"They surrounded us!"
"No, we surrounded them."
The two looked at each other and smiled. The plan they made from the beginning was to annihilate the British army.
Although the plan had some twists and turns, it seems that it was overall a success.
At least the results won't be much different.
The British commander, who was praying sincerely, looked at the British troops who came to support him and wanted to die.
"It's over, everything is over..."
And his adjutant was ecstatic when he saw a force several times the enemy's strength!
"General, everything is over, we have so many troops, we will definitely win!"
The commander smiled desperately. His adjutant had not experienced the Battle of Saratoga Bay.
He had no idea how terrifying those steel monsters of the Long Yan Army were.
Even the natural protective belt that is said to be insurmountable - the jungle!
In front of these monsters, they are just a bunch of paper stuff, completely useless.
In his opinion, these British troops who came to support were just cannon fodder!
Certain death.
Those trees in the jungle have grown for years, decades, or even centuries, towering trees that no adult can hold in his arms.
In front of these steel monsters, they are as fragile as small wooden sticks, breaking easily!
Could it be that the bodies of their army soldiers were stronger than these?
What they faced was not a question of military strength at all.
What they are facing is that the weapons are no longer on the same level!
Their muskets, their artillery, their most proud equipment, no longer pose any threat to the Longyan Army!
This is the fundamental problem they face!
In the eyes of the British officers, the current battle was just like the battle they had fought against the native Africans and Native Americans.
The weapons made of wood and stone in the hands of the indigenous people had no way of causing harm to them.
Conquer a tribe.
Conquer a country and they won't even die a single soldier!
And now this gap is the gap between them and Long Yanjun!
The British commander stepped forward and said to his adjutant: "It's not too late to send troops to other fortresses and send messages to the Prime Minister to ask them to withdraw their troops!"
"We have lost this war."
The adjutant scolded: "Sir, I don't know why you want to make others more ambitious and destroy your own prestige!"
"Please take a good look, we haven't lost yet."
"This battle has just begun, our troops will annihilate these Dragon Flame Army!"
The British commander did not respond to the officer's words. He took off his hat and put aside the epaulettes symbolizing his officer.
The adjutant's expression changed when he saw this scene.
He asked angrily: "General, you are going to be a deserter!"
"Why do you do this!"
The British officer did not answer, and after all this was done, he came to the door.
Under the angry gaze of the adjutant, he turned and walked out of the command room without stopping for a moment.
"coward!"
An angry roar came from the command room behind him!
But all this has nothing to do with him. He thinks that he is a smart man. There is no hope in such a battlefield.
Since you can't win, why not run away?
Although he is a British officer, he is the most powerful person in this fortress.
But he has no faith, and essentially this war should not happen.
And the war happening at this time is a battle with no hope of victory. It is better to escape as soon as possible, at least to survive!
…
The situation on the battlefield did not happen as the adjutant had expected.
Instead, it happened just as the fleeing officer expected.
Even with the support of tens of thousands of soldiers, they could not reverse the situation.
The Dragon Flame Tank just needs to move forward, and no troops can stop it.
Many British soldiers ended up as a pool of blood and mud under the tracks of the Dragon Flame tanks, and the gunpowder in their bullets had no effect at all.
The British soldiers who participated in the war saw true despair.
Ever since the Long Yan Army's tanks entered the battlefield, they could no longer attack and kill any soldiers.
The tank standing in front of you, even with the strongest shield and armor, is the most ferocious weapon!
In front of such a monster, the British soldiers could only raise their hands and surrender!
On the hills in the distance, the former British commander looked at the fortress he was holding, and the city gate was broken open.
The once extremely strong city walls were completely reduced to ruins under the bombardment of tanks.
He turned around and left silently, not watching the outcome of this war.
And after he left, it was just as expected.
Long Yan's army rushed into the fortress, and nearly 30,000 British soldiers either died in battle or surrendered.
The adjutant is unwilling to bear the blame for his command errors and does not want to be tried by a military court!
He regretted that he had not obeyed his commander's order to retreat.
Facing the incoming Long Yan army, he pressed the musket against his head and pulled the trigger!
…
On the other side, when other fortresses sent out troops to support the southern fortress, the army led by Bonaparte launched an attack from the north!
The northern fortress is empty of troops.
The Continental Congress Army led by Bonaparte was not in vain.
At the cost of killing a thousand and two soldiers, they finally captured the northern fortress!
The two fortresses in the north and south were attacked one after another, and the main force of the British army was also defeated. This was the first time since the beginning of the American War of Independence that the British army was beaten so embarrassed!
Moreover, the Continental Congress Army played a very important role in the war this time.
Although it was the troops led by General Bonaparte.
But America's soldiers are also an integral part.
They fully demonstrated their courage in this battle and were praised by all the troops, including the Longyan soldiers.
However, the fall of the two forts did not mean that the battle in Philadelphia was over.
Prime Minister Pete Sr., who was sitting in Philadelphia, had not yet withdrawn his troops.
After the fall of the northern and southern fortresses, he ordered all British troops to retreat to Philadelphia!
There are still 30,000 soldiers in Philadelphia. With his recruitment, the total force suddenly reaches an astonishing 50,000!
And not only that, in order to deal with the Longyan Army's tanks, Old Prime Minister Peter spared no effort to install huge artillery on the city wall that only the Dreadnought-class battleships could possess.
This is the most powerful weapon currently used by Britain!
Old Pete was completely prepared. Before the Long Yan Army began to attack the North and South Fortresses, he built a moat around Philadelphia.
It is hundreds of meters wide. Such a wide river has only one purpose, to block the attack of Long Yanjun!
…
The fall of the two fortresses and the major victory did not make them lose their rationality.
"Tanks can't cross the moat, so we have to fight for the bridge."
