Chapter 145: Listen to the Wind

In addition to the court, Li Zhen's own undercurrent, listening to the wind, the blood dragon guard, and the four major organizations of Skynet were also cleaned up by him, and all the executors in charge of the guard work were given to death, and all of them were deposed.

According to the data given by Zheng Lang, Li Zhen's internal and external purge, there were thousands of people who fell to the ground, so the number of people who were implicated and deposed reached tens of thousands, which can be described as a river of blood.

After killing the useless people, most of the positions were taken over by new recruits, only the commander of the listening wind, because of the particularity of listening to the wind, after the commander was killed, Li Zhen was not easy to place people to take over directly, so they could only choose one person from within themselves.

However, the four deacons who are most likely to inherit the position of leader are not subordinate to each other, and they can only compete with each other, but the talents of the four are almost the same, and the merits are similar, so they have not been decided, and now because of the battle in the four directions, there is chaos inside the wind, not to mention the investigation of intelligence, even their internal operations have been completely ineffective, and Li Zhen needs to provide resources, so he is proud to continue.

Now that Luo Lin had such a problem, Li Zhen simply found an excuse to insert him in.

After all, Luo Lin is a high-level disciple who has been taught by Xue Rengui, and I believe that with his ability, as long as he does not make the previous mistakes again, at most two years, it will not be a problem at all to climb to the position of commander - of course, if he still dies, then Li Zhen really can't find a reason to forgive him.

"Thank you, Your Highness, my subordinates are grateful." Xue Rengui was overjoyed, although he didn't know the existence of Tingfeng, but he also knew that since he could be put forward by Li Zhen, this Tingfeng was definitely not a simple organization, but he was afraid that its status was no worse than that of the Blood Dragon Guard or Skynet, if he could become the leader of Tingfeng, then Luo Lin's future status would not be below him.

"Get up, this is your own military merit exchange, we are an equivalent transaction, there is nothing that cannot be written." Li Zhen waved his hand to make him stand up, and he probably understood Xue Rengui's thoughts.

I couldn't help but give him a thumbs up in my heart, sure enough, he is worthy of being a famous general who can leave a name in history, Xue Rengui is Xue Rengui, just from his own personality, he can judge the status of listening to the wind, but Xue Rengui is actually wrong.

In fact, he didn't guess wrong, Tingfeng's status is indeed very special - and it can only be described as special, because Tingfeng is not a simple intelligence organization, but a mercenary organization, and its status is actually above that of intelligence organizations such as Blood Dragon Guard.

That's right, mercenaries.

In ancient times, there was a profession, and it developed very prosperously, at first in the West, but soon this profession was accepted by the Easterners (later in the Battle of Talas, Gao Xianzhi hired the army of Qarluq to fight, and it was precisely because of their rebellion at a critical moment that led to the defeat of the Battle of Talas).

And Li Zhen herself has a mercenary slave ——. Creevey. Rawls. Rogers, this was bought when he was three years old, and the main reason why he hasn't shown up all these years is that he was arranged by Li Zhen to go to Dashi and form Tingfeng, and his deputy is Ben Yin, the black Hercules, an African who is proficient in the art of catching snakes.

With the support of Datang's elite weapons, in just three years, he developed Tingfeng into a well-known mercenary group in Asia, with more than 10,000 elite warriors in his hands, wandering on the battlefields of Central Asian countries.

Even the Tang Dynasty hired them to involve the reinforcements of the western Tibetans when they attacked Tibet, and made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty's conquest of Tibet.

This battle raised Tingfeng's prestige to the peak, so much so that later there were two sentences in Asia - "Where there is war, there is the shadow of Tingfeng mercenaries." "As long as you listen to the wind and participate in the battle, you just need to wave the flag and shout in the back. ”

It can be seen that listening to the wind is powerful and pervasive.

It's just that at the very beginning, Tingfeng did not have an intelligence organization, and their intelligence was learned from the Blood Dragon Guard, but later Li Zhen considered that Listening to the Wind was a separate army after all, and although the Blood Dragon Guard also had overseas intelligence yamen, their focus was at home after all, coupled with Creevey's reaction, so in the ninth year of Zhenguan, Li Zhen drew elites from major intelligence organizations and set up the intelligence department of Tingfeng, whose name is still Tingfeng, which is mainly responsible for intelligence in the Western Regions and Central Asia.

However, in the later development, listening to the wind inevitably infiltrated the Central Plains, so Li Zhen had another powerful intelligence organization in his hands - which was also an unexpected joy.

It's just that at the prisoner sacrifice ceremony, Tingfeng was seriously derelict in his duties, Li Zhen was angry and dismissed Creevey, the commander of the Tingfeng Intelligence Department was obliterated, and after Creevey was deposed, Li Zhen arranged him to another place, which means that not only the Tingfeng Intelligence Department lacked a leader, but even the Tingfeng mercenaries lacked a leader.

After the lack of Crevi, the mercenaries fell into a leaderless state - although Ben Yin's prestige is enough, but because of his own lack of ability, he can only be regarded as a fierce general who charges into battle, and cannot become the marshal of an army, otherwise he can only lead Listening Wind into a desperate situation.

This is also where Xue Rengui's guess was wrong - Li Zhen arranged for Luo Lin to enter Tingfeng, not so that he could compete for the position of commander, but to prepare him to transfer to the mercenary army at the right time as an intelligence officer of Tingfeng, and then make several great contributions under Li Zhen's arrangement, and then he could be supported to become the new leader of Tingfeng.

As for why he made such a big detour, instead of directly arranging Rollin into the army......

Well, there are two reasons for this:

First, the mercenaries who listen to the wind are all outlaws who lick blood from the knife's edge, and there is no military discipline at all, and orthodox soldiers like Luo Lin may not be able to adapt to the military environment immediately, but let him get in touch with him as an intelligence officer first, and then enter the army after the adaptation period, which is the best way.

As for the second reason, the amount is ......

Because Tingfeng is not under Li Zhen's control, although he is the big boss behind Tingfeng, and the establishment of Tingfeng was also promoted by him, but he has never shown his face in front of Tingfeng from beginning to end, so he has no prestige in the army, if Li Zhen directly arranges Luo Lin to enter the army, I am afraid that he will be rejected by everyone.

On the contrary, it is the fact that the intelligence department has a lot of business in the Central Plains, and Li Zhen often comes into contact with them, so it is easier to accept Li Zhen's orders.
