In the days that followed, the stone bear lived in Norfolk.
He even sent people to take over his family, and all the affairs of going to Beijing were presided over by Jorah krulu.
Although Shangjing is located inland and the center of the continent, it is far away from the coastline. Now, the British have decided to give up the thirteen colonies. Although the Allied forces of France, Spain and the Netherlands are fighting with the British in the Atlantic Ocean beyond the Strait of gibraltarian, they are different from the British who have sent almost all their fleets to gibraltarian. Both the French and the Spaniards have a lot to spare.
Britain in this era is far from the sun never setting Empire decades later. Now Britain has only found many colonies, but it has not yet begun to plunder the resources of many colonies. The country's financial resources are not enough to support it to deal with the coalition forces of three countries at the same time.
The British can only do their best, while the French and Spanish can open up a second battlefield, that is, the new continent of North America.
The French wanted to recapture New France, while the Spaniards wanted to continue to expand their colonial territory in North America.
Anyway, everything is for the sake of interests. In the face of huge interests, there is no need for such things as face to exist.
Because the main fleet of the British were tied up in gibraltarian, the French and Spanish warships and merchant ships could gallop in the Atlantic without any scruple.
This situation made the stone bear realize that the war of independence should be coming to an end.
Although there were still a large number of British troops in the new North American continent at this time, their supplies were not much. On the other hand, with the support of France and the west, the grand army can now overwhelm the British army.
In this case, the stone bear is helpless.
In fact, it's hard to fight such a war. The whole decade of war has not only consumed a lot of human, material and financial resources of the British people, but also the army can't support it.
No one, no money, no food, who can fight this war? They're not robots. Not to mention that even robots need to be charged for maintenance
The most important thing is that after ten years of long war, both the British and the army are very tired of this war.
Under such circumstances, even if the stone bear alone undertakes the supplies of both sides, it is impossible for the war weary soldiers to fight again.
In other words, if nothing happens, the war should be over soon. Perhaps this time next year, the war, which has killed more than 100000 people, will end with a single contract.
In the original historical time and space, the war of independence caused a total of about 70000 casualties of the British army and the great army. But in this time and space, because of the stone bear, the war of independence not only lasted a long time, but also the casualties of both sides were more than 30000 more than in the original historical time and space!
The war had brought down the British and almost drained the army.
So, by this time, the war has come to an end.
It was for this reason that the stone bear decided to stay in Norfolk for a long time.
Because once the war is over, the independence of the United States will be recognized by the European powers, and then the United States will appear.
Stone bear is absolutely impossible to allow this to happen! This is the territory of Yanhuang tribe. The whole North American continent and even Central America will be the territory of Yanhuang tribe.
Why do you Europeans occupy my territory!
If you Europeans just want to live here, I welcome you. But if you want to build a country here, have you asked Laozi's opinion?
Therefore, as long as the European powers dare to recognize the independence of the United States, it is time for the Yanhuang tribe to take action.
Of course, before that, Yanhuang tribe must show their attitude and prepare for the coming war.
Therefore, as the chief of the tribe, as the spiritual leader of the tribe, stone bear must be at the forefront at this time!
1785 is destined to be an extraordinary year.
And the fact also confirmed the stone bear's conjecture.
After cutting off supplies from home, the British army in North America withered immediately. Instead of taking the initiative, they retreated to the five port fortresses of New York, Yorktown, Jamestown, Charleston and Savannah. Even Philadelphia, which had been occupied for eight years, was abandoned by the British.
Now what the British want to do most is to wait for the ships from home, and then transport them back to home safely.
Instead of taking the initiative to attack, the British Army gave up a large number of towns that they had occupied before, so the mainland opera became rampant immediately. They quickly occupied the towns that the British army had abandoned, and then concentrated the main force, instead, they surrounded the five port cities that the British army had retreated from.
Of course, if you want the army to take the initiative to attack these five port cities, they will not dare.
For this reason, the army is at the end of its tether. They have no power to fight for cities. They can only trap these British troops and wait for the British ships to come and take them away, so that they can occupy the five port cities without any blood.
Under such circumstances, the stone bear sat in Norfolk and watched the development of the situation.
On July 21, 1785, the main fleet of the Royal Navy broke through the blockade of the combined fleet of France, the West and the Netherlands for the fifth time, and once again successfully sent supplies to the fort of gibraltarian. Subsequently, the kingdom of Spain announced its withdrawal from the six-year-old offensive and defensive battle of the fort of gibraltarian.
This means that the Spaniards are no longer able to capture the fort of gibraltarian.
Subsequently, the French Dutch joint fleet announced the dissolution of the remaining warships back home, each to find their mother.
In this time and space, the intensity of the offensive and defensive war of the fort of gibraltarian, which lasted for nearly six years, is far greater than that of the original historical time and space, which lasted only three years and seven months. The four countries participating in the war have consumed almost all of them in this war, and they can no longer insist on it.
Because of the dissolution of the French Dutch joint fleet, the main fleet of the Royal Navy has been released. After emergency maintenance, some lightly damaged warships immediately set foot on the route to North America.
On September 19, 1785, the British abandoned the southernmost port city of Savannah. Twelve British armed merchant ships came to Savannah under the protection of six class III windsurfing battleships, and took 7200 British soldiers stationed in Savannah.
At the end of November of the same year, another group of armed merchant ships, under the protection of warships, took over 5800 British soldiers stationed in Charleston, and Charleston was taken over by the army.
On March 22, 1786, the British Army abandoned New York. The 27000 British soldiers stationed in New York were picked up by local ships in three batches
