Xun Yu believed that everything from Hanoi to Zhongmou and Youzhou had been infiltrated by Hussar spies.
Therefore, Xun Yu felt that before he wanted to deal with the affairs of local officials, he had to catch those spies first. Otherwise, every move here would be passed on to Guanzhong.
Xun Yu was not a serious counter-espionage talent, and he knew in his heart that in fact, most of Lao Cao's "counter-espionage" forces were not doing serious things.
But this does not mean that Xun Yu will give up easily.
Xun Yu believed that as long as everything is acted upon, there will definitely be traces.
Then Xun Yu found a way to filter.
The most obvious trace is naturally money.
So Xun Yu gathered all the people Chen Qun trusted here in Anyang, in the name of Chen Qun, and began a thorough investigation, collecting the files of some surrounding officials, hoping to find some clues.
Then, after a lot of screening, Xun Yu found...
But what Xun Yu didn't expect was that the first person to be screened was actually in Anyang.
……o((⊙﹏⊙))o.……
Lu Hong has always been very principled: work belongs to work and private life belongs to private life.
Matters at work are a big deal. Everyone should reason with each other when needed, and react when needed to the leader. No matter how big the conflict is, it is always about the issue rather than the person. However, if the conflict at work is extended to the personal realm and attempts are made to use personal attacks, it is impossible to achieve the goal.
The purpose of suing others was absolutely intolerable to Lu Hong.
That's right, Lu Hong didn't mention Xia Houyuan's name.
Lu Hong doesn't hold grudges at all about those little things, and he never brings his personal emotions to work.
That's weird.
After all, many things only happen for the first time or countless times.
The last time it was Xia Houyuan who scared him, what about the next time?
Who can guarantee whether the knife will stop next time?
Danger must be nipped in the bud!
Of course, Lu Hong can't kill the guy who scared him right now, but there is an old saying, don't be afraid of thieves... Phew, if there is a will, things will be done!
Lu Hong felt that this was Xia Houyuan's stupidity. If he were Xia Houyuan, he would either not take action, or if he did take action and still hold on, wouldn't he be looking for trouble for himself?
Lu Hong swore that he would never allow himself to suffer such humiliation again.
Then, he must kill General Bai Di.
Even if you can't do it now, then wait, look for opportunities, and deliver the final fatal blow.
Similarly, Lu Hong also remembered being attacked by Wang Hai before. Even though he was laughing and calling him brother now, when the time came, he would stab his brother in the waist and he would show no mercy.
Wang Hai's sneak attack also sounded the alarm for Lu Hong. Lu Hong realized that he had a very serious problem, that is, his subordinates were completely inferior in terms of combat effectiveness and quick reaction ability.
If we encounter a similar situation again, if the other party really has the intention to kill people, will Lu Hong still be able to survive based on the pig performance of these recruited rangers and libertines?
The answer is obviously no.
Therefore, Lu Hong felt that he could no longer recruit those wastes, and he had to find some other people to protect himself.
But with Lu Hong's current status, let alone recruiting those "experts", even if he does meet some "experts", those "experts" may not be able to like him.
However, as Wang Hai said, it doesn't matter if you don't care about status, as long as you care about money.
Only with money can there be "masters". Well, maybe it is possible to find some "masters". Otherwise, if you find some wanderers and libertines for cheap, even if there are more people, what's the use?
Where exactly is the "Master" located?
Lu Hong has a headache, but this matter is not the focus now. The focus is to make money first.
Well, that's wrong, let's get rid of people first.
Once you have done this, you will naturally have money.
Just handing in the report is just a temporary measure, and some concrete things still have to be done.
Lu Hong is very aware of the psychology of the big guys above him.
Xun Yu, he looked down on him at all. The reason why Xun Yu didn't look down on Lu Hong was because Lu Hong was promoted by Cao Cao. Because Lu Hong was not as smart as Guo Jia, so full of resourcefulness, and he was so resourceful in the blink of an eye.
An idea. If Lu Hong wants to come up with a plan, he often needs to think quietly and alone, and then think about it for a long time. Even so, there may be flaws.
