Chapter 550: Colonel Alston

Colonel Alvin Alston is the highest military commander stationed in the Detroit Fortress. He also commands the other four military fortresses on the shores of Lake Erie, Lake Ontario, and Lake Huron.

   was able to become a colonel in the Royal British Empire when he was only thirty-one. This was not because of the outstanding military talents of this Colonel Alston, but because he had a good father.

   In fact, the family background of Colonel Alston can be seen from the surname Alston. Because of the surname Auston, it means noble birth in the British Empire.

   Colonel Alvin Alston indeed came from a large noble family, and his father was a real earl.

   It's a pity that Alvin Auston still has great difficulty in succeeding his father's earl title. It can even be said to be impossible, because there are three older brothers on top of him.

Therefore, Alvin Alston wisely chose not to compete with his brothers for the title of Earl of Alston, but when he was preparing to go to university, he chose Sandhurst, who was just established for more than 20 years. The Royal Military Academy, and his choice was also strongly supported by his father, Earl Auston.

Later, after graduation, Alvin Auston entered the Royal British Army directly, and with the support of his father, he developed rapidly in the army. At the age of 30, he had become a member of the Royal British Army. Lieutenant colonel.

   The Alston family has a large industry, and there are many plantations in the thirteen colonies in North America, and the Alston family also has a lot of power in the fur trade.

   During the Seven Years' War, the fur trade of the Auston family in the New World of North America was hit hard, and the subsequent Pontiac uprising almost completely broke the fur business of the Auston family.

   However, as the British began to take over the French turf and gained an overwhelming advantage over the Indians in the Great Lakes region, the fur business of the Auston family began to recover.

  Earl Auston saw the opportunity inside and started to operate.

   In 1771, Alvin Auston, who had just become a lieutenant colonel at the time, was dispatched to the New World of North America by the British army. Of course, as compensation, his rank was once again promoted to become Colonel Alston.

   This year, Alvin Alston just passed his 31st birthday.

   Colonel Alvin Auston was not dispatched to the 13th colony on the east coast, but went directly to the Great Lakes area, becoming the highest military commander of the Detroit Fortress, and the highest military commander of the other four fortresses.

   Colonel Auston knew exactly what he was being sent here for. He didn't come here to fight the local Indians, but to expand the family's fur business.

Therefore, in the four years since taking office, Colonel Auston has had a good relationship with the surrounding Indian tribes. Whether it is Ottawa, Miami, Huron, Elena, or Chippewa, they are willing to sell the fur in their hands. For this gentle Englishman.

   The fur business of the Alston family also developed rapidly after Alvin Alston became the top military commander of the Detroit Fortress. Last year, the Alston family became the largest fur trader in the entire United Kingdom.

   This is inseparable from the hard work of Alvin Alston.

   In order to reward his fourth son, the old Earl Auston even began to operate in the UK to make his fourth son a real general.

   Although the Auston family is very powerful in politics and business, its strength in the military is much weaker. And Alvin Alston's outstanding performance allowed the old Earl Alston to see the hope of the family establishing its own power in the military.

   It's not as good as the sky. Just when the operation of the old Earl Auston was about to be completed, the gunshots of Lexington changed the whole of Britain.

  The scheming Earl of Auston knew very well that if his son participated in the battle between the east and the colonists at this time, it would definitely be a very dangerous thing. On the contrary, if the son is still stationed in the Great Lakes region, it will be much safer.

  Furthermore, although His Majesty the King issued the "Declaration of 1763" prohibiting colonists from continuing to expand westward, the British government and military will never let go of the 13 military fortresses in the Great Lakes that have already been acquired.

   Therefore, under the operation of the Earl of Alston, Alvin Alston continued to stay in the Fortress of Detroit. Then the old Earl of Auston was ready to wait for a significant change in the war, before operating his son to gain military merit near the east coast.

  In the cognition of the Earl of Auston, it is impossible for those hard-working colonists to defeat the powerful Royal Army and Navy. By then, as long as his son has an outstanding performance in a certain battle that is destined to win a big victory, then under the operation of the family, the son's general should not be able to escape.

   Old Earl Alston’s plan, Alvin Alston naturally knew about it a long time ago. He himself didn't want to venture into the battlefield in the east at this time, it was really too dangerous, far better than staying here safely.

   It's a pity, just when Colonel Alvin Alston thought that there could be no enemies here, an Indian native who was so huge that he almost frightened him suddenly came to Detroit fortress.

   Colonel Alston was really scared to pee, because he witnessed with his own eyes how powerful this Cherokee army, called the Second Division of the Grim Bear Army, is. Especially the kind of cannon that can hit miles and can produce violent explosions, it makes Colonel Alston almost think he is hell!

  How could there be such a powerful artillery in this world? And what they actually fired was a flower bomb! This is simply impossible!

   Even though the Detroit Fortress was stationed with a full 2,000 Royal Army of the British Empire, Colonel Auston did not dare to move at all.

The **** staff under his staff wanted to test the intentions of these indigenous people and used pounds to entice more than 20 drunks to attack the indigenous camps~www.readwn.com~ and was unceremoniously directed by the indigenous people. Fourteen killed!

   This kind of toughness made Colonel Alston even more worried and frightened. He was deeply afraid that these Native Americans would level the Detroit Fortress if they disagree!

   After personally giving the order to remove the **** staff, Colonel Alston began to collect all the news about the Cherokee tribe, but the news he received made him even more frightened.

   This Indian tribe that rose in the south-central Appalachian Mountains has almost unified the New World of North America in just ten years! Now they are preparing to wage war against the remaining Indian tribes entrenched in and north of the Great Lakes region. Obviously, this Cherokee tribe is preparing to unify the New World of North America!

   But if they really conquer all the remaining Cherokee tribes, will they expel the British Empire from this continent in the next step?

Although the news that Colonel Alston got is that the kingdom has a good relationship with the Cherokee tribe, and the Ferguson rifle equipped in the army with an effective range of 200 yards is said to have been developed by this tribe, and that A very light grenadier with an effective range of more than six hundred yards was also developed by this tribe. But this does not mean that this tribe will not turn against the empire in the future...

   If that were the case, the Detroit fortress where I was located would definitely become the first batch of targets to be destroyed!

   Now, it is said that the chief of the Cherokee is also here, could it be...

   Colonel Alston suddenly made a decision in his heart!
