America 1881: They Call Me Legend

Chapter 313 The real commanding heights of the square
The people sent by Alvarez hadn't gone far when they encountered the messengers who came from Ichagrey.

After learning that the people who attacked the mansion had been surrounded, Alvarez's nervousness eased a little.

His eyes still fell on the square downstairs, but his mind turned quickly.

He thought about how to excuse himself later.

Alvarez prayed that the fire in the mansion would be reduced as little as possible, and at the same time hoped that the following wedding would be over as soon as possible so that he could spare manpower to support it.

The number of civilians standing outside the square not only did not decrease, but increased.

Alvarez glanced across the crowd and suddenly felt a little strange.

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

These people were mixed in the crowd, they seemed to be passing by, they were going through the crowd and walking in their direction.

"Oh, those people, they are not Indians, they are businessmen from China." Ramos replied.

It stands to reason that whether it is military strength or terrain, he has the upper hand, and he still has a hostage in his hands.

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

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

They carried the net through the crowd, and as soon as they got to the downstairs, they saw someone fall from the top of the building.

Just when Li Sifu thought the mission had failed, another person fell down and fell into the net.

There is the outer security deployed a few streets away from the central square. At this time, Sergio has already exchanged fire.

The attendant glanced at the old Priego next to Gutierrez, hesitant to speak.

Therefore, it is safer to stay in the square; if you evacuate rashly, if the news is leaked and you are intercepted on the way, that is a narrow escape.

When the net opened, the man had already fallen to the ground.

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

He couldn't figure it out.

They didn't follow up.

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

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

Because Gutierrez was still standing at the door of the church.

However, the commanding heights around the square are all under their control, so it can't be the inner ghost, right?
"Is it too early to kill him like this? Sergio's men haven't rushed in yet." Camilla put away her gun and asked Chen Jianqiu beside her.

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

Behind him followed two teams of heavily armed soldiers.

It would be better for the whole family to be served in one pot, just to save myself trouble.

But they quickly calmed down.

He knew very well that the Gutierrez family and the Priego family's heavy troops were deployed around the church.

"The moment he rushed in, I would throw you down, and you would see your brother's face for two seconds, and then, bang! It fell to the ground like a bag, and your brains flew~~ hahaha."

Alvarez stood upstairs, glanced at his troop deployment, and was immediately relieved.

"Hey, young man, do you hear the sound of horseshoes? That's your brother, just 200 meters away, but unfortunately, he can't save you."

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

"Fuck, can you straighten up when you pick it up? You almost fell to your death." Li Sifu complained to several members of the Longxiang team around him.

Alvarez pushed Romero's upper body out of the roof, prodding the young man wildly.

Gutierrez said to the attendant with a livid face,

They didn't even stay with the personnel who cleaned the battlefield, and continued to kill the square directly.

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

"Maybe the mansion is a feint attack, and the square is the main direction of attack." Adjutant Ramos analyzed, "We just need to hold back.

Pain came.

The cavalry patrol team did not love to fight, but rushed and fought, and quickly smashed the theater's defense line to pieces.

He felt something hit him suddenly in the heart area, and it ripped apart.

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

As Alvarez's adjutant in charge of intelligence, he had met these Chinese in the city a few days ago. Most of them were not talkative, but the leader was very talkative.

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

He suddenly saw a net spread out on the ground.

He originally planned to use the speed advantage of the cavalry to rush out of the encirclement, but he didn't know why the soldiers in ambush suddenly withdrew.

Sergio obviously went to attack Gutierrez's mansion, why did he suddenly appear here.

After a while, the attendant came back with a very ugly face.

Then, he didn't know anything.

There was chaos upstairs.

"Ask Alvarez, what happened?"

Alvarez looked out to where the gunshots sounded.

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

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

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

"I looked at it, but I didn't touch the ground." A member of Longchamp's team observed the person they received, and said with certainty, "I just fainted from shock."

Old Priego was a little embarrassed, he didn't want to leave, and he didn't want to leave.

Gutierrez looked at the leaving back of the Priego family, turned around and ordered to the butler: "Let the lady and miss retreat to the church with me."

A musician holding a guitar is happily playing.Like those who dance, he is also intoxicated by his music.

The musician looked at his companions and found that they also had the same confusion.

Sergio was overjoyed, and led the cavalry along the street all the way to the vicinity of the central square.

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

Only then did Alvarez shift his gaze to other places.

One of Romero's feet was already in the air.

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

"Then, Damian, take care." Old Priegor turned around and ran away as if he had been pardoned.

Then, he heard a gunshot.

Around the church and on the roofs around the square, soldiers from the Gutierrez family and the Priego family were densely packed.

Screams resounded throughout the square, and the onlookers, as well as the wedding guests, fled in all directions.

Suddenly, he heard something discordant in his own music.

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

He stood behind the statue of the Son, overlooking Gutierrez's soldiers who were like headless chickens below.

The wedding has reached its climax, and the people who attended the wedding began to dance happily.

Soldiers are looking around for the source of the attack.

"Let's go first." Gutierrez said blankly, "Safety is the most important thing."

He looked around again.

Alvarez pointed at the ground under the roof, laughing wildly.

It sounded like gunshots.

"The more than 100 people at the mansion should be able to resolve the battle soon. When the time comes, they will come back for help. Sergio and his cavalry patrol team can't afford to walk around."

Alvarez felt that his adjutant's analysis made sense.

They are obviously not the only ones in the square who are aware of this.

As long as Sergio comes here, this is the place where he will be buried.

Therefore, when Alvarez's adjutants and soldiers rushed up and looked down from behind, they only saw their chief lying on the ground, with blood flowing from his chest, soaking the ground around him.

Priego's house?

Romero, who was on his side, then lost his balance, stepped on the air, and fell from the roof following Alvarez.

"It can't really be that Sergio guy?!" Old Priego stomped his feet and cried out, and immediately asked his son and family members to prepare to run away.

"A large group of cavalry is heading towards the square." The attendant reported nervously, "Captain Alvarez hopes that you can avoid it for a while."

Just when the young master thought he was going to become a meatloaf.

They quickly wrapped the man in a net, and took advantage of the chaos to carry him out of the square along the wall.

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

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

But when he turned his head, he found that the consul was standing there motionless.

He looked towards the roof and found that his captain of the guard was nervously communicating with the adjutant behind him.

Because this is the real commanding height of the whole square - the top of the church.

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

However, the current situation is not normal, and Chen Jianqiu and Camilla are not ordinary people either.

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