Chapter 1169: Carrying on the Past and Forging Ahead (59) A New Mission
In the heavy snow, Qiao Wan's house lit a raging fire, and the villagers who rushed to hear the news couldn't extinguish this strange flame even if they tried their best, and some people guessed that this must be a fire set by Qiao's family themselves.
Qiao Tang was naturally furious, the next day, when the Qiao family arrived in Qiaojia Village from Qiao County with a big red sedan chair, all they saw was a pile of ruins, and his beauty had long disappeared, and Qiao Huai, the son of Qiao Tang, who rushed to hear the news, immediately mobilized the forces he could to hunt down the Qiao family after inspecting the dead bodies that had burned to the point of not being able to look at the ashes road, but unfortunately, after this area was operated in the Han Dynasty for more than half a year, the power of the Chu court was almost destroyed, and now although they are making a comeback, But if he wants to restore his rule here, it obviously takes time, and the people are extremely uncooperative, and his opponent is a powerful Inspectorate action team, Qiao Huai has been tossing and turning for more than ten days, but he has found nothing, and finally can only end in disgrace.
This matter, in the Chu State, is really a small thing, Qiao Rongniang is an extremely important person for Ye Feng, but for the Chu State, it is just an ordinary person who has disappeared, and for the ghost, this battle with the Supervision Yuan is a mess, so naturally it is not to press the table, so as not to lose face.
When the Chu people died down, Qiao Wan and his party, escorted by Zhang Xi, had already arrived in Cangzhou safely, and this time the task was too easy for Zhang Xi.
He used to be a scout in the Northern Army who had distinguished himself in battle, because he was good at concealment, assassination and other skills, and was favored by the Supervision Yuan. Transferred from the Northern Army, he served as the captain of one of the teams in the Inspectorate's Action Brigade, which was his first mission. For him, this kind of action is really not a level different from when he was half-wise and half-brave with the Donghu people in Liaodong.
The convoy that escorted Qiao Wan went all the way directly to the barracks of Ye Feng's Second Division stationed in Cangzhou.
When the curtain of the carriage was lifted, Qiao Rongniang saw that the young officer who was heroic and extraordinary, and who made her think about it, was standing in front of the carriage with a smile on his face, and she was so surprised that she actually covered her face and cried.
"It's okay, Rong Niang. Now everything is fine, here, no one dares to embarrass you. Ye Feng said comfortingly, and bowed to Qiao Wan and Qiao Shi beside Rong Niang, "Mr. has worked hard all the way." ”
Zhang Xi was a little surprised to see the Supervision Yuan, and now Yi Bin, the deputy director of the National Security Bureau, was also standing beside Ye Feng, and couldn't help but flatten his mouth, his heart was just to pick up General Ye's sweetheart, how could Director Yi actually go to Cangzhou in person. Such a small job can also allow Director Yi to go out in person, of course, because of Ye Feng's identity.
Handing over Qiao Wan's family to Ye Feng, Zhang Xi can be regarded as having completed the task. walked up to Yi Bin and saluted Yi Bin, "Director Yi." Yi Bin is in charge of the Security Bureau's Operations Brigade, which is Zhang Xi's direct boss.
"This mission was well done." Yi Bin nodded. The corners of his mouth tugged, and he seemed to show a hint of a smile, Zhang Xi knew. This boss hasn't laughed for a long time because of the failure of the last Mao Wei incident, and it was after that incident that he was transferred to the Security Bureau, the Jiangdong County Action Team fought a battle, and the losses were huge, and even Yi Bin was seriously injured and barely got out. "Leave it to General Ye here, I have other things to ask you."
Yi Bin didn't pay attention to the affairs of Ye Feng and the Qiao family, and took Zhang Xi to a remote room in the barracks.
"How do you feel about this operation?" Yi Bin asked.
"It's easy." Zhang Xi shrugged.
"That's not what I'm asking, I want to know, how do you feel about returning to this area this time, how are the people there? How did the Chu government treat the local people? What is the current state of our policies in that region? A line of annoyance flashed across Yi Bin's face, although this Captain Zhang has outstanding ability, some of the military ruffian aura he has cultivated in the army is somewhat incompatible with the rigorous style of the Security Bureau. Before you acted, did your superiors tell you that you should pay attention to this information? ”
Hearing Yi Bin ask this, Zhang Xi's face became serious, "Director Yi, if you really want me to describe the situation in that area, I can only describe it in one word, miserable!" ”
"This way we sneaked past, what we saw and heard, miserable, the Chu people made a comeback, it was really a killing of people's heads, but all the locals who were close to our Han army at that time were basically beheaded, and the village chiefs elected by those villages themselves, basically there were no survivors, not to mention anything else, just take Qiaojia Village as an example, just kill several, and the land we gave them is now returned to those gentry landlords, but the rent has been doubled, saying that it is a punishment for them, Qiao Wanjia, If I hadn't given birth to a beautiful girl, I'm afraid that the head would have fallen to the ground a long time ago. Zhang Xi lowered his voice and said.
"Shut up, Mr. Qiao's name is also what you can scream, he used to be an ordinary person, will he still be in the future?" Yi Bin rebuked in a low voice.
Zhang Xibian flattened his mouth and did not make a sound.
