Chapter 343: A Chance to Breathe

What would happen to a group of Iroquois warriors armed with flintlock pistols, blowguns, throwing axes, clubs, and other weapons when they ran headlong into the main force of the Han Imperial Forest Army?

Judging from the comparison of a real battle example in the history of Zhao Dutian's previous life, the Iroquois were even worse than the original Second Opium War, facing the elite iron cavalry of the Eight Banners and the main force of tens of thousands of green battalions of the British and French coalition forces!

The battle of tens of thousands of people on both sides was divided in just half a day!

First, the main Iroquois force, which felt that it was invincible in the world, launched an exciting charge, and then under the howitzers of the Han Empire, groups were beaten into flesh and blood, and finally under the neat row of guns, the whole army of crying father and mother collapsed......

This is a classic modern army slaughtering the feudal army, and even if many Iroquois soldiers have flintlock muskets in their hands, the result will not change!

Even the Iroquois didn't even have a chance to fight back!

The strength and number of artillery of the Han Empire, even the British feel ashamed, let alone these Iroquois mud legs?

After a baptism of shrapnel, there are not many Iroquois soldiers who can enter the range of the Han Imperial Forest Army's hard-armed flintlock pistols......

When the remaining Iroquois mad warriors in the front row were all turned into a sieve, the remaining remnants of the Iroquois main force would inevitably collapse!

Obviously, Zhao Dutian will not let go of these Iroquois main soldiers, these Iroquois people have fought head-on with courage and are useless, but hiding in the jungle and mountains to fight guerrillas, they can still create a lot of tragedies, if the Han Empire was at its peak, it would naturally not care about the guerrilla warfare that could not be put on the table, but the current Han Empire, even the young and strong, naturally do not want to continue to lose valuable troops, even if it is cannon fodder composed of Native Americans!

As a result, more than 5,000 Han light cavalry, wielding sabers and revolver carbines, pursued the defeated Iroquois warriors for dozens of miles!

The battle location chosen by Zhao Dutian was prepared for the pursuit and killing, and within a radius of thousands of miles, all of them were gentle and open vision, which could maximize the speed advantage of the cavalry!

As a result, the Iroquois Alliance, which was able to gather tens of thousands of tribal warriors, died on the border of the California region!

I have to say that the British were very disappointed with this result, and at the same time scolded the stupidity of the Iroquois many times behind their backs!

Is it true that you are invincible after a few victories?

Dare to face the Royal Forest Army adapted from the most elite guards of the Han Kingdom, and especially choose a plain to face the shell!

They deserve to be killed!

However, curse to curse, the Iroquois League is a complete abolition, and the British have to continue to lick their wounds in the North American colonies, busy building fortresses and fortifications all day long, even the most optimistic British generals, dare not take the initiative to attack the core of the Han Empire, California!

The headquarters of the Iroquois Grand Alliance, where the main force was slaughtered, showed signs of division the day after the news was received, and the Iroquois Alliance, which was originally united and stable, showed signs of splitting!

The tribal chiefs who had suffered a great loss of strength cursed loudly to the person in charge of organizing this expedition, and those in charge were naturally not to be outdone, and replied that this was a decision made by everyone at the alliance meeting!

Anyway, all the tribes are greatly damaged, no one wants to threaten anyone, it's a big deal to hurt each other, see who exterminates the clan first!

The ferocious nature of the Indians completely broke out at the meeting of the Iroquois League!

Fire is naturally impossible, the warriors who can fight in the various tribes of the Iroquois Grand Alliance have all died in California, at this time, if the fire is combined, can women, children and the elderly also fight to the death?

Although no real war broke out, the Iroquois Alliance's mutual trust was gone, and the entire alliance was truly separated, returning to its original loose tribal alliance, and the Iroquois Alliance was dead in name only, except for a nominal one!

If it weren't for the great loss of the strength of the various tribes in the Iroquois Alliance, and the fear that the small tribes around them would covet it, I'm afraid that the name of the Iroquois Alliance would not have been left!

Zhao Dutian naturally has no interest in paying attention to the internal division of the Iroquois who are no longer a threat, the base camp of the Iroquois Alliance is far away in Canada, if he wants to go on an expedition, he must first defeat all the forces of the British North American colonies, otherwise, during his expedition, the British will come to a 'monkey stealing peaches' to enter the California region, Zhao Dutian will have fun!

This is the reason why the main force of the Han Imperial Forest Army does not dare to transfer out of California, fighting a huge North American colony, the Han Imperial Forest Army with only more than 30,000 people will definitely not be able to bear it, and it will not dare to go, so it can only guard its own industrial core......

In the same way, the anti-Han alliance is naturally not willing to take risks easily, and the British colonies all over the world will re-accumulate a lot of wealth over time, and the colonies around the country can also rearm new troops, even if the quality cannot be compared with the elite who have been gathered and annihilated, but as long as the number goes up, it can also form a crushing situation!

The British were not armed with the Iroquois 'warriors'!

Therefore, the anti-Han alliance believes that delaying time is on its own side!

According to the data in reality, it is absolutely unfavorable for Zhao Dutian to drag it down, but Zhao Dutian's biggest reliance is not the existing territory and manpower, but the technology given by the Age of Empires system!

During this period of confrontation, the Han Empire did not do nothing!

First of all, the Tiger Wolf Marines, who had spent a lot of money in South America to replenish Indian veterans and restore the establishment of 10,000 people, were transferred to the West Coast ports of North America by unknown people. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

There are also a few young veterans in the American National Guard!

Well, the young and strong soldiers in the American National Guard who can survive until now are basically veterans......

These young veterans were organized into the Japanese Expeditionary Corps, appointed Lieutenant General Wang Qiming as the commander of the corps, the entire legion was equipped with hundreds of advanced artillery, and all the transport ships accumulated by the Han Empire over the decades were filled with ammunition accumulated during the war subsidence stage!

At the same time, ninety percent of the sail battleships built by the Han Empire, including five first-class sail battleships, formed a huge escort fleet!

Although the Han Empire did not invest much in the navy due to perennial land warfare, it has accumulated more than 50 ocean-going warships of various types over the past 40 years!
