Chapter 27 Formation of a security team
After shelving Wang Feng's "Qian Zhuang Jihua", the meeting moved on to the third and most important agenda -- listening to Liang Ziyue's report on the investigation made by Liang Ziyue on behalf of the Ministry of Intelligence on the "possible leakage of secrets through the identity of the people."
As the core interests of the crossing team were involved, all the attendees were very attentive and listened very carefully. Liang Ziyue naturally knew this, so he was also very careful when reporting, and he didn't dare to be sloppy.
He said: "According to the investigation and evidence collection of more than half a month by my brother and a number of agents from the Internal Affairs Section, we have basically figured out the ins and outs of this matter, and found out the person directly responsible for leaking the internal information that Starling, Brother Eleven, and others had military experience.
The leaker's name is Ma Dahe, a Northern Han refugee who was drafted into the pioneer camp at the beginning of last year, and is now a senior soldier in the sixth squad of the eighth squad of the third squadron of the 'Feilong Pioneer Battalion'. His squad was in charge of watching the 'Xiaoyao Building' from March to June this year, and it was during this time that the above-mentioned internal information leak occurred. Now the class has completed the expiration rotation and withdrawn the 'Flying Dragon Village'. ”
"Since this person is from the Northern Han Dynasty, his understanding of us should be very limited, how did he know about what we experienced before?" Qian Yuanshan asked puzzled--Although these soldiers who watched the scene were under the management of the Ministry of Security during their missions, as one of the responsible persons of the Ministry of Military Affairs, Qian Yuanshan still had to ask for clarification.
"Ma Dahe's squad leader is a minion of the original 'Five Tiger Village', and the past experiences of several brothers and brothers are all inadvertently told to Ma Dahe when he is chatting at ordinary times. Of course, all these experiences he talked about were perfunctory remarks made by several brothers and brothers to the veterans of the 'Pioneer Battalion', and that you had served as a soldier in the south before. Liang Ziyue explained, "It just so happens that this Ma Dahe is a very talkative person, and when he has nothing to do, he likes to chat and talk nonsense with the guys of 'Xiaoyaolou', turtle fathers, and even prostitutes." As a result, once when I was chatting with a guy, I leaked the situation. ”
"So, he's an indirect leak, and the guy who chatted with him is the direct leaker?" Qian Yuanshan guessed.
Liang Ziyue shook his head when he heard this, and said, "We have investigated, that guy is the old man of the original Liangxiang 'Flower Pavilion', and his mouth is very strict. After listening to Ma Dahe's words, he not only did not tell others about it, but also reminded Ma Dahe on the spot to be careful when he spoke, and not to open his mouth without scruples. This can be confirmed by the other nursing homes and men who were present at the time. ”
"Why do I get more confused the more I listen?" Qian Yuanshan was puzzled, "Since that guy didn't leak the secret, who leaked the secret, could it be the other people present at the time?" ”
Qian Yuanshan pondered for a moment when he said this, and said to himself: "That's not right, since you insist that this Ma Dahe is the direct leaker, shouldn't it be the person who was present at the time?" Were there still outsiders at that time? ”
Liang Ziyue nodded and said, "Brother Eleven is right, there are indeed 'outsiders' here. It's just that this 'outsider' was not in the room where Ma Dahe and the others were at that time, but next door to them. This person's name is He Xicai, because he is the third oldest in the family, and he is the son of a wealthy local businessman in Youzhou, he has always been generous and likes to make friends with wine and meat, so people who know him call him He Sanshao. He was a frequent visitor to the 'Xiaoyao Building', and when Ma Dahe leaked secrets, he happened to be drinking flower wine with the girl in the next room. This Ma Dahe spoke with a loud voice, so every word he said was listened to by this He Sanshao. This point, the girl who accompanied He Sanshao to drink flower wine can testify. ”
"In that case, how do you conclude that it was Major General He San who leaked the news to Feng Cheng and Xiao Siwen?" Qian Yuanshan continued to ask.
"Brother Eleventh is right, based on this alone, it is naturally impossible to conclude that He Sanshao is the middleman who passes on secrets." Liang Ziyue agreed, "So, after learning about this situation, we asked in detail about the situation of the girl who accompanied He Sanshao to drink flower wine. According to her, when He Sanshao heard the news, his expression was abnormal, and after drinking half of the wine, he deduced that he remembered an important thing and left in a hurry. Moreover, he has not been to the 'Easy Building' since then.
