Chapter 114: Focus on the Southeast
Kang Bao said apologetically: "I originally wanted to find Li Yuanjun later, since Li Yuanjun has already come, then ask Li Yuanjun!" ”
Li Yang smiled slightly: "Guangzhou Prefecture is Nanhai County, but the harbor is in Panyu County, the two counties are close together, only a dozen miles apart, a Panyu water will connect the two counties, Lingnan Jingluo Mansion has a total of 30,000 troops, of which 10,000 are local militias, distributed in various states, and then 20,000 troops are stationed in Guangzhou, mainly distributed in three counties, one is naturally Nanhai County, with 10,000 troops, led by my brother Li Yu, and then Zengcheng County in the northeast of Guangzhou has a garrison of 5,000, led by the general Luo Huaiqing.
There is also an army stationed in Huaiji County, the northernmost part of Guangzhou, also 5,000 people, led by the general Wei Chihu, the thorn in this is Wei Chihu, his family has three generations of guards in Lingnan, has a wide range of contacts in Lingnan, has always been dissatisfied with my father, there are rumors that he has colluded with the eunuchs of the Southern Tang Dynasty, he has a letter of appointment from the Queen Mother, appointing him as the governor of the five prefectures of Lingnan, it is said that someone has seen it, but we have no evidence. ”
"Can your brother Li Yu listen to you?" Kang Bao asked again.
"General Kang doesn't know, Li Yu is my own brother, our biological father is Yuzhou Sima Yang Shanfu, led the army to quell the Nanzhao rebellion and died, I was only ten years old at that time, my brother was only five years old, my mother soon died of grief, now my father adopted us, Li Yu was not a person with soldiers, he likes music, before his father came to Chang'an to report on his work, he temporarily handed over 10,000 troops to him."
"And what about your two brothers?"
Li Yang shook his head, "Our second brother went to Taiyuan many years ago, and was caught by Zhu Zhu when he returned, and was later taken to Luoyang by Zhu Zhu, and after arriving in Luoyang, Zhu Zhu treated him well, and wanted to set him up as the emperor after capturing the Southern Tang Dynasty, but unfortunately he lacked self-discipline, and he was looking for fun all day long, and died of excessive drinking."
The fourth child is called Li Jun, he complained about his father's partiality since he was a child, but he himself is not angry, he fought cocks with a group of gentlemen all day long when he was a teenager, and he has been taught repeatedly, and now he is still in his twenties and has nothing to do, his father has been very disappointed in him, and he does not regard him as a son, and even looks down on him with the upper and lower levels of the palace, and does not pay attention to him, he basically has no status in the palace now. ”
"Then there is also a Zengcheng lord general, Luo Huaiqing?"
"Luo Huaiqing is my father's confidant, and he has always been loyal to my father, and his father put him in Zengcheng in order to contain Yu Chihu."
Kang Bao nodded, his eyes fell on the map again, and asked, "How does Li Yuanjun think our fleet will go?" ”
Li Yang thought for a while and said: "If you are cautious, the fleet can find an uninhabited island in the Lingding Ocean to pause, and then I will send someone to Nanhai County to inquire about the news, depending on the situation." ”
Kang Bao approved his plan, and said with a smile: "I see that the brothers are almost recovered, and the supplies and water are also on the ship, and we will set off early tomorrow morning!" ”
.........
Early the next morning, the soldiers boarded the big ship again, and the two hundred big ships left Mingzhou and sailed south.
At the same moment when the Mingzhou fleet left and set off, Guo Song's eyes also turned to the south.
In the regent official room, Song Tian presented a document to Guo Song, "Your Highness, this is just found from the records of Zuoyintai in the Southern Tang Dynasty, they suspect that Chengdu Baozhitang Medical Hall is the intelligence point of Yao Guangping in Quanzhou, but the news leaked, when they went to arrest people, most of the people in Baozhitang had already escaped, and they only caught one person, this person confessed, and the people of Baozhitang fled to Chang'an." ”
Guo Song looked at the file record, and ordered the guards, "Go and find Wang Yue quickly!" ”
The guards hurriedly went, and Guo Song asked again: "Can the Jin Wei Mansion set up an intelligence point in Quanzhou?" ”
"I went a few months ago, but there has been no news, the reason is unknown, and I am also quite worried, and a few days ago I transferred Yue Jing to join the army and took more than a dozen of his subordinates to Fuzhou to set up an intelligence point."
Guo Song did not speak, contemplating in front of the window with his hands silent, before the five states of Fu, Jian, and Quan, which were in the south of Liangzhejiang Province, were temporarily ignored by Guo Song, as the Jin army began to control Liangzhejiang Province, and Kang Bao led the army to Lingnan, Guo Song also began to pay attention to Fu, Jian, Quan and other five states.
