Volume 1 The Battle of Luchuan Chapter 69 Intelligence Work Before the War (I)

A thin, dusty man approached from a distance, taking a few steps towards the door of the Secret Academy.

Dressed in the most common clothes of the local people in Luchuan, this man looked no different from an ordinary Orion, but the mask with a strange black and white pattern on his face indicated his special identity as a member of the Secret Academy.

In the current Mang Castle, the newly built Secret Institute is regarded as the legitimate successor of the former Hundred Households Henchmen Intelligence Department, and has the name of "Secret Army".

And this secret soldier was stopped by the secret institute in front of the door: "Enter the headquarters, hand in the certificate first." ”

The man was stunned for a moment, and then reflected. He wiped his sweat a little embarrassed, and found a black jade from his body, the corners of the stone had polished marks, although there was no regular shape, but at least it was smooth.

One side of the jade is flat, with a circle depicted on it, and a smiling face on it. If these people of the Ming Dynasty browsed the Internet in later generations, they should recognize that this is something called "emoji".

But now, this is the identity certificate of the secret academy designed and determined by Jiang Yugang, Zhang Dake's creation institute rushed to make it overnight, and after the pieces were built under the supervision of a special person, the drawings were destroyed.

A smiling round face now represents the identity of the most mysterious secret army in Mang Castle.

"Please come in, the warlord is inside." The guide raised the bamboo cane used to stop the comer, this person's eyes flickered slightly, the bamboo cane is actually a cleverly made scabbard, under the scabbard, the cold light is cold.

He couldn't help but shake his head, he heard that the military master had found a few ruthless characters who were good at killing, and this lead must be one of them.

Crossing the threshold, there is a long road, on both sides of the road are two long stone platforms, and above the stone platform is a stone statue.

These stone statues were collected from various cottages in Manggu Mountain, and in order to exchange these stone statues from the villagers, Jiang Yugang paid a lot of price, but no matter how big the price was, it was worth it.

Originally, the villagers worshipped these stone statues for a good life, but Jiang Yugang directly exchanged the realistic good life for these distant prayers to weaken their original spiritual support.

Mang Castle has been built, and this is something that all the inhabitants of Mang Castle should trust.

And the stone statues were thrown directly, firstly, it was a waste, and secondly, if the news of throwing away the stone statues spread, it would not be a good thing, so they were simply moved to the most remote secret temple as decorations.

Although these stone statues are not from the same place, they are similar in style, and after sorting them out, they found a more imposing order and lined them up, which also had a great visual impact, and Jiang Yuyan simply used this as an ornament for the entrance of the Secret Academy.

There is actually a secret compartment behind this entrance corridor, and if someone wants to invade, they can kill people directly from the compartment in the process of entering the secret house.

Similar ingenious designs are numerous in the various buildings of Mang Castle, and although no secret measures can be taken from the craftsmen for the sake of the progress of construction, but in general, the number of people who know each secret design is still limited, and with the strict control of the drawings, there is no need to worry too much about leaking secrets.

It is really the limit of the existing conditions, and this is still with a number of construction experts such as Dao Yunyue, Jiang Yugang is also satisfied.

Passing through the corridor, there is a small front hall, which is designed in the way of a modern reception hall according to Jiang Yugang's design ideas, but it is much smaller.

Several Shingoku recruits work here, including young women. This is a big change made by Jiang Yugang, officially introducing women to participate in work on a large scale.

Except that there are no women in the army at present, after all, neither the management of organization and discipline, nor the combat characteristics of the 15th century, which has not yet been separated from cold weapons, are not suitable for women to join.

But all other departments began to accept women to work, and the shortage was quickly resolved.

Women had done well and were more attentive in literacy activities to learn about new cultures, and many documents were now managed by women.

"Visitor registration." A usher, who greeted the visitor with something he didn't know he was familiar with. The word "registration" took a lot of effort for her, who was almost completely blind before, to master.

If it weren't for the fact that she could earn more money after becoming a secret soldier to support her father, who was physically disabled and unable to work, she probably wouldn't have been able to persevere in the rigorous training.

However, if Jiang Yuyan can know that this guide thinks that the literacy education of three hours a day is "strict", he must be extremely helpless.

If it weren't for the fact that he grew up in school because of family reasons since he was a child, he might not have so much patience and methods to complete the literacy of these older illiterates.

The visitor nodded and registered: "Shouguan Hall, Secretary of the Indoji Branch, Duoyu." ”

"Number." The female guide flipped through the documents in her hand and quickly found him, after all, there are not many people in the secret academy now.

“0-3-15。” Tatama replied.

Nowadays, Arabic numerals are popularized as a basic knowledge in Mang Castle, from the daily distribution of food to the monthly salary, which is closely related to life and is quickly accepted by the inhabitants, after all, it is not difficult in itself.

Hearing Tatama's answer, the guide nodded. In order to facilitate management, Jiang Yufu assigned numbers to all the members of the participating institutions and the soldiers who joined the army.

The design rules for numbering are also very simple, the first number represents the head office, such as the number of the Secret Institute is "0", and the number of the army is "1".

