Seeing this scene, Bonaparte couldn't help but look at Greene.
"You're right, let the action begin!"
Green nodded and immediately organized a force of one thousand men to cross the river.
A large force of one thousand people took several small boats and slowly sailed to the other side on the Milk River shrouded in thick fog.
The Milk River is not wide, only about a hundred meters wide.
There are plains all around, and if the British troops are alert enough, they can hear the sound of paddling on the river even under the thick fog.
But it was obvious that the noisy wind, crickets, and birds all around covered these things up.
The rebels successfully landed ashore, but Greene and Bonaparte, who had been ambushing them, no longer knew about it.
They can only wait in the dark!
When dawn falls in the morning, the thick fog has begun to become thinner!
However, at this moment, fierce gunshots suddenly came from the opposite side!
The two people who were still a little sleepy suddenly became energetic.
"They succeeded!" Green said excitedly!
He looked at Bonaparte next to him: "We can't waste any more time, we must mobilize the army immediately!"
"If we don't arrive in time, our advance troops will definitely pay a heavy price!"
Bonaparte also agreed to this battle plan. The second reinforcement force that was originally prepared was changed due to the change of plan.
They also did not choose to cross the river in a small boat.
Instead, follow the large army and fight directly across the Milk River from the ferry!
But such a choice made the reinforcements pay a heavy price. More than half of their 500-man troops were sacrificed.
At this time, the Milk River War began.
After hearing the massive gunfire, British commander Sivir realized that they were under attack!
Sivir was stunned for a second as to how the Continental Rebel Army could attack from the Milk River, and then quickly organized troops to counterattack!
"Quick, wake everyone up!"
"We were attacked and they stood up and fought!"
The British troops, who were belatedly aware of the situation, immediately rushed onto the battlefield, and the two waves of soldiers immediately started fighting.
At this time, the fortifications built by the advance troops at the risk of being discovered came into play.
Then the fortifications were built, and the Continental Congress rebels who had just crossed the river gained a foothold, preventing them from being defeated by the British troops in the first wave of battles.
And precisely because of this.
However, the cruelty of this battle was beyond imagination.
Because of the direct confrontation with the enemy, they have to pay a huge price for every step forward!
The artillery that the British soldiers came over also quickly broke through the wall they built!
It took blood and sacrifice for the Continental Congress rebels to advance even a small step, but as they advanced.
The troops behind them gradually stepped onto the battlefield.
The full-scale landing operation sweeping across the Milk River begins!
On the other side of the Milk River, the artillery positions laid out by Green also came into play.
Their presence protected the soldiers crossing the river. The sacrifice of soldiers crossing the river was greatly reduced.
Upon seeing this, British Commander Sivir immediately called for the troops to use all their strength to destroy the rebels who had crossed the river!
Prevent them from containing too many of their own troops!
After he made such a choice, he overlooked one point. This battle was not only fought by the rebels.
Bonaparte, who had already ambushed him, led the French support troops.
Break out from the battlefield and directly attack Sivir's troops.
If you want to win quickly, beheading is the easiest way!
The French troops led by Bonaparte were their elite, equipped with Dragon Flame-assisted six-shooter muskets, as well as grenades and other weapons made by Dragon Flame.
Under the surprise attack of such a force, the British troops were completely unable to react.
The grenades made by Long Yan shine in the hands of this army.
After Bonaparte's research, the power of a weapon like a grenade lies in the shrapnel. As long as scratches are cut on it, after the explosion, the shell can explode along these scratches, causing range damage!
But this is not the most important thing. Grenade can quickly destroy a group of enemies and will be very useful for their sudden attack.
With this thought in mind, Bonaparte led his troops, spreading out and throwing grenades as they walked.
Under the S-shaped marching route, wherever it went, it was difficult for the British troops to fight back!
They were really confused by this style of play.
When Sivir looked at the insurrectionary troops, his heart trembled!
He knew that the other party's target was him, and his position had been exposed in the command room.
"Quick, quick, destroy that army!"
Sivir did not sit still and wait for death, but immediately found a war horse and rode on it himself, deciding to avoid the surprise attack of the rebels first.
But at this moment, there was a gunshot!
Sivir lowered his head and looked at the blood-red color blooming on his chest. Before he could see clearly who the other party was, he fell from his horse and fell into a pool of blood!
George looked through the scope and saw that the opponent's commander was no longer moving on the ground, and he laughed.
Blow away the thin smoke from the muzzle.
"Long Yan's musket is pretty good." Green couldn't put it down with the gun in his hand.
This gun also comes from Dragon Flame.
The shape is very unique. It is longer than any musket, and it also carries a telescope called a scope with scales on the lens.
As long as you aim accurately at the enemy, this gun can hit almost every target!
Moreover, this gun has a range of more than 300 meters, making it a perfect weapon!
However, such a weapon still has quite a few shortcomings. For example, the sound of the attack is too loud, and the gun cannot fire continuously, and bullets are also very scarce.
Including the magazine, there are only three bullets in total.
After each shot, the cartridge case must be manually ejected and reloaded.
This action lasts about ten seconds, and it takes ten seconds for the enemy to kill you.
Despite this, it does not prevent Green from considering him the best musket in his mind!
…
On the battlefield, the adjutant of the British army was shocked when he saw Sivir falling down from his horse!
If an army loses their commander, everyone knows what will happen!
The coordination and mobility of their troops will be a mess!
At this time, the adjutant saw more and more mainland rebels appearing on the battlefield.
If this war continues, they will suffer the greatest defeat here.
"Withdraw the troops, withdraw the troops!"
the adjutant shouted.
He attempted to reduce losses by withdrawing his troops and then attack again after the troops made adjustments.
Battle for the Milk River!
