Chapter 109: Gossip (Part II)

After dinner, Luo Yue came to the rest tent arranged for himself, roughly sorted out the situation in the camp, and then prepared to rest. At this moment, the guards came to report to him, and Xie Tao and Zhu Nanzhen asked to see him.

Luo Yue was stunned, is it difficult to have the statistical results now? This is also a little too fast, because it is only more than one hour before dinner, of course, it may also be that the relevant statistical work has already started before, so Luo Yue also asked the guards to invite the two of them in.

However, after the two of them came in, their faces were quite solemn, and it was obvious that there was another emergency. Luo Yue wondered if there was a new discovery during the statistics, Xie Tao said: "General Luo, we just got a new situation, so we rushed to report to you." ”

Luo Yue immediately said, "What's the situation." ”

Xie Tao said: "Someone reported to us that someone in the camp is organizing, preparing to petition us tomorrow, to do a ritual in the camp, to sacrifice to the sky, worship the gods and Buddha, and ask for blessings and disasters." ”

Luo Yue was stunned for a moment, and then immediately understood, he couldn't imagine that he really underestimated the hidden personnel of the Red Lotus Sect, they really dared to act, and actually made such a request to the camp, but was this action premeditated, or was it temporarily decided because of his own arrival? Luo Yue thought for a moment and said, "Who reported this situation to you. ”

Xie Tao said: "There are two people, one is the squadron leader of the security team, named Jiang Yongqi, and the other is the manager of the camp, named Zhang Li. ”

Luo Yue nodded and said, "Where are these two people now?"

Xie Tao said: "I have brought it, just wait outside the tent." ”

Luo Yue said: "Okay, call them in, I will ask them in detail." Also, call Gu Liyuan and Wu Daosheng as well, I'm afraid we will have another meeting. ”

Due to the increase in the number of people in the camp now, the number of security teams as many as more than 60, in order to better manage the security team, the position of squadron leader is set up in the security team, a squadron leader is in charge of 5 security teams, a total of more than 300 people, and manages the order of 20 camps, and the whole camp has a total of 12 squadron leaders. Due to Jiang Yongqi's outstanding performance in his previous role as a security captain, he was appointed as one of the 12 squadron leaders.

After being promoted, Jiang Yongqi of course worked hard, conscientious, and lived in the camp for nearly 3 months, participated in the training of the security team, so that Jiang Yongqi understood a lot of truth, after all, he is older, and has seen some of the world before, and other young people are different, not by a moment of anger and enthusiasm, but has recognized that East China will inevitably become a big thing, and he is also a blessing in disguise this time, and he has a chance to get in touch with East China, so he should naturally firmly seize this opportunity in East China will be regarded as a meritorious service from the dragon in the future, and maybe he will be able to be crowned as a general and a wife.

There were all kinds of rumors in the camp, of course Jiang Yongqi knew about it, but he didn't care too much about it, and it was normal for Bi Jing to spread some rumors. Jiang Yongqi only recorded and reported in detail all the rumors he heard in accordance with the requirements of the command, and at the same time argued and refuted the rumors that were spread.

But just this afternoon, Jiang Yongqi learned from several members of the security team that some people in several camps were organizing and agitating to petition the camp headquarters tomorrow, asking for Jiao practice in the camps and asking for blessings and disasters. Jiang Yongqi was also taken aback, this action was no longer to spread gossip, but enough to form gangs and gossip to confuse the public, and once such a crime was confirmed, the result of punishment would be expulsion from the camp.

So whether you are reporting routinely as before, or exercising the privilege of the squadron leader, when encountering emergencies, you can report directly to the command to save time. However, Jiang Yongqi couldn't be sure, so he went to Zhang Li to discuss.

Zhang Li also vaguely heard some of this rumor, but he couldn't be sure yet, and listening to Jiang Yongqi's words, he could basically be sure, it seemed that it was really right. After all, he had learned modern knowledge and knew that East China was very disgusted with this kind of superstitious activity, and this petition was obviously not so simple, so he suggested that Jiang Yongqi report directly to the headquarters in the name of emergencies, and also expressed his willingness to report with Jiang Yongqi. So the two rushed to the headquarters together and reported the situation to Xie Tao and Zhu Nanzhen.

Xie Tao and Zhu Nanzhen knew more things than them, so after hearing this, they realized that this situation was very important, so the two of them immediately took Jiang Yongqi, Zhang Li, and called Gu Liyuan and Wu Daosheng to ask to see Luo Yue overnight.

