The highest establishment of the Yulin Secret Guard is the town, and the rank of commander is colonel. It will never be possible. This is an iron law set by the Holy Ancestor, once someone violates it, the lower level has the right to kill the trespasser.

Tu Tianjiao is the colonel of the second town of Yulin Secret Guard, under which there are eighteen colonels, thirty-six lieutenant colonels and fifty-six majors. Generally speaking, the Major is the supreme leader of the Secret Guard of a county. The previous shopkeeper He was with the rank of major.

It's no wonder that Wang Rong asked such a question, it has been almost a month since Shopkeeper He committed suicide, and the new major sent by the imperial court should also arrive. Wang Rong's eyes are full of expectations now, and he hopes that Shen Yun will say yes.

As a secret guard who has no backbone and is hunted down by enemies everywhere in his own land, it is not too anxious to expect a leader.

But Shen Yun didn't paint a perfect symbol for his expectations.

"It's not. This black jade token is just a birthday gift from His Majesty! ”

Shen Yun saw a flash of surprise and loss in Wang Rong's eyes, and sighed, "Is there anything I can do to help you?" ”

Wang Rong smiled bitterly and said, "Help me? Oh, no. Master Hou, you saved me, and I'm already very grateful. It's hateful that the dark guard is now scattered, and there is no way to face the rampant weasels of the Weasel group. I don't know when the new major will come, it seems that this Bohai County is destined to become the back garden of the Japanese people, hateful, hateful! ”

The grief and indignation in Wang Rong's tone infected everyone around him. In this era of Han supremacy, who would be willing to see this situation?

Zhang Ji clenched his fists and said to Shen Yun: "Master Hou, we can't watch Fangou wreak havoc in my territory, right?" ”

Shi Qian jumped onto the only wooden table in the grass shed, and said angrily: "Damn, Lao Tzu doesn't believe that their ninjutsu is faster than my light skills, Master Hou, give the order, I'll teach them a lesson!" ”

Bai Xiaosheng said: "Don't be reckless, after all, Hou Ye is the Marquis of Bohai of the Han Dynasty, and he does not belong to the secret guard, and rash interference may cause unexpected consequences." ”

Zhang Ji said: "There is a consequence of a bird, the Japanese are rampant, we serve the country, what's wrong with serving the court?" ”

Bai Xiaosheng tapped his fingers and said implicitly: "The secret guard is a weapon of the country, the emperor's mind has always been unpredictable, and the marquis is contaminated with such a national weapon with the dignity of a dignified marquis, and the blessings and disasters are unpredictable!" ”

Shi Qian shrank his neck and jumped off the table again, he could be regarded as having understood the emperor's mind, so he was also a little discouraged in his heart. After all, Shen Yun did not have the emperor's authorization, and it was indeed easy to be suspicious of the emperor if he touched the matter of the secret guard casually.

The crowd fell silent.

Shen Yun didn't think about it in his heart, he didn't know much about the meaning of the emperor giving him this black jade token before, but later after learning about the huge energy of this jade token from Gongfu Xiao's mouth, he understood a little. The emperor was worried that Shen Mu's incident would repeat itself on him, so he gave him a jade plaque to save his life. From this, it can be seen that the dark guard does have a very large amount of energy, and if someone can mobilize it, it is a force that even the duke can hardly resist!

Judging from the current situation, there are fewer times when I want this jade plate to save my life, but there are more times when I use this jade plate to fight the Japanese people.

Hmph, Wato, Meiji, Itachi-gumi...... I really want to see what you are capable of.

Thinking of this, Shen Yun looked at Wang Rong with burning eyes and said, "Yes, I am the new Major of the Dark Guard, Wang Rong, now I have a few things for you to answer truthfully!" ”

Wang Rong was stunned: "You just ......" and then understood what Shen Yun meant, and said with surprise and worry: "What does Master Hou want to ask?" ”

Bai Xiaosheng sighed, it seems that his master has decided to get into this troubled water, what else can he do but give full support?

