Volume 1 The Battle of Luchuan Chapter 91 The First Sound of Fire in Bilu Village (Medium)
For the disposal of the Luchuan army, it is to be diverted after interrogation, and those who have a deep hatred will be naturally executed, but those who are clearly investigated will be taken for their own use. Jiang Yugang placed them together and concentrated on labor, but now the manpower of Mang Castle is too limited, and it is not possible to carry out subsequent identification and normalization of these people.
As a member of the Secret Academy, Duo Zi'an is most familiar with the interrogation process of the Secret Academy, and he has the impression that it is unbearable torture, and the interrogators are all unable to survive or die, and when he heard that the guards on the side were going to interrogate him, his face immediately changed greatly, and he begged for mercy loudly: "My lord! I... I'm wronged! ”
"Wrong?" Wang Ying raised her face, and her cold gaze hid an almost unbearable anger: "What is your intention to send false information to the camp with the intention of misleading the arrangement of tens of thousands of troops!" ”
At this time, Wang Ying finally landed with a stone in his heart, but at the same time, there was no room for tolerance for Duo Zi'an, after all, it was this guy who pretended to be a messenger of Meng Yangcheng seriously, and deceived himself with a false message, causing himself to be in a mess, and embarrassed in front of his father and subordinates.
"I also follow orders, and military orders cannot be violated!" Duo Zi'an remembered the truth that Jiang Yugang often mentioned, and at this time, it could be used to exonerate himself.
"Obey orders?" Wang Ying was stunned for a moment, and then thought about interrogating from Duo Zi'an to obtain Bai Qianfan's arrangement, although Bai Qianfan was in the same position as him, there was still no comparison in status.
It seems that Bai Qianfan commanded 10,000 people and stationed in Mengyang City, which seems to be more important, but all the senior generals know that Mengyang City, which is located between the Indoji Great Lake and the north of the Ava Kingdom, is an extremely dangerous place of four wars, and even if Bai Qianfan can defend Mengyang City, he may not be able to survive in that dangerous environment.
Now such an officer with a low status because he has no relationship has such a big courage to design to deceive himself and his father, no matter what, he can't let it go.
"Tell me who told you to do this!" Wang Ying took the opportunity to quickly interrogate, he didn't expect Duo Zi'an's bones to be so soft, and he actually had to confess the matter at once.
In fact, not only did Wang Ying not expect that if Jiang Yu was here and saw this scene with his own eyes, he would not have thought that the members of the Secret Academy would not have any basic insistence, and before the other party began to interrogate, he would confess all of them in order to avoid the disaster.
In fact, this is also related to the fact that there are not many secrets within the Mang Castle itself, and what really matters to the Mang Castle is the drawings mastered by several industrial departments: Alchemy, Creation, Tiangong and Mending Heaven, as well as the Chinese Pinyin textbooks and common simplified Chinese characters owned by the Xuanjing Academy.
These things are the biggest secrets inside the Mang Ancient Castle, and everyone who holds these contents must make strict records, and before they get it, they are the result of repeatedly emphasizing or even intimidating the leak - death, and some brave or careless people are used to kill chickens and monkeys, plus the relatively closed environment in the area of Manggu Mountain, so the secrecy is not bad.
And these members of the Secret Academy, although they are members of the intelligence department, usually have some appearances, but they have not received much training in counter-interrogation, and the Secret Institute itself lacks a counter-interrogation system, after all, except for the technology that Jiang Yugang has, there is really nothing secret in the Mang Castle.
And it also created the current situation, Duo Zi'an was frightened by Wang Ying, and immediately wanted to tell everything he knew.
"Yes... It's the military master! Trying to squeeze a shred of composure out of his fear, he used all his strength to name the person he thought had the most to do with the transmission of information.
Jiang Yugang's influence on Mang Castle is too great, and the image of the military lord has left deep traces in the hearts of almost everyone who lives in thousands of residents, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the master of Mang Castle, and the best answer that Duo Zi'an can think of is also Jiang Yugang.
But with Duo Zi'an's answer, the atmosphere at the scene fell into a trace of embarrassment. At this time, Wang Ji had already left the military tent and went out, and his other guards went to inform the other officers in the barbarian temple camp under his orders, preparing to select and transfer men, and began to leave.
Remaining in the military tent were Wang Ying and several of his guards. Wang Ying didn't understand what Duo Zi'an was saying for a while, was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "You say, who asked you to send false information?" ”
"Yes—the Lord." At this time, Duo Zi'an's mentality had eased a little from the initial panic, and when he heard Wang Ying repeat the question, he thought that it was the first time he didn't make it clear, so he hurriedly tried to make the words as clear as possible, and confessed the name of the "military master".
At this time, Wang Ying was completely puzzled, "military master" This is a title he has never heard of, the Ming Dynasty has a set of official positions, and the wartime officers have a set of command positions, but no matter which official position system, there is no such thing as "military master".
"The military master, the military master." Wang Ying repeated two sentences in her mouth, and she also sorted out a little bit of confusion: "This military master, is it possible that it means 'the master of an army'?" It's really a big breath, my father is dignified and uncle, but it's just the responsibility of supervising the army, who has the courage to call himself the 'military master'? ”
Could it be Bai Qianfan? I can't see that this person is far away from the big camp and has been stationed alone in Mengyang City for several months, and he actually has so many thoughts that shouldn't appear, and it is no wonder that he dares to send false information in an attempt to manipulate the army, and even uses the title of "military master".
