Sabertooth - Chapter 37

Chapter 37: The Death of Lincoln (2)

In this world, unsatisfactory things are nine out of ten. Conspiracy planners who want to assassinate Lincoln did not expect the Southern League to fail so quickly. To the extent that they haven’t had time to prepare well, the Southern League has already announced its surrender.

“Damn, how could he surrender! We haven’t failed yet! As long as Lincoln died! We still have hope!”

Obviously, the planners were very angry and helpless about Robert’s surrender to the Northern Army. In fact, after the fall of the capital Richmond, Robert Lee still insisted on leading the Southern Army for a period of resistance.

But now Southern Army lost all its logistics and three-quarters of its comrades, morale almost completely collapsed, they really can not fight anymore.

In fact, there was not much suspense at the beginning of the war. But before the war, the Northern Federation had far exceeded the Southern Union states in terms of population, economic strength, and industrial production capacity.

The only advantage of the Confederacy is that they have sufficient preparations for war, the military is of high quality, and they have received assistance from countries such as Britain and France. Therefore, their idea is to fight quickly.

However, although the Southern Army achieved a series of victories under the leadership of famous generals such as Robert Lee and ‘Stone Wall’ Jackson, but in the end did not make a decisive blow, and the strong war potential of the Northern Federation allowed him to come back again.

In the end, after the ‘Stone Wall’ Jackson was killed by Victor, the EFF defeated the Southern Army in Gettysburg, which wiped out nearly one-third of the Southern Army’s strength in one fell swoop.

“Accept the reality, we have failed! However, Lincoln must die! Even if the Southern League no longer exists, then he will be buried together!”

In the end, the unsuccessful Southern League decided to continue the assassination, and they would use this method to complete their ‘revenge’.

And their collaborators within the Federation are obviously more pleased with this. After all, they already have contradictions with Lincoln, and now the threat of the Southern Alliance no longer exists. If someone removes Lincoln, they will become the biggest profiter.

In this way, this ghost of vengeance from the failed Southern League, shrouded its shadow on the head of the Federal President Lincoln, who knew nothing about it.

At this time, ‘Sabertooth Tiger’ Victor and ‘Wolverine’ Logan also encountered a lot of trouble.

In order to ensure the success of the assassination and to prevent Lincoln’s whimsy from being transferred back to Victor, the desperate Southern League remnants actually attacked Victor’s train.

To this end, they also hired the famous robbers in the west at that time: Sundance Kid, known as ‘the first fast gunner in the Western Union’.

In an era where the information is not as developed in the future, there is such a group of people who have successfully stolen a large amount of gold and silver jewelry by various means, and successfully escaped all kinds of siege and became a thief on the famous side.

Sundance Kid is one of them, and one of the best. His marksmanship is worthy of the name. The revolver is like life in his hands.

“Damn it! Everyone got down! Logan! Come with me! We will meet these uninvited guests! Take your claws back, we have to use a revolver! We can’t let too many ordinary people find our powers, otherwise it will cause a lot of trouble!”

Victor, who discovered that the train was about to be attacked, immediately loudly reminded the passengers on the train to lie down to avoid being hurt, and then informed Logan to prepare to solve these ‘overpowered thugs’.

It turned out that Logan had stretched out his claws and was ready to jump out and kill him. Victor saw this and told him that he couldn’t do that.

After all, the vast majority of people in the train are ordinary people. If Logan just showed his claws, Victor estimated that he would be able to make headlines in the local newspaper the next day, and maybe it would spread throughout the country.

In this case, whether it is for Logan or Victor, it will be a lot of trouble, so Victor stopped Logan’s behavior, and then plugged a revolver into Logan.

“Okay! But how to use this stuff?! Let me throw them out and kill.”

Victor apparently ignored the problem that Logan had at this time. Before that, Logan lost a part of his childhood memories because he was stimulated by killing his biological father.

After that with Rose, he has been working as a miner and black fist. He basically has no chance of contacting the firearm. After Rose’s death, he has been living with the wolves until he was brought back by Victor. Pistol (of course, he may have used another pistol … cough).

“Then let me show you how to do it!”

Victor said and then he got up, pulled the hammer, then pulled the trigger and shot a robber, who was very close to the train compartment.