"First, the establishment of the secret guard in Bohai County; second, how many guards still have in Bohai County; Third, the distribution of the strength of the Dark Guard in Bohai County. ”

Shen Yun hit the nail on the head, and every question made Wang Rong speechless.

After a while, Wang Rong said: "That's it, Qin Ming, the captain of the secret guard of Bohai County, has returned to Bohai Mansion, how are you going to ask him?" He definitely knows more than I do! ”

Qin Ming?

Shen Yun was taken aback and asked, "But the commander of the third battalion of the first brigade of the first town of the former division of the second class army in Fusang Prefecture?" ”

"How do you know? I only found out the day before yesterday! Wang Rongqi said.

Shen Yun smiled bitterly, he didn't expect this secret guard's hand to stretch out so long, and there were even secret guards in the regular army. I really underestimate the secret guard!

…………………… Dividing line ........................

After the arrival of the rear division, the front division of the second class of the Fusang Prefecture Army Corps withdrew to rest outside Bohai Prefecture one after another. It was a military order issued by Tan Zhen, the commander of the rear division. Xi Lu was killed in battle, the former division was leaderless, and in the entire second-class legion, Tan Zhen had the highest rank, and his orders had legal effect.

Qin Ming's third battalion was stationed at the foot of Jingfu Mountain, and as the most complete unit with the most complete structure and the merit of accommodating other "defeated soldiers", the treatment they were able to enter the city and be stationed would not cause others to be angry.

In a dilapidated house at the foot of Jingfu Mountain, Shen Yun saw Qin Ming in civilian clothes.

"Are you really the newly appointed Major of the Bohai County Secret Guard appointed by His Majesty?" Qin Ming asked with doubts.

Shen Yun didn't answer, and directly threw the black jade token into Qin Ming's arms. Qin Ming was immediately awe-struck when he saw it, respectfully handed over the ink jade token to Shen Yun, and then gave a military salute vigorously: "Qin Ming, the captain of the Bohai County Secret Guard, has seen Lord Major!" ”

The rank of the Secret Guard is not linked to the rank of the Yulin Army, even if Qin Ming is now a general, he has to salute when he sees someone with a higher rank than him in a separate place.

Shen Yun thought to himself, I didn't admit that I was the Major of the Dark Guard from beginning to end, he called it after he saw the Moyu token, if I talk about it at that time, I can take advantage of it!

Although Qin Ming was a little embarrassed by Shen Yun's change of identity, he still respectfully answered all of Shen Yun's questions.

Yulin secret guards are divided into two types: military guards and political guards, political guards are spies like Wang Rong who infiltrate the lives of ordinary people, and military guards are hidden guards lurking in the army. The functions of the two are the same, but the difference is that the military guard is much less than the political guard. Moreover, most of the positions are not high, and there are even fewer secret guards like Qin Ming, who are already considered mid-level officers. Their main purpose is to investigate whether the generals of their subordinate units have the mentality and actions of rebellion.

Of course, because of the perfection of the imperial military system and the construction of the national consciousness of the military, the existence of this kind of military guard has become somewhat redundant, but it is still indispensable.

Taking the Fusang Prefecture Second Class Army as an example, in the entire legion, there were only ten secret guards, who were in different divisions. In the former division, there are three people including Qin Ming, of course, who these three people are, Qin Ming can't say.

If it weren't for the fact that Zhengwei was hit too badly this time, Qin Ming found out and took the initiative to reveal his identity, Wang Rong would never know his identity.

As for the strength of the secret guards of Bohai County now, according to Qin Ming's statement, it should still be quite strong.

The political guard is divided into teams such as stepping on the white, selecting the front, stabbing the horse, holding the lamp, and carrying the bottom. Among them, Tabai is equivalent to a scout in the army, and there is no need to have direct contact with the enemy, only to spy on intelligence. And Wang Rong belongs to the category of Feng Feng and Assassin, who is specifically responsible for violent actions. The horse is responsible for the evacuation of personnel, the head of the lamp is responsible for sending the news to the general, and the bottom is responsible for the aftermath.

