September 26, 1862 is a day that must be recorded in world history classes in all countries, because on this day, the 926 Incident broke out, which triggered the Sino-American war and changed the situation in the world.

In the records of mainstream history textbooks in later generations, most of them describe the 926 incident as follows:

On the evening of September 26, 1862, at about 6 o'clock in the afternoon, near the town of Xinsheng, thirty miles north of Hollywood, one hundred and sixty-two masked thieves ransacked a trading convoy belonging to the Eastern Bloc of the Chinese Empire.

During the looting, due to the ferocity of the robbers and the sudden attack, all 32 escorts in the trading team died.

What makes people angry is that the robbers not only robbed and killed people, but also beheaded the deceased, and erected the deceased's heads on the side of the road with poles, and each pole hung a white cloth banner with six large red characters written in Chinese "The fate of Chinese dogs".

Just as the robbers were escorting the trade convoy away, a 30-man Red Fort garrison arrived in time, and a fierce exchange of fire broke out near the Red Clay Ridge.

During the exchange of fire, both sides suffered mutual damage, and because the garrison was too small in number, they were slightly defeated, but the robbers, afraid of being dragged down, hurriedly threw down a large amount of goods, and only robbed a total of 121 kilograms of gold and fled.

According to statistics, 17 of the 32 members of the trade team killed during the conflict were 17 Chinese, 6 British, 2 French, 2 Germans and 5 Americans.

In a later exchange of fire between the robbers and the garrison, 12 more people died, seven of whom were identified as members of the robbers and five of whom were members of the garrison.

After a post-mortem investigation, the identities of the seven robber members were all confirmed, including one who was the youngest son of the then San Francisco City Councillor, the second son of the then mayor of San Francisco, and the other five. One was a police officer in San Francisco at the time, and four were members of the California National Guard stationed in San Francisco.

It is particularly noteworthy that among the 32 members of the trade team who were killed, one of the Chinese was particularly important and was a member of the royal family of the Chinese Empire at that time, so this killing also caused the wrath of the Chinese Empire.

In the aftermath, the Chinese Empire took the lead in attacking, and without a reasonable response from the city of San Francisco and the state government of California, the Chinese Imperial garrison of the Red Fort in Hollywood took the initiative to attack the city of San Francisco. and quickly occupied San Francisco.

Fifteen days later, the Chinese Empire and Britain declared war on the United States, and a month and a half later, France joined the declaration of war on the United States.

After that, China, Britain, and France formed an alliance with the Confederate States of America in the south to form the Four-Nation Alliance, which completely began the war of the Four-Power Union against the United States, and after this war, the Great American States of America on the North American continent was completely divided into many regions. Therefore, it is also called the North American Partition War.

Historical accounts are always too simplistic, in fact, the 926 incident that triggered the North American Secession War was purely a script directed and performed by the Chinese Empire. The name of the plan is called Plan A.

However, since Project A has never left any accurate records and has never been declassified, some people have guessed the truth in later generations. But it's not the mainstream argument.

In fact, in that 926 incident, the so-called robbers were all pretended by the Chinese themselves. The so-called Chinese who were killed were all death row prisoners, but the British, French and Americans who were also killed among the 32 people were indeed innocent people who did not know the truth, including two respected priests.

After the looting, the garrison arrived in time, and the fierce exchange of fire between the garrison and the robbers was also a show, everyone just went to two places one after another, opened fierce fire on each other, causing the scene of a fierce exchange of fire between the two sides, and then put a few corpses in the place where the two sides exchanged fire.

Among them, the bodies of the "robbers" who were killed were all black hands of the secret agents in San Francisco in advance, and they targeted a few Americans who had a lot of weight in San Francisco to kidnap and kill them, and as for the Red Fort Garrison, those who were killed were also death row prisoners wearing the uniforms of the Red Fort Garrison.

Best of all, in addition to the exchange of fire between the "robbers" and the Red Fort garrison that arrived in time, many people heard the gunfire and howls during the fighting, and some people saw a large number of masked horsemen rushing towards the San Francisco area on the road, and these bystanders included not only Chinese, but also British, French, and Americans.

It's just that because it was getting late and the knights were masked, they couldn't see exactly what they looked like, but they just looked like some American cowboys.

At that time, after the incident, the garrison and police of the Red Fort in Hollywood arrived in time and cordoned off the scene to investigate and collect evidence.

After that, Wu Tingfang, the governor of the Red Fort area of Hollywood, still maintained relative restraint and did not let the garrison march to San Francisco immediately, but protested to the city of San Francisco and the California government, and asked the San Francisco city government and the California government to explain.

The city of San Francisco and the then California government were also shocked by this, but asked to send investigators to participate in the investigation, and Wu Tingfang actually agreed, but in view of the deaths of many people in the incident, especially the interests of the imperial enterprises of the Chinese Empire, they asked for the formation of an investigation team composed of personnel from China, Britain, the United States and France.