The second number represents the branches under the head office, and in the Secret Academy, the number of the Divine Palace Hall is "1", the Sacred Lower Hall is "2", the Watchful Hall is "3", and the Heavenly Hall is "4".

The last number is the chronological order in which the branch was added, such as this Tatama being the fifteenth member of the Watch Hall to join. Later, if a member quits or dies, his number is permanently destroyed and can no longer be used.

If there is an adjustment in the organization in the future, Jiang Yugang has already thought about the method of adjusting the number, just add or subtract a few numbered numbers in the middle.

After the female guide is checked, the third process is carried out: "Request? ”

"Urgent information, I need to see the military master." Tatama Road.

This is also one of the regulations set by Jiang Yu, "emergency information" is one of the opportunities for low-level members to have the opportunity to meet him, but when there are too many people, they need to queue up according to rank and serial number, but if it is confirmed that the information is false, they will face severe punishment without a cap.

"No one now, I'll take you there." The female guide stood up and instructed her colleagues beside her: "There is urgent information, I will take him to see the military master." ”

The colleague nodded, and then sat down on the bench at the door of the antechamber, like a young man who was napping and resting, stood up, looking no more than twenty years old, and should also be a secret army.

The female guide took out a strip of black cloth from the drawer on her seat, handed it to the young man, and introduced to Duoyu: "To meet the military master, you need to be blindfolded, and this colleague from the Heavenly Workers Department will supervise it. ”

Duoyu looked at the black cloth strip curiously, he had already heard that the military master had done this in the secret institute, and the real experience was the first time, while reaching out to put on the cloth strip and covering his eyes, he couldn't help but muttered and complained: "I have seen the military master a few times, and I followed him at that time, and fought the Luchuan army together in Nansang Village, and now it is so mysterious?" It's so troublesome to want to see each other. ”

The young man checked that Tayu's eyes were properly covered, and at the same time took out another longer strip of cloth and tied Tayu's hands firmly.

While Tayu's hands were tied, his body stiffened, and the young man said when he saw this: "If you are outside the Secret Academy, you will naturally not have such trouble when you see the military master, but since you are now a member of the Secret Academy, you must abide by the rules of the Secret Academy." ”

"We are directly under the command of the military master, and we are superior in everything in the Mang Castle, so we have to pay something." The young man patted Tatama on the shoulder, "Let's go."

Duoyu responded, followed the young man's pull and walked forward slowly, and said a little unconvinced: "I can't see that you are young and understand so many truths." ”

"In the Secret Academy, it's better to know more, look at your appearance, you haven't entered the Elite Academy and participated in the study?" The young man asked.

Tatama replied, "No, I was just selected from the hunting team to join the Academy last month. ”

"This time, if your emergency information is important, you may be rewarded and given priority to enter the Elite Academy," the young man taught, "Learn more things and rules, and stay in this secret academy, and the benefits will not be exhausted in the future." ”

"Compared to the hunting team, it is indeed much easier, and the treatment is much better, but it is also more dangerous." Duoyu sighed lightly: "The military lord was ordered to guard Manggu Mountain, why did he send someone to such a large area as Mengyang City to investigate the situation?" ”

The young man laughed and said, "Don't you understand this?" At present, we have thousands of people in Mang Castle, refining weapons and building fortresses, which are to contribute to the war, and when the time comes, the military master will be awarded a great official, plus this Mang Castle, we will have a foothold in this Luchuan. ”

"Contribute to the Great War?" The corner of Duoyu's eyes jumped: "Do you know how many people there are in the Luchuan Army?" ”

The young man immediately refused: "Don't tell me, I don't want to violate the rules of the hospital, and information must not be spread at will." ”

Duoyu also nodded again and again, but still couldn't help but say: "Can we people in Manggu Castle really exert much strength in the big battle?" Whether it is the craftsmen of the various academies, or you and I are not soldiers, those people who can really fight the war, how much role can they play? ”

"You just haven't seen the skills of the craftsmen of the Alchemy Academy, the most trusted person of the military lord in this Mang Castle, in addition to the cardinal's envoy Ah Tian, is the Alchemy Academy's envoy Lu Chong, the musket he made, can kill the enemy within a hundred steps, and a bullet can be fired in a snap of the fingers, using this firearm, we can completely use one as ten." The young man introduced.

"In this way, it seems that our firearms are indeed stronger than other firearms I have seen." Duoyu listened to the man's story, and also remembered the night when he resisted the Luchuan army in Nansang Village.

However, at that time, because I was too afraid, most of what remained in my memory was the picture of my own escape under the fire and the Luchuan army that did not escape being swallowed by the flames, and I can't remember the shooting scene of the Ming army's firearms under Jiang Yu's command very clearly.

"Therefore, if you work hard in the Secret Academy, you will have a lot to do in the future, and you will never have to live hunting in the mountains and forests again." The young man said with emotion.

Duoyu couldn't help but think of the scene when the army of Mang Castle defeated the Luchuan army in the future, and agreed: "That's right. ”

"Alright, here we go."

After passing through the two doors in Tatama's senses, the voice of the female lead sounded. She followed the two all the way, silently silent, as if she was specifically responsible for surveillance. Thinking of this, Duoyu was impressed by Jiang Yu's thoughtfulness.
