The men sent by Alvarez had not gone far when they encountered the communications corps arriving from Ichagre.

It was only after learning that the attackers had been surrounded, and Alvarez's nervousness eased slightly.

His eyes still fell on the plaza downstairs, but his mind was spinning fast.

He thought about how to excuse himself later.

Alvarez prayed that the fire in the mansion would burn as little as possible, and hoped that the wedding would end as soon as possible, so that he could send in his own support.

Far from decreasing, the number of civilians standing outside the square to watch has increased.

Alvarez's gaze swept over the crowd and suddenly felt a little strange.

"Ramos, why do those Indians look so strange?" He pointed to a few people in the crowd wearing sackcloth clothes and hats, and asked the adjutant behind him.

These people were mixed in with the crowd, as if they were passing by, and were walking through the crowd in their own direction.

"Oh, those people, they're not Indians, they're merchants from China." Ramos replied.

As Alvarez's lieutenant in charge of intelligence, he had met these Chinese in the city a few days earlier, and most of them were not talkative, but the one in the lead was very talkative.

"It seems that they saved the eldest lady on the border line, don't worry, there are not many of them." Ramos said.

That's when Alvarez looked elsewhere.

The wedding has reached its climax, and the people attending the wedding have begun to dance merrily.

The musician holding the guitar is playing happily. Like those who danced, he reveled in his own music.

Suddenly, he heard something dissonant in his music.

It seemed like gunshots.

The musician looked at his companions and saw that they were in the same confusion.

He looked around again.

They were clearly not the only ones in the square who realized this.

The crowd of onlookers on the periphery began to stir, and the dignitaries and dignitaries who attended the wedding in the inner circle of the square also began to realize that something was wrong.

"Ask Alvarez, what's going on?"

Gutierrez was standing with old Priego, holding a wine glass, and whispered to the attendants beside him.

He looked over the roof, and saw that his captain of the guard was nervously communicating something with the lieutenant behind him.

After a while, the attendant returned, and his face was very ugly.

He was followed by two groups of heavily armed soldiers.

The attendant glanced at old Priego beside Gutierrez, and stopped talking.

"To put it bluntly, we are a family." Gutierrez said.

"There is a large group of cavalry, which is coming in the direction of the square." The squire nervously reported, "Captain Alvarez wants you to stay out of the way for a while. ”

"It can't really be Sergio's guy, right?!" Old Priego stamped his feet and cried bitterly, and immediately told his son and family to prepare to run away.

But when he turned his head, he found the consul standing still.

Old Priego was a little embarrassed, he didn't go, he didn't go.

"You guys go first." Gutierrez said with a blank face, "Safety is important. ”

"Then, Damian, take care." Old Priego was pardoned, turned around and ran.

He left the square from behind the church with his family, surrounded by a group of soldiers.

The groom ran away, and the wedding naturally couldn't go on, and the guests stood in the middle of the square, a little at a loss.

But they quickly reassured.

Because Gutierrez was still standing in front of the church.

Gutierrez looked at the departing back of the Priego family, turned to the butler and ordered, "Let Madame and Mademoiselle retreat to the church with me." ”

He was well aware that the church was surrounded by heavy troops from the Gutierrez and Prego families.

Sergio couldn't get in with his own cavalry patrol alone.

Therefore, it is safer to stay in the square; Evacuate rashly, in case the news is leaked and intercepted halfway, it is a life of nine deaths.

Prego House?

It is better for the whole family to be served in one pot, which just saves their own trouble.

"Tell Alvarez that I'm in church and I'm not going anywhere."

Gutierrez said to the attendant with a grim face,

"If he can't take care of Sergio with the forces of the two major families, then bury himself first."

At the same time, on the roof of the building opposite the church gate, his subordinate was clearly not as confident as his master.

Alvarez looked out at where the gunshots rang out.

There was a perimeter guard that had been deployed a few blocks from the central square, and at this time it was already in fire with Sergio.

He couldn't figure it out.

Sergio had obviously gone to attack Gutierrez's mansion, so how could he suddenly appear here.

