"Bastard! Come back! Come back! There are only 3,000 southern ghosts, come back quickly and kill the southern ghosts! β
Located halfway between Albany and Springfield, there was a city called Stockbridge, and at this time, the defensive positions outside the city were broken, and the heavy artillery overturned them at once, and the militia, which had little combat experience, was suddenly in chaos.
One by one, they scrambled backwards, and a stray bullet flew by, hitting the back of the head, and they fell to the ground, blood flowing.
Robert Lee, who was watching all this from the telescope, waved his hand: "Attack, the sixth regiment is attacking, the seventh regiment is detouring from the left, if there is a northern army fleeing south, be sure to intercept it, you can't let one go!" Leave it alone to the north. β
Then Yang Dongfang also issued an order: "You don't need to be taken prisoner in this battle, as long as you are still alive, you can still kill all the enemies standing in front of you." β
The rumbling cannon sounded for the last time, the horn of the charge sounded, and the southern troops ran bravely to the position of the northern army one by one, raising their guns and shooting, roaring and shouting, and soon they rushed to the position of the northern army, where there were still a few northern troops doing to resist.
"Kill!"
"The southern ghosts are fighting with you!"
A few brave and fearless soldiers of the Northern Army, armed with rifles, rushed towards the rushing Southern Army.
However, he was soon killed by the rushing Yugoslav army with bayonets, and more often was killed by bullets.
Of course, the most are the ones who have long been defeated and abandoned their positions and fled, but they are no better, and if they give their backs to the enemy, then they will be close to death.
During the rout, many people were hit by bullets from the Yugoslav army, and many more were inserted from behind with bayonets.
Of course, there were many people who surrendered on the spot, and the soldiers of the Southern Army hesitated for a moment, and also stabbed these Northern soldiers in the chest.
"Poof!"
"Why?" The captive of the Northern Army asked unwillingly, blood constantly coming out of his mouth, and the ground underground.
On the hill in the distance, Lincoln and the others who were being detained roared fiercely one by one: "No! You devils, how can you kill the captives! They have already surrendered, how can you. β
"Remember, we didn't kill it, you killed it, and because of your decision, this war happened, so they are paying for you." Yang Dongfang turned into a demonic beast at this time and criticized viciously, and there was no sympathy in his heart.
Only by the bloodiest method can the Federation be completely brought to its knees, and they must be praised spiritually, what is it to kill prisoners, and which time the great powers fought against China and did not kill prisoners.
Not killing captives only has rights among them white people, and when have they been polite to other races, so Yang Dongfang has no burden, you must know that it is the Southern Army who kills people, and you have to hate the alliance.
"You..!"
"You can choose to sign the treaty, so that the war is over, and no one will die in the future, do you need to be given paperwork?" Yang Dongfang asked, Lincoln and the others had red eyes, stared at him silently, shrugged and said:
"By the way, the Western American Empire can't be a state in California now, because His Majesty the Emperor Norton's royal army has already broken through Nevada and New Mexico, calculate the time, there is almost a force into Hungry Legon, so the map of the Western American Empire will include these states from now on."
"Don't you think about it!"
"Haha, don't worry, from now on, which state the Imperial Army army hits, which state will be the territory of the Western American Empire, so you don't have much time for you? Everyone, make a decision as soon as possible! Yang Dongfang ignored these angry bulls, and he came to Robert Lee to check the results.
"Special envoy, in this battle, we wiped out 8,000 federal troops, and we lost 600 of our own troops, these Northern troops are really not as good as Hancock's people in combat effectiveness, most of them are militiamen, and they will be crushed with one blow, and the turtle shell of the 10,000 army will be shattered by us when we knock it." Robert Lee explained the situation for a moment, and then said:
"If you want to destroy the remaining 20,000 Northern troops with the fastest and most beautiful force, you should cut off their last supply line, the Hudson."