After getting this clue, we shifted the focus of our investigation to this He Sanshao. It turned out that not only did He Sanshao's family have business dealings with Feng Cheng, but he also had a close relationship with Feng Cheng, often going in and out of brothels together and drinking and having fun with a group of fox friends and dogs. From this point of view, it is quite possible that he will tell Feng Cheng what he has heard. ,
However, for the sake of insurance, we did not rush to conclusions, but found a suitable opportunity to rob this He Sanshao to a secluded place and implement the matter to him. This guy didn't wait for us to coerce and lure him, so he recruited all the stories of how he overheard the news and how he ran to report to Feng Cheng. From this, we finally confirmed the whole process of leaking. ”
After listening to Liang Ziyue's explanation, Qian Yuanshan nodded at first, and then asked with some concern: "With this He Sanshao's confession, it is naturally good." However, in this way, isn't it equivalent to not confessing to ourselves, proving that we have ghosts in our hearts? That He Sanshao will definitely report this matter to Feng Cheng when he goes back, and Feng Cheng and Xiao Siwen will definitely be more suspicious of us, which is very unfavorable to us. ”
Liang Ziyue waved his hand when he heard this, and said, "Brother Eleventh doesn't have to worry, that He Sanshao won't go to complain to Feng Cheng." ”
"Why is that?" Qian Yuanshan has an explanation.
"Because after we let him go, he went to the 'Xiaoyao Building' to drink flower wine. And, because he was in a bad mood, he got drunk this time. As a result, after coming out of the 'Xiaoyao Building', he accidentally fell into a well on the side of the street and drowned. Liang Ziyue explained vividly, as if the whole process was seen with his own eyes.
Although Liang Ziyue looked calm when he spoke, he didn't believe that things would be so coincidental when he killed Qian Yuanshan. However, for him, the most important thing is that the leak has been investigated, and as for the process of investigation, how He Sanshao died is not within his consideration.
Although the results of the investigation showed that Ma Dahe had inadvertently leaked secrets, the responsibility still needs to be investigated. Since Qian Yuanshan and other directly responsible superiors were out to fight, the punishment opinions on Ma Dahe and other relevant responsible persons were given by several members of the committee.
According to the committee's opinion, Ma Dahe, who was directly responsible, was expelled from the "Flying Dragon Pioneer Battalion" and assigned to work as a miner at an iron ore mine in Danzhou for three years. Moreover, although other miners work harder, on the one hand, they earn a lot of money, and on the other hand, they usually have one day off every seven days, and can go to the surrounding villages and towns and county towns to relax and relax, but Ma Dahe, who is a guilty person, cannot enjoy these rights, and his scope of activities is limited to the small space between the mine and the miners' dormitory.
In addition to Ma Dahe, the other soldiers present at the time were all punished with demerits for failing to stop Ma Dahe's nonsense in time. And Ma Dahe's direct squad leader was also removed from his position as squad leader and transferred to other squadrons as a private because he casually leaked things that they should not have known, and because he was not strict with his subordinates. At the same time, these punished soldiers must undergo intensive secrecy education before they can return to the team.
The only person who benefited from this incident, or the only one in the team who benefited - Feng Cheng and Xiao Siwen also gained a lot, but it is unknown how they would use the news - was the guy who stopped Ma Dahe's nonsense, and he was not only promoted to the junior manager of the "Xiaoyao Building", but also received a large reward.
The reaction of the participants to the Committee's handling was mixed. Some brothers feel that this is appropriate, and think that they just can't be merciful to the leaker. And some brothers feel that the punishment is a bit heavy, thinking that what Ma Dahe leaked this time is just a perfunctory remark that the brothers of the Military Department used to deal with those old people in the "Five Tiger Village", and it does not involve the core secrets of the team, even if it is known by outsiders, it doesn't matter much.
Moreover, when they were in contact with Zhong Yuanwai's family and Han Tuiguan's family, as well as when they met Chai Rong not long ago, they all revealed their identities as "overseas returnees", and even directly told Xu Shaoan and others that they had military experience overseas. If Ma Dahe's performance counts as a leak, then isn't the brother who revealed his so-called true identity to the previous people a bigger leak - although these statements are actually false.
In this regard, Zhang Weixin expressed his attitude on behalf of the committee. "There are things that don't just look at the surface, but look at the far-reaching impact it can have on the team," he says. Yes, what Ma Dahe leaked was just the old eleven who made up the rhetoric to fool those veterans, and on the surface, it doesn't seem to have any impact on the team, compared to what we told Zhong Yuanwai, Han Tuiguan, Chai Rong and others before, it's not worth mentioning at all. ,
However, we should look at things comprehensively and not one-sidedly. Zhong Yuanwai and Han Tuiguan are both their own people, and they are not only related to us, but also have in-laws. If something happens to us, they won't end well. In the case of their own vital interests, not only will they not go around talking nonsense, but they will also find ways to help us keep it secret. As for Chai Rong, he and Liao Guo and Xiao Siwen are enemies of the two countries, and it is impossible for him to tell each other our so-called 'true identity'.
