Looking at Victor and James, whose faces were immature, but their eyes were sharp and resolute, General Zachary Taylor nodded with satisfaction.

"Awesome boy, tell me your names!"

Victor glanced at Zachary Taylor and replied without humility or arrogance.

"Victor Logan!"

Zachary Taylor nodded and looked at James next to him.

"What about you?"

James' eyes flickered when he heard this, but he finally said his original name.

"James Howlett!"

……

Just five days after Victor and James successfully joined Zachary Taylor's forces, Zachary Taylor left his original stronghold with a mixture of 3,000 new and old soldiers, and continued to advance a large distance towards the disputed region of Mexico, near Mexico, and began to build the Fort Texas.

On April 25, a Mexican army of 1,600 men outflanked a 63-man reconnaissance team under Zachary Taylor near Fort Texas, and the besieging American troops were killed, wounded, or captured, leaving no one alive.

It's just that Victor and James are not on this team, so they can't participate in this conflict.

This hostility around Victor and James can be said to be the beginning of the Mexican-American War.

Since then, the situation in the disputed area between the United States and Mexico has begun to become tense, and the United States and Mexico have begun to carry out large-scale troop movements, dispatch troops, and build a large number of fortifications in the disputed area, and there has been more and more friction between the two armies.

Victor and James felt the increasingly thick atmosphere of war around them, and their hearts couldn't help but get excited, and they could finally fight to their heart's content!

I just don't know how long I'll have to wait.

Soon, however, they had a chance to fight in earnest.

A few days later, the Mexican army sent troops to besiege a U.S. stronghold.

When Zachary Taylor heard the news, he immediately led his troops to the rescue.

On May 8, the two sides carried out artillery bombardment, the infantry did not move, Victor and James did not get the opportunity to fight, had to continue to endure, all the soldiers around them were frightened to find a place to hide, for fear that the shells would fall on their heads, Victor and James just found a place to sit there, let the shells fall beside them, but there was no fear on their faces, but looked at the battlefield full of excitement, eager to directly face the artillery fire, rushed up to the enemy front.

However, Chen Mo had already confessed that he must obey the orders of his commander during his time in the army, otherwise being arrested for violating military orders would seriously affect the later battle between the two.

As for the cannon fire in the sky, the two did not put it in their eyes, although the power of this cannonball is indeed much stronger than the musket, but don't forget what era this is, in 1846, in the middle of the eighteenth century, the muskets used by the troops in Europe and the United States are generally front-loading smoothbore flintlock guns, and the bullets are only more convenient than the arquebus era.

Although it is more convenient than before, there is no essential difference, even if it is the most advanced now, and the firing pistol, which has not yet been popularized in the troops, has only improved the firing method and fires faster, but there is still no rifling in the barrel, there is always a gap between the bullet and the barrel wall, the power of the gunpowder explosion is wasted a lot, and the power of the bullet is very limited.

And the same is true of artillery, both the United States and Mexico use smoothbore guns, there is no rifling in the breech, and the shells are just about five kilograms of iron balls, and the power of explosives explosion is also wasted a lot, and the power of the shells is far from being comparable to the artillery of later generations. At most, it will crack the internal organs.

But at this time, Victor and James' self-healing ability is much stronger than before, and no matter how serious the injury is, it will only take a few minutes to heal, so even if they are hit by these shells, there will be no danger to their lives, and even their combat effectiveness will not be greatly reduced.

In the movie, James was once hit in the chest by a cannonball in the Civil War, but he was just hit by the force of the cannonball and flew out, and there was nothing in itself.

In the end, the shelling, which lasted all day, ended in the evening with the victory of Taylor's troops, and the Mexican army suffered heavy losses.

The next day, Victor and James finally had a chance to fight.

More than two thousand infantry, under the command of Zachary Taylor, charged towards the positions of the Mexican army, and Victor and James finally had the long-awaited battle.

"Rush!"

"Kill them!"

"Kill, !!"

The two men with rifles, together with the other soldiers, roared and rushed towards the enemy, the Mexican army hurriedly opened fire, the bullets flew sideways in the air, and one of the running soldiers was hit by the bullets and fell to the ground, and there was no sound, but more soldiers continued to rush forward.

Victor and James were the first to rush into the enemy's position, and the Mexican soldiers gave up their shots and met them with rifles with bayonets.

Victor raised his rifle and smashed the butt of the rifle into the neck of an oncoming Mexican soldier, and the huge force directly smashed the opponent's neck, the bright red flesh was torn and rolled up, and the entire neck instantly became blurred, and even the cervical vertebrae were directly smashed under this heavy blow, and the whole head was twisted to the side, with the neck spraying splashed blood, the soldier fell directly to the ground and lost his life.

Victor didn't even glance at the fallen corpse, and without stopping at all, he roared and rushed to the next target.

Victor and James, who rushed into the local position, were like tigers into the flock, and every time they attacked, they killed an enemy directly, but after all, this is a battlefield, there are enemies everywhere, and no matter how strong the two are, they can't be as uninjured as they did when they faced the armed acquisition personnel of the fur company.

The U.S. and Mexico engaged in fierce white-knuckle battles on the battlefield, and as the battle progressed, one soldier after another was killed, and the ground was gradually covered with corpses of various appearances, and Victor and James suffered more and more wounds. ()
