Yan Fu was entrusted with a heavy task, in fact, he was trembling, and it was not so easy to do a good job in intelligence work, although he was the leader of the Iron Blood Army scouts in the past and had a certain amount of experience, but the two jobs could not be said in the same day, and intelligence work was much more complicated, not so simple.

With 5,000 taels of gold, after arriving in Liangzhou, Yan Fu began to ponder, according to Li Rupei's arrangement, he selected a hundred people from the scouts of the Iron and Blood Army, and these 100 people are the backbone of the intelligence network, distributed throughout Datang. Collecting intelligence requires huge expenses, and the stalls are too large, and it is difficult to maintain financial expenses, so Yan Fu made a decision to focus on collecting intelligence from Liangzhou, Xiangyang, Chang'an and other places, as well as the activities of the Huangchao army, which are the most critical information at present.

Yan Fu's decision was supported and praised by Li Rupei.

The first decision made was affirmed by Li Rupei, and Yan Fu was very excited.

You must know that becoming the leader of the intelligence network is not a simple matter, you must get Li Rupei's absolute trust, otherwise you have so much confidential information, and if you have a little dissent, it will be a huge threat to the Iron Army.

Collecting intelligence has a strong purpose, on the surface, this kind of purposeful thing, in the process of operation, will not take any detours, but the actual situation is completely opposite, you need to spy on the information, the other party also needs to keep it secret, at least it will not be spread around, which requires you to take some extraordinary means in the process of spying on intelligence, try your best to obtain information, even if you get information, you also need to verify the authenticity of the information, sometimes false information is dead.

Before Yan Fu came out of Bazhou, he already knew Li Rupei's true identity, which made him even more loyal.

Of the 100 scouts brought out by Yan Fu, 30 stayed in Liangzhou, 10 entered Xiangyang, 20 entered Chang'an, 10 entered Luoyang, and 20 went to the south, focusing on spying on the activities of Huangchao, including Gao Yu's situation, and ten people went to the north, focusing on the activities of many Jiedu envoys in the north.

Judging from this distribution, Shannan West Road and Shannan East Road are the top priorities, followed by many actions of the imperial court, then the situation of Huangchao, and finally the situation in other aspects.

Half a month passed, with the increase in expenses, Yan Fu felt unbearable, except for the intelligence personnel who stayed in Liangzhou, the rest of the personnel according to the activity fund arrangement of one hundred taels of gold per person, carried with them, this expenditure was as high as seven thousand taels of gold, this is only the funds for the settlement, to really carry out a lot of intelligence espionage work, it needs more expenses.

Because there is no foundation, the initial expenses are very large, and the focus is to use money to open the way, to put it bluntly, it is to use money to buy intelligence, for example, Ma Tengyun and others in Liangzhou, Liu Jurong sent Liu Di to Liangzhou and so on.

The process of operation is also a model, trying to get to know the relevant personnel, such as the post of the official post and the official of the Yamen, and then invite them to eat, drink and have fun, send a lot of valuable money, and finally try to get the information out of their mouths, and this kind of information has to be verified in many ways.

This method works well, it can cost a lot of money, and it is very dangerous, just imagine a foreigner, after coming to Liangzhou, frequently invite officials to eat and drink, ask this and that, how can it not be taken seriously, after a little longer, exposure is a matter of course.

After obtaining a few pieces of key information, Yan Fu's mind began to change.

He was inspired by the growth of the Predators.

The Iron Blood Army originally had only a few hundred people, and the previous identity was a bandit, but in just over a year, it reached 10,000 people, this kind of exhibition is not worth boasting about, compared with the Yellow Nest, it is simply not a thing, but the combat effectiveness of the Iron Blood Army is a miracle, many times with less to win more, creating a lot of achievements, and the discipline requirements of the Iron Blood Army are not possessed by all the armies of the Tang Dynasty, it is no exaggeration to say that the Iron Blood Army went out to completely achieve no crime in the autumn, and the soldiers did not dare to mess around at all, otherwise they would be severely dealt with by military law. It is precisely because of the guarantee of discipline that the combat effectiveness of the iron-blooded army becomes stronger.

There are thirty people who follow Yan Fu, although these intelligence officers are scattered in many places in Liangzhou City, including restaurants and inns, but they are always passively collecting intelligence, which is not a good way, if they can find a way to enter the government or the army, then they can directly obtain information.

