Legacy of the Sabretooth

In this way, Victor became a second lieutenant in the army under Lieutenant Colonel Bagley, which is in fact very common in wartime.

When the U.S. military was short of personnel to fight the Seminoles, it would always recruit local immigrants to fight as militia and absorb some of them as regular soldiers.

In fact, the American militia at that time had a familiar name in the 21st century: the National Guard. Although there are still differences in the establishment and chain of command, it is indeed the predecessor of the current National Guard.

And not long after Victor took office, a major event happened that affected the whole United States, in fact, it was already brewing when Republican Lincoln was elected president two years ago.

However, because of the war with the Seminoles, the events went on, but what should have happened finally happened, and the Southern Confederacy began to mobilize troops to the border with the Northern Confederacy.

Although there has not yet been an exchange of fire, war is already on the verge of breaking out. The 5th Cavalry Regiment of the 1st Cavalry Division, to which Lieutenant Colonel Bagley belongs, is an elite unit attached to the Northern Union.

He was transferred to Florida to assist local militia forces in fighting the Seminoles during Florida's Third Seminol War.

It was precisely because of the existence of the Fifth Cavalry Regiment that the last resistance of the Seminoles was also declared a failure, and in front of the elite Fifth Cavalry Regiment, the Seminoles almost fought back.

Whether in terms of discipline or weaponry to numbers, the Seminoles are no longer a match for the American army.

After the complete defeat of the Seminoles, the Fifth Cavalry Regiment withdrew for the most part, but the thousands of men under Lieutenant Colonel Bagley were left to sweep away the remaining sporadic resistance and monitor the movement of the Seminoles.

In fact, Lieutenant Colonel Bagley also has a secret mission, that is, to observe the movements of the state troops in Florida, and if there is any suspicious movement, he must report it to Washington at any time.

And behind the Seminole attack on the town this time, there is actually a local official background in Florida.

They needed one such time to attract the attention of Lieutenant Colonel Bagley and his men in order to achieve their ulterior motives.

While Lieutenant Colonel Bagley was leading his men on the road to hunt down the Seminoles, the Florida army had already completed its assembly and deployment as planned.

At this time, more than a month has passed since Victor fought Crazy Horse, although Crazy Horse has successfully escaped from Ascension with the help of the river.

However, the rest of his subordinates were killed by Victor in the woods where they were fighting, and his almost perfect plan was defeated in the final stages.

And with the help of Victor, Bagley caught the tail of the Seminole tribe that fled Florida.

And pursued all the way, from Florida all the way across Alabama and Mississippi, all the way to Kansas.

After a brief encounter with the opposing forces in Kansas, the Seminoles managed to flee the battlefield after a short encounter with the opposing forces as both sides had no intention of fighting for a long time, leaving behind hundreds of corpses.

Bagley's vanguard retreated several kilometers to await the arrival of the main force, but in the end they waited for an order to withdraw immediately and join the main force.

It turned out that while they were fighting the Seminoles, South Carolina announced its withdrawal from the United States of America and had state forces attack Fort Sumter in Charleston.

In fact, the South Carolina government had already declared its secession from the United States of America before the attack on Fort Sumter, and the federal garrison had secretly evacuated their garrison the same day.

They all ran to Fort Sumter, first of all, it was well fortified and a port, so it was easy to fight or retreat.

However, although they slipped away quickly, their immediate boss was not so powerful, and Lincoln, the president's father, could not make up his mind on the question of whether to fight or withdraw.

He didn't want to carry the pot that fired the first shot of the American Civil War, after all, it could make him stint for thousands of years, although the last war made him famous, but now he didn't know anything about it, did he, after all, he wasn't some Seminole shaman prophet or anything.

So he did something very much in line with his identity, he called senior officials in Washington and held meetings every day to discuss whether to fight or not. Such meetings take more than a month to complete.

The soldiers in Fort Sumter had a big problem when they were in a meeting, and there was no food to eat for so many soldiers.

Because of the large number of garrisons in other places, there was only enough food to eat for about forty days. As for going outside to find food, it is even more unrealistic, and the outside has been surrounded by the Southern Army into an iron bucket.

And Lincoln's boss had been in meetings for more than a month, and when the soldiers in Fort Sumter were about to starve to death, there was another wave of commotion.

He first sent a telegram to the rebellious governor of South Carolina to the following effect: You kid dare to plot to usurp the throne! Grab my territory, and you want to kill my brother! Didn't you take me as a big president in your eyes? I tell you, if you dare to touch my brother's cold hair, I will make your South Carolina pacified.

