America 1881: They Call Me Legend

Chapter 461

"Give it all to me!"

Couch gave an order, and the cowboys rushed to pick up the train.

"Da da da!"

Suddenly, a terrifying roar sounded.

The four Maxims fired.

Bullets rained into the sky above the cowboys.

They had never seen such a terrifying sight.

The scream of bullets piercing the air rang in their ears, making people shudder.

These cowboys have been wandering in the west all year round, living a life of licking blood.

They are still very clear about what can be touched, what cannot be touched, and what will die if touched.

The cowboys turned and ran, looking for cover.

But how can there be a bunker on this vast grassland?
There were also a few unlucky ones who were hit in the thigh by stray bullets and fell to the ground and howled.

The scene became chaotic again.

"I said, if you get any closer to this train, you will be beaten into a sieve." Chen Jianqiu stood on the roof of the train and shouted at them.

Couch's face was a little uncomfortable.

Today is the second time such an embarrassing scene has occurred.

But there was nothing he could do, he could only watch the train slowly passing by before him, heading towards the opposite side of the bridge.

Taking advantage of the effort just now, Li Sifu and his cavalry had already cleaned up the bridge, and dragged a few dead horses back for dinner along the way.

"By the way, don't think about crossing the river with the train. This bridge allows people without weapons to cross, but if you have a gun, I think it poses a threat to our residence, so you will definitely be beaten into a sieve. .”

Chen Jianqiu did not forget to leave a word to Ku Qi on the train, and waved at him.

"President, or I'll shoot him down with one shot." The braided man gritted his teeth.

"Don't panic, when our tens of thousands of members catch up, will they dare to attack civilians? If they dare, I will report to the federal army!"

Couch took a deep breath.

It could be seen that he was trying very hard to calm himself down.

The weapons just now left him with lingering fears. For the first time, he had doubts about the armed forces in his hands.

Not long after the "armed train" Chen Jianqiu was on passed, the second train followed.

They also showed the truck compartment armed with Maxim, and then swept the sky towards the sky.

The members of the association who were just about to set up camp on the spot had to lie on the ground again.

God knows which bullet will land on their heads.

Then, there is a third column!

The armed march continues.

"You guys are fucking endless." Couch couldn't bear it anymore, took out his gun and fired a few shots into the sky.

The aggrieved cowboys also started shooting into the sky.

But he was answered by a series of rattling sounds.

These dense sounds, crisp and rich, are so much more than the impotent rage of the cowboys.

The Cowboys had to get down on the ground again.

On the other side of the river bank, Li Sifu looked at Kuqi and his cowboys who kept standing up and lying on the ground, with a puzzled expression.

"Boss, are all the people in this association so polite? You don't have to bow to our train all the time, right? This is too pious!" He sighed.

"Hurry up and lay the boundary pillars, the big troops will be here soon!" Chen Jianqiu patted Li Sifu's shoulder.

These three trains brought the main force of more than 1000 people.

After supplies, ammunition, maxims and field guns were all unloaded, the train moved away again to make way for subsequent trains.

Except for those who set up camp by the river, the rest of the people quickly scattered everywhere to take up places for the people who came after them.

It may be that the Chinese have a unique talent in yarding houses.

Not long after, a simple camp stood up on the grassland on the south bank of the river.

Compared with this side, the north bank of the river is much more bleak.

Couch and his cowboys waited for a long time until the caravans and wagons of the follow-up association brought tents and related supplies.

They began to set up a rough tent and a bonfire, intending to pass the night first.

However, those members of the association came one after another with the caravan.

When they saw the camp across the river, they were all dumbfounded.

Those who don't know the truth are very at a loss.

What is this?Where did it come from?What happened?

"Mr. Couch, I'm sorry to bother you, but we would like to ask, why don't we go to the south bank of the river? Didn't you say that the land that the association is interested in is there?"

A group of pioneers approached Kutcher, who was sulking at the other side of the river.

They're all members of the Colonists' Guild trying to figure out what's going on.

"The opposite side is occupied by a group of Chinese, why don't you organize it now, and I'll take you there to unify, how about it?" Kuqi made a small calculation in his heart.

With such a large group of people rushing over, he didn't believe that the other side dared to shoot!
The pioneers looked at each other and began whispering.

Then they scattered.

"Eh? What are you doing?" Couch asked loudly towards their backs.

The old man walking at the back with the slowest legs turned his head and said to him:

"President, don't be angry if I say something, I think it's better for us to quickly occupy a place along the north bank of the river."

"If you have the time to get entangled with the people on the other side of the river, you might as well hurry up and find your own place."

Pointing to the white steam rising from the railway in the distance, he said with a wry smile: "The other immigrants are coming soon, if you slow down, you may not even be able to drink the soup."

The old man's words instantly reminded Couch.

What was the purpose of the Oklahoma Colonists' Association?Isn't it just a piece of land for each of them in this operation?
The land on the north bank of the river is also land!
"Hurry up and find a place! My own land hasn't been drawn yet!" He turned and ran towards his horse.

The cowboys who could still move in the camp also moved.

They rode out of the camp, began to claim their land, and then put up the boundary markers.

Finally, return to this simple camp for the night before dark.

After all, there are all kinds of beasts on this prairie, and it is much safer to gather together than to be alone.

Only the unlucky ones who were injured and lying on the ground were in vain. Some of them even lost their lives due to poor medical conditions.

Such camps are spread throughout the open areas of Oklahoma.

In the few hours from afternoon to evening, the first batch of open land was carved up.

Chen Jianqiu took all the registered Chinese and residents of other skin colors from New Mexico to occupy a large area of ​​land south of the North Carnedine River.

When these residents were in New Mexico, they were used to living in peace with the Chinese, so the process of dividing the land was orderly.

In addition to them, some "retail investors" also obtained some land on the south bank of the river.

Of course, these people must learn to live in an environment surrounded by Chinese from now on.

Members of the Oklahoma Settlers' Association claimed land on the north bank of the river.

Compared with the South Bank, these lands are a bit poorer, but compared with other places in the west, they can already be regarded as rich lands.

The camp where they gathered and the Chinese Walled City looked across the river.

And in the future, those who came late will not be so lucky.

When night falls, these people walk here and there with dejected faces, looking for leftovers that have been ignored by others, but what often greets them is the gun in the hands of the original owner of the land.

After finding his own piece of land, Cook returned to the camp.

The most important thing was done, and the big stone in my heart fell to the ground.

He began to figure out how to get back on the field.
