In the simple and elegant Mingtang, the sun shines slantly into the hall, the light and shadow are mottled, and the dust is blurred. It floats uncertainly with the clear words in the hall.
"...these guards in imperial robes are aware of lawlessness and secretly exploring secrets. One is light and the other is dark, just like yin and yang. Everything about enemies, traitors, rebellions, secret realms, military morale, public opinion, fighting violence, guarding, etc. are all involved..."
"... As I can see from Feng, the Jin vassal, the nine first-class vassals, and the seventy-two second-class clans in the Western Regions all have the eyes and ears of our Daming Mountain. As soon as the enemy army moves, our army will know it immediately..."
"... one million spiritual jade will be allocated to select the first batch of 300 casual cultivators from each hometown, and they will be trained and studied for half a year. After half a year, we will personally assess and recruit them, and assign them back to their hometowns to wait for opportunities to lurk..."
"...Jinyiwei has one commander each on the left and right, and they are in charge of the left and right Zhenfu divisions, with the same position as a thousand commanders. Under the two divisions, there are temporarily two levels: flag commander and school captain, with the same position as a hundred commanders, what a commander..."
"For the internal affairs of Zuozhen Fusi, Tiqi and internal guards are set up to take charge of military discipline, counter-espionage, arrests, interrogations, and riot control..."
"Youzhen Fusi has set up special agents and detectives to deal with the outside world. The special agents lurk at the upper levels of the martial arts clan, and the detectives secretly investigate the lower levels of the martial clan, specializing in spying on the enemy's situation and secrets..."
"...One person is short of wisdom. If there are any mistakes, three people will be able to correct them."
Jiang Yao talked eloquently, and by the time he finished speaking, the three of them had also read the charter "Special Things Heart Sutra" written by him.
The three of them could not have imagined that the great military advisor had summarized it in such detail and considered it so thoughtfully, and could come up with something so refreshing.
The world's martial arts have been using it for a long time, and undercover spying is not uncommon. But when it comes to specialized training for spies, it can never be done to this extent.
For example, when it comes to lurking, the "Spy Heart Sutra" mentions that you need to learn the common characteristics of at least three people in a lurking environment, such as tone, movements, expressions, and hobbies. This is convergence.
The purpose of convergence is not to disguise oneself, but to create a sense of closeness and facilitate the establishment of a small circle within the enemy.
Then, push the small circle upward and expand until it expands to the point where you can access the inside story. In other words, you are using the power of the entire circle to collect information about the enemy.
After that, maintain the circle well and analyze valuable information in just a few phrases through the communication in the circle. Or cleverly create topics to guide the circle to communicate and get useful clues.
The whole process will never be very direct or deliberate to find out the inside story.
The "Spy Heart Sutra" also mentions how to identify valuable things. Anything out of the ordinary deserves the attention of a spy.
For example, there are reasons for changes in the enemy's mood, changes in financial expenditures, changes in personnel flows, changes in alert levels, changes in travel frequency, changes in city prices, etc.
It can be said to cover everything. There is even a chapter on "Resolving Suspicions", which teaches how to eliminate the enemy's suspicions, how to set up situations in advance, clear suspicions, and even put the blame on others...
The three of them have been in the Xuanfeng Army for many years, and there are also people in the army who inquire about military affairs, but the methods of the Daming Mountain spies are really too crude compared with what is described in the "Spy Heart Sutra".
According to the great military advisor's plan, if the Jinyi Guards are successfully formed, it will be difficult for important news in the entire Western Region to escape the eyes and ears of the Xuanfeng Army.
Everything will become easier to do. Even the tomb repairman of Qiushan Hall knows where there is a worthy target.
The great military advisor is really clear-minded and thoughtful. He also cultivates the four paths, and his abilities are extraordinary. He is of the same mind as the Xuanfeng Army. It is a pity that he cannot find the military seal, otherwise, the military leader can do the same.
"Gongming's "Special Agent Heart Sutra" is very good. I think it is completely feasible. However, is it too much to allocate one million spiritual jade? I am very poor in Daming Mountain." Pei Kang said first.
Zhijin nodded and said with a smile: "Brother, this charter makes me feel uncomfortable. I didn't expect that a simple undercover spy would have so many details. It seems irrelevant at first glance, but it makes sense if you think about it carefully. I really didn't pay attention before waiting.
.”
"There should be no such detailed work among the martial arts clans. I think it is feasible! But I also think the allocation is too much. How about we allocate 500,000 for the time being?"
"Very good, it's settled." Ji Xin said without hesitation, "Third sister, I know you are in charge of the accounts and are reluctant to spend. But for this expense, I think Gongming did not make a mistake. One million, it should be
dial!"
"Without generous pay, we can't raise elite soldiers and loyal ministers. Since these royal guards will be of great use in the future, let's not spare this spiritual jade."
As a result, the plan to allocate one million yuan was passed.
"Gong Ming, you are a great military advisor and you are cautious and careful. You also planned this matter. You have to do the hard work yourself in selecting people. We will not care about it." Pei Kang directly threw the specific affairs over.
The other two people also have little interest in this kind of thing. Brocade is about resource development, Ji Xin is concerned about military affairs, and no one wants to be responsible for such trivial spy matters.
Jiang Yao could only reluctantly say: "Who said I was the one responsible for this? Then I'll stay a few more days and choose the right people."
After speaking, he took a sip of the first-level spiritual tea and said, "There are so many things about Jin Yiwei, but fortunately there is no rush for now. Feng thinks it's time to uncover the spies of the Nine True Alliance in Daming Mountain."
The three of them all looked solemn after hearing this.
