Zhao Ziliang frowned after listening to Ma Sui's words.
Intelligence collection in the Middle East was originally the responsibility of Dongchang, but since the Mahdi's forces were driven out of North Africa and the forces of the Eastern Roman Empire were also driven out of Syria, the Middle East They are all included in the scope of Xi Qin's strength, so the intelligence collection in the Middle East should always be within the responsibility of the Internal Guard Yamen.
After all, this is a counter-intelligence matter and the duty of the Internal Guard Yamen.
However, the military and the Neiwei Yamen are two different systems, and they cannot be affected by eight poles.
Even if someone in the military is incited to rebel or is a spy, the internal counterintelligence agency of the military is responsible for investigation and investigation, which is the same as the Neiwei Yamen.
It's not relevant, but the scale and capabilities of the military's counterintelligence agencies are far inferior to those of the Internal Guard Yamen.
Zhao Ziliang asked Wan Qingming, the head of Dongchang who was standing next to him: "The Eastern Roman Empire and the Mahdist forces sent spies in the Middle East to incite local residents and people to oppose our rule in Western Qin.
Do you, Dongchang, know about this?"
Of course Dongchang is aware of it.
As the largest foreign intelligence agency, how could it be that it is not clear about these things?
Wan Qingming stood up and said, "Your Majesty, Dongchang is certainly aware of it, but because of the different divisions of authority, we only know this However, there was no trace of the whereabouts of those sent there.
Generally, the military’s internal counter-espionage department and the internal defense yamen are responsible for this matter."
Zhao Ziliang's frown deepened, and he asked again: "Who is the person in charge of the Neiwei Yamen in this area?"
Wan Qingming said: "It seems to be Ye Zhiwen.
This person should be active in the Jerusalem area now.
They should have a secret stronghold here, but it is very secret.
Most of their internal staff do not know about it."
Zhao Ziliang said: "After many intelligence problems have occurred over the years, Gu found that the East Factory, West Factory, Internal Guards, and the military's internal counter-espionage offices all seemed to avoid suspicion of each other and never stepped into each other's control.
I have very little contact with Wan Qingming, please tell me why."
Wan Qingming hesitated and clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, this is mainly to protect the safety and purity within the organization."
Zhao Ziliang shook his head and said: "What you said makes sense, but for the sake of safety and purity, you avoid contact with several other intelligence systems and avoid suspicion.
This is inconsistent with the original purpose of setting up these intelligence agencies.
You are doing this It is indeed very safe, but it is not necessary to improve the security.
This is not the only way to maintain internal purity.
Your approach has greatly reduced the efficiency of gathering intelligence and preventing enemy infiltration; at the same time, it has also made you lose the competitive nature of such intelligence.
The organization is not what I need, I allocate it to you every year Millions of dollars of funding, but you have given me such a few freaks.
It seems that we must set up some reward and punishment measures.
From now on, no matter which organization we are, we will only focus on intelligence collection.
The importance of quantity and intelligence.
The higher the data of these two organizations, the more economic benefits they gain.
The more you spend, the less you pay.
Of course, when it comes to the security of the kingdom, any intelligence organization has the obligation to use the fastest and most stable method to prevent the enemy's actions, including informing its counterparts in the country, so that colleagues who can solve the problem faster can take action. , rather than delaying fighter jets to prevent the enemy's actions for personal gain."
Wan Qingming immediately understood the role of Zhao Ziliang's new regulations.
If he wanted to obtain more intelligence and more important information, in addition to being responsible for matters within his own scope of authority, he would also have to find ways to steal the business of other intelligence organizations.
If The information that belongs to the Neiwei Yamen was received by Dongchang first.
As long as there are more and more such things, the performance of the Neiwei Yamen will inevitably decline, while the performance of Dongchang will increase.
However, if Dongchang discovers that there is information that the enemy wants to harm the West Qin State, and the person who can handle the case the fastest and most effectively is the Neiwei Yamen, Dongchang must immediately report the news to the Neiwei Yamen and strengthen cooperation.
If Dongchang concealed the information for the sake of performance and did not report it to the internal security office.
Once discovered, he would definitely be punished.
"It seems that we need to deploy people to the inner and outer yamen and the West Factory to get the source of information from them."
Wan Qingming muttered in his heart.
Zhao Ziliang thought for a moment and said to Wan Qingming: "No matter what method you use, bring Ye Zhiwen here to see Gu within three days, otherwise you, the deputy governor of Dongchang, will stop doing this."
Wan Qingming had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree: "I obey."
Most of Dongchang's strength is concentrated externally, with very little inside the West Qin Kingdom.
However, there are still some informants in the Middle East.

After all, this was once the scope of activities of Dongchang's spies.
After three days of continuous efforts, Wan Qingming finally found Ye Zhiwen, the person in charge of the Neiwei Yamen in this area.
The hood on his head was taken off, and Ye Zhiwen slowly opened his eyes to let them adapt to the light in the room.
After he saw everyone's environment clearly, he looked at the people around him.
A familiar face appeared in front of Ye Zhiwen.
Ye Zhilong was surprised, but then he said angrily: "Wan Qingming, it's you, what do you want to do?"
