Qi Xuansu and Huangfuji met again, again about the mole.
"Master Gong Da gave me an order to mislead the Gospel Ministry with intelligence. After much thought, I came up with only one way, which was to find out the insider without alerting the Gospel Ministry, and then use this insider to
Ghosts send messages to the gospel ministry to confuse their vision," Qi Xuansu said.
Huangfuji understood immediately, "What Brother Qi Dao means is that someone can use the trick and work in reverse to send wrong intelligence to Joseph and Robert through the spy, leading to wrong judgment, so as to achieve the purpose of concealing the true strategic intention of our army. This
The method is good, and as long as it is used properly, it can be worth tens of thousands of troops."
Qi Xuansu nodded and said, "But the first step is to find out the traitor."
While talking, Qi Xuansu put a list on the table, "These are the suspects selected by our two departments for joint case handling."
Huangfuji spent most of his energy on logistics during this period. Today's artillery shells, tomorrow's food and grass, and the day after tomorrow's military doctors, he paid little attention to the matters of Juesheng Church. This was the first time he saw this list, so he quickly browsed it. "
They are all old people from Xidaomen, many familiar faces."
Qi Xuansu said, "Only in this way can we hide it deeply."
Huangfu looked very carefully at the names on the list. This Xidaomen tiger was aggressive and adventurous, but that didn't mean he was a brainless and reckless man.
Qi Xuansu did not disturb him. After all, Huangfuji knew these people better than Qi Xuansu, and his judgment was more accurate than Qi Xuansu's.
At this moment, Wu Niang appeared in front of Qi Xuansu again. She was still in a state that only Qi Xuansu could see. She was bored. "I thought I could go to the battlefield with you and join the Fire Company. It's better for you to just read files in a small house all day."
, all this cultivation has been wasted."
Qi Xuansu responded, "Westerners have a saying called 'war machine'. The word 'machine' is used very well. We are all parts of this huge machine, and we all serve this machine and perform our own duties."
.If a part wants to break away from this system, or has to face this system, and other gears are rotating forward, but it has to rotate backward, there will be a big problem, either it will be crushed, or the machine will malfunction.
Paralyzed, you have to choose one."
"You are always reasonable. You have said both right and wrong. It is really a loss for the Taoist sect if you don't become a Taoist priest. Fortunately, you have become a Taoist priest." Wuniang started to get angry.
Qi Xuansu didn't take it seriously, "Thank you for the compliment. This is undoubtedly the greatest affirmation for a Taoist priest."
After a while, Huangfu Ji said, "The war has reached this point, and the Holy Court can hardly sit still. The most important thing in the world is the word 'money'.
War is the first cost-burning thing. The Holy Court’s strategy is to fill it with gold and silver. They may not care about human lives, but they have to care about gold pounds and gold crowns. They will definitely use this in the near future.
The insider has even activated this insider to seek a breakthrough from within us."
Qi Xuansu said, "I think so too. This is our opportunity."
Huangfu said slowly, "Since the scope of suspicion has been narrowed to this point, let's set up a trap and catch a turtle in a jar."
"What kind of trick?" Qi Xuansu asked.
Huangfu Ji said, "It's very simple, just use the elimination method. For these people to leak different information, which piece of information the Holy Court reacts to, who is the insider. The information is all true, as long as they are loyal to Xidaomen, then leak it
The intelligence is not leaked. A mole can only leak one piece of intelligence in the end. As long as the mole who instigated Hu Enchawen's rebellion is caught, I think it is a good deal."
Qi Xuansu thought for a while, "We can give it a try, but this person can connect the Holy Court and Hu Enchawen. He must be scheming, and he may not fall into the trap. And we can't wrongly accuse a good person. If this person sees through our plan, he will do something backhand."
What about blaming others?"
Huangfu Ji said, "We are just identifying the target, and we will conduct in-depth investigations later. We will not wrongly accuse a good person. Moreover, each piece of information only targets one person and must be kept strictly confidential. If Brother Qi and I are both tested, I
It's that traitor. I only know the content of the information in my hand, and I don't know the content of the information in Brother Qi's hand. How can I blame Brother Qi? But if I know the content of the information in Brother Qi's hand, then Qi Dao
Even if my brother leaks the secret, it can't be said to be unjust."
Qi Xuansu nodded, "That's okay, but when leaking information, you need to pay attention to the method and method. It can't be too blunt. You have to do the trick well."
Huangfu laughed extremely, "Those who work in this field are all masters of acting. Just leave it to them."
This is the advantage of being a leader. As long as the general direction is set, the people below will figure out how to implement it. This is the so-called "I only want results."
The two discussed for half the night, mainly about what information should be leaked.
It cannot be directly related to fundamental secrets, such as the main direction of attack decided by Gong Da Zhenren, otherwise the drama of digging out the mole will not be able to play. The fundamental purpose is to mislead the Holy Court's strategic judgment. But ordinary small intelligence cannot be used
To catch such a big fish, it must be a bit fierce.
