Report

"Brothers, let's move forward. When we reach the town in front, I will ask the local officials to provide you with horses. "The American official stood on the side of the road and shouted at the Hessian mercenaries while panting. Only a few of the Hessian mercenaries knew English, so the shouting didn't get any response from the soldiers with rifles on their backs.

Of course, the American official didn't really take it seriously. His weary posture was enough to show how perfunctory his attitude was. William? Hessian had participated in operations with the mercenaries in British-ruled Egypt, so the American accent sounded funny to him and made him even more unhappy.

"Hey! Don't you think that American looks like a slave trader? " William Hessian asked the surveyor walking beside him.

The surveyor was slightly abnormal when he saw the tornado, but he had already returned to normal. Listen to William? After Hessian finished speaking, he looked at the American official who was shouting at the top of his lungs to encourage the troops to move. The surveyor laughed. "I think the slave trader is more reliable than him. If there really are horses, this guy should lead a small team to the front and bring the horses back first. Then we can talk about the nonsense about there being more horses. "

William? Hessian couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. This American official was very unreliable in the eyes of the Hessian mercenaries. However, this official was quite diligent. After the storm passed, the Hessian mercenaries didn't want to move forward and requested to go back the way they came. Apart from strongly objecting, this official actually took the trouble to personally lead the team and walked at the front. If this official dared to make any request for the Hessian mercenaries to help him, the mercenaries' only response would probably be to immediately turn back.

It wasn't easy to stop talking. The surveyor asked, "Do you think that the people who fell from the sky are really Chinese?"

Not waiting for William? As Hessian spoke, the brothers beside him couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Ha! That official insisted that the Chinese bring women when they go to war. Do you believe it? And the ratio is about one to one. "

Hearing this, the mercenaries all laughed. They could understand the American official lying through his teeth. However, it was a bit too much to insult the intelligence of others. It wasn't that the mercenaries didn't understand military affairs. Any army with combat power wouldn't have so many women. William? Hazen laughed. "Why did the Americans kill so many Native Americans? They didn't even let go of men, women, old or young. "

There were corpses of all ages falling from the sky. Judging from the freshness of the corpses, they had been killed in the last two to three days. The Hessian Mercenaries were known for their outstanding marksmanship, but they were also proficient in hand-to-hand combat. After looking at the broken parts of the limbs, these people confirmed that many of the Native Americans had been dismembered with knives, which meant that they had been cut into pieces and inserted into sharpened wooden sticks. Logically speaking, it should be used as a warning to others. Overall, the Americans were just like what the little yellow girls had said. The Americans were systematically and purposefully slaughtering the Native Americans.

"Recently, the Chinese have been trying to get the European countries to recognize the Indian Country. The Americans probably think that after killing all the Indians, the Chinese will lose their excuse."

"Excuse? If killing all the natives is an excuse, then the Chinese killing all the Americans is also a good excuse. " Hessian intervened, and the people who answered began to argue among themselves.

"If the United States is willing to support some local Native Americans and let these Native Americans compete with China for Native American orthodoxy, the European countries will definitely agree. At that time, the Chinese's excuse will be useless. But now that the United States is killing so much that the Native Americans have run to China's flag, it will be useless for the United States to blame China for the massacre. If the Chinese are bastards, then the United States is probably a bastard. It's just a matter of first come, first served. "A ten-man captain intervened in the discussion. William? Hessian listened to his words very seriously. Because this ten-man captain was one of the two cultured fellows who had once aspired to be a geographer, but later had to look forward to becoming a traveler. These two fellows' opinions on the matter were actually very valuable.

"What does this have to do with us?" The surveyor asked a very practical question.

The ten-man captain who dreamed of becoming a traveler replied, "If China only wants to defeat the United States and make the United States cede territory and pay reparations, then we have a lot of things to do. There will be many opportunities for us to make money. If the Chinese want to learn from the American way of treating the Native Americans, to rope in the Native Americans and destroy the Americans in North America. Then we'd better take care of our own lives and retreat as soon as possible. "

William? Hessian's mood was originally relatively relaxed, but after hearing this, his mood suddenly became heavy. When he was in Egypt, he had participated in the battle with the Mahdi army. Those battles were very cruel, and if they lost the battle with the Mahdi army, the British forces would probably only be left with a dead end. It was the same for the Mahdi army. The British madly slaughtered the Mahdi army on the battlefield, and at other times, they also madly slaughtered the Mahdi army. In order to obtain victory, everyone was committed to eliminating the enemy's effective forces.

