Xu Kai's positive performance makes it impossible to doubt him, but others don't have such good luck.

After arresting Wang Che, Zhu Fei, and Zhou Ji, Zhang Zhao and others struck again, arrested several small warlords, and divided their armies and territories.

This put everyone in danger for the warlords, fearing that they would be the next unlucky guys, so the number of people secretly contacting the Colony and the Alliance began to increase.

The intelligence department of the Federation has received a lot of information from different channels, and many warlords are trying to get in touch with the Union through various connections, hoping to secretly take refuge in the alliance.

As for whether to accept the surrender of these warlords, the intelligence department did not dare to make decisions on its own, but only reported the situation to Liu Yi and asked Liu Yi to make a ruling.

To this end, Liu Yi held a special high-level meeting to discuss this matter with everyone.

The military people led by Feng Kailong naturally welcomed this matter, and the more people the enemy took refuge in, the weaker the opponent they faced on the battlefield.

However, the administrative departments dominated by He Yan and Ye Na did not agree with this matter, they were thinking about the post-war problem, the war was important, but how to deal with these warlords after the war was a difficult problem.

Through the video, He Yan said to the people attending the meeting: "Although it is easy to accept the surrender of these people now, and it is also very helpful for the victory of the war, have you ever thought about how to deal with these people after the war?" ”

Everyone looked at each other, but no one spoke, these issues are rarely considered by the military, after all, this is the work of the executive department, and it is not the turn of the army to worry.

Seeing that no one could answer this question, He Yan continued: "If there are too many warlords who have taken refuge in them, the post-war resettlement will be a big problem, and if these armies are directly disbanded, I am afraid it will cause a lot of social problems, and if it is not done well, it will cause civil strife." But if the armies of these warlords are kept, they may get into trouble again at some point. ”

"So what does Lord He think should be done?" Someone asked.

"I think we should be cautious about these people who want to surrender, it is best to conduct a detailed investigation of them to determine whether they really want to surrender, and we should also screen the bad things they have done before, and some of the most heinous crimes will never accept their surrender!" He Yan said clearly.

After listening to He Yan's opinion, everyone turned their heads to look at the people in the intelligence department.

Zhuang Jun, the person in charge of the intelligence department, said helplessly: "I'm afraid this is very difficult to do in a short period of time, and it is definitely not possible to complete the investigation and screening of these people's past in one or two days, and it will take at least one or two years to complete." ”

Song Xiao, the commander of the Third Fleet, said: "This is the time of war, I think these things can be temporarily taken into power, first accept their surrender, and then conduct a detailed investigation after the war is over. ”

"I don't think so, war and post-war are the same game of chess, focusing only on the war in front of you, regardless of the aftermath, and then it will be much more difficult to deal with civil strife than now." He Yan said without giving in.

The faces of everyone in the military became a little ugly, and the admiral of the Fourth Fleet, Qiao Zheng, said loudly: "If they come over and make some trouble, it will be good to beat them up again when the time comes, why bother looking forward and backward like this, I don't believe how these people dare to do anything!" ”

Feng Kailong saw that the atmosphere was a little tense, and glared at Qiao Zheng fiercely, Qiao Zheng shrunk his neck and didn't dare to say anything more.

"I think we can make a simple distinction between these people first, if you can accept it, you will accept it first, and if you can't accept it, you will immediately reject it, so that you can take care of both aspects?" Feng Kailong played a round game.

Liu Yi asked, "How does the commander-in-chief think it should be distinguished?" What are the criteria? ”

"This ......" Feng Kailong was suddenly stopped by Liu Yi, in fact, he didn't think about how to distinguish these warlords.

"I've got a solution, let's see if it works?" Zhuang Jun said: "I think we can get them to sign an agreement first, so that they can clearly promise that they will disband the army on their own once the war is over." If they can, we can keep them safe and fit in the right way. If they are not willing to sign this agreement, it means that they are not sincere. ”

"This seems to be a good idea, I think I can try it." Someone was quick to agree.

Everyone whispered for a while, and finally looked at He Yan, whether this method can work or not, the key depends on He Yan's attitude.

He Yan thought for a while, and finally nodded: "I think you can try, but you must write the terms clearly, so that someone will not take advantage of the loopholes in the future." In addition, I suggest that this agreement must be signed by the warlord leaders themselves, so that they will be forced not to renege, and if they do, we will make it public. ”

"Well, this will indeed restrain them, and if they go back on their word, we will have the means to sanction them."

