Daming: Dad, you are really not good at governing the country
Chapter 571 Wang Chongli went to the military camp overnight to transfer all the documents and accou
The night was as dark as ink, and the men in black swarmed in like a tide emerging from the depths of darkness.
They were all agile and fierce in their attacks, and each of their moves was filled with murderous intent.
After a fierce battle, Wang Chongli felt that his physical strength was rapidly draining away like sand in an hourglass.
He had several wounds on his body, bleeding profusely.
Like a gorgeous yet ominous flower, it bloomed wildly on Wang Chongli's clothes and soon dyed them blood red.
Just when Wang Chongli felt that he was overwhelmed and his consciousness seemed to be swallowed by endless darkness, he keenly captured the uniqueness of the surrounding environment.
This place turned out to be an ancient relic with many mysterious and strange legends and taboos.
A light bulb went off in Wang Chongli's head and he came up with a plan.
He cleverly used the unique terrain and hidden mechanisms in the ruins, like a commanding general, and calmly led away some of the men in black.
At the same time, Wang Chongli seized the opportunity and attacked as swiftly as a tiger descending from a mountain, successfully subduing the leading man in black.
Wang Chongli's eyes widened with anger, he placed his sword firmly on the neck of the black-clothed leader, and shouted sternly: "Tell me! Who ordered you to do this?
Why did you steal my files?"
Although the black-clad leader was restrained and his body was trembling slightly, he still kept his back straight.
There was no fear on his face, and his eyes were shining with determination and resolve.
The black-clad leader sneered, his laughter full of disdain.
"Humph, Wang Chongli, do you think no one knows what you did?
My family has guarded the secrets related to the Shanxi Military Horse Case for generations, and we will not allow the conspiracy to succeed because of your document.
Besides, we have already noticed the organization behind you."
Wang Chongli was startled and asked, "How did you know this?
What family is this, and what old grudge do you have against me?"
The black-clad leader slowly raised his head, his eyes revealing deep hatred, as if he was recalling his family's years of humiliation.
He spoke word by word: "My family and the organization behind you have a long-standing feud.
You are trying to overthrow the imperial court and disturb the peace of the world. How can we sit idly by and watch?
Once this document falls into your hands, the consequences will be disastrous.
My family has the mission of protecting justice, and we will never let your conspiracy succeed, even at the cost of our lives."
After saying this, the leader in black turned his head to the side and no longer looked at Wang Chongli. His posture showed his determination not to surrender.
From the leader in black, Wang Chongli learned that they were from a mysterious family that had a feud with his own family.
The robbery and murder were intended to prevent the document that could reveal the family's secret truth from falling into the hands of others, and also to stop the conspiracy organized by Wang Chongli.
Wang Chongli endured the severe pain all over his body and staggered onto the horse.
Blood continued to ooze out of the wound, staining the saddle red.
His consciousness gradually blurred and his vision went dark.
However, when I think of that important document and everything involved behind it.
Wang Chongli bit his tongue hard, and relying on the clarity brought by the slight pain, he swung the reins hard and galloped towards the military camp.
Along the way, the cold wind cut his face like a knife, but it also kept Wang Chongli a little awake.
On the way, we passed a small town.
The streets that were once bustling with people are now deserted and dead silent.
Most of the shops had their doors and windows closed, with only a few faint lights shining through the gaps in the door panels.
Occasionally, there were a few pedestrians who looked hurried and walked in a panic, as if something terrible was chasing them from behind.
Wang Chongli was startled, knowing that the situation was becoming increasingly critical.
He didn't dare to stay any longer, so he spurred his horse and galloped towards the military camp.
Wang Chongli was anxious on horseback, with a lot of thoughts in his mind. The organization he belonged to had always been under the banner of "reform of government".
Declaring that he would overthrow the current corrupt court rule and establish a new regime that is more fair and just.
The organization painted a beautiful blueprint for Wang Chongli: under the rule of the new regime, the people would no longer be oppressed by corrupt officials and would be able to live and work in peace.
Wang Chongli witnessed the suffering of the people since he was a child and had unshakable faith in the organization's ideals, so he always served the organization loyally.
This time, obtaining documents related to the Shanxi military horse case was an important task assigned to him by the organization.
However, in the process of executing the mission, Wang Chongli gradually noticed something strange.
He discovered that some of the organization's actions were not as simple as they seemed, and seemed to be hiding ulterior motives.
Especially from the mouth of the leader in black, we learned that once this document is used by the organization, it may cause greater chaos and bring huge disasters to the underworld and the court.
This put Wang Chongli into deep conflict.
On the one hand, Wang Chongli found it difficult to give up his trust and loyalty to the organization over the years. After all, the organization was once his hope to change the world.
On the other hand, Wang Chongli's conscience would not allow him to watch a possible disaster happen.
Finally, Wang Chongli, covered in wounds, rode his horse wildly to the vicinity of the military camp like a wounded lion.
The dust raised by the horse's hooves seemed to be a testimony to his hardships along the way.
At this time, a bonfire was burning in the military camp. The raging flames were like roaring beasts, reflecting the serious and cold faces of the soldiers.
The patrolling Ming army soldiers walked in a hurry, and their armor collided with each other, making crisp and rapid sounds.
It echoed in the silent night like a tense war song.
Wang Chongli went straight to his trusted general Zhao Hu, and his tone was as urgent as a warning bell: "Hu Zi, the situation is urgent and cannot be delayed.
He quickly summoned the personnel in the general's office who were in charge of clerical and accounting matters, and transferred all the documents and accounts related to Shanxi's military horses to a secret location.
We must ensure that no trace is left and that the Imperial Guards are not aware of it at all.
Also, tell my brothers to be on high alert. No one is allowed to act rashly without my order!"
Zhao Hu looked serious and immediately responded with a fist: "Don't worry, Lord Wang, I will do my best to handle it properly!"
After saying this, he quickly disappeared into the tent like a black shadow.
Soon, relevant personnel gathered in the tent.
The candlelight flickered in the tent, and the dim light and shadows danced on everyone's faces, like a group of restless ghosts.
Everyone's expression was as solemn as if they were being pressed down by a huge rock, and the tense atmosphere almost froze the air.
One of them was a middle-aged official named Li Ming. He looked embarrassed and his brows were tightly furrowed into the shape of the Chinese character "川".
He was born in a poor family and studied poetry and books since childhood.
Having struggled in the quagmire of officialdom for many years, Li Ming is well aware of the dangers and difficulties involved.
Having finally secured a place in the army, Li Ming cherishes this hard-earned stability very much.
Therefore, he has always been cautious and treads carefully in his actions.
Li Ming bowed and spoke earnestly with a slight tremor in his voice.
"Sir Wang, the risk of transferring the files is too great!
There are many people in the military camp and they all have many mouths to feed. If the news leaks out accidentally, it will be discovered by the Embroidered Uniform Guards.
Then our entire military camp, along with the lives of our brothers, will be doomed!
I hope you will think twice before acting and make a long-term plan."
