"Everything is for America!" After shouting the slogan in unison, everyone walked towards the town. Not far away, there was a sudden shout from the left front: "Stop, gentlemen, you are not welcome by Brandon! Please leave!"
"Everyone was startled and pulled the bolt of their guns one after another. MacArthur waved his hand and shouted: "Don't get excited", stopping everyone from shooting. Everyone looked around and saw two black guns sticking out of a small wooden house on the roadside.
The barrel of the gun. Including MacArthur, they couldn't help but sweat on their foreheads. This cabin appeared in their sight early, but no one realized that there was anyone hiding inside. As a group of veterans who had spent the rest of their lives in battles, they had just
After experiencing two ambushes, this mistake was really a bit low-level.
"Madam, we are soldiers, the country's regular army. We have no ill intentions," Douglass walked out of the crowd and said loudly: "Can you put away your guns? We are not enemies."
A voice came from the wooden house: "Soldiers? We don't believe in soldiers. There are no men in this town, so if you really have good intentions, please stop!"
Douglas frowned and turned to wink at MacArthur. According to Douglas's understanding, because the women in South Dakota had shown enough hostility to them, if they still wanted to complete the task quickly, they should cut the knot quickly and quickly.
The battle must be decided quickly. And he felt that since the women in the cabin dared to prevent them from entering Brandon, they must be in the same group as the woman who ambushed them before. So, just for the reason of seeking justice for Bleson,
They can then directly use force to solve the problem.
MacArthur pretended not to see his eyes. He took two steps forward and said loudly: "Ladies, I admit that you have the right to hate us. However, as American soldiers, we passed by here and wanted to get some hot water and
Isn’t the food too much?”
"If you are really American soldiers, what you should do now is to return home quickly to protect your wives and children. Don't you know? Without you men around, your wives and children may be being attacked by local gangs
The nuisance caused by elements and gangsters - their life is very difficult! Yes, very difficult!" A sharp female voice, which was obviously not the same style as the female voice in front, sounded, clearly indicating their attitude again.
"Where is the mayor? Where is your mayor? I want to see your mayor!"
"The mayor is also a woman, and she won't see you. If you just want hot water, you can go to the house over there. There are cooking utensils and running water in that house. As for food, I'm sorry, we don't have any extra food in the town -
—”
"General, don't hesitate, just do it!" the second lieutenant who had had an argument with Sidel before said in a low voice. As he spoke, he subconsciously raised the muzzle of his gun.
While MacArthur was hesitating, gunfire suddenly came from the distance in the west.
Alarmed by the sound of gunfire, MacArthur looked to the west. When he passed a row of yards on the west side of the town, he saw many gun barrels protruding from the fence wall of the yard. His face suddenly became very ugly.
"Let's go! Get out of here!" He gritted his teeth, shouted in a low voice, and then took the lead to leave.
"General -" Douglas said dissatisfiedly. Before he could finish his words, MacArthur glared at him. He stamped his feet bitterly and left. The second lieutenant who had an argument with Sidell was the last one to leave. Before leaving, he raised his gun and shot
The wooden house made a shooting posture, and then shouted loudly: "Ladies, just because we are the country's soldiers, we tolerate your disrespect to us. But I promise, this is the last time."
"Could it be Siole and the others?" Douglas asked MacArthur as everyone walked quickly towards the place where the gunshots were heard. After walking a few meters, Douglas asked MacArthur.
"It should be them. Do you know why I chose to retreat? Look carefully at those fences," MacArthur said.
Douglas turned his head and glanced, and the next moment he cursed angrily: "Shit, what do they think we are? General, this is a naked provocation! It's hard for me to tolerate -"
"Okay, let's not say this. We don't have to enter the town. It is not a shame to maintain a gentlemanly manner in front of our female compatriots," MacArthur said, striding forward.
Not far away, the gunfire in front stopped, and then Siole sent back a telegram saying that they had obtained three cars and were heading towards Brandon.
"Could it be that the gunshots just now were caused by Siole and the others?" After seeing the content of the telegram from Io, someone immediately asked this question.
"Ask Siole if they have enough fuel. If there is not enough fuel, we must go back to Brandon," MacArthur thought for a moment and said.
Soon, Siole called back and said that the three cars did not have enough fuel. He also said that they captured a prisoner and learned from the prisoner that there were dozens of cars stored in a warehouse in Brandon.
When later generations of historians analyzed this period of American history, they generally believed that the telegram sent by Sioulay was the trigger for the second American Civil War. They believed that if Sioulay had not informed MacArthur of Bran in the telegram,
There were a large number of cars stored in the registry, so MacArthur might not insist on entering Brandon, and the "Brandon Massacre" would not occur.
MacArthur and his party returned, and as soon as they approached Brandon, they were greeted by firing warning shots. It must be noted that before this, Sirah, the mayor of Brandon and the captain of the Women's Self-Defense Force, received a message from
A call for help from the Sioux Falls Women's Rangers. Yes, it was the Sioux Falls Women's Rangers' vehicle that Siole and the others robbed. The Sioux Falls Women's Rangers were worried that MacArthur and others would attack Brandon, so they rushed to the rescue. As a result, they were
Siolai and others were blocked. Because Siolai and others took off their military uniforms, Katharina, the captain of the Sioux Falls Women's Rangers, mistook them for gun robbers. After she discovered that they were no match for Siolai and others,
, immediately sent people back to Sioux Falls to move reinforcements. The members of the Women's Rangers who stayed behind in Sioux Falls didn't know what was going on and made distress calls everywhere, which happened to alert Silla.
Silla calculated the time and took it for granted that the people who exchanged fire with the Sioux Falls Women's Rangers were MacArthur's associates, so before MacArthur and others approached the town, she ordered a warning shot, and then made a strong announcement when MacArthur asked for dialogue.
They did not welcome the entry of MacArthur and others, and if MacArthur and others ignored the warning and tried to enter by force, they would not hesitate to fight with force.
The attitude of Brandon's women was unprecedentedly tough, and MacArthur was in a dilemma. While he was thinking hard about countermeasures, Siole and others rushed over in three cars.
