Chapter 221 Make big news! The United States has another election!
In fact, the reason why Yang Willie gave this suggestion was nothing more than an idea, that is, he hoped that the Indians and Juarez government forces would get angry, so that this news would let His Majesty the Emperor of the Southern Empire Group know!
Due to the current conditions, it is difficult to transmit information quickly and in time. The terrain of Mexico is like this, all of them are mountains. It would be good if you go south directly, but there are Juarez government troops in the south. If you go back the same way, it would be at least three or four months. By then, my own group of people would probably have explained here.
There were only more than 1,000 people who wanted supplies but no supplies, and no ammunition. When they followed the Indians, they were very good at finding things, but now, this matter is more difficult.
And if the Indians went to the south to fight Juarez, then this would be a big event!
To put it bluntly, Yang Weili wanted to make a big news, maybe he would do this, and the news would be delivered faster. Then if His Majesty the Emperor knew, he would definitely lead his troops north. Wouldn't his own group of people have hope?
"Okay! I'll go find Geronimo now!" Song Yulong understood as soon as he heard it. Then just do it, his face...
"Report!" At this moment, someone rushed in again.
"What are you panic?" The messenger looked very panicked, and Song Yulong naturally wanted to scold him or her.
After taking a good breath, the messenger said, "Report, the Indians are heading south!"
"Ah?" Song Yulong and the other three were all shocked. Could it be that these guys could hear their discussion?
"Everyone!" At this moment, as if he was standing in front of him, Geronimo also entered the military tent. "Hey. I'm really old. Those guys don't listen to me anymore, hey~"
Geronimo seemed to have grown a lot at this time. He was not in a high mood now, and obviously he had suffered some blows before.
"What's going on?" Song Yulong had no choice but to ask first.
"Speaking of it... forget it, I'm not afraid of embarrassing anymore!..."
Na Geronimo began to say that it turned out that the more than 10,000 people under his command were also pieced together. The Apache tribe also divided into many tribes. When everyone heard that they could go back to Mexico, it would be better for everyone to come, and they would be very happy to kill along the way. But now, seeing that the US military is powerful, these guys have other ideas.
Twenty thousand people had run away before. They were preparing to work with the US military and were also preparing to fight back to their hometown. In fact, to the north, it was Junzhou, New Mexico, where they live now. It can be said that these guys went around this area and then went back.
As for the Apache people, they saw that the guys ran north and ran north. If they followed them, it would be a bit embarrassing. Following others' butts, they would just go south. Anyway, I won't say it at the beginning, I'm going back to my hometown!
So, the current situation was formed, and a lot of people ran away, and now there were less than two thousand people who could follow Geronimo.
In fact, there are various interests within any ethnic group. They come to fight to pursue their own interests. If they cannot be satisfied, they are more wild and undisciplined ethnic groups, which will definitely cause division.
This has been the case in history. Only a truly highly civilized nation will not do so. For example, although our Chinese nation is divided and merged, there are still more mergers.
Willie Yang knew that it was not the time to sigh at first, so the current situation was very interesting. There was no need to convince anyone. The Indians went south by themselves, but...
"Well, can there be food in Awumada Town?"
"..." Everyone looked at me, and I looked at you, and they were speechless.
"Forget it! Let's withdraw too! Mr. Geronimo, you guys follow me too!"
"This...well..."
There is nothing to do. Geronimo doesn't want to follow him. He can't beat the US military...
The whole of Mexico is now in chaos. It was originally a place for many forces to compete. Now everyone has shown their fangs. Of course, it seems that the situation in the south is almost the same, but in the middle and north, it is probably even more chaotic situations will come soon!
However, in some places, some forces react very quickly.
"Sometimes ago, our El Paso defenders suffered a blow from the power of the American Emperor, and suffered heavy casualties! For such an aggression, our United States of America must resolutely fight back!... The American Empire is originally an illegal government, and that emperor is also an illegal emperor. Our United States of America will never recognize it! Our United States of America here declares that we will declare war on the American Empire now! Forever!"
After learning that El Paso was attacked, US Secretary of State Sward directly pointed his finger at the American Empire and Emperor Clint Lee I.
