The closed door at the back door of the General Soldier's Mansion had just been opened, and more than thirty musketeers standing in three rows appeared in front of Sun Tianwu and the others.

"More than 30 musketeers want to stop more than 100 guards under my command, and this group of enemies also underestimates me..." This was the first thought that sprung up in Sun Tianwu's heart after seeing the musketeers.

Then, like an angry lion, he shouted at his subordinates: "Brothers, the other party will rush out with dozens of musketeers and kill them all...... As long as we break out of the General Military Mansion and out of Taiyuan City, we will win..."

"Kill....kill a musketeer, reward fifty taels of silver, brothers, rush..."

Whether it is because of his loyalty to Sun Tianwu or because of the temptation of silver.

As soon as Sun Tianwu's words were finished, the eyes of more than a hundred guards shot out one after another full of scorching gazes.

Then, he raised his weapon and rushed towards the back door of the General Soldier's Mansion with a roar.

If it was an ordinary Ming army musketeer, in the face of more than a hundred elites rushing towards him close at hand, these musketeers would definitely be so frightened that they collapsed on the spot. However, the more than 30 Haw Par Army musketeers standing in front of him stood motionless, flat-ended muskets, and quietly aimed at Sun Tianwu's personal guards, who were getting closer and closer to him.

"Shoot..."After a loud shout rang out among the more than thirty musketeers, the more than ten musketeers standing in the first row pulled the trigger without the slightest hesitation.

Then, regardless of whether the lead bullet he shot hit the target, he squatted directly on the ground and began to reload the musket in his hand.

And at the moment when the musketeers in the first row squatted, more than a dozen musketeers in the second row also pulled the trigger without hesitation.

"Bang Bang Bang Begins to reload the musket in hand.

This time. The musketeers in the third row also did not hesitate to pull the trigger in their hands.

After three rounds of gunfire. The first wave of more than a dozen guards who rushed to the back door of the General Soldier's Mansion had all fallen at the door and turned into corpses.

At this moment, more than a dozen musketeers in the first row, who had quickly completed reloading, had risen from the ground again, flat-ended muskets in their hands, and were ready to fire again...

Sun Tianwu, who was directly behind the gate and surrounded by guards, finally saw the strong combat effectiveness of the Haw Par Army musketeers and the sophisticated muskets equipped by the Haw Par Army for the first time.

With a shocked face, she couldn't help but let out an exclamation: "How can this be." Why are the musketeers here so powerful, how can they reload so fast....Also, why don't their muskets have arquebuses, is this the legendary flintlock pistol....can anyone tell me why these people are attacking the General Army, do they want to rebel..."

However, at this time, there was no time for him to continue thinking about this issue.

Because, the rear tiger and leopard army, which attacked from the main gate to the general military palace, had already rushed to the backyard. If they can't break out of the General Army yet. They are about to fall into a desperate situation of being caught between the front and back.

"My lord....the enemy's muskets are so powerful that we can't rush out at all...", a general rushed to Sun Tianwu with a frightened face.

Listen to the shouts of killing that are getting closer and closer behind him. Sun Tianwu also didn't care about his identity as the general soldier of Taiyuan, and shouted loudly: "If you can't rush out, you have to rush, do you want to be captured here..."

"Chong, let me continue to rush, I must rush out of the General Military Mansion and Taiyuan City..."

After Sun Tianwu finished speaking, his facial expression, which was always full of horror, was covered with despair, and after taking a deep breath, he shouted to his subordinates behind him: "Brothers, the chief soldier has given us food and clothing, and given us life... Now, it's time to repay the kindness of the commander-in-chief... At any cost, escort the chief soldier to rush out of the general soldier's mansion..."

As a military general, Sun Tianwu knows very well how to select soldiers to gain the hearts of the army and let the soldiers die for themselves. Therefore, the 300 soldiers who formed their own guard battalion were all orphans selected by themselves in the army.

Coupled with the fact that he took good care of these orphans, over time, in the hearts of these orphans, he became their reborn parents in this world.

And this, in the current situation, the real life and death situation, these guards will not hesitate to fight for their lives to protect the safety of their reborn parents.

However, in the face of flintlock muskets that surpassed this era, their single qiē was in vain.

Even if more than 30 musketeers can't completely block them, more than 30 musketeers are equipped with grenades that can deal a fatal blow to these guards at a critical moment.

And the battle that took place at the back gate of the General Soldier's Mansion ended with a series of dense explosions.

In front of a powerful grenade that has no eyes. Sun Tianwu, the general soldier of Taiyuan who was surrounded by everyone, did not escape this round of grenade attacks.

With a face full of unwillingness and despair before death, he was directly blown into a bloody corpse by the shrapnel of the grenade.

When Zhang Wu hurried to the Taiyuan General Military Mansion, the battle that took place in the General Military Mansion had ended.

