Thank you Child Safety Yellow Hats!

This kind of hat, which was born to protect elementary and middle school students in the early morning and dusk when the light is unclear, also protects Stonewall Jackson at this moment.

After the first round of firing, the 18th North Carolina regiment realized that it had accidentally injured a friendly army and stopped firing.

Stonewall Jackson was shot only once this time and did not require amputation.

But even so, the lung infection still caused this seemingly strong man to fall on the hospital bed.

And today, Robert Lee once again came to visit his confidant and love general.

"General, Commodore Jackson's fever still persists. Maybe we can try bloodletting again."

"Wait, I always feel that Thomas seems to have gotten worse after the last bloodletting."

Robert Lee made the military doctor who was about to make a move retreat, and finally saved his little brother's life.

You must know that the research of later generations believes that long-term anemia is an important reason why Stonewall Jackson suffered from pneumonia.

It is conceivable that if the blood is injected a few more times, the stone wall will probably become a bean dregs wall.

Dissuading the military doctor, Robert Lee pushed aside the curtain of the camp tent and walked in.

The old friend of many years was lying on the bed with a sallow face.

In later generations, many people spoke highly of Stonewall Jackson, that is, Thomas Jackson, and almost called him a saint like Lincoln.

He also said he was a humanitarian who sympathized with black slaves.

However, the reason why Thomas Jackson and General Robert E. Lee had an unbreakable friendship, apart from the fact that they were fellow Virginians, was that they participated in the war of invading Mexico together, and jointly captured the congressman who advocated the abolition of slavery. .

It can be said that this so-called morally perfect person is essentially a southern red neck.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to be so embraced by the rednecks in the southern states.

Robert Lee looked at his best friend, who was half asleep and half awake, with a serious expression on his face.

The victory at the Battle of Chancellorsville basically disintegrated the Union Army's spring offensive, and the next initiative was on the Confederate Army's side.

But Thomas Jacks' serious illness deprived Robert Lee of his most important helper.

"General, cross the river, cross the river!" Jackson struggled to get up, and wanted to persuade Robert Lee to cherish the time and advance quickly.

"Thomas, you need to get better as soon as possible. I need your help this time going north... By the way, you may be interested in this war analysis."

Robert Lee sat gently beside his best friend's bed, and took out a crumpled newspaper from his arms, "This man called 'Death Knell' completely predicted our strategy and tactics correctly, if it wasn't for the time difference, I would almost doubt it This is you submitting anonymously."

Robert Li Qiang smiled happily and told his old friend about the newspaper specially sent from Canada and related interesting stories, which might make the old friend feel better.

Chapter 067 Battle Report and Teeth

The capital of Citigroup, Washington, the White House.

Arabian Lincoln clutched his cheeks and slumped behind the oval desk.

What was on the table was the news of the defeat of the Federal Army at Chancellorsville.

"What a bunch of idiots!"

Lincoln couldn't help baring his teeth and cursing in a low voice.

It's that Robert Lee and Stonewall Jackson again!

The grades of these two guys at West Point Military Academy are not outstanding at all. It may be too much to say that they are mediocre, but they are definitely not top students.

But why are these two Virginians always able to beat the top West Point students they sent out to the ground?

Even now, on the streets of Washington, Lincoln can hear people talking about the PP Corps.

The full name of PP is [Peppa Pig], which means Peppa Pig.

The PP Legion, also known as the Page Legion, got its nickname from the cartoon pig's head printed on their military bag, and the words [Peppa] on it.

In this day and age, all kinds of children's cartoon books are very popular.

However, the most classic Tom Cat, Mickey Mouse, etc., will not be known to the public until the TV appears in 1920.

But anyway, this pink, revolver-like pig was still loved by the Confederate Army.

The more tragic the war with the high death rate, the more people need spiritual comfort.

The appearance of Peppa Pig is undoubtedly a bright light for the southern soldiers in the boundless darkness.

So much so that nowadays, whether it is the Northern Virginia Legion itself or other southern troops, they will affectionately call them Page Boy, and Page Boy, like cow boy, is already a proper noun.

For Lincoln, who had military experience, what he cared more about was that the army directly under Robert Lee had better equipment and decent military uniforms.

You must know that although the southern states are known as agricultural states, in fact, the real agriculture and animal husbandry in the United States are all on the northern Great Plains.

Those plantations in the South were filled with cotton and sugar cane, which had limited value in the war.

After losing the market in the north, these agricultural products can only rot in the land.

In contrast, the great plains in the north are suitable for growing food, raising cattle, sheep and horses.

The southern state is not so much an agricultural state as it is a poor ghost state, while under the rule of the Northern Federation, there are all kinds of agriculture, animal husbandry, industry and commerce, and it is much richer.

These are reflected on the battlefield, that is, the soldiers of the Northern Army are neatly dressed and decent, and the food is also rich in grains and beef.

The southern army was dressed in all kinds of country bumpkins, and their food was only corn.

However, it now appears that this Page Legion is a special case.

According to reports from the front, Robert Lee seems to have used his personal connections to buy suitable uniforms from the British at very low prices.

These military uniforms are not only bright in color and well cut, but also extremely cool and breathable.

So much so that, during the battle, these southerners don't feel depressed when they wear fiery red silk scarves around their necks.

Don't underestimate this red silk scarf.

According to the military doctors, in the Southern Army, which lacked bandages and other medical supplies, this strong red ribbon became a sharp tool for treating the wounded and local hemostasis.

