51 Spy Warfare Station

More than ten miles outside Daxing Town, in a mountain range and dense forest, there are faintly gray-white buildings towering in the middle.

Outside the building, a wall is more than a foot high, separating the inside and outside, making it difficult to observe each other's movements.

Between the high walls, there is a tower whistle every few zhang, on which stand two Hongmen warriors who are fully engrossed and attentively watching the movements around them, and they can see clearly from a high level when there is a wind and grass.

Within the high walls, the faint sound of dogs barking one after another also made people feel that the internal security was deep.

Occasionally, a well-concealed carriage came in and out of it, and apart from the driver who drove it, it was impossible to see what was being transported in the stables towed behind the carriage.

Entering the high wall, sure enough, there were shadows of the guards on duty everywhere, as well as a large number of hunting dogs, wagging their tails and patrolling back and forth under the guidance of the guards.

Suddenly, a familiar face appeared in the aisle, but it was An Xianguo, who followed Tan Songyun to Daxing Town.

An Xianguo was transferred to Daxing Town, originally because he had other tasks, and this was the place where he really worked.

This building, long before An Xianguo and Tan Songyun were transferred to Daxing Town, had already started construction under the leadership of Wan Liang, and it was not until a few days before An Xianguo and their arrival that this group of buildings was completed.

An Xianguo walked through the walkway into a large two-story building in the complex, where a carriage dragged the stables through the entrance of the building and stopped in the hall of the building.

Only An Xianguo and the two Hongmen members were among them in the hall, receiving the newly arrived carriage, and after the coachman parked the carriage in the hall, he turned around and left, without the slightest delay in it.

After the idlers left, An Xianguo pulled up the bamboo curtain in front of the stable, and lifted a man with his head covered by a black cloth bag.

"Member number 0112, welcome to the spy war center, from now on, you will live in the spy war center for half a year, learning the necessary knowledge and skills." Uncovering the cloth cover on the man's head, An Xianguo calmly explained the situation to the man in front of him.

"During the spy war station, you can't show your true face, you must wear the hood in front of you when you go out, and you can't show people by your real name, your current number 0112 is what you will call in the spy war center for the next six months, understand?"

"Understood!" The man who had just taken off his mask revealed his original face, but he was a rather clever young man, but when he spoke, his voice was a little exotic.

"Remember, for the next six months, you will eat and drink in this building, and if you don't have to, try not to speak in front of others, especially people with accents like you, so as not to reveal your origins." An Xianguo frowned, he really had a headache about this young man's unique accent.

"Understood." After the young man replied, he was taken down by a Hongmen soldier who followed behind An Xianguo and placed in a separate room in this building.

Soon after the young man left, another carriage arrived, and the same man with a mask on his head was helped down, and An Xianguo explained the same words, and after telling the basic rules and things to pay attention to, he settled down again.

Repeatedly, on this day, An Xianguo only received a steady stream of members who were brought here by carriages, including young women, middle-aged men, disabled people, and young men, all with different faces and accents, but all of them were ordinary-looking, and they were not noticeable at all in the crowd.

Seeing this, I am afraid that all the officials have also guessed the use of this so-called spy war center from the name and deeds of this so-called spy war station.

Since the Ming Dynasty, the formation of the spy organization has reached the highest peak of all dynasties, and the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, who has three factories and one guard, monitors the every move of these ministers around him, and is also responsible for understanding the movements of hostile forces such as the Jurchens in the northeast and the Mongols in the north.

On the Hongmen side, it also pays attention to the supervision and investigation of internal and external affairs, and the internal guards are responsible for the supervision of the changes of the people and officials such as Bengang and Jilong Town.

Externally, there is a foreign guard intelligence system, which has now been deployed in Ryukyu, Wa and Jiangnan of the Ming Dynasty, bringing countless intelligence to Hongmen.

However, even the three factories and one guard of the Ming Dynasty are actually not qualified espionage organizations, and many of their members are local bribery personnel to investigate, and they have really received spy training, and none of them have been trained.

After all, Li Tianyang traveled from the later generations, and under the influence of excellent spy war TV series such as "The Pretender" and "Latent" in the later generations, Li Tianyang scoffed at the simple and crude spy training methods of this era.

When the external guard and internal guard were established before, Li Tianyang and the others also used methods such as buying and placing personnel, but that was also because Hongmen hastily established these two organizations by himself, and when he had no experience and no foundation, he naturally had to keep everything simple.

But now, Hongmen can no longer develop its two organizations as before, whether in terms of financial and material resources or personnel reserves.

Like the outer guards, because of problems such as knowledge and vision, although they still collected a lot of information for Hongmen, they were relatively more useless and repetitive information, which brought a lot of trouble to the sorting of intelligence.

On the side of the internal guard, there are also many members who expose themselves early without knowing because they don't know how to hide their identities and other issues, and they are equal to nothing about the supervision situation around them.

This is the shortcoming of intelligence officers who have not received strict training, and now, under the condition that the Red Squad as a whole is implementing the elite soldier policy, the outer and internal guards will also begin to train their own professional intelligence officers.

How to disguise one's identity, how to hand over to the handover personnel, how to quickly integrate into the target's social circle, how to observe the target's psychology and behavior, etc., are all things that a qualified spy officer needs to know, and these are the things that most of the existing personnel inside and outside the Hongmen guard are missing.

An Xianguo, as the person in charge of the Ministry of Internal Security of Bengang before Hongmen, has a certain foundation in this regard, and Li Tianyang racked his brains to write a book on espionage in combination with the military books on espionage in this era, so as to train qualified talents.