In addition to the corpses that died in battle, the remaining servants of the General Military Mansion and Sun Tianwu's family had all been gathered in the lobby of the General Military Mansion.

As soon as Zhang Wu stepped into the General Soldier's Mansion on his front foot, Li Jiazhong, the commander of the musket battalion, ran over on his back foot and reported loudly: "My lord, Sun Tianwu, the chief soldier of Taiyuan, was killed by a grenade in the melee just now, and the rest of the people in the General Soldier's Mansion are already here." In addition, I have organized two or three teams to start confiscating Sun Tianwu's property. ”

"Is there a result?" Zhang Wu nodded and asked.

"I already know the approximate number jù. However, to the surprise of the last general, we only found less than 50,000 taels of silver in the general army mansion of Nuoda..."Li Jiazhong replied with a puzzled face.

Before Zhang Wu could speak, Vice General Wang behind him shouted: "Impossible, absolutely impossible..."

"My lord, as far as the last general knows, since Sun Tianwu took office as the chief soldier of Taiyuan, he can deduct at least 100,000 taels of silver from the soldiers' salaries every year. In addition to deducting military salaries, Lord Sun also encroached on a lot of private land and shops in Taiyuan Mansion, and these private fields and shops can also bring at least 100,000 taels of silver to Lord Sun every year. ”

"And Sun Tianwu has been in the Taiyuan General Military Mansion for six years, even if there is only 200,000 taels of silver a year, in six years, there are almost 1.2 million taels, and it is absolutely impossible to only have 50,000 taels of silver."

"So, the last general can be sure that Sun Tianwu must have hidden the silver in a place we don't know..."

Li Jiazhong, who was standing in front of him, had his eyes lit up and nodded thoughtfully.

At this time, Zhang Wu opened his mouth and said to Li Jiazhong: "Battalion Commander Li, I have heard General Wang's words... This general military palace has at least 1.2 million taels of silver hidden. I don't need to say what to do next....I want to know the results by tonight at the latest..."

"Yes, my lord...."Li Jiazhong answered with a look of heart.

Li Jiazhong's method was very simple, neither tortured Sun Tianwu nor tortured him to extract a confession.

Just let them take them to the backyard that was already full of corpses, and let them stand in the middle of the backyard full of corpses for a cup of tea, these family members and scary people who had not even seen the dead were already trembling with fright.

In order to leave this backyard as soon as possible, which is even bloodier than below, Li Jiazhong has not had time to speak, and the housekeeper and family members have already poured beans into a bamboo tube and said everything they know word for word.

What's more, even the private money he has saved for half his life is all said.

After opening the door of the dark room hidden by Sun Tianwu in the backyard, a huge secret room appeared in front of Zhang Wu.

Lighting the torch and walking into the secret room, what came directly into Zhang Wu's eyes were the boxes, one after another, neatly stacked in the secret room.

Although he had already guessed what was in the box, Zhang Wu, who saw so many boxes at one time, still couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart. After taking a deep breath, he shouted an order to Li Jiazhong behind him.

"Open the box..."

"Yes, my lord...."At Li Jiazhong's signal, the small copper lock locked on the box was directly smashed open by a Haw Par Army soldier with the butt of a gun. Then, very skillfully open the box...

In an instant, a piece of golden light shot out directly from the box and shot into the eyes of Zhang Wu and the others.

Even Zhang Wu, who was already prepared, couldn't help but exclaim because of his excitement: "Gold, it turned out to be gold..."

"Quick, open all the boxes in the back..."

The chests piled up, without exception, were all filled with gold.

According to the calculation of 10,000 taels of gold in one chest, all these chests add up, which is a full 100,000 taels. If converted into silver, it is almost a million taels.

The ten boxes in front of him gave Zhang Wu such a big shock, so what about the next hundred or so boxes?

With a face full of anticipation, Zhang Wu hurriedly opened his mouth and ordered: "Go on, open the rest of the box, I really want to see how much silver this Sun Tianwu has made in the Taiyuan General Military Mansion......"

The next hundred or so chests, without exception, were all filled with various kinds of silver.

In addition, Zhang Wu also found a small room in the secret room, and the alley of the small room was filled with all kinds of valuable treasures, celebrity calligraphy and paintings.

At this time, Li Jiazhong, who already knew the approximate number, reported with excitement on his face: "My lord, there are a total of 100,000 taels of gold and 1.3 million taels of silver hidden here. As for the treasures and celebrity calligraphy and paintings in these boxes, I estimate that they are worth at least two million taels of silver..."

Zhang Wu, who opened his mouth because of shock, asked loudly: "In other words, there are a total of 4.3 million taels worth of property hidden here..."

"Yes, just more, no less," Li Jiazhong affirmed loudly. (To be continued......)
