xiong's name are Kuai Ma. This is enough to prove how close the relationship between the two is. Moreover, Kuai Ma and Shi Xiong are the same age, both are nineteen this year, and are already a complete adult soldier. He has come to serve as the commander of the first regiment, and no one else can say anything.

"Quaima, what's the matter?" Shi Xiong, who turned his head, asked Kuaima.

"Oh, my brothers have searched the entire fortress, and no more life is found."

"Well, it's a good job. So let's arrange for two hundred musketeers, five mortar squads, forty grenadiers, and corresponding ammunition supplies to stay here, and at the same time let the bird release the homing pigeons and let the tribe The people here drove over four armed inland river transport ships with enough cement and steel bars. A lot of cement and steel bars are needed here."

Now that it has been decided to occupy this place, then the defense here must be strengthened. However, the Burst Bear Brigade did not carry relevant materials on this westward expedition, so it is necessary to inform the family so that they can transport the materials by boat.

If it was before, the messenger would have to ride back to the Gaoshu tribe, which would take several days. But since I found Mr. Bird during the Eastern Expedition, the tribe’s carrier pigeon communication network has basically been established.

This time, the West Expedition Little Bird and the pigeon trainers trained by the Little Bird followed the Burst Bear Brigade and carried dozens of homing pigeons, which greatly facilitated communication. Without these homing pigeons, Shi Xiong would not dare to split his troops.

And this time to deliver the message to the Gaoshu tribe, using the carrier pigeon, the letter can be delivered in one day.

"You mean let's take this fortress down?" Kuaima asked excitedly.

"If such a good place is returned to the French, wouldn't we be taken advantage of?" Shixiong said with a smile, "Yes, we must take this place, and we must rely on it to attack westward, so here it is. The defense needs to be strengthened."

"Okay, I'm going to make arrangements!" Kuaima turned around and left.

"Wait first, tell the brothers who stayed, by the way, clean up the city walls and the interior of the fortress here, collect materials on the spot, and build some sturdy houses with the reinforced concrete. This will be one of us in the future. Important stronghold."

Since we are going to occupy this place, in addition to the necessary defenses, some houses similar to military camps also need to be built in the fortress. The first regiment of the three hundred left-behind soldiers, except for defensive tasks, spent the rest of the time building houses with the delivered materials.

Kill two birds with one stone.

Quickly nodded and agreed, turned and walked away quickly.

The weather has warmed up, so the soldiers of the first regiment stayed in the fortress with their tents for one night. After a good dressing up for a night, after having breakfast early the next morning, the remaining 700 soldiers of the first regiment departed.

These seven hundred people will go all the way to the west, sweeping the Chekasha tribe all the way, and finally reach the confluence of the Russian and Mi Rivers, and then go south along the east bank of the Mi River, directly behind the Chekasha's nest, and west. The Lu army fought back and forth at the main gathering place of the Chekasha.

This was a plan that had been made before the division of troops, and in the past two days, according to the news from the carrier pigeons, the West Route Army had a pretty good offensive momentum in the Chekasha territory.

Although it is active in the Chekasha territory, and the number of the Western Lu Army is far less than that of the Chekasha~lightnovelpub.net~ but the Western Lu Army holds more than the Chekasha in their hands. I don’t know how much. The advanced weapons of the modern era, the momentum is naturally like the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves.

You must know that when the expeditionary army conquered the Cree south, the Ferguson rifle was in his hand, and there were only one hundred and seventy grenades. The large tribe of people was defeated.

Now four regiments of soldiers are attacking the Chekasha tribe, which has only more than 20,000 people. It is simply an anti-aircraft cannon hitting mosquitos.

If there is any difficulty, it is that the Chekashas are full of hatred for the Burst Bear Brigade. This kind of hatred accumulated over hundreds of years has made Chekasha people crazy.

When fighting, these Chekashas full of hatred tend to fight to the end instead of fleeing or surrendering.

But it doesn't matter, Shixiong didn't intend to leave the Chekasha tribe anyway!

The stone bear needs to kill a chicken to frighten the tribes on both sides of the Mi River and even the west, and the Chekashas who have hated the Cherokee for hundreds of years are undoubtedly the best chicken...
