"Baltoni, have you thought about it. Even if we can break through the Iroquois encirclement, where will we go after that? When Bartoni yelled at the big guy with hatred of iron, someone finally spoke. You must also know the Indians, in the plains and forests, swamps and grasses, the Indians are as powerful and strange as ghosts, and there is no way for us to escape their pursuit. ”

Because everyone knew the power and means of the Indians, when this person said this, a look of concern appeared on everyone's faces.

"If it's still winter, maybe we don't have to worry about it. But now that winter has passed, spring has arrived. ”

This man's words silenced Bartoni as well.

He admitted that there was nothing wrong with what the person who had spoken.

Even if they break through the siege, they will begin to face the pursuit of the Indians.

The pressure and the pressure they will have to face will be almost as brutal as being stationed in Quebec City.

At that time, everyone will have to worry about everything all the time like a frightened bird.

The Iroquois natives would attack as they marched, as they ate and slept, whenever they wanted.

In the grass, behind the trees, behind the soil.

God knows when, from what angle, an arrow or blow arrow will be shot and their lives will be taken.

This kind of scene makes people shudder just by imagining it.

"You're right." , Bartoni nodded, acknowledging that the other party was right. However, he still insisted on what he thought was the choice, saying: "But even so, I still think that we have to break through, and only then can we have a glimmer of hope of survival." ”

He looked at everyone very seriously, and his expression was very serious.

"I don't think anyone here wants to die. Everyone wants to live, right? ”

Faced with this question from Bartoni, everyone said in their hearts 'this is nonsense'.

Yes, who wouldn't want to live.

But as long as it is a person, he does not want to die.

This is also a very normal thing.

Unless it's the kind of pervert who is born with self-destructive tendencies, no one wants to die.

"It seems that everyone thinks that what I said is very right, so if everyone wants to live, why not fight for their own lives. If we succeed, we will be able to live. ”

Bartoni said to everyone very seriously.

Hearing Bartony's words, everyone fell silent.

No one said that what he said was wrong.

Without waiting for everyone to speak, Bartoni continued: "Since someone asked. Where can we go after we break through? So I can tell you here that we don't have nowhere to go, at least in my plan we have a place to go, and it's very safe. ”

His words made everyone look at it excitedly.

"Bartony, where are you going? Don't sell it, tell us soon. ”

Baltoni put his hands on the table in front of him, leaned forward slightly to look at everyone, and said very seriously: "After we break through here." We can retreat all the way to the south, where there is a very strong country, where we can be very safe. ”

When Bartoni said the last part of his plan, everyone exclaimed.

"yes. Why didn't we think of that place? ”

"Are you talking about the city of Manhattan?"

"Yes, if we can retreat to that place, then safety is guaranteed. With the Iroquois, there is no way to argue with each other. ”

The French in Quebec. Also very aware of the things in the city of Manhattan.

After all, there were many French ships in Manhattan that bought goods there, and some even arrived in Quebec from Europe. Then I went to Manhattan to buy groceries.

"Baltony, your plan is indeed very good, but I am still a little worried. We are not familiar with each other, and even if we retreat to Manhattan, why should they protect us? ”

A different view and concern was raised.

As soon as this person spoke, the originally happy group fell silent again.

Yes, why should the people of that kingdom receive them and provide them with security?

This makes no sense.

Besides, if the Song people of Manhattan had taken them in, they would have to be at odds with the Iroquois.

And they have no way to give the Song Empire any benefits, so there is no need for people to offend the Iroquois because of these people.

Looking at the big guy who fell silent again, Barnik smiled calmly.

"Rest assured, I'm pretty sure we'll be in Manhattan for support and safety. It's just that there is a premise for this, and that is that we can break through and get to the city of Manhattan smoothly. ”

Bartoni's words once again lifted the big guy's mental head.

Everyone looked at Baltoni with a calm smile on his face, and they didn't know what Bartoni was so confident about.

"Why would you say that? Is there some reason for this that we don't know? ”

Soon, there were smart people who guessed something.

It's just a pity that the guess is a little too different from the truth.

Bartoni didn't want to hide anything, after all, there was no point in hiding it at a time like this.

So, Bartoni told everyone why he was so confident.

"You still don't know what to do, our lord of Quebec, Lady Sarah, has become the woman of the crown prince of the Song Empire. That is, the future queen of an empire, of course, this queen is only ranked second, because people in the Song Empire can marry many wives, which is not the same as ours. ”

Not! That's why.

After listening to Bartoni explain the reason, everyone's eyes lit up.

If what Baltoni said was true, then they could really go to Manhattan.

As a lord of Quebec, Ms. Sara would not let them go.

As for how Bartoni knew about these people, no one has ever inquired about it now.

In short, his plan is very feasible.

"It's a good plan. However, it is estimated that there will not be many people who can break through and survive. The old, weak, sick and disabled in this fortress are estimated to be impossible for us to take away. ”

Someone sighed deeply and said that there was a place in this plan that could not be taken care of.

Yes, the breakout is not for everyone.

Those in the fortress who can't hold weapons have no way to follow everyone.

Even if they were lucky enough to follow everyone out of the city, they wouldn't be able to escape the Iroquois on the road.