There is no doubt that after conducting a series of investigations, the joint investigation team all believed that the internal personnel of the San Francisco City Government were the ghosts, especially the bodies of the robbers, and the identities were undoubtedly confirmed, and the target of their suspicions was directly pointed at Howard, the mayor of San Francisco and the commander-in-chief of the San Francisco National Guard.

Next, the Governor's Office of the Red Fort in Hollywood, which had the evidence, lodged a strong protest with the San Francisco city government, demanding that the murderer and the looted gold jewels be handed over within seven days, especially the gold scepter that was supposed to be a tribute to His Majesty the Emperor of the Chinese Empire.

However, the other party was indifferent at all, except for sending someone to express some regret and other perfunctory.

In fact, it is not to blame the personnel of San Francisco City for being perfunctory, because they can't find the murderer at all, and they can't get the so-called thief's stolen goods, and seven days seems to be a long time, but since you can't find it at all, it doesn't matter how long it is.

As soon as the seven days were up, Wu Tingfang again protested against the California city government. After no result, Wu Tingfang officially declared war on behalf of the Red Fort Governor's Office to the city of San Francisco and the government of California.

On the third day after the declaration of war, the 1st Regiment of the Dream 1st Division, which was part of the Red Fort garrison, launched an all-out attack on San Francisco under the leadership of the regiment commander Bai Yunfei.

It took only one day for the regiment to drive from Hollywood to the National Guard defensive position five kilometers outside San Francisco, and then, without resting, it took only half a day to break through from the front, completely annihilate the 1st National Guard Division in the defensive position, and occupy the entire city of San Francisco in one afternoon.

In this marching process. There were four people who were greatly touched, and these four people were none other than Shi Dakai, Li Hezhang, Chen Yucheng and Peng Yulin, who belonged to the expeditionary force!

As early as more than half a month ago, the expeditionary force led by Shi Dakai arrived at the Red Fort in Hollywood, and since then, the expeditionary force has been placed alone, but Shi Dakai was personally received by Li Yongji.

As soon as they met, they realized that the person in charge of this place was not the governor Wu Tingfang, but the emperor of the Chinese Empire.

Although it was shocking. But after all, Shi Dakai went through wind and rain and soon calmed down. After that, he chatted with Li Yongji for a long time, and finally understood why the other party came here in person. It turned out that it was going to attack the United States.

At first, Shi Dakai didn't quite understand why the emperor took the risk of coming here, just to attack a distant United States, but after Li Yongji's painstaking explanation little by little. Only then did he understand the reason and know the term so-called geopolitical zhì.

It was precisely because he fully understood Li Yongji's intentions and ideas that Shi Dakai was convinced again. I don't think it's good to look at the emperor's youth, but this open-mindedness and that kind of atmospheric perspective are indeed incomparable to him.

Isn't it, Shi Dakai in the past, when he died and dreamed of being an emperor in China, when did he ever think of using the whole world as a stage? And how did you ever think of treating the entire Pacific Ocean as China's inland sea?

However, the young son of the Li family dared to think and dare to do it, and it seemed to be quite successful.

At that moment, Shi Dakai completely convinced Li Yongji, and he was willing to work under him.

After that, Li Yongji also personally took Shi Da to the military camp of the Dream Legion, and let him personally visit the equipment and training of the Dream Legion, which once again opened Shi Da's eyes, and felt that what he had learned before was almost outdated, especially those fierce rapid-fire weapons and extremely fast vehicles, which made his eyelids jump all the time.

However, although those equipment looked very powerful, after all, they were all exercises, and it was not clear what the situation would really be, so in the offensive operation of the first regiment of the Dream Division, Shi Dakai was allowed to accompany the army and be counted as an observer.

The reason why he was asked to join the army was because Li Yongji appreciated him more and wanted to train him and familiarize him with the combat style of the modern army in advance, so that he could have a definite goal when commanding similar troops in the future.

Why do you want him to command similar troops in the future?

The reason is very simple, that is, Li Yongji feels that he is an emperor after all, and it is impossible to always do it himself in the future, and he always needs someone to march and fight instead of him.

In Li Yongji's plan, the Dream Legion will be the trump card mobile strike force under his own command in the future, in addition to being his own pro-army, he must also achieve global hegemony, so he needs to find a reliable person, so that he can replace himself in command at critical moments, and Shi Dakai is one of his candidates for replacing the commander-in-chief.

Although Li Yongji now has many close generals under his command, most of them have too little experience, while Shi Dakai has rich combat experience, is young enough, and knows how to understand current affairs.

It was with this idea in mind that Li Yongji let Shi Dakai contact this fantasy legion, you know, because the equipment of the fantasy legion is too sensitive, it all relies on Li Yongji to personally "import", which is the descendant of the lineage, and other idle outsiders don't know the details at all, and it is already a favor to let him know.

