"Master Baojun will give me a group of familiar men to help me trick me into opening the doors of other warehouses. You don't need to worry about the rest of the matter. Don't worry..."
Baojun nodded, "Your method is good. I will give you all my men... I will leave two personal soldiers to see His Majesty. You must be careful!"
The two parted ways, and Ma Ming took over the entire Beixincang area!
After all, Ma Ming studied in a Chinese military academy. Before doing anything, he must first restore the terrain in his mind. If there is no sandbox, he will create a sandbox in his mind.
This mission involves sweeping six warehouses in the city from north to south. These warehouses are all connected together and separated from each other by high walls. It is absolutely difficult for people with very high heights and no light skills to cross.
Of these six warehouses, Beixincang is at the northernmost end, and Old Taicang is at the southernmost end. Old Taicang is still adjacent to Prince Dun's Mansion, separated by two or three alleys.
Prince Dun's Mansion is located inside Chaoyang Gate. It can be seen that the area of these six warehouses is very large, extending southward from Dongzhimen to the north of Chaoyang Gate.
With such a large area and only 500 new imperial troops in hand, it is not easy to complete this task! Killing is very simple, the key is not to let anyone escape, and the information cannot be leaked.
This requires a strategy. Baojun is the Minister of Military and Aircraft, and his subordinates have very familiar faces. Basically, there are many people he knows in the capital, and it would be a good idea to use them to deceive others.
Ma Ming discussed with these people for a while and finally decided to pay attention. Taking advantage of the night, the five hundred soldiers were divided into five teams and went directly to the five warehouses to lurk.
Boom boom... boom boom boom...
"Open the door...open the door...According to Lord Baojun's order, we are conducting a temporary inspection of the warehouse...Hurry and open the door..."
Several Baojun's soldiers began to knock on the door. The warehouse managers and warehouse soldiers inside had actually known for a long time that Beixincang was under investigation, but they just didn't know the final result of the investigation.
Just as I was feeling anxious, the door was smashed.
"Who...who knocked on the door at night? Are you liars? Where can someone check the accounts in the middle of the night?" The person inside the door didn't have the confidence to speak.
The soldiers outside had already thought of their words, "There is so much nonsense. Why does Master Baojun have to distinguish between day and night when checking the warehouse... There is a note from the Lord here. Take a look and open the door quickly..."
A two-finger-wide note was inserted along the crack of the door. It indeed had Master Baojun's seal on it!
"Um... is Master Baojun outside?"
"No... Master Baojun is checking in Beixin warehouse. Time is tight. Let's connect it first and check the six warehouses simultaneously!"
As soon as they heard that Baojun didn't come, but that Lord Baojun's men had come, the manager inside felt half at ease.
The people outside deliberately said angrily, "What's going on? What's going on if you don't let me in in the middle of the night in this cold weather? We're freezing to death...hurry up and prepare some hot soup or something to eat. This job is really terrible." There’s no oil or water at all!”
As soon as the manager heard this, he immediately felt happy. He had to listen carefully. The words "oil and water" were spoken on the other side, which was a hint that he wanted to ask for a bribe!
I'm not afraid that you want it, I'm afraid that you don't want the money. As long as you ask for money, as long as you are willing to accept the money, what should I be afraid of?
"Open the door..." The manager finally felt relieved. The heavy door made a sour sound. He slowly opened it and said with a smile, "Brother, you have been busy all night. There must be hot water and soup, and you have your heart..."
Poof! Before he finished his flattering words, and before he had given away the money he wanted to give away, the manager standing inside the door felt a chill in his heart, followed by a sharp pain.
A bright bayonet penetrated the front of the heart, and a bloody bayonet tip emerged from the back. The face of a Fujian Wuyi mountain man was looking at him coldly, and he struck with hatred and ruthlessness.
"You..." As soon as he opened his mouth, blood gushed out. The bayonet was suddenly pulled out, and a stream of blood arrows spurted Lao Gao. The manager squatted down against the limp body on the door axis.
A hundred new Royal Forest troops rushed in like crazy, shouting, "Kneel down! Shut up! Kneel down! Shut up... Anyone who makes a sound will be killed without mercy, and anyone who dares to resist will be killed without mercy..."
Poof! Poof! A few Ku soldiers who were slow to kneel were stabbed to death with bayonets, and the rest were kneeling on the ground.
Since the founding of the Qing Dynasty, the capital has never encountered military disasters, except for foreign devils. It has been very safe for two hundred years, so these soldiers and civilians have been trained to talk tough, but when they see real killings, they immediately wet their pants.
This new group of imperial guardsmen are completely unreasonable. They kill people as soon as they enter the house. This is not how the common people of the capital should behave!
Under the emperor's feet, even if there is any conflict, you have to talk things over first, collect some money first, quarrel first... Taking action is a last resort that cannot be reconciled, let alone killing people.
Today, the God of Death rushed through the door, making no sense at all!
His hands were tied up with hemp rope and his mouth was stuffed with straw. The entire operation of taking over the granary only took 20 minutes. A professional is a professional.
The company commander who led the team didn't need a key. He just pried open the warehouse of No. B and stabbed it with a bayonet under the food bunker. As expected, it was all wood and rat bunkers.
"Ouch... I thought that in the most kind place in the capital, people would have a lot of conscience, but it turns out they are even more evil-minded than our greedy county magistrate!"
"Reply to General Ma Ming... Old Taicang has been controlled. It is still a rat warehouse, and at least half of it is corrupt!"
At around one o'clock in the morning, all six official warehouses in the Forty-Nine City were controlled by the Yulin New Army. Fifty-three lives were killed in one night, but fortunately no news was leaked!
Ma Ming inspected warehouses one by one and issued orders one after another: "From now on, the official warehouse cannot be opened without His Majesty's instructions. You must strictly guard the safety of the official warehouse!"
"Registration starts from now on. All warehouse managers, warehouse clerks, and warehouse soldiers in the six warehouses must be registered...live and alive must be counted!"
"Trace their families, release news to appease them, and then monitor them. We can't let their families talk nonsense!"
When inspecting the old Taicang at the southernmost point, Ma Ming looked south, looking at the dark outline of the palace. The high wall blocked his sight. The low and dilapidated residences outside the palace wall seemed like two worlds.
"Prince Dun! You have to act faster... There are seven granaries outside the city. You have to act quickly to control them!"
Ma Ming completed his mission, but Baojun was still struggling. At this moment, he finally met Emperor Tongzhi!
Baojun broke into Master Sai's residence at night and almost scared Da Sixi and Xiao Sixi to death, but Baojun is the chief assistant of a first-class military aircraft, so you can't stop him!
He dared to break into the emperor's foreign residence at one o'clock in the morning. If he didn't have a big deal, he wouldn't dare to do it!
"Lord Baojun... His Majesty is already asleep. I'm afraid it's not possible for you to see His Majesty at this time..."
"Father-in-law...it is a matter of military and national importance. This is a more urgent situation than the military situation. Do you want to delay? Do you have to take responsibility?"
Da Sixi shrank his head and did not dare to speak. He quickly went to the main hall and knocked on the door in a low voice.
