Super Chief

Just when Shixiong and Major Fogg had a very happy conversation, in the peninsula far southeast of the New World, known as "Florida" by the Spaniards, several Spaniards were sitting and discussing with several local aboriginals.

It can be seen from their clothing that the status of these Spaniards is not low, and those indigenous people are the leaders of some tribes, and there is even a guy wearing colorful feather headdress-able to wear colorful feather headdress. In the custom of North American Indians, there is only one chief of the tribe.

The subsequent naming of Florida, the United States, is a very pure Spanish naming.

In 1512, the Spaniard Juan Pence de Leon led his fleet across the vast Atlantic Ocean and finally came to this beautiful peninsula. And when Juan came to Florida, it happened to be Easter that year, and that day was Sunday again.

Such a day was called "pasuaflrida" in Spain at the time, meaning "flowering day", so at that time Juan named this peninsula that Europeans had never set foot on "flrida", and then this name has always been Continued until it became Florida...

Even in the middle of the eighteenth century, before the Battle of Trafalgar, Spain was still the well-deserved hegemon of Europe, and no one in the Atlantic dared to provoke it.

However, the Spaniards did not occupy North America. After occupying South America and Central America, their sphere of influence in North America was only limited to the Gulf Coast generation. Florida is also the inherent sphere of influence of the Spaniards.

In Florida, there is also a relatively large tribe, the Semino tribe.

In fact, the Seminos, like the Yuchis, were separated from the powerful Cree tribe, but the Seminos separated from the Cree tribe earlier, and they occupied the more prosperous Florida. The peninsula, so the Semino people have developed very well over the years. They have formed a tribe with their own culture and social system.

The Seminos occupy the Florida Peninsula, so they can deal with the Spaniards and the British for a long time. They not only do business with the Spaniards, but also with the British, as to whether they have business with the French, Germans, and Dutch. There are also Portuguese trades, which is not known.

However, in terms of the temperament of the Seminos, it is estimated that they will not miss such a good opportunity. After all, the position that Florida occupies is really great.

Because of long-term business dealings with European colonists, Semino people were more open-minded. In this era, they are even taking in a large number of black slaves who escaped from the plantation, thus forming a group of "Black Seminos".

To put it bluntly, the Seminos are actually a group of clowns with no standpoint. Whoever gives more benefits, they will not hesitate to favor whom. It is precisely because of this temperament of the Seminos that after the founding of the United States, the Americans launched an encirclement and suppression of the Seminos in the 1920s and 30s of the nineteenth century, after a total of three times for half a century. In the war, the Seminos were finally defeated and deported to the area west of the Mississippi River, and finally into Oklahoma.

Of course, the Seminos were expelled to the west of the Mi River and even into Oklahoma, that would have to wait until a century later. In this age, the Seminos are the indisputable overlords of Florida.

Even the Spaniards turned to the Seminos for help in Florida.

But today, these people get together, obviously it is not the Spaniards who ask for help from the Seminos, but the Seminos want to ask for help from the Spaniards.

"General, our tribe needs your help now. Our mother, the Cree in the north, was captured by the **** Cherokees, and our chief was taken away by the Cherokees. Now. , Those **** Cherokees are rampant on our motherland, we need to drive those **** Cherokees out of that land, we need to rescue our mothers from the Cherokee rule come out."

In a large room in a Spanish fortress near Jacksonville, the current Semino chief Omara said with an anxious look on his face to a 50-year-old Spaniard sitting in front of him.

Judging from the epaulettes on the Spanish costume and the medals pinned on the chest, this is a Spanish rear admiral and a nobleman.

The fortress they were talking to was located on the bank of the St. Johns River not far from Caroline Castle.

In 1645, more than a hundred years ago, the French took the lead in establishing a colony on the banks of the St. Johns River, with the Caroline Castle at its core. But then the Spaniards extended their tentacles here. They defeated the French and destroyed Caroline Castle. This area fell into the hands of the Spaniards.

In that era, the French did not dare to provoke the powerful Spaniards, and the French could only swallow their anger about the fact that Caroline Castle was destroyed.

Although Caroline Castle was destroyed, the Spaniards did not let go of this rich land. The Spaniards rebuilt a military fortress not far from the ruins of Caroline Castle, and then firmly controlled this area, making it one of the few bridgeheads that the Spaniards can control in the New World of North America.

In order to protect this place, the Spaniards even sent a fleet to garrison here, and the highest commander is the 50-year-old Spanish man opposite Chief Omarah.

His name is Celeste Carlos, and he is a major general in the Royal Spanish Navy.

Major General Carlos faced Omala’s request and did not directly agree to it. Instead, he smiled and asked: "My dear Chief Omala, it’s not impossible for our Spanish Royal Army to be dispatched~www.readwn.com~ But you know, once our army is dispatched, the logistical supplies can be very large, and this is not Central and South America, this is Florida, our logistics does not have much advantage here, so... "

Major General Carlos's left index finger tapped rhythmically on the table, adding a touch of tension to the negotiation.

"This is easy to say! Food, drinking water, including the necessary guides, our tribe can be responsible!" Chief Omarah said simply, "Furthermore, I can allow your troops to continue to station north afterwards, even if you wish. , The southern foot of the Blue Mist can be the area where your troops are stationed. And our people will start more transactions with you!"

"Is this true?" Major General Carlos's eyes squinted slightly.

"Of course it is true! What I said has never broken my promise!" Chief Omara said very positively, "Of course, I need your army to drive all the **** Cherokee people to the north of the Blue Mist. ...Um...If there are some disobedient people in my mother clan, I also hope that they can disappear..."

A look of disdain flashed in Major General Carlos's eyes, but he still smiled and nodded vigorously.
