Chapter 2877 Canaan Volunteers

Bannister Winthrop, you are so arrogant and arrogant, if you don't lose the battle, it's outrageous!

General Cornwallis became more and more enraged, and in a rage, he wrote a severely worded letter to the Governor, mercilessly pointing out the serious mistakes made by Bannister Winthrop on the battlefield.

After writing the letter, General Kang Huali calmed down. He read the letter again, but he dared not send it.

Finally, with a wry smile, he tore off the letter paper, picked up a pen and re-wrote a report on the Battle of the Bend, tried his best to embellish little Winthrop's command mistakes, and took the responsibility on himself, blaming himself for "failing to send troops in time." Supporting the frontline troops", "very ashamed"...

After the letter was sent, General Cornwallis estimated that the Governor-General also did not sleep well all night.

Early the next morning, General Cornwallis received a reply from Earl Winthrop.

In his letter, His Excellency the Governor comforted the old subordinates not to blame themselves. He already fully understood the ins and outs of the Battle of Delin River Bay. Frankly speaking, General Cornwallis was not responsible for the defeat in this battle. It was Bannister who underestimated the enemy, Earl I also feel that there is no way to teach my children, and I cannot absolve myself of the blame.

Next, His Excellency the Governor wrote in the letter that a transfer order had been issued to relieve Bannister of his command and order him to return to Leiden City to report on his duties immediately. If necessary, the military court will make a decision on his misconduct. Your Excellency the Governor will never interfere with the trial.

In addition, Earl Winthrop will also send Queen Huaia to lead 3,000 hill giant mercenaries, together with flesh and blood colossi to support the Cornwallis Corps, and assist him in attacking the rebel base camp, Delin Town.

After reading this reply, General Cornwallis was very relieved.

That's right, that's how decent people should do things!

Little Winthrop is still too immature, and he is crazy at a young age. This is a stinky problem that he is used to when he suffers too little. He really needs to learn from his father how to deal with people.

Transferring Little Winthrop, the second-generation official who did not listen to the command, and sending a powerful hill giant mercenary regiment, plus the siege weapon "Flesh Colossus", General Cornwallis's treatment of Earl Winthrop I am very satisfied, and even privately feel that Winthrop Jr.'s defeat in the Delin River Bend is not all a bad thing.

The hill giant mercenary regiment boarded the troop barge towed by the steamer from the wharf of Layton City. After sailing along the river for three days, the fleet arrived at the front-line base camp and joined forces with the Cornwallis Corps.

At the same time, Queen Huaia also drove the Flesh Colossus to send it over.

General Thomas Cornwallis was strong and full of ambition. He led an army of 20,000 plus the hill giant mercenary regiment, and marched into the town of Delin in a mighty way.

During this period, Audrey and Green's troops have also returned to Delin Town one after another. General Green also came with the native allies recruited in the western jungle.

Including the goblin clan and elven warriors under the leadership of the goblin leader De Liyanan.

The "Cold-Blooded Tribe" lizardmen who have lived in the Great Swamp for generations and have allied themselves with the Durin Town Council many years ago.

The ogre family ruled by Shrek, the lord of the deep forest valley "Smart King" and the archmage Fiona.

Finally, there are the centaur warriors of the "Ironhoof Tribe" led by Prince Drogo.

These aboriginal volunteers from all over Yalfheim have a total strength of 5,000. The fighting power of these goblins, elves, lizardmen, ogres, and centaurs is obviously stronger than that of human soldiers. Tens of thousands of corps.

By the end of September, the total strength of the Continental Army gathered in Delin Town was comparable to that of the approaching Feizhen army, and it was already capable of fighting.

But the commander in chief of the Continental Army, the seasoned General Nathaniel Greene, was still anxious about the upcoming battle.

The good news is that the battle site is located in the hinterland, and the Fizen Royal Fleet cannot provide effective support for the army far from the coastline. Both the Battle of Baden Wetlands and the Battle of Delin River Bay have proved a fact:

The Continental Army can defeat the Fizen Army only if it avoids the powerful Fizen Royal Fleet.

But there is also bad news.

General Cornwallis, who was cautious in using troops, has also realized that the inability to obtain fleet support is a major hidden danger. In order to make up for this lack, he communicated with the naval commander, General William Howe, through Earl Winthrop, and requested that half of the naval forces be dispatched to the Under his own command, and with the consent of General Howe.

In this way, General Cornwallis will have four more wings of aviation, plus the original first and second wings of land-based aviation, and now General Cornwallis has no fewer than 600 well-trained giant crows. available.

It was this large air force that General Green worried about.

Since the "War of Independence" started two years ago, the air supremacy on the battlefield has been firmly in the hands of the Fiend.

Since the "Battle of Mead River" that broke out in October last year, the Feizhen giant crow has become the master of the battlefield, and played a vital role in the subsequent battles against Freeport, Forge Valley, Prince's Harbor and Leiden City. The role, the actual damage and psychological deterrence caused to the Continental Army, even surpassed that of the Navy's naval guns.

Now the Continental Army can barely compete with Master Fei on the ground battlefield, but when it comes to the air force, it is really hard for a woman to cook without rice.

The Continental Army itself does not have the ability to build an air force, nor does it have strong anti-aircraft firepower. In the past battles, it can only withstand the bombing of the giant crow.

Of course, relying on the "head iron" alone cannot hold the bomb, and this passive situation of being beaten must be changed.

General Green wrote several letters to Commander-in-Chief Vassar, focusing on the issue of the Air Force, hoping that the Commander-in-Chief would request support from foreign friends.

George Vasa also attached great importance to this issue, and did not disappoint his old friend. After many efforts, he finally obtained the promise of the Canaan authorities to send a so-called "volunteer army" to help the Green Corps as soon as possible.

This is kind of funny.

It is no problem to say that the Canaan veterans brought their own dry food and rushed to the New World to join the war and followed Her Royal Highness. They are "volunteers".

However, 6 "Dawn-class" magical airships and 300 blue sky knights riding Pegasus were dispatched to the New World to participate in the war. They also insisted that this was a "volunteer army without any official background" and "spontaneously organized by the people". Is it going too far?

What's even more exaggerated is...the commander of this so-called volunteer air force is the Crown Prince of Canaan, Gloria Zion.

Is Master Fei really a fool? !

However, the Canaan government did not recognize the strong protest of the Fizen authorities, and insisted that this was the volunteer army, and publicly "clarified the truth", pointing out that Prince Colofa was not the commander of the volunteer army, but just took the airship with the wind in the name of a traveler, purely It's a private matter, please don't be too nervous and make unreasonable associations.
