Chapter 157: Get Out
Perez was annoyed by Zapata's direct statement of his thoughts, and he looked at Zapata and said, "I'm here to rescue our Mexican friend, do you understand what I said?" Also, tell your local idiot friends to get out of there immediately. Otherwise, it will get in my way, and I will make them not see the sun tomorrow. ”
Zapata looked at Perez and said, "I... That's what I told them? ”
"Yes. That's it. Perez said as he walked over to his car, pulled the door open, looked at Zapata and said, "Don't change a word." I said Zapata, you need to know which side you are on. After speaking, he looked at the people around him: "Immediately do what I just said and start acting." ”
Seeing Perez say this, Zapata looked back at his subordinates behind him expressionlessly and said, "Divide half of the mortar and ammunition you brought with you and let them take them away." The others got on the bus and we went southeast of the city. After watching his men get busy, Zapata returned to his car, took out the phone he had with him, and quickly pressed a number. A moment later, Barletta's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"You've finally arrived. Hurry up and bring the cannon up. I'll be able to deal with these Yankees right away. Barletta said eagerly.
"Alright, stop pretending, you bastard. If you're fighting the Yankees desperately, can you answer my call so quickly? Zapata cursed and then said, "Bad news for you." You've been left behind, and you're going to deal with the Yankees here with that Mina idiot. ”
"Okay." Barletta didn't seem to care, and he replied and continued, "What about you?" Where are you going? To rob Mexicans? ”
"Pretty much." Zapata sighed and said, "I said you should be serious. The Yankees are clearly on their way to the Mexicans as well. If you're here to fight passively, Perez won't bypass you. ”
"Huh. I'm so scared. Barletta said jokingly and then thought for a moment, "I'm not going to do it." I'm old and I want to go home. ”
"What do you want to say?" Zapata frowned and said, "If you have any ideas, just say it." Hurry up, I'll be going southeast with the others in a moment. Who knows what it's like there? Maybe this will be the last call for the two of us. ”
"I mean, shouldn't we have a pension too?" Barletta whispered.
Zapata did not immediately answer when he heard this, but fell silent. After a moment of silence, he said, "If Perez gets the money... ”
"Come on." Barletta didn't wait for Zapata to finish before interrupting, "Rely on him? Now the whole partisan army is no longer reliable. In this way, it will not take a few years for the guerrillas to be finished. You know that. ”
"And what do you want? Also go to rob Mexicans? Zapata said with a disdainful laugh.
"What else can you do? Otherwise, you can only rob Perez. Today he collected a large sum of money. Barletta said.
Zapata put away his smile and said, "Listen, I understand what you said. But there are some things you can't do. Do you understand? Think about how to deal with the Yankees. I've got to go, remember not to think about it, think about the kids who are following you. That's it. ”
With the adjustment of the combat objectives of the guerrillas. The pressure on John's side suddenly decreased. After all, the left Barletta was just a person who couldn't do anything. So John and Quintero quickly led the other to distance themselves and successfully retreated to the Crystal Avenue.
Here, instead of immediately continuing south along the road, John treated the wounded in a shop. At the same time, he needs to find out the other party's intentions and movements at the moment. There must be a reason why the other party reduced the intensity of the pursuit so quickly. He had to figure it out as soon as possible, or he would probably fall back into passivity later.
"Sir. They didn't catch up. "After a Colombian came running over to report. Quintero looked at John and said, "These guys suddenly don't want to fight?" ”
John shook his head slightly and said, "They probably think it's a waste of time to deal with us people here. I want to focus on something more important. ”
"What's the matter? Do you want to go to the next intersection there? Concentrate on taking there? Quintero asked.
"Maybe. So far, it's still in our hands. The guerrillas have nothing to do with my people. They must have realized that the key is there, and that if they can take it, they can trap us in the city again. John said this, but his tone was uncertain. He thought for a moment and said, "Anyway, let's lean over there first." We can't afford to waste time here. ”
At the same time that John withdrew, Megan and the others, who were heading south along Crystal Avenue, had already successfully left the city. On the way, they naturally encountered nothing. It's just that the people I met have no interest in the people who are busy going out of the city at the moment. Because these people are also busy rushing out of the city. Such a scene makes Meghan nervous and very strange at the same time.
As soon as they left the city, they turned off Crystal Avenue and into a dark path on the side of the road, pulling over. They had to wait here for the people behind them to follow, especially John. Although I don't know what the whole situation is now, I see that there are people with all kinds of guns and groups of people heading south from time to time, even a fool knows that the situation outside is becoming more and more complicated at this moment.
"What are these people going to do?" Diego in the car asked nervously as he looked at the situation on Crystal Avenue.
Megan didn't make a sound, just rolled down the window glass and listened to the gunshots coming from time to time outside. Lance spoke, "They seem to be doing something." Assembling to the south. But for now, it's clear that they're not targeting us. ”
"How is that possible?" Aruas on the side said: "My people can tell me that Hernandez has released a reward, and he will give money if he catches or kills the Yankees." I think I told you about that. ”
"Herein lies the problem." Meghan closed the window glass after listening to the gunshots outside, and said, "Now Hernandez is finished." They may also know the news, so naturally they don't have time or need to deal with us. ”
"So what are they doing? According to what you said, they should pack up and go to bed now. Diego asked.
Meghan shook her head and said, "The direction they might go is Hernandez." Maybe there's something going on there. It's just that from the current point of view, the battle is still inside the city, and nothing seems to have happened outside the city. ”
