Chapter 313: Divide the Effort
"Pigeon! Training pigeons, training mature pigeons can reduce the time of information transmission to at least half the time! Wei Renshi said to Li Shi: "Moreover, the target of the pigeon is very small, and the use of carrier pigeons can also effectively prevent the enemy from intercepting the message on the way." ”
"Pass with pigeons?" Li Shi raised his eyebrows and frowned slightly.
Wei Renshi nodded, and then explained to Li Shi: "Yes, it's the flying pigeon book." Your Majesty, this law has existed in ancient times, when Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, was surrounded by Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, he used carrier pigeons to pass the book and attract reinforcements to escape. Zhang Qian and Ban Chao envoys to the Western Regions also used pigeons to transmit messages to the royal family. There is a saying in the Book of Han: A few months, Emperor Zhao ascended the throne. For several years, the Xiongnu and the Han were close. Han Qiuwu and others, the Xiongnu died of treachery. After the Han envoy returned to the Xiongnu, Chang Hui invited his guards to be with him, and he had to see the Han envoy at night, with his own Chen Dao. The messenger said that he was single, and the son of Yan Tianzi shot into the forest, and he got geese, and there was enough silk book, and Yan Wu was in a certain Ze. Your Majesty, the pigeon is an extremely sensitive bird to the direction, and the speed of flight is also very fast, and it is extremely fond of the nest, and has a strong homing nature, especially when encountering danger and terror, this "home" desire is stronger. If a pigeon is released 100 miles or 100 miles away from home, it will try to return as fast as possible, and will not want to stay or perch in any unfamiliar place on the way. This characteristic is incomparable to other birds, so we can use this characteristic of pigeons to entangle information around the bird's feet and carry out flying pigeon transmission, which greatly shortens the time of information transmission. In addition, carrier pigeons fly from the air, looking for the shortest route, and do not have to be limited to the direction of the official road, which can also shorten the time. ”
In order for Li Shi to adopt the use of the flying pigeon to transmit intelligence information, Wei Renshi did his homework and found evidence from history overnight.
Li Shi looked at Wei Renshi, thought about it slightly, and asked, "How did you know that pigeons have this habit?" ”
"Uh...... This is something that Chen had heard from an old man before, and then he made a lot of observations before he came to this conclusion...... "Wei Renshi only forgot how to explain how he knew, and then he made a move and explained: "That old man traveled all over the world and said that in my generation of Datang Lingnan Linhai, there were locals who used flying pigeons to pass on books. ”
"If it's really as Qing said, it can also be of great use. It's just that I still have a question, if the enemy has the sharpshooter to hit him with a bow and arrow, then wouldn't my Tang Dynasty military intelligence easily fall into the hands of the enemy? Li Shi can find the key to the problem: "If this problem can't be solved, then I'd rather slow down—huh?!" ”
Li Shi's words suddenly paused, and his face showed ecstasy.
It seems that there is no need for Wei Renshi to remind him, he has already remembered the previous ciphertext.
"Good! Good! Good! Li Shi slapped the desk and stood up very excitedly: "This method is very good!" If the flying pigeon transmission is really fast and convenient, and combined with the method of ciphertext offered by Wei Qing and Li Qing before, it will be of great use! Hahaha...... The two Aiqing are young and promising, and they share worries for the country, and they really deserve to be young heroes, and I deserve to be rewarded! Ding Qing is also dedicated to doing things for me, and I will be rewarded! ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The three of them hurriedly bowed and saluted, and Wei Renshi said again: "Your Majesty, the previous ciphertext is only for superficial use, Your Majesty can replace it with a more complex book or number combination, or even compile another book for this purpose, a set of words or symbols, specifically for the purpose of passwords, so as to minimize the risk of password leakage." ”
"Excellent! This is a very good idea. The two Aiqing have solved the problem of military leakage before, and now they are cooperating with this flying pigeon to pass the book, which is just right! If you give it a try, Aiqing has no difficulty, but it doesn't hurt! Li Shi was a little mediocre, but he was by no means stupid, he got the method of ciphertext, and got the method of flying pigeon to pass the book, and immediately deeply realized that after the combination of these two methods, the huge advantages that can be brought are better.
Wei Renshi bowed and said: "There is only one problem, the ministers have no experience in domesticating birds, and they don't know where to find this pigeon trainer, so they can't start. ”
"I see." Li Shi laughed: "Okay, the three Aiqing are worried about the country, and I should provide convenience." Leave the matter of the pigeon trainer to me, and the three Aiqing can go back and wait for my news. ”
Wei Renshi and the other two glanced at each other, the goal was achieved, and it was time for the two to retire.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Wei Renshi said again: "It's just a matter of flying pigeons, it can be of great use in the future, and it will be a secret of my Tang Dynasty, and it is best for Your Majesty to hide people's eyes and ears so that people don't know the real purpose of looking for pigeon breeders and raising a large number of pigeons." ”
"Yes, what Wei Qing said is very true." Li Shi nodded: "I know what to do. ”
Hearing Li Shi say this, the three of them saluted in unison again: "Your Majesty Shengming! ”
The three of them had nothing to do, and they retired and left after a short time.
After leaving the palace gate and walking out of a distance, I saw Ding Liuyong suddenly turn around and stand in front of Wei Renshi, bent down deeply, and said: "The old slave didn't do anything, but Lord Wei gave this credit to the old slave, the general is kind, and the old slave will never dare to forget!" ”
Li Liang also looked at Wei Renshi gratefully.
The credit cannot be monopolized, otherwise there will be disunity among colleagues.
If you have meat to eat, you can always leave some soup for others to drink, and share some of the credit, everyone will benefit from meritorious service, and you will not lose anything, and you can also get a favor, which is called a win-win situation.
If you have credit, everyone will share it together, hello, I'm good, everyone, that's how the relationship comes out.
In the workplace, it is most taboo to eat alone and ignore others, so it is easiest to be isolated and marginalized.
Moreover, he is the main person in charge of training spies in the future, but the person who really implements his own methods still depends on him.
Therefore, to give him some credit, it is also to let him know that as long as he works hard in the future and does not discount his orders, then he will not be stingy in sharing credit to him.
Hearing Ding Liuyong's words, Wei Renshi smiled and went over to help him up, and said, "Oops! Mr. Ding, isn't this still the method you came up with, and how can I give you the credit? But I should say that I have entrusted you with your blessing. Today's matter is done, in the future, we will do a good job of the things assigned by His Majesty, and the qualified Datang spies from the training department will come out, but will it be useless? You and I should be working together, so why should we be so different? ”
When Ding Liuyong heard this, he smiled again: "The old slave must do his best to assist the lord!" ”