Each of these teams has its own helmsman, who is centralized and accountable to Major Darkguard, and has no communication channels with each other. And the helmsman of these teams also asks the team members below to do the same.

This one-line approach does help the Dark Guard's secrecy, but the drawbacks are just as obvious. As soon as Shopkeeper He died, the two teams of Xuanfeng and Assassin were almost wiped out, but they could not get great assistance from other teams.

Wang Rong said that except for a few people introduced to him by Shopkeeper He on the day of the operation, no other secret guards appeared. Qin Ming came out of nowhere.

"So how do you reach other people?" Shen Yun asked.

Qin Ming raised his head suddenly, with the deepest vigilance in his eyes: "Before you came, didn't Boss Tu tell you the way?" ”

Shen Yun was stunned and almost slapped himself, but he reacted quite quickly, and immediately said: "I was ordered to be in danger, and I didn't go back to Luoyang, and no one has told me this for the time being!" Why, don't you know? ”

The vigilance in Qin Ming's eyes had not completely dissipated, Shen Yun clapped his hands, turned his head and left: "Don't say it, Lao Tzu is wronged enough to be ordered in danger, just watch the secret guard being pressed and beaten by the Japanese people!" Anyway, I don't care about the! ”

"Wait!"

Shen Yun stood still with a smile, but did not look back. I only heard Qin Ming smile bitterly: "You are also the Marquis of the Han Dynasty, how can you still talk like us...... At night, put six red Kong Ming lanterns on Gyeongbok Mountain, and then put a note with the location of the gathering place in the mouth of the Shishi Town Beast in front of the palace, and the helmsmen of each team will send someone to contact them. As long as your identity as a major is confirmed, these helmsmen will naturally come out to see you separately! ”

Damn, that's a nuisance. But it's safe enough. Compared with the situation in later TV dramas, a note can summon all the responsible persons and let people catch them all in one go, which is much more real.

It is said that Kong Ming Lantern Shen Yun has also seen it. I don't know if the Holy Ancestor's predecessors deliberately released water, but the Kong Ming lantern made by using the principle of hot air balloons was still invented by Zhuge Kongming.

Of course, at that time, Brother Zhuge was already the number one think tank under the command of the Holy Ancestor, and the first generation of "Zhigong" was his old man.

…………………… Dividing line ........................

On the ninth day of the ninth month of the Han Dynasty, the Double Ninth Festival. In this season of "remote knowledge of the brothers' ascending places", mountain climbing is also a tradition of the Han people.

In Seoul, there are only two places for people to climb mountains, Gyeongboksan Mountain and Hengsan Mountain. But today, Hengshan has been sealed.

On the mountainside of each mountain road leading to Heng Mountain, there will always be a team of Shen family members who stop everyone. There is only one reason: "The Marquis of Bohai will meet guests in Wangshan Pavilion, and idle people are not allowed to go up the mountain!" ”

Such an arrogant reason certainly caused dissatisfaction among some people, but Shen Yun was prepared with both hands, and all the people who were rejected could get a coupon stamped with the Shen family's seal, and with this coupon, they could get a seven-fold discount when they went to buy things in the Shen family's store.

In fact, this kind of commercial promotion method has long existed, and the Yan family often issues this kind of coupon every New Year's holiday, and the people have benefited, and they can't compete with Bohai Hou, so they all take the coupon and leave happily.

In the Wangshan Pavilion, Shen Yun asked Bai Xiaosheng to arrange tea and snacks, waiting for everyone at the helm here.

Yesterday, the helmsmen of the dark guard had already sent someone to confirm Shen Yun's identity, but of course Shen Yun still threw away the ink jade token, and did not admit or deny his identity. Just inform them to gather here today.

Wang Rong sat beside Shen Yun, he had been following Shen Yun for the past two days, obviously still a little uneasy about Shen Yun. And Zhou Hui seemed to be avoiding Wang Rong, hiding in his grass hut all day long and not coming out. With this big tail, Shen Yun really couldn't find a chance to be alone with Zhou Hui.

