Boom! Boom!

Bang bang! Bang bang bang!

Countless shells and bullets were smashing into the cornfield, but the soldiers of the Northern Federation and the Confederate were still waving their sabers and whistles by their commanders....≦

And as long as the troops entering this cornfield are...

"Those who were beaten to death fell in line to where they were standing in the combat queue just now." This was General Hook's memory, and he was trembling when he said these words.

There are dead people everywhere, and even whole groups of people are filled in!

Maybe this is not the first time in the Civil War, because Alfred Wood did this when he was in Newark, but it is obvious that the generals are fighting like this, so everyone is almost the same.

Neither side has machine guns, which really comes from God. However, the power of artillery and ferry guns in this era has been perfectly demonstrated. As long as someone enters this cornfield, it will be difficult for him to come out with all his head and tail.

The casualties of the personnel were too fast, and Jackson had no choice but to send his final reserve team shortly after the war began.

General John Bell Hood!

This guy is not a kind person. If Li Mengyang were there, he would definitely be a little touched by this guy's men, because they are all from the US military in Texas!

In other words, they are all veterans, and their combat effectiveness is very strong. The gun volleyball formation they formed is much stronger than those new recruits. It is these guys fighting against the Indians. The bullets they shot out were like the sickle of the god of death. This is the evaluation of the federal soldiers. But.

When General Hood evacuated the cornfield, he asked one of his subordinates, "Where is your soldiers?"

"Everyone died there!"

Sixty percent of General Hood's subordinates died in the cornfield in battle. They were all veterans, and the veterans were consumed like this. I have to say that this is really sad.

In just one morning, more than 8,000 people fell from the cornfield, and this battle was called the Battle of Antitam. Named after a small river, it was the same as the Battle of Manassas, the Battle of Bull River. However, this battle was extremely shocking for one day alone.

According to statistics from the Northern Federation, 2,108 people were killed and 10,293 were missing or injured. In the south, Robert Lee lost 10,318 people.

You know, missing these days is just a beautiful saying. And injury and death are almost the same word, and too few can survive.

This was the bloodiest day of the Civil War. However, the war could have ended on this day, because as long as McClellan sends another army to chase him, Robert Lee's troops will be wiped out. You know, Robert Lee has only more than 40,000 people in total, while McClellan has nearly 100,000 people.

But unfortunately, that guy McClellan probably had been scared.

There is actually one reason why it is so tragic and tingling, that is, the generals of this era fought in this way, and now the weapons have become very advanced, and the rifles can be shot very accurately, and even snipers have appeared.

But no matter what, the Northern Army won a victory, which also made Lincoln relieved. He took the opportunity to sign the "Declaration on the Liberation of Slaves", but you should know that this declaration was just a declaration and had not yet come into effect. In addition, in fact, only a few states were mentioned, that is, most of the black slaves were still slaves.

But, however, the civil war in the East was so fierce, so Lincoln was in the mood to take care of California?

October 1, 1862, California.

The sun is still so bright, but after almost a month of reconstruction, the situation in California has improved slightly. If the house is destroyed, live in a tent first. If the house is fine, it will be more convenient.

Now, the entire California has stabilized, the economic situation has recovered a little, and the order is good. At least those worrying hoarding phenomena have not come out. The American dollar, namely, Clint Lee I, the emperor's hard-lined banknotes have been circulated in San Francisco and Sacramento.

Basically, the most important part of California now is this area, so as long as this area is done, the banknote promoted by Li Mengyang will be successful. The next task is to nationalize the gold mines and not allow individuals to make gold.

This incident caused great resistance before, in late September!

Yes, it’s just resistance. So why do you come to California? Isn’t it just gold digging? You, the emperor, won’t let them explore it anymore, this…

There were indeed some protest incidents, and many people went to the streets to demonstrate, and some even had a more powerful person who simply spoke with guns.

However, the gunner was quickly suppressed, and Li Mengyang had expected this phenomenon in the morning.

But, what should I do if I protest moderately?

Li Mengyang really did not suppress him, but an unexpected person helped him.

Mark Twain!

Yes, it was the editor-in-chief of the New York Evening News who wrote a manuscript and used it to help Li Mengyang.

The general idea of ​​this manuscript is very simple, but it actually hurts the various disadvantages of gold digging!

Why is gold digging still broken?

