Dodge clicked on the map, and his tone became less angry. He said in a deep voice: "You know what the loss of the Monongahela River means to us."
"Now I need a plan, a warrior to fight the Monongahela River and bring victory."
"Let's move our front forward."
Dodge stretched out his hands, glanced at everyone, stared at them, and said in a deep voice: "Who wants to be this hero now?"
Everyone remained silent, after experiencing several battles with the French army.
The British army suffered a complete defeat. Now let alone fight against the British, they simply don't have the courage.
Dodge's eyes finally fell on George, and he smiled and said: "George, you once led thirty people through the French defense zone. This battle is crucial. You should have such courage."
George's face darkened, as expected.
Is it the same as Green?
I want to eliminate him through a battle.
George almost couldn't control his expression. He looked at Dodge and smiled: "This is what I should do, but I don't know much about the environment of the Monongahela River."
"I need an excellent mapmaker, and I also need the cooperation of our troops."
"You should know that this battle requires a lot of troops."
"I think we need at least 10,000 soldiers. The Monongahela River should be a plain terrain. I need cavalry!"
"We still need artillery."
"With these, I can guarantee that the French team will suffer a defeat there!"
Everyone stared at George blankly, and kept asking Dodge these unacceptable conditions.
They all saw the veins on Dodge's forehead beating, but they had no reason to refute, because what George said was necessary.
Fighting on the Monongahela River required at least 10,000 soldiers.
However, there are currently only 30,000 troops stationed on the British front line. George's request for 10,000 soldiers is equivalent to taking away one-third of the army's strength.
There are also muskets and artillery. These extremely expensive and rare reserves will also be taken away by George.
These are simply unacceptable conditions.
It took a lot of effort for Dodge to swallow back the curse words he wanted to say. He looked at George and said calmly: "Staff George, you may not understand the situation in the army."
"We only have 30,000 troops now. These people still need to defend France from attacking other strongholds. There are simply not too many people available for you to use."
"You know, our current situation is very difficult. The number of soldiers I can give you is up to five thousand, without cavalry!"
"I can give you the artillery, but there are only thirty shells. I can't satisfy you with the rest."
"You know our difficulties."
Dodge said apologetically.
"No!" George responded directly: "With these troops and no cavalry, fighting against the French army will simply lead to death."
"You must at least not give me enough cannonballs, otherwise I will not go to this battle with no hope of victory."
George said forcefully.
Everyone was stunned, not expecting George to directly confront Dodge.
They turned to look at Dodge's face, which turned gloomy, and everyone sneered. Dodge now had absolute say in the army.
If you offend Dodge, you can basically announce that you are saying goodbye to this team completely.
But they all know that in this battle, they are basically going to die.
It was impossible for five thousand men to hold the Monongahela River. Although the French troops were few in number, they had the cooperation of the Indian tribes.