Everyone gathered in Luo Yue's tent for a meeting, Jiang Yongqi and Zhang Li were also allowed by Luo Yue to make an exception to attend the meeting, and both of them were quite flattered, and it was a high honor to be able to participate in such a meeting. So the two of them first explained what they knew to everyone in detail

After Luo Yue listened, he also nodded and said, "Very good, the two of you are very alert, this situation is very important, the two of you report very well and do a good job." ”

Jiang Yongqi and Zhang Li were also surprised and delighted when they heard this, it seemed that they had done the right thing. And Luo Yue turned to the others and said, "What do you think?"

Gu Liyuan first said: "Do you know how many people will participate in this petition?"

Jiang Yongqi shook his head and said, "I don't know this, I only know that there are people in the East 25th and 28th camps, and I don't know the situation in other camps." ”

Zhang Li said: "In my opinion, the number of participants will not be very large, one is that although there have been a lot of rumors recently, there are not many people who really believe it; ”

Wu Daosheng also said: "I also don't think there will be too many people participating, at most only a few hundred people, maybe only 1 or 200 people participating." ”

Gu Liyuan shook his head and said, "This kind of unfounded speculation has no value." ”

Luo Yue frowned, and said: "It's meaningless to study the number of people now, and I can't study it, Guan Jian is what action we should take, start arresting people according to the current situation, and then open a gap from the arrested personnel; ”

Gu Liyuan hesitated for a moment before he said: "If you start arresting people now, I'm afraid you can only catch some of them, there will definitely be a lot of fish that slip through the net, and it will be even more difficult to catch others than to ascend to the sky." But if we wait until tomorrow when they start petitioning, we will arrest them, and if there are few people, it will be easy to do, but if there are many people who participate in the petition, hundreds or even thousands, I am afraid that it will be difficult to do. ”

Zhu Nanzhen said: "Whatever is difficult to do, we will arrest as many people as there are to participate, and we will not engage in any law and not blame the public." I think it's better to wait until tomorrow, when they start petitioning, to arrest them, so that they can catch them all once and for all. ”

Xie Tao shook his head and said, "I can't say that, I don't think the hidden personnel of the Red Lotus Sect will participate in this petition, I'm afraid that they will push others out as a shield, while they are hiding in the shadows and watching the changes." ”

Wu Daosheng said: "This kind of practice is very possible. ”

Zhu Nanzhen said: "So what? Aren't we about to divide the dormant personnel of the Red Lotus Sect today? We will all arrest them together tomorrow, and even if the dormant personnel of the Red Lotus Sect do not participate in this petition, the people who participated in the petition must have been instigated by them, so if the people who participated in the petition are arrested for the first trial, we can be tried, so that all the dormant personnel of the Red Lotus Sect can be dug out by peeling back the layers of cocoons. Isn't that great!"

Xie Tao still shook his head and said: "This idea is theoretically feasible, but there are too many variables in the implementation, first of all, we can't be sure how many people will participate in the petition tomorrow; in fact, we can't be sure how many people are affected by gossip in the camp, although there are not many people affected by gossip, but how many people are this is not much! There are now nearly 130,000 people in our camp, so 2, 3,000 people are affected by gossip and 2, 300 people are affected by gossip, which can be regarded as a small number, but these two numbers are very different from our arrest tomorrow! Therefore, I think that the uncertain factors of tomorrow's arrest are too great, and it is too risky, and if it is not done well, it will cause turmoil in the entire camp. Search, in the end, even if you can't clean up all the lurking personnel of the Red Lotus Sect, you can also clear eight or nine times out of ten, and there are a few fish that have slipped through the net, and you can't make many waves. This is the safest approach and the least risky. ”

After finishing speaking, Xie Tao's eyes looked at Luo Yue, while the others also looked at Luo Yue, obviously waiting for him to make a final decision.

Luo Yue pondered for a while before he said, "I want to ask you a question first, that is, we are now arresting and catching some of the Red Lotus Sect's underdogs, but if you are the remaining Red Lotus Sect's sleepers who have not been caught, then what will you do next? Whether to continue to lurk, or to take action immediately, even if you take risks, you will not hesitate." ”

Everyone was silent for a while, obviously thinking about the question raised by Luo Yue. I don't know how long it took, Zhu Nanzhen slapped his hands fiercely and said: "If I were an undercover member of the Red Lotus Sect who had not been caught, I would definitely take a risk and act immediately, because as long as some of the personnel were caught, we might be able to find out more people, so there was no point in continuing to lurk, and we could only fight hard to make a last stand." In other words, the infiltrators who are now arresting the Red Lotus Sect do not dare to act, which is not established at all. It's better to wait until tomorrow and catch them all in the best way. ”

Xie Tao also nodded and said, "Yes, my thoughts are indeed inconsiderate. I am also in favor of arresting them tomorrow and catching them all. ”

Luo Yue said: "Okay, then let's discuss tomorrow's arrest now, as well as the plan for follow-up actions." ”
