In the meantime, Monteverde consolidated his hold on Venezuela by waging a brutal pacification campaign against the Creoles.

与此同时，蒙特维多通过对克里奥尔人发动残酷的绥靖运动，巩固了他对委内瑞拉的控制。

In response to the desperate situation, the Venezuelan congress appointed Miranda dictator, and the old general engaged in a series of battles with Monteverde's army without taking the offensive.

为了应对绝境，委内瑞拉国会任命米兰达为独裁者，老将军与蒙特维德军队进行了一系列战斗， 但没有采取攻势。

Although the arrest was carried out, Las Casas had also been in contact with Monteverde and Miranda was delivered to Spanish authorities, never to see the light of day again.

虽然逮捕行动得以实施，但拉斯卡萨斯也与蒙特维多取得了联系， 米兰达被移交给西班牙当局，从此再也见不到曙光。