Moreover, the most important point is that whether we identified ourselves to Zhong Yuanwai and Han Tuiguan, or explained our origin to Chai Rong, it was all approved by the committee and carried out with the prior knowledge of the brothers, which is completely different from Ma Dahe's wanton nonsense.
You see, there may be two for everything. If we don't deal with this matter, or if we just criticize it lightly, then other people, including those hired workers and guys outside the 'Flying Dragon Pioneer Camp', will think that the usual secrecy education is all false, just put on a show and go through the motions, even if they violate the secrecy regulations, it is not a big deal, at most it is a few lessons, or a few days of confinement. If this is the case, I am afraid that it will not be long before many of our core secrets will become the topic of discussion in the streets of Liangxiang City.
You can imagine that if outsiders knew that we had the ability to manufacture extremely powerful weapons, that our so-called glass products were produced by ourselves at a very low cost, and that we were secretly communicating with the Zhou State in the south, would we still be able to live as nourishing as we are now, whether we could still have a foothold in Youzhou, and whether we could still take the initiative in the struggle against the left-behind mansions.
Once we lose this initiative, then the consequences are quite serious. At the least, he became the meat on the chopping block of the left-behind mansion, and he had to give up all the benefits he deserved. The most important thing is to retreat to the 'cool garden' and become an out-and-out bandit and grass coward. or even had to completely give up everything here and go south to Kaifeng, and go to Chai Rong to live a life under the fence. ”
Zhang Weixin's words made all the brothers nod their heads, and the few who originally opposed the handling of the opinions no longer insisted as they did just now. Seeing this situation, Wang Kunjun immediately struck while the iron was hot and said: "What Lao Qi said is very reasonable. As the saying goes, 'no rules, no rules', since we have formulated the "Confidentiality Regulations", and all the locals who join the team have received relevant training and made corresponding commitments, then we must bear the consequences of violating the regulations and breaking the commitments. 'Orders and prohibitions' and 'clear rewards and punishments' are the ways to govern the army, otherwise it is impossible to train an elite division.
In addition, I would like to emphasize here that the "Secrecy Regulations" are not just for the 'Wyvern Pioneer Battalion' or a department of the Military Department, it is for all members of the team. It binds not only the locals, but also us travelers. As the leader of this team, we must take the lead in terms of confidentiality. You must be cautious in your words and deeds, and when you come into contact with locals, you must keep a certain distance and never get too close to each other. Especially when dealing with locals with ulterior motives, it is necessary to be more cautious and cautious. After speaking, Wang Kunjun glanced at Fan Wucheng, who was sitting not far away, seemingly casually.
Because Wang Kunjun's move was very casual and natural, the other brothers didn't care about him whether they noticed it or not. But Fan Wucheng, who was watched, not only noticed this look, but after being stunned for a moment, he immediately understood what Wang Kunjun meant by looking at him. Therefore, knowing that he was wrong, he lowered his head knowingly.
Seeing that Fan Wucheng had obviously realized his mistake, Wang Kunjun did not publish the information about Fan Wucheng's improper behavior during his work in Youzhou, which Liang Ziyue obtained incidentally during the investigation of the leak, which coincided with the situation that Zhao Dawei provided about Fan Wucheng and Feng Cheng being too close, and published the materials about Fan Wucheng's improper behavior during his work in Youzhou, which could be regarded as saving some face for Fan Wucheng in front of all the brothers.
After some presentations by Wang Kunjun and Zhang Weixin, the brothers present reached a consensus on the handling of the leaked secrets and agreed to implement the opinions put forward by the committee.
As the brothers reached an agreement on this matter, the meeting also smoothly entered the fourth topic - to discuss the proposal proposed by the committee on adjusting the security system of the team-related industries and forming an independent industrial security team. ,
This topic is actually a continuation of the previous one, and to put it in layman's terms, it is to hand over the task of watching the various industries of the team, mainly the Qinglou industry, which was originally managed by the "Flying Dragon Pioneer Battalion", to the newly formed and professional security team.