In fact, from the beginning, the United States has had many oppositions to the gold digging, especially religious people. You should know that the United States is a Puritan world, what are Puritans?

Their meaning of existence is to wait for God’s judgment!

So, such a Puritan, why do you want so much gold?

Yes, gold digging is actually contrary to the doctrine of the Puritans, and gold digging has really led to many social problems, such as California is prosperous, but there are too many such things as robbery, force, murder.

Mark Twain saw this. He used his very sharp style to denounce all kinds of bad things about gold digging, anyway...

This has helped Li Mengyang once. However, the editor-in-chief Mark Twain has a very good relationship with Li Mengyang now.

Because why is the relationship bad?

Just because Li Mengyang was called emperor!

Mark Twain was particularly determined to oppose Clint Lee’s claim to be emperor!

Logically speaking, Mark Twain is really Clint and Li’s old man. The two of them had a good relationship before and they had always cooperated well. But even when they arrived in Panama, even after Li Mengyang was crowned, of course, the crown was thrown away by Li Mengyang. But that was not possible!

How can you, Clint Lee, be the emperor? You are a symbol of revolution!

Mark Twain really can't get around this bend. He is at this point, and it's useless to explain it to you, Clint Lee.

However, after arriving in California, Clint Lee nationalized the gold mine and did not allow gold and silver to flow. Mark Twain thought you did a good job.

One code is one code. Mark Twain is still very principled, so he wrote such an article.

Don’t say it, this article is really useful, because the root of the sin is the gold rush that happens in front of California?

So, the gold mine was taken down like this.

But to be honest, Mark Twain really hopes that Clint Lee will not be called emperor, but on October 1st.

"People!" Li Mengyang stood on the platform of San Francisco Government Square, giving a speech in a clear way.

Today's speech was very different and it became much more serious. Li Mengyang was surrounded by a group of officials. In addition to those officials, there were even Huang Rong, Yilena and Fiona.

The most important thing is that Li Mengyang is wearing a gorgeous military uniform, which is much stronger than the one he had in Panama before. The main style of this military uniform is European. However, this time, not only is there a golden dragon, but there are also many small decorations on it, such as the sun, moon, stars, auspicious clouds and bats. The most special thing is the button, which uses the kind of gold buckle handed down from the Ming Dynasty. This button is very luxurious, but it is still very low-key. Most people don’t understand, the key is that this thing also represents the Han Dynasty.

Reverse the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty!

That's sure, the design of this gorgeous costume must have been participated by Yang Guangren.

Gorgeous clothes?

That's right, this is Li Mengyang's emperor's clothing, but we no longer wear the same clothes as before. In order to reflect the combination of East and West, we use the more popular military uniforms in the West now to make the basic style. The emperors in Europe are like this.

So, that's right, today is the day when the American Socialist Democratic Empire was founded!

"After a thousand miles of trekking, our revolutionary army fought all the way from New York and finally liberated this California! It's glorious!"

Li Mengyang just stopped a little, and the audience shouted in a crowd.

“all-hail-lee!”

“all-hail-lee!”

"Long live my emperor!"

All the revolutionary army can come. The Chinese shouted differently, but they were almost the same, and Californians also shouted.

Li Mengyang pressed his hands with one hand and then said: "I announce here! The American Socialist Democratic Empire is now established!"

“all-hail-lee!”

“all-hail-lee!”

"Long live my emperor!"

The country is finally founded!

The country has finally been established!

The country has finally been established!

After Li Mengyang finished speaking, he was very excited and could not calm down for a long time.

Thinking back to the beginning, when I came to this United States, I was just a pig, a half-baby who was bare and had nothing to do. Today, I turned out to be the emperor of a country!

Looking back on the past, how many difficulties and setbacks have Li Mengyang experienced? How many failures and setbacks have he experienced?

However, he did not give up, he did not give up!

Finally, this day is here!

This day was not what it came from itself! It was made by our man! It was made from the sea of ​​blood!

Thinking of this, Li Mengyang even had a red eye circle, but he was the emperor and he could not cry. Even if he cried now, it was a true expression of his temperament, but still...

At this moment, the girl Huang Rong grabbed Li Mengyang's hand, and she whispered, "Brother Mengyang!"

"Girl." Li Mengyang really felt...

As a result, another hand came, but not long after, another hand was there!

Alas, the emperor is the emperor, and this harem has been built... (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
