The 803 Incident
"You're from the Ministry of Intelligence? Isn't it a military commander, or is it a secret bureau? Firefox asked, looking at a major officer suspiciously.
The other party actually claimed to be the intelligence department of the Republican Army. looked at the other party's straight military uniform, as well as the military's carriage. Officers of the special field were in horse-drawn carriages. After all, a large number of horses were handed over first to the combat units of the Republican Army. The carriage was naturally chosen by those officers in the rear. The soldier is also very straight. The other party also has documents.
“?” The major was at a loss. He didn't know what the other party was asking. What a military command, a secret bureau.
"Oh. I mean, isn't your intelligence department trying to be hidden? You're the intelligence service. Firefox said.
"We're just working on a normal schedule. You can be a supernumerary, but you have to keep it secret, and we need your cooperation to do some analysis, you know, we don't know much about some of the aspects. And you have a strong peculiarity in this regard, so, we hope that you can cooperate with us. The Major said. The IRA needs Firefox to cooperate with them to analyze some intelligence and then come up with some assessment reports. In this way, it is more convincing. After all, Firefox has its own file in the Republican Army. Analytical skills for the other party. The intelligence services believe that there is no comparison. Intelligence gathering is one thing. But analysis is another matter. If you collect it correctly and analyze it wrong, it will cause a lot of trouble. So, the IRA in general does not want such a thing to happen. After all, it would be extremely bad for them for something like this to happen.
So, Firefox's special identity, as well as experience. Be the best fit for them.
"This, is there something special about the supernumerary personnel?" Firefox asked.
"This. I don't know, but we'll pay you normally. The Major said.
Firefox, on the other hand, is thinking about the gains and losses of this identity. I've heard that the officers of the IRA are easy to get. But being an official is too tiring. The benefits can certainly be gained. But it takes some ingenuity. Obviously not fit to do that. It's not bad to be a councillor, but it's also very scheming. I don't want to do it myself. Without the protection of a big official, this business is very difficult to do. If you follow that formula, you still need to sponsor some people to run for parliament, which is also a political investment. But after all, the results are still relatively slow, and who knows what they will do. And, most importantly, it's safe. There's a lot to do. If you have an intelligence hat, maybe a lot of things can still be done relatively well.
Although he is a supernumerary, Firefox knows very well that it is because of non-staff personnel that things are easy to do. There is a lot of freedom, and the constraints are not very big. It's a great deal.
Come to think of it. Firefox quickly agreed, joke, such a thing, why didn't she agree. If you don't agree, you're a fool. Because doing business requires a certain official background.
In this way, Firefox joined the supernumerary staff of the IRA intelligence service.
At this time, Luoyang has long become a war-affected area.
Annoyed Yuan Shao Cao Cao and others led the army to directly attack the palace, in addition, they believed that He Jin's brother, He Mei, was also involved, after all, after getting rid of the general He Jin, the best person to control power was He Mei. Yuan Shao and others, who were angry, led an army to attack He Mei. For a time, Luoyang City was in chaos.
Take advantage of this mess. Zhang Rang and others held hostage. The emperor and King Chen Liuwang fled from Luoyang.
Zhang Rang also lost his claim for a while. He didn't know where to go.
At this time, the pursuers chased loudly. Under such circumstances, Zhang Rang, who was in a hurry, committed suicide by throwing himself into the river. He himself knows that a good hand makes him a bad hand. He ended his life like this, if it fell into the hands of others. Maybe your life can't be guaranteed.
Zhang Rang seems to be just a small episode. History still follows his course.
Dong Zhuo, who led his army into Beijing, met the emperor and King Chen Liu. Maybe it's providence, or maybe it's arranged.
Liu Wei, who has never seen the world, can't deal with such a situation at all. On the contrary, Chen Liuwang has some appearance. History is back on its own track.
But the effects of the mutiny are spreading. No one knows what kind of changes will happen to everyone's fate.
"These firearms, it's a pity, if Zhang Rang and the others resist for a while, maybe we will be extremely passive." Cao Cao also got certain benefits afterwards, and his official position may rise a little. But the damned Dong Zhuo entered the capital. Ding Yuanbu also failed to arrive in time.
Cao Cao knew to strengthen his own army. Because he seized more than 700 flintlock firearms from the palace, this kind of firearm can be regarded as compensating Cao Cao's military expenses.
