At first, Pilar didn't pay attention to it, after all, his chef wouldn't tell him that there were no vegetables to cook today, so he could only nibble on steamed buns, and the chef could only look for these things as much as possible. But a week later, when the cook could no longer find fresh vegetables, Pilar discovered the problem, which had never happened at all, and it was only when Pilar's guards told him about the lack of vegetables throughout the fortress that Pilar realized the seriousness of the situation.

In order to solve this problem, Pilar decided to take the initiative to see if he could get some vegetables from the natives, and in the evening, Pilar sent the natives of his house to climb out of the fortress wall and go outside to find a place to grab vegetables, so as not to find anything when they ran into it.

The servant was so faithful that he ran back to his hometown to look for it, but his family told him that all the vegetables had been bought, not even before the harvest season. The servant was quite clever, and when he had no house left, he searched everywhere during the day, and finally found a large vegetable patch in the area around the south gate of the fortress, and the tomatoes and beans in the field grew very well, and when he saw that no one was paying attention, he secretly picked a large handful, and quietly slipped home, and then climbed the wall again and returned to the fortress at night, and reported the situation to Pilar.

In fact, when the monkeys started to act in the Gundam year, there were dark sentinels around the fortress, especially at night, the dark sentinels had already controlled the way out of the entire fortress, and the servants who went out of the city were always in the sight of the Gundam year, as for the vegetable field, it was the bait specially set aside by the high year, and the tomatoes and beans in the field had already been paid for in advance, so they just waited for Pilar to come out to grab the vegetables, and the preset position had already been arranged, leaving as many Spaniards as possible.

Pilar, who was hiding in the fortress, was already impatient, and when he saw the servant returning, he immediately asked about the vegetables, and the servant told him in detail about the vegetable patch, and Pilar thought that it might be a trap, but even if it was a trap, he had to try it, or the people in the fortress would have gone crazy because of the lack of vegetables. Thinking about it, Pilar planned a self-righteous method, that is, to send some people to grab vegetables, and set aside some people to guard the fortress gates, so as not to be taken advantage of by the enemy.

Since the servant entered the fortress, Gao Nian has been paying close attention to the movement of the fortress, and since the morning the sentry's eyes have never left the binoculars, taking turns to observe the movement of the fortress gate. More than 3,000 people quietly lay in ambush near the vegetable field at the south gate of the fortress, twelve hand-cranked machine guns were firmly staring at the south gate of the fortress, and dozens of small mortars were also targeted here, just waiting for the soldiers of Pilar to come out and grab the vegetables. Pilar is also fighting psychological warfare with Gundam Nian, Gouda Nian is ambushing outside the fortress, Pilar is on the small building at the south gate of the fortress to observe the movement with a telescope, patiently looking for the right time to move, both sides are fighting wits and courage, to see who has the ability to seize the opportunity.

It is the hottest season in South America, and the Ming soldiers who are ambushed outside the fortress have to endure the hot climate and mosquito bites, and can only eat some simple convenience food and drink a little boiled water from morning to noon. Relatively speaking, Pilar's soldiers were indeed free to eat a full meal at the right time, and in this regard, the Spanish soldiers took the initiative.

At about one o'clock in the afternoon, when people were most tired, the south gate of the fortress suddenly opened, and a large number of soldiers quickly rushed out of the fortress, about 2,000 people went straight to the vegetable field, and more than 2,000 people lined up the Spanish phalanx on both sides of the fortress gate, guarding the gate tightly, ensuring that the soldiers who grabbed the vegetables could have the opportunity to return to the fortress.

Gao Nian patiently waited for the opportunity to attack, but waited for half an hour, the soldiers who grabbed the vegetables had almost picked enough tomatoes and beans, seeing that the Ming soldiers did not dispatch, when the Spanish phalanx at the gate of the city was slightly slack, dozens of small mortars were fired at the same time, the battle unfolded instantly, and the gate of the fortress soon became a sea of fire, exploding shells, dense machine gun bullets blocked the gate hole, and the soldiers around the vegetable field began to attack, and the dense bullets and shells all fired at the vegetable field. Pity these Spanish soldiers are full of vegetables, their guns have long been thrown aside, and they rush to the gate of the fortress with the tomatoes and beans that they are reluctant to throw away, all of them are extremely panicked, and they have no courage to fight at all.

The cannons on the fortress began to cover the retreat of the soldiers below, one by one large iron balls and shotguns shot out from the walls of the fortress, the Ming soldiers who already had a preset position did not pay attention to these artillery guns at all, the shotshots could not hit them, the distance was not enough, the big iron balls naturally had trenches to block, it was difficult to roll too far and the lethality was limited, and soon the cannons on three sea ships began to bombard the fortress, and these guns could not be hidden.

When the artillery on the fortress could not cover the vegetable field and the soldiers at the gate of the fortress, the Ming army launched a final attack, and the soldiers holding tomatoes and beans could not resist the pursuing Ming soldiers no matter what. The Spanish phalanx on both sides of the fortress gate could not stop the bombardment of machine guns and *, a small number of soldiers saw the opportunity and retreated into the fortress, most of them stayed outside the gate, the gate of the fortress was quickly closed, and there were very few vegetables that could be recovered, less than a third of the soldiers who went out of the fortress went back, and the rest were explained in this battle to grab vegetables.

Just an ordinary battle to grab vegetables, let Spain lose most of the soldiers, looking at the defeated soldiers one by one, Pilar felt cool and cold, these Ming soldiers are too fierce, it is impossible for them to rush out anyway, the remaining two thousand soldiers can barely defend with a strong fortress, the attack is definitely not good, but it is not possible to go on like this, if there is no rescue from the outside, this fortress will be lost sooner or later. Pilar convened officials at all levels to discuss that they must seek help from outside, it is impossible for Goudal to besiege this fortress, after all, Pilar has been operating here for a long time, not to mention that Goudal does not want to storm this fortress, the purpose is to kill as many Spaniards as possible in the field, so the messenger sent by Pilar ran out and moved to other places to rescue troops.

Paraguay is divided into two parts by a tributary of the Jing River, the west side is a dense forest swamp area with a very small population, and the east is its essence area, where 90% of the population of the entire region lives, and most of the troops of the same Spanish colonizers are concentrated here, as for Corrientes is the gateway to these places, the location is very important, so there are more troops stationed, but this is not the seam with the most troops, and the largest number of troops are stationed here in Asunción, the earliest colonial center, The colonial governor's palace was stationed there, and the governor was Valdo of the López family, a family with a long history and a noble family in Spain.

Valdo López, now in his forties, is still quite ambitious, and basically rules the area very firmly. When Pilar's messenger came to Asunción to report the news, his first thought was that it was impossible, just some indigenous Indians could besiege Corrientes, anyone would think it was impossible, but the messenger swore that Valdo Pelos did not believe it, so he began to issue a collection order to the nearby towns, so that the colonial troops from all over the place could quickly concentrate on Asunción, plus his own direct army, a total of more than 10,000 people, which was also the largest number he could gather, Otherwise, there will be a shortage of manpower elsewhere, and in the event of a rebellion by indigenous Indians, the entire colony will be in danger of being lost, so it is necessary to be cautious.

In order to lift the siege of Corrientes as soon as possible, Valdo Pelos decided to give these unknown Indians a thunderous blow, so he dispatched as many troops as possible, leaving less than a thousand troops in Ascension, and the rest were on ships to Corrientes, hoping to use the greatest force to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop and restore the ruling order here.