Wan Qingming came up to him and said: "Master Ye, I'm sorry, someone wants to see you, but Wan spent a lot of effort to dig you out, so I ask you to cooperate."
Ye Zhiwen immediately became vigilant.
Several major intelligence organizations in Western Qin have always kept their distance.
This kind of kidnapping of high-level personnel from both sides is a huge thing.
It has never happened.
It is no wonder that Ye Zhiwen encountered him this time.
He was shocked and angry.
If Wan Qingming was not the deputy governor of Dongchang, he would almost doubt whether Wan Qingming had been instigated by the enemy to rebel.
Ye Zhiwen stared at Wan Qingming and asked: "Who wants to see me?"
"A person you can't refuse," Wan Qingming said and immediately waved his hand, "Come here, take Mr.
Ye with you, let's go."
It wasn't until Ye Zhiwen was brought to the Chinese army's large tent in the military camp that he guessed that it was Zhao Ziliang who wanted to see him.
After Ye Zhiwen followed Wan Qingming into the big tent, he saw that it was Zhao Ziliang sitting on the main seat.
Wan Qingming bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, I have brought Ye Zhiwen here."
Ye Zhiwen immediately bowed down and saluted: "Ye Zhiwen, the commander of the Middle East of the Imperial Guard Yamen, pays homage to Your Majesty, long live, long live" Zhao Ziliang looked at Ye Zhiwen and said: "Master Ye, I have to wait for three days to see you.
You are the only one in Western Qin for your arrogance."
Ye Zhiwen suddenly had cold sweat on his forehead, and immediately kowtowed: "Your Majesty, I am guilty of not being able to come to see you in time.
I have too many affairs in the Middle East these days.
Although I know that Your Majesty has arrived, I really can't spare the time.
Come and see me”
"Oh, tell me, what have you been doing recently?"
Ye Zhiwen said: "Your Majesty, in recent years, the Internal Security Office has been conducting large-scale investigations in the Middle East against the agents sent by the Eastern Roman Empire and the Mahdist forces.
It has reached a critical stage recently, so I really cannot be separated in time.
Come to see His Majesty" Zhao Ziliang touched his chin and asked: "Then how did your investigation go?"
Ye Zhiwen said: "We have reached the final stage.
I have sent a detailed report to Mr.
Zhou, the Governor of the Internal Security Bureau, requesting that action be taken to catch all these people.
We are currently waiting for a reply from Beijing because this operation not only involves all the people in the Middle East."
The Governor’s Palace also involves the local garrison, so it will take a lot of time to coordinate.”
"You mean you have figured out the details of all the agents sent by the Eastern Roman Empire and the Mahdist forces."
"Yes, Your Majesty" "Do you have a list?"
"Yes" Ye Zhiwen took out a booklet from his arms without hesitation and presented it with both hands.
Eunuch Cao Yingxiang stepped forward to take the booklet and presented it to Zhao Ziliang.
Zhao Ziliang took it and opened it to read.
The book recorded the names, addresses, ages and genders of many people, as well as their apparent identities.
Some people on the list had already been mixed into the local governor's palace or the servant army, and several more were The generals of the servant army and several other officials in the governor's mansions.
Zhao Ziliang frowned after reading the roster, "No wonder our military operations in the Middle East are informed in advance by the organizers of the riots, the Mahdist forces and the Eastern Roman Empire every time.
It turns out that their forces have penetrated into the governor's palace and servants.
"Military top brass" The generals and officials in the big tent were shocked when they heard this.

Wei Meng, who had a bad temper, said angrily: "These damn cannibals and Byzantines are really pervasive.
According to me, they should be killed and killed."
It will flow like a river and leave no stone unturned, let’s see who among them dares to secretly oppose us.”
Everyone curled their lips at his words and didn't bother to argue with him.
They all knew that only his simple mind would say such ignorant words.
Zhao Ziliang said to Ye Zhiwen: "There is no need to wait for Zhou Shan's reply.
The action of eliminating these agents and the traitors who were bribed, drawn in, instigated, and coerced and lured will be carried out immediately.
You are fully responsible for it.
The Guhui has issued an order to all governor-general offices. , Garrison troops stationed in various places send troops to cooperate, I don’t care about your method, as long as the results are reported to Zhou Shan, I will tell you.”
Ye Zhiwen immediately clasped his fists and said: "I obey the order" That afternoon, Ye Zhiwen led his soldiers and horses to launch operations in and around Jerusalem and arrested many people.
Within the next month, large-scale arrest operations were launched across the Middle East.
Many cannibals and Persians , Kurds, Armenians, and Byzantines were arrested and imprisoned on charges of espionage.
However, the Neiwei Yamen spent several years on this case to grasp all the circumstances of those people.
Before, they had always played a long game to catch the big fish and kept silent.
This time, they eradicated and uprooted them all at once. .
The reason why the Eastern Roman Empire and the Mahdist forces were able to install so many spies in the Middle East in just a few years was mainly because they used tools such as the Church and the Food Cult to carry out espionage activities.
This method is also the most effective. means, but after this big In a large-scale purge operation, Western Qin had rescued all their informants in the Middle East.
The two countries would no longer be able to obtain corresponding intelligence from the Middle East in a short period of time.
This was what Zhao Ziliang did before the third Western Expedition.
The preparations made the enemy blind and deaf
