Although these lowly "bearded sons" and the like cannot be used to wage a people's war, it is not a problem to use rewards and punishments and training to quickly turn a group of temporary eyeliners and spies into wedges to intervene in the situation in the city.

As an outsider, the rebel army believes too much in its own strength, and fails to mobilize or use these target groups that can be won and used for real mobilization or more use, and it is really a waste to be just cannon fodder and coolies.

Zhou Huai'an also didn't have much interest in reaching out to the so-called left and right city patrol divisions. On the one hand, because he really can't take care of the things in hand, being able to continue to maintain his influence on the Sanjiang Patrol Army/Fury Wind Battalion is the focus he needs to focus on at the moment; on the other hand, they do not want to be easily involved in the struggle between right and wrong at the top, and rashly break the pattern and power structure where such a key point lies; It is also easy to be hated and envied.

Even if there is the attention and envelopment shown by Huangchao monk Rang and others one after another, it is not enough to make him get carried away or feel good about himself, and ignore the basis and foundation of his own establishment; It's just that the things he handles and is responsible for at present are things that others can't interfere in and are good at, but it doesn't mean that there are no potential jealousies and competitors; In any case, it is enough to be able to act in his name and authority.

The specific selection and training process of supplementing the investigation team and the work team has its own rules, and it has already been practiced many times in Chaoxun and other places, so he doesn't have to worry about it at all.

Then, together with a few of his subordinates gathered, they came to the exclusive camp in the city to analyze the physical evidence and corpses seized last night, and by the way, according to their own experience and judgment, they conducted a brainstorming on-site analysis.

After his words and deeds, his subordinates finally have a set of basic processes for investigation and analysis, that is, what is usually called "methodology", what kind of ways and methods are used to observe things and deal with problems, and find ways to find common laws; Only the people closest to him can get a reminder or two, although because of the limitations of their background and along the street, most of them still stay at the stage of seeming to understand and not understand as tools.

The assassination at the banquet has its own and let the other end toss, and when they are almost tossed, they will naturally come over for help; But the assassination on the way back could be solved on its own; The crossbow seized at the scene was a typical official crossbow that could only be pulled apart by both hands, and the arrows were arrows with fine iron cone-headed arrows, which were obviously related to the previous arsenal that had been managed in an extremely chaotic manner and concealed filth;

There is no superfluous evidence among the corpses of the two Assassins who were shot, only that they were of similar origins and circumstances to caravan guards; However, I found other clues from some details such as the calluses of the hands and feet on the body with the family, the degree of skin exposure, the condition of the mouth and teeth, and even the dissected stomach digest.

"So to sum up. They should be the remnants of the foreign officers and soldiers. ”

With the help of the detailed organism scanning function, Zhou Huai'an also entered a kind of detective pretending mode.

"After they disguised themselves and infiltrated the city, they were given shelter and cover, and even the corresponding weapons. And it lurks indoors for at least a few months before it becomes this complexion. ”

Therefore, according to the recognizable food, it is possible to delineate a few areas of ready-made hot food for sale, and then find out the common points of overlap. During this period, there must be their hiding and staying nest owners. ”

"I'll leave this matter to Gome. You choose the men from the camp first. ”

Speaking of which, Zhou Huai'an looked at Ge Congzhou

"The work team, census team, and investigation team transferred from Chaozhou in two days will also be assigned to you."

"Ordered."

Ge Congzhou was a little surprised, but he still responded without hesitation.

He has been by Zhou Huai'an's side these days, and he has also seen a lot of things; I also read a lot of related books when I knew it. As a result, he already knew the meaning of the other party's importance and cultivation of himself.

Of course, at the level of Zhou Huai'an, there is no need to personally grasp everything, many times as long as a general direction and basic framework are given, and then the corresponding people are allowed to play freely, it is regarded as a means to train subordinates. So every once in a while, he will rotate some of these subordinates from Chaozhou and Xunzhou, which can be regarded as an eye-opener and an ear-to-ear awakening to increase growth or something.

