Chapter 368: Under the Americas of Peace
Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Zhao Dutian actually didn't have much offensive power, in addition to the Han Imperial Forest Army, which was used to maintain the autocratic tyrant model, there were only about 100,000 Native American garrisons and less than 30,000 Clouey white guards left......
Needless to say, the combat effectiveness of the American garrison is no longer necessary, and it is no problem to use it to suppress localities, but if it is used to open a film with the militia of the thirteen colonies, where all the people are united, it is estimated that Zhao Dutian will prepare a new garrison again......
As for the Clouey Guard, although they are very capable of fighting, less than 30,000 people are really powerless, not to mention that South America still needs them to suppress it!
Zhao Dutian knew very well how terrible the sea of the people's war was, and the militia of the thirteen colonies of North America may not be elite, but no one dared to doubt their determination to defend their homeland!
Without absolute certainty, Zhao Dutian doesn't want to step into the quagmire with one foot, maybe it is easy to defeat the militia in North America, but if you want to occupy it, don't even think about it, even if you engage in genocide!
In the British colonies, there were more than 3 million white immigrants!
Every house has a musket, and children in their teens can shoot proficiently, and the old people are even more terrible, because their homes were taken from the Indians when they were young!
Not to mention that many old people also participated in the early British and French colonial wars!
These 3 million white civilians are colonists who believe in force in their bones, and as long as someone threatens the foundation of their survival, these people can pick up muskets and play with their lives without hesitation!
The reason why Zhao Dutian, who led the independent Washington of the United States in his previous life, could not establish a monarchical state, or even carry out a lifelong system, was because he knew very well that he was not leading millions of tax-paying lambs, but millions of colonial thugs with muskets and yearning for freedom!
So, Washington fulfilled his promise to make no political decisions with authoritarian tendencies, and retired from politics after eight years of appointment!
How many of the founding leaders retired from politics during their lifetimes?
The combat effectiveness of these millions of colonial thugs has also been reflected in a lot after the independence of the United States, the Spanish-American War, the Mexican-American War, and the American-Indian War have been fought all the way, and the 13 colonies in North America have been expanded to half of North America!
In the future, half of the southern continents of the United States were cut off from Mexican territory!
Therefore, even if he won a decisive victory in the naval battle, Zhao Dutian did not plan to really send troops to fight the millions of gun-wielding thugs in the thirteen colonies of North America inch by inch, if the anti-Han alliance did not agree to the request of ceding the North American colonies, Zhao Dutian planned to take advantage of the superiority of his own navy to completely cut off the lifeline between Europe and the colonies!
Even if it is delayed, the anti-Han alliance must be dragged down!
However, the countries of the anti-Han alliance were much more vulnerable than Zhao Dutian expected, and before he could use the procrastination trick, the other party relented......
The anti-Han coalition was willing to recognize all of South America (in ruins), including the Brazilian colony, as sacrosanct territory of the Han Empire......
When the Portuguese people heard the news, the whole country mourned......
British power has fully withdrawn from the Canadian region and the thirteen states of North America!
Well, just quit!
The British government would not move the whites of the colonies away, and they did not have that power......
The colonists who finally took root in the colonies were even more reluctant to leave their rich North American homeland!
Anyway, the British troops have been withdrawn, and the question of the arming of the remaining natives is none of their business, so to speak, the Thirteen Colonies of North America and Canada have become semi-independent autonomous states!
According to international practice, the Han Empire should send troops to replace the British, rule that area and collect taxes, but the white colonists in Canada and the thirteen colonies of North America are waiting with muskets one by one......
This is not a black slave with millions of combat power and no weapons!
The white colonists who are familiar with the terrain are absolutely qualified and capable of playing a guerrilla war of resistance against the Han Empire for decades......
For the now weak Han Empire, that would be too much to do!
Zhao Dutian didn't need to really occupy all the British North American colonies, he only needed them to nominally recognize the Han Empire as the suzerain, and it was enough to plant a pigeon battle flag!
Even if they are allowed to retain semi-independent autonomy, it will be no problem!
Anyway, the mission rewards of the Age of Empires system will be distributed as usual!
Yes, Zhao Dutian asked Britain to hand over the North American colonies for nothing else, just to do the task, now the Han Empire has a young and scarce population, and is in an embarrassing state of few people, even if the British North American colonies are conquered, it is just to create a large area of no man's land......
It doesn't make any sense to Zhao Dutian!
Instead of a loss-making war, it is better to have a mutually beneficial agreement!
In the end, the people of the North American colonies got the real right of semi-independent autonomy, and only needed to recognize the Han Empire as the suzerain, and use the pigeon flag of the Han Empire, while Zhao Dutian did not lose a single soldier to complete the reward of the unification of North America in the imperial era system - the Dingyuan ship!
At the same time, the semi-independent autonomy of the British North American colonies also made the faces of the countries of the anti-Han alliance look better, at least not too badly......
In this way, the American War, which lasted for 11 years, came to an end at the beginning of the 47th year of the Han Dynasty, and the civilians of the American continent, who had suffered the pain of war, finally ushered in the dawn of peace!
Compared to the almost extinct race in South America, the indigenous and civilian populations of North America are undoubtedly much more fortunate, and the loss of population is acceptable, except for the more dead and wounded soldiers......
Although this American War was confined to the American continent and did not spread all over the world like the European War, both the dead and wounded and the wealth consumed far exceeded the previous European War!
Of course, the death of so many people was mainly due to the long duration of the war, the addition of the new slaughter weapon Dreiser, and the large-scale massacre of Zhao Dutian and the black rout!
No one knows how many people died, but the number of deaths recorded in the Han Empire government alone has exceeded the 10 million mark!
This does not include the civilians slaughtered by the black rout!
After all, the government of the Han Empire at that time could not take care of there, and God knows how many natives were killed by the black armed forces?
It's just that by the time the Han army accepted South America, the indigenous people had almost disappeared......
The Great War of the Americas had a huge impact on the demographic component of the Han Empire, but it had little impact on the dictatorship, which was the victorious power!
On the other hand, the countries of the anti-Han alliance that have completely collapsed have a great impact!
