"Your Majesty, Prime Minister, I've been waiting for you!"
General William greeted old Prime Minister Pitt with two steps and three steps, and was extremely flattering.
The most powerful person in Britain is the old Prime Minister Peter in front of him. The British parliamentary system is dominated by old Pitt.
George III, the king of Britain, had long been restricted in his power.
Although General William was very dissatisfied with Old Pitt's withdrawal, even if he lost this war, he was defeated!
The Overseer will not be held responsible in the slightest.
All responsibility will fall on him, the commander-in-chief of Britain.
And Sheldon, the governor of New England.
Old Pete looked at General William expressionlessly and said in a deep voice: "Why don't you see Sheldon coming? What is he doing!"
General William's expression changed slightly.
Since the fall of Philadelphia and New York City and the withdrawal of the British troops, they have basically lost contact with their base camp in Quebec.
And now Quebec is still facing maritime dangers from the Longyan Army.
Not to mention that he couldn't get away. Even if he did, Sheldon wouldn't come to this place.
Philadelphia and New York City were abandoned, but Quebec was actually the most seriously injured!
Quebec is located just north of New York City. Without New York City, Quebec is like losing its lips and teeth, and no longer has any certain point of protection!
If the Continental Congress army continued to move north, the fall of Quebec would mean that all British colonies in the Americas would completely become the power of the Continental Congress.
It also represents the complete destruction of New England, the founding of Britain in America.
The first person to be impacted was Sheldon, the Governor of New England!
And he had no way to choose to escape like General William and Old Pitt. He had no way to escape.
It's already a bit ridiculous for Old Pete to ask about Sheldon's whereabouts now.
General William smiled and said, "Your Majesty, Prime Minister, you're fine. How will you execute the next battle plan?"
Old Pete did not delve into it, but looked at the bird pictures hanging on the wall.
"Tell me your plan."
General William came to the bird map, gestured and said: "We are going to build a defense line on the front."
"The terrain of York Town has a small loophole in the south. The Dragon Flame Army will never be able to attack other places!"
"And for us..."
Old Pete couldn't listen anymore and directly interrupted General William. He came to the map and pointed at the jungle and river and said in a deep voice: "Why is this place not fortified?"
"Do you think the Longyan Army won't attack?"
"The Dragon Flame Army is not as weak as you think!"
"This will be the focus of the enemy's attack, and there must be enough troops to ensure the security here."
General William was slightly startled when he heard this. After a while, the entire bird map was filled with marks from the other party.
"These are the directions in which the enemy may launch an attack!"
"You must send heavy troops to defend!"
Old Pete said seriously.
His expression didn't look like he was watching a joke. It was General William's turn to be dumbfounded. After just a circle, there was no place that was not the focus of the Long Yan Army's attack.
If arranged according to this combat plan, their 50,000 troops may not even be enough.
"Your Majesty Prime Minister, I understand that you are setting up defenses along the river and the forest, but there is no need to focus on protection."
"It's simply not a place where the military can move through on a large scale."
"Even if the Dragon Flame Army attacks, it will only be on a small scale."
Hearing this, Old Pete became furious: "You have no idea how terrifying the Dragon Flame Army is!"
"Let me tell you that if we can defeat the Long Yan Army, it will definitely not be because of how strong our troops are."
"It's because Long Yanjun wants us to win!"
After experiencing the battle with Long Yanjun, Old Pete is still broken.
Not to mention that his troops tried to ambush the Longyan Army in the jungle and across the river.
But without exception, all failed.
The fighting capabilities of the Long Yan Army are so strong that no army can defeat them, no!
When General William saw this, he frowned and felt suspicious.
But faced with Old Pete's instructions, he still agreed.
"Your Majesty Prime Minister, your army?"
Old Pete's face suddenly turned black, remembering that when they retreated, there were still 30,000 troops in their force.
However, on the way back, they were attacked by Long Yan's army. In the end, only 10,000 people were left out of the 30,000 troops!
The remaining 20,000 men were either scattered or captured by the enemy.
He said angrily: "I have ten thousand soldiers at your disposal."
"Ten thousand soldiers..."
General William's body suddenly froze, and he trembled slightly.
The old Prime Minister Pete originally followed an army of 50,000 people, but now there are only 10,000 troops left!
This sounds absolutely outrageous!
Where the remaining 40,000 soldiers had gone, General William had already figured it out from the expression on Old Pitt's face.
He already knew where these went.
He originally thought that as long as he had Prime Minister Pete's army and stationed tens of thousands of troops in York Town, with such absolute force suppression, it would be absolutely impossible for the enemy to break through this town!
As for the maritime supply line they established, they would fight a war of attrition for one or two years, and then attack New York City again after Long Yan's army withdrew. This would definitely not be an illusion.
Sixty thousand troops, General William sighed, these troops are not small.
"Okay... Prime Minister."
When Old Pete turned around and was about to leave, he said in a trembling voice: "William, you may think that I am too afraid of the strength of the Longyan Army now."
"But if you saw the performance of the Longyan Army on the battlefield, you would be like me now. Their combat effectiveness has surpassed ours by a lot."
"Today's wars are no longer won by military strength. Once you see their steel monsters and their muskets that can fire without limit, you will understand what I mean."
General William was very disdainful when he heard this, even though he had received messages from other troops during previous battles.
But General William thought it was too much.
What kind of steel monster can directly crush the jungle twice, what kind of weapons can smash the city wall with one shot, and what kind of weapons that old Pete is talking about now have infinite firing.
It sounds like science fiction, not very realistic.
Their technical level in Britain is no longer inferior to that of Long Yan. Although there is still a gap, the gap is not so huge.
At this time, on the other side of the battlefield, in the camp of the Long Yan Army.
After the fall of Philadelphia and New York City, the two armies converged.
George was full of ambition and dressed himself up carefully. This was his first official meeting with the marshal of the Long Yan Army. Now he was also the commander of the American Front Army and their supreme commander.
"Martha, help me adjust my tie. Do you think I'm being gentlemanly enough?"
