Chen Muyang's words were joking, but more obvious was dissatisfaction, and it was obvious that he had an opinion about the killing of nine people.

Chai Jiangtao also realized that the nine heads had caused a lot of panic in the City of Thieves, from the military division to the helmsman, and then to the captain of the incense lord in the city guard, everyone was in danger.

He repeatedly assured that Ma Hongyuan was only suspected, not convicted, and that there were obvious flaws in the report materials, and he would never kill people without finding out the facts.

However, Chen Muyang did not believe it, and still held on to the killing of the nine people, and made it clear that he would withdraw from the formulation of the Han strategy, and took the initiative to ask to be put in prison, so that he could get rid of suspicion, and in case of an intelligence leak, he did not need to bear any responsibility.

"Master of the Second Army Division, you are really serious, now there is no evidence that you have colluded with the spies, how can I let you be put in prison?" He knew the seriousness of this, if the Second Army Division was imprisoned, it would definitely cause a new round of panic.

Chen Muyang looked at him with very meaningful eyes and said: "Fourth Army Division, it's not that I don't believe you, but the Lord of Thieves' heart is in turmoil, I understand that on the eve of the big war, he will have to bear a lot of pressure, but he can't listen to the wind or the rain! I have no objection to investigating the spies and catching the spies, but we have to find out clearly, let's talk about it, what is the difference between killing people if they are not clear and indiscriminately killing innocents, and it makes the brothers feel cold! Seeing that the Han army is about to be killed, but we can't unite because of fear, how can we resist a strong enemy?"

Chai Jiangtao nodded solemnly and said: "The Second Army's concern is not unreasonable, and I think so too, so I promise you that I will not convict people before there is conclusive evidence, let alone kill innocent people indiscriminately." "The title of the novel + black * rock * cabinet can watch the fastest chapter for free

"It's too late to make amends. Chen Muyang sighed and said, "If you have time, go and appease the hall masters, most of them think that the king of thieves has lost his mind, and the one who suffers is himself." Even if you survive in the end, you will be disappointed in the way the thief king does it, and it is very likely that you will have different intentions. Since you won't let me go to jail, I won't bother you and take my leave. ”

It was not until long after Chen Muyang left that Chai Jiangtao came back to his senses, and he deeply realized that he should not carry out the killing order, and this move was too unsuccessful. Just like Chen Muyang said, if this is done, those who were originally loyal will also be forced to rebel, and there will be a few available generals left at that time, how to compete with the Han?

Arresting Ma Hongyuan was a last resort, because his position was too sensitive, as the first counselor of the Second Army, he had access to the core secrets, and he also participated in the formulation of the strategy for the war against Han, and was responsible for the main part of the work, if he was a spy, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Although the king of thieves did not mention this matter, as his biological brother, Chai Jiangtao knew that the more he didn't know what to say, the more untouchable it was in his heart, why did he jump like thunder when he heard that there was a spy, why wouldn't he kill nine people without thinking, on the surface, he couldn't tolerate the betrayal of the department, but in fact, he was afraid of the leakage of secrets.

To be honest, there are loopholes in the reporting materials against Ma Hongyuan, but he still has to be careful about what he does, arrest people first, and first eliminate the possibility of intelligence leakage.

So even if he was asked to choose again, he would still arrest people without thinking.

The afternoon time was quite calm, Chai Jiangtao stretched his waist, thinking that there should be nothing to happen today, so he went to the back hall to eat with peace of mind.

But just halfway through the meal, someone came to report that someone was asking to see someone outside the door, claiming to report the other.

He put the dishes and chopsticks, simply sorted out his clothes and went to the outer hall, the whistleblower was named Yang Ziyu, who was the helmsman of Xihua in Zhenxi Hall, and reported Ge Zhengliang, the helmsman of Xingping, saying that he was seriously suspected of being a spy.

Chai Jiangtao was taken aback, he was too familiar with the name Ge Zhengliang, that is, at the first meeting he presided over, Ge Zhengliang and Ding Yuanlang proposed a strategy to lure the enemy into depth, which was well received by everyone, and even the king of thieves was full of praise when he heard it, and finally the two of them also participated in the formulation of the strategy.

"Are you sure the report is true?" he asked, frowning.

Yang Ziyu swore and said: "Ge Zhengliang is indeed very suspicious of using his life to ensure that it is true, whether it is from his background or the way he usually behaves in the world, it is very different from those of us, I implore you to arrest him quickly, he is definitely a person with bad intentions." ”

Chai Jiangtao was a little big-headed, and said in a calm tone: "This military division knows, you can go back." ”

Yang Ziyu asked cautiously: "Then ...... I report this?"

"You can rest assured, this military division guarantees with personality and will never let others know. He said with a straight face: "If it is later proven that the reported person is a spy, you will receive a corresponding reward." ”

Yang Ziyu stood up and hugged his fists: "It's a farewell." ”

Chai Jiangtao's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, in the formulation of the strategy against the Han Dynasty, Ge Zhengliang is responsible for the work that Ma Hongyuan is responsible for, Ma Hongyuan has already been arrested, do you want to arrest him?

Before he could make a final decision, someone came to report it again, and this time it was Ding Yuanlang who was reported.

Sending away the whistleblower, he was just about to order the arrest of Ge Zhengliang and Ding Yuanlang, and someone reported that a counselor of the division of the three armed forces was also one of the strategists.

The housekeeper told Chai Jiangtao that more than a dozen carriages had come to the gate one after another, parked in the shadows of the opposite street, and they should all come to report others.

