Nan Ming Sun Never Sets

Chapter 636 Destiny?
The 636th Brigade was undoubtedly a powerful Ming army. They quickly dispatched troops from Bridgeport Mansion and occupied Boston on the third day.There was no resistance along the way, and the militiamen were unable to compete with a well-equipped and well-trained Ming regular army ground force no matter in terms of size or strength.

However, the 636th Brigade of the Ming Army was soon harassed by the local militia.

After they took over the original British military camp, they stationed here.Originally, when they captured this military camp, it was already empty. The militiamen of the "New England Republic" would not defend their camps and fight them, so they simply withdrew.

But on the fourth day after they moved into the barracks, someone fired sniper shots near the barracks, almost hitting the soldiers standing guard.

"I think you are too careless. The British don't understand the principle of building barracks. Don't we understand it too? There are several civilian buildings around here, even three-story buildings, and you can see them from above. Inside our barracks, wouldn’t our every move be seen by these rebels? And this is within the scope of the rifles. Fortunately, this time, the shot was shot and no one was hurt. What about the next time? If they get it What about mortars and the like, shooting shells into the barracks?!" Yue Shenglong encountered this incident as soon as he arrived in Boston, and was very angry, and severely criticized Lu Shao, the army major in charge of the barracks.

Lu Shao could only lower his head and be scolded, because the responsibility for this matter did lie with him.They drove all the way from Hartford without encountering any resistance.Ordinary local people they met even welcomed them, which paralyzed their nerves.Lu Shao originally thought that the task this time was to easily occupy the city, and then he could slowly send troops into the countryside to hunt down those "founding fathers".

However, it is clear that the city is not a safe place. There are many militiamen who want to destroy and cause trouble. They usually look like obedient citizens, and they will probably sing praises for the arrival of the Ming army. Out of the body of the weapon.

Yue Shenglong calmed down and criticized himself: "I am also responsible for the underestimation of this situation. It is obvious that these local people have resistance to our rule. They know that there is no way to confront us head-on, so they want to use Shameful way."

A young-looking officer came in from the door and saluted Yue Shenglong.

Yue Shenglong said to Lu Shao: "Just in time, let me introduce you to a new colleague, this Major Kojima Ichiro, who is a staff officer who has just been transferred from the staff headquarters to our North American Command. Controlling' themed course items can come in handy on our side."

Kojima Ichiro also saluted Lu Shao, and Lu Shao returned the salute, quite surprised: "Are you from Dongying?"

Kojima Ichiro nodded and said, "That's right."

Lu Shao asked: "Promoted from the Fan Army?"

Kojima Ichiro shook his head: "No, I was admitted to the Daming Preparatory Staff Officer Academy, and I have been a member of the regular army since the day I enlisted."

Lu Shao was surprised, but did not say it clearly.The Military Academy of Ming Dynasty is also open to the colonies of Xuanweisi, but on the one hand, there are not many candidates from ethnic minorities who apply for these military schools. unit.Compared with the local candidates of Ming Dynasty with better education conditions, they do not have an advantage.In fact, military schools generally have a certain degree of discriminatory treatment for these minority candidates, and will use stricter standards to measure them.And this Kojima Ichiro was able to be admitted to the Reserve Staff Officer Academy, obviously because his grades were so good that he couldn't even pass the strict marking card.

Kojima Ichiro continued: "The rebels in Massachusetts this time were a premeditated and organized rebellion. They were able to revolt without the support of the United Kingdom, and they were not even afraid of the strength of our Ming Dynasty, which shows that they have a certain degree of self-confidence. of."

Lu Shao asked: "How do you know they are not stupid?"

"Stupidity is for sure." Kojima Ichiro said, "but they must also have a set of self-consistent logic and their own strategies. For example, what these rebels are using now is actually the strategy of 'encircling the cities from the countryside'. Their leaders The upper class has left Boston and is lurking somewhere in the country, and we don't know exactly what happened to them. In addition, there are also a large number of militia rebels following them, hidden among the people in urban and rural areas, who may at any time Sneak attack on us. Although it doesn't hurt much, it's a headache."

Yue Shenglong sighed: "It's troublesome, Massachusetts is not small, they hide on farms in the countryside, even in the woods, we can't do anything about them. If we move Chinese in later, it may cause unnecessary casualties. Major Kojima, what do you think made them so determined to resist our Ming Dynasty?"

Ichiro Kojima posted a photo on a whiteboard in the war room, "This man, Jamerson Jefferson, is, in my opinion, the most important of all Massachusetts rebels at this stage."

"Isn't it Hancock, Harper or something?"

"Those people are just people on the stage, but it is this Jamerson Jefferson who really strengthened this group of people, and even the people at the lower level, against the rule of Ming Dynasty. He is a Puritan pastor. There is evidence that this person has been in contact with a large number of people. Ming scientific knowledge and thought, and then he revolutionized his church, which has now become one of the most influential churches in Massachusetts. This church is called 'Destiny Christian Church', with serious racist tendencies and Sinophobia They think that Daming is a doomsday demon placed by God in order to punish believers, while we Asians are demons in human skin. Our purpose is to eliminate their Europeans and make no one on earth believe in Christ."

Lu Shao made a joke and said: "This part can't be said to be completely wrong."

"Well, in short, Destiny Christ will claim that we Da Ming demons are the test God left them, and the end of depriving them of wealth, women and faith, so they must resist us. They are God's chosen people and represent justice. , and those who die in battle are taken to heaven by angels."

Yue Shenglong said seriously: "For this kind of thing, the people stationed on the ground actually have to listen to you, a newcomer, explaining it. It shows how far our work has gone wrong."

He continued: "So it seems that the situation here in Massachusetts is more serious than we thought."
