Chapter 364 12.14 Zi Teng's Death Arranged by Beijing Jing
Chapter 12
12.14 Ziteng died, arranged by Beijing Jing

More than half a month later, at the beginning of February of the 18th year of Yongzheng, in a small military camp outside Datong Mansion, it was almost midnight.

"This old fox is still watertight!" Wang Ziteng took a sip of the wine in his glass with a gloomy expression, then glanced at the glass again and said bitterly, "It's really a poor place on the frontier, and there is no good wine!"

"My lord, I'm afraid we won't achieve the desired effect." The staff standing on the side had a bitter expression, "Almost two years have passed, and we have used all the methods we should use. The Zhenbei Army still hasn't shown the slightest flaw.

The prince of Beijing Jing clearly wants to sell, but he should have already connected with the palace, so naturally he doesn't need to worry about us anymore, but in this way, the Lord is afraid to be on His Majesty's side."

"The nominally [-] army, but now the actual number is only a little over [-], yet they report to the imperial court every year for food and salaries according to the [-] standard, but the five armies' governor's office and the Ministry of War all turn a blind eye to it. It is simply unreasonable to say that there is no problem.

The Zhenbei Army even traded with the Tartars in private. Many goods that were banned by the imperial court could be exported under a different name in a grand manner. Salt, tea, refined iron and even weapons were all sold wantonly.

The amount of silver falling into the Beijing Prince's Mansion every year is probably more than one million. No wonder the Shui family can treat this town like an iron bucket operated by the Northern Army. I'm afraid the court is full of lordship, thinking this is a place of bitter cold, right? " Wang Ziteng said angrily.

"Your Excellency, be careful!" The staff's face changed suddenly, "I'm afraid the four major frontier armies have done a lot of private smuggling. In fact, it's not just them, but the Jiangnan Army that has just risen, and the so-called Bailian Holy Army. clean?"

When speaking, the staff felt very helpless. The Jiangmen is actually another kind of aristocratic family, and it is impossible for all the things passed down to be so clean. For example, "raising the thief's self-respect" is itself a bargaining chip for the Jiangmen to raise their own value.

The Wang family was born too low back then, so they didn't understand many things at all. Wang Ziteng was also considered a momentary hero, but the lack of knowledge caused by his lack of background couldn't be solved. At least his staff had persuaded him many times, but Wang Ziteng was still stubborn.

But if you are tough, you have to distinguish the target. Now the Zhenbei Army with more than 6 elite soldiers and more than [-] elite cavalry is really not something that can be suppressed by the title of "Nine Provinces Control". A small military camp outside the same city, wasted more than two years?
"Understood!" Wang Ziteng also knew that this staff member was loyal to him, and he had handled a lot of things for him over the years. limited!"

"This—" the staff members were also very helpless, the emperor's patience was limited, but the patience of the four frontier armies was unlimited?In fact, he has already seen that the Shui family has long been impatient with his proprietor, and it is because of his identity that he did not do anything.

"Okay!" Wang Ziteng waved his hands impatiently. No matter how lacking in background he is, he also knows that strength is the basis for doing things. The Shui family really doesn't take it too seriously by relying on the "strength" of less than a hundred people in hand, " You are writing a memorial and sending it out.

It is said that the Zhenbei Army is seriously underpaid, the actual number of soldiers is seriously inconsistent with the book, and the Ministry of War is required to reduce the payment of food. Nowadays, the country is in a difficult situation, and if it can be saved, it can be saved. Even the Imperial Forest Army is only paid half the salary? "

"My lord, think twice!" The staff's expression suddenly changed, "We used this trick last time on the side of Zhendong Army, but it turned out to be unfavorable to both sides. Although it is true that the imperial court allocates too much food and salaries, we can benefit from it. Not just frontier soldiers!

The adults of the Ministry of War, the corresponding supervisors of the five armies' governor's mansions, the Shushu of the major treasuries, and even the father-in-laws in the palace, how many people are sharing the fat, I am afraid that even the Shui family of the Beijing Prince's Mansion can't tell!

What's more, the Zhenbei army is not the same as the Zhendong army. The ability of the Mu family is not on the same level as that of the Shui family. If the prince of Beijing Jing is really angry, the court far away in the capital may not be able to keep it. live my lord! "

"Then what do you say?" Wang Ziteng roared angrily.

"This—" the staff could only smile wryly, as the saying goes, "It's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice", with only such resources in hand, and a name that can't scare others, what can he do?

"Okay, you go back first, we'll talk about it tomorrow!" Wang Ziteng also knew that his request was embarrassing, so he could only wave his hands helplessly, signaling his staff to go back and rest.

At the same time, in the small woods less than a hundred steps outside the barracks.

