The sun never sets in America

Chapter 427 Sweeping across the four southern states
Montgomery, Alabama, southern United States...

"Zhi Zhi", stepping on the unpicked cotton field, Hu Fengyun's face was covered with white cotton wool, looking like a hairy tofu.

“Look what I caught!!”

There was a burst of sarcastic laughter not far away. Hu Fengyun looked over and saw a black man wearing a green military uniform being pulled out.

This black soldier obviously looked much more frightened. When he was caught, he clearly had a rifle in his hand, but it was useless. When he saw the Han people, he looked like a rabbit that had been discovered, only walking with "black chicken legs" "Escape, as for other things, is not considered at all.

The so-called counterattack is just to shoot back without looking.

"Stand at attention!!"

The black soldier stood up straight as a reflex, as if recalling the treatment he received in the white barracks.

"Stand up straight and take a rest..."

"Brush" reflexively stretched out his right foot and quickly retracted it.

Ma Xiaoou, who had just gotten off the train, was wearing a major's military uniform, crocodile leather shoes sent by his wife, and a starlight watch. It could be seen at a glance that his family was in good condition.

"It's better to die. It will make our future transportation easier and cost less money..."

"Ha ha……"

Although Ma Xiaoou replaced "伱" with you, it was obvious that in Luo Xiaojia's view, he was still showing his superior attitude.

But if you look closely, you will find that this prisoner of war camp is mainly populated by black people, not the white people who currently occupy the mainstream.

Luo Youjia's expression looked more confused than before. After all, no matter how he looked at it now, he was thinking of sending these dark guys to the battlefield as cannon fodder.

"If it cannot be repaired, it must be repaired. This is an order from above. If it cannot be repaired within ten days, it is not that there is a problem with the order from above, but that there is a problem with the execution of you people!!"

"So the requirement above is to use as much oil as possible before telling them to get out!!"

(When the southern US military retreated, they blew up part of the key railways in order to delay the Han army's offensive in the south)
"The request given to you by the superiors is to try to repair the entire broken railway line within ten days. During this period, they don't care how you use it, they only care about the results!!"

"Major Ma, I understand what you mean, but I want to know the fate of this group of people. We can't keep building the railway here, right?"

“What if it can’t be repaired??”

The laughter around him continued to stimulate Li Jun, and his face became increasingly ugly.

The sergeant's English is pretty good. After all, his father is a foreign trade businessman who used to travel between China and the United States. He himself also knows the hey slaves very well and knows that they are a group of very obedient guys.

After all, those things are the result of hundreds of years of improvement and dietary progress. As for the so-called fried chicken and watermelon stalks, those things are not something that ordinary slaves can eat often. After all, for farmers, raising cattle is more convenient than raising chickens. The only thing The believable thing is watermelons, which are really easy to grow, and the farmer’s family can’t eat too much.

(The high-end watches of the Han Dynasty are famous all over the world because of the stars on the dial. The lowest one costs more than a thousand yuan. It can be regarded as the highest luxury product that ordinary people in the Han Dynasty could have access to during this period.)

The surrounding Han soldiers who were watching the excitement burst into laughter when they saw this scene. Obviously, for them, it was a very special thing for them to conduct military training on a "black-bone chicken" during this trip to the south. Fun things to do.

After that, he stepped up and kicked the black soldier into the newly dug pit.

As the commander of the prisoner of war camp, Captain Luo Youjia obviously values ​​black people more than the average person. After all, he deals with these guys every day who seem to be unable to see clearly. No matter how stupid he is, he can still see the difference.

…………

"It can even be said that I would rather have them than white people who can write!!"

The black soldier was stunned for a long time and made no next move. Apparently he did not understand what these Han people said.

Luo Xiaojia's expression was stiff and she waited until Ma Xiaoou urged her to speak again:
"What if they die??"

Hu Fengyun held a cheap cigarette hanging from the top of his mouth and kept looking towards the other side of the pit. He saw the black figure who was still struggling in the pit trying to climb up, but was kicked down by Li Jun one after another. self-mumbling:

"It's so dark, how can you see clearly at night? If these guys fight at night, who can beat them?"

"Now, turn around and jump into the pit yourself!!"

Competent and easy to command, this is his biggest and truest impression of this gang of slaves.

"Ha ha……"

"This group of slaves is much easier to control than the white people. They basically won't make trouble and have nothing to go to..."

As soon as Ma Xiaoou finished speaking, Luo Youjia followed him and asked. When asking, he couldn't help but look down at the prisoner of war camp. It was obvious that he was a little reluctant to part with such a good "black donkey".

The laughter of the people around him became even louder. Obviously they all knew what the "pit" was used for.

"What the hell, if I tell you to go in, just go in..."

After finishing speaking, he continued to puff on his cigarette.

Ma Xiaoou's attitude is still very cold, and his words are also chilling, giving people a strong "sense of hell".

