Li Qingyang's heart sank when he heard this, and his luggage was indeed carrying a secret official document, which was written by the commander of the Nanzhen Fusi Department, which explained Li Qingyang's identity and the purpose of this operation, and simply put, it was the certificate for Li Qingyang to mobilize the Jinyi Guard system to cooperate after he went south. The reason why this official document is important is because it contains such a very clear statement as "investigating and prosecuting the Haihan Rebellion Party", even if Li Qingyang wants to clear his name, there is no way to wash it.

Sure enough, Chen Yixin asked the people to go out first, and then said slowly: "We spent money and time, manpower and material resources to help the victims of the disaster for the imperial court, quell the bandits, and develop trade, but in the end we got the charge of disorderly parties? Can Li Baihu tell me what the truth is?"

Li Qingyang defended: "Of course, there are some misunderstandings in the middle, and after the next investigation, I should clear up your grievances." ”

"I'm afraid that what you think is different from what you say, all you think about is how to fabricate charges so that we can wipe out all of us!" Of course, Chen Yixin would not believe Li Qingyang's statement, after all, the other party is a professional spy, and the credibility of what he said must at least be discounted first.

Li Qingyang wanted to continue arguing, but Chen Yixin had already raised his hand to stop her: "You don't need to explain, instead of arguing about this issue, it is better to show your sincerity first and tell me how your operation was arranged, and is there anyone else who plans to sneak into Sanya to investigate us like you?"

Li Qingyang didn't know the situation of the other companions, so naturally he wouldn't answer Chen Yixin's question, so he was silent at the moment.

Chen Yixin saw that he was not cooperative, but he was not angry because of this, and continued: "If you don't cooperate, you will naturally suffer later." When the time comes, you will still tell the truth after you have endured the hardships, so why bother? Don't you say it, your companions, can they grit their teeth and hold on like you?"

Li Qingyang snorted and said: "As an official of the imperial court, he should serve the country, how can he succumb to Yu Er and other obscene authority!"

Chen Yixin shook his head and said: "You are really stupid and loyal! Think about it, even if you really go to Sanya, you will make up a bunch of charges for us, how can this matter be solved in the end? Our Haihan militia already has thousands of heavily armed soldiers, can you rely on you Jinyi Wei to solve it?"

Li Qingyang argued: "I have a million army ...... the Ming Dynasty."

"Yes, you have an army of one million, but how many of them can really go to the battlefield to fight?" Chen Yixin interrupted unceremoniously: "In the past few years, the Ming official army has fought with wild boar skins in the northeast and quelled the rebellion in the southwest. Do you know how big the business between us and the Ming is? Do you know how many people's livelihoods are related to these businesses? You think you are serving the country, but do you think about how many people you will kill if you do this?"

"Hmph, these are just your words!" Li Qingyang's mouth was still stiff, but he was already a little apprehensive in his heart. It seems that although these Haihan people settled on the remote island of Qiongzhou, the news is not closed at all, and they even know about the war that took place in the far north. And the possibility that Chen Yixin said is not completely unexistent, there are many things where the government and local tycoons collude to seek benefits together, and there are many things all over the country, and under the trend of huge interests, the weight of the imperial court is probably not comparable to the silver of white flowers.

Chen Yixin smiled: "It doesn't matter if you believe me or not, but you can think carefully about why you were arrested as soon as you came." I'm not afraid to sue you, since you entered Guangzhou City, everything you have done has been under our supervision, including your application for the position and taking the boat to come here, all of which we have made in advance!"

"Someone betrayed us!" Li Qingyang immediately understood the meaning of Chen Yixin's words. This can also completely explain why they were found out by the Haihan people when they first arrived in Wanshan Port without revealing obvious flaws. Since the Haihan people had already set a trap in Guangzhou and waited for them, it was natural that someone had informed the Haihan people of the news of their actions before that.

