Super Chief - Chapter 729

It is not only the soldiers of the Grimbear Army who have witnessed the destruction of Torreon Fortress, but also many local natives and Spaniards who secretly waited for the Grimbear Army to go back and return to the fortress nearby.

　　 They were terrified by the powerful force of the Grim Bear Army.

　　 That is a strong fortress castle, it turned into a pile of ruins without being able to resist it even for twenty minutes.

　　 Compared with the property left by these people in the castle, they have been completely frightened by this violent attack.

　　 The local aboriginals are easy to say, there are no houses and other properties, the big deal is to rebuild. But those Spanish merchants and some Spanish soldiers who escaped really had no choice.

　　 They can only silently embark on the journey back to Mexico City.

　　 Behind them, is the East Route Army of the Grim Bear Army.

In fact, the speed of the Grim Bear Army’s attack on the Governorate of New Spain is not fast, because including artillery and luggage, a division and a half need to pull a lot of things, and the road on the Mexican plateau is not easy to walk, so at present The speed of the Lu Army marching was mostly maintained at 20 kilometers a day.

It took more than 1,300 kilometers to reach Mexico City from the U.S.-Mexico border of the later generations. On the road, we had to stop to attack some important cities or fortresses. Therefore, to reach Mexico City, it would take at least two and a half months to three. Time of month.

　　 In this regard, Shi Xiong is not in a hurry, and Kuaima and Bone Spear are also not in a hurry.

　　 It is undoubtedly the best policy to surrender a soldier without fighting. The Grim Bear Army intends to use this slow attack to exert tremendous pressure on the Spanish authorities and the Governor of New Spain, Governor Moya.

　　 Don’t you let the place? Well, I take it back with his own hands.

　　 This kind of offensive rhythm, which is obviously capable of wind-sweeping but slow and turbulent, really put a lot of pressure on the Spaniard.

　　 Watching the important cities or fortresses slowly taken down by the soldiers of the empire, the Spaniards are really hairy.

　　 Fight, you can’t beat the Empire’s Grim Bear Army at all. But just give up without fighting, that is not what the governor of the new Spanish governorate should do.

　　 Therefore, Governor Luis Gonzalez Moya has completely turned into an ant on a hot pot these days.

　　 He once tried to send messengers to negotiate with the commander of the Grim Bear Army, but after these messengers went, they were directly **** and left in place. Regardless of whether it is a fast horse or a bone spear, he will not negotiate with the messenger sent by Governor Moya at all.

　　 What’s the joke, and negotiate with you, if you let the boss know, the boss still can’t cut us?

　　 The command given by the boss is very simple, lead the troops to push directly to Mexico City, and talk about what happened when you get to Mexico City.

　　 Regarding the Grim Bear Army’s attitude of not asking, but just sullenly forward, Governor Moya is also completely gone.

　　 Fight, let alone the army in his hand, even if he pulls the entire Spanish army over, I am afraid it is not the opponent of the Grim Bear army in front of him. Those merchants and soldiers who had escaped from the north were able to clearly explain the powerful attack power of the Grim Bear Army. Although they had not seen it with their own eyes, Governor Moya did not dare to doubt the power of the Grim Bear Army.

　　 Before he came to the Governorate of New Spain as the governor, he heard many people in Spain say that a powerful tribe had emerged on the New World of North America, and this tribe had incredible armed forces.

　　 Then when Moya came to Mexico City and became the governor of the new Spanish governorate, he knew better about this neighbor in the north.

　　 The more I got to know this neighbor, the more weird Governor Moya felt.

　　 In his opinion, the British, Spain’s arch-enemy, have developed fast enough, but compared to the incredible neighbor in the north, the British’s development speed is not worth mentioning.

　　 If Moya understood the word “open hanging”, he would definitely call this increasingly powerful neighbor in the north!

　　 Actually, a long time ago, Moya began to worry about the neighbor in the north. He also mentioned to His Majesty that he should pay attention to defending the neighbor in the north many times. But at that time the War of Independence was being fought. In order to seize the fortress of Gibraltar, Spain focused almost all its attention on the southernmost part of the Spanish mainland. Coupled with the fact that the family of arms dealers in the country caught up with the neighbors in the north, the country seemed not too interested in guarding against the neighbors in the north.

　　 Without domestic support, even Governor Moya is helpless.

　　 As a result, what happened now really confirmed his previous judgment on this neighbor.

　　 But on the contrary, Moya has nothing to do with this powerful neighbor.

　　 Especially when the East Route Army of the Grim Bears destroyed Torreon and then took Durango, and then came to San Luis Potosí, the entire New Spain Governorate, including the country, was shocked.

　　 No way, who made San Luis Potosí at this time the most important silver and gold mining area in the governorate of New Spain and even in the Kingdom of Spain?

San Luis Potosí was established as early as 1583 as a Franciscan missionary district. As a result, ten years after the fortress was established, huge reserves of silver and gold were discovered on the San Pedro hill near the fortress. mine. Since then it has become a crazy place.

Under the huge temptation of silver and gold, countless merchants from China have poured in here, making it a very prosperous city in just over ten years~www.mtlnovel.com~ Later, the governor of the governorate district of New Spain at that time simply established the city of San Luis Potos here, making this city the center of colonial rule within a radius of hundreds of kilometers.

　　The silver and gold mines in San Luis Potosí are now the largest silver and gold mines in the Governorate of New Spain and the Kingdom of Spain. If this is lost, the country’s increasingly tight finances may even face the danger of complete destruction.

　　 Therefore, San Luis Potosí must not lose it.

However, even if Governor Moya sent more than 6,000 Spanish troops to San Luis Potosí, he even did not hesitate to weaken Mexico City’s defense forces and sent some garrisons from Mexico City to San Luis Potosí. The Spanish army of more than 10,000 men still failed to withstand the brutal attack of the Grim Bears.

　　 The battle took place about ten kilometers northwest of San Luis Poto. More than 10,000 Spanish soldiers responsible for the defense of San Luis Potosi, only resisted the Grim Bear soldiers for less than half a day before they began to collapse and fled south.

　　 This battle was also the fiercest battle ever fought by the Grim Bear East Army after entering the Governorate of New Spain. But even if the Spaniards sent an army of more than 10,000 people, they were still beaten up by the Grim Bear army.

　　 In the face of the advanced weapons that the Grim Bear Army has led this era for a century, the number of people is not enough to fill the huge gap between weapons. Not to mention that the number of the Eastern Route Army far exceeds that of the Spanish garrison in San Luis Potosí.

　　 What did the Spaniards fight against the Grizzlies?
