Chapter 310 Circumference Three Missing One

The sun rises in the east, and the direction of the sea is red, reflecting half of the sky, indicating that today is another extraordinary day, the war is still going on, and the bloodshed has not stopped. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Sending news through the waterways, the Federal Navy in Trent was ordered to come to suppress the Confederate troops in Philadelphia, the river warships were loaded with shells, and the highlight of the shelling today fell on the navy.

Along the river, the battleships lined up and aimed horizontally at West Philadelphia, loaded and fired in one go.

"Boom, boom, boom.!"

It was nearly an hour of shelling, and the thick smoke mixed with the raging flames burned violently, and the Federation troops who watched all this were extremely excited.

After the artillery stopped, the Federation Army sent five companies to approach slowly, moving their bodies little by little, approaching cautiously, ready to lie down at any time to find cover.

But this time they were too cautious, the position in the city has not moved, the city is unusually quiet, except for the popping sound of burning wood from the fire, not a single southern army has come up, and there are no murderous weapons.

After grinding for more than ten minutes, I finally got closer, only to find that the position was empty, there was no Southern Army, and the corpses that looked like Southern Army were all scarecrows in military uniforms.

"Tutu Tu Tu Tu Tu ...

Just as the Federal Navy opened fire, gunfire broke out in Wilmington, 45 kilometers away, and Yang Dongfang appeared here with three regiments of the Devil's Army, more than 800 arsenal technicians and their families.

Each regiment carried three Maxims, and opened fire on the blocking federal army, and the northern army, which had the courage to resist, was blinded at that time in the face of such sharp infantry weapons, and the streets and roadcars were defeated one after another until they were frightened crazy.

There were still more than 2,000 regular troops and more than 2,000 militia in the city, but they were driven out in less than half an hour. Abandon the warehouses and cities they defended.

"Quick, first demolish the shipyard for me, destroy the dock for me, and the federal navy will receive the news and rush here in half a day."

After taking the city, Yang Dongfang rushed to collect the ammunition and materials as soon as possible, and captured the ammunition supply of an army, and after three or four hours, the shipyard was dismantled and burned along with the dock, which sent Daniel:

"You take a regiment and march to Baltimore by land with the families of the arsenal, and continue to sweep the towns along the way, but don't move the towns in Maryland, Maryland I think it should belong to the south after the war, and I will block the Union Army behind you."

"It's an envoy! I'll keep it in mind. Daniel bowed and thanked him heartily as he was about to leave: "Thank you, Special Envoy, for your contribution to our south, for thinking so well for us, and you will always be my beloved leader." ”

"Huh!" Looking at Daniel who was leaving, Yang Dongfang smiled knowingly, it seems that this guy doesn't mind letting him carry the black cauldron.

After Daniel left, Yang Dong led the two regiments to continue to loot the great cause, and the federal navy that received the news rushed back after half a day, and Yang Dongfang didn't think about fighting them, so he burned the dock and made way for the area along the river.

The federal navy did not dare to open fire because of the civilians in the city, so they had no choice but to cruise.

It wasn't until a day later that the federal army in Philadelphia hurried in, and Yang Dongfang evacuated Wilmington with his people, and when he left, he also set a fire, and the city was all wooden at this time, and Wilmington soon fell into a sea of fire.

Another major city in the Delaware Valley Economic Belt was burned to the ground, dealing another blow to the federal economy.

When the Federal Army, which had just arrived here, saw this scene, they were so angry that the vanguard of 5,000 men abandoned their baggage and chased after them without artillery, despite their exhaustion and anger.

"Envoy, the North is catching up."

"Keep going, and when you get to Newark him, I'm going to have a roundabout."

Newark, 15 kilometers away, was set on fire by Daniel yesterday, and when Yang Dongfang and others arrived there, it had turned into a scorched earth, and the ruins were extremely miserable.