Because it was difficult for an outsider like Qi Xuansu to talk when it came to Xidaomen, it was Huangfu Ji who finally made up his mind.
The intelligence is multifaceted and even diverse, including information about defense deployment, food and grass, personnel, Taoist movements, and ammunition reserves.
On the next day, Huangfu made very careful arrangements and handed over the tasks in several batches, with different people in charge and no overlap.
After the arrangements were made, Huangfuji said to Qi Xuansu, "Now we have to wait for the result. If it were normal times, this cunning big fish might not act rashly, and we might not be able to catch big fish with this little bait, but now the Holy Court has
If he wants to win quickly due to financial pressure, it will definitely put pressure on him, so he has to move even if he doesn't want to, and this is our opportunity."
In the next two days, nothing happened. Qi Xuansu and Huangfuji did not wait around. They continued to investigate when it was time to do so, and did not pin all their hopes on "fishing."
On the fourth day, the Holy Court finally responded.
The Holy Court launched an attack on an armory in Tawanting. They directly dispatched three airships and launched a carpet bombing of the armory. The scene was like a sea of fire, and then the bombing triggered a fire inside the armory.
With the explosion, the entire armory turned into a mushroom-shaped black cloud rising into the air.
Don't underestimate an armory. A large amount of ammunition is stored here, which will make the situation of the defenders more difficult and help the Holy Court siege the city. Burning grain and grass is a classic tactic at all times and in all countries. Many times, it's not people who can't hold on.
Yes, but because we ran out of ammunition and food.
Huangfu was greatly relieved, and immediately based on the intelligence comparison, he initially locked the target.
This person's surname is Du, Du Juanzhi, and she is a woman. According to the Xidaomen system, she is a third-grade Youyi Taoist priest. Although her status is not low, she is not really a high-level person within Xidaomen, and she is on the same level as a pseudo-immortal.
There is still a lot to be desired. It is hard to imagine that such a person helped Hu En Chawen connect with the Holy Court.
Qi Xuansu read the profile of this person, which included a portrait. He was average in appearance, not outstanding in appearance, rather dull, taciturn, and a bit unsociable, but he did not make things difficult for others. He was considered a good-natured person, not the kind of smooth-talking person.
temper.
If Qi Xuansu went to investigate on his own, I am afraid that he would not easily suspect this person, at least not immediately. It can be seen that Beichen Hall and Juesheng Hall are not just freeloaders. They constantly narrowed the scope and did not miss her.
She fell out, and finally relied on Huangfu Ji’s elimination method to screen her out.
Apart from this
In addition, Huangfuji also asked about the casualties and losses in the armory. The specific losses in ordnance were irreparable, but the injured must be treated well and the dead must be heavily compensated.
As for whether these people died of injuries caused by Huangfuji, Huangfuji didn't care.
Casualties are just a number, he only wants the optimal result with minimal losses.
If the mole cannot be dug out, the losses in the future will definitely be greater and more people will die. Huangfu Ji used intelligence to eliminate problems, which determined that someone would definitely have bad luck.
Compassion does not control soldiers, it is never an empty statement.
At this moment, Qi Xuansu had another glimpse of light before his eyes.
So far, Qi Xuansu has no idea what the principle behind the activation of the "Gui Zang Lantern" is. It seems to be completely random.
What Qi Xuansu saw this time was still the future, but it had nothing to do with him and everything to do with Huangfu Ji.
It seemed that many years later, Huangfu was obviously much older, and his short beard had turned into a long beard. A sword was inserted into his chest and passed through his heart.
However, Huangfu seemed to be fine and his expression was calm.
There was another man who was seriously injured and was taken down by Huangfuji's attendants and forced to kneel on the ground. However, he still held his head high and cursed Huangfuji for betraying them. If it weren't for Huangfuji, his brothers wouldn't have done it.
He will die under the bombing of the Westerners. He is here to take revenge today.
Huangfu Ji finally remembered the past of "fishing" many years ago, but he still didn't care.
People always die in wars. When a large army retreats, it is difficult for those who stay behind to survive. Is this also betrayal?
In a war, everyone can die. Even Huangfuji himself almost died in the hands of Joseph. How could a person who didn't care about his own life care about the lives of others?
Huangfu Ji reached out and grasped the hilt of the sword on his chest and pulled out the sword. Because the sword did not hurt his body or mind, the wound healed quickly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in the end nothing was left.
Huangfu Ji threw the long sword on the ground and "let him go."
The scene ends abruptly here.
Qi Xuansu came back to his senses and felt a little emotional.
Once upon a time, he was also such a little person who couldn't help himself, so he was unwilling to follow Qiniang's advice, give up the freedom of the world, and enter the strict hierarchy of Taoism.
Everyone knows the sorrow of little people. Everyone wants to control their own destiny, so everyone wants to climb up.
