William. Sherman was born in Lancaster, Ohio, and there are several names in the United States, including in California, because Lancaster is a British dynasty, which means that there are colonists with this surname.

At this time, Sherman can be described as a great achievement, he was ambitious before, he wanted to get the whole of California back!

But when he arrived in El Paso, he crossed the Rio Grande into Mexican territory and built a long trench, and Sherman felt that his goal would be difficult to achieve.

"That Imperial soldier shoots accurately!"

“SIR！ I couldn't even see my opponents, but they could hit me, and luckily I only lost an ear. ”

"The soldiers of the other side are like ghosts......"

I've been in Mexico for a long time, but I don't know when I started to report almost every day that our opponents can kill and injure our people, and our soldiers in the United States can't do anything.

It's so weird! It's really weird!

As a famous general, Sherman was known for his ferocity, cruelty, and ruthlessness, and he left an indelible memory of this place during the Battle of Vicksburg in 1862, because this place was almost erased by him!

After that, Sherman joined the sequence of the Battle of Atlanta, and the fight was called a ruthless one. It was here that he proposed the 'March to the Sea', which was approved by his superiors, and Atlanta, the economic powerhouse of the South, was left with almost no complete houses!

Such one, fierce, brave. Ruthless professional soldiers. Sherman has really seen everything. He wasn't afraid of anything, otherwise he wouldn't have killed so many people even though his men had done it, but now.

Faced with such a situation, Sherman felt a little scared!

It's really scary, anyone who faces this platoon of casualty reports all day long, the key is that we don't know where the opponent is hitting us, although the number of these casualties seems to be small, but they accumulate day by day. It's scary.

Right now, 5,000 of the 50,000 troops brought by Sherman have been lost!

Most of these individuals died, of course, not many died on the spot, more died in hospital beds, you know, the current doctors......

Sherman felt like he was called a butcher by many people, but when he saw those so-called doctors, he felt chills in his heart. Because the eyes of those doctors are definitely colder than his butcher!

No way. The so-called medical treatment in this era, especially on the battlefield, is ...... Amputation, amputation, amputation, amputation......

The doctor's closest comrades-in-arms are the bone saws in their hands, and all kinds of strangely shaped knives, do you think they are really different from butchers?

Of course, although the troops are losing, but the tradition of the Sherman troops has not been lost, and when it comes to Mexico, it is still the three-light policy!

However, this place is a remote part of Mexico, and it's poor!

Anyway, it wasn't quite satisfactory, Sherman felt a little aggrieved, but something happened today that made him feel very weird.

There is nothing left in the trenches of the American Empire!

This is simply too strange, if nothing else, now that empire is dominant, but they actually retreated, how is this possible?

You know, the information that this opponent has retreated, I'm afraid that the soldiers of the United States only discovered it after the opponent ran away for several days!

Because I'm afraid, I don't dare to show my head...... The reason why it feels strange is that no one has been shot in the past few days, so they have the courage to go outside to take a look.

Sherman perfectly understands the psychological state of the soldier, which is normal and not ashamed, but not ......

Why did the empire withdraw?

And the most important thing is, what should I, the general of the United States, do now? Do you want to chase it?

For this problem, Sherman, who is very experienced, is very clear, and must not attack rashly, because this may be a trap, and he is very careful now.

However, there is no enemy in front of him, and his army is still nesting in the trenches, which seems to be unreasonable?!

That's right, if this is the case, then Sherman will not be mixed up in the future? Will there still be a place for him in the army?

"Someone! Send me a report to Washington! ”

“YES-SIR！”

You really don't want to say it, just to fight this battle, but also to promote the development of the local society, Del Naute used to have a fart telegram.

"Record!"

“YES-SIR!”

"The enemy in front of our army, that is, the Second Army of the American Empire, has somehow abandoned its own position and is nowhere to be found, please give instructions on the next step...... Army Major General William. Sherman......"

This telegram, needless to say, came to Washington over the mountains in the wire, and was then translated, and soon reached the War Department.

"Huh?" When the old fellow Cameron got this telegram, a series of messages flashed in his head!

Don't forget, this old guy also has an intelligence network in the United States in the Empire, and that is the only intelligence network in the United States in the Empire!

…… Actually, on this point, Li Mengyang is a little too acting, because he is not sure how many spies the United States of America has arranged in his empire, and he will not believe what Pinkerman said about them, because it is likely that Pinkman himself does not know if there are other spies, this is a basic principle of spies, so Li Mengyang has been pretending to be sick and staying in the hospital......

After Cameron got Sherman's telegram, he ran directly to the White House to find Lincoln!

"Mr. President! Good news! Good news! ”

"What's the good news?" In the face of such an enthusiastic Cameron, Lincoln was a little scared.