"Sir! This place has also been burned down by the southern ghosts, so let's take a break. ”

After walking for thirty miles in a row, the Federation army had long been tired like a dog, they had been walking from Philadelphia for a day and a half, and they had not eaten rice, and they had relied on the support of one breath, and they had shown their great potential, and when they saw Newark turned into scorched earth, they had nothing but anger in their hearts.

I had no choice but to lie down and rest outside the city, and I didn't think too much about it at all. The ruins of Newark were only briefly glanced at without much inspection.

They didn't know that in the dense jungle north of Newark, Yang Dongfang was waiting for them with two regiments, they had arrived a few hours early, they had eaten and drunk enough, and they had rested enough, so they waited for the Northern Army to relax their vigilance and stop to rest.

"Okay, it's time to act, that's five thousand sheep."

After being tired, I relaxed, my body seemed to be hollowed out, and it could be said that I didn't have half the strength, and at this time, it was just right to besiege from three sides.

Especially from afar.

"Fire!"

"Boom, boom."

What's going on, where to shoot,

Not good, we are attacked, hurry up, pick up the gun, fight.

Only then did it become clear that it was too late for the bad Union troops, and the shells fell into the dense crowd, killing a large area with one shell, and killing a platoon with one shell.

Fortunately, these shells are not dense, only a few dozen, otherwise they would have been blown up alive.

The northern army that got up was like a headless fly, running in all directions, when the southern army from the east, west, and north rushed up, and set up Makqin to fight the northern army that was trying to resist.

Originally, the Northern Army had 5,000 people, and it had a proper advantage in terms of strength, but it was bombed, and in addition, it was exhausted, and there was not much strength to shoot, where could it block the attack of the Southern Army, let alone counterattack.

There was nothing to cover around, and there was still Newark City, but they didn't go in to rest because it was burned.

At this time, they were all live targets in the open area, and they could not break through the firepower network of the Makqin organization of the Southern Army.

Seeing that there was no southern army to the south, they fled in this direction.

Yang Dongfang led the southern army to pursue three miles of land, and the northern army lost its armor, leaving more than 4,000 muskets and countless ammunition, and Yang Dongfang stopped the pursuit.

The system automatically collected these guns, and the East was satisfied with the troops, and the Confederate army with two regiments continued towards Baltimore, after which the Union Army never pursued it again.

Because Yang Dongfang ambushed this time, he directly killed two and a half regiments of federal soldiers, which frightened the commander who surrounded and suppressed them this time.

In just a few days, he lost an integrated brigade, and countless ammunition, the rear cities were burned, and the letters of impeachment of him drifted into Washington like snowflakes.

Two days later, Yang Dongfang finally arrived in Baltimore, at which time Grant was also shaken up, and gathered more than 10,000 troops of two divisions outside the city, but did not launch an attack, because there was a problem with the supply of ammunition, and it was impossible to maintain a large-scale attack.

Grant did not attack, Yang Dongfang was not idle, and transferred all the ammunition captured in Wilmington to the various Southern troops in North Carolina. So Robert Lee and others began to prepare for a general offensive and began to take the initiative to attack the Sherman Corps.

Speaking of ammunition, on the other hand, Yang Dongfang was still thinking about the Franklin Arsenal in Kentucky, resuming time travel, Yang Dongfang immediately appeared outside Franklin City with 2,000 people and launched a night attack on this city.

According to the spies on this side, after Daniel withdrew from Kentucky to Charleston, Thomas withdrew his protection of Franklin, scattered his forces in other major cities, and moved a converging force with Hancock to West Virginia.

At this time, Franklin could be said to be empty, with only two regiments of less than a thousand troops, of which a thousand were militiamen, and George Henry Thomas himself was not here.

The defenders did not expect that there would be a Southern army attacking the city, and the artillery and heavy machine guns were more intense.

In less than half an hour, the defenders lost a quarter of the battle, and the rest were defeated, Yang Dongfang and others entered the city, ransacked Franklin, and obtained a lot of ammunition. At this point, the troops of the Union Army in the Midwest also began to stop strangulation of the collapsed units of the Southern Army due to the lack of ammunition. (To be continued.) )
