Chapter 943： Colonization is always bloody

Albert wrote a report on the outstanding performance of Long Island mules when cultivating the land, and sent the boat back to the local area. And, there is a strong demand to expand the scale of mule reproduction. After all, mules are really easy to use from a service perspective.

In addition, he also played the war horse application report. Seeing that Mo Xigan had run a long way, he could no longer catch up after walking on foot. Therefore, the horses need to pursue. In the North American jungle, it is the best choice to chase the Moxigan, a medium-sized Eastern European Mongolian horse.

Why? Because there are dense branches in the North American jungle, there are always long, crooked branches. If it is a tall horse of Western Europe, riding on a horse, it is easier to hit those long crooked branches. At the same time, the feeding costs of Western European Malaysian horses are also high, and their endurance is not good. In general, the Eastern European Mongolian horses that are resistant to rough feeding and endurance are suitable for this kind of "thousands of miles" pursuit.

However, Marin attaches great importance to the matter of landing. Therefore, Albert needs to report the application. Moreover, these batches of horses must be castrated. Otherwise, if it happened accidentally and was seized by the indigenous people, it would be troublesome.

In addition to the spring cultivation in the mainland and New York, Twin Islands and Cape Breton Island, the newly opened Savannah colony also began spring cultivation. Moreover, Marin attaches great importance to the spring cultivation of Savannah. Because the crops sown here are a few things that Marin values ​​very much—oil tung, sumac, Phyllostachys pubescens, and upland cotton varieties from Mexico.

Of course, half the seeds of the tung tree, sumac and bamboo are planted here. As for the other half, it was sent to the Pampas of Argentina in the southern hemisphere.

It's just that because of the distance, the boat to Pampas Prairie is estimated to be still on the coast of Brazil in South America, and has not yet reached Pampas Prairie. I don't know if they can keep up with the cultivation of winter wheat.

The southern hemisphere and the northern hemisphere have opposite seasons. The northern hemisphere is early spring in March, while the southern hemisphere is still the early autumn season where autumn tigers are raging. In April, in the southern hemisphere, it is the best autumn season. As for May, it is equivalent to November in the northern hemisphere. And November is the best season for winter wheat. Therefore, the fleet heading to Pampas Prairie, as long as it arrived in April and planted winter wheat in May, was considered to have completed the mission.

The Savannah side is closer to the mainland of Beihai. Therefore, the fleet carrying seeds here arrived in February. In March, Marin sent 500 Cossacks with war horses and mares to protect the growth of the precious tung trees, lacquer trees, Phyllostachys pubescens and upland cotton in the Savannah colony.

At the same time, Marin also split thousands of English immigrants from the Cape Breton Island colony and transported them to the Savannah grasslands, where he was responsible for planting oil tung, lacquer trees, bamboo and cotton.

Marin's worries were indeed right. The Crick tribe that sold the Savannah Steppe to Korwock was disturbed after seeing Marin sending thousands of immigrants.

Because there are only 500 people in the tribe that sells land. Only about 180 people can fight. Suddenly, when the Creek tribe saw thousands of white men pouring into the previously sold grassland, they were immediately scared. Then they began to repent and tried to drive out immigrants ...

However, at this time, they could not help. Because the 500 Cossacks sent by Marin arrived ...

At the beginning, Korwok took a tolerant attitude and did not want to turn his face with the other party. However, the local Creek Indians, who have no rules, are determined to drive out immigrants. They even killed an English immigrant with a javelin.

It happened that the 500 Cossacks who had just arrived in Savannah Grassland had come to rest after a few days of rest. So, Kwalker immediately turned his face ...

An extremely fierce conflict broke out between the two sides. In order to wipe out the other party, the leading Cossack leader Gerbin (one of the leaders of the 10 German Cossack villages) suggested that the governor Kovork attract the other party to the grassland to fight. As for the Cossack cavalry, they didn't show up at the beginning, but were hidden in the woods to the east.

This is so because Gerbin knew that if he fought in the jungle, Cossacks who were not familiar with the terrain might not be able to catch up with the native Indians who were familiar with the environment. But if they arrived on the grassland, they would give Cossack the food ...

According to this plan, Governor Korwock first took all the immigrants and guards back to a temporary rammed adobe wall in the middle of Savannah Grassland, relying on the wall to defend the opponent's attack.

Indian Natives did not have much wisdom. They saw thousands of white people take the initiative to retreat, and thought they were frightened by their "strong" combat effectiveness. Then, 180 warriors of the tribe came out of the nest, walked out of the forest to the west, came outside the large courtyard where thousands of immigrants lived temporarily, and tried to capture this mud rammed walled courtyard ...

Then, they have a cup ...

Seeing that the Creek warriors were far away from the forest, after putting down the telescope, Gelbin really ordered the 500 Cossack cavalry to come out of the nest, and charged the 180 Creek warriors from behind ...

In the face of the rolling 500 Cossack cavalry, the creek warriors who had never been in contact with the cavalry were frightened. In particular, the majestic momentum of the 500 cavalry charge made 180 Creek fighters feel suffocated and frightened. Then, they start running away in fright ...

However, on the grassland, who can run the cavalry? Even though the Indian natives Liu Xiang and Cybert, under the pursuit of the Cossacks, also died under the sabers of the Cossacks ...

The 100 German Cossack boys under Gerbin were probably the first to kill and felt very uncomfortable. Many people vomited on the spot and lost the idea of ​​chasing the enemy. If you encounter enemy cavalry with comparable combat power, these 100 people can easily collapse.

But the other 400 genuine Zaporozhye Cossacks are all scum. They had no compassion for the Native Indian Creek natives who fled, and even were extremely excited when they hacked their opponents. Gerbin and his 100 German Cossacks only chopped 37 Indian Creek warriors, and the remaining 143 were all killed by genuine Zaporozhye Cossacks. It is different from the uncomfortableness of the young German Cossacks ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Those old fritters Zaporozhye Cossacks not only killed the Native American warriors, but also cut off their heads and tied them around their waists Simply waved with a string in his hands to show off ... Then, the German boys under Gerbin vomited again ...

But anyway, Gerbin and his cossacks have another task to complete-killing all the people in the Creek village ...

This was specifically requested by Marin, why? Because the creek tribes are not independent, and there are some connections with each other. Marin asked Tuguang to be a tribe. In fact, he was afraid that the tribe would escape to other Creek tribes and encourage those Creek tribes to attack the colony ...

However, after seeing the young men spit out one after another, Gerbin had to let the young men trim for several hours. In the afternoon, I entered the forest and went to the Creek village ...

However, they still came a little late. In the village, the elders responsible for staying left probably guessed the result of the defeat, and had hurriedly ran away with a part of the capable women. All left in the village are old, weak women and children who can't run ...

Faced with the trembling old and weak women and children, Gerbin and the German Cossack guys were a little bit unable to fight. However, the Zaporozhye Cossacks, who were accustomed to robbers, had great experience in dealing with them-they killed those useless old men and half-old boys who were over the wheel height, leaving only women (including half-big girls) And children shorter than the wheels.

Although he felt uncomfortable, Gerbin knew that as a Cossack, he had to adapt to this inhumane approach. Even, in the future to learn to do so. Because, before he came to the Savannah colony, Marin once told him-the colony was always **** ...
