Volume 1 The Battle of Luchuan Chapter 82 From Mengyang to Jiangtou City (Part II)

"In addition, there is one more thing to remind you," Jiang Yuyan said, "have you noticed those craftsmen who are in charge of transcribing information?" ”

Meng Liang nodded: "I've written down the appearance of these people." ”

"More than that, we must find out the details of these people," Jiang Yu confessed: "After this incident, they must not be allowed to survive." ”

"Are these people also on the assassination list?" Meng Liang was a little puzzled: "There are many people who have come into contact with this information, it should be more than just these craftsmen." ”

Jiang Yuyan explained: "The information they are transcribing now is different from the previous one, and all those who come into contact with this information must be disposed of, including the people at the contact point of the Barbarian Temple Village. ”

"Yes, Master." Meng Liang didn't ask any more questions, nodded in response.

For the current Heavenly Hall, assassination is already a relatively mature business. Relying on the birds, they were able to carry out long-range assassinations far beyond the normal assassination distances of this era, and the cost of cultivating a killer was much simpler than training a traditional killer with a bow or dagger, so the assassination business in the Heavenly Hall grew rapidly.

.......................

Before dusk, several craftsmen in charge of transcribing the information finally completed the copying and verification of the information.

On the other hand, Jiang Yugang also found a few members of the Observation Hall, and he did not establish any new organization for the lead, after all, this has a certain temporary, it is only a temporary organization created for the purpose of pre-war intelligence transmission, and from another point of view, he does not have enough ability to establish a sufficiently stable information transmission route on a mountain road of more than 100 kilometers.

Therefore, in the end, this lead is nothing more than a temporary body, and the members of it are the members of the Watch Hall of the Secret Academy, and the work of transmitting information on the lead line is naturally also the responsibility of the members of the Watch Hall.

"The five of you, go to Mansi Village from different routes, and every time you go to a connection point, you will replace the intelligence officer responsible for reporting the information to ensure the fastest communication speed, and all the access points equipped with horses will be equipped with horses for this intelligence transmission," Jiang Yu arranged, and took out a token of his own: "This is my token, this information transmission, regardless of the cost, as long as the information can be delivered as soon as possible." ”

"Understood!" The five guards of the Watch Hall replied in unison.

"In addition, this intelligence is also accompanied by an independent secret letter, this secret letter will be disclosed to the intelligence officer responsible for the final intelligence transmission at the last intelligence point in the Mansi Village, and no one else is allowed to view the secret letter, destroy the wax seal on it, once it happens, there will be no forgiveness." Jiang Yugang continued.

"Yes!" The secret soldiers performed a standard new military salute.

"Let's go!" Jiang Yu ordered.

··························

From Mengyang City to Mansi Village, the best way to take is to travel along Manggu Mountain, on the way to pass through the three major cottages of Manggu Mountain, Mangyun, Nansang and Manglu, and then cross the south end of Manggu Mountain, and come directly to the northwest of Mangsi Village.

This road passed relatively through more pedestrians, when the army went south to Jiangtou City, it also passed through this route, but did not cross the southern foot of Manggu Mountain, which was too complicated, but took the river valley at the southerly end, and entered from the relatively gentle terrain to the Mansi Village.

Purely from the length of the path, the better way to go may be from the south gate of Mengyang City, directly through the Mang Castle, directly through the Manggu Mountain, to the Mansi Village. The difficulty of this road is much more complicated, and it has to pass through many inaccessible mountains and forests, among which there are countless poisonous insects and beasts, and it is at night, so the security is even more worrying, and the access point established in some relatively safe places is the only existence that can be relied on in the process of intelligence transmission.

In fact, the lead line was also divided into these roads, heading towards the barbarian temple.

The relatively gentle terrain uses horses as a means of transportation, and the narrow mountain roads run quickly, and the precious horses of the past would not have been used in such dangerous terrain, but because of the special situation, they are advancing almost regardless of the cost.

A secret soldier of the Observation Hall is riding forward, his name is Daoxian, he is from Mangyun Village in Manggu Mountain, as one of the few people with riding experience, he also stands out in the selection of manpower for information transmission.

In the face of the rich reward given by Jiang Yuyan, he chose to undertake the task without hesitation, but when he really rode his horse in the Manggu Mountains at night, he felt the danger of this trip.

Jiang Yuyan made a promise to the formation of the Guardian Hall: Regardless of the cost, the carefully bred war horse has become a material that can be consumed at this time, and the selected intelligence transmission path is indeed treating the war horse as a consumable item.

Dao Xian is not responsible for raising horses on the lead line, so he doesn't have a lot of feelings for horses, but when he sees the tear-stained face of the guard hall soldier who came from the previous lead point, he can't help but be surprised.

He still remembers the conversation: "How did you come here by yourself?" What about war horses? Dao Xian asked the visitor.

"The war horse stepped into the pit, and I had no choice but to abandon it and come alone." The informant replied.

"Manggu Mountain at night is not peaceful, there are a lot of wild beast activities, is it too late for you to rescue it now?" Because of the work of establishing the lead, Dao Xian is also a member of the Manggu Castle who has a deep understanding of the jungles in Manggu Mountain.

