Chapter 308: Minefield
"Rojas! Take someone inside and have a look! Franco gave the order to Roxas on the side.
Well?
Rojas was stunned for a moment.
The gates of this city are wide open, and there is no one, and you let me in? I don't want to die, huh?
"My lord, I'm afraid there is fraud!"
"So I'm going to take someone in and take a look!
"I..."
"What you do, this is the order! I set up artillery to support outside, even if the other party is cheating, I can't withstand the attack of hundreds of artillery! β
You're right, they can't stand it.
I am made of iron, and I can withstand it.
But no amount of rich psychological activity could change the orders of his superiors, and Roxas led two hundred soldiers to slowly walk towards the city gate.
That's right, just go.
Rojas almost walked over, just so that the other party could escape in time.
Less than a mile away, Rojas grinded for nearly a quarter of an hour.
"My lord, there doesn't seem to be anyone inside." Walking to the city gate, one of the soldiers looked inside, turned to Rojas, and said.
"Go in and have a look." Rojas also saw it and said to the soldier who spoke.
The soldier was also a little stunned when he heard this, but he still walked slowly inside.
"Hurry up! Don't grind! What's there to be afraid of!? β
Rojas's urging made the soldiers very helpless, but seeing that there really didn't seem to be anyone inside, he simply gritted his teeth and ran inside. It turned out that there was really no one inside.
"My lord, come in. There's no one inside! β
As he spoke, he kicked open the door of a house by the side of the road, and found that there was indeed nothing inside.
Now Rojas was relieved, and led the soldiers into the city, and searched the nearby houses and alleys for a while, only to find that there was still no one.
"Go tell Franco, it's an empty city!"
Rojas sent soldiers to report to Franco, and he continued to search house to house. Trying to find something valuable.
He was disappointed in the results.
When these people left, they seemed to have taken everything they could, not to mention money and food, and there was not even an iron pot left.
After a while, Franco also entered the city with his soldiers and found Rojas.
"What's the situation?"
"I don't know, there's no one in the city right now. Not only that, but the other party took everything he could. β
"Where have you been?" Franco muttered.
"My subordinates don't know."
"I didn't ask you!" Franco glared at Rojas. "You send people out to find out where they are within a radius of a few dozen miles. The rebel soldiers, together with the men, women and children of the city, could not have left no trace. Initial update @ "
"Yes!"
Rojas agreed. He simply took people out of the city and sent people to look around. I casually found a direction to lead people away. After walking for about an hour, I came across a village.
There are a few bare-bottomed children playing at the entrance of the village.
Rojas stepped forward, kicked a little boy away, and walked towards the village.
The child's cry caught the attention of the adults, and a woman came out of the thatched hut and ran back in fright at the sight of Rojas's dress.
Rojas burst out laughing and ordered the soldiers to gather the men, women, and children of the village at the entrance of the village.
"Ask them if they have seen the people of Balangya, dare to cover up, and kill them all!" Roxas commanded at one of the puppet soldiers.
Then the chattering conversation began.
After a while, the conversation stopped.
The puppet army seems to have gotten the answer.
"My lord! They don't know exactly where they went. But when one of them entered the city the day before yesterday, he found that the people in the city were packing their things, and when they heard that we were coming, they were going to run into the mountains. β
"What mountain?"
"It should be Mount Natib on the west side."
"Mount Natib?" Rojas frowned, could it be that these guys thought that they could escape their encirclement by hiding in the mountains?
After thinking about it for a long time, he didn't come up with a reason, so he simply took someone back to Balangya and reported the matter to Franco.

Chapter 308: Minefield
"Is the message accurate?" Franco asked.
"It should be accurate, I have already sent someone to the west to take a look, and there are indeed traces of a large group of people passing by."
"Hmm."
Franco made a mistake, if the opponent got into the mountains, his own artillery would have little effect.
Remembering the promise he had made in front of the Governor, Franco felt a little painful.
Suppressing the rebellion within ten days, careless. @η²Ύε\/Shuge Error-free Debut~~
"Send the order, everyone go out of the city and enter the mountains to encircle and suppress the rebels!"
"Yes!"
Roxas prophesied again, but eventually agreed.
In fact, Franco was also very helpless, but at the moment there was no other way but to go into the mountains to encircle and suppress.
In the Natib Mountain on the west side, Zheng Zhibao and Lu Jiang are leading soldiers to lay mines, which were sent by Lu Jiang last night, not far from the foot of the mountain, and are the only way to enter the mountain. According to the plan, the red-haired ghost will definitely counterattack after losing the battle, and the news that they brought people into the mountain will definitely not be hidden. The red-haired ghost knew that they had gone into the mountains, and they would definitely bring people to attack.
Therefore, Lu Jiang, who knew Zheng Zhibao's situation, strongly recommended the various mines brought this time. After a little demonstration, Zheng Zhibao was conquered by all kinds of powerful mines.
"General Lu, how far can a trip mine like this be killed?" Zheng Zhibao asked curiously.
"On flat ground, shrapnel can fly more than ten steps, but there are many trees in the mountains, and the power will be greatly reduced. But don't worry, there are many types of mines brought this time. Like the mother and son thunder, the flowering thunder, the chain thunder, and the gravel thunder, they will definitely not be able to eat and walk around. Lu Jiang, who is familiar with the power of these mines, said confidently.
"Haha, I'm really looking forward to the scene where the red-haired ghost is blown up."
"It's just an appetizer, General Zheng, that's the real meal."
Zheng Zhibao nodded and did not speak.
The two men and their soldiers were busy until after lunch, and then descended from the south side of Mount Natib.
Yes, they did not go into the mountains at all. Instead, he was temporarily stationed in a col on the south side of Mount Natib.
But in order to hide people's eyes, they did take a large army to the mountains to spare a circle.
As for whether Franco can find out, it depends on the will of God.
"General Zheng, how's it going? Is the red-haired ghost calling? As soon as Zheng Zhibao came back, Conley came up and asked.
Somehow, as soon as Zheng Zhibao was not around, he felt that he had lost his backbone, and he always felt unsteady.
"Not yet. Wait, don't come today, come tomorrow. β
Zheng Zhibao smiled and said. Before, he was still a little worried, afraid that Conley's group of rookies would not be able to defeat these Spanish regular troops at all, but these firearms brought by Lu Jiang made all his worries disappear.
In the evening, Franco led his soldiers to the foot of the mountain.
"Send someone to see if you're sure you're going into the mountain." Rojas gave the order to his men with great eyes. γ
A dozen soldiers ran back after checking around.
"My lord! There are indeed traces of a large army entering the mountains! These yellow-skinned monkeys must have entered the mountains! β
"Good! Tomorrow morning into the mountains! βγ