Originally, when the first regiment of the Dream Legion started the actual battle, Shi Dakai was the only outsider, but Shi Dakai asked to bring his subordinates to observe together, that is, the three regiment commanders of the expeditionary force.

According to Shi Dakai, during his tenure as commander of the expeditionary force, he had a good relationship with the three regiment commanders, and he also thought that they were very talented, so he hoped to give them a chance to visit this kind of modern warfare, and they would inevitably become His Majesty's right-hand man in the future.

Of course Shi Dakai's three regiment leaders, Li Yongji, knew, because whether it was Chen Yucheng, Li Hezhang or Peng Yulin. They are all people personally selected by Li Yongji, and they are originally famous generals in the world. These people may have a relatively small understanding of modern warfare, but most of them have a strong ability to adapt to emergencies, and they can be said to be all-encompassing in marching and fighting wars, and they can be completed with only a little dialing.

At the beginning, when Li Yongji formed the expeditionary force, he made it clear that he wanted to reuse and promote these people, but considering that these people had only been exposed to new things for a short time, he let them have a gradual learning process, that is, let them command the modern army first. And then slowly transition to a modern army.

In comparison, the commanders of the Dream Division are all young people who are young and vigorous but have little practical experience, for example, the three commanders of the Dream Division are Bai Yunfei, Li Fei, and Zhang Long, and the oldest of these three is only eighteen years old, and he is the first member of the Youth Guards Regiment that Li Yongji received. And it is the best of them, which is commonly known as the three heroes of the guard.

It is said that the three heroes of the Qin Wei are indeed outstanding, and the loyalty of Cheng Dù is even more incomparable to others, but at most they are in contact with new things relatively early. The time is relatively long, and it is better in theory, but there are still many shortcomings in actual combat.

Fortunately, the three heroes of the guards are led by modern motorized infantry. Fighting American conscripts in the nineteenth century, there is no pressure at all, I am afraid that I am afraid of accidents when I am young.

Other words. The expeditionary force led by Shi Dakai will complement each other with the Dream Division in the future, form a high and low match, and become a private mobile strike force directly under the emperor. And Shi Dakai and others and the three heroes of the guards are the candidates that Li Yongji chose for this hybrid mobile strike force.

For example, don't look at the Dream Division with the word "Dream", but this is not the official sequence of the Imperial Army, the real sequence of the Dream Division actually belongs to the Chinese Expeditionary Force of the Eastern Bloc.

That's right, the real combat sequence to which the Dream Division belongs is actually the Chinese Expeditionary Force, and the Dream Division is just a main division of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, but outsiders don't know this, and even Shi Dakai, the commander-in-chief of the Expeditionary Force, doesn't understand it.

In short, Shi Dakai and the others are all specially selected talents by Li Yongji, and originally hoped to let Shi Dakai understand first, and others take their time, but since Shi Dakai trusts his subordinates so much, it is good to let them see the power of the modern army in advance.

In this way, when the First Regiment of the Dream Division attacked the US troops in the San Francisco area, it brought Shi Dakai, Chen Yucheng, Li Hezhang, and Peng Yulin, and these three people only followed the regiment commander Bai Yunfei and observed the combat situation of this unit as observers who had no actual duties.

There is no doubt that the impact on these people during the battle is quite large, Shi Dakai is okay, after all, he has seen what this unit looks like during the exercise before, but for the other three, it is really surprising.

The firepower shown by this unit is not enough, and the new equipment such as those body armor can be somewhat understood, and they feel that it is not much different from the Imperial Praetorian Guard, but the mobility of those trucks and combat assault vehicles has given these three people an extremely strong impact.

In front of these motor vehicles, all horses and the like are weak, and they can really realize the dawn and the evening. With this powerful mobile transport capability, coupled with strong firepower and communication capabilities, the mode of warfare has indeed changed.

For example, when Bai Yunfei led the first regiment to attack the American division, he drove all the way over, and before the other party could react, he arrived at the opponent's position, and then did not line up, just took the loose squad as the node, spread it out in an all-round way, and then used the communication ability and the portable artillery he carried, such as mortars and recoilless guns, to come to the opponent with a burst of artillery fire.

When the opponent was beaten, one after another combat assault vehicles rushed over at full speed, while rushing fiercely, while using the machine guns above to strafe, and the rear was supported by mortars from time to time, and it did not take long to break the opponent's line.

After breaking down the opponent's line, these assault vehicles did not stop, and continued to charge and rush, using their powerful mobility and firepower to charge back and forth in the enemy array in a loose formation, even if the enemy's troops were all scattered.

In this way, with no losses on their own, the entire US army division was annihilated, and few people were able to escape, and most of them were either killed in battle or captured.