But he quietly told the navy that went to increase the number of troops, you are going to deliver food this time, and if the other side fires, you can launch an attack and send the arms over, otherwise you will only send food.

Then he sent a secret message to the commander of Fort Sumter, young man, you must be strong, reinforcements will arrive soon, but if you can't hold out, you can surrender.

This contradictory order confuses the commander of Fort Sumter, and then what follows makes him even more angry.

The support that the boss said did come quickly, they brought a lot of food and a lot of munitions, but they were all blocked, and the good food was all liar, and it was even eaten by the navy at sea to show them, and it was not transported to Fort Sumter.

As for why this happened, because the Southern Army only surrounded Fort Sumter, but did not attack, the naval forces of the Northern Army neither dared to attack nor wanted to evacuate.

Then the commander of Fort Sumter watched the navy float and paddle on the sea, and then every day he showed them the food that should have been given to them.

"Damn bastards! Are you our navy or the enemy's workmanship! "

Although he was scolded angrily, he also understood that he was helpless about the current situation, and at this time, the people sent by the Southern Army to persuade him to surrender came again.

His Excellency the Commander made a very important decision after considering his boss's urine and the current situation facing himself and his subordinates, and the general of the Southern Army who came to persuade him to surrender was his former student, so the two sides hit it off and reached a consensus.

First he told the other party that he refused to surrender and that he would fight until the last moment before the food was eaten, and then he told the other party that there was only enough food to eat for more than 30 hours.

And after the other side left, he ordered all the soldiers to take refuge in the permanent fortifications, because the 'attack' of the Southern Army was imminent. Everyone took cover first to avoid the shelling before the attack.

Then, as expected, the commander was clever, and the Southern Army mobilized a large number of artillery and began to shell Fort Sumter, but this shelling lasted a bit long, a full 36 hours.

And during the shelling, the commander of Fort Sumter organized his officers to distribute the only remaining food, saying that they should eat it quickly, eat more, and prepare for battle. If you don't eat it now, you may not be able to eat it in the future.

In this way, the soldiers in Fort Sumter finished their 'last meal' here with a sense of sorrow, and then the officers reported to the commander that they had run out of food.

At this time, the shelling of the Confederate army ceased, and just as the soldiers at Fort Sumter were preparing to fight to the death, the commander told them that, according to President Lincoln's order, when they ran out of ammunition and food, they could surrender to the Confederate army, and the Confederate army would guarantee their safety and let them sail back to the north.

Then they surrendered, and the Confederates kept their promise and let them sail back to the North after disarming them.

And the navy on the warships responsible for transporting supplies happened to eat a lot of the food they transported, freeing up a lot of space for transporting people.

In fact, in the end, there was such a result, because this was the early stage of the civil war, and the two sides had not yet exchanged fire in the real sense, and they had not yet killed the red eye. And they were once colleagues with each other, so there would be such a harmonious situation. And in the later stages of the war, it was completely different ....

And just as the Northern and Southern armies at Fort Sumter were playing tricks, the order to mobilize Lieutenant Colonel Bagley's Fifth Cavalry Regiment to the north-south front was officially passed to Bagley.

And Victor also followed this army to the front line with this army that would be brilliant in the future, and joined this magnificent epic war.

Although the Civil War was delayed by nearly two years because of his arrival, it still happened, and he joined the Northern army by accident.

And in the movie, Wolverine and Sabertooth also joined the Northern Army, yes, that's right, it's the movie where Wolverine and Sabertooth are brothers.

I have to say that sometimes fate is such a coincidence, in fact, Victor didn't want to come here with Bagley to fight in the first place.

However, after making a simple analysis, he finally chose to follow Bagley, because he understood that he alone could not kill the red wolf under the protection of the Sioux and Cheyenne tribal alliances, but the U.S. government and its army could help him, you must know that in real history, the U.S. government almost succeeded in exterminating the Seminoles, and the Seminoles who once spread throughout the Americas were only left with hundreds of thousands of mixed-race descendants, and all he had to do was to have enough connections and voice in the U.S. army after the civil war. You can use the American army to deal with the Sioux and Cheyenne tribes who shelter the red wolf, and as for the red wolf himself, he wants to kill him with his own hands to complete his revenge.

And if Victor wants to use the power of the U.S. government, he needs to gain enough merit and enough status in this civil war that has just started.