But in turn, this has also become Lu Hong's advantage. Xun Yu thinks that he can see Lu Hong clearly and control Lu Hong. However, when things are complicated and there is not so much time to think about it, he can still see clearly.
, can you still fully control it?
As for Cao Cao, Cao Cao actually didn't care about Lu Hong.
Although Cao Cao seems to be very cordial every time they meet, Lu Hong knows that it is Boss Cao's disguise. Boss Cao is very cordial to every minister on the surface, but he will deliberately belittle Cao Xiahou whoever is around him.
clan members, and then speak some words of praise from "outsiders".
Although it sounds cool, in fact Lao Cao still trusts those Cao clan and Xiahou clan that he scolds every day, just like that damn Bai Di General.
so……
Lu Hong pondered.
Lu Hong knew that he was not very smart, so he worked very hard.
Work hard to climb up.
He looked up, thinking that the top was ventilated, smooth, and beautiful. However, after he climbed a little higher, he realized that there was actually something stuck in the sky, and he could not get up.
go.
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get up.
He had been confused and doubtful, and now he figured it out.
He must find some "masters", including masters to protect himself, including guys like Wang Hai.
Of course it costs money to find an expert, but what should I do if I don’t have the money?
"Pan?" Wang Hai's eyes widened, "Are you crazy?"
There are two common surnames in Zhongmu, one is Ren and the other is Pan.
"You know, we have to hand over something." Lu Hong said slowly, "If we don't hand it over to the Pan family, how can we hand it over to the Ren family?"
"Ren? Do you want to die?" Wang Hai laughed angrily.
Lu Hong nodded, "So, there is only the Pan family."
"No. What I mean..." Wang Hai scratched his head, "Why do you want to make it so big? Can't you just hand over some little guys?"
"But I didn't come before." Lu Hong shook his head and said, "Of course, I'm not important. What's important is that Xun Lingjun didn't send anyone here before."
Wang Hai's expression suddenly froze.
"I said, if you want to take action, you are a veteran," Lu Hong pointed upward, "But when it comes to understanding the above, I am a veteran... Zhongmu is a small place, so handing over a Pan family is about the same.
...』
"Why?" Wang Hai asked.
Lu Hong raised his head and looked into the distance, as if he was looking at something, or just reminiscing, "The people above sometimes don't care how you do it... nor are they special."
They care about the low life and life, they only want the result they want. As for who gave this result, in fact, for them, it is not the point... and it cannot be the point..."
"Brother, you said that..." Wang Hai was silent for a while, "I really don't understand..."
"Haha." Lu Hong smiled, but did not expose Wang Hai's pretense. After all, pretending to be stupid will not cause conflicts, only when it is exposed will there be conflicts.
Wang Hai looked at Lu Hong, "Well, I don't know anything about this matter... I'm a big boss, if it goes wrong... I'd better go and handle it, brother..."
Lu Hong smiled again, "I am also a fool, how can I handle such a detailed matter?"
"What about you?" Wang Hai stared.
"There are always some smart people in this world, right?" Lu Hong laughed, "If a smart person discovers some problems and cannot evade them, will he want to break away from the relationship? Will he think about it?
Do you want to reduce your own responsibilities and shift the responsibility to others?"
"Oh..." Wang Hai nodded, "So now, I just need to find an unavoidable problem... But where is the problem?"
"Isn't this ready-made?" Lu Hong smiled and said decisively, "Sima!"
……(〒︿〒)……
Although office work has begun in Xu County, many places are still on vacation, especially within counties. Mu Xiu's arrangements are often based on the application needs of officials. For example, if they have not returned for a year, Mu Xiu will naturally
The rest time will be longer.
Wang Ming still has some time left to rest, so he plans to visit Cai Yu on the way.
Since he handed over the contact Yuzhang, he has basically not been responsible for some related espionage work. However, Cai Yu is his friend after all and has been with Yuan Shao for a long time, so he
Before returning to Yuzhou this time, I made a special detour to Anyang County to see Cai Yu.