Because Cameron, the old man, is also relatively dry, and his face is very pale, this smile. Long mouth. It's like a vampire.

"Let's have a meeting! Research how to retake California! "Cameron, of course, doesn't know what the image he gives to others is. He was still talking enthusiastically.

But, retake California?!

Lincoln's eyes lit up immediately......

It didn't take long for several of Lincoln's cabinet members to come, or those four old buddies, because these four people were Lincoln's most trusted, and they were also the most capable and powerful in his cabinet, as long as they could reach an agreement. Then everything else is OK.

"Take back to California?"

"Is it that simple?"

"The railroad is repaired?"

The other three, Secretary of State Ward, Secretary of the Treasury Chase, and Attorney General Best, all felt that this matter was a bit nonsense.

Why did you Cameron say you could get California back?

"Gentlemen, look!" Cameron didn't say much, he directly showed the telegram given by Sherman.

"This ......"

What does this mean?

Yes, the other side has withdrawn its troops, that's all, what does it mean?

And you know, things on the battlefield. Don't look at most of these guys who haven't participated in the war, it seems that Lincoln fought with Cameron. But they also understand that the opponent has retreated, so don't go up lightly, it is likely to be a trap!

In fact, white people are very familiar with this trap, because in the history of Europe, there was a particularly famous battle and character a long time ago, just say this character, Western military strategists call this person the god of war, and his name is Hannibal!

HANNIBAL. Baca was a famous general of Carthage, an ancient country in North Africa, and one of the most important military contributions in this person's life was that he made a crescent formation!

To put it simply, that is to let your middle army advance, feint, and then pretend that it can't be done and retreat, but the two wings do not move, the two wings should be there like two pincers, and then when the opponent follows the middle army in, okay, this is surrounded!

If it is us Chinese, when we hear such a method of warfare, hey, is there anything difficult about this thing?

It's too simple, okay?

But it was such a tactic that made Hannibal almost invincible at that time, and also made future generations tout him as a god of war!

Actually, many people don't know how the war in Europe was fought, let's just say that Li Mengyang doesn't know, but how much he has seen it, it is the kind of queuing up to shoot the North and South in the current civil war in the United States, in ancient times, they were not queuing up to shoot, but the queue was good, dense, and then the two sides cut each other!

That's how the Europeans fought wars, fought for more than 2,000 years, and that's what they did, simply put, to fight a dumb war.

Therefore, in the current matter, even if several members of Lincoln's cabinet have never been on the battlefield, they also understand that maybe this is a big trap in front of them!

But right away, Cameron shook out the information he got about California!

"Gentlemen! You see, these are the cases of that tyrant in California, it's been more than half a year, and he hasn't left that hospital until now, you know, if he's really fine, it's like he often gives speeches, hahaha...... Gentlemen, you see, this guy is giving speeches on the balcony of the hospital, and you say, is there something wrong with this tyrant?! ”

Don't you really say it, just let these things out, then the people in this White House are all monkey spirits, how can they not understand?!

"Could it be that the tyrant is really going to die? And now he wants his most trusted general to go back, just to arrange the issue of rights! Attorney General Best brushed up on the suspicion, and as far as he analyzed, in fact, others also thought of it.

"This ...... It's true? Chase couldn't believe it, and besides, don't forget that his daughter was still married to Clint. Li, after all, it's his daughter, and she was widowed at such a young age, this ......

Call you stupid daughter disobedient!

Okay, Chase's mental activity is more complicated, but that's it......

"Gentlemen, I've always felt that something is wrong with this, that tyrant, could he die so easily? I've heard that they seem to have more advanced medicine there......" This was said by Sward, because he had been in London before, and that Liszt had said it, and he had shown it, although he didn't really show his hand.

"Impossible!" Then Cameron immediately came and said, "What kind of bullshit country are they a bunch of uncivilized Chinese!" What can be advanced? ”

Yes, medicine, that's a tall thing, and the United States can only see legs and arms, right?

"So, gentlemen, may we order General Sherman to march?" When Lincoln heard this, he actually had an idea in his heart...... (To be continued......)

PS: Thank you for the black car! Thank you so much!

In addition, let's talk about the U.S. election, that is, why did the black car say that Trump is a far-right, it's very simple, the black car said in the last book, rightist thought is actually the philosophy of the strong, everyone looks at Trump, he is a successful businessman, so he was born a rightist, but but, hehe, why is his polls so high? The reason is simple, that is, such a far-right, in a bad situation, the public will think that he is a leftist, a reformer, I don't believe everyone to read Trump's remarks, hey, isn't it new? Right...... Okay, without further ado, we'll talk again when we have a chance.