The intelligence officer didn't return, but said with red eyes: "You go and deliver the letter, your war horse must also be used, and none of them can be delayed!" ”

Running on the rugged road, Dao Xiancai more fully realized the difficulty of traveling in the mountains and forests at night, he thought he was a very good rider, but now he also has no bottom on the safety of the war horse, every dozen or so run, there are pits, quagmires and even cliffs, if the war horse steps into the pit or quagmire, then he can also put down the war horse and run forward like the previous intelligence officer, but if he steps off the cliff, then even his own life is not guaranteed.

The mountain forest in front of him was an inky abstract silhouette in the dark night, so much so that he could almost see the distant road ahead, and could only gaze nervously at the ground for a short stretch of road in front of him, while maintaining the speed of his war horse.

Along with the intelligence and secret letter, Jiang Yugang's instructions were also sent. They have no right to see the information and secret letters, but the instructions must be heard clearly.

Those who arrive at the Barbarian Temple before the ugly time will receive a bounty for all the personnel at the contact points along the way, otherwise they will all be punished. And once you are delayed on the road, it will cause the speed of the entire lead line to slow down, and in the end, it will affect everyone.

This is a big relay at night in Mangu Mountain, and everyone involved in it has paid blood, sweat and even their lives.

After several months of training, the establishment of the organization management organization, the sense of honor of the members, and their trust in Jiang Yuyan, all emotions are intertwined here, which is not only an important task execution, but also a big test for the institution of the Secret Academy.

And at the end of this section of the path, just as he was about to reach the next point, Dao Xian finally relaxed, and the front hooves of the war horse stepped into a pile of grass, and under the shadow of the grass was not solid earth, but soft swamp.

Dao Xian was excited, cold sweat gushed out from his back, he immediately turned over and jumped off the horse, checked the safety of the information on his body, and ran in the direction of the connection point, the sharp thorns growing on the weeds on the ground, his pants were quickly cut, and the flesh was dripping, but his eyes were only ahead at the moment.

If you arrive early, you will be able to complete the mission, you will be rewarded, and you will be able to contribute to the great battle of Mang Castle, and the members of the Mystical Academy, driven by a strong sense of honor, will be the first to win their own victory in this mission.

····················

When Mu Zheng arrived at the pick-up point in front of the Mansi Village, the watchman of the Mansi Village just counted the time to the ugly time, he turned over and dismounted, came to the front of the guide in a few steps, performed a new-style military salute, and introduced himself: "Mu Zheng of the Observation Hall, I am here on the mission of the military master, please record the time when I came here." ”

"A new mission assigned by the military master?" The introduction of the Mansi Village did not know about this, and they were stationed here, and the task they had been shouldering was to inform the Mang Castle of the movements of the Ming army camp in the Mansi Village.

Mu Zheng nodded: "This matter is of great concern, it is the first priority at the moment, and the time limit has reached now." ”

"Time limit?" The barbarian temple asked.

"The military master agreed that this matter must be carried out before the ugly time, and now that it has just arrived at the ugly time, it is already the time limit." Mu Zheng asked, "Didn't you meet people from other directions?" ”

"Your Excellency is the only one here tonight." Answer from the lead.

"I don't know what went wrong with the other routes, but after all, the military master is the most important arrangement, and I can't wait for others to arrive before negotiating." Mu Zheng said: "Let's start the final mission now." ”

As he spoke, he took out the information and secret letter he carried, and handed the secret letter to the guide: "Please give this secret letter to the most powerful members here, and then implement the following plan according to the content of the secret letter." ”

The quote took the secret letter: "What about you?" ”

"The secret letter can only be viewed by the final task executor, others can view it, the military master has an order, and there is no mercy for killing." Mu Zheng introduced: "I am only responsible for the delivery work. ”

The receiver nodded: "Okay, I'll call someone." ”

··································

From the perspective of the environment, it should not have been abandoned for too long, probably with the development of the war from the Longchuan Manmo area to Jiangtou City, the residents of the original bamboo building chose to escape.

Compared with other access points, the number of people at the access point in the barbarian temple village is the largest, there are seven or eight people on duty here in shifts, and the elite personnel stationed here can be regarded as the watch hall.

He walked up to the second floor of the bamboo building and pushed open a room by the stairs, where several young people were sleeping soundly, and pushed one of them: "Secretary, secretary, wake up." ”

"Ah Yu, it's not time for the shift change." The man known as the "secretary" asked, rubbing his sleepy eyes.

"Secretary, there is an urgent mission from the military master." A guide named Ah Yu reminded in a low voice.

"What is important for the military master?" The man was startled and quickly came to his senses: "What's the matter?" ”

The young man who was woken up by Ayu was named Duo Zi'an, who was the person in charge of the connection point here, and also the secretary of a branch in the past, but now he kept his original position and came to the connection point near the Mansi Village to be the person in charge.

"This is a secret letter, the quote from the direction of Meng Yang said that only the person in charge of the final task can read it," Ah Yu handed the secret letter and information to Duo Zi'an: "The military master instructed that the most capable person should be selected to carry out the task, or the old rule, everyone will be rewarded for their merits and deeds, and they will be punished together for failure, so I came to find the secretary of you." ”

Duo Zi'an nodded: "Okay, I'll do this." ”