Compared with Zhu Zhu, Li Na, Tian Yue and other feudal towns, Yao Guangping was indeed very low-key, never called the king, paid tribute to the Southern Tang Dynasty court on time every year, submitted a work report, and appointed officials to the Southern Tang Dynasty officials for the record, even better than Liu Qia, Ma Sui and others, so that everyone ignored him whenever they talked about the division of feudal towns.
In fact, Yao Guangping was an out-and-out independent kingdom, completely a feudal town, and now Guo Song was eager to know about him, but could only get some scattered information from merchants.
Not long after, Wang Yue, the commander of the internal guard, hurried over, knelt down on one knee and saluted, "The more the lowly king sees His Highness!" ”
Guo Song returned to his seat and handed the file that Song Tian had found to Wang Yue, "You can take a look first!" ”
Song Tian added in a whisper on the side: "It's about Quanzhou's intelligence point in Chang'an." ”
Wang Yue was stunned, and immediately opened the file to take a closer look, he frowned and said: "Your Highness, Baozhitang Medical Hall, it seems that Chang'an does not have this medical hall." ”
Guo Song shook his head, "If it were me, I would definitely not call Baozhitang again, but generally I will keep a little name, Baozi or Zhizi, in addition, the medicine and doctors used should be from Quanzhou, these are all clues, I will give you five days to find Quanzhou's intelligence point in Chang'an, and then, I need to know the situation in Quanzhou from them." ”
Wang Yue felt pressured, he didn't speak, and nodded, "Let's start investigating now!" ”
Guo Song said to Song Tian again: "I think there should be a detailed interrogation record, you can look it up again, find a detailed interrogation record, and maybe you can get more clues." ”
"Let's find out!"
Song Tian felt that his head was very big, they found this record from hundreds of thousands of records left by Zuo Yintai, and the interrogation record was likely to be ignored by them, and they had to find it again.
...........
Wang Yue returned to the official office, and immediately convened several competent officials of the investigation bureau to discuss, the total number of internal guards exceeded 10,000, divided into three departments, the internal affairs department, the investigation office and the emergency response department, the internal affairs department is the management department of the internal security, responsible for various logistics support, money and material management, there are seven officials and more than 1,000 people, the emergency response department is all soldiers, mainly to deal with various emergencies in Jingzhao Province, divided into four battalions, a total of 8,400 people, while the investigation department is only 300 people, but they are all the elite of the elite, In addition, a large number of Emergency Response Agency soldiers can be called upon at any time.
The Investigation Department is divided into three sub-offices, which are in charge of Wannian County, Chang'an County and Jingzhao County.
In the meeting hall, three directors of the branch office and several military officers listened to Wang Yue's briefing.
Wang Yue glanced at everyone: "His Royal Highness the King of Jin only gave us five days, although I can fight for a few more days, but I still hope to find Quanzhou's intelligence point in Chang'an within five days, everyone is very experienced, express your opinions!" ”
The chief officer of the first branch office is called Li Mengze, and his military rank has reached the general of Hu Benlang, which belongs to the highest level of the Zhonglang general, and the official rank has also reached the general of the fourth rank of Zhuangwu, of course, the military position of the commander Wang Yue has reached the general of the chariot cavalry, and the official rank is from the third rank of General Yunlu.
Li Mengze raised his hand and said: "The other party opened a medical hall in Chengdu, and it may not be necessary to open a medical hall in Chang'an, but it will definitely be a related industry, I infer that it is one of the three medical halls, pharmacies, and pharmacists, and you can find store records at the Municipal Bureau, and the newly opened stores in Chang'an within three years are suspected." ”
"It doesn't have to be a new store!"
The person who spoke was Tang Sheng, the director of the Second Investigation Bureau, and he said unhurriedly: "It is very likely that Yao Guangping has already had an intelligence point in Chang'an, and the Chengdu spies will flee to Chang'an, and there is a foothold here." ”
Li Mengze said with a smile: "General Tang is very reasonable, it is indeed possible that Chang'an has an intelligence point, but more than a dozen shopkeepers, doctors, and men of Baozhitang have fled to Chang'an, and they will definitely expand the intelligence point and open another branch or something, we can also check the newly opened branches within three years, and we can also find clues." ”
At this time, Zhou Ling, the director of the Third Investigation Bureau, said with a smile: "Not necessarily in Chang'an, maybe in suburban counties, Xinfeng County, Xianyang County, etc., Chang'an does not close the city gate at night, and for them, it is the same outside the city." ”
Wang Yue nodded, "Everyone is right, especially the newly opened stores within three years, it is indeed a breakthrough, I will assign the task first, and I will act immediately!" ”