Participating in such a war was like entering hell. There was no mercy, no relaxation. Every day, everyone had to be in the most intense killing, and all emotions that had nothing to do with killing would be forcibly expelled. As a mercenary of Hessian, William? Hessian felt that it was unbearable. Thinking of this, William? Hessian suddenly felt a sense of melancholy. He asked, "Hey, do you think there will be a day when the war will stop?"

"Stop the war? What do you mean? "The surveyor asked.

The ten-man captain laughed and said, "The war has never stopped. At most, one or a few countries will not fight, but the war has never stopped."

"Is it that bad?" William? Hessian was very puzzled by the ten-man captain's words.

The ten-man captain laughed and said, "The Hessian mercenaries were founded in 1776. After the American War of Independence, we went to England in 1798 to kill the rebellious Irish. During the Napoleonic Wars, we were stationed in England and helped England defend their homeland. After the Napoleonic Wars, we were organized into the Hanoverian army. After that, we appeared in various wars, and it was only after the unification of Germany that there was a large-scale reorganization. It has been more than a hundred years. Since the establishment of the Hessian mercenaries, we have not been idle. According to the current situation, we can probably still be active for another hundred years. "

After listening to the history of the Hessian mercenaries for the past hundred years, as well as the ten-man captain's prediction for the next hundred years, William? Hessian said in despair, "Can't we fight a decisive war and clean up all the conflicts in one go?"

The ten-man captain did not think that William? Hessian would actually raise such a point of view. He used his hand to tidy up the beard on his chin. After walking for a while, he said, "Hmm … this is also a solution. But it will have to be a war that all the countries in the world will participate in. Only when all the countries in the world participate in such a war, and only when the blood of almost all the countries in the world is spilled in the war, will everyone be able to repent. "

After listening to the ten-man captain, William? Hessian only felt a little better. In any case, there was finally hope for world peace. Unexpectedly, the ten-man captain immediately added, "It won't work if the Americans do it this way. Actually, I think that instead of killing the Native Americans, it would be better for the Americans to obediently give up their land and ask for peace. If the war continues like this, when both sides have no mercy, I think it is very likely that all the Americans will die. "

Not waiting for William? As Hessian spoke, the mercenary leader, who had been listening for a while, interrupted, "Alright, don't say such discouraging words. If the Americans can't hold on, then we won't be able to make money, right? "

After hearing this, the ten-man captain could not help but laugh a few times. "If the Americans give us dollars, then we definitely won't be able to make money. Just like this, they will keep losing battles and losing land. Dollars will definitely become worthless. After all, their gold mines are all around the West Coast and the Rocky Mountains. Now, those places have all fallen into the hands of China. Without gold and silver, dollars are just worthless paper! "

Just like that, the troops moved forward. Although they were getting more and more disappointed with their future income and safety, they still had to move forward. After all, the mercenary group had already received a deposit from the current German Emperor, William II, and this deposit was also distributed to the mercenaries. Mercenaries needed money, and this money had long been spent. If not for this, the mercenary leader would not have asked the young Germans who wanted to take a boat back to Europe for five pounds per person. Everyone was really in need of money.

Everyone moved forward, moving forward. They rested at night and continued at dawn. They finally arrived at their destination in the morning. Then, these Hessian mercenaries looked at the dumbfounded American official with disdain. The reason why the official was dumbfounded was because the prosperous town next to the train station in his memory had now been reduced to ruins. Almost all the houses had been damaged, especially the roofs. There was not a single intact roof.

As for the victims of the disaster in the town, they were still working hard to repair their houses. This formed a strange combination with the dilapidated town.

"Looks like this place was hit by a tornado." The surveyor's tone had a hint of schadenfreude, as well as a strong sense of satisfaction after getting what he wanted.

"Captain, if there are no horses and vehicles here. We should hurry back. A lot of our luggage and equipment are near those big pits, "the decurion said to the leader.

The leader didn't seem to have any fighting spirit. Based on what he had seen and heard on this trip, as well as the results of what he had seen and heard, the leader felt that coming to North America to fight was a mistake. Not to mention those fierce Chinese troops, the Hessian mercenaries, who had more than a hundred years of history, looked down on the military level of the American Army.

At this moment, the surveyor first frowned and looked at the sky. Then, he relaxed his brows and raised his binoculars to look at the sky. This action made the Hessian mercenaries feel that something was wrong. Many of them raised their binoculars to look at the sky. In history, the Hessian mercenaries were also called 'hunters', or snipers. These people had very good eyesight.