The other robbers backed up in a panic, but immediately reacted and shot back. Then, Logan, who had stood up and tried to shoot, was shot in the face, and squatted down in a hurry.

“Next time, look forward to the time and go out again! It’s also because you are just like me. I’m not afraid of pistol bullets, but I have to be careful. It’s not a last resort. Don’t show our specialities in front of too many ordinary people.”

Seeing Logan squat down, Victor said a few more words. After all, he was responsible for Logan now.

“Okay, I understand! Then you come to get these guys, use your way!”

Obviously, Logan still felt a little uncomfortable about Victor’s inability to use his ability to kill him, but he remembered the fear and disgust of the people around him when he first exposed his bones and claws. More than a gram.

But he thought that finally had the opportunity, now he could kill a few ‘robbers’ to be happy, but the result was stopped by Victor.

But soon he found excuses and opportunities, and Victor was shot. A bullet shot into the window in the side front, hitting Victor’s right shoulder in the vitrification that broke the window, knocking him to the ground.

In fact, it proves that Kid’s reputation as the ‘first quick gunner in the Western Union’ really didn’t blow out. Experts knew if there was one.

However, Kid, who shot down Victor, irritated the panic-carrying ‘Wolverine’ Logan, who crossed the train seat and threw himself out of the window.

“What the hell! Who is that guy?”

Seeing a partner marveled by Logan’s other robbers, who threw down immediately, they were the first to encounter this kind of horse jumping from a train.

Usually they hijack the train to catch up with the locomotive and then threaten the driver to stop the train. The courageous and skilled bandits can hop on the train for this operation.

And they jumped off the train to kill and snatch horses, they saw it for the first time. And the way of killing is not a pistol, it seems to be killed with a dagger or some short weapon.

Because they did not hear the gunshot, they saw that the horse robber stopped struggling to resist after a convulsion, and then was left behind.

“How to ride this thing! I shouldn’t let an animal that can think freely swing up and down in my span!”

Obviously, Logan, who could not shoot, forgot the horse riding he had learned when he was a child. He is now a young child out of touch with society.

Then, the out-of-control horses under Logan’s crotch carried him out of the team and gradually away from the robbers and the train.

“I knew it would be nice if it were that simple! Logan, you really are a troublemaker!”

Victor jumped off the train while thinking, grabbing a horse and want in the direction of Logan.

“Ah ~! Damn it! How can I stop this damn four-legged animal! Can I kill it!?”

Logan, who is still thrashing, feels that he is going crazy, but his excellent physical fitness and balance ability have prevented him from being off the horse.

“Boom! Boom!”

With two gunshots, Logan turned and found that the two robbers, who had been separated from the robbers group were following him.

“Hahaha! I know! You will definitely come! Let this damn animal stop, but you know, even if you don’t come to help me! I will have a way!”

Victor’s figure appeared in his sight, which made Logan feel a little lucky, and then he said immediately that he could do it.

“I know! So, let’s speed up! These robbers are coming to us! We have to keep them away from the train, then we can do things, and we can avoid people on the train from being affected.”

When he was finished, Victor took a whip on the buttocks of Logan’s horse and chased after Logan’s scolding and shouting.

“Hey! Mike! We need to add money to this sale! The train is already running, and we can’t make any money by killing these two guys! And, several brothers died for this!”

Obviously, the robbers and the ruling party of the Southern League are not monolithic. They are doing this just for money, but at this time the Yankees want them to give up their wealth to kill, and dissatisfaction naturally arises.

“No problem! If you can kill those two guys, I will give you 50,000, no, 100,000 US dollars as a reward!”

“Deal!”

The generosity of the leader of the Confederate Party of the Southern Union was cheered and whistle by the robbers, so they continued to pursue hard, and time to time they shot forward, trying to knock Victor and Logan down.

“Wait, did they stop?”

Over time, the train has long disappeared into the sight of everyone, and the hunters are getting closer and closer to Victor and Logan.

Then, they found out that their pursuit suddenly stopped, and then turned around and dismounted, as if they were ready to face them.

“Can I kill someone this time?”

“Of course, remember, don’t leave them alive, otherwise it will be troublesome.”
