Legacy of the Sabretooth

After several days of trekking, Victor and Brooke's 14th Militia Regiment arrived at their destination: Henry Family Mountain.

They were assigned to Major William Barry, commander of Union artillery on Henry Family Hill, and were tasked with guarding the Union artillery stationed there.

Their opponent was the Virginia 33rd Regiment on the left flank of Thomas Jackson's 1st Virginia Brigade of the Confederate Army.

Then the pig teammate syndrome of the Northern Army was committed again, and the artillery commander, Major Barry, saw that the uniform of the enemy 33rd Regiment was a dark blue jacket and trousers, thought it was a friendly army, and ordered to stop firing the artillery.

As a result, the 33rd Regiment broke through the outer defenses of the artillery positions without much effort and took away the artillery belonging to the Union Army.

Realizing that he had made a big mistake, Major Barry had no choice but to ask for support from the 14th Regiment, while the 14th Militia Regiment of Brooklyn, which had just arrived at Henry Family Mountain, was engaged in a battle with the cavalry of Colonel Stuart of the Confederate Army.

Previously, the cavalry of the Confederate Army, led by Colonel Stuart, had already routed the 1st Minnesota Regiment of the Union Army. If he crushed the Fourteenth Militia Regiment in Brooklyn again, he would be able to completely crush the flank of the Union Army.

Therefore, after receiving a request for help from Major Barry, Alfred Wood could only ask Victor to lead his company to support first, and said: The Fourteenth Regiment of Brooklyn will arrive soon, and we will not abandon any of our brothers.

Victor put on his blue military cap and led his 100 men out of Manassas-Sudre Road.

When he came to the artillery position of Henry's family mountain, he found that his artillery was being driven all over the mountains by the 33rd Regiment of the Southern Army.

And the artillery that originally belonged to the Union Army had fallen into the hands of the 33rd Regiment of the Southern Army, and they were turning their muzzles and preparing to fire at the Union Army.

Seeing this, Victor had no choice but to rush up the hill with his 100 men and begin to attack the artillery positions that had fallen into the enemy.

Victor was at the forefront of the charge as always, and the standard-bearer behind him held the fluttering Star-Spantied Banner to indicate the direction of the charge.

The 33rd Regiment, which had been attacked by surprise, was taken by surprise, and Victor rushed into the local artillery position with a bayonet in his hand.

All the soldiers of the Confederate Army who stood in his way were like scarecrows in training, who were killed by him or smashed in the head with the butt of their rifle.

In such hand-to-hand combat, Victor's beastly instincts and superhuman reflexes can help him easily avoid enemy attacks.

Under his leadership, M Company quickly tore through the 33rd Regiment's defenses and recaptured two cannons. The rest of the artillery was blown up during the hasty retreat of the 33rd Regiment.

This is the flaw of insufficient manpower, although Victor has broken the morale of the enemy, but his manpower is not enough to recapture and control all the artillery.

During this period, he also suffered a lot of cold shots, and then made many shooters of the Southern Army doubt their marksmanship, obviously he should have been hit, and it was two shots, shouldn't it be double the happiness? Why does it feel like it's off target? Why is that?

Although Victor temporarily routed the 33rd Regiment of the Southern Army with the advantage of the surprise attack, he simply did not have enough troops to defend such a large artillery position.

He had no choice but to ask his men to gather the scattered artillery of the Northern Army, set up the two captured cannons, and fire at the 33rd Regiment of the Southern Army, which had already launched a counterattack.

And he himself led the boys of M Company to build a defensive line at the front of the artillery position, holding on to it. The disadvantage in numbers soon became apparent.

It didn't take much effort for the 33rd Regiment to storm Victor's defensive positions and engage them in a hand-to-hand battle. At this critical moment, the Fourteenth Brooklyn Militia Regiment, led by Colonel Alfred, arrived.

They had routed the cavalry of the Confederate Army under Colonel Stuart, and had left the Manassas-Sudre Road to come to their aid in their 'Grey Brothers' Company: Victor M Company.

During the days of the march, these young men in red woolen pants won the affection of veterans from the Fifth Cavalry Regiment, and the veterans of the Fifth Cavalry Regiment also used their past achievements and stories to win the recognition of this group of volunteers from New York State.

This time, the courage to attack the enemy forces who outnumbered them was far outnumbered, and the success of recapturing their own artillery positions completely impressed the young men.

It also succeeded in boosting their morale, and the 33rd Regiment of the Confederate Army was routed from the front by the 14th Militia Regiment from Brooklyn.

In the process of fleeing, they were strafed and shelled by the 14th Brooklyn Militia Regiment, and suffered heavy casualties. Even began to storm the positions of the 2nd Regiment of friendly Virginia.