At this time, it was Liu Yi's turn to make a statement, and I saw that Liu Yi's face did not smile, but frowned, as if he was worried about something.

The others didn't dare to speak, only Feng Kailong dared to ask Liu Yi directly, "My lord, do you think this method is feasible?" Feng Kailong asked.

Liu Yi thought for a while and said, "The solution is good, but I'm worried, what if there are cheaters among these people?" Assuming that some people are ordered to surrender, it is difficult to threaten them even if there is such an agreement, after all, they themselves know what is going on, but we do not know. ”

Liu Yi's words made everyone fall into deep thought, and Feng Kailong said: "What do you mean by your lordship, don't we accept any of the people who surrender to Cheng?" ”

"It's not ......" Liu Yi shook his head and said: "If you don't accept them all, I'm afraid that they will be forced to resist to the end, and the war will be even more tragic at that time." ”

Everyone saw that Liu Yi's attitude was very vague, and they didn't know what to say, and no one dared to speak for a long time.

I have to say that the intelligence leader Zhuang Jun's brain is good, and at this time, I heard him say: "In fact, we can learn from the method of dealing with Xu Kai, not only to let them sign an agreement, but also to let them confess the property they have purchased privately, so that they should not dare to surrender, right?" ”

"What if they only give a partial account? Or simply say that there is no property in private...... "someone asked.

"Then let them confess their family relationships together, I think to this extent, no one should dare to risk all their wealth and relatives to cheat." Zhuang Jun said: "Although they may still hide it, if they hide it too much, we can still see it, and they must know it themselves." ”

Hearing this, Ye Na added: "I think it would be better to ask the bank to do a favor, and let the bank help check whether what they have told is true or not." Didn't those banks always want to repair relations with us? I think the bank will take this opportunity to do well. ”

Everyone laughed when they heard this, and they applauded Ye Na's suggestion.

In the past few years, the relationship between the bank and the Union has been strained, resulting in a period of time that the economic development of the Union has been subject to a lot of resistance.

Fortunately, the Union gritted its teeth and persevered, never bowed to the banks and military enterprises, and did not let itself become the stick of the banks and military enterprises.

This time, the Colonization and Security Federation has made great progress in attacking the imperial capital, and seeing that the possibility of victory is getting bigger and bigger, the bank gang finally couldn't sit still and came to show favor to the Colonization and Security Alliance.

Ye Na has been in charge of this work, so she knows the faces of these banks best, and it is a good time to take advantage of the banks' eagerness to make overtures and ask the banks to help investigate the status of the warlords' assets.

At this time, everyone's thinking gradually became active, and various suggestions came up, and finally they were summed up into many very harsh conditions, and if these warlords wanted to secretly surrender, they had to meet all the conditions, otherwise they would be regarded as lacking sincerity.

After seeing so many specific terms, Liu Yi finally nodded and said: "Okay, since there are so many restrictions, I think those who cheat should not dare to try it easily, so let's try it according to this method first." ”

After the meeting, the relevant departments immediately took action, first drawing up a sample agreement, and then handing it over to Feng Kailong and Liu Yi for approval.

He Yan and Ye Na were not idle, they gathered representatives of various big banks together and asked them to help investigate the warlord's assets.

These banks are hoping to repair relations with the Colonization and Security Alliance, and naturally they are full of consent to such a request, although this is against the consistent principles of the banks, but now that the Colonization and Security Alliance's capture of the imperial capital has become the general trend, who cares whether those warlord leaders are happy or not.

A few days later, everything was ready, and the intelligence services began to secretly make contact with warlords who wanted to defect.

At first, these warlords still wanted to raise their own value, they thought that if they chose to surrender before the war, the Colonists and Allied Union would definitely attach great importance to it, and maybe they would offer good preferential conditions.

Unexpectedly, the Colonization and Allied Union took out a sample of the proposed agreement, and the conditions on it were both many and harsh, which directly frightened many warlords into retreating.

The warlords had come with hope, but instead of giving them any special preferential treatment, the conditions offered by the Union required them to give them a clear account of their details, as if they were criminals.

Most of those who said they wanted to surrender immediately said that they would not continue the talks, and only a very small number said that they would seriously consider it and wait for them to think about it before replying.

After this result was reported to Liu Yi, Liu Yi was not surprised at all, in fact, most of these warlords were opportunists, and whoever offered favorable conditions would follow him. Today they can surrender, tomorrow or they will betray, so Liu Yi has always maintained a cautious attitude towards this matter.
