Chapter 428

Zachary Taylor did not know that his two little beasts had become mascots of his own troops, with their own deterrent effect.

When fighting with the Mexican army, Zachary Taylor found that many Mexican soldiers were demoralized, and even there were many deserters in every battle. I didn't know that Victor and James had been passed on as the devil Zachary Taylor by the Mexican soldiers. I thought they were shocked by their previous achievements, and I was proud of them.

But soon, he couldn't be happy.

They were encircled by the Mexican army!

Antonio Lopez de Santa Ana, President and commander in chief of Mexico, was informed that most of Zachary Taylor's soldiers and materials had been removed and his forces weakened. He immediately led all his forces to attack Zachary Taylor with a view to killing his troops.

Victor and James, on the other hand, were opposite to Zachary Taylor. They were all excited when they heard the news of the enemy's attack. In the past two months, they had not fought a single battle, and were waiting for the Mexican troops to leave on the outskirts of Monterey.

Other soldiers enjoyed the rare time of stability, while victor and James felt rusty all over, watching the evacuation, and fewer Mexican soldiers felt as if they were scratching with their claws.

The battle during this period has greatly improved the strength of the two men. They are immersed in the pleasure of rapid improvement of their strength, but they are interrupted by Zachary Taylor. It's no wonder that the two men don't give face to the commander of the major general, old Taylor, but stare at him with white eyes whenever they meet.

At this time, Zachary Taylor and his troops are stationed in Buena Vista, in northern Mexico.

Knowing the attack of the Mexican army, Zachary Taylor immediately ordered the soldiers to prepare for the battle and immediately began to strengthen the fortification.

After Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna arrived in Buena Vista, he didn't rush to attack. The rumour that Zachary Taylor had devil soldiers under his command still had a certain impact on him, so he didn't act rashly, but first sent a small group of troops to test Zachary Taylor's troops.

But none of his successive troops came back alive.

Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna could not help being more cautious. Obviously, he had far more soldiers than Zachary Taylor, but he did not launch a total of them. He had been repeatedly testing.

However, Zachary Taylor knew that his forces were far less than the enemy's, and he would lose a lot if he started directly. He didn't rush to launch a counterattack. Instead, he asked victor and James to lead the team to deal with the exploratory attack of Mexico, and at the same time, he took the time to continue to build and strengthen the fortifications, adjust the defense plan, and try to increase the assurance of winning.

After a long period of trial, Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna's unease not only did not abate, but became more and more intense.

Although most of the exploratory attacks ended in the total annihilation of the Mexican army, many soldiers survived and fled back to the Mexican barracks in such a long time.

From their words, Antonio Lopez de Santa Ana heard the same description.

Devil, powerful, fearless, can't kill!

However, even if confirmed the unease in his heart, Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna had to choose to continue.

Up to now, no matter the other party is really a devil or for any other reason, this battle can't be dragged on any longer!

Finally, on February 22, 1847, the Mexican army launched an all-round attack and the two sides launched a decisive battle, which culminated in the US Mexico war.

At this time, the Mexican army supported 20000 troops, while Zachary Taylor's troops were only 4700, and the battle lasted for two full days.

Mexico's military has many potential, occupying an absolute advantage in military strength, while Zachary Taylor's side, relying on perfect fortifications and defensive advantages, has resisted the fierce attack of the Mexican army.

After two days of fighting, both sides were exhausted. In the end, the morale was low, and it continued to be low under Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna's oil feeding tactics. Finally, the Mexican army took the lead in not holding on, and more and more deserters were escaping, and the balance of victory began to tilt.

Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna saw that the defeat had been decided and he was unable to return to the sky. He had to give up fighting and retreat quickly after dark, which made Zachary Taylor win the final victory of the battle.

In this battle, 746 Americans were killed and more than 2000 were lost by the Mexican army, of which hundreds died in the hands of Victor and James!

When the fighting ended and the Mexican army retreated, their clothes had already become rags, full of bullet holes and damages.

Rao is both physically superior and resilient. After two days of fierce fighting, they are also tired and out of breath. They are soaked in sweat.

Unlike other soldiers, who also attack alternately, soldiers who are too tired can rest in their positions for a while, recover their physical strength, and don't need to think about sleeping.However, Victor and James did not stop fighting from the beginning to the end.

That is to say, they have a special physique. Their strong self-healing ability brings about super recovery speed and infinite physical strength. Otherwise, they would have been exhausted in this fierce battle if they were not killed by bullets.

However, it's worth it to be so tired. Only these two days of fighting, the strength of the two men can be improved to match the fighting in the previous months, which shows the intensity of the fight.

The two men's eyes towards Zachary Taylor are not as angry as before, but a little more gentle.

Mr. Chen Mo is right. You don't have to be afraid of not fighting with this kid. This fight is just too exciting!

Feeling the change in the eyes of Victor and James when they looked at him, Zachary Taylor felt helpless. These two crazy little guys!

With this decisive victory, Zachary Taylor became the "greatest hero" in the US Mexico war. In recognition of his achievements, Congress awarded him a gold medal.

In this regard, the US Mexico war has come to an end.

General Winfield Scott led his troops to attack Mexico City by sea, and successfully broke through the city wall, attacked Mexico City, and controlled the whole city for military control.

Then, under the pressure of the U.S. military, Antonio Lopez de Santa Ana, the Mexican President defeated and fled by Zachary Taylor, was removed from office. On November 11, 1847, Anjou was elected interim president of Mexico, and the two sides were ready for peace talks.