"In Fujian and Guangdong, there are many people who do not want to change the current situation, especially the relationship between our Haihan and the Ming Dynasty. If someone tries to change the status quo, naturally someone will stand up and stop him. Chen Yixin looked at Li Qingyang with a look of pity and said, "So when you received the order to set off in Nanjing, you were already doomed to failure. Even if Nanzhen Fusi sends another ten, a hundred, it will be the same fate. Your current non-cooperation will not affect the overall situation at all, do you understand?"

"This ...... This can't be ......," Li Qingyang was in a trance for a while. Ever since he was inexplicably arrested by the Haihan people in the morning, he has been thinking about whether there were loopholes in his actions after setting off from Nanjing, and what exactly went wrong that led to the revelation of his deeds. However, Chen Yixin's words made him have to face the most cruel truth - it is very likely that the people who betrayed them were people in the official government, and they had a lot of power, and they could have access to the yamen at the level of Nanzhen Fusi.

If Chen Yixin's words are true, then the five of them have undoubtedly become victims of the interest game between the Ming Dynasty and the Haihan people. The only thing that knows where they ended up is the secret whistle of the wine shop in Guangzhou, but in retrospect, it is difficult to determine whether the people at that wine shop can be trusted.

"You're missing now, and no one will be able to find you again. Leaving you and your partner's lives alive is because we think you still have the value of living, if you can't prove your value......" Chen Yixin paused, and said word by word: "Then I can guarantee that you will be able to sacrifice your life for the country soon!"

Chen Yixin stood up and said, "I'll give you half an hour to think about it, if you have anything you want to say, call the doorman outside." If you don't want to say anything, that's okay, because you're only going to be here for one night, and I'll personally send the five of you on your way early tomorrow morning!"

Chen Yixin and Li Dou cross-interrogated the five people, and the information they got also made them greatly relieved, the spies sent by the Nanzhen Fusi were indeed only the five of them, and their task was only to infiltrate reconnaissance and collect intelligence, and there was no sabotage and assassination that the Ministry of Security feared.

However, the leader of these five people, Li Qingyang, who has the most information, did not explain too many things, and only admitted that he was related to the five of them, and as for the issues related to the Yamen of Jinyiwei, he was tight-lipped and did not make any response.

Early the next morning, Li Qingyang, who had been in a drowsy manner all night in the salted fish warehouse, was dragged out. He finally saw his other four companions again a day later, and the others also looked very depressed, but there were no obvious injuries, and they did not appear to have been subjected to severe torture.

"Loosen them first and give them food. Chen Yixin appeared at the scene and said to several brocade guard spies who had not yet come back to their senses: "Eat well, don't stand up, don't talk to each other!"

Li Qingyang raised his hand to signal that he had something to say, and Chen Yixin nodded and said, "You say." ”

"I don't know what you want to do with my brothers?" asked Li Qingyang boldly.

"Eat first, and then send you on your way. Chen Yixin replied casually.

Li Qingyang was excited and was about to get up from the ground: "You said yesterday that you wanted to save our lives......

"Sit down!" The militia behind him kicked Li Qingyang in the crook of the leg, causing him to fall to the ground.

"You're mistaken, I'm really just sending you on your way, not taking your lives. Chen Yixin responded: "Do you think that with your identity, you can just do such a thing, pat your ass and leave? Since you are trying to sneak into Sanya by all means, then I just send you to see it! Seeing is believing, I believe that after you get there, your opinion of us will definitely change!"

Chen Yixin received an order to send the prisoners to Shengli Port, but not as tourists, but to be further interrogated by the Ministry of Security. As for whether these people died in the execution hut of the Ministry of Security or were thrown into a hard labor camp as coolies, it has nothing to do with Chen Yixin.

For the Executive Committee located in Shengli Port, the dispatch of spies to Sanya by the Jinyi Weinan Town Fusi is just a matter that is not too important among the many affairs of the day. After the Ministry of Security informed the Executive Committee that it had wiped out all the people in Wanshan Port, the attention of the Executive Committee was no longer left on this matter. At present, there is a more important matter that requires the full efforts of all the members of the Executive Committee, and that is the construction of the Changhua-Shirok communication line, which has already begun to enter the implementation stage.

