This is inseparable from the management system of Yongye Military Leader.
Since the entire territory was established by them layer by layer, both the settlement and the population were very planned.
Although not to the extent that each resident has his or her own identity number, they are still divided into jurisdictions and villages and forts.
When a person is wandering outside and cannot even report his own jurisdiction and village fortress, there is a high probability that this person has something wrong with him, and if he is questioned for a while, his secret will basically be revealed.
After all, the outside world has basically no understanding of what happened to the Yongye Army in the past seven or eight years. They have no idea about the castle alliance or the personnel split, and they cannot solve the problem of their identity at all.
Being detained for review is in compliance with legal procedures under the Yong Ye Army Command.
The false capture rate is almost zero.
This is also inseparable from the vigilance of the militia and self-defense forces. After all, no matter how complete the policy is, it must be implemented by personnel, otherwise it will be useless and empty.
After interrogation, it was found that these captured sentinel ghost slaves had various origins and basically came from all kinds of forces, including the Princess Regent and Countess Angibena, allies of the Yongye Army Leader.
It is not known whether what these sentry ghost slaves told us is true or whether they were biting randomly.
Anyway, a few days after they finished their explanation, they were executed secretly. Even the original interrogation files were destroyed. It was treated as if this incident had not happened and this person had never appeared.
The fate of the rest is more tragic. What awaits them will be repeated interrogations. When they accept this task, they should think of what they will face in the future.
Among them, the Kingsley family led by the Carter Army sent the largest number of sentinels, and all the ghost slaves were sent by them.
The special profession of ghost slave disappeared for a time with the rise of the Yongye military leader.
However, they did not disappear, they just hid in dark corners like mice. Once a new employer appeared, they would swarm out like flies that smelled a putrid smell.
Especially this time, it was not the Kingsley family who took the initiative to find the ghost slaves, but the ghost slaves who took the initiative to find each other.
It's not that these ghost slaves have such a far-sighted political vision, they know that the Kingsley family may conflict with the Eternal Night Army leader in the Swamp of Despair.
Not to mention them, even Buck, the contemporary Archduke of the Kingsley family, cannot see that far-sighted.
It is purely because the Kingsley family is the most wealthy in the world, and they have the greatest demand for slaves. In the future, they are more likely to lead troops to the Eternal Night Army.
The Kingsley family was just a chess player at the beginning. Who would have thought that the leader of the Yongye Army would grow to its current level in just a few years.
Even though Archduke Buck did not think that the leader of the Eternal Night Army would be their biggest competitor in the Swamp of Despair, out of caution, he still mobilized all the forces that could be mobilized, including those who were forgotten by them and were about to survive in the mine.
Dead ghost slaves.
Before the ghost slaves were activated, they were still a group of slaves. Don't expect the Kingsley family to treat them differently. At most, the oppression was not that serious.
It's just that these ghost slaves' understanding of the Andis Mountains was only ten years ago. Just the face of an Andis person really can't provide much cover. On the contrary, it only attracts more hatred.
Some things buried deep in the bones have not disappeared over time, but have become deeper.
Those captured ghost slaves are the best proof. When the professionals from the Yong Ye Army arrived, 80% of them were beaten to death, and several died of their injuries not long after.
The Yongye military leaders have no way to hold them accountable, except that it is a good thing for the people to help catch the spies, and it cannot dampen their enthusiasm, and it is also because the law does not hold people accountable.
There are not just one or two people involved in beating ghost slaves. Most of those who have suffered direct or indirect harm from them can't help but take action.
The behavior of the Kingsley family proves one point in disguise. They attach more importance to the Swamp of Despair than they imagined.
In fact, the determination of the Kingsley family to march into the swamp of despair is reflected in all aspects.
For example, on the border between the Carter Army and the Swamp of Despair, the incorporation of those cities that ignored them.
Archduke Buck's emissaries brought not only amnesty orders and gold, silver and jewelry, but also bloody killings.
Gochi City.
The largest city in the Sangui zone, headed by the dozen or so Sangui towns along the Cartel Hills and Despair Swamp, has a permanent population of up to 50,000, which is no worse than ordinary county-level cities.
It can develop for many reasons.
The geographical factor is naturally indispensable, with half a mountain and half a river.
Backed by the remaining hills of the cartel military leader, the front is the swamp of despair connected by water and land. However, the terrain here is relatively high, and only the valleys are submerged. Those mountains are still rising above the water, forming a series of swamps of despair.
islands in .
