The Sam soldiers who were on guard suddenly felt that the sky was bright.
Everyone couldn’t help but look at the rising white ball of light.
However, they did not notice that many Dasong soldiers had taken advantage of the darkness to reach near their trenches.
On the sea, Qin Shan sat on the deck, looking at the flares with a smile on his lips.
After this day’s battle, they basically figured out the strength of Sam’s army.
To his disappointment, the Sam army seemed not as durable as the British army.
Of course, this may also be related to the fact that they have changed their weapons.
In short, the Sam army was in a state of complete suppression in front of the Dasong army.
Just like an army with flintlocks facing an army with rifles.
“kill!”
At this time, deafening shouts of death rang out on the battlefield.
The sounds of mortars, grenades, and machine guns overlapped, and occasionally pistols.
When Dasong’s army attacked, Bolton was pacing back and forth in the camp, smoking.
The gap with Dasong’s army made him extremely anxious.
Now, they are basically certain that relying solely on the power of the Sam Kingdom cannot resist the Dasong army.
Now, he can only hope that the Western countries headed by Britain can provide support to Sam Country.
To this end, he decided to convey his ideas to President Sullivan.
Hearing the sound of gunfire, he immediately rushed out of the camp.
His eyes were immediately attracted by the bright light in the sky, and then he looked at the soldiers from Dasong who kept coming.
Under the impact of these soldiers, the Sam soldiers in the front trenches collapsed one after another.
They simply could not withstand the fierce firepower of Dasong’s army.
Especially the continuous firing of firearms.
After three days of shelling and today’s battle, the number of more than 400,000 troops in Long Beach was reduced by nearly one-third.
Today, he only has 300,000 troops left.
In a war, one-tenth of the battle damage can often lead to the collapse of the defense line.
They were able to fight with one-third of their losses because of the defense of Sam’s country.
However, the huge disparity in strength still caused low morale in the army.
It has to be said that this sneak attack at night gave the Sam soldiers a heavy blow again.
The endless new things coming out of Dasong’s army make them more and more desperate.
“General, you need to move now. The frontline trenches are finished and our army is disintegrating.” An officer staggered to Bolton, looking anxious.
Afterwards, they entered with unknown small cannons and continuous firing muskets, and violently attacked based on the first row of trenches.
Their flanks were also attacked, and if they did not retreat they would be completely surrounded.
The expression on Bolton’s face was stiff, their soldiers were brave.
The Indians were brave when they resisted, but in the end they won.
Therefore, bravery is just a valuable quality, but it cannot determine the failure of the war.
When the level of war weapons is too disparate, the war will tilt towards the victor.
“Retreat!” Bolton ordered.
He believed that the Sam people, including himself, were overconfident in their imagination of war.
Perhaps they should never have resisted the Great Song Army on the west coast in the first place.
Instead, they should stay on the east coast and wait for support from the western world.
Now they were taking huge casualties but achieving no war gains.
After receiving his order, the Sam troops evacuated the trenches one after another.
In the landing battle, they completely failed…
Early the next morning.
Qin Shan walked on a battlefield filled with bullet casings and corpses.
Dasong soldiers were collecting the corpses, throwing the Sam soldiers into the ditch and burying them on the spot.
After a night of fighting, although most of the Sam army withdrew, the troops that stayed to block the attack were basically wiped out.
According to estimates, only about 200,000 Sam troops survived the battlefield.
Dasong’s army also suffered thousands of casualties.
The soldiers who were slightly injured continued to fight, but the soldiers who were seriously injured were immediately transported back to Hawaii to recuperate, where there is a hospital dedicated to the military.
“General, the Sam army is fleeing eastward, and two of our guards are pursuing us.” A general came to Qin Shan.
“Let the soldiers rest for a while and then catch up. We want to rest in the city of Sam Country.” Qin Shan said.
He judged that the Sam Army would not fight them again in the colonial cities.
Halfway through, they failed.
There is no difference between fighting them in colonial cities and sending them to death.
Just as he thought.
After Burton retreated, he led his army eastward without stopping.
The Sam people in the colonial territory were like frightened birds.
They didn’t even have time to take their property with them, so they followed the Sam army to retreat to the eastern colonial territory.
In the afternoon, Dasong’s army took full control of Sam Country, the largest colonial territory on the west coast.
While Long Beach was victorious, the battles at St. Francis and Seattle were similarly one-sided.
The combat effectiveness of the Marine Corps is comparable to that of the Blue Dragon Army.
Facing the Sam Army, which was much weaker than Long Beach, their attack went more smoothly.
The Blue Dragon Army occupied San Francisco half a day earlier.
The war in Seattle was similar.
The Indian army quickly captured the city of Seattle.
Although they all used muskets and artillery that were eliminated by the Dasong army.
But these firearms are also a whole generation ahead of the Sam army.
Moreover, as the battle for the restoration of the Indian nation, the Indian soldiers fought very fiercely.
It can be said that regardless of casualties and the superiority of weapons, they fought this battle very beautifully.
Victories were achieved in three directions almost simultaneously, consolidating the occupied colonial territories.
Qinshan, Zhou Yi and Pan Chang went to Seattle, controlled by the Indian army, to meet with Watusi and the Indian army commander Omaha to formulate the next strategy.
“I think there is no need to rush to attack eastward. If we go too deep behind enemy lines, supply problems may arise.” Qin Shan pondered.
After a pause, he continued: “You should use the colonial territories in the west as a base to recruit Indians scattered in the Sam Country to expand your strength.”
“General Qin is right. If we can get the support of the scattered tribes, then they will become our eyes and granary. In this way, our supplies will no longer be a problem, and we can grasp the situation of the Sam Army at the first time. .” Watus said.
Omaha also nodded.
Pan Chang smiled. In his opinion, it was the true biography of Zhao Xu, the emperor of Qin Shan Shen.
His purpose in doing this is similar to what they did to the people of the South when they were praising the Civil War.
This continent belongs to the Indians, and it is necessary to unite all Indians.
Furthermore, they are not afraid of confronting the Sam State army, but they are afraid of Sam State engaging in guerrilla warfare with them.
But if Watus controls all the Indians in this land, then the Sam Kingdom will not be able to use this tactic.
On the contrary, the Indians used this tactic to further attack the country of Sam.
Of course, they have another layer to consider.
That is, the Dasong army tried not to get involved in this war.
Their most important role was to open up the situation and give the nascent Indian country room to grow.
Finally let them drive out the Sam people with their own hands.