In order to ensure that there is sufficient labor to invest in the construction site, the Executive Committee approved a labor quota of 5,000 people for the road construction plan, which is 2,000 more than the initial plan, because this year's immigration situation is very good, after the fall of the South Vietnamese regime, a large number of prisoners of war were traded to Haihan by the Annam court in the form of mortgage military funds, and their places were various large-scale project sites in Qiongnan and Qiongxi.

Transporting thousands of people and all the supplies needed to hundreds of nautical miles away was not an easy task in this era, so the Ministry of Shipping had mobilized most of its cargo ships to participate in the development operation, and outsourced some of the freight tasks to maritime merchants like Zhan Gui.

On June 30, 1629, the tenth day of the fifth month of the second year of Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, Changhua Fishing Port on the west coast of Qiongzhou Island.

Nowadays it is not a good place to call it a fishing port, and more than a dozen trestle bridges have been built along the shore of the small harbour for cargo ships to and from the area. The original fishermen's shacks on the shore have all been demolished, and now a large number of standard boat-shaped houses have been built, including several blue-roofed prefabricated houses unique to Haihan. According to the plan of the Ministry of Construction, it can accommodate nearly 1,000 laborers and armed guards who arrived in the early days.

A large storage area is planned on the east side of the port to store various production tools, building materials and daily necessities that have arrived one after another. To the north of the storage area, laborers had cleared a large area of woodland and built an enclosed settlement here to house the incoming prisoners of war. Naturally, these consumable laborers could not enjoy the same living conditions as naturalized laborers, and their living conditions were much worse, and what the Executive Committee wanted was for them to do more work, and the stations only needed to control the sanitary conditions and prevent the outbreak of large-scale infectious diseases.

Qiao Zhiya put his HK416 rifle on his back and jumped directly from the side of the boat to the trestle. The militia platoon commander who hurriedly ran over stood upright, saluted him and said, "Please instruct the chief!"

Qiao Zhiya raised his hand and returned the military salute, and then instructed the naturalized officer: "All the luggage packed and piled on the deck will be taken down and sent to my residence." Find a few more people and wash the deck. By the way, where is Liu Shanxia now?"

"Report, Chief Liu is now on the construction site about two miles to the east, do you need me to send someone to show the way?" asked the militia platoon commander very earnestly.

"No, I need to take a shower first, it's not been comfortable these days. Qiao Zhiya patted the militia platoon commander on the shoulder and dragged his tired body towards the station.

Qiao Zhiya was armed from the base camp to escort a group of hard laborers this time, but this time the voyage was not too smooth, not long after leaving Shengli Port, before arriving in Yazhou, he encountered a sudden storm at sea. The two sailboats desperately sailed into the Ming Army's water village at the mouth of the Ningyuan River in the south of Yazhou, and finally escaped. Of course, at present, Yacheng Shuizhai has become one of the sub-bases of the Haihan militia navy, and almost all the patrol ships docked in the harbor of the Shuizhai are navy patrol ships - the original sailors and warships have all become the tools of the salt dealer Luo Shengdong to make a fortune, and the place is simply completely vacated for the Haihan patrol ships to be used as a station.

After resting for the night on the side of Yacheng, the two sailing ships that had escaped the storm continued to travel westward, but what they did not expect was that they encountered another storm six hours later, but fortunately their position was very close to the Yingge Sea Salt Field, so they avoided it again without danger. But this time, the sails of one of the ships were destroyed in the storm, and Qiao Zhiya had to let the team stay in Yingge Sea for a day to repair the sails.

By the time the fleet overcame all kinds of difficulties and arrived at Changhua Port, it had already taken two full days longer than the normal voyage. As the head of the fleet, Qiao Zhiya has indeed not had much rest time in the past few days, what he needs most now is to take a shower and then lie down in bed to sleep, as for other things can be talked about later.