Robert Lee pointed to Hudson City in the lower reaches of Albany, which was an important point of land and water transportation, where the railroad station met and the docks of the Hudson River, so it was now a heavy ammunition and food center for the Northern Army.
With the help of the Federation's navy, the original 30,000-strong army of food, grass and ammunition was a large number, all of which were raised from those cities that had not been hit, and were transported by Hudson.
Therefore, if you want to turn the guns and artillery of the 20,000 Northern Army into burning sticks, you must cut off this temporary transportation line.
Staring at Hudson, Yang Dongfang said: "Yes, it's good to leave it to me here, General Li is responsible for attacking the Northern Army with the troops in Albany City, I'll go and destroy their last supply place, calculate the time, Hancock's troops should arrive in Schenectady, the general must not let the 20,000 Northern Army and Hancock's 10,000 people converge, otherwise it will be difficult to annihilate them all." β
Robert Lee nodded in his heart, the people brought by Hancock are all elites, all veterans of the regular army, drawn from the battlefield on the Eastern Front, originally to intercept Yang Dongfang in the Great Lakes, but as a result, he chased all the way to the northeastern states, and the journey was also very long, and it was a lot of hard work.
"By the way, the envoy, where are the two thousand troops going, there are only five thousand people in Albany City." Regardless of Robert Lee's this time, Yang Dongfang didn't transport more than 10,000 people to the northeast, excluding the 3,000 casualties, adding up to only 8,000, Robert Li naturally asked, Yang Dongfang didn't hide it from him, and told him that he still had 2,000 troops attacking around Lake Ontario.
Robert Lee also laughed at this time, he didn't expect the envoy to be so cunning, as if he was taking precautions, so that Lincoln would not give in at that time, and when the 20,000 Northern troops were eliminated, he could come to attack Hancock's 10,000 elites from the east and west, and completely solve all the Union troops in the Northeast states.
However, he didn't want that day, because if he did, the damage of his troops would not be less at that time, and in the battle, you would die a thousand, and I would lose 800.
If the war can be resolved as soon as possible and peacefully, it would be better to shed less blood, after all, what a pity it is for those who died in the last battle.
With Robert Lee staring at him, Yang Dongfang immediately ran towards Hudson City, and dozens of horses left in the dust, hiding under the vast night.
A day later, it appeared near Hudson City, but the Northern Army was ready for how slow and bad the combat strength was, and Hudson City deployed 4,000 heavy troops, as well as federal naval warships to assist in the defense.
"It's been a long time since I've built a warship, and it looks like I need someone from the guard regiment to come over! They only got along. β
After daytime reconnaissance, Yang Dongfang found that Hudson actually had an armored gunboat, which made him itch, there are not many such things now!
Originally, he wanted to bring a thousand men out of Albany, but now he changed his mind and simply returned to Baltimore, bringing his own guard regiment and a thousand Southern troops.
Of course, he did not attack Hudson at the beginning, but attacked down the river, destroying the waterway first, ordering sappers from all over the country to dig up the mud, sand and gravel, find a narrow body of water, and directly fill the river, so that the Union Navy and transport ships could not obtain supplies and ammunition from downstream.
Then attack downstream along the railway, burn Germantown, Sogertis, Kingston, Poughkeepsie, and dismantle the railway. Dismantle their transport lines by land, while burning down the nearest cities downstream to raise supplies.
Sure enough, after the waterway was blocked, Hudson's northern army had to get nervous, and the northern army in Castleton had to split a group to go to Hudson to take over the defense here, and the northern army that had been defending here went south in advance to find the southern army that sabotaged the railway.
Because they detected that the southern army led by Yang Dongfang only had about 1,000 people, and the fact was that Yang Dongfang hid 1,000 people, so Hudson's northern army sent 3,000 people south, of which 1,000 cavalry roared to accompany them, and they couldn't let the southern army sweep Newcastle and Woodbury downstream, otherwise they would not even have a problem with food.
