Chapter 223 The Dissatisfied French

The soldiers of the field brigade, singing loud military songs, stepped into the town with neat steps. A neat army dressed in the uniform of Germany of World War II with a rifle with a bayonet on its back. Plus light and heavy machine guns, mortars, as well as heavy artillery equipped with each. Let the fifteen thousand former British colonists who were sold by the three earls of Linman lose their voices. With such a powerful army, they don't dare to stab them easily. On the same day, the company's officials settled in and began to administer.

First of all, the first policy is the restitution of property. In these towns, all the real estate and remaining property were summed up by the company's officials. As long as these people can produce enough evidence, they can directly get back what belongs to them. If you don't have any physical evidence, you can apply to join the company's review program, submit the information about the property you want to get back, and then the company will conduct an inspection and review. The main thing is to investigate and collect evidence, and Xiao Lin also specially arranged two polygraphs.

If you go through the three processes, then you can get the things back, but you need to pay one-twentieth of the property to be paid back as the labor fee of the company officials. This price can be borne by everyone, and it is better than the three Earls of Linman who did not give them any hope and directly confiscated their original things. So, one by one, it's really very enthusiastic. However, it is not that no one wants to fish in troubled waters, and they are all caught by the company. Directly disqualify them, even if it is really their stuff, it will be confiscated.

As for the people, they were also arrested and served at least two years of hard labor, and the file that had just been established also had a bad record. Xiao Lin felt that the integrity file and record system in the 21st century was very good, and it began to be implemented in the company, and after recruiting more grassroots officials, the company itself had already been completed, and the new territory naturally had to continue. If these people don't take it seriously, they will have bitter fruits to eat in the future.

Now, the only ones who were unhappy about the purchase of three towns by the Yanhuang Trading Company from the British. But everyone has planned to sow discord between the nobles of the British and North American colonies, and then counterattack back, and these territories will be theirs in the future. But the three earls of Linman are so clever that they actually made such a play and dumped the results of the three of them to the company.

The previous coalition war in which Shawlin sent troops to exterminate thirty small and medium-sized tribes in a row really made the French understand the strong strength of the company more clearly. At this time, they did not dare to provoke the company at the same time. It really allowed the company to get these three towns, and when they counterattacked, they had to avoid these three places. The French colonial top brass could only smash their teeth and swallow in their stomachs, and they had to take into account the overall situation, not just think about their personal feelings.

However, the people below don't think so. After several successive victories, the British were crippled, and the government of the colonies basically collapsed completely, and the aristocracy ruled in union. The army was also largely crippled, and if it weren't for the aristocracy who used the homeless people to form a private army to resist, plus the weapons sold by the company, the French would not have been able to go straight in. Therefore, the pride of the French army is also rising. At this time, the company hiccups the French a few times, can they have no problem with the company?

For the first time, it was supposed to seize all the British North American colonies, and the private army had resisted them for a while, and there was no strength left, and the fruits of victory were about to come. However, the company suddenly appeared and sold a batch of advanced muskets and artillery to the British private army. Then, basically, the situation of the war was completely changed. From platoon shooting, it turned into trench warfare. The French are really a little worse in this regard, they have not really fought with the company.

Even, the French did not observe the wars in which the company was involved in the early stage. At that time, the company was not strong enough and the number of automatic firepower was not enough to engage in field battles with the enemy. Therefore, they can only desperately build trench fortifications, and then use the fortifications to defeat the enemy. At that time, the French did not care, and did not even have the intention of sending an observer to spy. Later, when the company's strength developed, and there was no longer a need to hide in the trenches to fight, the observers sent by the French did not learn anything.

This is different from the British, and all the trenches of the company are basically fought with the British. The British had tasted the power of trenches, and naturally knew very well about the construction of trench fortifications. Later, after making friends with the company, he also took out a little dry goods from the company, which naturally caused the French to collapse. Seeing that the sergeants were also tired, the French side transferred the army back for repairs. Now, the company has planted three more nails for them, and now, the lower army is really a bit of a nest.

In their opinion, the company is advanced enough except for military technology, and there is nothing powerful about it at all. How could it be compared to the French army with a mixed mix of personnel, and also to let the noble whites work together with the lowly Indians. The French are also very proud of their tactics, and the trenches are very powerful, and they must be equipped with advanced weapons. Without rear-loading guns, it is impossible to fight trench warfare with only front-loading guns.

