Monongahela in the autumn of 1768.

Monongahela at this time has completely changed, and the farmland that was previously a piece of land has been completely cultivated at this time.

If you look at it from a high altitude, the mature corn at this time has completely turned the southern half of Monongahela into a golden carpet.

And in the northern half of the valley, that is, to the north of the small river where the stone bear secretly sneaked into, it is still green. Hundreds of bison are leisurely gnawing on the grass on the ground, seizing all the time for the coming winter Paste fat.

This year is another bumper year. The summer harvest a few months ago and the autumn harvest just around the corner will further fill the granary of the Cherokee tribe.

This fall is also the last fall of the Royal Court in Monongahela. When the autumn harvest is over, the Cherokee’s royal tent will soon be moved out of here, before the arrival of winter, completely moved to the west of the Mi River.

At that time, the entire Monongahela will become a piece of fertile land and pasture, where the tribe will be left to cultivate here, while protecting this beautiful valley and plain.

"Looking at you like this, is there any good news from Bighorn Sheep and Kuai Ma?" Hong Yun asked Shi Xiong with a smile.

At this time, the two of them were standing on the mountainside of a mountain to the west of Monongahela, overlooking the Monongahela Valley, which is golden on one side and still green. This beautiful scenery is refreshing.

"Well, the bighorn sheep just sent the news from the front line. Kuaima and they are making good progress. When I received the news, the soldiers of the First Division were taking over the Arapaho territory. It is estimated that at this time, the entire Arapa The Huo family’s site has almost been taken over, right."

"The first division is progressing so fast? I thought I would have to wait until next year to beat the Arapajo down."

"Hehe, the progress of the First Division is indeed very fast. I did not expect that the two guys, Black Wolf and Kuai Ma, would use the hot air balloon to such a degree. The angel of the gods... Thinking of using a hot air balloon to pretend to be a messenger of the gods, they actually promoted the hot air balloon as a messenger of the gods. But this is really good. At least the three tribes that the first division needed to conquer did not have many dead people. This is the most important thing. ."

Hong Yun also smiled, "Yes, when I first saw a hot air balloon, I also firmly believed that this was the messenger of the gods! The gods are on top, and this kind of thing can fly in the sky. This is really too human. Shocked."

"Yeah, when I created the hot air balloon, I originally wanted to do high-altitude reconnaissance and use the hot air balloon to carry out high-altitude bombing in weather conducive to flying, but I didn't expect this thing to look like in the eyes of other tribes. It's so powerful."

After a pause, Shi Xiong's gaze from the distance was closed, and he looked at the red cloud beside him and said: "However, compared to the first division, the progress of the second division and the third division is not satisfactory. Both the Manche and the Apache are much stronger than the Osages. However, the Comanche and the Ults are old enemies, and the second and third divisions have a good relationship with Ults. If Ults can send troops If you help the Second Division and the Third Division, then the progress in the southwest direction will be much better. It's just..."

Shi Xiong sighed.

He considered the difficulties in the southwest, but did not expect it to be so difficult.

This difficulty comes not only from the local tribes, but also from the weather.

The Cherokee had long lived in the Great Lakes region, where the temperature was low. Later, although it moved south to the Appalachian Mountains, the temperature there was lower than that in the southwest, and both the Great Lakes region and the Appalachian Mountains belonged to that kind of relatively humid region.

When the soldiers of the Second Division and the Third Division came to the southwest, the high temperature and drought here made many soldiers unbearable. The dissatisfaction of the British during the War of Independence in historical time and space soon appeared in the Second and Third Divisions.

Even in order to avoid the hot summer, the Second Division and the Third Division had to retreat. But even so, the non-combat attrition caused by the incompatibility has reached an alarming number.

The two divisions add up to 16,000 people, and the death toll caused by the inadequacy of the water and soil alone is as high as more than 700 people, which is almost a 5% attrition!

You must know that since the establishment of the Expeditionary Army, the Grim Bear Army has never seen so many attritions. Even when fighting against other tribes, so many people have never died.

But this expedition to the southwest resulted in so many reductions in soldiers. How could Shi Xiong not feel distressed?

Compared with this distress, Shi Xiong's self-blame was even worse.

Others don't know the difference of regions, but how can someone whose soul comes from later generations doesn't know how serious the difference of regions is?

Unfortunately, he forgot this when he was considering an expedition to the southwest...

Therefore, the more than 700 soldiers who died were not so much dead in the hands of the weather as they were due to the negligence of the stone bear.

Although the stone bears gave the Grim Bear Army two to two and a half years to conquer that large tract of land when the plan for the Western Expedition was first formulated, and it is still very early to that time, but this sudden attrition is really It makes Shi Xiong very distressed.

Hong Yun patted Shi Xiong on the shoulder and exhorted: "Dali Xiong, I remember a sentence you once said very clearly. At that time, you said, as long as it is a war, where are the undead? Now this situation is coming, I hope you Can accept this."

As the high priest of the tribe, Hong Yun is naturally qualified to know all the information on the front line. Therefore, she is also very aware of the difficulties in the southwest direction. She also knows how heavy the burden of the 700-odd Grim Bear soldiers who died is to the chief ~ lightnovelpub.net~ Great Bear, if it doesn't work, change defense! The third division, which suffered a serious loss, was switched to the Osages, Kiowas and Arapajos. The first division over there has already been defeated. Chora Klulu is busy taking over. We can completely let The third division cooperated with Chora Klulu on duty there, while the first division went southwest. Don't forget, the First Division also has our air force. And in the past six months, we have built twelve hot air balloons. We can leave six hot air balloons to the Third Division, and all the others will enter the southwest. "

Shi Xiong nodded silently, he also considered this method.

After all, the winter in the southwest is not the winter here. The winter there is very warm. Except for the coldest month of the year, which is a little bit colder for half a month, fighting can be carried out at other times.

"Okay, I will call the officers of the staff to discuss this plan. If feasible, send the first division now! And our air force!" Shi Xiong said loudly.
