The man who led the 88th Light Infantry Regiment of the Royal Army was Lieutenant Colonel Andrew Barnett of the Royal Army.

　　His mission was to land from the south shore of Lake Ontario, then head southeast, merge with the Royal Army landing from other locations on the south shore of Lake Ontario, and finally enter the Mohawk River Valley, then head east along the Mohawk River Valley, and finally arrive at Albany.

As early as when he accepted this task, Lieutenant Colonel Barnett knew that his path was not easy. After all, the Iroquois allies that were originally entrenched on the southern shore of Lake Ontario are gone, and the 88th Light Infantry Regiment can only advance on its own. .

　　 After landing, Lieutenant Colonel Barnett received a warning from Colonel Alston from the Detroit Fortress, saying that they should not launch military operations in that area.

　　 Lieutenant Colonel Barnett sneered at this.

　　 Although the rank of Colonel Alston is higher than him, Lieutenant Colonel Barnett really looks down on this kind of aristocratic child who relies on the strength of the family.

　　 The Royal British Army is an army that only the brave can join. It is a shame for those **** cowards to get into this sacred army.

　　 Therefore, Lieutenant Colonel Barnett, who has been fighting in the army step by step, looks down on people like Colonel Alston.

　　 So he ignored Colonel Alston’s warning.

　　 But Lieutenant Colonel Barnett also wisely chose to set off along the scheduled route immediately after landing, rather than trimming it in place.

　　Because he also saw the Native Indian soldiers who appeared near the landing site.

Although Lieutenant Colonel Barnett can’t understand people like Colonel Alston, he is not a fool. He also knows the strength of the Cherokee that has suddenly risen in the New World in the past ten years, and he does not want to provoke him. Such a powerful enemy.

　　 Shortly after leaving the landing site and heading inland, the 88th Light Infantry Regiment encountered resistance from the Continental Army.

　　 The terrain on the south shore of Lake Ontario itself is not very flat, except for the small area near the lake, which is flat, and not far to the south is the mountainous area. The only place to pass east is the Mohawk Valley.

　　The name of the Mohawk River comes from the Mohawk tribe, the largest tribe in the Iroquois League, also called the Mohawk tribe. In the battle for the Grim Bear Army to regain the ancestral land the year before, Stone Bear used his big bow to successively kill the chiefs of the six major tribes of the Iroquois Alliance, among them Wahak, the chief of the Mohawk tribe.

　　 Later generations of the Erie Canal from Buffalo to Albany, there is also a section of the river that was built with the help of the Mohawk River.

　　 Now, this river valley is the key area in which the British and the Continental Army competed.

　　Because the British landed from several locations, the Continental Army was naturally divided into several parts to deal with the British. Part of it encountered the British 88th Light Infantry Regiment, which had just landed.

　　 The encounter between the two sides soon began.

　　 Although the 88th Light Infantry Regiment was a light infantry regiment, with the help of domestic sophisticated equipment, the soldiers of Lieutenant Colonel Barnett quickly gained the upper hand with the newly equipped Mississippi rifles and a small number of grenadiers.

　　Mississippi rifle is the rifle sold by the Yanhuang tribe under the direction of Shixiong. This enhanced version of the Ferguson rifle, which uses smokeless powder as the propellant and has an effective range of about 350 yards, appeared in the UK with the help of the sales channels of Viscount Hank and the Auston family, and it was immediately obtained. It was sought after by the British army.

　　 The King of England even decided to purchase this rifle vigorously, of course, more is to purchase the ammunition for this rifle.

　　 On the battlefield of the thirteen colonies in North America, the British army needed this more advanced weapon to deal with those damned guerrillas.

　　 Lieutenant Colonel Barnett’s 88th Light Infantry Regiment is fully equipped with this new Mississippi rifle.

　　 From the perspective of the battle, this rifle can easily suppress the Continental Army's Kentucky rifle.

　　 But just as Lieutenant Colonel Barnett was about to wipe out the Continental Army in front of him, there was a strange whistling sound in the sky.

Not many people have heard of the screaming sound of this artillery shell flying in the air at supersonic speeds, so whether it is the British soldiers of the 88th Light Infantry Regiment or those of the Continental Army, this sound After the sound, everyone was stunned.

　　 In the next moment, an earth-shattering explosion suddenly broke out on the battlefield where the two sides were fighting.

In just this round of explosions, hundreds of British soldiers and Continental Army soldiers who were at war were torn into pieces by this violent explosion, and more people were shocked by the huge shock wave and sound generated by the explosion. Nose, eye and ear bleeding...

　　 Obviously, they have been shelled!

　　 And they couldn't figure out which direction this bombardment came from. The most important thing was that they had never seen such a fierce bombardment.

　　 In the eyes of many warriors, the hundreds of human bodies that were broken into four pieces, and the shock wave that can shake people to death, are simply made by the devil who drilled out of hell. It's terrible...

　　 But by the way, the shelling didn't end even once.

　　 Not long after the end of the first round of shelling, the screaming sound that was even more frightening than the roar of death resounded in the sky again.

　　 Next moment~lightnovelpub.net~ This battlefield is once again covered by countless huge explosions and gunpowder smoke.

　　 is the third round, the fourth round...

　　 When the seven rounds of shelling were over, no matter whether it was the Continental Army soldiers who were in charge of the interception or the British 88th Light Infantry Regiment, not many people were alive. The two sides combined nearly two thousand soldiers, at least 800 people died in the seven rounds of shelling. Although the remaining people were not dead, they had a lot less parts.

　　囫囵 there are less than four hundred people...

　　Whether it is the British army or the Continental Army, they were all blown up by this sudden terrorist bombardment. As the highest officer of the 88th Light Infantry Regiment, Lieutenant Colonel Barnett had an extra piece of shrapnel on his right arm, and blood was flowing down his right arm, but he didn't seem to notice that he was injured. Looked stupidly at this battlefield that was even more terrifying than hell.

What exactly happened here?

　　 No one knows what's going on, because neither the British nor the Continental Army can understand that there are people who can launch shelling from seven kilometers away.

Of course, they didn’t know. At this time, at an artillery position seven kilometers away, Major General Ohamoka, the commander of the 9th Division of the Grim Bear Army, spit out the cigarette **** in his mouth, his face was full. It is the color of excitement that can't be suppressed.

　　In the artillery position next to Ohamoka, the muzzle of twelve 105mm artillery guns and 18 76mm artillery guns of the Ninth Division Division’s artillery regiment was mixed, and the blue smoke that came out was faintly visible...
