Now the order and security of the CRI people in the South and the bowatan people in the East have been taken over by the soldiers sent by the Cherokee royal court, and the soldiers of the explosive bear brigade have all returned.
Therefore, this western expedition can be regarded as a collective expedition of the explosive bear brigade.
The reason why we let the explosive bear brigade March to the west is that the stone bear still has a bigger purpose.
The chekasa people are just scabies to the explosive bear brigade now. Although the chekasa people can entangle with the Cherokee people for so long, it doesn't mean that the Cherokee people can't take over this tribe.
Although there is a large swamp between the chekasa and the Cherokee, the more important reason is that the Cherokee want the chekasa to be a buffer zone for the Missourians, Arkansas, Kentucky and Mississippi farther west.
Although these Indian tribes, living on both sides of the middle reaches of the river, are not as powerful as the Cherokee and the Kerry individually, they are still very terrible if they unite.
The most important thing is that most of these tribes are friendly with the French, and although they also fight each other, once there are outsiders, they often unite. This is the most troublesome thing.
Just like the attack of the Kentucky Missouri Coalition on the chekasa (PS: Missouri was written as Mississippian, please forgive me), it directly reflects the relationship between the four tribes.
The reason why the French built fortress okron in okron was to make friends with these four Indian tribes.
If you look at the map, with Fort okron as the center, Kentucky people live in the northeast, Missouri people live in the northwest, Arkansas people live in the southwest, and Mississippi people live in the south.
In fact, Kentucky used to be a member of the Iroquois League. In Iroquois, the name of Kentucky is "land stained with blood". This area is located on the west side of Appalachia, guarding the North-South passage. Since ancient times, it has been the place where the major Indian tribes fought with each other. There have been many Fierce wars here, so this area has the name.
The Iroquois alliance was a very powerful tribal alliance hundreds of years ago. It is also a tribe in the Iroquois alliance that controls this area. This tribe has lived here for a long time, and its name in Iroquois language is Kentucky.
Although the scale of this tribe is not large, it is definitely a very fierce tribe.
As for the Missourians, the name comes from the Missouri River. In Algonquin language, the Missouri River is called the "river of mud", and the Indian tribes living in this area are collectively referred to as the Missourians.
The name of the Arkansas people in the southwest of okron Fort comes from the powerful Sioux people in the north. The powerful Sioux people live in the upper reaches of the river, that is, the Mississippi River. In the eyes of the powerful Sioux people, the tribes living in the lower reaches of the river are very docile. The name Arkansas in the Sioux language means "the tribe where the south wind blows.".
In other words, in the eyes of the Sioux, Arkansas are weak chickens
As for the Mississippi people, needless to say, they come from the Mississippi River.
These four tribes occupied the East and west sides of the middle reaches of the Mississippi River. Together with the chekasa who were later driven by the Cherokees to the vicinity of the Mihe River, there were five tribes living in this large area.
This time, the stone bear plans to take all the five tribes, including the two military fortresses built by the French near St. Louis and Memphis. As for fortress okron, of course, the stone bear did not intend to let it go.
He now knows that when the Xiaohe tribe was attacked, it was because okron fortress issued a reward order. As a result, Yuchi people attacked the Xiaohe tribe because of greed.
Therefore, okron fortress is the culprit of Baiyun Xiaoyu's death!
Although Kentucky, Missouri, Arkansas, Mississippi, and chekasa have close ties with the French, the stone bear is not afraid of them. Originally, the stone bear did not intend to let go of these five tribes in this western expedition. It would be better if they could gather together.
Three hundred grenades and twenty 55mm mortars are starving!
Because of the sudden improvement of the weather, even if there were several light rains in February, the temperature did not decrease much. On the contrary, because of these light rains, the ice and snow on the ground melted a lot.
So, when the end of February came, a total of 5100 people of the explosive bear brigade went out!
If the ransom of major Felisa and the 103 Spanish soldiers, that is, the 500 horses, arrives, it doesn't matter. Anyway, there is no one in the tribe. Let the Spanish wait.
Compared with this deal, it is more important to win the five tribes near the West River ahead of time.
But this season, to get to the chekasa territory from the high tree tribe, you have to go north of the Everglades.
That is to say, starting from the gaoshu tribe, and then following the path to the south of the Great South fork to bypass the Great South Fork, we first arrive at waier tribe. After two days of trimming by waier tribe, we can go all the way west along the Keni River and through the hilly area in the north of the Everglades to reach the boundary between the chekasa people and the Cherokee people, which is near Nashville, the music capital of later generations.
Compared with the waterway, this road is not only short, but also easier to walk. After all, this is already the hinterland of the Cherokee people. The communication between different tribes makes the Great South Fork more roads.
The so-called big south fork is the mountain area to the north of Oak Ridge. The stone bear in this area is also familiar. The long hair cattle tribe where this pair of body used to be is located on the south edge of Da Nancha.
Along the path in the mountain, the bear brigade quickly bypassed the big South Fork from the south of the big South Fork and arrived near the later crosswell, where the crooked ear tribe of jorakrulu was located.
Jorah krulu is not in the crooked ear tribe now. He is in the white city alliance and a group of tribal leaders of the white city alliance to hand over the affairs of the Cree and the bowatan.
Although he can catch up with the western expedition this time, it is estimated that he will be in the late stage of the western expedition. However, it doesn't matter. Jorah krulu is mainly engaged in internal affairs now. Although he used to be the top leader of the red city alliance, he has now made a gorgeous turn and directly turned into the top leader of the white city alliance.
It is estimated that after the western expedition, this guy will become the supreme leader of the White City Alliance in charge of peace.
Who let this guy not fight well, but he really has a way of doing internal affairs.
The explosive bear brigade spent two days in waier tribe, and then along the Keni River Valley all the way to the west, the vanguard troops built bridges in the face of water, which ensured the speed of the rear troops.
In a few days, the bear brigade arrived near Nashville along the road opened up by the vanguards.
Later, this city is the second largest city and capital of Tennessee, and also the most famous country music capital in the United States. But in this era, Nashville is just a small French residence, in which only more than 100 French colonists live here