After all, without Cao Cao's firearms troops suppressing, it was not easy for the sappers to blow up the city gate and break into the palace.
"These firearms, for us, are still the best. Now I'll be able to expand my armament. Xi Zhicai said.
"I look at Dong Zhuo's person, the wolf's ambition, I'm afraid things have changed." Xi Zhicai said worriedly.
There is no one in charge of the imperial court, and it is really in a state of leaderlessness, and the general He Jin was cut off by Zhang Rang and others, and He Mei was also killed. All of a sudden, all the things are not going to be easy.
Cao Cao was also very worried. Now Dong Zhuo is very powerful in leading troops. Because they are all equipped with firearms, on the surface, Dong Zhuojun only has 6,000 people, but in fact, there are as many as 16,000 people. This is much more than Dong Zhuo's troops in history, and this is supported by the Republican Army.
Outside Luoyang City, Dong Zhuo returned to the barracks, and he convened his cronies and subordinates to discuss important matters.
Originally, they entered the capital to obey Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao obeyed He Jin, but unexpectedly, He Jin died. In this mutiny, the troops of Yuan Shao and others suffered relatively large losses, with more than 5,000 men and horses, and more than half of them were lost. This gave Dong Zhuo a good opportunity.
Dong Zhuo thinks that the time has come for him to take power directly.
But there is still a lot of work to deal with in front of them. For example, he relied on his own force. And outside the city, there is still a certain garrison of the New Army of the West Garden. Although Yuan Shaojun suffered more than half of the casualties, there were still half of them. Cao Cao's army was also very difficult to fight.
Worst of all, the state army is also coming this way. Once they get the news, they will inevitably strengthen the forces of the capital division Luoyang. The opportunity is right now, and if you don't seize it, there will be no time to take power.
The purpose of Dong Zhuo's meeting was to solve such a problem.
Just when Dong Zhuo was discussing this matter. Firefox's preliminary intelligence analysis report was also submitted. What happened in Luoyang gradually sent the follow-up information to the War Department little by little. Only then did the War Department have some new developments.
Inside the War Department.
"He Jin is actually dead?" Jia Xu was very surprised.
"Yes, this information has been confirmed repeatedly, confirmed in many ways. Inside the palace, as well as the New Army in the West Garden, there are some of our intelligence officers who have observed them with telescopes from a distance. The situation in the General's Mansion is very bad. Shang Wu said.
"It's a real mess." Jia Xu sat down and said. Even Jia Xu himself didn't expect that it would be such a result.
"Zhang Rang's situation is still unclear, we still need to investigate, this guy's funds are still in our bank. If he dies, he may have to be nationalized. Shang Wu said. For the Republican Army, this was a windfall, because Zhang Rang's shares, bonds, and related assets were also a lot of wealth, after all, he used the money in the imperial treasury to invest.
If Zhang Rang is still alive, it will be a big shock for the Republican Army to come up with so much money at once. But it's not clear yet, Shang Wu is asking people to look around.
This can be a big irony. In this world, what can still be worried about Zhang Rang is the Republican Army, after all, this guy has invested a lot of things in the hands of the Republican Army. If it can be nationalized, it will be a lot of money. On the contrary, if it is in the hands of someone else, the situation will become extremely bad, and once it is disguised, it will cause a lot of panic in the market, bonds, stock markets. There is also the banknote system. Those riches will take away quite a lot of gold, silver at once. There are no such hard currencies as reserves. Shang Wu couldn't have imagined.
"In addition, things are still very bad, it is said that outside Luoyang City, Dong Zhuo's army has arrived in Luoyang, but the new army in Xiyuan in the city has suffered serious losses. And the people of the state are also coming to our side. This is extremely disadvantageous for us. Jia Xu said.
"The downside is that it's messy." Shang Wu said with a headache, and the report from the intelligence department was just sent. Shang Wu hasn't seen it yet, but according to some of the situations he has seen, the situation still doesn't seem to be good, and he can't effectively analyze the gains and losses of both sides, which is a big disaster for both sides, and such a disaster will make them make a big mistake in judgment.
"I think this report is well analyzed, and we can refer to it." Jia Xu said and handed the report of the fire fox to Shang Wu. Shang Wu quickly looked at it and nodded in agreement.
"But we still need to watch closely. Wait for the situation to change, but we should prepare some supplies. I think at this time, it is better to properly support Dong Zhuo, at least on the issue of ammunition, it cannot be delayed. Shang Wu said.