"Maybe it's a feint attack on the mansion side, but the square is the main direction of attack." Adjutant Ramos analyzed, "We just need to hold it off."

"More than a hundred people on the other side of the mansion should be able to settle the battle soon, and when the time comes, Sergio and his cavalry patrol can't eat and walk."

Alvarez felt that his adjutant had a good point in his analysis.

It stands to reason that whether it is the strength of the army or the terrain, it is their own advantage, and they still have hostages in their hands.

But for some reason, why is he still a little panicked in his heart?

Sergio had already spotted the people lying in ambush on the outskirts of the camp.

He was going to take advantage of the speed advantage of the cavalry to rush out of the encirclement directly, but he didn't know why the soldiers who were in ambush suddenly withdrew.

Overjoyed, Sergio led his cavalry down the street to the vicinity of the central square.

On the periphery of the theater, they met the first wave of resistance.

The cavalry patrol did not love to fight, but rushed and fought, and soon the theater's defense line was shattered.

They didn't even leave any personnel to clean up the battlefield, and continued to kill directly towards the square.

If the gunshots were still faintly audible, the people in the square could now clearly see the dust raised two blocks away.

Screams resounded throughout the square, and the onlookers, as well as the guests attending the wedding, scattered and fled.

Alvarez stood upstairs and glanced at his troop formation, feeling very relieved.

Around the church, on the rooftops of the square, there are densely populated with soldiers of the Gutierrez and Plego families.

As long as Sergio arrived, this was his burial place.

He pushed the bloodless Romero beside him to the edge of the roof.

Romero's foot was already dangling in the air.

"Hey, lad, do you hear the sound of horses' hooves? That's your brother, just two hundred meters away, but unfortunately, he can't save you. ”

Alvarez pushed Romero's upper body out of the roof, frantically stimulating the young man.

"The moment he rushes in, I'm going to drop you down, you're going to see your brother's face for two seconds, and then, boom! Falling to the ground like a bag, the brains splashed~~ Hahaha. ”

Alvarez pointed to the ground under the roof and laughed maniacally.

Then, he heard a gunshot.

He felt like something had suddenly struck his heart and tore it apart.

Sharp pain came.

Alvarez's legs couldn't support his weight and he fell off the roof.

Romero, who was next to him, then lost his balance and landed on the roof of the building after Alvarez.

Just when this little master thought he was going to turn into a meatloaf.

Suddenly, he saw a net open on the ground.

Then, he didn't know anything.

"Damn, can you be more upset when you pick it up? I almost fell to my death. Li Sifu complained to several members of the Longxiang group around him.

"I looked at it, and I didn't touch the ground." A member of the Dragon's Group observed the person they had received and said with certainty, "It's just scared." ”

They carried their nets through the crowd, and as soon as they got to the bottom of the building, they saw someone fall from the roof.

By the time the net was opened, the man had already fallen to the ground.

They didn't.

Just when Li Sifu thought that the mission had failed, immediately after, someone fell down and fell into the net.

They hurriedly wrapped the man in a net and carried him out of the square along the wall.

So, when Alvarez's lieutenants and soldiers rushed up from behind to look down, they saw only their commander lying on the ground, blood flowing from his chest, soaking the ground around him.

There was a lot of chaos upstairs.

The soldiers were looking around for the source of the attack.

However, the commanding heights around the square are under their control, so it can't be an internal ghost, right?

"Wouldn't it be too early to kill him like this? Sergio's men haven't rushed in yet. Camilla put away the gun and asked Chen Jianqiu on the side.

"Who made him stand so high?" Chen Jianqiu replied.

He stood behind the statue of the Holy Son, looking down on the soldiers of Gutierrez below who were like headless flies.

Where Chen Jianqiu and Camilla stood, these soldiers couldn't notice it.

Because this is the real vantage point of the whole square - the top of the church.

Under normal circumstances, for ordinary people, it is impossible to go up.

However, this is not a normal situation, Chen Jianqiu and Camilla are not ordinary people.

"The prologue is over, the curtain is over, and it's time for the show to begin."