"The moon is dark and the wind is high, killing people and setting fire to the sky." Wen Qing, who led a team of hundreds of households, gave a light, and then turned back to Yebu accept Xiaoqi, who came to report the situation, and asked, "How is the situation? How is the defense of that person?" ?”

"It's almost nothing." Xiao Qi showed disdain, "There are less than a hundred people in total, which is comparable to us, but only more than [-]% are sergeants, and there are others, even including more than a dozen servants of the royal family."

"What about the strength of those people?" Baihu then asked.

"They're all holding knives and guns." Xiao Qi was even more disdainful, "I can kill three of that kind of trash, and I said I would kill them with a little sweat. If I can bear to pay a little price, five of them don't matter!"

"Okay, let's go down and drink some hot wine and rest for a while, and I'll give you half a catty of meat each." Baihu nodded in satisfaction, "You don't have to follow this time, anyway, credit is indispensable!"

"Thank you, Lord Baihu!" Xiaoqi turned and left in ecstasy.

"Order the four archers Xiaoqi to start outflanking immediately, encircle all sides without leaving any dead ends, I don't want to hear the news of someone running out, let alone tell me that I failed!" Baihu immediately began to order, "Everyone cheer up!
Everyone has heard clearly, I believe you all know who our target is this time, and we must not allow any mistakes, otherwise you will know the consequences. Also, remember that slogan, right?Shout out a few times when you're done! "

"Yes, Master Baihu!" The nine small banners around agreed loudly, "No birth mother, a vacuum hometown!"

Two quarters of an hour later, Wang Zi entered the barracks.

"Ah—" A shrill scream broke the tranquility of the night, followed by panicked shouts, footsteps, and continuous screams in the barracks!

"What's going on?" Wang Ziteng opened his eyes in a daze, pushed the concubine beside him away, and then walked out of the room wearing a coat and carrying a knife, "Who dares to die."

"Duoduo!" Two bows and arrows shot at the wall beside him. If he hadn't participated in several battles and had a quick reaction, one of them would have pierced his shoulder!

"My lord, the matter is urgent!" The staff member stumbled over, playing some literature before he finished, "I don't know who did it, we must rush out immediately, and then go straight to the capital without stopping!"

"But, our people..." Wang Ziteng turned pale.

"What time is it, my lord can still take care of these things. If we die here, I'm afraid even the court won't ask more questions." The staff was anxious, and pulled Wang Ziteng straight to the stable, and pulled three more people who were waiting for him on the way. The scurrying soldiers said, "If we can return to the capital, there is still hope."

Can't we go back?Then you don't have to think about it so much!

"Let's go!" Wang Ziteng has been around until now, so he is naturally not a procrastination person. He took a last look at the room with some distress, where his favorite concubine was, "If I don't die today, I will never forget it." Today's humiliation!"

It's a pity that he had no chance. After just a while, the few people around him were all finished, including that loyal staff member.

"Wang Ziteng, my Marquis asked me to tell you that traitors will never end well!" said the leader of Baihu, holding a long knife, looking at Wang Ziteng who was struggling to get up.

"Wei Xu?" After getting up in front of him, Wang Ziteng was stunned for a moment, "Aren't you from the Zhenbei Army? I don't have much contact with Lord Wei, why is he like this?"

"Master Hou is only in charge of taking action. It is Wu Xun's lineage that wants you to die." The hundred households leading the team obviously didn't get all the information, so they only said one sentence according to normal understanding, and swung their long swords without hesitation!

"My lord, all the households have been cleaned up, and no fish slipped through the net!" Soon, an archer Xiaoqi came to report.

"I still believe in the skills of the brothers." Baihu nodded, took a broken iron tire bow from Xiaoqi's hand, and pressed it under a corpse, "Let's go, someone will clean it up!
How about our casualties?No big problem, right?Just now I saw that the battle was going well, there should not be many people who were unlucky, the statistics are clear and reported, Hou Ye will never treat his brothers badly! "

"Don't worry, my lord. Except for the three idiots who took a hit, everyone else is fine. Even the three of them have been cleaned and bandaged. After ten days and a half months, they will be a good man again!"

"That's good!" Baihu nodded in satisfaction.

The next morning, Taiyuan Beijing Palace.

"My lord, I found this under a dead body at the scene. It seems that a soldier discovered the problem and tried his best to leave evidence. The thieves retreated in a hurry before they could clean up the scene thoroughly." A servant held a broken iron Fetal bow report.

"Where is Wang Ziteng?" Bei Jing Wang Shuixun asked with a glance.

"Dead, his head was chopped off." The servant replied immediately.

"The weapons under the White Lotus Demon Empress, cut it!" Shui Xun saw something wrong at a glance, but didn't say much, "Let someone make a report, and report it according to what you see. Don't forget to add a sentence, just say This king asks for punishment!"

"Don't worry, my lord!" The servant turned and retreated.
