When the British army marched towards the Atlantic Ocean.
Long Yan, who is far away in the east, can quickly get information even across an ocean due to the development of wireless telegraph machines.
Long Yan's current wireless telegraph technology has developed to the point where it is the fastest means of communication in this era.
The information was sent from Saxony, and it only took one day to reach Longyan.
"Master Liu, there is an urgent message from Saxony. There are a large number of battleships leaving the port in Britain, and the direction of their advance is unknown."
Liu Zheng hugged Xiao Liu Qian and said casually back.
Let the servant go down.
According to recent intelligence, Britain's destination is likely to be America.
This was not the first time that Qing Yangshuo had received news. A man named George wanted the colonial areas in America to be independent, and he hoped that Long Yan could provide him with the necessary help.
And according to the current intelligence, the most likely thing is that turmoil has occurred in America.
From the Boston Massacre to the Boston Tea Party, the people of the British colonies in North America had long been unable to tolerate such autocratic rule.
The outbreak of an uprising was also expected.
According to the historical trend of the previous life, this war directly led to the birth of subsequent world powers.
The British Empire, which has the title of "the sun never sets," directly became the British Empire.
Long Yan has already occupied enough interests in America, and he does not intend to directly participate in this war.
But he also didn’t want anyone to disrupt its layout in America.
"Tell Qing Yangshuo that we can provide weapons, but do not send troops to participate in the war."
For Liu Zheng, only resources are more important in the American territory.
What he wants to do now is to promote cars to the world, start the second industrial revolution, and let Long Yan lead this complete change.
The reason why Britain is strong is because the Industrial Revolution and free trade have brought it to the forefront of the world. Cutting-edge technology has made Britain unrivaled at sea.
Although the current Long Yan is already top-notch in terms of technology, there is still no way to make all nations bow their heads!
And the cutting-edge technological invention of the engine will allow Long Yan to make further progress.
Reproduce the grand occasion of all nations coming to court.
…
America.
The British battleships were still on their way to Boston Harbor, in order to allow the battleships to land without hindrance.
Sheldon prepares to attack a weapons warehouse near Boston.
Suppress the local rebels.
Late at night, the sky was dark.
Sheldon's troops set off from the port of Boston and headed to Lexington, where there was a warehouse of the Boston Armed Forces, which according to investigations contained a large amount of weapons.
However, the march of the British Royal Guards was too ostentatious.
The bright red military uniform cannot be ignored even in the dark night.
At this time, Qin Changfeng accompanied Captain Vino out of the tavern where the lights were still on, and saw a British Royal Guard neatly carrying muskets, walking towards the city gate.
The two people who were drunk at first became very energetic.
The British commander also noticed Vino and said hello.
"Hi, Captain."
"What are you going to do?" Captain Vino asked doubtfully.
The other party grinned and said, "You don't need to know this, but you have to consider the conditions that Mr. Sheldon has given you quickly."
"I still have a mission to say goodbye." The commander turned and left.
Looking at the direction they left, Captain Vino said doubtfully.
"Why are the Royal Guards dispatched at this time, with guns?"
Qin Changfeng laughed: "You can tell from their expressions, they are serious expressions rushing to the battlefield."
"You didn't notice that some soldiers were still holding their guns and shaking. This is a sign of worry and excitement."
This sentence was like an enlightenment, and Captain Vino suddenly woke up.
When he disappeared, his subordinates told him that many strangers had come to the Lexington weapons depot recently.
At first he didn't care much about it, but when he thought about the direction in which the British Royal Guards were leaving tonight, he was suddenly shocked!
"They're going to do it tonight!"
"Paul, William!"
"Quick, go notify the people in Lexington and let them get ready!"
Captain Vino yelled at the young man beside him, urging him to get on the horse.
Before Paul and William could understand what was going on, Captain Vino handed them the riding crop and slapped the horse's butt!
The war horse rushed out instantly.
Captain Vino said from behind: "Take the small road and get there before the Royal Guards attack!"
Qin Changfeng was surprised when he saw the hurried Captain Vinod. When he heard Lexington, he understood everything.
Lexington is the rebel weapons depot established by Captain Vinod, and it is a crucial place for them.
After explaining this, Captain Wei Nuo looked at Qin Changfeng nervously: "Sorry, brother Qin, it seems that my cooperation with you will be advanced."
"Okay, that's no problem at all!"
"Okay!" Captain Vino took a deep breath, mounted his horse and headed towards his troops.
…
At this time, in the dark night, two people who had recovered from their emotions were riding horses and galloping along.
On the way, they saw the British troops marching towards Lexington. They were frightened and hurriedly turned into the forest to avoid being discovered by the troops.
When they reached the village of Lexington, the sky was already bright.
Looking at the safe and sound village, the two men breathed a sigh of relief, but they would not be left with much time.
They knocked on every house, shouting:
"Wake up, wake up!"
"British troops are coming to attack soon, everyone, hurry up and prepare!"
"quick!"
The silent night was instantly broken. The villagers who were woken up were stunned. When they saw Paul and William, who were the 'Sons of Liberty', their resentment was half gone.
The village chief asked: "What is going on, where is Captain Vinod? What British troops are coming?"
Paul looked at the unmoved village chief and villagers. He was so anxious that he couldn't even breathe. He just said: "We saw the British troops on the road, and they are coming here!"
The village chief was shocked. He knew exactly why the British troops had passed.
"Quick, quick, let the old and children go first, the young people stay and fight!"
"The British troops are coming soon!"
The villagers were immediately panicked upon hearing this. Yes, they had known that this day would come sooner or later.
Captain Vino also trained these militiamen.
Every household here has a gun.
Old people, children and women hurriedly fled from the path behind the village.
The men in the village took out their own guns, including double-barreled shotguns and muskets, and each weapon was different.
William and Paul also joined the battlefield.
At this time, it was just dawning, and bright red clothes followed the light and came into the village.
Seeing the British soldiers, the people in the village had already prepared everything because of William and Paul.
On the lawn in front of the village, dozens of villagers glared at the British soldiers who were about to attack the existence.
Bang!
Gunshots broke out everywhere, and the two sides suddenly fell into a fierce battle.
The war of American immigrants against the colonists has officially begun!
