Chapter 1118: The Secret of the Inner Guard


Xinjing.

When Chu Ge came to the palace martial arts training ground, Zhao Ziliang was practicing martial arts, so he did not disturb him.

After finishing training, Zhao Ziliang saw him standing on the edge of the martial arts training ground, so he waved to him and told him to come over.

After practicing for an hour and the hot weather, Zhao Ziliang was soaked to the skin.

He took off his wet clothes and put on clean clothes before asking, "What's the rush for coming here so early?"

Chu Ge cupped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, a red-feathered messenger came from Huazizm late last night to deliver the battle report.

After Yang Guangliang received the order from Wei Meng of the Fifth Army, he immediately united with the troops of General Bo Cheng of Huazizm to attack and defeat them. cross-border The Dashi army had three thousand cavalry.

Later, Yang Guangliang, the supervisor Cao Decao, and the deputy general Huang Yongyi led the army to avoid the defeat of the Dashi army.

They captured the border towns of Guchang City and Mashad City in one fell swoop, killing five thousand enemies in total.

The remaining people were captured, and more than 600 people were captured."

Zhao Ziliang was very happy after hearing this: "Oh, is that right?

It seems that Yang Guangliang is quite capable."

Speaking of this, Zhao Ziliang thought of something and asked: "He led his troops to attack and defeat the Dashi army across the border to obey the order.

Could it be that when he crossed the border to attack Guchang City and Mashad City in the Dashi Kingdom, he also obeyed the military order.

Wei Meng What are the orders given to him?"

Chu Ge clasped his fists and said: "This is what I want to know.

The general led his troops into a neighboring country to attack the city without the royal court's order.

This is a very serious act.

Moreover, our country and the Dashi Country are not completely In a state of hostility, the generals stationed at the border have no right to act without authorization.

Therefore, Wei Chen rushed to the Military Academy this morning and immediately sent people to Huacizm to investigate the matter. " Zhao Ziliang frowned: "It's nothing.

If you have something to say, just say it.

Don't hesitate."

"Yes" Chu Ge continued: "But if the military order issued by Wei Meng is vague, I think it is better not to pursue this matter, so as not to dampen the enthusiasm of the soldiers at the front.

After all, the Dashi Kingdom has gone too far this time. , according to micro As I know, Honglu Temple has been negotiating with the Dashi Kingdom, hoping and warning them to immediately evacuate the troops crossing the border.

However, the Dashi Nation has been clamoring, and Yang Guangliang has also sent people to confront the opposing Dashi Army several times.

Negotiate and warn him We asked them to withdraw, but Da Shiren didn't buy it at all.

Let Yang Guangliang take Guchang City and Mashad.

On the one hand, it would let Da Shi Country know that we are definitely not afraid to fight.

This is considered as a gift to them.

A little lesson; on the other hand, by taking the initiative to cross the boundary and enter the country of Dashi this time, it can also alleviate the grievances of the soldiers and the emotions of our officials and people in the Western Qin Dynasty.

If we repeatedly attack the country of Dashi, There is no response to the provocation, and the people will only be disappointed with the royal court."

Zhao Ziliang thought for a while, nodded and said: "What you said makes sense, let's just do it.

Those who should investigate should still investigate and submit the results to me for review after the investigation is completed."

"I understand whether the king still needs to give instructions on Yang Guangliang's next move."

"He is not needed for instructions.

Since Yang Guangliang has led his troops into the territory of the Great Food Country, let him do the trouble for the time being.

Before the Great Food Country has not responded, Wang Ting has not expressed his position for the time being.

Doesn't the Great Food Country like to provoke me?"

Let’s see how Mansour responds this time.”

"If the king has no other instructions, I will leave."

After Chu Ge left, Zhao Ziliang studied the current situation and ordered people to find Dugu Wensu.

Soon, Dugu Wensu came to the Qinzheng Hall and said, "I want to pay my respects to the king.

I don't know what the king ordered to call the ministers here."

Zhao Ziliang waved his hand: "I have something to ask you.

Didn't you say last time that the Dashi Country sent many spies to our country to investigate hostile activities in the name of missionary work?"

Dugu Wensao was stunned for a moment, and said to himself that he didn’t know why the king thought of asking about this matter today.

He came back to his senses and answered, "Yes, Your Majesty.

These fake missionaries of Dashi are exploring the military strength in various parts of our country in the name of preaching.

Deployment and mountain and river terrain” Zhao Ziliang said: "Please tell me roughly how you discovered it and how you dealt with it."

"Yes" Dugu Wensu agreed and spoke immediately.

It was obvious that he was quite familiar with the matter.

"The first discovery that a Dashi country missionary was spying on our country's military situation in the name of missionary work occurred in Guishang Prefecture.

Some local people discovered that a Dashi country monk often inquired about the local garrison situation during his spare time.

Later, there were military camps The sentry found that this man was sneaking around frequently.

He was not near the military camp, so he became suspicious.

After catching him, he notified the Guishang Prefecture government.

The government sent officers to patrol and search his residence, and found some map maps, which were the topographic maps of mountains, rivers and rivers in Guishang Prefecture.

It not only depicts the terrain of mountains, rivers and rivers in detail, but also There were extremely detailed military deployment notes.

The Guishang Prefecture government did not dare to neglect and immediately conducted a strict interrogation of him.

At the same time, he reported to the Government Affairs Council that Master Cen Shen was seriously ill at that time.

It was Wei Chen who handled the matter.

After the report, immediately give an order to the Patrol Headquarters and ask them to report to various departments.

The Prefectural Patrol Bureau issued an order to strictly investigate the preaching situation of the Dashi monks.

This investigation revealed a big problem.

All the prefectures and counties close to the Dashi Country discovered Dashi Xizuo pretending to be monks.

