Chapter 308: Blocking is slaughtering the city

Those who were dissatisfied with Johnson jumped out to accuse, because after receiving the news, the capitalists were in a hurry, and the Confederate army hit their money bags, which was absolutely impermissible, and they launched relations one after another, coercing the federal army to reinforce here and drive away the Confederate army.

In the face of the rising calls for the recovery of Philadelphia, Johnson did not dare to ignore it, knowing that he is now only the vice president acting president, and can only make some compromises on the first plan, but still insists on the second plan.

The way to do this was to bring Grant back to fight Baltimore, and the troops fighting Baltimore were immediately transferred to the Delaware Valley.

As for the president, leave it alone for the time being, and you won't be able to work anyway.

Grant, who received the order, really dropped the cup this time.

"Smack!" Shattered with a bang!

The troops were pulled back, not to mention that President Lincoln could not get it back, and even the fighting in Petersburg was about to stop.

Edwood shook his head and said: "Commander-in-chief, so we have no troops to support General Sherman, the news came a few days ago, General Sherman is already in a passive and disadvantageous position, the Federal Navy was intercepted by heavy artillery in Washington Harbor, blocked in the inner harbor, unable to deliver supplies to the past, we can't watch the Western Front troops be defeated by Robert Lee with only 20,000 men." ”

Sherman was one of Grant's most loyal generals, and Grant naturally couldn't ignore it, so he had to order: "Order George to get in touch with Sherman as soon as possible, don't flank Robert Lee first, recover the Rohanok River as quickly as possible, and connect the troops to solve the threat to the east of the Western Front Army." ”

It took two days, and the other two regiments swept through the cities and small towns within dozens of miles one after another, and here Yang Dongfang received that the federal army still had not withdrawn from Baltimore, and decided to add some materials, and said to Daniel: "General Daniel, now you can set fire to the city, you can play to your heart's content." ”

Just burned the dock the other day! The rest of the places were suppressed by Yang Dongfang and the devil army was not allowed to burn and kill, but it was just robbed, and after this time it was robbed, the devil army was finally killed.

Soon the whole of Philadelphia burst into flames, and the flames spread throughout the city, and at the same time, the small towns on the outskirts were also set ablaze by the Devil's Legions, and the same was true for the villages, exactly as Sherman had done in the South.

When the village was burned, the well was filled, all the buildings were destroyed, and when there was resistance, no one was left, leaving one of the two regiments of the devil in the arsenal, and three regiments crossed the river and attacked the city of Cherihir.

Cherry Hill is another large city across the Delaware River from Philadelphia, located in New Jersey, the third state to join the United States and one of the most densely populated states in the United States.

Therefore, there are 80,000 volunteer soldiers in the federal army who come from this state, and of course, the combat effectiveness of New Jersey can only be regarded as moderate, and the people's customs are not strong.

Large cities are mainly located along the coast, but also on the border with the states.

In any case, the population is large, and the militia will naturally increase, and seeing that Philadelphia fell five days ago, the city of Cherihir, across the river, has long been prepared, and the militia of 3,000 distributes weapons and patrols day and night.

As for the big capitalists, who are already dealing with their family property and preparing to run away, of course, the wisest are people, and they don't want anything, and they roll up the soft gold and silver and go to New York State, or to the coastal city of Atlantic City.

"The traitors from the south have captured Pensokin, they have not attacked the city of Kenton, not from the direction of the Cooper River!"

"Is the Federal Navy coming, aren't they coming to help us? Can we stop these demons? ”

Cherihir's militia, hearing that the southern army was only five kilometers away, began to tremble and nervous, began to fear, and began to experience the fear that the northern army had brought to the south when it attacked the south.

At this moment, they held the gun and resisted, more cursing Sherman, the guy they had previously called a hero.

The Devil's Legion is not unknown, Yang Dongfang asked Daniel to play the banner of revenge for what the Sherman Legion did, and to learn from him. In this way, the federal population naturally knows where the hatred comes from.

If Sherman didn't treat the south like this at the beginning, then the southern army will not treat the north like this today, there is a cause and effect, this is called retribution, and no one else can be wronged.

At the same time, Yang Dongfang also played the banner that as long as the Northern Union surrendered, gave up attacking the south, and stopped the war, then all this would not happen, and if Washington did not stop hurting the south, they would continue to advance to the east and the north and kill to New York.

Call New York, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and even Maine.

Hit every state in the Northern Union.

The simple meaning is, come on, come and hurt each other! The barefoot are not afraid to wear shoes.

