Story[]
Arriving at Sanchez's headquarters, Pedro dismounted and rushed to Sanchez to inform him of the disappearance of the soldier and the horses. Upon hearing the news, he smacked one of his men on the head and told Pedro to take a couple of men and find out who was responsible for this. A frustrated Pedro ordered some men at the base to take a few horses and follow him back to camp. As they left, Sanchez's threw a rock a Pedro which missed.
As Pedro and the men left to investigate, John and his gang had just arrived. The four got a simple plan out together. John would climb the hills nearby, infiltrate the fortress, and open the gate. Afterwards, they would make their way to Sanchez's tower, knock him out, and leave with him alive.
And so, the four did just that; they got to the top of Sanchez's tower and knocked him out. At the same time, however, Pedro and his men had returned to base. Seeing their fortress broken into, he ordered his man to search around while he took out a Gatling gun on rails. Just like before, the four made their way back to the bottom and carried Sanchez out with them.
