The diligent work of the intelligence department has brought a lot of intelligence to the strategic group led by Liu Yi, and after analysis and sorting, everyone also has a general understanding of the current situation in the imperial capital.

The imperial capital has adopted a complete lockdown since Gao Ban's death, which has completely cut off contact between the imperial capital and the outside world, so many people don't know about the current situation in the imperial capital.

According to intelligence, since the complete blockade of the Unicorn galaxy where the imperial capital is located, the entire empire has completely entered an era of war. Just when the war was raging everywhere, the imperial capital actually did not stop at all, and there was a protracted and tragic war within the galaxy.

Because of Gao Ban's sudden death, his subordinates split into several factions, and at first these people were only engaged in various political battles, but soon evolved into assassinations, sneak attacks and other actions, which eventually led to the outbreak of war.

Due to the unique natural conditions of the Unicorn Galaxy, this galaxy has six planets that can be colonized by humans, and the entire galaxy has a very complete industrial system and technological system, so that the imperial capital can continue to prosper without relying on the outside world.

However, these superior conditions have become a hotbed of war, and several factions each control a part of the army, coupled with the abundant strategic resources accumulated over the years, the war is in full swing and has lasted for several years without interruption.

In the end, the situation evolved into several armies occupying a planet and starting a long-term war confrontation, attacking and killing each other, and turning the imperial capital into a dark mess, which was like hell.

Due to the developed industrial base of the imperial capital, although the war has been fought for several years, there is no sign of stopping, the fleet is finished and new ones are built, and the mecha is constantly being updated, and all kinds of battles have never stopped.

This means that the foundation of the imperial capital is thick enough, and I am afraid that the oil will run out long ago if it were replaced by other colonies, but the war in the imperial capital is still continuing.

Due to the destruction of the war, now the imperial government has been completely abandoned, and those high-ranking officials and nobles in the past have now become idlers who no one cares about, and the real power is those warlords, that is, those subordinates before the high ban.

This information is collected by the intelligence services from various sources, and many of it is provided by smuggling syndicates.

Although the imperial capital has been closed for several years, the smuggling syndicate is like a seamless worm, and there are still various ways to conduct some smuggling transactions with the imperial capital.

In addition, some enterprises also maintain certain contacts with the imperial capital due to their special relationships, but the information learned from these channels is often relatively simple, and there are few comprehensive sources.

The strategy group has conducted a lot of research and discussion around this information, and it can be regarded as a general but relatively vague understanding of the current situation of the imperial capital, but a lot of core information is still difficult to obtain.

At the meeting of the strategy group, Liu Yi said to the others: "The information we have learned so far is still too general, and what is really useful to us is the content related to defense, which is the key to understanding the current defense situation of the imperial capital." ”

Feng Kailong said: "In the past, the defense system of the imperial capital was directly managed by the general headquarters, but now the army of the imperial capital is fragmented, I don't know who is mastering these systems, first of all, we should make this clear." ”

Liu Yi shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it's difficult to figure this out, we haven't placed intelligence personnel in the imperial capital before, so it's difficult to find out these situations in a short period of time." ”

"Can you find someone who knows about the situation in the imperial capital, such as those who often engage in smuggling activities with the imperial capital?" Ye Na asked.

"This may be a way, but it may not be found immediately, and the intelligence services are already trying to figure it out, but they haven't achieved it yet." Liu Yi said helplessly.

"Speaking of which, might as well let me try." Ke Rin on the side suddenly said: "Don't forget, I used to know a lot of people from the underworld, these people and smugglers have always been mixed together, maybe I can find some useful clues." ”

Shangguanqi shook his head and said, "How many years have you left the underworld, who still knows you now?" I think it's better for you to stay here honestly. ”

"Shangguan, don't underestimate people, I was also a famous figure in the Tao back then!" Ke Rin raised his voice and said.

Liu Yi saw that the two were about to quarrel again, and hurriedly interrupted: "Okay, okay, I know about this, and I will send someone to investigate." ”

There is a lot of headache for everyone that there is too little information, and without intelligence, it is impossible to make the right strategic arrangements, and even if the plan is made, it is only on paper.

However, Liu Yi was not so pessimistic, he said to everyone: "In fact, although we do not have exact information on some situations, we can speculate based on various known clues. ”

He Yan frowned and asked, "Can you give an example?" ”

"For example, through the fact that there has been a war in the imperial capital in the past few years, we can infer that there should be no more powerful defensive weapons in the imperial capital than the Houyi cannon now." Liu Yi said.

"How so?" He Yan asked again.

