Chapter 676 An accident happened on the island of Intel
In the lobby of the Ordnance Mansion, a map depicting the world hangs in the middle hall, with various topographic maps next to it.
Several clerks from the Ordnance Office stood aside, bowing their heads and standing solemnly, not daring to take a breath.
Now there is a prince in the hall, a general with outstanding merits, and a minister of the Ministry of War. Even the most inconspicuous generals are full of evil spirits.
Can't afford to offend, can't afford to offend.
Su Lu waved his hand to stop Cao Hua. It was his request to discuss this strategy at the court meeting.
Officials of the Han Dynasty were like sieves. There were spies in every government office who had defected to the outside world. The Dingxiang Guards arrested batch after batch of spies and they could not stop arresting them.
Su Lu simply discussed this strategy at the court meeting this time. If the strategy is implemented according to the plan, it will only be a matter of time before Taisi splits.
With such a strategy, spies from all walks of life must be vying to claim credit from Taixi. How many spies can be caught by taking advantage of this opportunity depends on how good Ding Xiangwei's job is.
Su Lu casually took out another strategy and threw it on the table:
"This is a further strategy to split the country from the West after the secrets of the strategy to split the country were leaked. There are too many spies in the Han Dynasty court. They worship foreigners and seek glory. These bastards have learned the sages from dogs.
Yet."
Cao Hua glanced at Dong Cheng and put his hand on the table. Since the prince said there were too many spies, Dong Cheng might also be a spy. This strategy must not be allowed to him.
Dong Cheng smiled bitterly:
"General, my family lived in the North and served the country through military service. How could I be a spy?"
"I, Dong Cheng, may not be wrapped in horse leather, but I have been a soldier for half my life. I have dedicated most of my life to the Han Dynasty. I am now the second person in the Ministry of War. What Taixi can give me is worthy of my joining Taixi."
Cao Hua thought for a while and let go of his hand. He only thought about what his master said was right, but he ignored Dong Cheng's background.
"How can some people's thoughts be judged by common sense? We thought it was impossible, but among those spies, it became possible. I didn't doubt Dong Shilang's intention. Dong Shilang was overthinking it."
Su Lu waved his hand:
"This strategy is already being implemented. As for the one at the Great Court meeting, there will be another team executing it. General Dong Cheng, this strategy requires a lot of cooperation from the Ministry of War. With Zhou Shangshu and General Zhao Pu, please put some thought into it.
People are not very stable."
Dong Cheng's face changed. Could it be that the prince has already obtained some evidence? Both of them are high-ranking officials of the Han Dynasty. Could it be that they are so-called meticulous workers?
"Isn't this possible, Your Majesty?"
Although Dong Cheng knew that as long as the prince said something, it would most likely be true, but having been officials together for several years made Dong Cheng believe in the character of the two of them. Now that he suddenly heard that the two of them might be spies, he couldn't accept it.
If Zhou Shangshu was a spy, how much military information of the Han Dynasty would have been leaked.
If Zhao Pu is a spy, this kid comes from a family of honorable relatives. Originally, his family was in decline, but it was not obvious. Now he has gained power. Many people from the Zhao family have become officials in the court and generals in the army. How much military information has been leaked?
.
It's hard to say that the most important Feiniao Division in Han Dynasty has been leaked.
"Your Majesty, since you are suspicious, let's just transfer these two people out. If such people stay in the center, how much military information will be leaked."
Su Lu looked at Dong Cheng in astonishment. I just said, "It's not very safe. Where did Dong Cheng go?"
Cao Hua said next to him:
"The two adults are extremely corrupt. They secretly supported the heir of a county prince to succeed him as the crown prince. They are suspected of becoming a faction."
Dong Cheng felt a lot more relaxed after hearing this. It would be better if he didn't just do it carefully.
Yingyuan said angrily:
"These two adults are not very corrupt. When the terms and conditions for our promotion titles are presented to these two adults, if there are no corresponding offerings, this statement will definitely not be passed."
"If the tribute is not in the eyes of the two adults, not only will the name be deposed, but also the knighthood may be taken away. I have a robe, which is guarding the border in Rouran. He is also a heroic and straightforward man. Because I didn't make the sacrifice, I was taken away.
Honors."
"General Wang Fang has been guarding Jiameng Pass for many years. Although he acted a little too much in his early years, he was still loyal to the country. Just because the golden melon from western Liaoning was missing from the congratulatory gift to Zhou Shangshu, he has not been promoted until now.
So far, he is still a small guerrilla general."
"This is the same title that the prince gave Jin when he conquered Qin."
When Yingyuan mentioned the injustice in the army, he immediately became indignant.
Dong Cheng's expression turned ugly when he heard this. He also accepted the congratulations, but what was different from the two of them was that with the congratulations he would give them the title of Jin. Without the congratulations, he would also give the title to those who deserved the title.
.
Cao Hua sneered and said:
"Not only you, I, Cao Hua, who has been awarded the title of Jin, also want to send congratulations."
For a while, the lobby fell silent.
All the clerks did not dare to speak. Dong Cheng was embarrassed to say it, and Ying Yuan was a little confused. All the generals and promotions required gifts.
Su Lu shook his head:
"I really don't know about this situation. I used to think that being promoted to an honorary title was a good thing, but I didn't expect that in the hands of these two people, it turned into a tool for making money."
"Well, General Dong Cheng, you go back and prepare for the affairs of the Ministry of War. From now on, you will be the acting minister for the time being. Cao Hua, do you have any thoughts about joining the Ministry of War?"
Cao Hua shook his head:
"The Cao family in the capital is in trouble, and I don't want to be entangled with them in the capital."
Su Lu ordered Lu Zhan next to him:
"Go, go to Dingxiang Guard and tell Governor Pingqi that the Cao family has done too many evil things. Why hasn't Dingxiang Guard dealt with these black sheep until now?"
A trace of confusion flashed across Cao Hua's cheeks. The master took care of the Cao family because of himself and did not take action against the Cao family. Now, in order to keep him, he is going to take action against the Cao family again.
The Cao family really doesn't know how to make progress at all.
"Master, the Cao family..."
Cao Hua didn't know whether he should protect the Cao family or ignore the Cao family.
Dong Cheng had just been knocked unconscious by a minister falling from the sky. In a short time, he had become the acting minister. After the initial surprise, Dong Cheng noticed Cao Hua's confusion.
Just as he was about to say a few words of comfort to Cao Hua, Ying Yuan next to him had already shouted:
"General, for the sake of millions of brothers in the infantry, you have to do whatever it takes. If you join the Ministry of War, our brothers will be promoted to higher ranks, so we won't be deposed for not sending congratulatory gifts."
Dong Cheng also smiled and said:
"This morning, I walked with Yu Shangshu, and Yu Shangshu said a few words, which left a deep impression on me."
"General, you are not honored because of the surname Cao. There is no need to worry about the future of the surname Cao."
"The prince said that you alone are a wealthy and famous family. As long as you live, in a few years, the Cao family will become a new famous family and a new famous family."
While the three of them were talking, a guard rushed into the lobby with an urgent document in his hand.
"Report, Your Majesty, there is news from the palace that something happened on Yingte Island."
Su Lu raised his eyebrows, something happened on Yingte Island?
