When Chu Ge came to the palace martial arts training ground, Zhao Ziliang was practicing martial arts, so he didn't bother, and after Zhao Ziliang finished practicing, he saw him standing on the edge of the martial arts training ground, so he beckoned to him and motioned him over.

After cultivating for an hour, coupled with the hot weather, Zhao Ziliang was soaked all over his body, and only after taking off his wet clothes and changing into clean clothes did he ask, "What's the urgency of coming here so early?" ”

Chu Ge hugged his fists and said: "King, late yesterday night, a Hongling messenger rushed from Hua Thorn Zimo to deliver a battle report, Yang Guangliang received the order of Wei Meng of the Fifth Legion, and immediately united with the men and horses of the general of Hua Thorn Zimo Bol Cheng to take the initiative to defeat the 3,000 cavalry of the Great Food Army that crossed the border, and then Yang Guangliang and the supervising army Cao Decao and Deputy General Huang Yongyi led the army to defeat the most taboo Great Food Router, and captured the border towns of Guchang City and Mashad City of the Great Food Country in one fell swoop, killing more than 5,000 enemies and capturing more than 600 people! ”

Zhao Ziliang was very happy after hearing this: "Oh, is it? It seems that Yang Guangliang still has some ability! ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Ziliang thought of something and asked: "He led his troops to attack and defeat the Great Food Army that crossed the border to obey the order, could it be that crossing the border to attack Guchang City and Mashad City of the Great Food Country was also obeying military orders?" What exactly was the order Wei Meng gave him? ”

Chu Ge clenched his fists and said: "This is also what Weichen wants to know, if the general leads the troops outside without the edict of the royal court, he will lead the army into the neighboring country to attack the city without authorization, this is a very serious behavior, and now my country and the Great Food Country have not completely entered a hostile state, and the general stationed at the border has no right to act without authorization, so this morning Weichen rushed to the Military Aircraft Institute and immediately sent someone to Huazhuzimo to investigate the matter!" But ??????"

Zhao Ziliang frowned: "But what, if you have something to say, just say it, don't spit it out!" ”

"Yes!" Chu Ge continued: "However, if the military order issued by Wei Meng is vague, Weichen thinks that it is better not to pursue this matter, so as not to discourage the enthusiasm of the soldiers in front, after all, this time the Great Food Country has gone too far, as far as Weichen knows, the Honglu Temple has been negotiating with the Great Food Country, hoping and warning them to immediately withdraw the people who crossed the border, but the Great Food Country has been clamoring, and Yang Guangliang has also sent people to negotiate with the confrontational Great Food Army several times, warning them, and letting them withdraw, but the Great Food Eater does not buy it at all, Let Yang Guangliang take Guchang City and Mashard, on the one hand, let the Great Food Country know that we will never dare to fight, which can be regarded as a little lesson for them; On the other hand, by taking the initiative to cross the line and enter the Great Food Country this time, we can also alleviate the grievances of the soldiers and the emotions of all the officials and people of Western Qin, if we repeatedly do not respond to the provocations of the Great Food Country, the people are afraid that they will be very disappointed in the royal court."

Zhao Ziliang thought for a while, nodded and said: "What you said makes sense, just do it, what should be investigated is still investigated!" After the investigation is over, report the results to the king! ”

"Understood! Does the ・・・・・・ King still need to give instructions on Yang Guangliang's next move? ”

"Instructions? No, you don't! Since he, Yang Guangliang, led his troops into the territory of the Great Food Country, he will toss it for the time being, and before the Great Food Country does not react, Wang Ting will not say anything for the time being! Doesn't Big Food Country like to provoke? This king wants to see how Mansur responds this time! ”

"Yes! If the king has no other orders, Weichen will take his leave! ”

After Chu Ge left, Zhao Ziliang studied the current situation and ordered someone to find Dugu Wenqing.

Soon, Dugu asked the customs to come to the Qinzheng Palace, "Meet the king!" I don't know what the king ordered to call Weichen? ”

Zhao Ziliang beckoned: "I have something to ask you, didn't you say last time that the Great Food Country sent a lot of small works to our country to conduct hostile activities in the name of missionary investigations?" ”

Dugu was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart that he didn't know why the king had come up with the idea of asking about this matter today, so he came back to his senses and replied, "Yes, the king." In the name of mission, these big food and false missionaries are exploring the deployment of military forces and the terrain of mountains and rivers in various parts of our country! ”

Zhao Ziliang said: "You roughly tell me how you found it and how you dealt with it!" ”

"Yes!" Dugu asked, and immediately said it, obviously he was quite familiar with this matter.

"At first, it was found that there were missionaries from the Great Food Country who spied on the military situation of our country in the name of missionary affairs in Guishan Prefecture, and some local people found that a monk of the Great Food Missionary often inquired about the local garrison in addition to preaching, and then there was a military camp sentry who found that this person was sneaky and often haunted near the military camp, so there was a suspicion, and after catching it, he reported it to the Guishan Prefecture Government, and the government sent officials to patrol and search his residence, and found some maps drawn by Kanyu, which are the topographic maps of the mountains and rivers of Guishan Prefecture. It not only depicts the topography of mountains and rivers in detail, but also marks the deployment of military points and troops, which is extremely detailed. The government of Guishan Prefecture did not dare to slack off, and immediately interrogated him severely, and at the same time reported it to the Government Council. At that time, Cen Shen was seriously ill, and it was Wechen who dealt with the matter, and after receiving the report, Wechen immediately gave an order to the General Administration of Patrol and Arrest, and asked them to give instructions to the patrol and arrest bureaus in various places to strictly investigate the preaching situation of the monks of the Great Food, and this investigation found a big problem, but all the states and counties close to the Great Food Country found the great food and fine work of pretending to be monks, and then the internal guard yamen intervened and took over the case, and the specific situation of Weichen is unknown!"

