Carrot still had to speculate on his own, and the British, from the moment they received the company's operational intelligence, knew what they were going to do. In the previous naval battle between Britain and France, the British fleet won the battle in one fell swoop with the help of Igik. It's just that the commander of the fleet, Kamal, for the sake of greed, erased the fact that Igik's fleet had appeared. It's just that this kind of thing can't be hidden for long. Especially at that time, there were 2,000 private troops sent by Lin Man in the fleet.

Kamal had used a lot of money to buy them off, but there were still people in it who were loyal to Limman. When the credit was decided, the colonies were generally recognized, the morale rose suddenly, and they didn't dare to change it if they wanted to, this information was placed on the table of Lin Man and the three of them in detail. For this news, Lin Man and the three were very frightened. The army strength of the Yanhuang Trading Company was already so strong that they had no intention of resisting. In the colony, many nobles were prepared to surrender when the company's troops came in.

The reason why the colony has not collapsed yet, and it is still insisting on fighting with the company for development, is because it has not found any naval power in the Yanhuang Trading Company. In this era of great navigation, the white people have long had a deep understanding of the power of warships, and without the power of a strong fleet, they are not a strong country in the true sense of their hearts. The company doesn't have a fleet, and they have a strong enough fleet that even if the company's army cripples their army, these people can get away safely with a strong fleet.

If you wish, you can also use the fleet to attack the territory captured by the company. But now, they found that the company seemed to have a decent naval force. Let's not talk about the ship type, the key is that the artillery technology of Yanhuang Trading Company is very advanced. Not to mention the heavy punches sold to them, they have figured out the rifling, but they have not completely analyzed the material composition of the cannon body until now. They could also use their own steel to make front-loading rifled guns, but because the material was not strong enough, the rifling wore out very quickly, and it was temporarily unusable.

I heard that the Yanhuang Trading Company still has heavy fist two-type, three-type, mortar, and the kind of heavy artillery technology that destroys half of the world. These cannons, that is, the assault type 60mm mortars, are more practical than the heavy fist type, and in trench warfare, the threat caused is far greater than that of the heavy fist type. The three of Lin Man estimated that even if it was an armed merchant ship, it would be able to attack their cruiser if it was replaced with these guns, which had only been known for its name and had not been seen in real objects. In that case, it would be terrible.

In case the company's fleet develops, when the time comes, when the company's army and navy go hand in hand, these people in the North American colonies will have no choice but to surrender. This situation is something that Lin Man and the three of them absolutely do not want to see. Therefore, when Corinth reported that the company had already taken action against the French, and asked them to also take action to completely divide the French power, the three refused, and ordered all the private troops not to act rashly.

This order, when Carrot mobilized his troops and surrounded the fishing port occupied by the company, became a dead order that must not be violated. Now, the British and the Yanhuang Trading Company are allies, and the most important thing is that the British's own wounds have not been completely licked clean, and they dare not rashly attack the Yanhuang Trading Company. However, it was not a problem to let the French take action. As long as the French can snatch back the fishing port, then the company's development of the navy will become an empty word.

In order to strengthen the power of the French, they preferred to give up the best time to snatch the spoils of war. Of course, in this way, Lin Man and the three still feel that it is not enough insurance. Without sufficiently advanced weapons, the French might not be able to defeat the Yanhuang Trading Company. The three Lynman secretly sent their henchmen to infiltrate the territory of the current French, found Carrot, and prepared to provide some covert support. They really didn't think that the French thought so too. Carrot's henchmen, along with the henchmen of the three of them, knew the supreme leaders of both sides at the same time.

The French have also investigated, and the British are not really stupid, nor are they planning to completely surrender to Chaulin. If it weren't for the French pushing too hard, and the invading forces being too barbaric and domineering, the British would never have fallen to the side of the Yanhuang Trading Company. Not to mention the blood feud formed in the previous battles, even for the interests of the homeland and the interests of the whites, the British would not allow the entire North American continent to be dominated by the Yanhuang Trading Company under the banner of the United Indian Company.

Carrot knew that it would be impossible for the forces he had drawn to break through the town guarded by the company's troops. And if you want to draw more troops, then you must clear up your worries. As long as the British could be sure that they would not take advantage of the gap created by the emptiness of his troops, he dared to draw all his troops up. Knowing the thoughts of the three counts of Linman from the mouths of the three earls' henchmen, Carrot was also excited. Especially when the British said they could provide weapons, Carrot was really happy.