More than an hour passed, the banner of the Southern Army appeared in the north of the city, and the neat Southern Army walked slowly, bringing people to the impact with every step, and the slower they walked, the stronger the sense of oppression brought to the militia.

"Warriors, for the sake of our family, we must hold on, we will definitely be able to keep the devil under the city. We sure we can. ”

The mayor used his not very sonorous, with his deep voice, with a little fear, and his vocal cords trembled slightly.

"We can defend Cherishil!"

Another hour passed, and the southern army still did not attack, slowly erecting artillery and building a position in an orderly manner.

This made the people in the city even more tormented, and they didn't dare to blink an eye, staring at the position of the southern army, for fear that a lax enemy would rush up and break through the city.

"Listen to the Beiyan in the city, come out and surrender, lay down your arms, give you a chance, disarm and not kill, we are only here to take revenge, you Beiyan sent troops into our southern states and invaded us, then we will return blood for blood, tooth for tooth, as long as we disarm, we guarantee that no one will be injured, but if we dare to stop our Southern Alliance rebels, we will be killed."

"I'll give you half an hour to think about it, as soon as the time comes, our army will attack the city, and when the city is broken, it will be the time to slaughter the city and burn it."

Soon half an hour passed, during which countless people proposed surrender to the mayor, but the mayor and the councillors refused, and they righteously said: "Warriors! The south is full of traitors, we should fight them, the untouchables in the south block the development of the country, they damn conservatives, they all deserve to go to hell, we are free, righteous, bright, brave, we can't surrender to traitors, never, we have to fight to the low, the British can't make us submit, we are invincible. ”

"Envoy! The North does not surrender. ”

"Then let's shoot, Daniel, although we are not here to fight, but I am sure that it will not take you much time to fight at this level."

"Of course, the envoy, after a few hours of oppression, the group of raw soldiers in the city will be almost unable to hold on, and we can kill it with just one charge." Daniel pulled out his sword, narrowed his eyes, and shouted: "Fire!" Offensive! ”

"Boom, boom, boom.!"

Dozens of artillery pieces roared together, and shells were sent into the city, instantly destroying dozens of houses, burning into flames, and more shells fell into the militia's positions, setting off mud and sand at various intersections.

Where these militiamen passed through this formation, many people were frightened by the sound of artillery.

The recruits are afraid of artillery, the veterans are afraid of guns, not to mention these militiamen, three rounds of shelling, they were defeated, many people will not be able to protect themselves, either wounded by shrapnel, or turn around and run into the city, and then hit the corpses of the five horses with a bang, a large area of blood.

The escape effect is like this, a run can trigger a large area, which cannot be suppressed, and the surrounding area is deafening, and a militia connected to a company runs towards the city, which soon triggers a collapse.

In particular, as soon as the sound of artillery stopped, the Devil's Legion thousands of meters away rushed up quickly, reaching four or five hundred meters at once, and then one company covered the attack with one company after another.

"Hell, the southern ghosts rushed up, shooting, raising their guns to shoot."

The last warrior who hadn't yet run, when he heard the order, picked up the gun in his hand, shot out indiscriminately, and hid after shooting, because he was slow to move, he was instantly hit by a bullet and fell to the ground.

The soldiers on the outside used breech guns, which were more accurate and stable.

"Run, sir, the southern ghosts are more than a hundred meters away, and we can't resist them."

As he spoke, grenades were thrown outside, and there were several explosions, and the militia broke up any longer, threw down their guns and ran, and the only few experienced officers who had retired from the civil war reminded: "Don't! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the bullet was shot into the backs of these militiamen, and it was too late to run at this time, which was tantamount to looking for death.

"If you really want to live, just put down your weapons and raise your hands, surrender may be the best way!" The officer, who had retired from the civil war, smiled bitterly at the few soldiers beside him as a reminder of conscience, and then pulled out his pistol and pointed it at his temple: "Assuming that the Southern Army does what it says, it will be meaningless." ”

"Bang!"

The brainmelon cracked, like a summer watermelon smashed with a hammer, the scene was particularly bloody, and the retired officer used his death to tell the militiamen what war was, and at the same time remind them of the consequences of defeat, and slaughter the city if they don't surrender.

But unfortunately, his death at this time could not find any value, there were few militias here, all of them fled into the city, and there was no one to protect the city.

The roaring mayor ran out of the city from the south of the city the second time, and the first to run was the capitalists who had supported them against the southern army.

"If you don't seal the knife today, guys, let's kill me in, allow you to do anything, let the North Yankees see what a wrong decision it is to resist us, look at what their heroes do, if it happens to themselves, can they still drink happily, play the piano, and dance to celebrate?"