In short, this plan can only allow those strong elites to escape smoothly and save their lives. As for the others. There are no guarantees.

Bartoni also sighed, "This plan is already very good, compared to everyone dying here together, it is already very good." ”

Yes, there is nothing wrong with what Bartoni said.

Rather than die in the Quebec fortress with everyone, it is better to fight your way out of the city of Manhattan.

Besides, with Ms. Sarah on the Manhattan side, they won't be left without a place to live.

"Bartony, I just heard you say that you don't have two paths? Now that you've only mentioned one of them, what's the other way out of this predicament? ”

This time. Someone suddenly remembered what Bartoni had just said, and asked.

"Oh, actually, these two paths of mine are also related to Manhattan." Bartoni replied. "Considering that Ms. Sara is married to the crown prince of the Song Empire, then Quebec, as Ms. Sarah's personal domain, will definitely be incorporated into the Song Empire."

When Bartoni said this, everyone seemed to understand.

But listen to him continue: "Then we can think about it. Since our Quebec belongs to the Song Empire, wouldn't the Iroquois attacking Quebec mean that they are fighting against the Song Empire? All we had to do was send someone out of Manhattan and find Ms. Sarah's words. Then Miss Sara won't leave us alone. ”

Bartoni sat down again and told everyone his second plan.

"With Miss Sarah's help, and the territory here in Quebec is also Ms. Sarah's private territory, it is reasonable that the Song Empire will help us, and it is very likely that we will send troops. Therefore, my second way is to ask the Song Empire to send troops to solve the crisis for us. ”

Speaking of which, Baltoni said to everyone earnestly: "We can't count on the mainland, and if I want to say, it's more reliable to count on reinforcements from Manhattan." After all, they are very close to us, and it only takes a short time to get to us. But we need to pick some people out and let them stand out from the encirclement. ”

What's this...... Yes, these people who go to Manhattan do have to be well chosen.

First of all, they had to be strong enough to get out of the city, as there were so many Iroquois people outside. At the same time, they had to be able to evade the Iroquois and escape from the attacks of the natives.

Ordinary people must not be able to do it, it must be those who have a lot of dealings with the indigenous people and are familiar with everything here.

Of course, there are no such people.

Many French people have lived in the Americas for years.

Like the Indians, they lived by hunting.

Therefore, they all have good skills.

You must know that when the Indians learn from the whites, the whites are not learning from the Indians.

Besides, there were quite a few vassal Indian warriors in the fortress. Because of this war, they were forced to enter the fortress.

In this war, these indigenous Indians, who were vassals of the French, came in handy.

It was because of their presence that the French were able to repel numerous Iroquois attacks during these months.

Not all of these Indians, who were vassals of the French, entered the fortress, and many more tribes were scattered around the perimeter of the fortress.

During these months, they also continued to attack the Iroquois, preventing them from attacking the fortress wholeheartedly.

Without these Indians, it is estimated that the fortresses of Quebec would either have fallen, or the pressure would have been several times greater.

"So what do you think of these two paths?" After saying that, Bartoni asked. He said everything that should be said now, and also offered two options for everyone.

Now it's up to us to see which one the big guy chooses.

Seriously, there are pros and cons to both options.

After some discussion, everyone unanimously chose the second option, which was to send someone to Manhattan for help.

Now that the choice has been made, the rest is simple.

They just need to pick some suitable people to come out and run out as death squads now.

However, the candidates for these death squads need to be carefully selected. It's not just a matter of being bold and not afraid of death, don't send a man to die at the hands of the Iroquois, it will delay the big thing.

"Pick some of the warriors of the Qazi tribe, they have been warriors for generations, and they are very good at hiding themselves in the forest. I believe they can easily evade the Iroquois attack, and we can send some elite warriors to accompany us, after all, we will have to find Count Sara in Manhattan. ”

In the end, it was Baltoni who set the tone.

With Baltoni setting the tone, then the rest is simple.

"It's spring and it's foggy in the morning. The daredevils could attack from the southern gate and cross the St. Lawrence River to the opposite bank, which the Iroquois would not have been able to spot. After all, the river was full of thick white fog in the morning, and as long as they were careful, it would not be difficult to enter the forest at the southern end. ”

After the daredevils had made their selections, Bartoni began to plan and draw.

Yes, the spring of the American continent at this time has a very large fog.

Visibility is even a meter, and it's still indistinct.

Because of the temperature difference and the abundance of plants in this era, it is also common to produce this kind of dense fog.

It is because of this natural phenomenon that Europeans hate spring, autumn and summer in the Americas, because Indians are very active in these three seasons.

As a result, most of the conflicts between whites and Indians were also during these three seasons. In particular, spring and autumn are the most common in spring and autumn, when dense fog occurs.

Because of the thick fog, the Indians had enough to make the Europeans suffer.

The buzzword 'Indian Spring' has been circulating in the mouths of the Europeans for no reason.

Europeans, on the other hand, are very fond of winter.

Because the Indians basically don't come out in winter, Europeans love winter very much.

However, this annoying season and fog have become a lifesaver for the French. (To be continued.) )
