On February 25, 1858, the first major battle of the civil war between the North and South of the United States of America, the Battle of Delevingshire in Marysas, broke out.

To be honest, since the 16 southern states declared their independence and formally established the Union of America, a large-scale conflict between the north and south of America will come sooner or later.

But the outbreak was so fast, and it was the Northern Army that attacked first, which was a bit unexpected by Hong Tiangui earlier.

Hong Tiangui, who has been secretly developing eyeliner in the United States of America for several years, knows a lot of inside stories about the preparation stage of this war through the strongholds of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in various places.

For example, in the preparation of military supplies, the Northern Army was far inferior to the Southern Army.

In the past, it has always been the southern slave states that have prepared a lot of military supplies, intentionally or unintentionally.

In the North, probably because before the presidential election, the Republican Party never thought that Lincoln would directly become the commander of the United States through "succession", so it did not make any preparations for war in advance.

In the expectation of Hong Tiangui and even the high-ranking members of the Taiping Society, in the early stage of this war, the Northern Army should delay the real start of the battle as much as possible.

Because the industrial strength of the northern states far exceeds that of the south, the longer it is delayed, the more abundant the military supplies of the northern army will be, and the stronger it will be.

Hong Tiangui and other high-level officials of the Taiping Society really didn't calculate the situation in advance that the Northern Army launched a first-hand attack.

In the information fed back by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the commander-in-chief of the Northern Army was named Ulysses Grant, who commanded the army to launch a charge this morning, which can be said to have taken the Southern Army by surprise, and the 170,000 Northern Army pressed on all fronts, directly defeating the 50,000 front troops of the Southern Army.

If it weren't for the famous general of the Southern Army, Thomas Jackson, who happened to be inspecting the middle route troops, calmly commanded, led 70,000 Chinese troops in the south, repelled five full Northern army charges, and let the entire battlefield return to a stalemate confrontation, maybe at this time, the victory or defeat of this battle has appeared!

Modern warfare in the age of muskets itself cannot be like warfare in the information age, where satellites and computers can be used to make foolproof predictions while sitting in the command room.

Therefore, Hong Tiangui didn't think much about it, and asked the female Taoist priest Lin Miaoshan to continue to accompany the Su saintess to recover from her injuries, while he himself, after issuing a high-level summoning order in the Taiping Aura Network, quickly went to the conference building in the center of Taiping City.

"Comrades, the civil war in America has begun completely."

"Next, according to the plan we prepared earlier, arrange the next action!"

Sitting back on the main seat of this familiar conference hall, hundreds of young high-ranking members of the Taiping Society were sitting in front of Hong Tiangui.

"First of all."

"In the past half month, the cause of the sharp decline in the 'yellow slave trade' in Taipingyang, I have already found out, and the comrades of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs do not need to investigate this matter."

Before the raid of the Sioux saints at the banquet at the Sequoia Manor, the archbishop incarnated by the dark alchemist Ocedo Roosevelt personally said that the spiritual roots they needed had been raised to stop the yellow slave trade.

"Yes, Comrade President!"

Sitting on Hong Tiangui's left, as one of the current seven-member ruling group of the Taiping Society, Wu Tunan, Minister of Foreign Affairs, also had the authority to check Li Gu's "Red Shirt Manor Raid" operation report, so he nodded directly.

"The military can now send small mobile units to work with our comrades in various positions in America to raid railroad sites where our compatriots are still alive."

"In two months, completely rescue our compatriots!"

"Questions?"

After Hong Tiangui finished speaking, Huang Han, the military leader who had been following him from the Kolottilda at the front of his right hand, immediately nodded and said loudly with full of energy.

"Guaranteed completion of the task, Comrade President!"

The completion of the collection of spiritual roots allowed the workers of the Amerika Railway to not be limited to the people of Shenzhou, but to remove and rescue their compatriots in disguise, and the interference from the extraordinary dark forces.

And with the situation between the north and the south that has been aggravating and collapsing, the Taiping Society, which has been constantly rescuing its compatriots, has already marked all the railway construction sites where the remaining compatriots who have not been rescued, and this operation is only the final end.

The chaos brought about in the early days of the war had affected all aspects of the entire society of the United States of America.

The two American governments in the north and south, which encountered such a large-scale war for the first time, had no experience in maintaining stability, and the civil order continued to weaken in a short period of time.

"Next, we will determine the route of our base and development in the new era."

