Chapter 546: The British were terrified

"How's the situation? The Iroquois are restless?" They were all old brothers, and as soon as they met, Shi Xiong asked directly about the situation here.

   The bighorn sheep shrugged his shoulders and made a gesture for Bone Spear to speak.

   Although the Bighorn is the supreme commander of the Grim Bear Army, he generally does not participate in the following matters. He is now mainly responsible for formulating strategic plans, and he rarely participates in tactical matters.

   The ten masters of the violent bear army are the makers and implementers of specific tactics.

   Like the Sault Ste. Marie-Detroit-Cleveland line of defense jointly developed by Stone Bear and Bighorn Sheep, it belongs to the strategic aspect, and the specific defense is a tactical matter. In this regard, the Second Division's Long Bone Spear has more say.

"In general, the Iroquois in winter are relatively safe. In the early winter, the Iroquois sent someone to harass us, but we were bombarded with a 76mm cannon and killed a person. Thousands of Iroquois. Since then, the Iroquois dare not send troops to harass us easily. However, our hot air balloon observers can see small groups of Iroquois moving in the distance every day. It is estimated to be watching us. I didn't move these small groups of Iroquois. These guys run faster than a grassy jumper. As long as we get out, they won't be able to find anyone for a while." Bone Spear's introduction Quite simply, it means that nothing big happened here this winter.

Shi Xiong nodded and said: "I stayed for a few days on Kuaima's side in the north before coming to you. Kuaima and the others have encountered this kind of problem. The Huron was harassing him, and it was in the early winter of last year. At the time, but after several fights, the Hurons were also scared, and they never dared to send anyone to harass them. Before I came here, the Hurons even sent messengers to make peace with us, but I refused Up."

   The big horn sheep frowned and asked, "Boss, it's a good thing for the Huron people to take the initiative to talk about it. Why did you refuse?"

Shi Xiong shook his head and said, "I just told them that we are here to conquer all the tribes here. No matter who you are, as long as you stand in our way, you will either obediently and unconditionally surrender, or We broke down and surrendered. As for making peace, we don’t have to make peace with them, nor do they have the qualifications to make peace with us."

   Bone Spear laughed and clapped his hands and said, "The boss is so aggressive! Why should those Huron people make peace with us? They really don't have this qualification!"

   The bighorn sheep also nodded with a wry smile.

   "Those British people here don't do anything extra to us, right?" Shixiong asked again.

   In fact, when this line of defense was established, Stone Bear was most worried about not the Iroquois and Hurons, but the British colonists who occupied Detroit and took over New France.

   Detroit is not only an important city in the United States in later generations, but also a large city in the United States. Now, Detroit Castle, which is still a military fortress, is still a very important British fortress in the Great Lakes region.

As early as in the seventeenth century, more than a hundred years ago, the French discovered that Detroit’s generation of Tebi was suitable for settlement. Later, in 1701, French officer Antoine de la Motte Cadiac used the In the name of the Earl of Pont Chateau, the Secretary of the Navy of Louis XIV, the Fort Pont Chateau on the Detroit River was established here as a fur trading center and an important military fortress in the Great Lakes region.

   Later in the Seven Years' War, the French lost their ownership of Fort Pont Chateau on the Detroit River, and the military fortress was taken over by the British. The British simplified the name of this fortress to Detroit. The British also sent a large number of soldiers and colonists to station in this fortress.

   Detroit quickly developed into one of the most important military fortresses in the Great Lakes region.

"In the beginning, those Vasichus came to protest, including those British soldiers in red clothes and some colonists. They said we threatened their safety, but I blocked them from returning." Bone Spear smiled. Said, "The Vasichu gang was terrified! But, what do we do? This is our territory, not their British territory."

   Shixiong smiled and gestured to the bone spear with a thumb.

The big horn sheep smiled and said: "After that protest, those Vasichus were quiet for a while, but one day, some drunk Vasichus wanted to forcefully break into our garrison camp. Our soldiers shot past fourteen Vasichus in a round of gunfire, and those Vasichus were immediately frightened. Later, the highest officer in the fortress came and asked us why they killed their people. I Tell that guy directly, you better take care of your people, otherwise if we anger us, we will grab your fortress directly! It's like we grab those French fortresses! Then the guy is scared again. I dare not speak anymore..."

   "Hahahaha..." All three of them laughed.

Shixiong definitely does not doubt the words of Bone Spear and Bighorn Sheep, because he knows very well that although this place has been regarded as a back garden by the British ~lightnovelpub.net~ Now suddenly there are a full 10,000 second division soldiers stationed near Detroit. Although the front line opened was relatively long, it also scared the more than 2,000 British garrisons and more colonists in the Detroit Fortress.

   In addition, although the British at this time defeated the French in the Seven Years' War and took over a large number of French sites in North America, in fact, the British are really a little overwhelmed.

   Now that the British are too late to win over many powerful Indian tribes, how can they dare to offend these powerful Indian tribes?

Especially after the gunshot in Lexington, the British have now completely fallen into dire straits. Their military power in North America is not as sufficient as imagined, and the British government's wallet is not as rich as imagined. Facing the war of independence that broke out in the thirteen colonies of North America, the British can't even take care of the uprising colonists. How can they still have the intention to offend the native Indians?

   If Detroit's position is not too critical and important, maybe Boston, which is tight at this time, will have to transfer all the British troops stationed in Detroit.

   Besides, the strength of the Cherokee is now known not only by the Indian tribes in the New World of North America, but also by the great powers as far away as the European continent.

   The Ferguson rifles, which are now widely equipped by the Spanish, French, and British armies, were flowed out of the Cherokee hands!

   Now that 10,000 powerful Cherokee fighters have come to Detroit, it is strange that the British dare to stab them!

   Not to mention the aftermath of the Pontiac uprising that broke out more than ten years ago is not over yet!
