"Report to the Commander, a large number of British warships suddenly appeared near Saratoga Bay, the number is far greater than before!"
"Our port has been lost! The situation is urgent and the troops are requesting reinforcements!"
"Commander, Marshal William is leading the army to attack Preston City, and General Bonaparte has already led his troops to meet the enemy!"
…
Each piece of information taken individually is extremely lethal.
But now all this information came out in a swarm, catching George off guard!
Supply lines were broken, sea control was taken away by Britain, and the two most important cities, Philadelphia and New York City, were now threatened.
This time Britain came out in full force!
It is to eradicate their Continental Congress in one fell swoop!
George took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He must not make the slightest mistake in this war, otherwise, it would bring him endless regret!
"Call Preston's soldiers to fight immediately and solve the trouble here first!"
…
And at this time, Saratoga Bay.
Located in New York City, it was the most important port where the Continental Congress could get supplies in New York City.
George deployed heavy troops here to prevent the battlefield here from collapsing.
If they lose this port, the entire New York City's aid will be cut off. Without the front line of supplies, there will be no possibility of victory.
But at this moment, Xiao Leien, the general with a heavy army in hand, fell into despair.
Facing the sudden appearance of the British fleet, even with 20,000 defenders, Shoreyan could not withstand the opponent's attack.
At this time, on the sea level of Saratoga Bay, a full thirty British battleships surged forward.
Even the Dragon Flame Fleet was temporarily avoiding the edge at this time.
As for the navy established by the Continental Congress, Shoreline directly ordered to give up useless resistance at sea and withdraw to the highlands south of Saratoga Bay.
Through the telescope, Shoren saw tens of thousands of British troops landing on the coast after a bombardment.
He doesn't want to desert, nor does he want to become the opponent's rebel!
"Attack and defend this high ground to the death!"
"attack!"
Xiao Laien's troops had already established reliable positions on the high ground.
The reason why they did not choose to ambush the British troops on the shore was because their artillery could not pose any threat to Britain's Dreadnought-class battleships.
Instead of confronting the Dreadnought-class battleships on the shore, it is better to focus the attack on those soldiers!
Relying on the high ground, Shoreline's regiment, with a total of 300 artillery pieces and 10,000 muskets, attacked the British troops on the shore.
Suddenly, Saratoga Bay fell into a scorched earth.
The 30,000 soldiers who landed in Britain established defensive positions on the battlefield against artillery fire to counterattack the troops of the Continental Congress.
They were bound to suffer heavy casualties, and countless soldiers gave their lives under artillery fire.
Old Pete was on the Dreadnought-class battleship and saw the specific conditions on the battlefield. Many of their troops died while setting up a defensive line against artillery fire.
The spectacular battle is one of the cruelest things in human history!
The bloody limbs of the soldiers formed a defensive wall to resist the enemy's attack.
"Give me a bullet..." A soldier from the Continental Congress asked the person next to him for a bullet, but suddenly found that there was no one in that position.
His comrades had fallen into a pool of blood.
The two of them participated in the war together and agreed to earn enough military merit to go back and buy a piece of land to become free planters...
Before he could react, the cannonball suddenly came.
boom!
…
Old Pete said coldly and ruthlessly: "Let the warships cooperate with their attack. We must end the battle as soon as possible and blockade Virginia!"
The soldier hesitated for a moment, but when he saw the captain next to him signaling, he immediately went down to organize the attack.
Old Pitt was not an admiral, he was Prime Minister of Britain.
Ordinarily, he would not come here anyway. After all, it is too dangerous and not suitable for the arrival of the British Prime Minister at this time.
But since he learned that his only son Pino died in Liu Zheng's hands.
He used the power in his hands to come to the battlefield in the name of the military governor.
He wanted to make a quick decision while Liu Zheng was still in America!
Attack Virginia in one fell swoop and defeat the opponent!
Britain's thirty Dreadnought-class battleships moved closer to the battlefield.
The attack range of their artillery is an astonishing five hundred meters, and there is no problem at all in attacking the American troops on the high ground!
However, the furthest attack distance of Shoreyan's artillery was only two hundred meters. Even the artillery shells that could attack the British fleet had no effect at all.
Their shells could not penetrate the armor of the enemy's battleship Britannia.
Thirty British Dreadnought-class battleships can use a total of thirty artillery pieces!
boom!
The British battleships made a heavy roar, and mankind's top artillery shells fell on the high ground.
It exploded with a bang.
Xiao Laien only felt a white light flash before his eyes, and everything after that seemed as if it had never happened.
This was followed by a silent roar.
The soldiers closest to the explosion who were not killed were only bleeding from their orifices and their eardrums were ruptured.
This attack cost them two thousand troops!
We can't continue fighting like this. If we stay in the bombardment circle of the enemy battleships, their lives will inevitably be decided here!
Xiao Laien couldn't bear to see his soldiers die in vain...
But taking a step back will allow the enemy to take a step forward.
The more the enemy forces advance into, the more territory they will lose.
After each round of shelling, the dust was filled with the smell of blood. Xiao Laien gritted his teeth and said: "Retreat!"
"retreat!"
"No more fighting, no more fighting!"
"This is not war, this is massacre!"
…
At this time, New York City, Philadelphia, and Virginia are all under siege!
At this time, Green came to visit!
"Master Liu, Your Highness the Princess, Britain has launched a war of annihilation against us. It's dangerous here, so please leave quickly!" Green said pleadingly.
"I have prepared the carriage."
"Why do we always encounter this kind of thing when we go on a trip!" Liu Zheng complained angrily.
Xie Chan looked at Liu Zheng, sat next to him and said, "Liu Zheng, why don't we leave? I'm afraid it won't be safe here."
Liu Zheng nodded, Xie Chan was right, but Long Yan had already joined the battlefield because of him!
"Chan'er, I will arrange for you to leave. Long Yan has already intervened in the war between America and Britain. In this case, I, the chief assistant of Long Yan, will not withdraw!"
Liu Zheng looked at Green and said loudly: "Tell George and show him what war is!"
Liu Zheng pressed the send button on the telegraph machine, and a telegraph signal flew thousands of miles, crossed mountains, and jumped over the sea to Liangzhou!