The helmsmen of the Tabai, Walking, Thrusting, and Fenfeng teams have arrived, all of them are ordinary people who can't be ordinary anymore, and the helmsman of the Tabai team is surnamed Xu, who is a small boss who operates aquatic products in Bohai Mansion, and when he speaks, his face is full of smiles, and the atmosphere of philistines is very strong, and he doesn't look like a dark guard. The others were similar, and the helmsman of the horse walker turned out to be a farmer, who had come from Ulsan.

It's really varied, and there are all kinds of people. Only they can quickly integrate into ordinary people and play the role of secret guards.

Xu didn't say the specific name of the helm, he said to Shen Yun with a smile on his face: "Master Hou, I didn't expect you to be the new major of our Bohai Secret Guard, I don't know what your order is to summon us and others this time?" ”

As he spoke, the boss of the philistine also carefully looked at the faces of several other helmsmen, looking very curious.

Also, except for this time, a few of them really haven't been in contact. Not even the face is right. Of course, their identities and addresses were also told to Shen Yun one by one, and they were not told in public.

Shen Yun said: "Hehe, Lao Xu, don't worry, the helm of the team has not yet arrived, and I will make unified arrangements when he comes." ”

At this time, Bai Xiaosheng beside him leaned up and said, "Master Hou, the helm of the bottom team is here." ”

A clear voice came from behind Shen Yun, and before anyone arrived, he came first: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I let Lord Major and everyone at the helm wait for a long time, I thought I was in the wrong place!" ”

Shen Yun turned around, but he was stunned.

This person is actually Ling Fox Peng???!!!

Ling Hupeng saw Shen Yun but was very calm, bowed to him with a smile, and said loudly: "Master Hou, let's meet again!" Fang was stopped by someone on the mountainside, and thought that he had gone to the wrong place, and he didn't know that it was right until he went back to confirm it again, so it was too late! Don't blame it, don't blame it! ”

Shen Yun was stunned for a while, then shook his head and smiled: "I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it...... Come on, come on, Brother Gou You, sit! ”

"Master Hou is a major, please first!" Ling Hu Peng said politely.

Everyone sat down, and Shen Yun did not introduce who was at the helm of what team, but said directly: "I am in charge of the secret guard for the first time, and I don't understand many things very well, if there is anything wrong, you must say it in advance." ”

"Now the situation of the Dark Guard must be well understood by you, the two teams of Selector and Assassin have almost been wiped out. The Weasel group deceived people too much, first wreaking havoc on our land, and now killing my robe, it's ......"

Speaking of this, Shen Yun stopped talking. He found that there was no change in the faces of all the people at the helm, like idlers who had nothing to do with themselves.

Damn, even if you're cold-blooded, you should at least be in line with my new leader, right? I really can't be a subordinate!

Among the helmsmen, Hu Peng and Shen Yun were more familiar, and when they saw that the scene was cold, they arched their hands and said, "Master Hou, you should give the order directly!" We all know these things in our hearts, and we will not let the Japanese people please them! ”

Shen Yun's face softened, and he nodded and said, "Since that's the case, I'll just say it." I need all the information about the Japanese in Fuso, including where they are now, the roster of all the generals, and all the changes in the country. In addition, all the activities of the Itachi group in Bohai County should be investigated as much as possible. Within ten days, I will completely drive the Weasel group out of Bohai County! ”

For the former, all the helms nodded, but the latter ......

Lao Xu said: "Master Hou, my subordinates take the liberty of asking, both the Xuanfeng and the Assassin teams have been hit hard, how can we drive the Weasel Group out of Bohai County?" If the Hou Ye plans to let the government do it, then we naturally have nothing to say, but that will inevitably expose some of us--- but I can't hide it, my subordinates have a lot of Xiao Taishou's handles in their hands, once they are discovered, I can only go back to Luoyang! ”

What Lao Xu said was very reasonable, Shen Yun had already thought of it, he said: "I have other arrangements for the spur and the selection of the front, and I will not let the government interfere." But in other respects, I want you to be the best you can be! ”

"Yes, Master Hou!"

This time, they were united, and everyone spoke in unison, but it really had the momentum of a soldier.

