The battle for New York City begins from this moment!
In the first confrontation, the rebels of the Continental Congress were defeated!
Britain had not completed its occupation of the main urban area of New York City, but the power of the relevant troops of the Continental Congress had not yet been completely wiped out.
According to intelligence, the Continental Congress troops entered Manhattan Island.
Although George's decisiveness saved most of the strength of the Continental Congress Army.
But the situation is still not optimistic.
At this moment, on the island of Manhattan.
Bonaparte led the troops and built various fortifications on the island according to his plan.
If you just put your troops on Manhattan Island, they will eventually be defeated by the British troops.
There is a huge gap between their strength and equipment.
At this time, they need to find more possibilities and strive to wear down the British troops bit by bit.
At least until French reinforcements arrive!
Bonaparte's plan was to divide the troops into three places, leaving soldiers on Long Island and Staten Island respectively, forming a horn with Manhattan Island!
This can delay the attack of the British troops to the greatest extent.
Even if they retreat, their troops are capable enough to withdraw.
At this moment, after three days of running, the troops led by George finally broke away from the pursuing British troops and arrived on Manhattan Island.
He came to the island to attack for three days without any time to rest, and immediately came to the temporary combat command center!
"How Bonaparte arranged it."
"I got rid of the British troops off Long Island, but you know that won't delay them for long."
"They'll find it here soon."
Bonaparte took out several small maps and had no time to explain to George the meaning of his marks on the maps. He just said: "Our soldiers have already headed to Long Island and Staten Island!"
"But our defenses are not built enough."
"This will only delay the British attack."
"If we don't have enough troops and equipment, we will probably lose this battle."
Bonaparte handed him a report in his hand and said in a deep voice: "I am French."
Hearing these words, George looked at Bonaparte seriously.
The implication of this sentence is that if this war is going to fail, Bonaparte will leave here early.
George fully understood why Bonaparte did what he did.
If he is asked to go to a strange country to support them, and if he has foreseen that the end of the war will be failure, he would be a fool if he does not leave!
George patted Bonaparte on the shoulder, took out a pen he was carrying from his arms and gave it to Bonaparte.
He said, "When you leave, you can take this pen with you."
"The guards won't make things difficult for you when they see this pen. If you go to Longyan, there won't be any big problem."
Bonaparte nodded and took the pen without ceremony.
"If the situation reaches a point of no return, I will leave."
After putting away the pen, he said again: "The situation we are facing now is a little worse than imagined."
"We need reinforcements, Sir George. If the British troops attack, our current situation cannot last for five days!"
Hearing this, George frowned: "Don't worry, I have already ordered people to invite Wan Shang and Fang Dalong. Long Yan will give us reinforcements."
…
At this time, General William had captured the New York City Government.
The British troops who came here did not regard the immigrants here as human beings at all.
In order to retaliate against George, General William directly ordered the American immigrants in New York City to be arrested on various charges to prevent them from informing the military of the Continental Congress.
It also prevents them from providing any help to the Continental Congress Army.
General William, who captured New York City, did not let the British troops stop, because according to their intelligence, they already knew the specific location of the enemy troops.
The city hall has been commandeered as the British Forces command room.
General William said to his army commander: "Wherever the rebels are found, attack wherever they are."
“Long Island and Staten Island are our targets now.”
His men glanced at the map and said in a deep voice: "What to do with the people in New York City? There are too many of them. If we retreat and arrest people to start riots, there may be unexpected consequences!"
General William sneered: "Treat them the same way we treat the natives!"
"Those who have relatives, threaten them with their relatives, and those who don't, threaten them with their own lives and let them go to the battlefield!"
"They will serve as our cannon fodder, do you understand what I mean?"
The officer hesitated, then finally decided to shut up.
They often do this kind of thing, and the effect is pretty good. Civil strife will occur in those colonies.
The hatred between races will gradually deepen.
In their eyes, these American immigrants from Britain were people of another race.
Not to mention the British nation, it doesn’t exist at all!
These people deserve to be colonized, and they should be grateful for it!
If there was no Britain, America would still be a foreign land, with no civilization known at all.
Just a bunch of barbarians!
Under General William's reign of terror, too many American immigrants were threatened and forced to join the death squads.
Soon, under the command of General William.
These troops were sent to the battlefield as vanguards.
Although Long Island and Staten Island were separated by sea, the Continental Rebel Army without any battleships could not stop the British troops who wanted to land.
Therefore, the Continental Rebel Army designed an ambush on the island.
As soon as the British troops landed, their soldiers would trigger these ambushes.
This is a trap designed by Bonaparte.
It was to resist the hugely lethal trap designed by the British forces.
At this moment, the rebel soldiers on Long Island and Staten Island were extremely vigilant. They had already made complete preparations and were ready to attack.
They are full of confidence in their traps!
Their commander suddenly became nervous when he saw the huge Dreadnought-class battleship rising from the sea at this time.
Such an iron-hulled ship can compete with Long Yan's supply ship.
The commander took a deep breath, looked at the ambushed soldiers, and said in a deep voice: "Hold on, our target is the soldiers on the ships, not the ships!"
"When the British soldiers enter our ambush circle, start firing. We will destroy their troops here!"
"Fight back to New York and let our people gain true freedom!"
Looking at the Dreadnought-class battleship getting closer and closer, the commander took out a love letter that he had prepared a long time ago.
He kissed the name on the love letter, a woman named Marilyn.
"My dear, when I go back to New York City, we will get married..."
