Chapter 36 (I) The Opposite Side of the Sea
Half an hour after Tang Shuxing boarded the freighter and left, a camouflaged Shangdu torpedo frigate appeared next to Ji Kefeng's small boat, and the frigate lowered the rope ladder to pick Ji Kefeng onto the ship, while Gu Huaiyi was already waiting on the deck, but he turned his back to Ji Kefeng, looking in the direction where the freighter left, with a calm face.
"That's it, I'll send him on board myself." Ji Kefeng slowly walked behind Gu Huaiyi and reported in a low voice. When he speaks, he looks exactly like a normal soldier.
"I'm worried about you, I'm worried that you'll really betray Shangdu, especially the moment you shake off the belt, my heart lifts." Gu Huaiyi said coldly, but a smile appeared on his face the moment he turned to look at Ji Kefeng, and at the same time grabbed Ji Kefeng's arms on both sides and said, "Unexpectedly, you have also gained his trust." ”
Ji Kefeng nodded: "However, he is on the freighter now, and there are no people on the freighter, and soon we will lose his news, and there is no backup plan?" ”
Gu Huaiyi smiled: "It's okay, just release the fish back into the sea, the fish is always just in the sea, and it won't fly to outer space, you have worked hard, you should have a good rest." ”
Ji Kefeng nodded, knowing that Gu Huaiyi couldn't trust him, and he obviously had a backup plan, but he refused to say it, so he turned around and followed the soldier back to the cabin and lived in the captain's room. This ship and the soldiers on board are all Gu Huaiyi's, they are all his henchmen, in the eyes of this group of soldiers, Ji Kefeng is not a fart, but on the surface, everyone respects him and gives him enough face.
Ji Kefeng sat in the captain's room and closed the door. Sitting there in a daze, but suddenly laughing.
On the deck, Gu Huaiyi was also standing there, not letting the frigate chase the freighter, but on the contrary, he suddenly laughed.
Tian Longting, who had been standing under the radar not far away and was smoking, stepped forward at this time and asked, "My lord, is Ji Kefeng ridiculous?" ”
"No, he's not laughable." Gu Huaiyi shook his head, "After all, they are small, and he really wanted to release Tang Shu at that time." But a plan is always a plan. He didn't know what my next plan was. ”
Tian Longting just smoked and didn't ask, he knew very well that as a subordinate, Gu Huaiyi, who should know, would sue him sooner or later.
"I was in my original plan. It is also to force Tang Shuxing to leave. If I go a day late. Reinhardt may start to involve Tang Shuxing in the study of the holy relics, and it will be too late to do anything then, so. I can only expose them immediately and force them to leave. Gu Huaiyi calmly looked at the sea and said calmly.
"My lord, this is killing two birds with one stone, one is to sit in this position, and the other is to delay the plan to recast the Eye of Rulai." Tian Longting felt that it was still a little awkward to call Gu Huaiyi "adult", he was more accustomed to the title of "young master", "However, I'm worried that the old fox Reinhardt will notice this. ”
"No, it's not that he would have noticed, I'm sure he did." Gu Huaiyi said lightly.
"Huh?" Tian Longting was surprised, "He knows!?" ”
"Yes, he must have other plans, after all, the natural mutant is only Tang Shuxing, if Tang Shuxing doesn't participate in his research plan, he has no way, he can't control Tang Shuxing's thoughts." Gu Huaiyi explained.
Tian Longting asked again: "But why do you want to sit in this position?" ”
"There are two reasons, first, the two of them have indeed betrayed him, and both of them have strong influence in Shang, and their own strength is also very strong, it is a scourge to keep them, it is difficult to deal with, it is best to get rid of them or restrain them with my hand; Second, don't forget, in addition to me, Ji Kefeng is also a secret envoy, and he can restrain me. Gu Huaiyi smiled.
"I don't understand." Tian Longting was puzzled, "Now it's you who is in power, not him, how can Ji Kefeng restrain you?" ”
"When you forget that when you announced the order, you only said that I was the new secret envoy, and did not say the scope of my actual responsibility. But when introducing Ji Kefeng, it was made clear that he is still the controller of the new adaptation zone, and the scope of the new adaptation zone has been expanded, and now it has expanded to the whole of Southeast Asia, not the former Bangkok area, so in fact, his command is greater than mine. Gu Huaiyi walked to the railing and looked at the sea, "And all aspects of Shangdu require the signature of the two of us, not that I alone have the final say, in the long run, I am afraid that the little strength under my command will not be able to become a climate." ”
Tian Longting nodded: "I understand, so my lord asked me to buy people's hearts and gather people from other warlords who are willing to submit to my lord." ”
"Yes." Gu Huaiyi nodded, "I put Tang Shuxing to divert Reinhardt's attention, he is now going all out to study the holy relics, and at the same time he is trying his best to persuade Tang Shuxing to help him, on the surface, he handed over the military power of the front line to me, but in fact, he is also testing me to see what I will do, so I must completely defeat the Asian and European forces in a short period of time and win some of his trust, and the next thing will be easy to do." By the way, and how about I asked you to figure out how to form our own intelligence department? ”
Tian Longting's face was embarrassed: "It's very troublesome, although there are a lot of intelligence talents, but these people are all old ghosts and old foxes, on the surface, they are all respectful and extremely loyal, but I can bet that among the 100 people, less than 1 person is willing to completely surrender to us, and the rest have their own plans, just want to keep safe first, so Lin Suotu and I agree that we still choose from our own people." ”
"Nope." Gu Huaiyi turned to look at Tian Longting, "Absolutely not." You also know how these people in the Zheng family army are, 20% are completely blind, 30% are semi-literate, and the rest of the people are very few highly educated, and the number can be counted, and it is absolutely impossible for people who are not well educated to be competent in intelligence work in this era, all kinds of cryptographic communication methods are enough to give them a headache, and there are modern operations, you can't let them rely on carrier pigeons, right? ”
"That ......" Tian Longting didn't know what to do, in the past, their operation of intelligence was mainly based on buying and selling, and they did not have their own set of systematic intelligence networks.