Needless to say, this terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack. As long as you defend one side, it will be difficult for the enemy to enter.
The mountain it is leaning against is an iron mine, and it is rich in ore. Just hit it with a shovel twice, and you can break out a piece of iron ore with a high iron content.
Even in the cartel military realm, which is rich in mineral resources, such rich minerals are rare.
It is conceivable what kind of bloodbath was staged in the fight for this place.
The Kingsley family and the Crocodile Clan almost had their brains knocked out here, and every inch of the land was soaked in blood.
The Crocodile Tribe is the aboriginal people of the Despair Swamp and the remnants of the ancient Andis Empire in the Jiangnan Plain.
Just because the Swamp of Despair was not conquered by the Byron Alliance does not mean that no one lives here.
It is said that cockroaches have tenacious vitality, and humans have similar adaptability.
As long as the living environment is not extreme to a certain extent, they will find their own way out, just like the Kentana barbarians on the Kentana Icefield.
The Despair Swamp has a dangerous environment and poor living conditions, but it is far inferior to the Kentana Icefield, especially in terms of products, which are quite rich.
After all, the temperature here is suitable and there is a lot of rain.
When the Jiangnan Plain turned into a swamp of despair, most of the residents moved away, but some stayed and slowly adapted to the new environment, just like the mountain people in the Andis Mountains. As time went by, they had
The ancient Andis Empire was forgotten, and a new name and cultural heritage was formed - the Crocodile Clan.
The origin of their name is simple, they are famous for keeping crocodiles and pythons in captivity.
In their villages, crocodiles and pythons are as common as Andis cats and dogs.
In particular, crocodiles have been tamed by them like hounds. They can not only guard homes and protect homes, but also hunt and fight.
In a complex environment like the Swamp of Despair, the War Crocodile can indeed display a more powerful combat effectiveness.
After decades of struggle, the dominance of Getchi City finally fell into the hands of the Kingsley family.
Just like the Andis people in the past, due to the vast territory and sparse population, the connections between them were not close, and there was no complete unity from beginning to end. As time went by, the successors were weak and there was no way to compete with the wealthy Kingsley family.
However, the Kingsley family's rule here only lasted less than ten years before it was overthrown by the mining slaves here, combined with local gangs and the crocodile clan.
At that time, the Kingsley family was caught in the whirlpool of power changes and had no time to pay attention to this place. They waited until the new Grand Duke came to power and found their energy.
Not only was Geqi City turned into an iron barrel by them, but other surrounding towns were also instigated and supported by them to stand on their own feet and become a veritable paradise for exiles.
It's not that the Kingsley family didn't send a large army to eliminate them, but the geographical environment was too complicated, and most of them colluded with the local indigenous crocodile tribe.
When the army is dispatched, it will hold on if it can. If it cannot hold on, it will retreat into the swamp of despair.
As soon as the army withdraws, they will come back again.
After a few iterations, the Kingsley family gave up.
No matter how rich the Kingsley family is, they can't afford to go through such trouble. They can't station a large army just for such a few pieces of land, right?
This will create a void within the military leadership. Once those mining slaves cause trouble, it will shake the foundation of the Kingsley family's rule.
In the end, I had no choice but to turn a blind eye to them, and ended up like this.
Geqi City still maintains its original governance model, with the three forces of the miners' union, gangs and crocodile tribe co-governing.
However, no matter which one of these three is the general name to the outside world, the miners' union is divided into the Liberal Party and the Unionist Party, not to mention the formation of more complex gangs and crocodile clans, and is divided into four or five forces internally.
It's really a mixed bag of fish and dragons, intrigues among each other, and crowd fights are commonplace.
Fortunately, when the fight ended, both sides were more restrained and patient, fighting according to the rules they had set, and did not overturn the table easily.
The arrival of Archduke Buck's emissary has made the situation here more complicated, and a storm is really coming.
Gochi City.
Pig and Whistle Inn.
This hotel was established not long ago, less than five years ago.
But it is the most famous and largest hotel in Geqi City. Twenty-five hours a day, twenty hours are bustling with people.
It was able to rise at such a fast speed not only because the owner of the hotel was very knowledgeable, had close contacts with the three major forces, and was smooth in dealing with things, so that no one could offend anyone.
