Rebirth of the Spanish Empire.

Chapter 60 The Impact of the US Army’s Defeat

As the last American was killed, the Indians at the scene were silent for a moment, then burst into cheers.

This was an unprecedented victory for the Indians over the whites. The annihilation of a US military team of 1600 people was an unprecedented achievement in the past.

It can be said that the corpses of the American soldiers were treated extremely cruelly because they hoped not to encounter these people after death. This is also the custom of the Indians.

Chief Hongyun, Chief Fengma and Shaman Sitting Bull sat together. They were the current supreme commanders of the Sioux and Cheyenne coalition forces.

"Chief Hongyun, I wonder how you got these weapons? They are really outstanding." Feng Ma couldn't wait to ask Hongyun as soon as he sat down.

“It was the Spanish who came to us because their Kingdom of Spain was not dealing with the United States, so they chose to enhance our strength.

It's not that they have any special treatment for us, they just want to cause trouble for the Americans. "

In this regard, the leader of the Hongyun clan told the truth. After all, the relationship between the several ethnic groups is still very reliable.

"These white people really don't have any good intentions, but they just benefited us."

In the eyes of Indians, the Kingdom of Spain is no different from countries such as Britain and the United States.

"Indeed, but in the future, the US government will definitely increase its offensive against us, and we must be prepared for this in advance."

"Let the soldiers collect the weapons of the tribesmen who died in the battle, and then keep the rifles and bullets of the Americans."

In this regard, the leader of the Hongyun tribe said solemnly that even though the Americans had very few bullets left, they were still a great help to the Indians.

The American counterattack is inevitable, so we must seize the time and gather all the forces we can.

In 1876, the 1600th anniversary of the founding of the United States, American troops were wiped out at home, which would definitely cause a major repercussions.

In the original history, because Americans had difficulty finding the elusive Indians, they directly hunted bison in North America in an attempt to deplete the Indians of supplies.

The cold winter and food shortages caused the Indian rebellion to be extinguished the following year.

After everyone collected the Americans' equipment and rations, they dispersed in all directions. The Indians' battlefields always have favorable terrain.

After Felipe, the liaison officer of the Kingdom of Spain, learned the news, he quickly reported the news to the country. He did not expect that the Americans would be defeated so quickly.

Colonel Custer's messenger arrived earlier in Helena, the Montana territory, which is now the capital of Montana.

"Sir, there is an emergency report!" The messenger hurriedly came to report.

"What happen to you guys?"

"Colonel Custer's army is probably in danger. We were ambushed by Indians on the Little Bighorn River. The enemy had a large number of muskets. I don't know where they came from."

"what?"

…………

The news was passed layer by layer, directly to U.S. President Grant.

After all, 1600 American soldiers were killed, which can be said to be the largest loss suffered by the American army after the end of the Civil War.

"Is there still no news about who provided them with assistance?"

President Grant was so angry that he asked the secretary next to him.

Of course he knew that except for the British in northern Canada, other countries simply did not have the ability to send equipment to the Indians all the way.

But really let him, without evidence. Just blaming the British and causing trouble for them is like lighting up the toilet - courting death.

After all, the burning of the presidential palace in 1814 is still in their minds.

"Send reinforcements immediately, convict all local Indians of treason, and tighten border defenses. We can no longer allow the British to easily send supplies in."

The disastrous defeat of the US military cannot be concealed for long. Once the news gets out, it will inevitably cause a huge reaction across the country.

The action of purging Indians will definitely be recognized by most people in American society.

…………

At this time, Alfonso, who was far away in Madrid, also received news of the Indians' victory, and this was the purpose of Harrison's visit to the Royal Palace in Madrid today.

The good days of the Indians will not last long, and the U.S. government will never allow the native Indians to run wild on them.

It is absolutely impossible for the Indians without sufficient supplies and weapons to shake the dominance of the U.S. government.

After all, until now, these Indians don't even have a piece of land that they truly belong to. The Spanish and British might give them more aid, but the Americans, who were already prepared, would make it much more difficult.

After all, the Indians are just a means to increase casualties for the Americans. Whether for survival or profit, they will faithfully complete the mission assigned by Britain and Spain.

Once they lose the support of the British Empire and the Kingdom of Spain, they will be eaten up by the US government in an instant.

So Alfonso didn't care whether the American Indians lived or died. The next attack by the US government is the issue that Alfonso really deserves to pay attention to.

"Sir Harrison, the Indians wiped out 1600 U.S. Army troops in the west. I think this will seriously embarrass them in the international community."

Alfonso mocked the weak U.S. Army mercilessly.

Even if the Kingdom of Spain provided weapons and equipment to the Indians, they were defeated by the Indian natives, which would still be ridiculed by the European powers.

In the original history, Italy's army was defeated by Ethiopia's black uncle. Even though Uncle Hei's equipment was not bad, Italy was still ridiculed by European countries and couldn't hold his head up.

Of course, the same was true in World War II. The selfish army would always refresh people's understanding of the lower limit of the army.

…………

"The U.S. Army is nothing more than a group of guerrillas. Even the native Indians equipped with the equipment of the Spanish Kingdom cannot defeat them. It seems that their Monroe Doctrine is a joke."

In this regard, Harrison did not hesitate to make fun of Americans.

After all, the British had not experienced the Boer War. So when I laugh at it, there is no psychological pressure at all.

"The lesson learned this time should make them recognize their identity and take back their hands that they shouldn't have stretched out."

"I think it's time for us to add fuel to the flames and make the Americans lose face in the international community."

Alfonso winked and looked at Harrison with a smile on his face.

"That's what you meant, Your Majesty!"

Harrison bowed respectfully, and the two reached a consensus on this.

…………

The next morning, major media outlets in the United States received the news.

"What? The 1600-man U.S. Army was wiped out by Indians in Montana?"

"What? The main force of the U.S. Army was defeated by the Indians?"

"What?……"

The major media in the United States were instantly detonated. Newspaper headlines were blackened and bolded, and the news of the total annihilation of the US Army was dominated.

This is the most explosive news since the end of the American Civil War. Countless white Americans even doubt the authenticity of this information.

The U.S. Army is a white army anyway, so how could it be wiped out by the native Indians?

And with the silence of the US government on this matter, public opinion from the outside world has been aroused.

This incident has escalated to the point where all people in the United States are demonstrating and demanding that the government tell the truth.

On October 10, the US government issued a notice.

Although the fact that they were wiped out was not stated, the news that 15000 American soldiers were sent out for revenge seemed to confirm the authenticity of this incident.

Countless Americans are even more angry about this. The taxes they pay are no lower than those in European countries. Coupled with the recent whiskey house corruption case, the American people are even more angry.

This is the 100th anniversary of the founding of the United States. The corruption of the U.S. government and the disastrous defeat of the U.S. military have made the white people in the United States so angry that they fell to the ground.

…………

Different from the angry expressions of the American media, people in European countries were completely laughing. Can you believe that 1600 white people were wiped out by the indigenous people?

Major European media not only ridiculed the combat effectiveness of the US military, but even warned their own people to take this as a warning.

The Spanish newspaper Globo even openly stated:

“The Americans have shown us the limits of our military, which is different from the excellent performance of our Spanish army.

Even though the U.S. army had an absolute advantage, it was still completely annihilated by the native Indians. It was really embarrassing for us as white people.

In this regard, we are still proud of the performance of our Royal Spanish Army! "
