Chapter 310: Espionage Education
Wei Renshi was not idle after all.
He prepares new newspaper content every day. A newspaper, the advertisement is easy to write, the small things in the market are also easy, the poems and songs are not difficult to find, and the serialized legend is also directly taken. The only thing that Wei Renshi needs to take seriously is the reports and comments on the affairs of the imperial court.
However, this kind of article has Han Yu and Liu Yuxi to help write it, which saves a lot of trouble.
There are also folk things, and Lin Sumian, Gong Tingzhi, and Li Shenzhi are also the main writers to write.
Wei Renshi needed polish of their essays, not because of the writing. Each of them is better than the other, and Wei Renshi can't do it himself.
The polishing is just to make their language a little more understandable, and not so aggressive and too sharp.
As for the things Wei Renshi himself wrote, they are all in the vernacular, as long as he is literate, he can understand it, and he is not afraid of different interpretations of the meaning because the sentences are unclear, even if it is spread to people who do not know how to read, it is also convenient to spread the meaning.
It took one day to sort out the contents and send them to the printing workshop of Chongwenkan overnight, and the new newspaper was delivered early the next morning. Wei Renshi asked Ma Weilong to bring his own seal letter and go to the East Palace to send it to Li Yu.
In this way, it takes half a month to do it.
In the right Jin Wuwei, Wei Renshi is educating the people selected by Li Liang on espionage: "First of all, we have to make one thing clear, that is, although the spy is doing something that cannot see the light, as a spy, he is a great person who does not hesitate to lose his reputation for the benefit of the Tang Dynasty, and is a great person with great dedication and sacrifice." Espionage refers not only to agents secretly dispatched by espionage and intelligence agencies to the target country or region to engage in various illegal espionage activities mainly to steal secrets, but also refers to domestic citizens who are secretly recruited by the other side's espionage and intelligence agencies to serve them. Broadly speaking, a spy is a person who works as a secret detective to spy on confidential information or sabotage from an adversary or competitor in order to benefit the party he is working for. One of the main tasks of espionage is to steal information by illegal or legal means, secretly or openly......"
Spies actually appeared very early in China.
In the military book "Liutao", in its third volume "Long Tao", he once described "spies" as follows: "There are eight wanderers, the main serves the traitor and waits for change, opens and closes favors, watches the enemy's intentions, and thinks that they are spies." ”
In a simple sentence, the meaning of the word behind "spy" is perfectly expressed.
Many military books of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period have descriptions and records of spies. But there is no one who really gives a complete account of espionage and its theories than the famous "Art of War". The "Use of the Room" in "The Art of War" is the earliest and most complete book on espionage theory in China and even in the world.
In the earlier Xia Dynasty, spies were already used for activities.
In the history of the Xia Dynasty, there was an earth-shattering event - the loss of Taikang. Youpoor Houyi and Han Xuan seized power one after another, and hunted down the Xia royal family. Shaokang was brought to his mother clan by his mother as a widow, and when he grew up, Shaokang actively organized the Xia people to prepare for the restoration of the country, but at this time, the Central Plains had been in a state of no king for nearly forty years, and the difficulty of recovering the country was extraordinary.
Just when Shaokang was racking his brains to complete the great cause of recovering the country, Nu Ai stepped onto the stage of history. In "Zuo Chuan: The First Year of Mourning", there is a record of "Shaokang's maid Ai Spy pouring".
Female Ai Ben is a female general of the Xia Dynasty, she infiltrated the ruling area of Hanxun, spying on various news, and providing it to Shaokang in a steady stream, so that Shaokang seized the precious opportunity, succeeded in one fell swoop, completed the great cause of the restoration of the Xia Dynasty, and realized the "Shaokang Zhongxing" in history.
“…… From the above examples, it is not difficult to see that the functions and roles of spies overlap to a certain extent with what we often call scouts. However, a qualified spy is much more advanced than a scout, and must master many more abilities than a scout. Wei Renshi continued to preach to the people below: "As a spy, in addition to having the same excellent military ability as the elite of the scouts, you must also have some other abilities, including: camouflage ability, the ability to gain trust, the ability to match identity and behavior, super observation and memory, super adaptability, intelligence collection and analysis ability......
"You can be a peddler and pawn on the street, you can become a beggar and a scoundrel in the market, in the blink of an eye, you are already a high-ranking official, one turns, you become a wealthy businessman again, the next moment you become a wandering Taoist priest, and in a blink of an eye, you become a high-ranking monk...... And no matter what kind of identity you show yourself, it will not arouse other people's doubts about your current identity, because your every move, even a tiny detail, even a look in the eyes, is completely in line with the identity you are currently playing. Wei Renshi said: "And when necessary, you can have a high-intensity and high-explosive battle, and have a strong fighting ability and the ability to escape." ”
"Of course, you must also have a heart that is absolutely loyal to the Tang Dynasty, to the imperial court, and to His Majesty the Emperor. For the good of the country, you must have a firm faith, and for this, you must be able to do it anytime, anywhere, as long as the situation requires it, you must not hesitate to abandon your own life, even the life of your companions! ”
"In this way, he is a qualified Datang spy!" Wei Renshi made a conclusion.
The people below listened with a solemn face, and even the deputies sent by Li Shi to assist Wei Renshi were also wide-eyed, but their expressions were very excited.
Wei Renshi talked about a lot of things, these people were originally the elite of the army, so there was no need to say anything more about combat capability. Therefore, Wei Renshi's main training for them is memory training, as well as training in intelligence collection and analysis ability, and camouflage ability. And among the few people sent by Li Shi to be Wei Renshi's deputy, they are all good at disguising and concealing their appearance, and some are good at collecting intelligence for analysis, but they save Wei Renshi too much trouble.
"Listening to Lord Wei's words today, Fang is only a person who has worked carefully, but it turns out to be so useful! Thank you Lord Wei for justifying our name! After finishing the lecture and practice, one of the people sent by Li Shi saluted Wei Ren and said.
"What did Mr. Ding say?" Wei Renshi said: "The people I admire the most are the soldiers, and the most important thing is the meticulous work and scouts in the army. In order to spy on intelligence, in order to make Datang gain the benefit of intelligence, Mr. Ding and all the gentlemen are incognito and willing to keep their names silent, this is the great loyalty of the country and the king! It is a great pleasure to work with all of you today! ”
Although these people do not have official titles, they are the most direct eyes and ears of Li Shi, and they are also the dead soldiers raised by Li Shi, and they are deeply trusted by Li Shi. Therefore, Wei Renshi is also very courteous to these people.
When everyone heard Wei Renshi's sincere words, they were immediately grateful.