Explaining the reasons for the committee's proposal, Zhang Weixin said: "Although the Ma Dahe leak has not had a serious impact on the team so far, it has exposed the shortcomings of the soldiers of the 'Flying Dragon Pioneer Battalion' who also serve as the security guard of the Qinglou industry.
On the one hand, the soldiers of the 'Wyvern Pioneer Battalion' have very close contact with us traversers, especially those veterans, who know much more about us than other latecomers. Let them have long-term contact with those guys and girls in the Qinglou, and it is easier to inadvertently leak some things that should not be known by outsiders. If the other party has ulterior motives, then the possibility of leaking secrets or even secrets is even greater.
On the other hand, as a place for recreation and entertainment, the composition of people who go there is extremely complex, and there are three religions and nine streams. Among them, I am afraid that there are many people who have plans for our team and hope to open a breakthrough in these soldiers. Moreover, the Qinglou itself is a super big dye vat, and if you stay there for a long time, it is easy to be affected by this kind of drunken life. In that case, these soldiers will not only lose their fighting spirit, but will also be more likely to be used and lured by people with ulterior motives.
It was with these drawbacks in mind that the committee finally put forward this proposal after many discussions with several committee members and many times of communication with several brothers from the Ministry of Security. That is, a new security team will be formed within the security department system, which will be responsible for the security work of team industries such as Qinglou full-time, and to put it bluntly, it is responsible for the work of 'watching the scene'. After the 'Flying Dragon Pioneer Battalion' completed its security tasks for July, August, and September, it was all re-established and no longer participated in similar work. In the future, as a regular armed force in the hands of the team, Liliang will only be responsible for external operations and the protection of the core base of 'Liangyuan'. ”
For this suggestion, the brothers attending the meeting expressed their support. Rather than opposing this proposal, which actually reduced his powers, several brothers in the Ministry of Military Affairs raised their hands in favor of it. Because in their opinion, this kind of work of being a thug and watching the scene for the Qinglou should not be the work of these well-trained and well-equipped soldiers of the "Flying Dragon Pioneer Battalion". As the direct commanders of these soldiers, they know very well that the soldiers who have participated in the "watching the field" mission are much behind the soldiers who have not participated in this kind of mission, both in terms of willpower and combat quality. To put it mildly, after three months in the Qinglou, the quality of these soldiers is not much better than that of new recruits. Every time they came back from a mission, Qian Yuanshan and others had to "reinvent the furnace" for these soldiers like training recruits.
Even the direct stakeholders of the Ministry of Military Affairs expressed their support, and the other brothers had no reason to oppose it, and it was only natural that the committee's bill was passed.
According to this bill, this new security team was named the security team, which was subordinate to the Ministry of Security and was directly led by Xu Shaoan, with Yang Xin and Wang Feng as their deputies. During Xu Shao'an's absence, Yang Xin temporarily acted as the commander-in-chief of the security team - according to the original appointment, Yang Xin belonged to Wang Feng's leadership. However, due to the fact that Xu Shaoan is not in Youzhou at this stage, and Yang Xinping, as his agent, is usually stationed in "Jingyuan", he has not only broken away from Wang Feng's leadership, but has also become Wang Feng's boss, so it is appropriate to appoint him as the acting commander of the security team.
The size of the security team was initially set at a small team, with a number of about 50. In the future, with the development of the team industry, it can be increased or decreased at any time according to actual needs.
The security team is mainly composed of men from non-core industries of the team, workers, and ordinary tenants. All personnel are vetted by the Ministry of Intelligence and trained by the Ministry of Security before they are officially inducted. Its members are armed only with clubs and a small number of cold weapons such as knives and guns, and are not equipped with any firearms.
The security team will have a separate station, and at present, Jihua will initially build a new base near the "Jingyuan" for the training and living of the security team members.
Except in the case of an unusually urgent situation, the security team is not allowed to operate in conjunction with the "Wyvern Pioneer Battalion".
In addition, for a small number of security team members who perform very well and meet the requirements in all aspects, after strict review, they can be recommended by the Ministry of Security to join the "Flying Dragon Pioneer Battalion" and become a real warrior. However, this is a one-way movement, and the reverse is not allowed - the soldiers of the "Wyvern Pioneer Battalion" are paid quite well, and none of the soldiers of the "Wyvern Pioneer Battalion" are willing to move backwards to the security team unless they are punished.
With the passage of the bill on the formation of a security team, the enlarged meeting of the committee has come to an end. Except for the brothers who received the assignment and had to communicate with the committee as necessary, the minds of the other participants had all turned to the celebration banquet in the evening, ready to have a good time at that time.
