Green looked at his blood-red military uniform, with blood splatters appearing on it.

A wave of pain shot through his brain.

He was stunned for a moment and looked in the direction in front of him where the bullets were fired. Death smoke rose from the dark muzzle.

It seemed to be announcing to him that death was about to arrive.

Green's vision gradually blurred, and it seemed that he could only hear his own breathing on the battlefield.

He saw how the situation on the battlefield had begun to change. Since he had joined the battle, the British forces were gaining the upper hand. If this continued, it would all be over before dawn.

He vaguely saw that the British army led by him had the upper hand on the battlefield.

Green roared and issued the final order for this battle: "British warriors must not let these hateful Indians and French cross the Ohio River and enter our territory!"

The British soldiers beside Green immediately stepped forward after seeing the state of their commander.

They saw that Green had been shot in the chest, and blood was pouring out uncontrollably.

Their expressions changed drastically, and Green closed his eyes heavily.

But the battle is not over yet.

"For Britain!"

"For Britain!"

They were all Green's direct troops. After Green's fall, their morale was not affected. On the contrary, Green's last words inspired their fighting spirit.

Three thousand British warriors finally burst out with endless fighting spirit.

But for the French troops, the fall of the British commander greatly improved their combat morale.

It’s also a morale booster for them!

The situation on the battlefield became intense again.

An epic battle is taking place on this deep stretch of the Ohio River.



Several days passed in this war.

At this moment, Fogilis.

Mount Vernon has a rare visitor today.

At this time, George was preparing to get engaged to Martha, but when he saw the person in front of him, he put down everything in his hands.

"Natasha, I was just about to invite you."

George looked at Natasha's gloomy face under the black brim of her hat, and the smile on her face suddenly stiffened.

Only then did he notice the clothes Natasha was wearing, a black dress.

Clothes of this color should only be worn when attending funerals.

George was stunned for a moment. Looking at Natasha's lost look, his brows furrowed tightly, he had a very bad feeling.

"George, I came here today to tell you something. When Green was fighting against the French army, his chest..."

"Shot in the chest..." Natasha said almost in a trembling voice.

"I don't know his condition, but I can be sure of one thing, Green..."

"Green, he can't come back!"

George was stunned and stared at Natasha.

George stared at Natasha in disbelief and laughed out loud: "You have been with Green for so long, it is better to learn to drive like this with him..."

George saw that Natasha's expression did not change at all, and his face slowly darkened: "This is true."

Natasha hummed and nodded heavily.

George's head was stunned, and he suddenly felt like he was struck by lightning. He looked at Natasha blankly, and his whole brain stopped thinking.

"You, what are you talking about?"

"What happened to Green, what happened to him!"

George held Natasha's shoulders tightly, his eyes eager to get a negative answer.

But the tears on Natasha's face and her evasive eyes told George that this matter was true!

George let go of Natasha, staggered back a few steps, and sat on the cold ground without being able to stand still. He spent half the meal in a daze, remaining silent.

Martha was slightly startled when she saw George sitting at the door and Natasha standing there.

Today is her and George's big day, so as a friend, Natasha wears an unlucky black outfit.

"George, why don't you invite Natasha to come in and sit down?"

"What are you doing standing at the door?"

"Natasha, you must attend the banquet tonight. George and I are getting engaged."

Martha watched as the two people ignored her, especially George, who seemed to have something serious on his mind.

George didn't look at Martha, but turned his back and said, "I'm sorry, Martha, our engagement is going to be delayed."

"Cancel the banquet tonight."

Martha frowned. She looked at the two people and said without asking why, "What happened."

Martha looked at Natasha, who avoided her gaze and lowered her face.

But Martha clearly heard Natasha sobbing.

She looked at George, but found that George was looking at the sky, as if he had lost his soul.

This simply didn't look like the George she knew.

George sighed and said in a deep voice: "Martha, I need a drink before I can tell you why. I'm sorry that I can't face such a thing now!"

Martha helped George, who had lost all his strength, back into the house.

George drank a glass of the strongest wine, Yinzhou Zui from Long Yan, which was also the wine he drank with Green.

The strong drink entered his throat, bringing back countless memories for George.

After George took a few deep breaths, he looked at Martha and said in a deep voice: "Greene is seriously injured. I am going to join the army."

Upon hearing this, Martha did not blame George.

Instead, she walked over and hugged George. She said softly: "Go and do what you should do."

"I will comfort Natasha for Green."

George looked at Martha's tender eyes in his arms, his expression trembling.

All the words were stuck in his throat and he couldn't say them out.

The woman in front of him gave him the greatest tenderness.

After the second day, George said goodbye to the town.

Qindu came to see him off.

George joined the British Expeditionary Force, but did not choose to be appointed commander directly by Clinsey.

His current rank in the army is just that of a squad leader.

George is very clear about Green's abilities.

From the newspapers, George already knew the whole story of the battle. Green's 3,000 elite troops fought against 10,000 French troops.

The battle was won.

It can be seen from the information in the newspaper that this battle is a surprise battle. Green is already the frontline commander, and it is impossible to mobilize only three thousand elite troops.

Moreover, the battle site is not far from the British front line, and the British troops can fully reinforce it.

However, until the end of the battle, the British troops did not send out an additional soldier.

No matter how you look at these things, they are unreasonable, so George did not accept Clancy's transfer to become a front-line commander.

In that case, the information he can get will be very one-sided.

In order to get to the bottom of this matter, George started from the grassroots level.

Until the murderer is found, no matter who it is in the end, he will have to pay a heavy price!
