Chapter 320: The Mysterious Lurker

Ling Xia took the roster of captured spies, and specifically looked for those spies lurking in the yamen for interrogation, the reason why he attached importance to these people was very simple, the army was an extremely strict management organization, especially in wartime, in order to prepare for war, all the armies at all levels had strengthened the supervision of the soldiers, and ordinary soldiers could not leave the barracks at all.

If there are really spies mixed in the army, the other party has only two ways to transmit and receive information, one is that the hidden spy is from a very high level in the army, so high that he can move freely in the barracks, which must be at least the level of a division commander. The second is that spies and contacts regularly transmit information, and the two sides quietly connect at a fixed time and place.

The Eastern Theater has not been formed for a long time, and it is impossible for the Japanese to be promoted to a senior general, so it can only be the second possibility, the place where the spies are lurking is the military camp, and they cannot go out anytime and anywhere, so they can only be contacted to go to the military camp to find him, and the only outsiders who can contact them are government personnel.

It is based on this analysis that Ling Xia focused on interrogating those spies lurking in the government, Lao Cui captured a total of seventeen spies from the yamen at all levels, and these people have various disguised identities, including masters, fast catchers, errand servants, warehouse officials, clerks, procurement, and a female spy was taken as a concubine by a prefect.

Although all those people have received professional training and have a certain amount of experience in counter-interrogation, under Ling Xia's various unbelievable interrogation methods, all of them confessed their identities and confessed the problems they knew like pouring beans from a bamboo tube.

Those officers couldn't pry open the mouths of those spies even if they used the torture tools in the dungeon, but Ling Xia didn't slap or whip, just by casual whispers, he put those spies into obedience, looking at Ling Xiayun's indifferent expression, everyone's hearts rose with admiration.

As the interrogation deepened, the expression on Ling Xia's face gradually became solemn, these spies were all one-line contacts, and none of them were horizontally intertwined, for example, there were three spies lurking in the Yamen of the political envoy of Hongya Province, but they didn't even know each other's identities, their task was to wait for the opportunity to sabotage, and none of them received a task involving the military camp.

Sixteen spies have been interrogated and verified, and those people are not Ling Xia's targets, only the last spy is left at this moment, that is the little // concubine of the prefect of Guijing Mansion in Hongya Province, but as soon as he saw the identity of the other party, Ling Xia was a little frustrated, the other party was a woman, and it was impossible to go to the barracks to connect.

Although he gave up a little in his heart, Ling Xia still decided to try this person for the first trial, and after a few breaths, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old woman with a sweet appearance was put in, this woman should have been tortured, her face was pale, her expression was languid, the corners of her mouth were bleeding, and the clothes on her chest were bloodstained.

When the woman was brought in, her face was expressionless and her eyes were gloomy, but I don't know why? When she looked up and saw Ling Xia opposite, her eyes lit up, Ling Xia noticed the abnormality of the woman, felt a little strange, looked at the woman, and asked in a calm tone, "What is your name?" ”

"My name is Qiu Baopeng." The woman replied in a low voice.

Ling Xia, who was originally sitting in a chair, seemed to think of something after hearing this answer? His face changed instantly.