"You can think about it, in the past few years, the imperial capital has been in turmoil, how can you still have the energy to research new super weapons, it would be good if the original one could be kept." Liu Yi said with a smile.

"Makes sense." Everyone nodded.

Ye Na said: "Since the imperial capital is also fighting so hard, maybe the original defense system has long been useless. To maintain the defense system, you can't do it without a strong department to lead it! ”

"That might be true, if the defense system is useless for a long time, wouldn't we be able to easily enter the imperial capital?" Che Kuang said.

Liu Yi shook his head with a smile and said, "This possibility is very small, although the Gao Ban gang is doing nonsense, they are still from the imperial fleet after all, it is impossible not to know the importance of the defense system." If there were no defenses, they would have ransacked the imperial capital and fled to other places with their fleets. ”

Feng Kailong continued: "That's right, with the defense system, the imperial capital can be protected from the intrusion of foreign enemies, and they won't even forget this. ”

"Will it be in the hands of the emperor?" Ke Rin asked coldly.

Feng Kailong immediately denied: "This is impossible, His Majesty the Emperor has long been hollowed out, and there is no real power at all, and these warlords will never let such an important defense system fall into the hands of the Emperor." ”

Ke Rin pursed his lips and said: "This emperor is really useless, the imperial capital is in a mess, he can't manage anything, what else do you want this emperor to do?" ”

"The emperor of the empire is just a symbol, and he didn't have much real power a hundred years ago." Tang Jie couldn't listen anymore and took the initiative to explain to Ke Rin.

"Okay, let's stop talking about these useless things, let's go back to the strategic plan!" Liu Yi said.

"Actually, there's nothing to say, the key to attacking the imperial capital is the defense system, as long as this system can be destroyed, our fleet can enter smoothly. As long as the fleet has access to the system, defeating these warlords is not a big problem. Tang Jie said.

"That's a good point, but how to destroy the defense system of the imperial capital, this is the problem." Liu Yi said.

At this time, Shangguanqi said: "I have an idea, since the defense system of the imperial capital is mainly aimed at the invasion of the fleet, if we send a small number of troops in, we want to destroy those defensive weapons, so that the problem will be solved." ”

"That's a good idea, but we need more intelligence to back it up." Liu Yi commented.

"The premise of this plan is that we have to know where these defensive weapons are, and how many of them are, and if we don't figure them out, we can't actually carry them out." Liu Yi said.

"Speaking of which, it's still a matter of intelligence, I can only supervise them well!" Ke Rin said dissatisfied.

Liu Yi nodded and said, "Maybe the intelligence department should be bolder, and we have to find a way to insert people into it, otherwise we won't be able to get enough and necessary information......

After the meeting, Liu Yi immediately called the main person in charge of the intelligence department and put forward his own ideas and demands to them.

Liu Yi personally gave the order, and the people in the intelligence department did not dare not agree, so the person in charge of the intelligence department immediately promised that he would send the best intelligence personnel to find a way to enter the imperial capital.

The efficiency of the intelligence services soon improved, but at the cost of many intelligence officers stationed in other forces being withdrawn one after another, and all of them were devoted to the imperial capital project.

Soon a piece of news came to Liu Yi, and the intelligence department learned from some smugglers that there was an outpost space station called RN330 on the edge of the Unicorn Galaxy, which was actually the location of various smuggling transactions.

Many smuggling syndicates were trading with smugglers from the Imperial Capital on that space station, and a lot of news was leaking out of that place.

The intelligence department plans to send someone to infiltrate this space station in the guise of smugglers, hoping to learn more information, and also hope to infiltrate the imperial capital through here.

Liu Yi knows a lot about smuggling, and when he was in Baishi Fortress before, he had a lot of dealings with these smuggling groups.

Liu Yi said to the people in the intelligence department: "Pretending to be a smuggler, I'm afraid it will be easy to see through, it's better to do smuggling directly, so as not to show your feet." ”

"Your Excellency, what do you mean...... What is the meaning? ”

Liu Yi smiled: "I have dealt with many smugglers at the border, and there are many doorways here, and pretending to be smugglers can easily be seen through. Therefore, I suggest that you directly recruit a few smuggling groups, and then stuff intelligence personnel into these smuggling groups, and then let these smuggling groups really go to the imperial capital to carry out smuggling activities, so that it will be difficult to be seen. ”

"It turns out that the adult meant this, I understand, and I will do it as the adult wills immediately!"

"You should be flexible and bold, and try whatever you do." Liu Yi said.

"Yes, yes, the adult's criticism is right, and we will pay attention to ...... in the future."
