305.Chapter 305: A New World, a New Atmosphere
Similar to the situation of the Mustang tribe, there are several other Indian tribes. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoThe first month of 1750 was spent in chaos and carnage. Those tribes with a similar number of supporters and opponents all ended their arguments with a civil war.
And because before that, the chiefs brought to Charleston were all the best and most capable warriors of their tribe. These warriors, too, were rightfully affected and sided with their chiefs. At the same time, the overwhelming majority of opponents did not expect that because of such a thing, the chiefs would start killing.
Therefore, the chieftaincy, who had absolute superiority in force and at the same time had suddenness, easily won the victory.
However, not all Cherokee tribes end their quarrels in this way.
In fact, most of the tribes eventually agreed with the Great Chiefs. Because their prestige is high enough and their attitude is resolute enough...... However, there were also a handful of chiefs who were not strong enough and not resolute enough to back down. They decided to abandon their collaboration with William. Of course, all the chiefs who had given up their cooperation also sent emissaries to Charleston to explain the situation to William.
In any case, they did not want to offend William and his White Army.
In this way, although they did not get a perfect score in the end, the vast majority of the Cherokee tribe finally sent the first batch of soldiers who needed to be trained to Charleston in February, as agreed.
A total of two thousand strong Cherokee warriors, half of whom were cavalry. The other half were musketeers.
The musketeers will be mixed with two thousand local Gothic descendants. Then two new infantry regiments were formed. And the cavalry will form a new cavalry regiment.
During this time, supplies, food, weapons and equipment were transported from the Russian mainland...... There were also large quantities of unsalable iron products, all of which were transported to the New World.
William told his father, King Otto, all about his plans and what he needed. Although the latter didn't quite understand what William wanted to do, he still supported William's plan out of absolute trust in William.
With a new kingdom as his backing, William's plan was successfully implemented.
The Cherokee warriors were very uncomfortable at first, resentful, and somewhat resistant - especially the tribes that had a civil war because of this, and the warriors felt that it was because of William, because of the Goths, that they had such a catastrophe.
In fact, if it weren't for the repeated demands of the various chiefs to them, listen to the Gothic instructors. Moreover, among the warriors of these tribes, mixed with the guards who came with the big chiefs last time, then these guys must not make trouble, or even kill people to death.
But William didn't care. William believed that the army, barracks life, and the days of recruit training could quickly change these misconceptions. And they will soon like this more civilized and comfortable life - just like the Cherokee chiefs who felt that they used to live in **** after being exposed to life in Charleston.
And even further.
The war in the New World will not end in a short time. Half a year, a year, or even two years. These guys don't just learn how the Goths fight. They'll also learn the Gothic language, and they'll learn how the Goths lived, and even the Gothic way of thinking. They were mixed with the Goths. They're going to soak it all up like crazy......
Eventually, William will transform them into new, civilized Cherokees.
William believed that the Cherokees, who had grown their horizons and were accustomed to such a way of life, would never adapt to their tribal life again. They, too, will feel like the chiefs in their old lives like a piece of **** - in fact, worse than that.
The chiefs are like monkeys who have tried the life of Youwo for a few days and then are released back into the pack. And these Cherokees, who will follow William and fight in the New World for several years, will be as if they have been genetically modified, transformed into humans, and then thrown back into the monkey group.
They will never accept and return to the old life.
"That's pretty much it. After a tour of the boot camp, William was satisfied with the current situation. He succeeded in acquiring the Cherokees, who would be like seeds, absorbing the nourishment of the Gothic civilization from the Old World.
And these civilizations will be like viruses and plagues, and these soldiers, warriors, will infect the tribes of Cherokee......
At that point, William could move on to the next step.
"Perhaps, it's really possible for you to domesticate these Cherokees and become part of the neo-Goths? Seriously, I'm not sure right now. β
After witnessing all of this, Elise's attitude began to change somewhat. She didn't feel like William was doing useless work, as she had done at the beginning. Of course, she didn't think that William would definitely succeed.
"Anyway, let's seeβElise, what is going on with all the people sent to the tribes, are you ready?" asked William.
"In fact, some people have already sent out. Elise replied, "The chiefs want our merchants to stay in the house. We also welcome the fact that we are able to hire some Cherokees for production activities. They also want to be able to buy some other luxury goods from us through commercial channels. The most requested are sweets, as well as sweets. β
"Give it to them. William said, "Think of it as a bribe." If they want candy, give it to them. William said generously: "It won't cost a lot of money anyway, because the Caribbean islands in the south are the world's largest sugar cane production base." β
"Yes, Asturias, those bastards are rich enough. Hearing William say this, Elise couldn't help but sigh: "Obviously, in terms of national strength, it is only second-rate, but it occupies such a large colony. It's so unfair. β
"Perhaps, one day we can take all those colonies. William said, "For now, though, let's focus on the important matters at hand." β
"This war...... Are you ready?" asked Elise, "though I'm not very good at military affairs." But I also knew that attacking Virginia was not going to be easy. β
"There are other troubles. William said, "Our king, Louis, seems to be concerned about the total annihilation of his expeditionary force. According to the Cheka return of the Old Continent. The Visigoths refused to accept defeat. Soon, the second Visigothic expeditionary force will arrive.
This time it's not just the Visigoths. Asturias was also drawn into the alliance by King Louis. In this way, the southern colony of Asturias, will also intervene in the war. β
"Have they learned the lesson from the last time?" asked Elise, "Isn't it still the same troops as the last time?"
"Although there is no accurate intelligence. But I think so. William replied, "It is impossible for them to renovate their military system in such a short period of time." β
"Then there's nothing to be afraid of. Elise said, "Perhaps, we can really take advantage of this opportunity to seize some of the colonies of Asturias...... Well, what about Florida? If we take the Florida peninsula under control, we can take the entire southeast coast of the New World under our control. β
"It's not that simple. In fact, I think we're really in trouble. Hearing Elise say such an optimistic thing, William couldn't help but smile bitterly: "The battle on land is naturally no problem. Even if another 20,000 or even 40,000 troops come, I can take care of them.
But the battle at sea was different. Our expeditionary fleet is no match for the Visigoths. If the Asturians also sent an expeditionary fleet, it would be a lot of fun. β
"No matter how powerful the fleet is, there is no way to climb to land. Elise said.
"But they can block the ports, they can shell our coastal cities. It can make all the transport supplies from the Old World unable to make it. β
β...... Hmm......" Hearing William say this, Elise was also a little hesitant. So, immediately after that, she thought of something: "Don't you have that guy? Briton's navy was the strongest in the Old World. Even the navies of Asturias and Visigoth. I'm afraid they can't compare to them.
Aren't we allies? With their navy, what are you afraid of?"
"That's what I'm afraid of. William said, "If the Briton Navy is really willing to help." Then everything is easy to say. What I'm afraid of is that the Bretons won't help. After all, there are so many benefits we get in the New World. That Queen Briton probably already had an opinion about me. β
"And what are you going to do?" Hearing William say this, Elise snorted lightly and asked a little unpleasantly.
"IβI'll figure it out. William said: "Find a way to communicate with her, but also find a way to solve it yourself from other conveniences." β
"Do we have to fight a naval battle with Visigoths or Asturias, or are you going to use your secret weapon?"
Not really. William interrupted Elise before she could say "that thing."
Although he didn't think that the wall had ears, William still felt that it was better to be cautious.
"There's more to the problem than force, Elise. William said.