The tall and tall black people of later generations were simply not possible during this period.

"You know the requirements above. After the war, slaves will not be allowed in North America, especially black ones..."

"Li Jun, I told you before that these guys are stupider than pigs..."

In a huge prisoner of war camp, there was a machine gun set up in a high observation post. It looked no different from an ordinary prisoner of war camp.

"I think you should understand the meaning."

"Ha ha……"

He seemed to have thought of something, and then said to himself: "Yes, these guys are so gangster, it is estimated that at night, we can't see our own people clearly, how can we win the battle!!"

Looking from the bottom up, there are black prisoners everywhere who have just finished repairing the railway and are waiting for food. These people are not very tall. Except for a few who are used by farmers for breeding, most of them are actually larger than During this period, the Han people, especially the Han soldiers, were much thinner.

Luo Youjia continued to look down, and then answered:
"Yes, within ten days, we will repair this section of the railway and it will not hinder the progress of the army..."

“It better be so!!”

After Ma Xiaoou finished speaking, he left. After all, he had to go to the next place to supervise the repair progress of those places and the treatment of black prisoners.

After he left, Luo Xiaojia looked at the black people below who were lying lazily on the ground basking in the sun. There was a trace of "sarcasm" in his originally sympathetic eyes, and then he issued the latest order:

"Repair this 30-kilometer railway within ten days, no matter how many people die!!"

The black prisoners of war, who were basking in the sun on the ground, obviously did not realize that they were about to live a more miserable life than those of the farmers.

There are even people singing the so-called farm song here. Looking at the black people singing and the Han soldiers around them, they only feel a kind of "incompetent giving up" and a kind of "past" that is not told.

.............................................

"Boom!"

Mortars exploded overhead, killing a group of Confederate troops hiding behind a stone wall.

"Step on", Hu Fengyun took his rifle with six stripes on it and was the first to rush into the building. After rushing into the building, he was shocked by the magnificent decoration inside.

"Bang bang", a burst of gunfire rang out next to Hu Fengyun, which frightened him and immediately hid behind the nearest marble pillar.

"Huhu", just as he hid, the gunshots around him became louder and louder. The difference was that most of the gunfire this time came from the Han army's own counterattack.

He raised his head and fired at the fire point ahead. For Hu Fengyun, it was considered revenge. When the gunfire ended, Hu Fengyun immediately joined the "treasure grabbing army."

But compared to others, he still had terrible luck. Apart from an unknown ring and a hundred dollars in scattered cash, he didn't get anything.

You must know that due to the war, the U.S. dollar has depreciated more than twice as much as it did during the war. If the exchange rate was one to one before the war, then it is basically two to one now, and even in some war zones, it is three to one or five to one. All are very common.

"Oh, I really want to get rich!!"

Hu Fengyun put on the green gemstone ring. He was originally very excited when he found the ring, but his dream of getting rich was completely shattered when a comrade who ran a pawn shop said, "It's made of glass."

"Forget it, living is the most important thing, nothing is more important than living!!"

Hu Fengyun has a good way of comforting himself. Basically, he uses his immortality record to balance the so-called "wealth luck."

"Quick, come out quickly!!"

"The bank's basement is open..."

Hu Fengyun, who was still resting, heard the words "bank" and "basement" and immediately jumped up with a "whoosh" and rushed out without looking back. After all, the superiors were not aware of it at this time. , when you realize it, it will be their turn to get rich, like these big-headed soldiers.

But when he rushed there, he happened to see a layer of seal with the words "Specially provided by the Logistics Department, strictly prohibited to open" written on it in black letters.

There were also a group of money-grubbers around him who were as disappointed as him, and many of them complained like "I don't even get your share of the soup."

Only Hu Fengyun is not surprised. After all, this opportunity to make a fortune has nothing to do with him. If he does get rich one day, he will wonder if God is blind.

In other words, he is going to die! !

With this mentality, Hu Fengyun was transferred to the nearest prisoner of war camp code-named "095" by an official document as the captain.

…………

Florida is the only military port of the U.S. mainland fleet. Ever since the defeat of the Confederate Army's million-strong army in Youzhou, the entire southern state has been in a state of turmoil.

Among them, the biggest impact on the local fleet is that they may not be able to save their local military port.

Because of this incident, the U.S. mainland fleet had one scolding war after another, and it was even divided into two factions.

Some people believe that now is the best opportunity to evacuate. If they evacuate at the last moment, they may fall into a "trap". Then they will experience another failure similar to the Caribbean and Louisiana naval battles, and they will really be finished. .

Therefore, in order to preserve the existing naval strength, the best way is to avoid war, that is, to voluntarily leave Florida and go to New York to join the remaining local fleet to form a powerful fleet to protect the security of the entire east.

