Super Chief

After the arrival of the European era of great navigation, there was once a sentence that won the recognition of senior figures in European powers-naval warfare is a bottomless pit of money, and land warfare is a bottomless pit of human life!

　　 The four-year battle of Gibraltar that took place, whether it was a naval or land battle.

　　 Although the British can rely on strong fortresses to avoid casualties as much as possible, in order to feed the British defenders of the Gibraltar Fortress, the main force of the Royal Navy had to fight hard with the French combined fleet.

　　 The combined French fleet that besieged the fortress of Gibraltar is dominated by the Spaniards. The Royal French Navy only plays a supporting role. Its main fleet is still cruising in the Atlantic Ocean to intercept supplies from the United Kingdom to the New World of North America.

　　This kind of strategy is undoubtedly very correct, because it can prevent the British Royal Navy's main fleet from being cloned.

　　 For the British, the 13 colonies of the New World in North America and the Fortress of Gibraltar are the fish and bear's paws in front of them.

　　 Both British people want it, but the problem is that the War of Independence and the offensive and defensive war in Gibraltar greatly consumed the British treasury. The United Kingdom, which has just ended the Seven Years War and not even 20 years ago, has not even replenished its national treasury. An independent war broke out, which was no worse than the consumption of the Seven Years War, followed by the more money-consuming Gibraltar Fortress. The offensive and defensive war broke out.

　　 The pound sterling in the British man’s pocket is already stretched, and if this continues, the British will really become a thumbing-down booger—it's hard to hold on!

　　 Therefore, under such circumstances, the British must make a choice between fish and bear's paw.

　　 There can only be one between the 13 colonies in North America and the Fortress of Gibraltar!

For this reason, high-level meetings are held in the Palace of Westminster in London almost every day, and the third king of the Hanover dynasty, George III, also sits almost every day in the Palace of Westminster, paved with red velvet, gold silk and Diamonds are decorated and placed on the throne inlaid with a Gothic canopy on the highest part of the upper house of the parliament, to discuss related matters with the high level of the kingdom.

　　Sometimes the senior members of the British parliament will be called by George III to his palace, which is the Buckingham Palace of the later dynasty.

　　 In short, at this time, the United Kingdom is the most powerful country on the European continent, but at this time they are also in dire straits.

　　 No matter how strong the UK is, there is no way to single out half of Europe. And this time is also different from the past, the powerful Britain has already made the whole of Europe start to fear, so now no European powers are willing to help Britain.

　　 There are no permanent enemies, only permanent benefits!

　　 For the benefit of their own country, the European powers are very willing to see the powerful British have a big somersault. It would be even better if they were to fall back from then on.

　　 Britain, deep in the center of the whirlpool, and King George III of England naturally understand the current situation.

　　 They don’t want to be reduced to second-rate European countries like Spain and the Netherlands because of these two wars. Britain still wants to maintain its position as the top power in Europe. But in order to maintain this position, Britain must choose between the 13 colonies in North America and the Fortress of Gibraltar.

　　 In fact, at this time, George III had already given up on the thirteen colonies in North America, which had fought the independence war for eight years.

　　 Sitting on the throne, George III looked at the clamoring members of the deputies below, and suddenly his thoughts drifted to another aspect.

　　 The eight-year war has destroyed the Thirteenth Colony in ruins. Even if Britain finally wins the War of Independence, if the Thirteenth Colony is to be restored, it still has to wait until the year of the monkey.

　　 Not to mention the news collected from the thirteen colonies, in the midwestern part of the vast continent, a more powerful Indian tribe emerged.

　　 The horror of that Indian tribe, even George III was shocked. Especially the three short and fierce unilateral massacres that took place in the Chesapeake Bay made George III feel deeply afraid of this powerful tribe.

　　 By the way, that powerful Indian tribe actually sat firmly on the Diaoyutai during the War of Independence, which made George III feel that the "Yanhuang tribe" was unusual.

　　 George III knew very well that with the force displayed by the Yanhuang tribe, if they wanted to regain the thirteen colonies in North America, then Britain would have no resistance at all. Even if Britain pulls France, Spain, the Netherlands, and Prussia, it is probably not the opponent of the Yanhuang tribe in that vast land.

　　 The vast Atlantic Ocean is a natural barrier for that tribe!

　　 Although the Yanhuang tribe is now showing enough friendship with Britain, who knows the final thoughts of that tribe?

　　 In case... if that tribe intends to take back the thirteen colonies, even if Britain eventually wins the war, it will not be able to resist the attack of the Yanhuang tribe.

　　 Thinking of this, George III couldn't help but shudder.

　　 Another thing is that even if it loses the 13 colonies in North America, Britain still has East India and many colonies in Africa. And thirteen years ago, in 1770, a new colony, New Wales, was established on that huge continent in the Pacific...

　　 When George III, whose thoughts continued to wander, thought of the new colony named New Wales by the lovely Captain Cook, he couldn't help but put a smile on his face, but he sighed immediately.

　　 In 1768, the ninth year of George III's accession to the throne, George III personally appointed James Cook as the captain of the Endeavour and ordered him to explore the Pacific Ocean.

　　 As a result, the famous Captain Cook did not disappoint King George III. He not only established a settlement in New Zealand, but also established a colony of New Wales on the continent to the west of New Zealand.

When Captain Cook returned to England in 1771~www.readwn.com~ Because of his great achievements, King George III even directly promoted this Captain Cook from a lieutenant to a lieutenant colonel, and Captain Cook was also affected by it. Personal commendation from George III!

　　 Later, the Captain Cook explored the Pacific twice in a row, but unfortunately, when he explored the Pacific for the third time, the legendary captain was beaten to death by a group of natives in Hawaii...

　　 If it weren’t for the death of Captain Cook at the hardest time of the War of Independence, or the year Spain declared war on Britain, George III really wanted to send a fleet to kill all the natives in Hawaii.

　　 "It's a pity..." George III mourned that Captain Cook who was very fond of his taste in an inaudible voice, and then his thoughts returned to normal.

　　The parliamentarians below are still quarreling, and they said they would abandon the fortress of Gibraltar and preserve the thirteen colonies.

　　 Anyway, the turbulent flow made George III feel very annoyed.

　　 He coughed vigorously, and the lower part suddenly became quiet.

　　George III stood up, looked at the members of the assembly below, and then said in a low voice: "I have decided that starting today, we must mobilize most of our forces. We must keep the Gibraltar Fortress..."