Victor and his boys followed the ass of the 33rd Regiment and rushed into the positions of the 2nd Virginia Regiment of the Confederate Army.

Officers and soldiers, whether in his way, were all knocked down with a bayonet and sent to God with a mending sword, while he himself was almost unscathed.

"Oh my God, he's like a Sabretooth! Rampage through enemy positions and invincible. "

Colonel Alfred, commander of the Fourteenth Militia Regiment in Brooklyn, lamented Victor's bravery.

The 2nd Virginia Regiment, which was dragged down by friendly forces, was quickly torn open by Victor's vanguard company, and then fell into a rout.

This has almost become a law, and the direction of Victor's impact will immediately cause a large number of enemy casualties, and then a gap will be formed, and finally a rout.

When he stormed the line of ordinary soldiers, he was like a tiger entering a flock, with only one-sided slaughter, and almost no threat.

And he is also constantly improving his combat skills through these fights, although it is unilaterally crushed, but the role of training is still there.

For example, how to maximize the efficiency of killing, as well as the attack and grasp of human weaknesses, can be improved through practice. After all, Thanos will die if he is beheaded, right?

Victor's first and most famous nickname, Sabretooth, was born on the battlefields of the Civil War.

Thanks to the efforts of Victor and the Fourteenth Brooklyn Militia Regiment, the left side of the Confederate Army began to show signs of collapse.

Knowing this, General Boregard woke up from his dream that he could crush the right flank of the Northern Army, and began to order the whole army, including the reserves, to go to support the left flank.

In fact, it is really not wrong to say that Borlegard and McDowell are rookies pecking at each other, after all, they are old classmates at West Point.

Forget that McDowell was sold by his own people, and it can only be said that Beauregard was still almost defeated when he was fully aware of the enemy's strategy.

But McDowaugh, an old classmate, was even better than him, and first ordered the Fourteenth Militia Regiment in Brooklyn to repair for two hours after breaking through the two lines of defense on the left flank of the Confederate Army in a row. (In his opinion, labor and management are flying dragons and riding faces, how to lose.) ）

And said: "After this battle, the war is over!" Such a flag is doomed to his next tragedy.

First Thomas Jackson finally arrived, and he led his troops, taking advantage of the gap in the offensive of the Northern Army, quickly moved into the left front and consolidated the position.

The rest of the Confederate Army also took advantage of this opportunity to respite and recuperate, and by the time the Federation Army launched another onslaught, they had recovered from exhaustion.

In the melee, the armies of the two sides were in a mess, and it was impossible to distinguish who was friendly and who was the enemy.

However, the Brooklyn 14th Militia Regiment did not have such troubles, and their distinctive red wool pants made them the most visible presence on the battlefield.

Equally striking was their constant charge, fearless and ferocious tactics, and Thomas Jackson's men suffered heavy losses in the battle with the Brooklyn 14th Militia Regiment.

He called the militiamen with scarlet hats and trousers, blue jackets with lots of gold buttons, and white leggings the red-legged devils.

Whenever the Fourteenth Battalion in Brooklyn began to charge, he would shout at his men, "Steady, boys!" Those red-legged devils are here again! "

At this time, the officer who rushed to the forefront of the red-legged devil was a captain of the Union Army in blue trousers: Victor Clyde.

Of the more than 100 men under his command, 11 were killed, 46 were wounded, and more than 10 were captured and missing. He had almost completely lost his combat effectiveness, so he had to blend in with the other companies' charges.

Colonel Alfred acquiesced to Victor's behavior of abandoning his subordinates and running to charge.

On the one hand, it was true that Company M had lost its combat effectiveness, so he asked Victor's adjutant to lead them back to the rear for repairs.

However, Victor, who was supposed to go with him, volunteered to stay, and Alfred could not refuse the reason he gave: as long as he was there, the troops could tear a hole in any part of the enemy's defense.

He and M Company had become the sharpest knives of the Fourteenth Militia Regiment in Brooklyn, and he himself was the sharpest blade of the knife.

As soon as he rushed into the enemy's position, it was like knocking the firmest iron nail into a place, opening an entrance for the subsequent friendly troops to rush into the formation.

But this time, the Fourteenth Brooklyn Militia Regiment had an adversary: from the Louisiana 1st Battalion (Louisiana Tiger Battalion).

If the Fourteenth Brooklyn Militia Regiment is the best militia regiment of the Northern Army, then the 1st Battalion of the State of Isiana (Louisiana Tiger Battalion) is the best volunteer of the Southern Army.

The collision between the two best units and the battle between the Sabretooth and the Tiger Group are on the verge of a collision.
