More or less that, William had the daunting task of appeasing Elise while planning to promote his Gothic racism, to incite the racial antagonism of the immigrants, and to retreat his army inland to meet the impending Visigothic expeditionary force. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

He was physically and mentally exhausted every day. The only thing to be thankful for is that Xia Lumi is at least okay and doesn't cause him trouble.

This made William somewhat relieved, and at the same time sighed that he couldn't have both fish and bear's paws - a smart guy like Elise could indeed help him a lot, but his ability to cause trouble was also first-class. And like Xia Lumi, although she is a little stupid, she always has the advantage of being stupid.

In many cases, jealousy is a game for smart people...... Or if you don't have enough IQ and can't even understand what those guys are saying, then you won't be able to fight.

In this way, in November of 1749, William was miserable. Very tired. For the first time, he realized that family problems are often more difficult to solve than national affairs.

Thankfully, at the end of November, Victoria was finally gone. Something went wrong in the Northern Theater of Operations. After settling the coastal areas, the Briton Expeditionary Force began to penetrate deep inland, and its forces began to disperse, which gave the Continental Army some opportunities.

In a series of skirmishes, the Continental Army achieved some success. And because of the bad weather, the army of the Briton Expeditionary Force could not move. Small units are also vulnerable to ambushes and encirclements by the Continental Army, which is familiar with the terrain.

This caused the morale of the expeditionary force to be low.

So, in this case, Victoria has to go back to the town.

William was relieved - although Victoria's "reluctant" gaze before leaving, which "just happened" to be caught by Elise, took a lot of effort for him to settle down. Anyway, though, it's over. William could finally concentrate and set his sights on the Atlantic Ocean and wait for the Visigothic enemy.

In November, William's army abandoned Charleston. Retreat inland to South Carolina.

After continuous efforts, the Gothic immigrants of South Carolina gradually began to accept William's "neo-Gothic" plan, as well as the "Briton Quarantine Plan". William didn't know what was really tempting them.

Maybe it's a clever propaganda team.

Perhaps it was the elite of William's Nine Thousand Expeditionary Force.

Or the plantation shares that were allocated to them.

But none of this matters, the important thing is that William's neo-gothic project has progressed again. Georgia, south of South Carolina, has become a wobbly neutral state. Next, William believed that if he could "easily" defeat the 20,000 Visigothic army and give the inhabitants a real taste of his power, then these people would fall into his arms in the shortest possible time.

Two states, close to 300,000 inhabitants. The population of one-tenth of the entire colony of the Northern Continent. This should not be regarded as digging the foot of the wall, but should be regarded as digging the heart, liver and lungs. The top echelons of the Government of the Republic must have felt very painful.

That's it, at the end of November, Victoria left, and the Visigoths landed in Charleston.

Everything is as the previous intelligence has shown. Their numbers, their troop allocation. Their morale, and their popularity--

Originally, the Visigothic Expeditionary Force was expected to land in Virginia and then make peace with the Continental Army. In that way, their army would be more or less "taken care of" by the Continental Army, and with the large amount of supplies they carried with the ship, they would definitely become "very popular people".

But this time it's different. After the landing in Charleston, South Carolina, no Continental Army came to make peace with it. They were unable to get in touch with the Continental Army and use their local connections. And of course, the large amount of supplies they carried, and their commander, Count Rochambeau, never thought of distributing him to the locals for no reason.

As an official nobleman of the old brand, Count Rochambeau was very dismissive of the Continental Army from Tubaozi. He didn't even care about those soil buns army, and he naturally disdained the so-called guerrillas he organized by himself who were not even as good as the soil buns.

Some supporters of the Continental Army in South Carolina sent representatives hoping to meet the earl and get help.

But they were all driven away. The count did not even take out a copper plate or a grain of grain. At the same time, he was full of self-confidence, and he didn't think he needed any help. He believed that his army was more than enough to defeat any enemy, including Wilhelm von Hereford, who had been touted as some powerful imp by a bunch of fools who didn't know the truth.

That's it. After the landing, after a short rest, the Count led his army of 20,000 men to the plain where William was now stationed.

Two-thirds of South Carolina's terrain is plains, making it ideal for large corps. The only thing that displeased the Count was that the two cavalry regiments under his command, which he was most proud of, had lost a great deal of combat effectiveness because of the voyage.

Ten percent of those precious horses died while crossing the Atlantic, and most of the rest lost weight. If you don't cultivate for a period of time, you will definitely not be able to recover your combat effectiveness.

As a result, the Earl had to leave most of his cavalry in Charleston. With only two companies of light cavalry advanced.

"Their strength was more or less like this, consisting of ten infantry regiments forming the main infantry force, and then two regiments of lancers, these light lancers, who were one of the elite Visigothic troops, and were very combat-ready. Then, there were two artillery regiments. Armed with nearly two hundred guns of various types. And equipped with basic defensive weapons.

Most notably, the Count of Rochambeau brought with him a regiment of Janissaries, all armed with flintlock muskets, as well as light infantry artillery, and a company of guards cavalry. As part of the protection of the Visigothic royal family, it belonged to one of the six Patriarchal Orders. Battle effectiveness...... All I can say is that the fighting power is very strong. In my prediction, this Patriarchate was the only enemy army that had the opportunity to compete with the troops of the White Legion. ”

In the area of the temporarily opened barracks. William listened as little John read the information, and then looked at the officers around him:

"This is our enemy. It is claimed to be the strongest army nation in the world. Our goal is simple, to crush them, and then, to kill them all. ”