Ji Xin frowned and said, "Gongming, are you sure that the dead Jiuzhen Alliance is really the eagle dog of Jin Dynasty?"
Jiang Yao nodded, with a sonorous and powerful voice like a broken cymbal, "The Jiuzhen Alliance is indeed a Jin clan eagle dog."
"They will definitely get rid of our Xuanfeng Army quickly. Brother Nuoran, don't forget that our Xuanfeng Army was one of the main forces who rebelled against the Jin clan. How could the Lord of Jin let us go? Of course he would give instructions to Jiuzhen
The alliance focuses on dealing with the Xuanfeng Army."
"The Jin vassal has no way to deal with us personally, so it can only rely on the Jiuzhen Alliance to plot and use the same tricks that the Demon King used against the Jin Lord to deal with us."
This conjecture is very reasonable.
The Jin Clan has a Martial Saint. If a Martial Saint comes in person, he can definitely destroy the Daming Mountain. The military domain with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses is no match for the powerful Martial Saint Holy Domain.
But why didn't the Lord of Jin personally take action and come to Daming Mountain to destroy or recruit his own rebels?
It's also very funny to say.
After Jiang Yao learned about it, he felt a little sad.
Because the Lord of Jin is the real version of King Huai of Chu.
Jin Clan is not far from the Demon Realm, so it can be said that it is the first to bear the brunt, and there is constant friction with the Demon Lord on the opposite side.
Therefore, the Demon Lord invited the Jin Lord to negotiate in the name of mercantile border negotiations. The Demon Lord was also an "old friend" of the Jin Lord, and the Jin Lord overestimated the other party's bottom line.
After Lord Jin went there, he was restrained by the devil's design, his cultivation was sealed, and he was imprisoned.
Afterwards, the demon king asked Lord Jin to order the elimination of the Xuanfeng Army and then let him go back.
As a result, Shang Ge was forced to death and the Xuanfeng Army was forced to rebel, but the Lord of Jin did not return him.
A mighty martial sage, the leader of the Jin Clan with millions of troops, yet he suffered such a superficial conspiracy and was imprisoned in the Demon Realm by a Demon Lord. It was simply a shame for the human race and made the demons laugh out loud.
This also caused the prestige of the Jin clan to plummet. From the original hope of unifying the Western Region, it became a situation where it could only defend its borders and defend itself, and was at loggerheads with a group of first-class powerful vassals around it.
Under such circumstances, it is obviously unrealistic for the Jin army to use the surrounding clans to attack the rebels hundreds of thousands of miles away.
Who dares to take advantage of a super power? What if it kills me? Is this kind of thing rare in the real world?
As a result, the Jin vassal could only watch the rebels roam freely in Daming Mountain from a distance.
The Jin army was restrained by the five powerful vassals and could not go on an expedition. The Lord of Jin was a "guest" in the Demonic Realm. Although the Supreme Lord of Jin was also a Martial Saint, his life was about to expire and he would never take action easily.
It is under this special situation that Xuanfeng's remnant army can persist until now.
After listening to Jiang Yao's words, Pei Kang also reacted, "Shortly after our army captured the city of Xian clan, we were invited by the Nine True Alliance. In this case, there must be a traitor."
"It is not easy to find spies. There are tens of thousands of casual cultivators in the mountains, coming from various counties. How can we screen them?"
Jiang Yaodao: "Feng has a plan, which may be feasible."
Ji Xin nodded: "It's fair and honest, but you are caught in a fisherman's trap?"
"Of course." Jiang Yao said with a smile, "We can use this trick to lure the snake out of its hole."
Zhijin also smiled, "Maybe we can give it a try. Deliberately let out the news, saying that he agreed to meet with the Jiuzhen Alliance, but he doesn't know where the dead man is, and then put up a notice asking for the address."
"Yes, that's exactly it." Jiang Yao stroked his beard and smiled, "The Jiuzhen Alliance is trying to make things mysterious and leave no address, just to whet our appetite. Then we will just obey their wishes and take the bait voluntarily."
Pei Kang said: "In order to avoid the spy becoming suspicious, I have to add one more thing. Isn't there a shortage of cave building materials in the mountain? Just comfort the casual cultivators and say that we are contacting new allies, and the new allies should be able to solve this problem."
"Let the news out first, wait for a day, and then announce the reward address."
The four of them looked at each other and smiled, and the plan was settled.
Three days later, as expected, a casual cultivator from the late Wu Zun period took the initiative to come outside the Mingtang to ask for a meeting, saying that he knew the address of Shi Huigong.
The late Wu Zun, who was less than thirty, obviously had very good qualifications. After entering the Mingtang, he saluted the four people: "Junior Xi Shan, I have met three generals and the great military advisor."
Facing the "Four Big" real people, he did not panic.
Jiang Yao pretended to be pleased and said: "Xi Shan, do you really know where the dead body is? Is there an old branch of the sect there?"
The other three people also had a glimmer of hope.
Of course it would be better not to search for souls. The method of searching for souls is too low-level. The four of them hoped that this person would just say it like a fool.
A smile appeared on Xi Shan's honest face, "This junior knows where Death Ash is. However, I don't think it is the old branch of the cult. On the contrary, I think it is a trap."
"I'm asking you to see me today, just to ask the four adults not to go to Death Huigu. That place is probably a trap for the martial arts clan."
What?!
Even Jiang Yao, who thought he had the pearl of wisdom, was a little stunned at this moment.
what happened?
You should look like a spy.
I'm ready to eat melon, why don't you come here for me?
The other three were also surprised.
This Xishan doesn't look like a spy.
Why, instead of catching the spy, he caught a good guy?
The four giants were all a little unhappy at this time.
