As the number of men of sacrifice in black decreased, the resistance of the Ji Manor was also greatly weakened!
The soldiers of the Divine Arms Battalion began to clear out the enemies in small teams!
Zhu Zhanji rode on his horse and held a spear in his hand, commanding the entire battle.
As the Divine Arms Battalion invaded the inner court, the entire Ji Manor's defensive line collapsed. The Embroidered Uniform Guards and servants who stubbornly resisted were all killed, and most of the remaining surrendered!
The commander of the West Mountain Camp, Hu Tian, caught up with the team that was protecting Ji Gang's family. After a round of killing, he was covered in blood. Then, he brought back a group of trembling wives, concubines, young masters, and young ladies. He counted his subordinates and found that nearly a hundred people had been injured. It was no less than a big battle. He reported with a depressed expression,"Great-grandson, we invaded the Ji Manor's inner court and captured more than a hundred of Ji Gang's wives, concubines, and children, but we didn't find any trace of Ji Gang!”
"Ji Gang ran away?" Zhu Zhanji was puzzled.”
Hu Tian nodded. It was more or less like this. Ji Gang used the government soldiers and death warriors to stall the government troops, then escaped with his confidants.
Woof woof woof!
Woof woof woof!
Dog barks came from the street.
Zhu Zhanji's heart skipped a beat. There was a big black dog beside Ji Gang. Could it have been captured by Wang Tong?
Hu Tian also noticed the barking of the dogs on the street and sighed in admiration. If it wasn't for the fact that his great-grandson had ordered Wang Tong to lead his men to block the streets around the Ji Manor and prohibit pedestrians from walking on the streets, Ji Gang might have escaped.
Zhu Zhanji noticed that the battle at the Ji Manor had ended and that some of the soldiers had begun to plunder money and goods. He immediately ordered,""Order the troops to gather, count the losses, and take all the prisoners of the Ji Manor to the imperial prison!”
Hu Tian hesitated for a moment, then turned around and asked,""What about the surrendered servants and Jinyiwei?”
Zhu Zhanji thought of those people that Zhao Yu had killed and said coldly,""Kill them all!"
"Understood!"
Hu Tian didn't dare to underestimate the young imperial grandson anymore. He was already very scheming and decisive at such a young age.
The Crown Prince had raised such a young tiger. Could the King of Han really win?
……
"Grand Sun! I'm overjoyed!"
"Hahahaha!"
"Great grandson, I caught Ji Gang!”
Wang Tong laughed loudly as he strode in. His triumphant laughter could be heard from afar. His subordinates were holding Ji Gang and a dozen prisoners.
Zhu Zhanji rode his horse over and praised Wang Tong,"Well done!"
Wang Tong laughed and said," What a coincidence. I was searching the streets when I found an empty house, so I asked my men to go in and rest. I didn't expect Ji Gang to come out from the secret passage in the courtyard and be surrounded by us archers and fire masters. I want to laugh when I think about his stunned expression!”
"Lord Ji, we meet again!" Zhu Zhanji chuckled.”
Ji Gang still had that arrogant expression on his face as he spat,""Zhu Di burned the bridge after crossing the river. I didn't expect that I, Ji Gang, would actually be placed in the hands of a brat like you. It's really God's will!”
"I don't know if it's God's will or not, but you'll die if you offend me!"”
"What?!"
Ji Gang stared at Zhu Zhanji and said in disbelief,"Just because of that matter in the imperial prison, you slandered the emperor and killed me?”
Zhu Zhanji nodded and shrugged mischievously.
Ji Gang was so depressed that he vomited blood. He wanted to slap himself. Since he became the commander of the Jinyiwei, he had killed countless people and offended countless people. He had thought of countless endings, but he never dreamed that he would die because of an official duty like patrolling the imperial prison!
The Divine Arms Battalion captain ran over and reported,""Grand Sun, this general has brought people to search Ji Gang's mansion. Other than some antique calligraphy and paintings placed in the hall for people to admire, there are no other financial matters!”
"Nonsense!" Wang Tong said angrily. How could Ji Gang's family not have money? Brat, there must be a limit to corruption.”
The lieutenant hurriedly knelt down and smiled bitterly." How would I dare? I really didn't find any money. All I found underground was an arsenal. Please investigate!"”
Wang Tong and Hu Tian were dumbfounded. They glared at Ji Gang, wishing they could eat him up.
"Ji Gang, where did you hide the money?" Wang Tong raised his knife and asked.”
Hu Tian placed the knife on Ji Gang's neck and glared at him.""Hurry up and tell me, or I'll kill you!”
Zhu Zhanji was speechless. These two had perfectly expressed the deep meaning of the saying," A thousand miles of government is only for money!"
Ding!
Congratulations to the host for completing the mission!
[Mission Reward: Ji Gang's Treasure House!]
[Treasure house address: 5 meters below the backyard pool.]
[The key to the treasure vault is in the Black-Furred Dog's stomach.]
Zhu Zhanji stared at the big black dog. No wonder Ji Gang ran away with his pet. So this was the key.
Ji Gang naturally knew that he would not be able to escape death. He laughed crazily and said,""I've hidden all the gold, silver, and jewelry in a secret place. You can't find it even in your dreams. Even if you find it, you can't enter. Hahaha…"
"Is that so?"
Zhu Zhanji sneered disdainfully and waved his hand."Empty the pond in the backyard of the Ji Manor!”
Ji Gang's expression changed drastically. He glared at Zhu Zhanji and said," Even if you know the location of the treasure vault, you can't open it. I've sealed off the surroundings of the treasure vault with iron and it's connected to the royal lake. Forcefully breaking it will only cause the terrain to collapse. At that time, half of the capital will be buried with me. Unless you let me go, you'll never know where the key is hidden..."
Woof!
A dog barked and a sword hummed!
Zhu Zhanji dismembered the big black dog, revealing a finger-sized ceramic box from its stomach.
Ji Gang's words were held back in his stomach. He looked at Zhu Zhanji in confusion and despair. His face was ashen as he muttered,"I killed all the craftsmen and didn't even tell my wife and children. How did you know?”