"After the rescue of our compatriots is completed, we need to immediately expand our maritime power and absorb more compatriots from Daqing in China to participate in our cause."

Hong Tiangui knocked on the table in front of him solemnly, and a projection map that everyone in the conference room could see, stood upright from the table and appeared in front of everyone.

"And, if we can, I hope we can expand into the colony of Naka!"

At present, although the population carried by the land around the valley of the Taiping Chengsai Base Area has not reached the limit, it is not far from the limit.

As the independent embodiment of Edward's contempt for the decaying East of this world, Hong Tiangui already has hundreds of thousands of young and strong industrial forces in his hands.

He and the Taiping Society, which inherited the ideas of Taipingism, as a whole, have become more and more dissatisfied with the existence of the current corner of peace.

The extraordinary strength is not weak, and the Taiping Society, which can arm an army of 100,000 at any time, if it were not for the constraints of the naval strength and the distance between Tai Pingyang, Hong Tiangui would have waved his hand at Shenzhou and made the emperor star flutter!

Although they were unable to counterattack the vast territory of Shenzhou for the time being, the United States of America, the only close neighbor capable of large-scale intervention in their development, was also mired in an irreconcilable civil war above Yinzhou.

Then the Taiping Fortress base with almost no worries, the direction of expansion is the red arrow on the projection map, St. George's British colony of Naga.

The Kingdom of St. George's British Kingdom has not had a good time in recent years, the native army has just finished a bitter 70-year war with the Gallic Empire, and the navy's Grand Fleet, which is competing with the Bansi Sultanate for trade routes in the Atlantic, will not be able to support the colony of Nagar on the other side of the stars for at least two or three years.

The colony of Naga, with a population of less than 3 million, relied on the might of the Kingdom of St. George's Britannia to open up a territory the size of the United States of America, but its power was concentrated on a fertile plain in the north of Yinzhou, not far from the rear border of the Taiping base area.

Such a suitable target happened to be the first shot to start the world name of the Taiping Society!

Hong Tiangui continued after seeing the high-level leaders of the Taiping Society, and after their eyes were on the projection map.

"With this expansion, I hope to quickly destroy several large cities in the colony of Nagata and move our factories into them."

His words did not take into account the resistance of the Naga colony.

Not only Hong Tiangui, but even none of the members of the Taiping Society present had any intention of refuting it.

At present, the Taiping military's weapons are all equipped with breech guns, mortars, platoon-level armaments, and even machine guns, and the gap between the combat effectiveness of the current Western breech gun armies has completely opened an era.

······

After the meeting, Hong Tiangui breathed a long sigh of relief.

He was the last one to walk out of the door of the conference room.

In fact, in addition to the expansion plan to the colonies of Naga, there is also a plan to join forces with the United States of the North to destroy the Southern Alliance.

It's just that in the intelligence of Su Changlu, the saintess of the Yin Di Ansu tribe, after those land railways have buried underground spiritual roots and used them to guide energy, even if they destroy the appearance of the railway, there is no guarantee that they will be able to destroy the activation of their land alchemy array.

In fact, if you think about it, those high-ranking dark species are ready to strike at the end of the war, and the railway, which is a supply line for the war, is the key target of destruction for the armies of the north and the south.

How could their evil plan, which had taken so many years, have such great shortcomings?

Moreover, what will the inferior philosopher's stone refined from this great array be used for by those dark species?

These huge risks that are not known for the time being made Hong Tiangui directly in the Taiping Aura network inform the Taiping Society that before the meeting, he gave up the plan to help the United States and destroy the Allied States.

On the one hand, it was the persimmon that picked up the soft pinch, and on the other hand, he learned from Su Changlu that his compatriots were torturing in the United States of America, and he wished that the civil war would last longer, so that this neighbor would be weaker and weaker!

Shaking his head, Hong Tiangui took off the black-framed glasses on the bridge of his nose, looked up at the sky that had completely entered the night, and walked towards his residence.

Tomorrow, he was going to go back to the Indian maiden to learn more about the details of the High Dark Seed's plan.

Now that there was already a Sioux saintess who knew the hiding place of those high-risk dark species, Hong Tiangui had already secretly made up his mind.

If it's possible.

Within two months of rescuing his compatriots at the railway construction site, he wanted to personally take action with Miss Miaoshan and directly raid the lair of those dark seeds to completely solve this hidden danger······