According to formal espionage rules, such as the "basic common sense" of later generations of keyboard spies, it is best for spies to use single-line vertical activities when operating in hostile areas, and no horizontal contacts can occur. Although such espionage activities are relatively inefficient, they are still
This ensures that when a spy is arrested, he will not be arrested immediately.
It's a pity that Wang Ming and Cai Yu are not spies who have undergone long-term training at all. They rely more on the convenience of their identities to act.
Since there was no better way to contact him and it was inconvenient to go find him directly, Wang Ming simply followed the old method and left some old three horizontal and one vertical marks under the stone archway of the market. This represents
His name is also a metaphor for the three-color flag of the Hussars. When he was in Yecheng before, Wang Ming also used this symbol to contact Cai Yu.
The next day, Wang Ming saw that the mark on the market archway had been daubed and changed. Three line segments converged on a point, one of which was slightly longer and pointed to the wine shop in the distance.
At the archway, some majestic and burly soldiers were on duty, staring at every passerby with bright eyes. Wang Ming handed over his identity certificate and casually asked the soldiers: "Is that so? Is there any big shot today?"
Are you coming?』
The soldier returned Wang Ming's check-in address very rudely, "Wang Diannong, why do you ask this?"
Wang Ming waved his hand and said: "Just asking, you see you are dressed so brightly, your robes are all new, and there is no dust or ash on your body. Isn't this because some big shot is coming to check, so what is it?"
The soldier lowered his head and looked at the armor on his body, and then smiled, "Wang Diannong really has good eyesight... That's right. The county magistrate has an order to rectify the city appearance... Wang Diannong should not spread it everywhere..."
"Oh, I just asked casually, I don't care about this matter..." Wang Ming cupped his hands and walked into the market.
There are shops on both sides of the market with high banners. Waiters or waitresses stand at the door, one after another hawking and soliciting business.
Today happened to be the day to go to the market, and people from the surrounding areas gathered in the county town, and there was a lot of traffic.
At the intersection of the county streets, there is a wine shop.
The wine shop is not big, not as large as Yecheng, but it has a two-story building and a separate courtyard.
As Wang Ming walked forward, he suddenly saw the familiar figure of a soldier on the sentry tower, but he couldn't remember who it was for the moment. The other two or three soldiers beside the soldier seemed to be looking at him warily.
He looked at the situation around him and looked at Wang Ming.
"Hey, it looks like a big shot is coming?" Wang Ming withdrew his gaze, "Who could it be? Chen Changwen? Or is the position of the county magistrate in Anyang County about to change? The old and new county magistrates are preparing to hand over and make some appearances.
article?"
The management model of a city without walls built by General Hussar in Chang'an actually gradually affected many areas of the Han Dynasty. In small cities like Anyang, sentry towers were also begun to be built at the end of the streets.
to maintain law and order.
While walking, Wang Ming suddenly felt something was wrong.
He felt like someone's eyes were on him, itching and tingling.
When I looked back, it seemed like there was nothing.
Wang Ming frowned and saw a cloth shop nearby, so he turned around and walked in. As soon as he walked into the cloth shop, the feeling of being stared at seemed to disappear.
Everyone has some weird habits, or some kind of talent. Is Wang Ming's talent? Maybe it can be said that his perception value is relatively high, and he is more sensitive to the sight of others. This is actually nothing.
It is a rare talent, and even many girls have such a high perception. When staring at a certain part of a girl for too long, the girl will always notice it by following her gaze.
Wang Ming is not a girl, but his talent saved his life.
After Wang Ming turned into the cloth shop, Xun Yu, who was dressed as an ordinary soldier, looked away from the sentry tower.
"Wang Diannong?" Xun Yu knew Wang Ming, or in other words, Xun Yu knew most of the officials under Cao Cao. "What is he doing in Anyang?"
The reason why Xun Yu is standing here is because Cai Yu was exposed.
Cai Yu's self-proclaimed cover-ups were actually not that difficult to crack in front of Xun Yu.