"Okay, Zhang Xi, this time your mission has been done well, so the courtyard, oh no, it's the bureau, has also commended you, your military rank will be upgraded by one level, and from now on, you are a colonel officer in the National Security Agency Action Brigade. Congratulations, Colonel Zhang Xi. ”
"This will be able to move up a level?" Zhang Xi opened his mouth wide, when he was transferred from the Northern Army, the military rank system had not yet been implemented, but after the military rank regulations were announced in the army, he thought that he should be able to get the rank of lieutenant colonel, and he never expected that after performing such an easy task, the military rank was immediately raised by one level.
It's a real pickup. Zhang Xi said secretly in his heart.
"Don't be beautiful, how much responsibility you have to bear." Looking at Zhang Xi, who was overjoyed, Yi Bin said coldly: "You have also seen this action, in this area, although our Han Dynasty has not ruled for a long time, but various policies have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, what is the most afraid of comparison, those locals will compare the rule of the Chu people with our rule, you will know that we are countless times better than them, and now where are the Chu people going on a killing spree." Trying to use blood to scare the locals may have some effect, but it will also change the minds of the people there, and this is our chance, our security service's chance. ”
"What do we need to do?" Zhang Xi asked.
"It's very simple, it is impossible for our army to drive over now, because it is impossible for the country to start a war with the Chu people now, where has Minister Cao gotten a clear message, in recent years, the national policy of our Han is to go all out to deal with the Qin people. For the Chu people, it is mainly to appease and win over, and before the destruction of Qin, there will be no large-scale war with the Chu State, but this does not include us, do you understand? ”
"In other words, our security agency can do a lot of things."
"Yes, on the side of Daba Mountain, thousands of miles of land in Fang Yuan, it is enough for us to toss. Now there, we already have enough mass base, and the perverse actions of the Chu people have also brought the locals to the brink of collapse. Now, all it takes is a little spark, or a sky-high fire. Yi Bin said.
"You're saying where we're going to send some people to organize this kind of operation?" Zhang Xi's face was a little delicate.
"Yes, we can't send troops over. But it's none of our business for them to riot among themselves, right? Yi Bin laughed, "You are the commander-in-chief of this operation, and you will personally go to that area to be responsible for these operations." Spark. Can you set the prairie on fire, do you still remember Commander Bai's actions in the Qi State back then? ”
"This can't be compared, at that time, the official of Baisi had the strong support of the sailor, and the island was used as a logistics base, and the mainland was strongly supported in terms of both soldiers and weapons, I went over this time, I was afraid that I would not get any support!" Zhang Xi said with a bitter face.
"You're smart!" Yi Bin smiled: "That's true, if you are caught by the Chu people, we won't even admit the existence of you, you can only consider yourself unlucky." But if you succeed," Yi Bin patted Zhang Xi on the shoulder: "When you come back, this epaulette on your shoulder may be replaced by mine." ”
Looking at the golden plum blossom on Yi Bin's shoulder, Zhang Xi's eyes suddenly became hot, General!
The king once said that a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier, and now he is only one step away from a general, and if he makes another contribution, the title of general will be at his fingertips.
"I'll go!" He immediately took a stand.
"Okay, I knew you'd say yes." Yi Bin said with a smile.
"The military order is like a mountain, even if I don't want to agree!" Zhang Xi's ruffian demeanor immediately flares up again.
Yi Bin glared at him, "Take out a set of specific operation details tonight and hand them to me, after the two of us discuss, you can start the operation, Colonel Zhang, the same operation is not only in Chudi, but also in the Shu land of the Qin people, you were personally summoned by me to the Security Bureau, I don't want others to succeed in the end, but you fail." ”
"Director Yi, don't worry, how can I lose to others." Zhang Ximan doesn't care about the authenticity.
On their side, they began to plan to lead the local people to riot and revolt in Chudi, but on the other side, Qiao Wan's family was stunned, not because of anything else, but because of Ye Feng's identity.
Cangzhou County Guard Li Pu, Li Can's own family, and Meng Chong, the commander of the Second Front Army stationed in Cangzhou, all appeared in Ye Feng's military camp.
"Ye Feng, originally I also prepared a house for Mr. Qiao in Cangzhou, but now I can't keep Mr. Qiao's family to live in Cangzhou, Director Yi brought the princess's order from Jicheng, let us send someone to escort Mr. Qiao's family to Jicheng immediately." Meng Chong said to Ye Feng with a smile.
"This, sister, what are you doing here?" Ye Feng was very dissatisfied, he had just met his sweetheart, and before he could say a few words, he was going to take him away again.
"Hehehe!" Meng Chong laughed, "Eldest sister is like a mother, Ye Feng, the princess is also good for you, besides, the conditions in Jicheng are much better than those in Cangzhou, could it be that if Mr. Qiao goes to Jicheng, will the princess treat Mr. Qiao's family badly?" ”
"Princess?" Qiao Wan on the side was dumbfounded.
Li Pu smiled at Qiao Wan and said: "Mr. Qiao may not know that Master Ye's own sister, but the princess of our Han Dynasty, Master Ye is the only descendant brother of the princess, and Master Ye is also the king who grew up watching him grow up, and he is very precious. Please also ask Mr. Qiao not to be surprised, the princess wants to meet Miss Qiao first. ”
Qiao Wan swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, not long ago he was still a small flat-headed commoner, but in the blink of an eye, he was involved with the ruler of the most powerful country in the world, and he really didn't know whether it was a curse or a blessing, but people have arrived in this place, can they still help themselves now?
