Lorchen-Loach, relying on his many years of contacts and the wealth accumulated by various robberies and stealths, borrowed a large amount of dollars from the British Northwest Company, the Russian American Company, and the French Louisiana Company before the winter of 1846 approached!

With his own Lorqin Bank as collateral, he used a total of 50 times leverage to buy almost all the dollar-denominated assets he could acquire.

The movement he made was so great that the debate on the nationalization of the banks, which was supposed to be discussed in the Commonwealth Congress of the United States before Christmas 1846, was replaced by a discussion of 'how the banking industry in the United States could resist barbarians knocking on the door'.

Outside the Lorchen Commercial Bank, there are resident advisory groups of the British Northwest Company, the Russian American Company, and the French Louisiana Company, and they are ready to take over their share of the property if anything goes wrong with the Lorchen Commercial Bank.

Fort Laramie is a casino, but since it opened, no one has gambled so much with Lorqin as he did.

Far away in Europe, the Times, not knowing where to get the news, took a sensational headline on its front page the day after Christmas: "Lorchen-Loach and His Orc Empire."

Yes, Lorchen-Loach's nickname is 'Half-Orc', as he is said to be half-Indian.

……

The ensuing war was a bit lackluster.

For Turtledove, his war was over when he saw the vast camp of Alexander's Brigade on the mountains of the Lamar Valley in flames.

The rest is just the scenery.

The old man who traveled thousands of miles to deliver pancakes to his son along the way was a sight;

The torches all over the mountains are a sight;

The American soldiers who were shot under the neat barrels of their guns were a sight to behold;

And the silent Rocky Mountain in the distance, and the red sun rising from the sea of clouds of Rocky Mountain before dawn arrives, all are landscapes!

Mountains and rivers have witnessed how many years of people have come and gone.

If the mountain is really spiritual, after witnessing the suffering of the Indians, it should also be able to make a choice—

On the high ground of North 21 Outpost, a dark stone monument was erected to commemorate the January 18, 1846, when Ikaruga led the Indian Confederate army to annihilate 20,000 men under the command of John Charlie Fremont.

He also ordered a stone tablet to be erected, on which Lewen was the spirit of the turtledove to denounce Mount Rocky:

"Eight thousand years of flesh and blood affection, can this creature be disrespectful and insensitive? Fifty million people were put to ruin, and they sat back and watched! ”

"Nine million miles of mountains and rivers are shaking, and the happy land there is nothing but the people's fat and people's ointment! Today, I am full of enthusiasm and trekking on the mountain to ask for the guilt, and then I will not forgive! ”

Since then, rumors have come out that someone saw blood flowing for 3,000 miles in the sea of clouds in Rocky Mountain, which was a sign of the old spirit's ambush.

On the 20th, the turtledove returned to White Rock Castle under the escort of the army.

When we set off, the sun was blazing blue, the Rocky Mountains were clear, and you could even see the blue waves of the Pacific Ocean.

All the people shouted in unison, sending the turtledove back to the city, and the mountains rumbled.

Rumors came out that it was a sign of the birth of a new spirit in Rocky Mountain!

Since the turtledove left, the North 21 outpost has gradually deserted, leaving only a few people to guard the small temple, collect the bones all over the mountains, summon spirits, endow spirits, watch the white clouds and dogs, and occasionally tell the story of the year for those who come to pay their respects.

The Blood Wolf will lead the Shulotel Legion westward, and he will complete the last remaining part of the 'Butterfly Project', clearing Oregon and Upper California.

The leader of the British army was received for fifteen dollars, and as a gift to the allies, they donated 1,000 guns and all the ammunition to White Rock, and White Rock sent 10 choir children to sing to them and lay flowers. After the donation ceremony, Piso sent a handwritten letter wishing them a happy and wonderful life in Vancouver.

The watermill took the Tonatius Regiment to rest in Livingston, which temporarily became a wounded battalion. In the future planning of White Rock City, a second city will be built in Livingston, and the Sitting Ox and the Little Crow will then be stationed here to begin the preliminary work of building the city.

The siege of Randburg by Red Cloud to the south continues, but it is expected that the battle at Randburg will soon be over as Fremont's head is sent over.

War is like this, before breaking through a certain point, the situation is anxious and repeatedly pulled, and at one point it will make both sides of the war feel that they cannot survive and die, as if they are almost going to lose, and it seems that they can win as long as they exert themselves.

But as long as this point is breached, the situation will be clear in an instant, the winner will be like a bamboo, and the loser will be crushed for a thousand miles.

In addition, there is a little bit of work that needs to be done with the turtledove.

……

On behalf of the White Rock City Daily, Andre Jr. conducted an exclusive interview with the turtledove.

The interview was conducted on horseback, and little Andre had to rush back to White Rock City after the interview was completed to prepare for the newspaper that would be printed overnight.

Andre Jr.: "Hello, Mr. Ikaruga, the White Rock City Daily is a neutral and objective newspaper and the largest circulation newspaper in the western region of North America, and we thank you for taking the time to do this with us. ”

Let's try it soon, everyone. 】

Ikaruga: "You're welcome, just ask!" ”

Andre Jr.: "Does our annihilation of Fremont's Northern Oregon Corps near Livingston mean that we have achieved an initial victory in the Revolutionary War?" ”

Ikaruga: "The War of Independence was a 10,000-mile journey, and our victory only proves that we are now on the right path. For 300 years, countless Indians have paid for finding a path to independence. From Manhattan in the east to Seattle in the west, from Cuauchtmock to Tecumse, I don't know how many people died and how many detours were taken – finally after this series of victories in Livingston, we are sure that we are on the right path! ”

Andrey Jr.: "Both the soldiers and the common people believe that without your wise leadership, we would not have been able to achieve such a victory. What do you have to say—"

Ikadove: "This question can't be written in a newspaper like that, it needs to be a little more roundabout, you can wait and interview other people, and let other people express this meaning!" ”

Andrey Jr.: "Okay, I understand, I'm sorry. Then I don't have any problems, can you take a look at this interview transcript? ”

The turtledove looked at the interview script on horseback, thought about it for two hundred meters, and handed it back to little Andrei: "Yes, that's it!" As the new priest of wisdom, do not forget to learn. ”

Andrei Jr.: "Okay, turtledove! ”

Turtledove: "You should learn not only from Sequoia, but also from the Fifteen Dollar and the Beaver, and more importantly from the Washington Post or the Sun." ”

Little Andrew: "Okay, turtledove. ”

There is nothing wrong with the interview draft, in fact, this interview draft has gone through at least 3 rounds of review when it is handed to Turtledove, if there are any problems with this, it can only mean that little Andre is not suitable for this position.

It's just that the interview script says how the turtledove fought bravely, how he commanded, and how he burst the powder keg in the Lamar Valley with one shot...... Turtledove thought it was a bit exaggerated.

But it's not a big problem, the people like to watch this, that's it.

As for whether this battle was hard or not, in all fairness, from the point of view of the war itself, the turtledove just came out of the White Rock City, walked along the Lamar Valley, and walked to the North 21st post to look at the scenery.

It's incredibly simple, and it's so different from the bloody stories.

But if you think about it, how did Napoleon restore back then? It's just a walk from Corsica to Paris.

The world hasn't changed, it's just that the protagonist has changed.
