Chapter 454: Grant's Wrath

Whether Xue Fucheng and Chen Hai saw the newspaper, at this time, Grant and Lincoln had also gotten the news.

It's just a few days ago that Grant got a telegram from the U.S. Embassy, which was earlier than the news in the newspaper, but Grant and Lincoln were employing people, where did they dare to let Guo Ye know about the domestic war situation? Let him know that he still hasn't hurry up and return to the country to quell the rebellion?

Yes, Grant and Lincoln desperately suppressed the spread of the news, but the paper couldn't keep the fire after all, and after only a few days of cover-up, the news was still transmitted.

Grant rubbed his temples with a headache, now Guo Ye has just started to assist him in the battle, he and the group of proud soldiers under him are really not covered, they are definitely powerful enough, and they are absolutely indispensable combat power to complete the unification war!

However, the news has already spread, what if the Qing court recruits Guo Ye to return to China?

At this time, Lieutenant General Riley returned to Washington and reported to Grant on the encirclement of the Rangers.

"What? No, Riley, you're one of America's most famous generals! Mobilized five brigades of troops and even let one of the opposing cavalry brigades run away, in order to ensure the annihilation of the rangers, I have specially mobilized a brigade for you as a backup! How exactly do you do it? ”

Riley smiled bitterly: "General, I'm really ashamed, this matter is really not a few of our infantry brigades, a brigade under General Guo Ye stubbornly withstood the attack of a cavalry brigade for more than four hours, so that the rangers could not cross the thunder pool half a step, but the red-eyed rangers suddenly changed the direction of attack and were attacked by the east, and in just twenty minutes, the position of the 21st Brigade was broken through by the rangers, and it was impossible to resist the impact of others at all......"

"You still have the face to say? Guo Ye's brigade is a recruit who has just been formed. What about yours, all four brigades have been formed for more than a year! If someone can hold on alone for four hours, you can hold on for twenty minutes? ”

Grant growled.

"It seems that Guo Ye's second brigade has no artillery to help, only some Congreve rockets......"

Riley replied.

Grant slammed a cup on the ground and roared, "Give me orders." Train hard, train to the death, specially, the face of the Federation Army has been thrown into you! ”

Riley snorted: "General Grant, no matter what, we also inflicted heavy losses on the Rangers, the Rangers suffered heavy casualties of more than four thousand people, and we have finally lived up to our mission. The Rangers will definitely not be attacking us anytime soon. ”

Grant's face looked a little better, it was finally a victory, better than a defeat, fortunately, although the rangers broke through, they only ran more than a thousand people after all, and they could no longer continue to threaten their rear, but Riley's next words made Grant fall into a rage.

"General Grant. This is not the most shameful thing for us, the most humiliating thing is. After Chen Hai dealt with the rangers, he turned his gun and attacked the reinforcements of Edgar's department behind him, and in just two hours, he beat Edgar's two regiments to the ground, and finally even Edgar was captured alive......"

Grant was shocked, Chen Hai? This guy is amazing!

"Still. Unfortunately, in order to save face, I also ordered the 19th Brigade and the 21st Brigade to advance to complete the encirclement of Edgar's department, and then the 20th Brigade attacked from behind. Mistaking Chen Hai's Second Brigade for the Edgar Division, he launched a surprise attack, Chen Hai was caught off guard, suffered a big loss at once, and hurriedly responded to the battle, as a result, as a result, Edgar took advantage of the gap between the Second Brigade to respond to the battle, and all the staff rioted, and almost all of them escaped from the encirclement of the Second Brigade......"

"No, no! My God! It's not true, I have such stupid subordinates, oh my God! Riley, I'm going to be killed by you! ”

Grant kicked the table next to him to pieces, he had never lost his temper so much in his life!

Just now, just now, Shi Dakai's telegram to reoccupy Anhui was sent to the United States, I am afraid that it will not be long before the Qing Dynasty's will to summon Guo Ye to return to the country will arrive, because without Guo Ye, the Qing Dynasty army will definitely not be able to defeat Shi Dakai, and even the most elite Hunan army has been defeated by him, with heavy casualties! If you want to exterminate Shi Dakai, there is almost only one way to recall Guo Ye!

I'm worried about how to keep Guo Ye now, now it's okay, Riley has given himself such a big problem! Is that Guo Ye the one who is willing to suffer? Even President Lincoln was tied in front of him, let alone let him stand on his feet now?

Riley was frightened by the angry Grant and his face was ashen and sweating profusely, although he had known that Grant had a bad temper, but it was rare to have such a big temper!

"General,"

Riley stammered: "I have apologized to General Chen Hai in person for this matter, severely punished Hilton and da Gama in front of General Chen Hai, and obtained his forgiveness......"

Grant said hatefully: "What did Chen Hai say? ”

Riley replied: "General, Chen Hai replied that he could give up the investigation of this matter, but he must report it to General Guo Ye and ask for disposal......

I'll go......

Grant was speechless, "Riley, are you so stupid?" Chen Hai has given up the investigation for the time being, once he tells Guo Ye, with Guo Ye's character of retribution, do you think this matter is over? You've caused us and the federal government a huge problem! The whole situation of the civil war could be completely ruined by a few of you stupid generals! ”

Riley stammered and asked, "General, general, won't you?" As a commander-level general, Guo Ye should at least be broad-minded......"

Vast fart!

Grant said hatefully, "Have you forgotten? It was because Guo Ye saw that the Americans had abused ******** women, that he had already fallen out and almost occupied Richmond! Tell me, you killed one or two hundred people of Guo Ye's Second Brigade in one go, can it spare you? ”

This one......

Grant didn't wait for Riley to speak, and then shouted: "Immediately send an order to remove the Hilton Nineteenth Brigade from the post of Commander, and remove da Gama from the post of Commander of the Twenty-first Brigade, with the rank of captain; Riley, remove you from the post of Chief of Staff of the Fourth Army, and demote your rank to brigadier general! Immediately get out of the way to Richmond and apologize to Guo Ye and his soldiers! Hopefully, there will be a turnaround in this matter......"
