Super Chief

Chapter 499: Guards

There is a famous saying in the original historical time and space-to be kind to the enemy is to be cruel to oneself.

This sentence was once said by Napoleon, and also by the founding grandfather.

A very simple sentence, but it shows the cruelty of war.

There is no doubt that war, something that almost accompanies the history of human development, has been using its blood and violence all the time to prove that it is the ultimate violent means in human history since the moment it appeared.

The situation in the Southwest battlefield made Shi Xiong realize that he seemed to be a little weak before. It seems that since the expedition team's southern expedition to the Yuchis and the expeditionary army's southern expedition to the Kerry's first battle with the bighorn sheep, my heart seems to have become soft.

This is not a good sign.

Although Stone Bear once used reasons such as "cannot kill more native Indians" or "preserve as many native Indians as possible", it might be the subsequent collapse of the Cree and the Powatans. Weak retreat and the Osages were frightened by the hot air balloon and directly kneeled down to make themselves think that their troops could be invincible, but the facts proved extremely cruel that since they embarked on the path of war, there should be no “kindness "this phrase.

There is no benevolence and kindness in war, nor can it be right or wrong. War is a simple war, and all means are used for their own interests. If you can win the war, then you will naturally have everything about the enemy. Similarly, if you lose the war, everything you have will become the enemy's thing.

This thing is as simple as that, and one plus one equals two!

Although the process is cruel, the more cruel things are actually simpler.

Shi Xiong knew that he was thinking too much, and he knew that he should not have any illusions about the enemy.

If you want to win everything from the enemy, you have to use your weapon to fight and kill!

There is no room for relaxation!

It was because of his carelessness and a trace of illusion of existence before that, more than 700 Grim Bear soldiers fell in front of the epidemic. And he hesitated in the face of the epidemic, which caused the Comanche to have a longer time to collude with the Navajo and Apaches, which caused greater difficulties for this war.

Therefore, similar mistakes must not be made again in the future.

As long as the enemy does not surrender, kill it! Kill until they collapse.

As for the Comanche, Apache, and Navajo united together, so what? Has the Grim Bear Army ever feared the alliance of the enemy?

In a situation that is stronger than the weapons possessed by the major military powers in Europe, the combination of these indigenous peoples is not enough to beat...

Facts have proved that when Shi Xiong became hard-hearted again, the war immediately became much simpler.

When the world's most advanced thermal weapons in this era match the primitive and backward cold weapons, the huge gap in weapons can never be filled with a number of people.

It’s just like the Americans used mushroom bombs to blow up little devils in historical time and space. When the mushroom bomb that can destroy a city exploded, no matter how strong the little devils were, they would be directly hit by this powerful weapon. collapsed.

Thermal weapons, no matter how good they are, are scumbags in front of atomic energy weapons.

Similarly, a cold weapon that is better than a hot weapon can never be compared with a hot weapon. Especially when the Grim Bear Army also has mortars capable of long-range precision strikes, this gap is infinitely widened.

The process of this war is also simple, even if the Comanche, Apache, and Navajo dispatched a coalition of at least 20,000, while the Grim Bear Army dispatched only the first division, guards, and the number can be ignored. The disregarded "air force" totaled 12,000 people, but the war was still inevitably leaning toward one side quickly.

Whether they are the Comanche, the Apache, or the Navajo, they are the first North American Indian tribes to come into contact with the Spaniards. Although the Spaniards have no achievements in the central and eastern and northern parts of the North American continent, they rely on Advantageous navigation established a huge "colony" in western North America early.

The entire Rocky Mountains, including the west coast west of the Rocky Mountains, became the Spanish "colonies" early on.

It is no exaggeration to say that the North American Indian tribes in this area, especially the Comanche and Apache in the southwest, had contact with the Spanish even earlier than the Cherokee had contact with the British.

This situation has resulted in the fact that the Comanche, Apache and other Southwest Indian tribes have many horses.

If it weren’t for Stone Bear’s efforts to collect war horses in recent years, trade in exchange for war horses, and work hard to cultivate tribes who can raise war horses, the number of war horses of the Cherokee might not be able to keep up with the number of war horses owned by the Comanche.

It may be that the Comanche possess a large number of war horses that gave them the confidence to resist the Grizzlies.

However, just relying on seven or eight hundred war horses, it is also impossible to smooth the huge gap between weapons.

The First Division of the Grim Bear Army, the Guards and the Air Force were dispatched in this way, and this time, the Stone Bear personally rode the fire and phoenix and followed it in full gear.

The Chieftain's imperial conquest also greatly stimulated the Grim Bear soldiers who had been somewhat low morale, and the morale of the entire army was high.

Under such circumstances, the Air Force took the lead in the air. Below the rear are the 10,000 soldiers of the First Division, and on the two wings of the First Division, there are two thousand guards.

Speaking of the two thousand guards, this is also a force specially organized by Shi Xiong after he became the chief.

Moreover, the Guards were also the first and only formed cavalry unit of the entire Cherokee tribe.

Two thousand guards occupy a full two thousand of the best horses~lightnovelpub.net~ However, Shixiong did not turn the guards into heavy cavalry among the military powers of the European continent. With the increasing range and power of thermal weapons, especially muskets, the heavy cavalry that used to sweep everything is no longer useful.

Even the heavy cavalry wears heavy armor. These armors can easily withstand the attacks of bows and arrows and even spears, but they are still indistinguishable from the paper in front of the hot weapons, especially the advanced hot weapons such as the blasting bear rifle.

Therefore, when forming the Guards, Shi Xiong built the Guards into a standard "hussar".

All the soldiers of the Guards are the best fighters selected from the Grim Bears. If they want to become the Guards, they must have excellent riding skills. The minimum requirement is to be able to ride fast. In the middle of the hands, let go of the province, and only use the legs to control the horses.

Of course, after becoming the Guards, they still need to learn a skill, that is, holding the Burst Bear rifle in both hands to shoot while the horse is running wild, and they must also learn to load bullets on the horseback!
