"Oh, come here."
The Spanish captain waved to several people, and they immediately walked up to him.
"You idiots, stop chasing if there is no movement? Light the torch and throw it down for me. If there is an ambush, burn them to death."
The vagrants and natives of the Japanese country suddenly realized, and immediately lit torches and threw them into the tunnel.
Zhan Zhao and the others were still waiting for the natives and Japanese wanderers to continue sending off their heads, when they suddenly found many torches falling from above.
Zhan Zhao immediately called out:
"They used a fire attack, retreat quickly!"
"Yes"
Zhan Zhao led ten Jinyi guards, and immediately ran away.
Only dozens of torches were thrown on the tunnel, and the Spanish captain stopped immediately:
"Stop, don't throw any more, we won't be able to enter the tunnel if you throw too many torches."
The aborigines were still immature, so they immediately stopped their movements. Although the Japanese ronin also stopped their movements, they felt a little upset.
"Nimma, it's you Westerners who are allowed to throw torches, and it's you who are not allowed to throw torches. It's too difficult for us."
"What is the taste?"
"Haha, the Ming people who were ambushing below must have been burned to death..."
Suddenly someone smelled a burnt smell and started talking about it.
The Spanish captain pondered for a while, and then waved to several indigenous leaders:
"Send someone down to have a look. It is estimated that someone was burned to death."
The native leader, the idiot, also knew the consequences of entering the tunnel now, so he hesitated:
"Captain... this... will be burned to death..."
The Spanish captain stared at these indigenous leaders fiercely, and already regarded them as pigs in his heart.
"There are dozens of torches in total, bring water and pour them in, and then have someone check them out, hurry up!"
The little leader of the Japanese ronin looked at the Spanish captain and cursed inwardly:
"The real Nima is a pig, can dozens of torches burn the Chinese below to death? Why do they have long legs?"
However, Japanese ronin are always cunning. Although they have thoughts in their hearts, they will not say them out.
They were all worried that after speaking out, the Spanish captain would let the Japanese ronin enter the tunnel first for inspection.
The tunnel was very long, and Zhan Zhao led Jin Yiwei to run for two incense sticks before reaching the end. He still admired the Liu family's big project.
If the Liu family didn't have a tunnel, they would have been surrounded by tens of thousands of natives, and it is estimated that not many people would be able to escape.
Liu Ran had been waiting at the exit of the tunnel for a long time, and he hadn't seen Zhan Zhao and others appear for a long time. He thought that all the guards in Jinyi had died.
Just when he was in extreme despair, Zhan Zhao appeared in front of him with ten Jin Yiwei.
"My lord, you are finally here, go up quickly."
Zhan Zhao patted Liu Pao on the shoulder and said with a smile:
"Don't worry, we don't die so easily, let's go up."
Everyone quickly climbed out of the tunnel along the wooden ladder, and found that there was a small hill outside, that kind of dirt hill.
Liu Fengxiang, Zhang Shantang and others waited outside the exit of the tunnel and did not leave. They were all waiting for Zhan Zhao.
Seeing Zhan Zhao appearing and covered in blood, they thought Zhan Zhao was injured, so they rushed forward and grabbed Zhan Zhao's arm.
"My lord, are you injured? Go to the manor for treatment, and you'll be there after you climb over the hill."
Zhan Zhao shook his head:
"Go back and organize people to do a good job of defense. Liu Ran will stay and lead the way for us, and the rest will follow the second elder and leave immediately. Hurry up!"
There were about 1000 people outside, and they all bowed deeply to Zhan Zhao:
"Thank you for saving my life, sir, if..."
At this moment, Zhan Zhao heard the shouts of the natives in the tunnel, and he hurriedly said:
"Zhang Xu, you lead forty brocade guards to protect everyone. Let's go quickly. You can only be safe when the Ming army lands."

Chapter 561 Escape from Manila City
Chapter 561 Escape from Manila City
Many Chinese are weak businessmen, and they don't want to be massacred when they hear that the natives are chasing them.
After thanking Zhan Zhao, he immediately followed the head of the Liu family and the head of the Zhang family.
Forty brocade guards followed closely, responsible for protecting their safety.
Everyone left, only Zhan Zhao Liu Ran and ten Jin Yiwei were left on the scene.
Zhan Zhao turned around and asked the remaining Jin Yiwei:
"Do you still have grenades?"
The ten royal guards hurriedly replied:
"My lord, how many are there!"
Zhan Zhao nodded:
"Take them all out."
"Yes"
The ten Jinyi guards took out the grenades hanging around their waists and handed them to Zhan Zhao.
It is said to be a grenade, but it is actually a simple grenade.
Zhan Zhao saw that there were about twenty of them, and he took out one and handed it to Liu Ran.