Later, the Internal Guard Yamen intervened and took over After this case, the details of the subsequent circumstances are unknown.”

Zhao Ziliang thought for a moment and told Dugu Wensu: "In view of the fact that the Dashi Kingdom uses monks to enter our country under the guise of preaching to engage in espionage and other hostile activities, from now on, the Government Affairs Council will immediately draft relevant bans to prohibit all foreign missionaries and monks from using the guise of preaching. and members of other sects who enter our country to preach at will.

All border checkpoints, outposts, and even the passes and patrol bureaus in the hinterland of our country must be more vigilant and strictly check the identities of those who are not members of our Western Qin sect.

If anything suspicious is found, immediately Check in detail" Dugu Wensu cupped his hands and said, "Yes, Wei Chen will order someone to draft relevant bans when he returns."

The Dashi Kingdom sent a large number of missionaries to infiltrate and spy on intelligence.

Zhao Ziliang was a little dissatisfied with the ability of the Internal Guard Yamen.

Such large-scale espionage activities were not discovered in time by the Internal Guard Yamen.

Instead, the military and local patrols The Bureau was the first to discover the situation.

After Dugu Wensu left, Zhao Ziliang sent an eunuch to inform Zhou Shan, the commander of the inner guard, to come and ask questions.

Zhou Shan was one of the first people to follow Zhao Ziliang.

When Zhao Ziliang was the governor of Suiye Governor's Mansion and rebuilt the Suiye Governor's Mansion, Zhou Shan was the inspection captain in his army, responsible for inspecting military discipline.

"The humble minister Zhou Shan meets the king"

The Neiwei Yamen is neither a military system nor a patrol system.

It is a system of its own.

If you have to define them, they should be classified as secret agents.

"Get up.

The reason why I brought you here today is to send a large number of missionaries from the Great Food Country to infiltrate our country in the name of missionary work.

In fact, you are secretly spying on hostile activities.

I don't understand.

This is supposed to be your inner-guard office.

However, the military and the local patrol bureau took the lead, and a large number of enemy spies sneaked in.

Your internal security office did not discover and get the news first.

What do you have to explain to me about this?"

Zhou Shan had known for a long time that Zhao Ziliang might be held accountable for this matter.

This was a major mistake in the first place.

He did not expect to shirk responsibility.

Moreover, during this period, he was rectifying and improving the relevant functions of the Internal Security Office and trying his best to improve it.

Case handling capabilities and intelligence gathering capabilities.

Zhou Shan bowed down and said: "This matter is indeed the result of Wei Chen's negligence.

Wei Chen did not expect that the great cannibal would use monks to spy on information.

This is Wei Chen's fault.

Please punish me.

This time Wei Chen has been thinking Methods to improve the intelligence collection capabilities of internal security yamen in various regions.

Previously, internal security yamen branches could only be deployed to the state and county level at most, and below the state and county level.

There is no dispatching agency at the county level.

Regarding the matter of sending monks and missionaries to spy on hostile activities in the country of food, Wei Chen discussed with other officials and colleagues of the Internal Guard Yamen and believed that the Internal Guard should be improved in several aspects.

The intelligence gathering capabilities of the yamen, the ability to handle hostile activities, and the improvement of the personal combat capabilities of officials and spies handling cases."

"Oh" Zhao Ziliang became interested, "Get up first and tell me in detail."

"Yes" Zhou Shan agreed with clasped fists, stood up and said: "First of all, the dispatch agencies must be deployed to the county level.

The number of people in each county-level dispatch agency cannot be too many, no more than five people at most, otherwise the funding expenditure will cause the internal security yamen to It’s unaffordable, and this will allow us to learn the underlying news as quickly as possible.”

"Second, expand the scope of recruitment of spies.

Weichen believes that spies should be recruited from all walks of life and select people who are smart, quick to respond on the spot, and have strong coping skills.

This can expand the scope of intelligence collection."

"Third, classify the case-handling personnel of the internal defense yamen into spies, agents, assassins, civilians and officials.

Spies are a type of people who hide their identities.

Very few people know of their existence, and their files are kept by dedicated personnel. .

Detectives are people who perform arrest and interrogation tasks, while assassins specialize in assassinating those who are not suitable for arrest but cannot allow the target to continue.

Those who survive are mainly civil servants who stayed behind in the yamen.

In order to increase their enthusiasm for intelligence collection and case handling, Weichen believes that we can consider increasing rewards for them.

Every time a piece of useful information is collected or a case is completed, the relevant personnel will be rewarded.

You can get some additional rewards, and the source of this part of the rewards is mainly the stolen money seized from handling the case."

"Fourth, find a way to improve the combat effectiveness of the people in the internal defense yamen.

You can consider setting up a training hall to provide targeted training for each person recruited, such as intelligence collection, reaction ability and on-the-spot response ability for spies. training in criminal investigation and combat skills for detectives; training on survival ability and assassination skills for assassins, etc.

Such training must be conducted at certain intervals to ensure that their abilities will not appear declining situation” "Fifth, our internal security yamen is a special yamen.

It is a government yamen that cannot be exposed to the sun.

We may be attacked at any time during the execution of our tasks.

We must have our own survival skills.

We must equip our people with He also had the right weapons at his disposal, so Wei Chen believed that the internal defense yamen should have its own weapons and equipment forge."

"The above is the method that I have sorted out after discussion during this period.

However, to complete these things requires a lot of funds, and a fixed amount must be invested regularly every year.

Maybe more will be added every year in the future."

Zhao Ziliang thought for a while and agreed: "Okay, I agree.

You go back and write a specific statement and submit it to me for review.

To keep it confidential, the statement will be submitted directly to me for review without going through the general affairs envoy."

"Weak ministers obey the decree":