The two sides quickly reached a tacit understanding, and the British worked hard to rein in their forces so that the French would not have to worry about the future. At the same time, a large number of backward weapons that they had accumulated after reloading began to be packed and transported to a secret location on the border between the two sides' territories. The weapons provided by the British were not advanced weapons. Hall M1819 rifles and heavy-fist guns, that's even more unthinkable. They themselves can't make qualified ones, and if they want to arm elite troops, they have to spend the same money to buy them from the company, how can they sell them to the French.

The weapons sold to the French were all brown bass muskets and small, backward field guns such as four-pound, six-pound, and three-pound. And, of course, there was a group of muskets and artillery that they had captured from the French invading forces. There are even some of their own replicas of Hall M1819-style muskets. Because they were afraid of being caught by the company and looking for trouble, their imitation Hall M1819 musket was changed. Outwardly, it bears little resemblance to the Hall M1819.

And because of this immature modification, the life of these muskets was slightly shorter than that of the brown bass muskets. Once used continuously for too long, there is a great chance of an explosion accident. The British did not dare to use it, but it was good to use it for the French. Relying on these weapons, they gave the British a lot of money, and if this money was invested, the discontent in the British North American colonies was weakened a lot. The British and French thought they were doing a very secretive job, but it didn't take long for the report to be on Shawlin's desk.

"Teacher, these British people are really grass, they don't know what to do, and they dare to engage in arms trade with the French, do you want me to take this guard group to kill them? ”

"There is no need, the British do not dare to turn their faces with us now. Seeing that the speed of development could not compete with us, the British, who were unwilling to be annexed by us, would naturally take such actions, and I had already expected them. Still, they were naïve. Those front-loading guns and front-loading artillery, no matter how many there are now, the company's army is no longer afraid. ”

"The teacher is right, the three guns you brought back called Type 81 are really easy to use, and now the soldiers would rather sleep and hold them, for fear that they will not be lost. ”

"Hehe, don't talk about these nonsense, Dean, you go down and continue to urge, so that the pro-guard regiment will be proficient in the use and maintenance of the Type 81 gun clan by the end of May this year. There are still Type 85 armored vehicles and Type 59 tanks that you need to learn and master, and by the end of this year, you must give me all these equipment. ”

"yes, I'm going to let them practice. ”

"Wait a minute, go to the telegraph room and give me an order. Ordering Apache and the others, there is no need to hide the Type 21 Mountain Cannon and the Flash Snake Type 1 rapid-fire cannon, they can all be activated, and everything is based on paying the minimum casualties to achieve the greatest results. After that, he ordered the 2nd Division of the garrison division, all of which were dispatched to all the cities at the forefront of the British and company territory. Be ready for battle and prevent the British from getting hot-headed. In addition, the 1st and 2nd Divisions of the Militia and the 1st Brigade of the 3rd Division were ordered to enter the third level of combat readiness, and if the British dared to make a move, they would immediately go forward and cripple them together with the 2nd Garrison Division. ”

"Yes!"

Dean recorded Shawlin's orders, went to the telegraph room of the military base, and delivered the three orders to each of the three commanders. The Apache received it at the latest, and they had to rely on the newly built telegraph stations in the French cities that were under the company's command along the way to receive the radio messages here. Don't dare, he's not slow to react. At the Apache command, all the artillery that had previously been covered by canvas revealed its true colors.

There were a total of fifty 75mm guns, half of which were mountain guns and half rapid-fire guns, and this was the reinforcement that Shotin gave them. The heavy howitzer company has not yet mastered the manufacturing technology, and the repair can only repair minor problems. Therefore, there are only 100 doors here to support the scene. The two types of 75mm caliber guns are manufactured by the company itself, and they are flexible enough, so the production has not stopped. One winter, I managed to gather fifty doors, and this time I brought them all out.

Each cannon had thirty ordinary shells, plus the remaining guns of the heavy howitzers, enough to thwart the French offensive. Igcik had not yet received the order and was still hiding in a secret place. Although there are already ironclad ships, it doesn't mean that those wooden sailing ships under Ijik can be directly discontinued. Besides, the ships were all driven by sailors, and if the ships were to be wrecked by the French, they would have to lose a lot of sailors. They are the seedlings of the navy who can be on the ship after a short period of training.