The following afternoon, it was his turn to go to the day of the lecture; Of course, after these times of running-in and the refinement of the division of labor, those easy-to-understand stories, methods, skills, etc., have been compiled into movable type printed booklets, and someone can read them out with a script;

The course he was actually responsible for was to take some examples of the statements of the rebels, explain some principles of how to behave in the world and why we should resist and overthrow the oppressive ideals of this world, and also sell some chicken soup for the soul that contains private work, in order to cast a wide net to fish as much as possible to seek some potential resonators.

After all, compared with those generals and leaders of the rebel army who are older and have basically formed the three views, on the contrary, among these young people with limited identities and qualifications, there is still a lot of potential to do and reshape the three views, and it is easier to be guided and changed (brainwashed) to strive to explore and find the possibility of improving the real environment.

Then it's time for the breakout sessions to answer questions.

"Master Xu. Xiao Ke recently had some questions"

Then asked, this is one of the big fish that Zhou Huai'an undoubtedly caught by casting a wide net in it, and Zhou Huai'an couldn't help nodding his head.

"But it doesn't hurt to say it. Here we are all reciprocal. ”

"Obviously, our righteous army and righteous army strictly ordered to restrain the troops, and it was forbidden to disturb the people and give more relief and pensions."

The potential big fish said solemnly.

"I don't know why the citizens of this city still have a lot of rejection and distraction from our righteous army."

"That's because the citizens in the city are from top to bottom, and they are also divided into all kinds of things."

Zhou Huai'an confidently explained.

"Most of the poor and hungry people who were in poverty and indecency, desperate or without food and clothing, have defected to the rebels through relief and solicitation."

"And what is left to be more or less tied to the family is that they occupy the majority of the city; But it is also one of the hearts and minds and help that the rebels need to fight, which requires daily efforts and attitudes to be able to get along with them and then get along. ”

"At least, after the rebels have eliminated those rich families in one place, they must at least find a way to prosper the market and create livelihoods, so that they can rely on their strength to have food and continue to support their families, so as to achieve the effect of stabilizing the party."

"Whether it is to arrange it to work temporarily, or to solicit it to go to Tuntian to open up wasteland, as long as there is a mouthful of food to eat, there will be no superfluous life; So as not to make their families live without a situation for a while, and become a source of new disasters under the rule of the rebels, or to bewitch and incite those with ulterior motives, and become pawns who openly oppose and oppose the rebels. ”

"The rest are the well-to-do families of the city, mostly from small and medium-sized merchants and craftsmen, who are afraid of the rebels; Because of the consistent slander and reputation of the government, coupled with the reckless and reckless people in the righteous army; They are often fearful of being the next target of slaughter and plunder. ”

"And they have a family and a job and their livelihood is relatively passable for a while, and they are more worried about the counteroffensive of the government after the departure of the righteous army, and naturally they dare not get closer and interact with the righteous army; Therefore, the rebels should actively create opportunities to gradually bring their livelihoods and properties into control."

"Once their livelihood and career can no longer be separated from the governance of the righteous army, then the tendency to naturally make little effort is reversed. . . ."

Zhou Huai'an analyzed them one by one in an orderly manner, but on the other hand, he was thinking about another matter.

This potential big fish is called Wang Ziming, a native of Shouzhang County, Yunzhou, and one of the few rebel boys under Huang Chao who survived all the way from Henan to the war, so he is only seventeen years old now, and he is already a team leader in charge of thirty people; However, compared to the captain Chai Ping that Zhou Huai'an knew, it was nothing.

But at least compared to other peers who are still confused about what to do, he already has his own ideas and the courage to seek knowledge and interpretation. This is a rather rare existence even among most of these righteous soldiers who are from a difficult background, who are insensitive to the torture of the cruel reality, and who have a tendency to get by and ignore tomorrow.

Of course, because his identity is just the leader of the team, it is relatively easy for Zhou Huaian to dig up the corner. For example, this time, he assisted the Left and Right City Patrol Division to investigate the remnants of the enemy and traitors in the city; Zhou Huai'an can use the familiar and easy-to-use manpower as an excuse to justifiably get him to work under his own hands/brainwashing; But it depends on his own wishes.