In this operation. Heavy machine guns, assault rifles, vehicle-mounted mortars, and vehicle-mounted recoilless guns have left a deep impression on people, and these weapons, when combined with combat assault vehicles, are simply invincible, and the enemy, no matter how large or small there are, has no resistance at all.

Shi Dakai found that in such a battle, one assault vehicle is a combat unit, and usually three assault vehicles can cooperate with each other and use their speed and firepower to rampage through the enemy array. If there are more of them, it won't stop them at all.

Afterwards, Shi Dakai summed up with Chen Yucheng and others, saying that if you want to intercept a unit like the Dream Division, unless you have stronger firepower, you can't stop the other party at all, and unless you have stronger mobility, you can't outrun the other party at all.

If you can't match the firepower, you can't match the speed. In the face of such a force, no matter how large the number is, it is useless.

Even, Chen Yucheng also pointed out that in the face of such a regiment. Not to mention a US National Guard division of less than 10,000 people, even if another 100,000 people come, it will not be used, and the firepower, speed, and communication ability are too far apart, and it is not a high-grade battle at all. It's all a battle between an adult and a baby.

In short, after this battle, Shi Dakai was fine. But Chen Yucheng and the others are very hot-eyed, and they all hope that they can lead a similar army to gallop across the battlefield in the future, and after a while, they can only beat you, but you can't beat me.

Although this simple battle touched Shi Dakai and the other four a lot, it was not something to be proud of for Bai Yunfei, because his dispatch was completely done in accordance with the textbook.

Among the three heroes of the guard, Bai Yunfei is not the oldest one, nor is he the most characteristic one, the reason why he can become the commander of the first regiment and get the first combat mission is entirely because he has the most stable personality.

Relatively speaking, Li Fei and Zhang Long's temperament is still a little impetuous, too aggressive, Li Yongji is fine when he personally leads, if they are released alone, I am always afraid that they will not be mature enough and mess around.

It is precisely because Bai Yunfei has a stable personality, is the most obedient, and never rushes forward, that Li Yongji is relieved to let Bai Yunfei lead the troops to attack.

After all, the Dream Division took Li Yongji's hard work, and losing anyone would make him feel distressed, so his requirement was zero damage, and the only one who could do this, in addition to using himself and himself, seemed to be the only one who could do this.

In addition, because of his calm temperament, Bai Yunfei has a good relationship with Shi Dakai and others, and he can be said to answer all the questions of Shi Dakai and others, and he does not have the slightest impatience, which is also very satisfactory to Li Yongji.

Of course, this is not to say that Li Fei and Zhang Long are not good, but after all, they are not as mature as Bai Yunfei in terms of mentality, and they still need some time to hone it. As for why Li Fei and Zhang Long let them be regiment commanders even though they were immature, it was very simple, their immaturity was only relative, but in terms of the management ability of the modern army and the loyalty to Li Yongji, being the regiment commander was more than enough.

In any case, San Francisco, a city of 100,000 people, was quickly taken over, and in 1862, with the gold rush sweeping, San Francisco was the most populous city in the entire California region, compared to Sacramento, known as the capital of California, with a population of just over 60,000.

Therefore, the capture of San Francisco means that half of the population of California is captured in the hands of Li Yongji, and when the time comes, Sacramento will be captured, which means that the entire California will fall into the hands of the Chinese Empire.

Moreover, San Francisco is not only the most populous city in California, but also the richest place in California, where more than seventy percent of the gold comes from, and the industrial system and extractive industry are also the most complete in California.

Li Yongji was not in the mood to talk to those Americans about human rights, he had already made up his mind, after the capture of San Francisco, all the people would become prisoners, and Li Yongji would go to mine and pan for gold and build roads, anyway, he would treat them as slaves.

I think that at the beginning, California in another time and space treated the Chinese as slave laborers, and since they looked down on the Chinese, then they didn't need to treat the whites preferentially, right?

What kind of democracy and human rights are all bullshit in front of rifles and bayonets, and this era does not pay attention to this.

This is the era of the great powers, and it is also the last colonial era, it is about whose fist is harder, the main theme is like this, if you play any democracy and human rights, then your head is in water.

Therefore, Li Yongji does not ask these white Americans in California to be grateful to Dade, but only asks them to become cheap laborers and serve the Li empire.

Not only will the white people in San Francisco become white slaves, and when they send people to take down Sacramento, the people in that city will also become slaves and serve as cheap labor for the Chinese here.

Who says white people are inherently superior? Whether it is noble or not, it is not the bloodline that has the final say, but whose fist is hard!

All in all, since the outbreak of the 926 Incident, the Chinese Empire led by Li Yongji finally began to attack the United States of America in person, and this incident also became the fuse of the North American Secession War, so that the United States of America finally became a second-rate country in the days to come, and could no longer grow into a superpower.
