At this time, America!
Qin Changfeng led a group of 4,000 troops to lurk near New York City.
For this city that does not have city walls but is protected by so-called fortresses, it is not too easy to attack it!
But even so, Qin Changfeng did not underestimate the enemy.
He carefully studied the architecture of New York City and the scattered fortresses that defended it.
And according to the information they received, there were only 30,000 British troops garrisoning in New York City at the moment.
The quantity is not too much.
Although their strength was only 4,000, they were several times behind the enemy's strength.
But this is also an advantage for them. New York City is not too small, and it is impossible for the British army to gather all their troops together.
Their troops must be scattered in various fortresses.
As long as the British troops fail to react and capture all these fortresses, they will win this war!
But that's not the point. The point is that 20,000 reinforcements from Quebec are already on the way.
If they want to capture New York City, this is the best time!
After Qin Changfeng formulated the battle plan, he immediately launched a devastating attack on New York City.
The cavalry led by him were like an unstoppable arrow, attacking rapidly.
Qin Changfeng created a new style of fighting, and with the improvement of the current level of weapons and equipment, Qin Changfeng no longer relied solely on the role of cavalry in charging on the battlefield.
They no longer rely on infantry to fight side by side.
These playing methods are too backward for Qin Changfeng!
Qin Changfeng took advantage of the war horse's ability to move quickly and pull heavy objects, and directly used the war horse to carry the extremely destructive Dragon Flame Cannon.
Every time they fight, Qin Changfeng gives direct orders.
Artillery fire plows the ground!
Use a terrifying number of artillery to directly destroy the enemy's ground buildings, and then launch a charge against them.
Under such an attack, the British troops could not resist at all.
Qin Changfeng started his attack from the east of New York City.
Push all the way!
New York City does not have high walls like Long Yan, and most of the eastern part of New York City is still farmland.
In such an environment, Long Yan's cavalry can show its greatest combat effectiveness!
By the time General William got his attack, a large hole had been opened in the eastern part of New York City.
"You mean the Longyan Army has also joined the battle?"
"No, I'm not sure..."
"That unit has no designation. Apart from the fact that they have the faces of Dragon Flame people, their other characteristics are nothing like the Dragon Flame Army we are familiar with."
"They claimed to be fighting to support the freedom of the colonies."
Hearing these words, General William's expression changed drastically.
He did not expect that Long Yancheng would join the battle in this way.
Although the other party didn't say it clearly, no matter how you looked at it, a very clear conclusion was ready to come out.
Able to have such a strong fighting power.
And besides Long Yan, they can't think of any other country that can join the Duai Battlefield at this time.
General William looked at the map.
The east side of New York City wasn't that important to them.
Now that Long Yanjun joined the battlefield, he already thought that they would send a very dangerous signal.
Although Longyan City did not directly declare war, judging from the current results, it is almost the same as if Longyan directly declared war.
He must kill the Continental Congress as soon as possible!
To end this absurd war, as long as the Continental Congress Army is completely defeated, the war will end, and then there will be no difficulty in dealing with this Dragon Flame Army.
"General, I have mobilized my troops and are ready to counterattack at any time!"
General William shook his head and said: "No, we will not counterattack."
"We are going to attack south, capture Manhattan Island, attack New Jersey and defeat the Continental Congress' troops in one fell swoop!"
Hearing these words, the officer was slightly startled.
General William glanced at him and said calmly: "The only way to end this war is to defeat the Continental Congress!"
"Only then will their reinforcements withdraw, and now we have this perfect opportunity!"
The officer nodded: "I will send the troops to attack Manhattan Island right now!"
…
At this time, New Jersey.
George had made second-hand preparations. He had arranged troops to block the British forces on Manhattan Island.
On the other side he arranged for the rebels to retreat if Manhattan Island could not hold out.
They will fight the British Army in New Jersey and they will definitely be annihilated!
In order to protect the effective strength of the troops, counterattack in the future.
George had no choice but to make this move!
But there is a key point in this plan, that is, the eastern part of New York City must be under their control. Otherwise, they will once again face such a life-and-death situation!
According to Wan Shang, a force will attack the eastern part of New York City today.
Will help them get to New York City.
But now it seems that this prophecy has not come true, and they have not received any information about the fighting in New York City so far.
George, who had always trusted Wan Shang and Fang Dalong, became suspicious of this.
At this moment, George suddenly received an urgent piece of information.
"Is there news from New York City?" George asked hurriedly.
Green, who was delivering the information, shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Manhattan Island was attacked by the British Army. There were 30,000 of them!"
"This is bad news." George said disappointedly.
There was only one way to choose before them at this moment.
"Withdraw your troops. Even if we are going to die, we have to attack New York City, not New Jersey." George said in a deep voice.
Green glanced at him: "What if the eastern part of New York City is not captured?"
"A lot of people are already very dissatisfied with our performance."
"There is even information among the people that the Continental Congress will soon be wiped out by the British army."
George looked firmly into the distance and said in a deep voice: "Even if we fail, our successors may not fail!"
"The colonial areas must be liberated and independent. There is no room for maneuver in front of the colonies and the mother country on this matter!"
Green took a deep breath, expressing his firm belief in George.
Green was speechless. He just stood up and patted the opponent on the shoulder, and then said: "I will organize the troops and withdraw immediately."
George glanced at Green and nodded.
He was extremely worried. Until now, no news had come out from New York City, if it was true as Green said.
Their plan was ruined.
After that happens, the rebels in the Continental Congress will also fall into an extremely passive situation.