Also because of the taste and variety of the food and drinks here, I really can’t say anything about it.
After eating here, I basically don't want to go to a second place.
Just like its name, when the whistle sounds for dinner, everyone will turn into pigs and come to answer the whistle.
Many gluttonous diners don't take this kind of ridicule seriously, on the contrary, they are proud of it.
However, what outsiders see is only one side of the hotel. It also has this unknown side - the lair of the Evernight Army leader Hawkeye Special Service in the Swamp of Despair.
It's not that the Hawkeyes of the Eagle Eye Special Service Section don't want to keep a low profile, but in this era, low-key and frequent contact makes them more eye-catching.
It is better to do the opposite and artificially create a flow of people, so that the Eagle Eyes can blend in and become less conspicuous.
Among the many occupations, none is more suitable than a tavern or hotel.
As the saying goes, food is the most important thing for people.
This is needed everywhere, and the destructive power of delicious food is universal.
Among the bustling crowd of drinkers and diners, a slightly thin young man ate all his food, but did not leave immediately. He wandered around, and when he saw no one was paying attention, he turned around and entered.
A secret passage.
He took a large black robe from the wall and put it on himself, covering his face. He picked up the oil lamp next to him and walked through the dark passage for dozens of steps. He stopped in front of a narrow door and for a while
Rhythmic tapping.
A pair of eyes flashed through the peep window, and a low voice asked from behind the door: "Secret code."
"It's going to rain today." The young man's voice was thick and hoarse, and you could tell immediately that it was a deliberately disguised falsetto.
The heavy iron-clad door opened silently, and a man in black robes dressed the same as the young man stood behind the door. His figure and face could not be visually discerned, and only a pair of equally bright eyes were exposed.
The young man did not enter the door immediately. He glanced instinctively and quickly, taking in a panoramic view of the situation inside. Then he entered it leisurely, as tense as a hunting cheetah.
Alertness is the foundation for an Eagle Eye to live and work. Don't trust anyone easily, including those of your own who have not verified their identity.
In the small basement, together with the person who opened the door, there were already seven people gathered. They were all dressed in the same black robes, and they were all sitting silently in various corners.
This is not the regular pattern of the Eagle Eye Special Service Section, it is purely a compromise method made by Getchi City based on local conditions.
The Eagle Eyes of the Eagle Eye Special Service Section usually use a single line of communication. This kind of large-scale gathering is unique, because it is easy to be targeted by others, and then they will start to get involved.
However, the forces in Geqi City are criss-crossed. There are seven or eight named forces alone. The information is intertwined. To maximize the benefits, communication between them is necessary.
Even though the Hawkeye Special Service Section has been expanded and expanded, and Hawkeye recruits every year, they are spread all over the world, and not even one town can do it.
The fact that Geqi City can gather so many Hawkeyes has fully proved that the Yongye Army leaders attach great importance to the strategic deployment of the Swamp of Despair.
Moreover, the fewer people who have access to information, the safer it is.
Keep your identity as secret as possible while conducting comprehensive information exchanges.
Then the current model emerged.
The disadvantage of doing this is that it can easily provide opportunities for those who are interested to sneak into it.
The cautious eagle eyes have naturally developed a set of relatively rigorous verification methods, which are far from as simple as a password. There are as many as five subsequent procedures, and if one of them is wrong, they will be taken down immediately.
The young man who had just entered the door successfully completed the process and confirmed the identities of the other people present. He breathed a long sigh of relief, and his tense body and nerves were somewhat relieved.
This kind of large-scale secret meeting always makes people love and hate it.
Of course, you can get more comprehensive information and instructions here, which is conducive to the smooth development of your work.
But every time, he hangs his life on a thin thread. If he is not careful, he will not only involve himself, but also implicate his brother, causing the overall plan to be damaged.
Now they feel more deeply what the instructors said back then, that as their hometown develops and grows, their situation will become increasingly difficult.
At first, the name of their hometown was unknown. At most, they were discriminated against because of their appearance as Andis people, and they didn't think about espionage at all. It shouldn't be too easy for them to infiltrate.
Now as the reputation of my hometown has risen, other people look at outsiders like them obviously differently. Those who have already taken root have such clear feelings, let alone the new Hawkeye who carries out his mission with a new face.
degree of difficulty.
Every time I think about this, I have to admire His Majesty the General's foresight. He has been making plans for so many years and is several steps ahead of others. It is natural.
