Hearing that he had found the ship that Serezo was on, Zheng Zhilong's first reaction was that this guy had already run away.

Since the other party has abandoned the ship, he will definitely not escape from the sea.

If you don't take the waterway, you will naturally take the land.

So he asked people to find the map of Luzon for the first time, and by looking at the terrain, he might be able to guess the whereabouts of the other party.

"Chief soldier, you've found it." A soldier ran and brought a copy of Luzon's map.

"Spread out."

Zheng Zhilong ordered the soldiers to spread out the map on the table, and several people surrounded him.

"Where did you find the ship?"

"This!" The soldier who had just reported the news said as he pointed to Cavit.

"This?" Zheng Zhilong groaned and said affirmatively. "If that's the case, he must have landed in Cavett knowing that the waterway doesn't work!"

"Presumably, this Serezo has only been in office for a few days, and he has no sense of belonging to Luzon, so he naturally will not hesitate to run away. Now we need to be sure, in which direction did he flee?" Xie Xuelong agreed with Zheng Zhilong's statement and put forward new ideas.

"It's hard to say, if he escapes, he will naturally have to go back to his own country, and it is a long way to go to Mexico, and if he dares to take the land route, he must be the person on the other side who has already arranged to meet him. However, this Luzon Island is surrounded by the sea, and it is really difficult to determine where he is going to go to sea.

"It's hard to find, but there are traces. Since he travels by land, he naturally has to find the closest place on the road to go to sea, and where is the closest outlet to the sea from Kavit?"

"This should be it, Barayan." Zheng Zhilong pointed to the map and said. "It seems that he has the best chance of going to sea from here!"

"There's another place."

Conley, who had been silently watching, spoke, and seeing that everyone was attracted to him, Conley cleared his throat and continued:

"Barayan is the closest, but there is a mountain in the middle, and although it is not high, it will definitely slow down Cerezo's escape. The other place, although a little farther away, is a smooth one, without any obstacles, but more time-saving. Cerezo was busy escaping, and there was a good chance that he would choose this place."

After speaking, he pointed to the map.

"Batangas?"

"Yes! I think this is the most likely escape route for Cerezo."

Seeing that Conley put forward his opinion so affirmatively for the first time, Zheng Zhilong was also moved, and looked at Xie Xuelong.

"What do you mean by being a superintendent?"

"Isn't it that far from this Barayam and Batangas? Cerezo fled by land, naturally asking for a ship to pick him up and go to sea. Even Batangas, which is a little farther away, can reach it in half a day at the speed of the First Fleet. As long as I can find him, I won't let him escape!"

"Good! Then there will be a labor inspector, and I will send someone to pursue him from the land. Let's divide our soldiers into two ways, so that he can't escape!"

Zheng Zhilong arched his hand.

Anyway, it's a bit of a pity that Cerezo wasn't caught. Only when he is captured can the battle be considered completely complete.

As soon as the group had finished their discussions, the soldiers outside came back to report that Serezo had not been found among the captives, which made everyone more certain that Serezo had escaped from the Kavit landing.

Xie Xuelong left Manila directly, and Zheng Zhilong sent someone to Kavit to investigate, and sure enough, he found the traces left by Cerezo and others. ….

At this time, Cerezo didn't know that Zheng Zhilong had discovered his whereabouts, they had been walking for four or five hours, and the soldiers were already exhausted, but they didn't dare to relax in the slightest.

Their characteristics are too obvious, and although they avoid crowded places along the way, they still inevitably leave traces.

Cerezo feared that Akito would follow in their footsteps, and if that were the case, it would be terrible.

"Give the order to rest for a while." Cerezo said to his henchmen.

He looked at the hundreds of soldiers under his command who were all tired and panting, gritted his teeth, and still gave the order to rest.

They washed their faces and ate some dry food in a nearby creek.

By this time night had slowly fallen, but Serre

Zuo still urged the soldiers to get on the road.

No one complained, even if everyone was tired enough. After all, we all know that being caught up is definitely a dead end.

Zheng Zhilong's men also set off, the number was not large, only a thousand, but they were all well-equipped young and strong, led by Zheng Zhibao, all the way south, following the trail left by Serezo.

On the other side, Xie Xuelong also led the First Fleet out of Manila Bay and headed south along the coastline.

The night voyage was a little slower, but Cerezo had plenty of time just after he fled.

But just like that, the next day it was dawn, and they had reached the mouth of the bay where Barayan was. Xie Xuelong directly ordered to go up along the bay, and this search, after searching for three hours, directly swept the bay aside, and no suspicious ships were found.

Thinking of Conley's words, Xie Xuelong ordered a straight heading for Batangas.

An hour later, they arrived at their destination.

Spanish warships docked at the port of Batangas were also found. Xie Xuelong counted them, and there were twenty-eight ships in total.

Together with the two ships they abandoned, exactly thirty, it matched the number that the captives said Cerezo had brought.

"Overseer. To fight or not to fight?" Lu Shiyun put down the binoculars and asked.

"Don't fight." Xie Xuelong shook his head. "Their ship is still here, which means that Cerezo hasn't boarded it yet. If we blow up and sink all these ships, it will be even more difficult for Cerezo to hide on land."

"That's exactly what the Overseer said." Lu Shiyun suddenly realized.

Xie Xuelong is right, Cerezo is indeed still on the way. And it's not far away.

Cavit was only a hundred and fifty miles from Batangas, and the men of Cerezo traveled lightly and quickly.

The most important thing is that under the threat of their lives, they only rested for one hour at night, which can be said to have burst out to their maximum potential. At this time, it was only sixty or seventy miles away from Batangas.

"My lord, take a rest again! Everybody's holding it up!" Cerezo's personal soldier said weakly.

"Good!"

Cerezo agreed.

Not to mention a soldier, he couldn't hold it himself.

From yesterday to now, I've been walking except when I'm eating. Even those who are beaten with iron can't stand it.

Cerezzo sat down, picked up the kettle, and poured a few large sips of cold water.

"How far is it?" He looked at the soldier who was holding the map.

"Seventy or eighty miles away, and we will reach Batangas."

"Whew!"

Cerezo took off his shoes and found a spike to blister his foot. There is an unspeakable resentment in my heart.

Damn, why is it so far!

It's the first time Cerezo has walked this far this distance. But compared to being killed by the artillery of the Ming people at sea, he would rather walk a few hundred miles more!

He sat there for a moment, calculated the next journey, and slowly stood up.

"Brothers! Let's go! With a little more effort, we'll be able to drink coffee in the comfort of the boat tomorrow morning! And the cute little ewes are waiting for you!"