After that, we talked about some other trivial matters, and you took the helm before taking your leave. Shen Yun left Lao Xu alone, he wanted Lao Xu to help check another matter, but Ling Hupeng seemed to have something to tell Shen Yun alone, so he hesitated.

Seeing this, Shen Yun asked Bai Xiaosheng to take Lao Xu to the grass shed to wait, leaving Linghu Peng to talk alone.

"What? Still in the mood for a drink? Shen Yun pointed to the wine jug on the stone table in the pavilion and smiled.

Ling Hu Peng remembered the drink that day, and couldn't help but smile, but he still shook his head and said: "No, I really have something important to tell Hou Ye today, and I couldn't find the person in charge before, so I have nowhere to declare." ”

Shen Yun saw him solemn, so he asked, "What is the matter?" ”

Ling Hu Peng sat down and said in a low voice: "Master Hou still remembers Mano?" ”

Shen Yun was stunned, but he didn't say anything, and listened quietly.

Linghu Peng said: "Actually, I was asked by the shopkeeper to invite Ma Nuo here that day, in order to find out Ma Nuo's intention. I knew that he was actually from Seoul, but he said that he came directly from Rome, which was problematic in itself. Then, after my secret investigation during this time, I finally found traces of Mano.

It turned out that he was an envoy sent by Rome to the Wa Kingdom in order to form an alliance with the Wa King Meiji. The subordinates are even thinking that this time the Japanese are raging, maybe Ma Nuo is making waves in it, otherwise how can the Japanese have the courage to offend my Han Tianwei! ”

Shen Yun secretly memorized in his heart, but he didn't think much of his later conclusion. Even without the help of the Romans, sooner or later the Japanese would have taken action against the Han, especially with the Meiji traverser.

Ling Hupeng continued: "After the mid-Autumn Festival, Mano left Bohai Mansion, and his subordinates also accompanied him under the pretext of discovering that he had a Roman merchant ship in the port of Busan, which was very suspicious. His subordinates once went on the ship at night to inspect and found that this merchant ship was loaded with nearly 10,000 exquisite Maass steel knives! ”

Shen Yun remembered that Ma Nuo said that there were steel knives for sale, and couldn't help but ask, "What do those knives look like?" ”

Ling Hupeng roughly described it, and Shen Yun immediately heard that these Maass steel knives were the Mo knives used by Meiji!

10,000 Mo knives! This Mano is really a big deal!

"Master Hou, my subordinates also found that Ma Nuo often has contact with the Weasel Group. According to the information given by the Tabai team, the merchant ship Mano has been docked at the port of Busan for more than two months, and it has neither landed nor loaded its cargo. My subordinates are worried that these 10,000 steel knives will flow into the Wa Kingdom, which will be a great danger to my Han! ”

Shen Yun was silent, just looked at Ling Hupeng.

Ling Hu Peng looked at himself strangely, and hurriedly asked, "Master Hou, did your subordinates say something wrong?" ”

"Oh, no." Shen Yun retracted his gaze and said with a smile: "I know, I will make another arrangement!" ”

"That subordinate retires!" Ling Hu Peng saw that Shen Yun was thinking otherwise, so he got up and said goodbye.

Shen Yun looked at Ling Hupeng's back and didn't speak for a long time. Until Shi Qian came over and called him: "Master Hou, everyone is gone, are you going down the mountain now?" ”

Shen Yun said to Shi Qian: "Shi Qian, are you sure that you can follow people?" ”

Shi Qian smiled: "That's my old job, Hou Ye said, who are you following?" ”

Shen Yun pointed to Ling Hupeng, who was far away: "Just follow him!" ”

Shi Qian was shocked: "Master Hou doubts him? ”

Shen Yun shook his head: "It's not doubt, but a little doubt." As soon as Mano came to me to talk about the sale of the ordnance, Ling Hupeng came to tell me this, as if urging me to buy the ordnance as soon as possible...... It's such a coincidence, I have to guard against it! Go ahead, be careful! ”

Shi Qian nodded: "I understand, don't worry!" ”
