The soldiers and horses did not move the grain and grass first. Intelligence activities are often prepared in advance of food and grass.

This is because the three armed forces must act on the basis of real and effective intelligence in order to win victory with a definite target. It is not very difficult to grasp the enemy's situation in advance, but we have to study it very carefully. The so-called: The prophet should not be taken from ghosts and gods, not from things, not from degrees, from people, and from those who know the feelings of the enemy. That is to say, information must not be superstitious, cannot be applied to similar examples, and cannot be obtained from people who know the situation of the enemy.

The balance of victory in the war was already clearly tilted in favor of the Macedonian side. Such an advantage did not come overnight, as early as Podarérios was a child, his father, the Roman king Alous, had already set out to destroy the enemy from within.

Aloyos was also one of the most loyal members of the Macedonian family, and he worked hard for the affairs of the kingdom. People envy him for having two very beautiful wives, but his lovers are no longer happy with him. It's understandable that he can't take care of his wife and take care of his wife's room all day, but he doesn't just stay with the men around him.

In the eyes of the jealous woman at his side, Thessarus and he were inseparable from each other all day long; A group of big men don't go home at night, locked up in a small room and no one is allowed to enter; Podare Rios is even more than ten years old, and still sleeps with Aloyos. Don't teach your child badly. It's like a family tradition. It is precisely because of this that the best beauty tricks of the Romans have no effect on this adversary...

But that's just a short-sighted view of women and ignorant people. Aloyos is actually engaged in a secret war, and he not only needs to keep it secret, but also has to form a joint force with very close partners. He had been fighting the Romans, had experienced the first Roman war, knew the excellence of his opponents, and understood the sinister nature of his opponents. He understood that on the surface Macedonia would have an armistice with Rome, but secretly the struggle would be even more fierce and full of unknown horrors.

The strong are like this, you beat yours, I beat mine. Aloyos' overall plan was to infiltrate and weaken the other side by trade, economic, and social means in peacetime; On the other hand, slowly and carefully plant the spy and let him die, lurking as if he were dead, and waiting for the moment to activate all of them.

Of course, the Romans were doing the same thing, and in the meantime both sides had their fallen spies killed. Spy agents are confronted with bloody facts, living in the White Terror. Of course, the state pays them this expensive salary.

In early Western societies, the bazaar was a complicated place, and you could buy anything as long as you had the money. Developed cities have budding agencies similar to intelligence organizations, and many countries use such spy networks. Advanced countries such as Rome and Macedonia use a combination of marketable and self-organized intelligence networks. Later, the situation was tense, and as the spy war between the two sides deepened, they set up reconnaissance teams in their respective armies.

In the Roman army, Flavies used the Hidden Raid Regiment as a special force and a special reconnaissance operation. The Macedonian army, while Aloyos used the Divine Machine Battalion. When Aloyos personally handed over the Divine Machine Battalion to Podare Ríos, it can be said that the blue is better than the blue. His son put this institution to good use and trained it to become an ace special forces. Since then, the Shenji Battalion has worn many hats, fighting with the army, sabotage raids, special investigations, assigning missions to carry out assassination operations at the highest level, and so on.

It is precisely because of this that the Shenji Battalion and the Shenyin Raid Group have been fighting each other from the imminent battle to the outbreak of war. Intelligence warfare, reconnaissance outposts, and even exchanging information and spreading rumors. In the end, the two aces were defeated on the battlefield of Regulia, and the magic machine won in faith and long-handed attack. But before that, the fierce collision of intelligence information really made the heads of the two sides take great pains.

Non-sage wisdom cannot be used, non-benevolence and righteousness cannot be used, and non-subtlety cannot be obtained. Wow! Wow! Everything. Before anything happened, and the one who heard it first, and the one who was told died. In terms of distinguishing the truth from the fake, Podare Rios is absolutely unfathomable, and he has also proved to win an information advantage over Flavies. He was naturally determined to ensure the validity of intelligence, because when it is outdated, it will be invalid. Even if it's a matter of a few minutes, a quick decision can make all the difference.

Shortly after the start of the war, Macedonia's intelligence agencies ran into a major problem. That is, the intercepted Roman military communications were completely garbled by the fact that Podare Ríos, who was fluent in Latin every day, did not understand it. These letters, although in the Latin alphabet, are unrecognizable because they are not Latin words.

Podarre Ríos, who has always valued the information of letters, is determined to solve the mystery, but the fog is shrouded. After a few days of not thinking about it, he unexpectedly flipped through Latin books and unexpectedly found the answer. It turns out that in ancient Roman legends, people had the habit of encrypting information when they acted secretly or from military sources. Among the common methods, replacing passwords is the most commonly used and convenient. Encrypt the secret letter, and even if it falls into the hands of the enemy, they will not be able to know what the letter says.

The basic idea of this substitution cipher is to encrypt and decrypt the letters by moving them by a certain number of digits. Podare Ríos savored and pondered the mystery as he pondered the intercepted letters. Suddenly, his eyes lit up.

He found that all the letters in the plaintext were offset back by 3 digits on the alphabet. He quickly decoded the letter in this way, and read that the main Roman legions were gathering towards Arestion, and had decided to hold on to the Etruscan region, with a line of Aretion behind the Latin line.

Podare Rios was like a treasure, holding the letter in his hand. Thanks to the gods for allowing him to obtain this, it seems that his painstaking meditation in the past few days has not been in vain, and he had planned to divide his forces to fight Etrusa and Ubria on two separate routes, if that was the case, the war would not end soon. And the outcome is unpredictable. He immediately decided to change the deployment, refine his second plan and implement it. The general did what he thought of, writing and drawing on the battle map, and sometimes writing hard.

Perhaps in front of his eyes, the rolling mountains and the gently flowing rivers were more real than the truth. On the open plain, the horses galloped, and millions of male soldiers were arrayed and ready for action. He was very spiritual, and he didn't know that the night was deep.

Later, on the night of Regulia's victory, the general remembered all this, looked up at the starry sky with satisfaction, and his smile looked very natural.
