The lord hunted down by the game

Chapter 189 Want to run away
In the city of St. Augustine in the Florida Province of New Spain, the Governor-General, Clemente and Domingo were looking desperately at the army flying the American Imperial Eagle flag outside.

The flag of the American Empire was copied by Yuri from the eagle flag of the Sauron family, but the background color was changed to black.

It is called the Black Eagle Flag by outsiders.

The number of American imperial troops outside St. Augustine, an important city in the Florida province, is actually very small, less than 2000.

On the other hand, in St. Augustine, the original garrison plus the defeated troops gathered by Domingo, the number has already exceeded 5 digits!

However, there is only one reason for a commander with 1 people to be intimidated by an army of less than 2000—Yuri is in that army!
These less than 2000 people are Yuri's Guards!
It is very easy for Domingo, a Spanish professional general, to identify Yuri's Guards. As long as there are ancient soldiers with 'cockscomb heads' and red capes inside, they are 100% Yuri's Guards!
Because in the entire American Empire, only the 500 Spartan Guards around Yuri would wear that.

It was only after fighting each other that he realized how terrifying Yuri was. At this moment, even General Domingo, who had experienced many battles, felt terrified of Yuri from the bottom of his heart.

This timidity naturally came from the blow brought by the previous trial British army.

Defeat 2 troops with a scale of 10. Although Domingo struggled to annihilate the last wave of trial British troops in the end, Domingo knew in his heart that it was already the end of the European Legion's strength...

The reason why Yuri brought the guards to besiege St. Augustine was because the troops of the Sauron Legion were sent out by Yuri to clean up and occupy those villages and manors.

In the Spanish American colonies, the rule was based on the manor economy.

That is to say, a country composed of manor owners and a large number of low-level indigenous black slaves.

The number of high-ranking whites who are manor owners is naturally very small. Originally, there were many mixed-race whites, but after two battles with Yuri, there are not many young mixed-race whites who are willing to join the army in the Florida province...

Even the 'converts' who were fooled by the Spanish Catholicism, the number of young adults of the right age to fight is not much.

Because in the Spanish American colonies, native Indians who converted to Catholicism often obtained a higher status of freedom than their compatriots, so the Spanish colonial army, which was short of troops, often used these native Indian converts.

The conversion here is not just about shouting "God bless". Not only does one need to convert religiously, but one also needs to be able to communicate proficiently in Spanish.

In all the American regions colonized by the Kingdom of Spain, Spanish is the lingua franca and the basic guarantee for obtaining the status of free citizens.

If you can’t even speak Spanish, and you’re not an expatriate from a powerful European country, you’ll be discriminated against and abused basically wherever you go!

Because under the racial hierarchy of the Spanish colonial government, natives who could not speak Spanish were considered inferior.

Converting to Catholicism is the only way for the native Indians to get rid of their inferior status, while learning Spanish is the only way to obtain the status of a free citizen.

It is this kind of rule that made the many complex Indian tribes in the Americas finally form a nearly unified language and script.

Today, Central America and South America have undergone hundreds of years of high-handed colonial rule by the Spaniards. Except for slaves and inferior natives, basically everyone can speak fluent Spanish.

"Domingo, let's run away. The few people in the city can't stop Yuri's summoned legion at all. He has obviously become stronger. The summoned legion is much stronger than the data shows, both in terms of equipment and numbers!"

Clemente begged Domingo like a bereaved child.

During the retreat, Clemente, who took the main responsibility for the failure, lost all his prestige. In addition, he did not reorganize the army at all in his escape, and Domingo did all the chores such as gathering the rout and reorganizing. Do.

Thus, the last awe that the Spanish army had had for Clement had completely dissipated.

It can be said that Clement can still retain his status as commander-in-chief only because Domingo, the actual person in power, recognizes him.

However, even though he completely lost his military power, Clement did not feel the slightest sense of crisis. The nobility brought by his bloodline since he was a child has formed a deep-rooted concept in Clement——Domingo will never and dare not betray him !
Since the actual masters of the army dare not betray him, he naturally doesn't need to bother fighting for military power.

What's more, Clemente, the airborne commander, is different from Domingo. In the end, Domingo wiped out the British army for trial, and retained a certain amount of family property in the European Legion. Some of his confidants still followed Domingo closely Ge side.

It was the foundation of these European legions that allowed Domingo to easily collect and reorganize those defeated soldiers, and by promoting his confidantes and placing officers, he thus completely controlled the tens of thousands of Spanish colonial troops.

Of course, don’t think about combat effectiveness. This doesn’t mean that the troops reorganized by Domingo have poor basic combat qualities. These people are veterans who have experienced brutal wars anyway, and they can walk in the queue.

The main reason is that this group of people was demoralized by Yuri's summoned army. Facing Yuri and his summoned army, they bowed their heads before the battle started.

Unlike Clement who only persuaded Domingo to run away, the officers under Domingo's rule had more than once privately persuaded Domingo to surrender directly to Yuri!

The surrender was naturally because the officers knew they couldn't outrun Yuri's pursuit!

An army of more than 1 people is still dominated by infantry, how could it be possible to escape the pursuit of less than 2000 people?

What's more, there are less than 2000 people or the famous Yuri Guards!
Anyone with a bit of military common sense knows that once they leave the city of St. Augustine, no matter which direction the more than 1 people retreat in, they will be chased and collapsed by Yuri in the end!
Even Yuri doesn't need the help of the summoned legion, the guards in his hands alone are enough...

Now the Spanish army in the city is panicking and their morale is in turmoil. Is it possible to expect them to resist tenaciously during their run and delay the pace of Yuri's Guards?

Clement naturally knew this too, so what he said by running away was to abandon all the troops and run to Mexico with only a few horse-riding personal guards and light clothes.

If only a few dozen people run away, the Florida province is so big, as long as they break away from Yuri's Guards, it's really a dream!
However, Domingo is unwilling to give up these family properties in his heart!