Chai Jiangtao smiled bitterly, it seems that some of them are busy tonight, and they also realize that the calm during the day is only on the surface, and there are many whistleblowers, but they all choose to act at night.

The Black Armor Warriors were constantly dispatched, and in a matter of moments, four helmsmen, a hall master, and six counselors were arrested, and by midnight the number had risen to seventeen.

Among the seventeen people, fourteen were involved in the formulation of the strategy, which made Chai Jiangtao feel terrified, although it was not certain that they were all spies, but there must be a few of them among so many people, even if there was only one, it was possible to leak the information.

He suddenly discovered a very strange phenomenon, among the fourteen people, there were eleven counselors, five of whom belonged to the Second Army Division and six of whom belonged to the Third Army Division.

This is too concentrated, as a division of the Fourth Army, he is also in charge of more than a dozen counselors, why hasn't anyone been reported?

There is also a large army division, he has more than 20 counselors under his command, is there not a single one who is suspected?

It's not normal, it's so abnormal!

This problem plagued him for an entire night, tossing and turning and unable to sleep, so much so that he woke up the next day with severe dark circles under his eyes.

In the Second Army Division's Mansion, Ye Yunyang was having breakfast with Chen Muyang.

Chen Muyang has no appetite, although five of the six hands were reported by his own people, he is still a little bottomless in his heart, if the murder incident of yesterday morning is staged again, it will be a huge loss.

Ye Yunyang looked relaxed and said, "Master, don't worry, they're fine." ”

"Why are you so sure?" asked Chen Muyang.

He put down his chopsticks and said: "Because except for a few guys with no background among the people who have been reported, the rest are all you and the headquarters of the three military divisions, Chai Jiangtao will definitely mutter, the more suspicious he is, the less likely he is to kill." ”

Chen Muyang nodded: "It makes sense! No, why don't we arrange for someone to report Zhuge Hao's hand, the people of the three major military divisions have problems, so it seems normal!"

Ye Yunyang smiled: "We and the army division are well water and not river water, in case we annoy him, it will not be beneficial to our task, so it is better not to move him." ”

"That's right. Chen Muyang picked up the chopsticks and suddenly said: "No! Then why do you want to report the people of the Third Military Division, just because you have a grudge against his son? You are doing it on purpose, right, I and the third people have been reported, and no one dares to provoke the fourth eldest in power, and the eldest has become a bird, isn't it?"

He smiled: "I can't hide anything from the master, you wait and see, the great military master will definitely not let us down." ”

In the Great Army Division's Mansion, Zhuge Haotang was also having breakfast, and Zhuge Yingqi came over and said: "The situation is not good, a total of seventeen people were arrested last night." ”

"Caught so much?" Zhuge Hao put the bowl and asked, "Are there any of our people in it?"

"Nope. Zhuge Yingqi replied.

The old man smiled: "Very good, as long as there is no loss on our side, they can make trouble as much as they like, and it is none of their business to hang high." ”

Zhuge Yingqi shook his head and said: "Think about it again, the current situation is that one of our people has been arrested, and eleven of the seventeen people are counselors, who are subordinate to the Second Army Division and the Third Army Division respectively. ”

Zhuge Haotang put away his smile, and suddenly frowned: "It's not good, this is for us! So many people have been arrested, but they have nothing to do with the Great Army Division, what will everyone think? They will not think that there is no problem with the Great Military Division, but will think that our problem is serious, after all, those who were arrested were all reported, and even the king of thieves will wonder, why is there no one here in Zhuge Haotang who has been reported?"

Zhuge Yingqi smiled bitterly: "That's what I'm worried about, it's strange, why haven't our people been reported?"

Zhuge Haotang frowned and said: "It's Ye Yunyang and Chen Muyang, they are afraid of offending us, so they don't have any manpower for me, but I don't know that this is more likely to be suspected, they are doing bad things with good intentions! No, you should arrange someone to report it immediately, and it is more appropriate to report a few people...... It can't be too little, it can't be too much, then four, the speed must be fast, and it must be done before the king of thieves knows. ”

Zhuge Yingqi left in a hurry, Zhuge Haotang completely lost his appetite, and simply went to the study to wait for news.

An hour and a half later, Zhuge Yingqi returned and told him that everything had been arranged, the four whistleblowers had set off, and the task would be completed within half an hour if nothing else.

Zhuge Hao let out a sigh: "It's so dangerous, I'm almost exposed! It's my carelessness, I thought that I could sit firmly on the Diaoyutai by watching the changes, but I didn't take into account the seriousness of the matter, and no one can stay out of such a big matter as catching a spy." ”

Zhuge Yingqi nodded and said: "That's right, we thought about the problem simply, thinking that the king of thieves was catching big men and spies, and it had nothing to do with us people from Daqin." To put it bluntly, we have the same secret identity as the Han lurkers, and the king of thieves wants a spy, so he doesn't bother to care what the background of the spy is. ”

The old man raised his eyebrows: "No, why do I have a feeling of being fooled...... What went wrong?"

"Fooled, what?" asked Zhuge Yingqi incomprehensibly.

The old man stretched out his hand and patted his head: "I thought about it, let's fall for Ye Yunyang! Hurry, hurry up and stop the four whistleblowers, you can't let them go to the Fourth Army Division's Mansion." ”

Zhuge Yingqi was confused and said, "Why? I'm afraid it's too late, the order I gave them before was to hurry up and act." ”