Zhao Ziliang pondered for a moment, and instructed Dugu Wenqing: "In view of the fact that the Great Food Country uses monks to enter our country to engage in hostile activities such as espionage under the guise of monks and missionaries, from now on, the Government Council must immediately draft relevant bans, prohibiting all foreign missionaries, monks and other sect personnel from entering our country to preach at will, and all border checkpoints, outposts, and even the passes and patrol bureaus in the hinterland of our country must be vigilant, strictly investigate the identities of personnel who are not members of our Western Qin sect, and once anything suspicious is found, immediately conduct a detailed investigation!" ”

Dugu asked: "Yes, when Weichen goes back, he will order someone to draft the relevant ban!" ”

The fact that the Great Food Country sent a large number of missionaries to infiltrate and spy on intelligence made Zhao Ziliang a little dissatisfied with the ability of the internal guard yamen, and such a large-scale espionage activity was not discovered by the internal guard yamen in time, but the military and local patrol bureaus were the first to discover the situation.

After Dugu asked, Zhao Ziliang sent the eunuch to pass on Zhou Shan, the commander of the internal guard, to come for questioning. Zhou Shan was one of the first people to follow Zhao Ziliang, when Zhao Ziliang was the governor of the Broken Leaf Governor's Mansion and rebuilt the Broken Leaf Governor's Mansion, Zhou Shan was the patrol captain in his army, and he was responsible for inspecting military discipline.

"Weichen Zhou Shan, see the king!"

The internal guard yamen is neither a military system nor a patrol system, it is a system of its own, and if you have to define them, they should belong to the secret arrest.

"Get up, I brought you here today to send a large number of missionaries to infiltrate our country in the name of missionary work, but in fact secretly carry out espionage and hostile activities, this king is a little unintelligible, this should be the internal affairs of your internal guard yamen, but let the military and local patrol bureaus take the lead first, and a large number of enemy countries have infiltrated your internal guard yamen without being the first to discover and get the news, what do you have to explain to this king?"

Zhou Shan had long known that Zhao Ziliang might be guilty in this matter, which was originally a major mistake, and he didn't expect to shirk responsibility, and he was rectifying and improving the relevant functions of the internal guard yamen during this time, and trying his best to improve his case-handling ability and intelligence-gathering ability.

Zhou Shan bowed down and said: "This matter is indeed the negligence of Weichen, Weichen didn't expect that the big cannibal would use the monk to spy on the news, this is Weichen's fault, please surrender the king!" During this time, Wechen has been trying to find a way to improve the intelligence gathering capabilities of the Neiwei Yamen in various regions! Previously, the branch of the Neiwei Yamen was only deployed at the state and county level at most, and there was no dispatch agency at the county level below the state and county, but this time, in response to the fact that the Great Food Country sent monks and missionaries to spy on hostile activities, Weichen discussed with other officials and colleagues of the Neiwei Yamen, and thought that it was necessary to improve the intelligence collection ability of the Neiwei Yamen, the ability to handle cases against hostile activities, and the personal combat power of case-handling officials and secret agents in several aspects! ”

"Oh?" Zhao Ziliang became interested when he heard this, "You get up first and talk about it in detail!" ”

"Yes!" Zhou Shan clenched his fists and agreed, stood up and said: "First of all, we must deploy the dispatched agencies to the county level, and the number of people in each county-level dispatched agency should not be too much, no more than five people, otherwise the expenditure will make it difficult for the internal guard yamen to afford, so that we can understand the news at the bottom as soon as possible."

"Second, to expand the scope of recruitment of secret agents, Wechen believes that we should recruit secret agents from all walks of life, and select people who are smart, quick to react on the spot, and have strong response skills, so as to expand the scope of intelligence collection."

"Third, classify the case-handling personnel of the internal guard yamen, which are secret agents, dry agents, assassins, civil servants, and officials. Secret agents are a type of person who hides their identity, their existence is known to very few people, and their files are kept by a special person. Detectives are people who carry out arrest and interrogation tasks, assassins are those who specialize in assassinating those who are not suitable for arrest but cannot let the target continue to live, and the civilian staff is mainly the personnel who stay behind in the yamen! In order to increase their enthusiasm for intelligence collection and case handling, Wechen believes that we can consider increasing their rewards, and for each useful piece of information collected or a case completed, the relevant personnel can receive some additional rewards, and the source of this part of the reward is mainly the stolen money seized from the handling of cases."

"Fourth, to find a way to improve the combat effectiveness of the people in the internal guard yamen, we can consider establishing a training hall to conduct targeted training for each recruited person, such as training in intelligence gathering, reaction ability and on-the-spot adaptability for secret agents; training of cadres in criminal investigation and combat skills; Assassins are trained in survivability, assassination skills, etc., and this training is done at certain intervals to ensure that their abilities do not decline! ”

"Fifth, our internal guard yamen is a special yamen, it is an official yamen that cannot be exposed to the sun, and it may be attacked at any time during the execution of the task, we must have our own survival skills, and we must equip our people with more convenient and suitable weapons, so Weichen believes that the internal guard yamen must have its own weapons and equipment forging station!"

"The above is the method sorted out by the ministers after deliberation during this time, but it takes a lot of money to complete these things, and it must be invested regularly every year, maybe every year in the future!"

Zhao Ziliang thought for a while and agreed: "Yes, this king agrees, you go back and write a specific note to present to this king, for the sake of secrecy, the article will be submitted directly to this king without going through the political envoy!" ”

"Wechen obeys!"
