Chapter 320 I feel an ambush
Unbelievable was written on Apu's face.

He has planted it all his life, but he doesn't understand why this happens.

The millet in the ears of rice is pitifully small, and it can even be said that there is almost no millet.

He remembered Conley's words.

This season's paddy production will definitely decrease, but if it continues like this, it will not be a decrease in production, but a complete harvest.It was terrible. If Conley hadn't said it, no one would have checked to see if there were any grains in the pleasing ears of rice!
He hastily pulled off a few more ears of rice, which made his face still ugly.

There are millet, but very few.

"Patriarch, what's the matter?" The middle-aged man who had been following Apu asked tremblingly, he had already vaguely guessed something.

"Look for yourself." Apu didn't speak, but pouted at the rice field.

The middle-aged man followed suit and pulled off a few ears of rice. The result was the same as that of Apu.

"What's going on here?"

"I don't know. It doesn't matter if only this area is like this. If the whole village is like this, we have to make plans early."

"I'll send people to check in their respective fields immediately!" The middle-aged man ran away in a hurry.

Seeing the middle-aged man's staggering steps, Apu saw a glint of gloom in his eyes.If, as Conley said, the entire Luzon is cultivated with this kind of high-yield rice seedlings, I am afraid that the world will really be in chaos!

But he didn't tell the truth, because he was somewhat lucky in his heart.What if it's just these few lands?

He walked slowly towards the village, and it didn't take long for the village to become chaotic.

One by one, the villagers who got the news started digging into the ground. Half an hour later, the middle-aged man came back sweating profusely.

"Patriarch! It's not good! It's not good! The rice fields in the village are all like this! The ears of rice look pleasing, but they don't grow much millet at all! According to this, one mu of land may produce a hundred catties. Alright! Here! What can we do with this!" The middle-aged man cried out anxiously as he spoke.

"Wait a little longer, maybe the grouting period will come later this year."

Apu comforted him with words, but in fact he himself had no idea at all.The whole village is like this, I'm afraid it's everywhere. "In addition, let the people in the clan exchange all the valuables at home for food. Be quick!"

"Yes! Patriarch!"

After listening to Apu's words, the middle-aged man understood that it was time to plan for a rainy day.

"In addition, there is one more thing, you find someone to do it."

Apu gave instructions to the middle-aged man, and the middle-aged man nodded repeatedly.

On the other end, Franco led the men all the way north, chasing in the direction where Conley was escaping.Until the evening, Franco had no intention of ordering a rest, and the soldiers were already exhausted.Finally Esteban spoke.

"My lord, should we take a break? We haven't stopped since we had lunch. The people below are tired and hungry. Even if we catch up with the rebels, we won't be able to fight."

Franco looked at the listless soldiers around him and nodded.

"Let everyone rest for a while. After eating, continue marching." After speaking, he glanced at Esteban. "It's not that I don't want everyone to rest. We are not too far away from the rebels right now. If we let them escape, Luzon is so big, can we still stop them? If they keep leading us by the nose, I'm afraid we will be tired." The time is still behind."

"Yes." Esteban nodded.Looking at the sun that is about to set in the distance.

For some reason, he always had a bad feeling.

After dinner, Franco ignored the wailing of the soldiers and ordered the march to continue.

At this time, they were still about fifteen miles away from Conley.

Conley's rebels were eating, and Conley was holding a piece of cake to discuss the next plan with Zheng Zhibao.

"General Zheng, what should we do after we have eaten? Should we stay on the spot or move on?"

"Can't be stationed, if you rest here, I'm afraid you will be attacked by red-haired ghosts at night."

"Then we?"

"Don't go!"

"Don't go?"

"Yes! Since they followed the footsteps of our march, they must have grasped our whereabouts. If we are bitten by them, we may not even be able to sleep peacefully unless we continue to drill into the mountains. But that has nothing to do with us. The next plan doesn’t match. It’s better to go back and bite them hard so that they don’t dare to pursue again, so that we can sit back and relax.”

"What is General Zheng's plan?"

"After dinner later, I will lead people to lay mines here, and you lead the soldiers to ambush to the side. When the thunder sounds here, you immediately lead the army to charge and launch an attack from the side."

"But, I..." Conley looked confused. Without Zheng Zhibao's help, he would not have the confidence to go head-to-head with the Spaniard.

"I'll rush over when I'm done here. If you're worried, General Lu will come with you." Zheng Zhibao looked at Lu Jiang, who smiled and nodded.

Conley calmed down immediately after listening.

After a few people discussed it, the soldiers also finished their meal and immediately started to act.

Kang Li and Lu Jiang went around to ambush, while Zheng Zhibao led people to place mines nearby.Since the terrain is flat and there are not many nearby mines, the types of mines that can be used are relatively simple, and Zheng Zhibao's subordinates can easily handle them.After releasing the landmines, they did not rush to chase Conley, but retreated a mile and lay down on the ground.

Conley led the people around in a circle and came to five miles away, where there happened to be a small river, which could be hidden by the slope of the river.

Everything was ready, and everyone waited quietly for the arrival of the Spaniards.

Fortunately, Franco did not disappoint him. After more than an hour, a large group of people walked over.While marching, Franco sent a team of scouts to scout ahead.

It is said to be a scout, but it is actually a soldier with fast legs in the puppet army.At this time, he was walking along the ruts of Conley's troops.As he walked, he stopped.

Not right.

Why is it so quiet all of a sudden?

Is there an ambush?
Thinking of this, a chill ran down his spine, he turned his head and ran back.All the way to the front of Franco and others, excitedly shouted.

"My lord, don't go any further! There is an ambush!"

"What? How many people? Where is the ambush?" Franco asked excitedly.

If you can discover the opponent's ambush in advance, is it still an ambush?

"I don't know!" The soldier froze for a moment and replied in a low voice.

"Don't know?" Franco's eyes widened, like a weasel in the moonlight. "Then how did you know there was an ambush?"

"Based on my feeling."

"Fuck you." Esteban kicked up. "Can you rely on your feelings for such an important matter?"

Esteban, who was startled, was still angry and tried to chase after him, but was stopped by Franco.

"Stop it. I feel something is wrong too."

"What's the matter, my lord?"

"Don't you think it's too quiet around here?"