However, if this matter is made internationally, you should know that the United States' telegrams are still very developed and the message is transmitted very quickly. In other words, it will not take long to know about Europe and Asian countries, but it is difficult for the south of Mexico to know.
Yes, it's so weird, and the current conditions are like this.
But why did Sward react quickly and say so terrible?
It's actually very simple, that's time.
It is November 1864 now, and the United States is going to hold a general election again!
Li Mengyang, a time traveler, really doesn't know much about the US election, especially the current 1864 election. Of course, what we are talking about here is the details.
Because what we learned is that Lincoln was re-elected, which is normal in the eyes of the Chinese. The American Civil War was good and it was about to win. Moreover, this is Lincoln, one of the most outstanding presidents in the United States. Is there any problem with his re-elect?
Actually, the problem is big!
Even if it was the original history that Li Mengyang didn’t know much about, the Lincoln Group was in danger in the 1864 presidential election!
This can be seen from a very simple and obvious place. In 1864, Lincoln's team found a man named Andrew Johnson to be the vice presidential candidate.
Who is this Andrew Johnson?
He is from North Carolina. He is a Southerner, and he is a Democrat!
A Republican presidential election will have to be re-elected, but he has to find a Democrat to be his deputy partner. What is this mentality?
Isn’t it just a desperate mentality of jumping over the wall?
So, in fact, the common people of the American Federation did not buy Lincoln's account at that time, and there were several major defeats in 1864.
The most famous one is the Battle of Fredericksburg. The Northern Army threw down tens of thousands of corpses and ran away.
And now, it’s even more amazing!
In Petersburg, the federal army was simply defeated, and they were directly pushed back, and Robert Lee seized the opportunity again, leading the army to invade Pennsylvania again!
This is the third time, and this time Robert Lee will not come to Gettysburg again stupidly. He even changed his route to march. That fort is far away, otherwise he would have another fight to earn shoes?
In addition, on the Western Front, Grant did not have much gains from his 100,000 troops. Although he was much better than Burnside, at least he was not defeated, but the current situation is that everyone is playing trenches outside Atlanta. You can repair it well, but I can repair it better than you!
You know, as long as the trench is done, it will be difficult to deal with in the current tactics and tactics. Although the current US Federal Army has mortars, I don’t know whether this thing was learned from the French or some copycat. Anyway, they have it, but it is difficult for this kind of thing to achieve too much effect.
There is no way, the accuracy of the mortars in this era is too bad, and they basically rely on the confusion. Although the mortars are the ancestors of mortars, they do not have the imperial emperor Li Mengyang after all.
In fact, the most important point of the civil war to this point is not on the battlefield, but on the economy behind it!
In fact, long before Gettysburg, the economy in the south had already collapsed. There was a large group of women who had no flour to make bread and protested. Although Jefferson Davis eventually persuaded the women to go home with his own mouth, there were actually hundreds of soldiers from the south standing behind him.
The most active trade route at that time was the Mississippi River, which was the place where the north and south were divided. Every day, there were many ships who risked being sunk to transport east and west to the south!
That's right, the Northern Federation is indeed blocking the river, but facing that huge profit, a bucket of flour in the south has reached $70, and it can't be stopped!
But after all, there are still many unlucky guys who sank into the bottom of the river...
In other words, the reason why Robert Lee was impatient at that time was because he wanted to end the entire war quickly. He actually realized that the South could not hold on at all, and if he could quickly win Washington, then the South would win and the war would be over.
But it's a pity that things don't go as they wish...
But now it’s different. The continuous transport of agricultural products, daily necessities, arms, and all kinds of things from Cuba is to get ashore from the Florida Strait and then go to the railway. This is really the lifeline of the Southern Federation!
Although these products are labeled as Cuba, when will Cuba build arms?
Obviously, this is what was produced by the American Empire, those iconic revolvers, metal loading bullets... Everyone knows it, everyone understands it, but everyone turns a blind eye.
In other words, the current situation is that the north has not destroyed the south militarily or blocked the south economically. How can the people be happy?
In addition, there are some defeats, so do you think you don’t have the idea of changing the president?
Anyway, before the election, the Republicans' head hurts so much. Not only are rumors spreading, but there are still undercurrents within them... (To be continued...)