Even, I heard that the military doctors of the Page Corps also invented a "triangular scarf" bandaging method to make the most of this red silk scarf.

Now those southerners say that red symbolizes their will to be free, to fire.

One day, they will plant red flags all over the United States.

"Put it all over the United States, bah, you don't even think about planting a red flag on the White House in 100 years!"

Even Lincoln, who is as gentle and elegant as Lincoln, couldn’t help swearing when he saw the arrogant words of these southerners, “Isn’t it just a piece of red cloth, and these southern country bumpkins would regard it as a treasure! And that stupid Hats, ridiculous munitions bags... Whoops!"

Because of his excitement, Lincoln spit out a bloody tooth from his mouth.

"Damn Peppa! This is my last tooth!"

Lincoln groaned in pain as he tried to push his teeth back into their sockets, but to no avail.

……

Lincoln was born in a farm family, his parents were British immigrants.

His parents moved to southwestern Indiana when he was a child.

You can tell from the name who the original owner of this land is.

So Lincoln has witnessed his parents killing and expelling those ignorant and low-level people like hunting wild animals since he was a child.

However, the saint of Lincoln who was later canonized never showed the slightest, even performative, sympathy for the Indians.

In his youth, Lincoln worked as a sailor, a plantation worker, and a land surveyor, and later achieved fame by attacking slavery, and then somehow became a lawyer.

In short, the teenage stage of this great commander who is qualified to carve his head on the President's Hill in the future is quite rough.

This caused him to suffer from dental caries and other diseases at a very early age.

This is why the portraits of Lincoln that can be seen in later generations all show him as a thin middle-aged man.

After entering politics, in order to maintain a decent image of a politician, Lincoln "reluctantly" used dentures made of slave teeth to support his fluffy cheek muscles.

But with the increasingly busy affairs after becoming president, his remaining teeth have become crumbling.

This time, he even lost his last tooth.

In this way, the original dentures cannot be used and must be remade.

Thinking of the terrible cost of going to the dentist, Comrade Lincoln, who had just become president and was not rich, became grim:

"Damn it, those dentists are a bunch of vampires!"

At this time, the White House was not yet equipped with a professional medical institution, and Lincoln, who was the commander of the Grand Duke of Michigan, had to pay for the medical expenses himself.

"If I bring my own materials, can I save a lot of money?"

Lincoln couldn't help but think of the growing number of blacks in Washington, D.C. these days.

In order to win the support of more swing states and northern factory owners and farmers, Lincoln successively announced the "Abolition of Slavery Proclamation" and "Homestead Act" at the beginning of this year.

From the vague language, it seems to imply that southern blacks, if they can betray their masters and flee to the north, or even serve in the army.

Once the northern government defeated the southern separatists, these blacks could also join in the plundering of Indians through the "Homestead Act" as American citizens.

Wouldn't it be wonderful to change from a slave to a master all of a sudden?

When the black slaves heard that there was such a good thing, the zero-dollar purchase gene hidden in their bodies quietly revived, and they fled to Washington.

Lincoln couldn't help thinking that the blacks who managed to escape all the way here went through the slave ship, the plantation, and the escape to the north, a total of triple survival of the fittest, and the rest were all physically strong.

Their teeth should also be very strong.

It is very suitable for a strong and resolute macho like myself.

Of course, as the savior of black people, Lincoln felt that only a few teeth were not enough to repay his kindness.

Just two days earlier, the all-black Massachusetts 54th Negro Infantry had been stationed.

Although there is not much hope for these "talking animals" in the federal government.

But now with the entire army of the 11th Army annihilated, the entire spring offensive has been eroded.

The Southern Army, especially the group of Pages, will definitely seize the time to launch an attack on Pennsylvania.

Once Pennsylvania fell, the Confederate soldiers would be able to point directly at Washington.

Although I never thought of officially recognizing the citizenship rights of blacks after the war, let alone allowing them to buy land in the West and take it as farmers themselves,

But Lincoln felt that it was time for these noisy blacks to serve the cultivation of the party-state.

Chapter 068 Henry 1860

pop - pop - pop -

There was a burst of intensive gunfire from a shooting range far away from the core area of ​​the Daming logging factory.

Zhu Fugui was wearing a special grass-green military uniform with no military rank but only sun and moon badges, and was shooting with a beautiful steel gun.

With the recoil of the rifle, Zhu Fugui also swayed back and forth.

"Long live, good marksmanship!"

After Zhu Fugui fired a round of guns, the old eunuch Li hurriedly took a handkerchief to wipe Zhu Fugui's sweat,

"Long Live Lord, you really have the demeanor of the late emperor. Back then, the late emperor rode on a horse with a firecracker in his hand. With one shot, he shot down the manchu magistrate..."

"So-so, I have learned one-tenth of my father's skills."

Zhu Fugui handed the spring loaded rifle to Donald beside him.

The latter took the snatch, stretched his neck and looked at the clean target paper 50 meters away, wondering if it was time for him to wear glasses again.

Although he has not learned Chinese yet, Donald can still feel that the Chinese gangster and the number one courtier beside him seem not to be discouraged by the fact that all ten shots missed the target.

At the same time, guard Yang Liu trotted over to take off the target paper and retrieve it.

Donald took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes vigorously.

At this time, there are obviously ten more holes on the target paper, and 9 of them are within the 10th ring, and only 1 is on the 9th ring.

But there were no burn marks on the hole caused by the bullet passing through at high speed.

It's not so much a bullet hole as it is...

Donald glanced suspiciously at Yang Liu's little finger.