Zhou Huai'an asked and answered new questions and exams, and was busy until dark, and the curfew was sounded again before he set foot on the way home; When he returned to his residence in the inner city, he saw that it was a pile of boxes and cages and other items in the courtyard, and he realized that the deputy chief Shang Rang was efficient and fast, and the compensation he had promised had been delivered to his door early.

。。。。。

And off the coast of Guangzhou, a large merchant ship left Hong Kong.

"It's a pity that Jin Niangzi... A generation of famous seeds turned out to be like this. ”

A voice was also sighing, but it was a middle-aged man with a very rich atmosphere. His name is Liang Zaimou, he is a famous man in Lingnan, and he once made many ideas for Li Zhao, the envoy of Lingdong Jiedu, and he regarded him as a confidant; It is also one of the main things behind the scenes who has been lurking in the city of Guangzhou to create incidents and actively transmit news to the outside world.

"It's just a happy book, what's the pity, even if she's worth a lot, what's the use of her reputation in Lingdi. It's a big deal to spend 10,000 dollars to build one in the future. ”

The other person, who was sitting with him but was much more lean and capable, retorted without hesitation.

His name was Gao Yue, but he was the messenger who was sent south to contact the Association to suppress, outflank and block the grass thieves; It is also the son and nephew of today's Huainan Jiedu envoy, all the soldiers and horses, and Gao Biao, the Jianghuai salt and iron transport envoy; On the surface, he was responsible for the operation and management of the properties and commercial buildings distributed throughout Guangzhou under the name of Gao Biao in the name of the residence official.

"It's a real pity that the design was finally arranged, and the stakeholders and manpower around her to get close to the thief were all ruined. I knew I wouldn't have left her first bud. ”

"After all, it's not a specially trained manpower; And she's only afraid that she has a will to die, plus something happened halfway, and she has no intention of hiding by the thief's side for a long time. There will be such a rash risky move. ”

Liang Zaimou shook his head and sighed.

"She did a big job this time, if she pushes the boat down the river, I'm afraid that the results achieved will not be much worse than the assassination of Shang Thief's head."

"Oh, what's the point and the reason for this."

Gao Yue couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"You see, these are all new things that have been circulating among the grass thieves lately."

Then, he saw Liang Zaimou conjuring up a trick and took out a few thin pamphlets from his sleeve pocket

"Those who can write such things, I'm afraid they won't be idle, but Mingzhu secretly voted for thieves."

"Although they are all allusions to the Three Kingdoms in ancient times, or alluding to the story of Qiangliang in Wagangzhai, there are also travelogues in the form of Xuanzang Dade in foreign regions; But the simple and easy-to-understand principles and skills, even if they are sold to the imperial court or those powerful feudal clans, are also of great use and compete for generous courtesy. ”

Speaking of this, Liang Zaimou not only sighed loudly.

(Of course, they didn't know that Zhou Huai'an had a similar plan at first, but as a novice village in the environment, it was a nightmarish difficulty, and they had to choose the nearest camp to protect themselves)

"It's really unreasonable, this thief is in great trouble."

Subsequently, the more Gao Yue looked at it, the more surprised and surprised he became, and finally he only felt that a cold air rushed from the tailbone to the door of his head; It wasn't until a long time later that some of the stunned hands fell to the ground, and he didn't realize the evil shouting of the case.

"I actually used the story of the Yellow Turban Thief as a reference, pretending to be the ambition of the Shu Han Dynasty in troubled times, and then there was a name for the Liangshan thieves in the name of Tianxingdao, for which they opened their eyes and confused the public. I also do a lot of rhetorical verses to echo the thief's power. ”

"This is a great disaster for the country, and the court and the common people are in trouble."

Liang Zaimou also thinks so.

"This time, it's going to be Gong Yan and hire the real descendants of the Nie clan to cut off the disaster."

Gao Yue couldn't help but have a burst of blue and white anger on his face, and said categorically.

"Even if you can't kill the yellow thief for a while, you have to do your best to get rid of such an alien who aids in the abuse."