What Wang Ying never imagined was that this was actually another name for a small hundred households in Bai Qianfan's subordinates in the defense area under his jurisdiction, but he couldn't imagine that this small hundred households actually had thousands of manpower and thousands of soldiers under his command.
"Does this 'military master' refer to Meng Yang's garrison Bai Qianfan?" Wang Ying asked slowly, and the cooperation of Duo Zi'an in answering questions also made him a little less impatient.
“··· Mengyang garrison··· Bai Qianfan? Duo Zi'an's eyes showed a look of confusion, since he joined the Secret Academy, he had never been on duty in the area of Mengyang City, and he knew nothing about the defenders of Mengyang City.
At this time, Jiang Yugang's plan for intelligence isolation in the Secret Institute had an unexpected effect: the so-called intelligence isolation was to strictly control the circulation of intelligence within the Academy, and all information could only be transmitted to members with authority and need, and could not be disseminated at will.
The transmission of information has to be carried out according to a set of cumbersome processes, and even the information of Jiang Yugang's office can only be known to individual members of the Divine Palace Hall and the Heavenly Hall who are in charge of supervision, and it will take a lot of effort for others to enter Jiang Yugang's office in the Secret Academy and meet Jiang Yugang directly.
Jiang Yuyan designed this cumbersome process in order to ensure the progress of intelligence control work, adding several insurances to the original intelligence control work, and at the same time, when supervising, directly supervising this cumbersome process, that is, the multi-channel insurance of intelligence control, once any of the links are not properly implemented, they will be investigated immediately, and different degrees of punishment will be imposed according to the severity of the mistake, and the whistleblower will receive a more generous reward.
This method was slowly implemented, and almost no one dared to challenge the information transmission process and dare to make mistakes in it, and the secret academy also achieved relatively strict intelligence control, no one dared to exchange information at will, and the transmission of information was strictly controlled within a set range.
For example, a member of the Secret Academy, like Duo Zi'an, who was mainly active in the southern part of Manggu Mountain, knew almost nothing about Meng Yangcheng's information, because under the restrictions of the Secret Academy's rules, he might not even know as much irrelevant information as ordinary Manggu Castle villagers heard.
These people who seem to have the most information in the castle are actually the other kind of people who are the most informative in the other sense, and only know the information within their own scope of work, and the information outside the scope of their work is completely closed to them.
Duo Zi'an is such a typical example, he has never heard of the garrison arrangement of Meng Yangcheng, does not know the official position of the Meng Yang garrison, and has never heard of Bai Qianfan's name.
"Are you playing dumb on me? It's not Bai Qianfan, who else commanded you to send false information? Wang Ying saw Duo Zi'an's confused look, and she couldn't see the flaws in it, and when she secretly scolded this person for pretending to be good, anger surged up again.
"Yes... Warlord. Duo Zi'an vaguely felt that this answer might make Wang Ying angry, but his mind was almost blank under Wang Ying's constant questioning, and only the most impressive name was "military master".
"I don't know who this military master you are talking about, is the 'military master' Bai Qianfan or not?" Wang Ying asked angrily.
"The Warlord... It's not..." A name suddenly flashed in Duo Zi'an's mind, but he couldn't say it for a while. It was a name too complicated for him, who had barely learned a few hundred commonly used simplified characters, and his mouth was already open, but he couldn't figure out how to pronounce it.
The only thing Duo Zi'an knew was that the name was not "Bai Qianfan", he recognized these three words.
"Not Bai Qianfan? Then where did the Bai Qianfan token in your hand come from? Wang Ying was already laughing angrily, he originally thought that this person was a slump who would soften after being intimidated, but he didn't expect that he was actually a slippery character who could pretend to be stupid at such a time to fool himself: "Now the time is urgent, you confess honestly, I will keep you in the barracks, and I will deal with it after the matter is resolved." ”
When Duo Zi'an heard that Wang Ying was still unwilling to let him go, he immediately became anxious, but he didn't know what answer Wang Ying needed, confession would be dealt with, and what disaster would come if he didn't confess? The "military master" is not Bai Qianfan, this is clear to him, and if he confesses that the military master is Bai Qianfan, he will be burdened with another crime, and at the same time, he will not be released, and he will still be left in the army to wait for processing.
Without telling Wang Ying the specific identity of the "military master", seeing that it was not possible, Duo Zi'an grew his mouth anxiously, and tried to say the name in his mind, that is, he had not joined the secret academy, or an ordinary farmer in Nansang Village, and when he followed the old man in the village to the road to Mang Castle, the old man told him his name, which was the name of the "military master".
Later, when he was recognizing, he also paid attention to those few complicated words, which he could say, he thought. While thinking about it, Duo Zi'an felt a chill on his body, and the name was almost blurted out in a flash of inspiration, but the sudden sharp pain and the weakness of his whole body made him look down in shock, and saw the blood gushing out of his neck, and he just fell.
"Okay, you kid, you don't think that you can go back with dignity after committing the big crime of passing on false information," Wang Ying's patience was completely exhausted: "I don't have time to talk to you much, since you are making fun of me, you are looking for your own death." ”
He cut Duo Zi'an's throat with a very fast knife, coldly watched Duo Zi'an fall under his knife, then put away the knife and strode away towards the outside of the military tent.