This behavior of the company provoked the anger of the French soldiers who were close to the three towns to build a defensive line. As soon as the news came, the army here mutinied in disguise, and the lower and lower armies gathered to attack and defeat the three towns immediately. He even wanted to wipe out all the three field brigades of the company, but he was stopped by the officers who came in time.

But their anger grew. A large number of low-level officers began to connect in tandem, as if they were preparing to do something. Although the Governor and several generals strictly forbade them not to contradict the company's troops, many of the middle and lower rank officers were reluctant to obey this order. Therefore, for this kind of subterranean series, they all turn a blind eye. However, they didn't expect that if they continued to let it go like this, something would really happen in the end.

Time passed slowly, and a week later. The company's three field brigades are also on track, patrolling the perimeter of town on a daily basis. Under their protection, the 15,000 people who were sold to the new company also completed the property identification and recovery work, and began to work on restoration construction. At this time, it is especially important not to be invaded by some rogue bandits and the like, and the situation that has finally settled down, if someone comes to attack, they have to bother to appease it.

The company doesn't have a lot of money, so you can't keep paying without getting anything. This expansion led to the discovery of French patrols. The French were also patrolling, mainly because they were afraid that the company would use the three towns as a stronghold, and then suddenly send troops to fight and make their current territory gone. However, these patrols are naturally also composed of low-level sergeants. There could be no officers who could still exercise restraint.

The low-level soldiers have always been the most enthusiastic and the most unbearable anger. At the beginning, because of the constraints of discipline, the company's army naturally did not take the initiative to provoke trouble, and focused on doing their own patrol tasks. However, the French army was not so disciplined. Except for some basic regulations to protect the authority of the boss, the other regulations are not very comprehensive. Especially in the North American colonies, where the Emperor is far away, the regulations in this regard are much worse.

I was angry in my heart, and I saw the soldiers of one company after another, wearing military uniforms that looked better than theirs, holding weapons more advanced than theirs, and eating field rations ten times more fragrant than theirs. Now, the anger is even greater. The anger was built up until there was a patrol in which there was a most reckless French man, and he could not bear it anymore. While resting for lunch in the middle of a patrol of the 1st Field Brigade, this reckless man actually secretly took a gun and aimed it at a patrol soldier.

"Bang!"

A gunshot rang out, and one of the patrol's fighters fell in response. The rest of the fighters immediately showed excellent combat qualities, and the fighters immediately threw down their food, and they turned over to the hiding place they had observed for a long time. Then they took out their respective weapons and looked for the enemy's location according to the sound of gunfire. The medics came to the wounded soldier who had fallen and helped him check his injuries. Fortunately, every time the fighters who come out to patrol are fully equipped.

Bulletproof helmets and body armor were worn, not the latest, but sufficient to protect against bullets fired from front-loading muskets. The French reckless man shot very accurately, and a bullet hit the warrior's chest, which was exactly the position of the heart. Fortunately, the body armor blocked the bullets and did not penetrate the body armor. The kinetic energy of the bullets fired by the front-loading musket was not as good as that of the rear-loading musket, and the kinetic energy did not break the ribs of the soldiers.

The warrior was not actually injured, but fell because he was too abrupt and unprepared, so that he did not react after being hit by the bullet. In addition, he was hit and was a little chest tightness and shortness of breath, so he fell to the ground. By this time, he had relieved himself. Now that he has been attacked, Shawlin is not the kind of person who will give orders to his troops not to resist. Therefore, the soldiers of the patrol, finding the reckless man who had not had time to escape, hit him directly in the thigh and stunned him with the butt of a rifle.

Similarly, the French patrol with the reckless man was also attacked by the patrol, and was also beaten up and brought back to the station. Apache was able to lead a battalion, not only by nepotism with Xiao Lin, as the officer who had been in contact with Xiao Lin for the longest time, he was most deeply influenced by Xiao Lin. Similarly, they are all people who are good at preparing for the overall situation. Since it happened, he couldn't condemn anyone, after all, it was the French who did it first, and he immediately ordered the troops to be on combat alert, and at the same time reported to Sholin.
