In the original historical time and space, the British had the advantage in the early and middle stages of the outbreak of the War of Independence.

　　Especially in the early days, except for the end of the Battle of Boston, the British forces were forced to withdraw from Boston, but in other respects, the British generally prevailed.

　　 Especially after the American militia's strategy of trying to occupy Canada by land was crushed by the British, the American militia really had no advantage in the early days of the war.

　　 But it is undeniable that it was precisely because the American militia wanted to take down Canada, which led to the main battlefield being placed in the north during the early years of the War of Independence.

　　 It hasn't been a month since the gunfire in Lexington sounded. It is still a month away from the first large-scale battle between the British and the American militia, that is, the tragic Battle of Bunker Hill.

Although the British suffered more losses than the American militia at the Battle of Bunker Hill, the British retained Boston at any rate, giving the British a solid port in the north, and allowing the British to continuously send soldiers from the United Kingdom to North America. .

　　If the Battle of Bunker Hill was won by the American militia and the British lost Boston, then the entire War of Independence might end several years in advance. However, the key battle of Bunker Hill was won by the British.

　　 If the British kept Boston, they would inevitably go northward, and then join the reinforcements from Britain that entered Canada through the St. Lawrence River, and then went south to attack the American militia.

　　 Regardless of whether it was the Battle of Montreal or the Battle of Quebec, it all happened at the end of this year. So Shixiong certainly didn't rush to attack.

　　 Just kidding, I went to Canada to fight in November and December, and that was just looking for death.

　　 Let alone the enemy, the harsh winter alone can kill a large number of people.

　　 Rock bears won’t let their own Grim Bear soldiers go to Canada to die in the winter.

Therefore, before October this year, it will be enough to take the Elineys and the Chippewas farther north. After the blooming of spring next year, we can kill the Hurons and Iroquois to the east, and kill the Crees to the west. !

　　 Iroquois knows very well that, as an ally of the British, the Iroquois will inevitably participate in the two battles that took place in Canada this winter. By then, it will be impossible for the Iroquois to even want to wear it.

　　 The cold winter and the Kentucky rifle in the hands of the American militia can easily kill the Iroquois.

　　 Although the Iroquois are more resistant to freezing than the American militia, the matchlocks in their hands are really not comparable to the Kentucky rifles in the hands of the American militia.

　　 So, let them bite the dog first, I will rush slowly behind.

　　 The Northern Expedition, which was close to 60,000, moved slowly and firmly along the Mississippi River to the north. One month after the Northern Expedition began, a large force came to a piece of land.

　　 This land is not as barren as the places I passed by before...Well, it is a bit wrong to say barren, because it also looks barren. It should be said that this place seems to be more orderly and orderly than those places passed by before.

　　 "Boss, there seems to be someone living here before..." Kuaima and Bighorn sheep stood beside the stone bear on their horses, and asked Kuaima looking at the large piece of land in front of them.

　　 Although Bighorn Sheep didn't ask a question, the look on his face was the same.

　　 Three people riding horses standing on a small mound about ten meters high, looking around the surrounding land.

　　 This large piece of land that cannot be seen at a glance is really ordered. The flat areas are flat, the raised areas are raised, and even the raised areas are so regular. This should not have formed naturally, but artificially piled up mounds, including this small mound under their three feet.

　　 The most important thing is that standing here can vaguely see the vertical and horizontal roads. Even if these roads were covered with weeds and even decimals, the neat lines and the regular layout made Shi Xiong at a glance that there was absolutely a large number of people who had survived here a long time ago.

　　 Shi Xiong's heart moved, and a name suddenly appeared in his heart-Cahokia Civilization!

　　 Shixiong turned his head and beckoned to a guard, who immediately took out a map and ran up.

　　 Unfolding the map, Shi Xiong found out that he was currently located near East St. Louis in Illinois, Illinois!

　　 Closing the map, Shi Xiong said to the two curious little friends around him: "If I'm not mistaken, this place should be the famous Cahokia!"

　　 "Cahokia?" The two were at a loss. Obviously, they didn't know the name that once resounded across the entire North American continent.

　　 "Yes! It's Cahokia!" Stone Bear nodded affirmatively, because his eyes had already seen the huge mound in the distance.

　　 It is a mound with a length of more than 300 meters, a width of more than 200 meters, and a height of 30 meters. This mound should be the famous monk mound for later generations, and it is also the largest pyramid in the world.

　　Although this pyramid is piled up with soil, this does not hinder its reputation.

　　 Although the monk mound is not as high as the Khufu Pyramid, its area is 1.5 times that of the Khufu Pyramid!

　　 It is precisely because the stone bear saw and concluded that the mound is the monk mound, UU reading www.uukanshu.com, he knew that this was the place where the Cahokia civilization was once.

　　 Later Americans discovered a large area of ​​civilization in the eastern suburbs of East St. Louis. After investigation by archaeologists, they discovered that this ancient site destroyed by the flood is the Cahokia civilization in historical legends.

　　 And according to research, archaeologists confirmed that there was a huge tribe in this area before about the twelfth century. Here, there used to be thousands of thatched huts and dozens or even hundreds of artificial mounds. The thatched huts inhabited by Indians were hidden among the huge mounds, surrounded by ritual squares used for sacrifices.

　　 It is said that more than 50,000 Indian natives once lived on this huge cultural monument. This is the largest Indian city in North America before Columbus discovered the New World.

　　 Even before the nineteenth century, this was the largest city north of the Rio Grande River. It was bigger than Boston or Philadelphia today!

　　 It is a pity that this huge city was destroyed by a super flood in the 14th century. The flooding of the Mississippi River completely destroyed this large piece of civilization. Since then, North American Indian civilization has lacked one of the most brilliant pearls.

　　 But it seems that although the Cahokian civilization was destroyed by the flood, there are still Cahokian activities here. And the Cahokias are also part of the current Elena...

　　I was a stone bear who worked in a museum in his previous life. Naturally, he is very clear about this period of history.