The other faction is the reservation faction. This group of people has a very determined attitude, that is, to continue the fight. They even clamored the White House to request that the remaining fleet in New York be mobilized to fight the Han Navy in a decisive battle similar to the Battle of Spain. Such a war would reverse the unfavorable situation of losing ground on the land battlefield.

However, this kind of proposal was criticized as "ignorant" and "reckless" by the evacuationists. They even believed that the failure of the first two naval battles was caused by this group of people. Without the radicalism of this group of people, the first naval battle might not have happened. lose.

If the Caribbean war is not lost, it will be a good thing for the entire war situation, and it may even change the current "pathetic" situation.

The two sides quarreled endlessly, and finally ended on April 30th, because the Han army reached the military port in Florida, and the Atlantic Fleet was also approaching. If they did not leave at this time, the poor American Navy was about to usher in the Battle of the Caribbean Sea. An even greater and irreparable loss.

Standing in the port of Florida, Liu Yu looked at the magnificent American ocean. He stood facing the wind, followed by a group of "general stars". With a click, a "heroic photo" was taken that would be published in the newspaper the next day.

"Ok??"

“How was the shooting??”

Liu Yu turned around and looked at the photographer who just took pictures of them in a very amiable tone.

"No problem, Your Highness, no, I mean, this is the best photo I have ever taken in my life..."

Listening to the familiar "flattery", Liu Yu then smiled at Lu Mushan beside him:
"Compared to these photos, I think battleships are more impressive. What do you think, Commander Lu?"

Liu Yu seemed to be a lot more friendly to Lu Mushan who had unknowingly changed from the commander to the commander.

“Your Highness, I think it’s more meaningful to shoot in New York than here!!”

"Ha ha……"

Lu Mushan said "New York is better", which made everyone laugh triumphantly. It was obvious that they were very interested in New York.

On the way back, Liu Yu sat on the "truck" specially designed for Unicorn officers with bulletproof armor. He stuck his head and looked at the depressed appearance of the city and the ordinary Americans who were hiding everywhere when they saw them.

He said with a complicated expression:
"War has its good side and its bad side. Now, it is its bad side."

Lu Mushan heard this and replied:

"Your Highness, the enemy cries and I laugh, the enemy laughs and I cry, if we are the losers now, look at the expressions of those Americans and how they will treat us!!"

"I'm sure our end will not be better than those hey slaves..."

Hearing Lu Mushan's words, Liu Yu frowned silently, and then said:

"My father asked us to stabilize the front in the south as soon as possible and not to extend it too long at once, but now some people say that we must fight to the end. Commander Lu, what do you think?"

The ball was kicked to his side, and Lu Mushan replied without hesitation:
"Your Highness, whether the battle line is too long depends on our army's control of the southern railway line and the control of the southern coast."

"Our navy currently controls more than half of the waters of the southern states, and has even recently extended its reach to Cuba and the Caribbean..."

"According to recent news from the Army, they are actively repairing the railway lines destroyed by the Yankees. It is expected that it will be completed in no more than ten days..."

Lu Mushan is a navy man, and when it comes to army matters, he is even clearer and more insightful than ordinary army officers.

In fact, it's not just Lu Mushan, but also your army's top brass. They even treasure the navy's battleships like they do.

Just like a joke, the person who knows you best is not necessarily your friend, but must be your enemy! !
Liu Yu grabbed his jade pendant downwards and said:
"Our army has just finished a major battle involving two million people. The soldiers are tired. If we continue to fight, we may become war-weary. If you ask me, it is better to wait for a while and wait for the progress of the war in the north..."

Lu Mushan shook his head and then explained: "Your Highness, our army cannot slow down at this time and must continue to fight."

"The emptiness in the south at this time is a great opportunity to seize the chassis. As for those who seize it but cannot control it, seize it first and then control it later..."

"And if our army continues to fight, it can also put more pressure on the United States. Only by making them feel completely scared can this war end faster, otherwise it will only drag on longer and longer..."

Although Lu Mushan's words sounded reasonable to Liu Yu, he was on a mission after all, so he could only say:

"You can fight, but there must be a boundary and you can't push the battle line too fast!!"

Lu Mushan already understood what Liu Yu meant. This request may not have been made by the prince, but by the sacred Emperor Longwu, the "Emperor".

"Commander Lu, the navy should not move forward in the waters below Florida."

“Including Cuba??”

Lu Mushan followed up and asked.

“Including Cuba!!”

Liu Yu's conversation instantly gave way to Mushan's initial thoughts on Emperor Long Wu's strategy. Obviously, the wily Emperor did not intend to fight in the south to the end in one breath, and what was he waiting for? ?
The word "North" suddenly came to mind.

.........

In just two weeks, the Han army swept through four states and pushed the front to Florida.

(Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Florida)
When Florida completely fell, the United States was shocked, as if it had fallen from the glorious Washington era into the dark abyss of the Middle Ages.
