When everyone heard it, isn't this the factory guard! Could it be that the general wants to learn from the imperial court's Jinyi Wei and the East Factory and the West Factory, "ride out in all directions", arrest at will, and create panic?

Sun Yuanhua, as a former high-ranking official of the imperial court, was extremely disgusted with the factory guards, and came out to dissuade them: "General, now that the Qiong Navy is thriving, it is a good time for development. ”

Xia Nan waved his hand and replied: "Mr. Sun, rest assured, this is fundamentally different from the imperial court factory guards. The reason why the factory guard made hundreds of officials change their color is not because it has the duty of detective, but because the Beizhen Fusi has set up an 'edict' and has the right to directly arrest, and the three law divisions have no right to interrogate. I have set up this internal security bureau only for the functions of monitoring and investigation, and the arrest of personnel above the level of manager must be approved by me, and the conviction and punishment will be put on the table for collective discussion, so as to not only limit their abuse of power, but also avoid unjust, false and wrongly decided cases to a certain extent, which is very different from that of factory guards. Mr. Sun, do you think I'm right? ”

Sun Yuanhua thought about it carefully, it was really like this. The reason why the factory guards represented by Jinyiwei made the hundred officials hate and disgusted was because of the notorious "edict prison", which was directly responsible to the emperor, and could bypass the Criminal Department, Dali Temple and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and place charges at will. If, as Xia Nan said, it only has the duty of surveillance and investigation, but does not have the power to directly arrest and convict, then the threat of this so-called Internal Security Bureau to everyone will be greatly reduced. Although with Xia Nan's prestige in the Qiong Navy, once a decision is made to dispose of someone, it will be difficult to stop it even if it is discussed collectively, but at least with theoretical restraints, it is much better than Jinyiwei handling cases and engaging in black-box operations.

He was convinced, and arched his hand and said: "The general can think like this, it is a blessing for everyone, and his subordinates have nothing to say." ”

Seeing that Sun Yuanhua had nothing to say, the others had no courage or reason to object. The matter of Murong Longcheng did sound a wake-up call to the Qiong Navy, a person of unknown origin mixed in, and became the second person in the navy, if it was really a spy sent by the enemy, even if it could not subvert the entire system, at least it would cause great damage, and it was indeed necessary to set up a special agency to conduct an internal investigation.

Everyone expressed their support:

"What the general said is very true."

"It is urgent to investigate the spies and investigate the wrongdoings!"

"The general is wise!"

……

Everyone's attitude was expected by Xia Nan, he looked around and smiled. The establishment of such an institution was his plan when he accepted the recruitment and creation of the Qiongzhou Battalion, but he couldn't find a suitable opportunity until Murong Longcheng's affairs were exposed by Jinyiwei, and he knew that the opportunity had come.

During the period of the escort team, the composition of the personnel was relatively simple, and there were few threats from the outside, and there was no need for this, but after attacking Guangzhou and accepting the appeasement, they entered the field of vision of the imperial court, and the personnel in the system changed from the villagers of Ma Yuan Village and the Li people who cut off their feet to the surrendered officers and soldiers to join, not only the personnel were more complex, but the external threat also increased, and the Guangzhou Jinyi Guard's attempt to infiltrate the military camp to spy on intelligence is the best example.

Up to now, the Qiong Navy has become famous all over the world, the number of troops has changed from thousands to tens of thousands, and it will continue to increase in the future, and the people under the direct jurisdiction of the rule have reached more than 100,000, and the territory under indirect control has expanded to three provinces, and the subordinates are even more mixed, coming from all over the world, and it is necessary to carry out internal control; In addition, after the imperial court and Houjin were deflated by Qiong's navy one after another, they must attach great importance to this opponent, and they will definitely try their best to send people to infiltrate Qiongzhou to spy on the military situation, and it is urgent to investigate and arrest the spies, otherwise Qiongzhou will become a house with leaks everywhere, and any major actions will be mastered by the opponent.

However, because he was worried that the military and civilians under his rule would have strong resistance to the "factory guard", Xia Nan had been looking for a suitable opportunity, and the Murong Longcheng incident just gave him an excellent reason, taking this as a starting point to set up his own "factory guard", which could reduce the resistance of his subordinates, plus the promise to limit the power to arrest and convict, so that the road to the establishment of this institution was paved.

As for the person in charge of this Internal Security Bureau, everyone has already vaguely guessed. Whether it is Sun Yuanhua, Sima De or Taiwan's Zhu Dadian, they may have the experience of the ruling party or the sophistication of the people, but they can't fight with the factory guard, and even they were potential persecution targets for the factory guard before, and it is impossible for them to take charge or concurrently serve this institution. This person can be a small person, but he must have relevant "experience", within the Qiong Navy system, there are only a handful of such people, except for the former Jinyi Wei Secret Pile Wang Qinian, there is only one person left.

Sure enough, Xia Nan called out his name: "Zhou Guoxin, out of the ranks!" ”

This Guangzhou Jinyi Wei Baihu is actually in the field! It seems that the general's decision cannot be changed.

In the surprised gaze of everyone, Zhou Guoxin came out with some restraint, he was a little uncomfortable to attend such a scene for the first time, but there was a kind of pride on his face that could not be concealed.

He was picked up yesterday by that white clipper. Before attending today's meeting, Xia Nan met him in Nanyuan in advance, revealing the intention of establishing Qiong Haijun's own "Jinyi Guard" and making him the supervisor, and at the same time told him that if he felt that the level of contact in the past was too low and his vision was not enough, he could ask more about the Jingcheng Jinyi Wei Qianhu Wei Zhong, who was captured from the capital.

At first hearing the news, Zhou Guoxin was a little frightened, not because he was reluctant to let the Ming Jinyi Guard do it, but because he was worried that as a marginal figure in the Qiong Navy system, it was not easy to integrate into this system, and he was the "head of the factory guard" who was in power, and he was more likely to be rejected by the veterans. He said tentatively: "The general trusts the contemptible people so much, he is really afraid. However, if you take such an important position rashly, will others be dissatisfied? Besides, since there is an experienced Jinyi Wei old man like Wei Qianhu, why don't you just surrender him for your own use? ”

Xia Nan glared at him: "Don't use this little trick to test me. I use you because we don't know each other, and you have done your best for me in the past few years, I am willing to believe you. Who is Wei Zhong? He is one of the 14,000 households of Jinyiwei, second only to the commander, Tongzhi, and others, and is in a high position, and now he has become a prisoner under the ranks, how big is the psychological gap, how can it be easily used by me? ”

Zhou Guoxin was pierced by Xiao Jiujiu in his heart, and he was embarrassed: "The general taught a lesson." ”