Because if you take action, you will inevitably leave traces.
In addition, Cai Yu himself doesn't know how to hide. As soon as he gets rich, he spends a lot of time looking for young ladies. His behavior of suddenly getting rich is like an ordinary clerk in later generations, wearing a watch worth hundreds of thousands, driving a Cadillac to the club every day.
Just as eye-catching, if there is no problem, then wouldn’t it mean that Xun Yu is stupid?
Xun Yu didn't know who he wanted to contact Cai Yu.
Because I kept an eye on Cai Yu, I discovered that Cai Yu had changed the mark on the archway and went to the wine shop.
So Xun Yu came.
"Your Majesty, do you want to arrest him?" said Cao Quan, the guard who was following Xun Yu.
Xun Yu thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "That's not appropriate. Wait a moment."
Wang Ming did not go to the wine shop, so he could not confirm that Wang Ming was related to Cai Yu, nor could he confirm that it was the mark left by Wang Ming. Therefore, it would not make sense to arrest Wang Ming immediately. Even if he were caught, it would not prove that Wang Ming
What's wrong with Ming?
It's hard to say that it's just a warning.
Cao Quan responded and then stood behind Xun Yu.
After a while, Wang Ming walked out of the cloth shop carrying several feet of brightly colored cloth. The waiter at the cloth shop nodded and bowed to see Wang Ming off.
Everything seems normal.
Wang Ming was walking on the street. He had a few more oil paper bags in his hand, and he was carrying them in the other hand. He was swinging them, looking left and right, just like a very ordinary market visitor, and then
I wandered past the wine shop without going directly into the wine shop.
"Why didn't you go in?" Xun Yu frowned, his eyes chasing Wang Ming's figure, "Could it be that it wasn't him?"
Xun Yu ordered people to continue staring at Wang Ming, then moved his gaze away from Wang Ming, and searched around the wine shop. At the same time, he said: "Send a signal over there and ask if anyone else went to the wine shop and Cai."
meet?"
The soldiers agreed and waved the flag.
On the road, Wang Ming turned back.
The flag waved on the watchtower.
Wang Ming looked along the road and found a flag waving on a sentry tower not far from the wine shop...
After thinking about it for a moment, Wang Ming felt as if a cold hand suddenly grabbed his heart, causing his heart to almost stop beating!
Although Wang Ming didn't know what that flag meant, it was obvious that these sentry towers were not ordinary soldiers!
Ordinary soldiers cannot do so many tricks. As a small county town like Anyang, if they are ordinary county soldiers, they can only shout warnings at most, and add gold at most, which is already very impressive!
Thinking back to the previous scenes, the pictures were connected one after another!
Something bad is going to happen!
must……
Wang Ming glanced around and saw a few beggars at the corner of the street...
After a while, a beggar was stopped by the waiter at the door of the wine shop.
The beggar yelled, saying that someone invited him to come and eat vegetables, saying they were eating pig meat, and he also showed several coins in his hand.
The waiter sneered and blocked the beggar from entering, saying that not to mention that the restaurant did not have any butchered pork dishes, and even if it did, he would not entertain beggars!
But the beggar obviously seemed to have some brain problems and was very stubborn. He kept shouting over and over again, saying that someone really invited him, and it was a noble person who invited him!
Naturally, the waiter didn't believe it. While pushing him away, he said how could a nobleman treat a beggar to a meal? If he made trouble again, he would be rude...
The quarrel was so loud that Cai Yu upstairs heard it.
"Killing pigs and vegetables, haha, how could there be anything..." Cai Yu raised the wine glass and suddenly stopped his hand, "Killing... pigs... vegetables... Cai?"
Cai Yu straightened up suddenly and looked around quickly. He suddenly noticed that several people withdrew their gazes when they noticed him looking around, pretending to be eating and drinking, but the chopsticks were dangling for a long time without picking up any dishes!
Cai Yu suddenly realized something, his hands shook slightly, then he lowered his head, his face turned pale, and he looked at the dishes on the table, but he no longer had any appetite.