After having such an idea, Yan Fu began to plan, he was very excited, and couldn't wait to report to Li Rupei, this time Li Rupei's reply was very fast, thinking that his idea was very good and could be implemented immediately, but it was necessary to pay attention to the methods, in addition to the absolute control of intelligence officers, you must know that all intelligence officers in Liangzhou are familiar with each other, once there is a problem in a certain link, it will be all over.

Yan Fu, who was affirmed again, quickly began to act.

The intelligence officers who followed him are all the elite of the Iron Army, and everyone's ability is outstanding, if they enter the army or the government, they will soon be able to get attention, and to put it mildly, they will be able to reach key positions in a short period of time. Once these people are in key positions, it is reasonable to gather important information.

An extraordinary meeting was held in a restaurant.

Yan Fu came to Liangzhou, his identity is a businessman, he set up a restaurant in Liangzhou, as the owner of the restaurant to spy on intelligence, part of the intelligence personnel are also working in the restaurant, these people's key task is to summarize and sort out information, and at the same time do a good job of liaison matters.

Yan Fu put forward this plan, the opportunity is still very suitable, Lu Yanhong is trying to expand the army, in order to increase the strength, he asked officials at all levels to recruit sergeants everywhere, and even go to various places to forcibly recruit young people to join the army, in this case, it is very easy for intelligence officers with unusual skills to enter the army.

After a period of investigation and careful consideration, Yan Fu determined five candidates, four of whom entered the army and one entered the official post.

It is relatively simple to enter the army, the key depends on how hard to work after entering the army, after gaining trust, becoming an officer, and being able to get information in many aspects.

Yan Fu kept in mind Li Rupei's request, although he said that he completely believed in the hundred scouts who followed out, thinking that they would not do anything to betray, but people's hearts are separated from their stomachs, in this world, anything is possible, and many requests are better to say in advance, it should be said that Li Rupei also has such an opinion, and he is not specifically suspicious of a certain person.

After the meeting began, Yan Fu went straight to the point, said his decision, and announced the candidates on the spot.

The decision was very sudden, without prior notice, so everyone was surprised.

"Brothers, leaving the Iron Blood Army and coming to Liangzhou, Xiangyang, Chang'an and other places, like you, I feel great pressure and loss, it should be said that it is much easier in the army, eating meat and drinking wine, killing the enemy heartily, how enjoyable it is, but this is arranged by Li Lang personally, during this time, Li Lang has asked many times, and he is very concerned, and the information sent out here has played a huge role, which is all your credit."

"I rarely communicate with my brothers, you and I am in a city, there are still many opportunities to meet, those brothers scattered in the north and south, basically there is no chance to meet, after a long time, what will happen, who can be sure, a certain believes in many brothers, but also trembling all the time, afraid that a certain brother has a problem with his brain, and is unwilling to live this kind of life of licking blood, if he feels scared and leaves on his own, then it is better to say something, if he is greedy for power and money, say what he shouldn't say, and do what he shouldn't do, I don't want to say more about what kind of situation that will form. ”

After saying these words, Yan Fu sighed heavily, and his face became much stricter.

"The military regulations of the Iron Blood Army, deep into the bone marrow, you are the same, it is impossible to forget, as for the many achievements of the Iron Blood Army, I don't want to say more, those big and small victories are directly related to you, but no matter what kind of military exploits you have made, once you choose to betray, it is the enemy of the entire Iron Army, you choose loyalty, it is no exaggeration to say, follow Li Lang, follow the Iron Army, you will definitely be able to glorify your ancestors, and seal your wife and children."

When Yan Fu said these words, everyone's eyes lit up.

Although he used to be a scout of the Iron Army, few people thought about the future, this topic was too heavy, and it was too far away, leaving the Iron Blood Army and coming to Liangzhou, the environment changed, and everyone was also trying to adapt, thinking of how to do their part, Yan Fu suddenly mentioned the future, and when it came to the bright future of the glorious ancestors and the wife and the child, it was impossible for everyone not to be excited, and it was impossible not to work hard, as for betrayal, no one thought about it at all.

Seeing everyone's expressions, Yan Fu was very happy, in fact, before convening this meeting, the construction he proposed had already arrived in Chang'an, Luoyang and Xiangyang and other places, and there were people in charge in each place, and they would also hold meetings as required.
