Of course, Chen Yixin did not have any personal friendship with Zheng Ai, let alone asked him to transport any goods on his behalf, so after the matter was implemented in this link, the Ministry of Security could basically determine that Zheng Ai had a big problem. Hao Wanqing personally ordered the implementation of uninterrupted monitoring of Zheng Ai's shops in Guxian Town, and at the same time investigated all the people who had been in contact with him recently.

Soon the investigators found that the group of veterans they had been looking for came to Guxian Town one after another, and they all entered Zheng Ai's shop in a very covert way, and never came out again. It's clear that these people are secretly gathering here, and it's likely that some shady actions will be carried out next.

At this point, the Ministry of Security has basically concluded that Zheng Ai and others must have planned some misdeeds, and their targets are most likely the Fushan County Management Committee located outside Majiazhuang, and Chen Yixin, who is stationed in the local area as the chief officer.

The military did not deploy many soldiers and horses in the local area, because there were already several checkpoints on the peripheral transportation arteries, and the possibility of a large group of men and horses wanting to raid Majiazhuang was extremely low. But if there is a situation like Zheng Ai, who secretly crosses Chencang into the hinterland with a group of people in the name of transporting goods, the local armed guards may not be able to stop them.

Of course, since the Ministry of Security has basically verified the matter, the military will be much more relaxed in dealing with it. After Chen Yixin learned the ins and outs of the matter, he took the initiative to ask to personally direct the operation. It's not that he wants to make a fuss about it, but he hasn't commanded this kind of military operation for too long, and his hands are really itching. What's more, the current situation is obviously that Haihan has taken the initiative, just set a trap and wait for the other party to get in, and the risk is also within the controllable range, plus he is most familiar with the local situation, this command position is naturally the best.

With the opponent's situation in place, the next arrangement is simple. Chen Yixin applied for a company of army troops from Zhifu Island as assistance, but Qian Tiandun selected a platoon of people from the special operations company to give him in order to ensure that nothing went wrong. In the end, the soldiers in Chen Yixin's office were all the elite of the special operations battalion, and the weapons they were equipped with were also seven-shot rifles that have only been installed in small batches in the army. This group of people shrank in the room on the second floor to set up an ambush, and there was also a small-caliber cannon to suppress the formation, not to mention that the opponent only had about 20 people, even if it was doubled by one or two times, it was impossible to rush into this room through the corridor.

In order to dispel the other party's suspicions, Chen Yixin not only let Tie Pingjiang stay in his original post as bait, but even arranged for a soldier to disguise himself as a woman to add a play, and this arrangement was later proved to have played a nearly decisive role in the success of luring the enemy.

Chen Yixin deployed nearly 200 people in this vicinity, while Zheng Ai's team of assassins was only more than 20 people, and he naturally had no luck in sending them to the door himself. And the reason why Zheng Ai and the others were able to survive was not because of Chen Yixin's sudden compassion, but because of the routine designed at the beginning, forcing the survivors to go up to the second floor and creating a closed environment where there was nowhere to escape, so as to force them to disarm and surrender.

If you don't care about life or death, it is impossible for this group of people to even get the chance to go up to the second floor, but Chen Yixin needs to stay alive to find out the mastermind behind this matter, so he designed such a complex routine and forced Zheng Ai and others into a desperate situation step by step. The Ministry of Security's investigation has been going on for more than a month during this period, and the military has already made arrangements three days ago to take control of the two-mile radius. It's just that for Zheng Ai, it is really difficult for him to imagine how the Haihan people learned about their actions in advance and made such targeted deployments in advance.

At this step, Zheng Ai had completely lost the idea of luck, he hesitated slightly, and still confided the truth according to Chen Yixin's request.

"Sneak attack on Majiazhuang, this is what Lord Liao meant. Zheng Ai was silent for a moment, and finally said the identity of the main messenger.

"Which Lord Liao?" Liao Jie, the commander of the Shandong Metropolitan Division?" Chen Yixin continued to ask with an expressionless face.

"It's ......" Zheng Ai knew that if he wanted to continue to live, he would have to throw the pot out as much as possible at this time. Although he did have the intention of dying before, after getting a chance to live, it was difficult to regain the courage to face death. Since the Haihan people were so interested in the main messenger, Zheng Ai did not hesitate to use the information he had in exchange for a chance to survive.

Speaking of this Lord Liao, the grievances and entanglements between him and Haihan are also quite deep, and it is not the first time that the two sides have fought each other, and last year's attack on the Fushan Copper Mine by the Dengzhou Ming Army was planned by Liao Jie. However, the operation commanded by Guo Xingning, a general of Dengzhou, was kicked to the iron plate in the Fushan Copper Mine, and was beaten by the Haihan army stationed there, and fled all the way back to Dengzhou City. In that battle, the Ming army in Dengzhou lost its troops and lost generals, and since then it has never dared to take the initiative to provoke Haihan, and even the Qishan Station, which is closest to the Haihan occupied area, has also died down, and even the daily patrol arrangement for Zhifu Bay has been completely canceled.

For the Dengzhou garrison, the existence of the Haihan people is undoubtedly an extremely headache, and the attempt to drive out the Haihan by means of war has long been declared a failure, and with the current situation of Dengzhou and the comparison of the strength of the two sides, they dare not upgrade or expand the scale of the war, so it is likely to end up in an unmanageable situation. Dengzhou is in a time when the battle is in ruins, and it is difficult to get military support from other state capitals in Shandong - in order to exterminate the peasant army in the Central Plains, almost all the elite troops in the western state capitals of Shandong have been transferred to Hebei, Anhui and other places to fight, and they will not care about these in their own backyards for a while.

If the bright one doesn't work, then you can only use the dark one. Liao Jie didn't mind using some unconventional means to achieve the goal of expelling Haihan like his "missing" brother Liao Xun. Among the methods that can coerce Haihan into submission, the most feasible is probably to kidnap high-ranking Haihan officials as hostages.

The high-ranking officials of Haihan live in a secluded place in Shandong, their whereabouts are kept secret, and there are a large number of armed personnel around them at all times to protect them. Liao Jie was also well aware of the difficulties, so after weighing it repeatedly, he handed over this task to Zheng Ai, who had changed his identity and lurked in Guxian Town at that time, and delegated great authority to him, allowing him to plan his own action plan, regardless of manpower, funds or other aspects, as long as the goal could be achieved in the end.
