Fox of France

Chapter 447 , Retreat

If the Canadians who entered the presidential palace of the United States this time are all authentic, the English-speaking Canadians will be fine. Although those guys are bad, they have limited artistic skills. They don't have much creativity in graffiti. At most, they just get some red paint and write some nonsense, such as nonsense that starts with the letter F, for example, " I'm fucking Y" and stuff like that, with no technical content at all.

However, there are French-speaking guys from Quebec among Canadians. Quebec was originally a colony of the French. Later, in the Seven Years War, the French lost to the British, and the colony returned to the British. But the main local residents still speak French. Just become French-speaking Brits. Just like in Louisiana right now, there are German-speaking French everywhere.

It is said that these French-speaking guys do not have a high sense of identity with the UK. To be honest, they don't have a high sense of identity with Canada. Until hundreds of years later, they all threatened to ask for a referendum on independence. But at this time, they were very enthusiastic about beating the Americans. This is of course because - Americans persecute Catholics!

Speaking of the British immigrants who first came to the North American continent, many of them were to escape the persecution of the Puritans by the Anglican Church. But as the saying goes, a boy who slays a dragon always turns into a dragon in the end. Once these guys who believed in Calvin's ideas established their own country, they immediately began to persecute other heresies, such as Catholicism.

However, this can be regarded as the traditional art of Calvinism. When Calvin was still persecuted by the Catholic Church, in his most important book "Principles of Religion", he wrote very sincerely: "It is sinful to put heretics to death, and it is against the law to end their lives with fire and sword. of all the principles of humanity.” But as soon as Calvin became the de facto ruler of Geneva, he immediately cooked a big barbecue with a heretic called Servetus who did not recognize the “Trinity.”

So when the Puritans, the followers of Calvin, gained power in America, they learned from their teachers and attacked those "ungodly heresies". Many Catholics fled to the French-speaking part of Canada, and they brought this religious hatred with them.

In terms of artistic ability, those who speak French are better than those who speak English. For example, when Private Bill from Ottawa was carrying a bucket of black paint and was about to write a vulgar text on the desk of the President of the United States, his friend Louis from Quebec grabbed him.

"What are you going to write on it?" Louie asked.

"Of course, Jefferson, I've fucked your whole family. What else could it be?" asked the simple Bill.

"That's too unimaginative! It's just... Listen to me! First, you're going to get a bucket of red paint, and then you're going to write: 'Dear President Jefferson, I'm on your desk, I had a good time with your sisters and daughters, and I wrote you a letter here with the things they bleed, and they all said that I am much more capable than you...'”

"Wow! Louie, you're such a badass! But, it's really fun to paint like this, hahaha... just do it!"

Then Bill went to change a bucket of red paint...

In addition to the text, those French-speaking guys also left a lot of paintings in the presidential palace, what about Calvin going to hell, what about Calvin leading the Puritans to kneel and lick Lucifer in hell, the paintings are quite realistic .

In addition, the Canadians also found a secret passage underground in the presidential palace of the United States, but it seems that no one has entered this secret passage for a long time, and they don't know what it is used for.

But the British offensive basically stopped there. Before receiving domestic reinforcements, the British, or Canadians, faced this unsolvable big problem, that is, their military strength and logistical limits were very low. Now that it has become like this, it has basically reached the limit of its military strength and logistics. The logistics line from Cleveland to Washington was also constantly harassed by the Americans.

Just like in another time and space, after Napoleon took Moscow, he stopped in Moscow, hoping to see the envoy sent by the Tsar to pray for peace. General Isaac Bullock also stopped in Washington with his army for a week to wait for a possible peace emissary from the Americans.

However, although the Americans suffered several defeats in a row, they did not intend to seek peace immediately. The Americans know that the strength of the Canadians has reached its limit. As long as the U.S. Navy can continue to block Canada's air routes, the strength of the Canadians will always be exhausted. Negotiation is much better.

On the other hand, although the Americans were beaten by the British on the frontal battlefield. However, Yankees with abundant martial virtues do things like harassment, but they still have great potential for development. American people have a lot of guns, and the guns they buy with their own money are generally better in performance than the guns purchased by the country for the army. And because they play a lot with guns, their marksmanship is also good. So riding a horse, carrying a gun, and attacking the British logistics convoy from time to time, it performed very well.

So after staying for a week, General Isaac Bullock led the army and began to return along the same road. Just like in the original history, when Napoleon withdrew his troops from Russia, the Russian Cossacks followed Napoleon's army and continued to attack Napoleon's army, constantly causing huge losses to the French army.

But the situation of the British army is much stronger than that of Napoleon in another time and space. The American militia did spontaneously follow the British army and tried to attack the retreating British army. But the distance the British need to retreat is much closer, and more importantly, there is no strong General Winter on the American side.

Therefore, the British's retreat to Cleveland was quite smooth. Most of the American cavalry who tried to take advantage of it got nothing, and some were even beaten to death by the British counterattack. The British not only returned to Cleveland smoothly, but also snatched everything that could be robbed along the way-the British also knew that if the country could not send reinforcements quickly, the British might be the biggest enemy in North America for some time to come. It's a lack of supplies.

For a period of time thereafter, with Cleveland as the center, the British army used its control of the waterways of the Great Lakes to continuously harass the nearby Americans and rob their towns and farms. Then send these things back to Canada through the waterway.
