Chapter 549 (2/2)
Bighorn sheep also said, ”yes, the chief is right. At this time, it's too late for the British to win over us. They absolutely dare not turn against us. Because the British know very well that if we join the Americans, they will lose 100% of their colonies here, and it is uncertain how much their troops will be able to withdraw. ”
”Hoo...” bone spear took a breath, ”then I'm relieved!”
”Bone spear, you can rest assured, but you can't relax.” Stone bear patted the strong man who was seven or eight years older than himself, ”the wind from the north is not so cold, and the snow on the ground is slowly melting. In another month or two, it is time for us to embark on the journey again. At that time, we have to face the Iroquois, and our soldiers need to completely conquer them. As a teacher of the second division, you have a heavy responsibility, so you can't relax. ”
Bone spear immediately raised his head and said, ”don't worry, boss. I'm good at leading soldiers to fight.”
The stone bear and the bighorn sheep burst out laughing.
After laughing, bighorn sheep pulled out the map knowingly. The recuperation in recent years has not only greatly improved the strength of the whole tribe, but also made great progress in military affairs. For example, although this kind of large-scale military map can't be accurate to several meters, it can be accurate to two or three hundred meters.
This kind of accurate map is drawn by professional cartographers trained in recent years in combination with hot-air balloons and local aborigines. The accuracy is still very good.
After all, there is no target that needs accurate bombing at this time. Even if the division artillery group fires in volley, there are still hot-air balloon observers in the sky.
Therefore, this kind of large-scale military map is mainly used by the high-level personnel of the stormy bear army. It is essential for the high-level personnel of the stormy bear army to formulate tactics.
The huge map was hung on the wall. The stone bear pointed to the area where the second division was currently stationed, about two kilometers south of the Detroit fort, and said, ”the division headquarters of the second division are stationed here, surely because this section of the river is the narrowest, isn't it?”
Bone spear nodded and said, ”yes, this is the narrowest section of the Detroit River. It's the best place to build a floating bridge here. And it's close enough to Detroit fortress. Our officers and men can go to the British to scare them when they have nothing to do
Several people laughed again.
It's ridiculous to think about that scene - the British people who used to be swaggering around the fort in Detroit looked like they were above the Indians of other tribes. As a result, after the soldiers of the bear army came, they immediately became quails
After laughing, stone bear continued to point to the map and said: ”when the army attacks, we need to leave two or three regiments here to stay. We need to keep vigilance and pressure on the British. The specific number of people to stay, you two will discuss later. The rest of the 2nd Division will start from Fort Detroit, cross the Detroit River and the St. Clair River to the north, and attack the Iroquois nest eastward along the land between Lake Ontario and Lake Erie. Well, it's worth noting that when you arrive at the Niagara River, you should choose the place to build the pontoon. There is a huge waterfall and the terrain is very dangerous, so I suggest you build the pontoon at the upstream estuary of the Niagara River. As for the mixed eighth division, it will attack eastward along the South Bank of Lake Erie and cooperate with you in the south. This attack on the Iroquois, your second division and mixed eighth division are the main force! ”
Bone spear waved his fist excitedly.