"I'm going to choose college students, but the premise is that they must recognize the concept of Shangdu." Gu Huaiyi said.
"I don't understand, aren't the chosen ones supposed to be loyal to us?" After Tian Longting finished speaking, he looked at Gu Huaiyi's smile and suddenly realized, "I understand." This is the only way to avoid flaws. ”
"Yes. They are loyal to Shangdu, and the intelligence agency we set up is also for Shangdu, but how is the actual operation, where are they qualified to know? After it was established, it was still one of my political achievements. Gu Huaiyi clung to the railing and said, "Allegiance is still fake, doing things for us is true, no matter what happens, there are still Shang supporting us, it is better to have a backer than nothing." ”
"It's taken too long." Tian Longting shook his head and said, "At least five or six years, at most more than ten years." ”
"It's not long, do you think Shang will fall? No! It is the general trend that Shangdu will remain stable, and when the war is over and there are no more borders, more and more people will approve of this policy. Gu Huaiyi smiled, "If there is still discrimination between races, then we will use high-pressure policies to force them to eliminate this discrimination, at least this can win the popularity of the majority of people, and that is enough." You see today's new Southeast Asia, the new adaptation zone is like this, the crime rate has dropped to an all-time low, because the policy I implement is to catch a thief, if it is a first-time offender, just to educate, take him to visit the execution ground for execution, if it is not a first-time offender, and the circumstances are serious, he will be arrested and killed. ”
Tian Longting just smiled and did not express his opinion, although he knew that this method would be effective in a short period of time, but it would still be chaotic in the long run, after all, Shangdu's current systematic constitution and corresponding other laws have not really been released, and they are being negotiated.
"Alright, let's go back to the docks, tonight's events are kept secret." Gu Huaiyi turned around and got out of the cabin, paused again, and said, "If you find that someone will leak secrets, you will stop it immediately, and you don't need to report it to me." ”
Tian Longting nodded, turned to look in the direction where the freighter had left, sighed and lit a cigarette.
That night, Ji Kefeng was laughing, Gu Huaiyi was laughing, only Tang Shuxing couldn't laugh. Because he has been changing the hiding place on the freighter, because on this ship of Shangdu, there is a corpse agent on the ship, and he doesn't know who it is, but this kind of person will not be merciful and reasonable, once he is found, he will immediately report to the underground Shangdu, and his whereabouts will be completely exposed.
In the following month, he kept hiding, and lost nearly 20 pounds, and he also shaved his hair and became bald, looking like two people before. A month later, the freighter docked at a port in Los Angeles, where he originally planned to disembark, but when he heard that the ship's final destination was to New York Harbor, he was overjoyed because his original destination was to New York.
The ship docked in Los Angeles for renovation, and after another half a month, the freighter finally docked in New York Harbor. When he went out from the port to go to the city, he was surprised to find the police of the Shandu Control Bureau all over the street, and he was shocked at that moment, but then after seeing the appearance of those people clearly, he realized that these American policemen had only uniformed with the control bureau uniform, and were equipped with more flexible automatic weapons than before, so it seemed that the United States was not peaceful at all.
On the way to the city, he kept seeing the police searching passers-by, arresting anyone who was suspicious, and posting notices and electronic bulletin boards about "no illegal firearms" everywhere. From the mouths of passers-by, he learned that the United States is now engaged in the largest war of illegal gun eradication, and it is not illegal for you to have a qualified gun license to carry a firearm, but if you do not carry a gun, anyone has the right to shoot them on the spot if they are dissuaded and do not listen.
Americans all believe that now only illegal guns are banned, and the next step is estimated to be a complete ban on guns, although many people oppose it, but there is nothing to be done, after all, the United States only retains some sovereignty now, and the rest of the power is in the hands of Shangdu, because the control of the army is in the hands of Shangdu, and it is the spiritual control of the power.
