Three days later, Fang Wen and Fang Ermei appeared in Baizhang City. As soon as the mule cart they were riding in reached the gate, several people greeted them and asked them to follow. Fang Wen saw that the comer was not good, so he shouted loudly all the way, and Fang Ermei also lay on the ground. The men unceremoniously held them up, gagged them again, and led them into the city. Seeing that the Thunderbolt soldiers guarding in front of the pass did not pay attention to their calls for help, Fang Wen knew that something was wrong, and he knew that these people must have a big background.

It was the personnel of the Thunderbolt Army's counter-espionage company who took away Fang Wen and Fang Ermei. They took the two to a small courtyard in the city, where they were interrogated in two separate rooms. It's just that these two people are extremely hard-mouthed, either asking Niu and answering horses or looking left to talk about him, especially Second Sister Fang simply pretending to be crazy and stupid. This made the soldiers of the interrogating counterintelligence company extremely annoyed, and they simply directly sentenced Fang Wen, but Fang Wen was still silent. Second Sister Fang heard Fang Wen's pig-like howl, her face was pale with fright, but her mouth was stiff. She claimed that she was a woman from a good family, and she would definitely report to the official if she suffered such an unwarranted disaster, and even went to Ouyang Xuan to cry out for injustice.

Seeing that these two people were so stubborn, the interrogators became more and more annoyed, increased Fang Wen's torture, and sent a few stout village women to strip Fang Ermei's clothes to the ground. The reason why Fang Wen and Fang Ermei refused to confess without fear was because they hid the grenade parts in their waist, abdomen, chest and other close places, thinking that they would not be discovered. Faced with the parts found such as mercury, gunpowder, and turtle-like iron shells, these two people naturally could not deny it. "I knew this was the case, why bother in the first place", at this time, Fang Wen was already covered in bruises, and he suffered a lot of torture in vain.

In fact, the anti-espionage company noticed them. Under the rule of the Thunderbolts, although no one died of hunger, food was still extremely precious, and bootlegging was not allowed. The Ministry of Industry does have a distillery, but it is for the purpose of refining alcohol for wound disinfection, and it will not be sold at all. Fang Wen and his wife's restaurant not only have meat every now and then, but also sell wine privately. Meat is precious but not a rare thing, but it takes a lot of tricks to get it. At first, the Dayi officials thought that these wines came from the distillery, but as soon as they found out that they were from Mingshan County, they quietly reported the anti-espionage company.

In further investigation, the counterintelligence company found that the two people claimed to be from Meizhou, but no one knew them among the Meizhou refugees who came with them. The anti-spy company followed the clues of the wine to the famous mountain for an unannounced visit, and found that Fang Wen originally worked in the Yamen of Cao Zhizhou, and the two were originally husband and wife but pretended to be brother and sister, which was really abnormal. And the situation that Wu Daya did not return at night was also known by the anti-spy company, and after comprehensive research and judgment of the situation, it was concluded that there must be something strange about these two people. The Perak Arsenal is extremely strictly managed, and it is not allowed to go out without asking for leave. Wu Daya's non-return at night had already aroused the vigilance of the Arsenal Security Department, but the counter-spy company wanted to put a long line to catch big fish, and did not take measures against Wu Daya.

The two brothers and sisters of the Fang family suddenly said goodbye, which made Wu Daya panic. The arsenal often conducts secrecy education and warning education, and he knows what it means to steal grenade parts without permission. He was originally going to enjoy Fang Ermei's body again, so he assembled the parts into grenades and brought them back to the arsenal. In the teahouse's storyteller, Ouyang Xuan is a person with great wisdom, and he often uses his plans in the face of the enemy's tactics, and plays the enemy around, which makes Wu Daya extremely admired. He had already seen through Fang Wen and Second Sister Fang's beauty scheme, but he was really greedy for Second Sister Fang's body, so he wanted to learn from Ouyang Xuan to eat the bait and spit out the hook, and make a plan. He was sure that the Fang siblings would not be able to assemble grenades, and after he installed them, he would use the excuse of being explosive and not give them the grenades. How do you know that the brothers and sisters of the Fang family did not play their cards according to common sense at all, and directly took the spare parts and ran away.

After thinking about it, Wu Daya still reported the situation to the arsenal management department. Although this means that he will spend the rest of his life in the dark and cold mines, it is much better than losing his head, and it is much better than fleeing. It's good to be alive in these troubled times, and besides, being a miner can at least have enough to eat. In fact, before Wu Daya surrendered, the anti-spy company had already learned about Fang Wen and the escape. During this time, Wu Daya frequently went out and did not return at night, which made the anti-spy company feel that the time was ripe to close the net, and he also sent people to monitor near the restaurant, so he naturally knew the whereabouts of these two people.

Fang Ermei was a female streamer, and her walking speed was too slow, so Fang Wen hired a mule cart to go to Baizhang City. This is not a means of transportation that ordinary people can take, and it also proves from the side that the two are by no means ordinary people. It's just that the anti-spy company did not move on the road, but waited for the mule cart to arrive at Baizhang Pass before arresting the two people, the purpose of which was to tell their masters through the spies of various forces hidden in the city: We are all clear about the unsightly things you have seen in the territory of the Perak Army.

It is not only spies but also killers and saboteurs sent to the Perak military area by various forces. The Thunderbolts put to death those they caught, and they hung their heads on the most heinous crimes. For the handling of spies by various forces, the Thunderbolts are still different. Once a Mongolian spy is caught, there is only one thing to do, and that is to be executed. Spies of other forces were dealt with according to their degree of harm, ranging from hard labor to death. Fang Wen and Fang Ermei's sentences were both 20 years of hard labor, Fang Wen went to mining, and Fang Ermei went to the sulfuric acid factory. In fact, even if they brought back the grenade parts, Yazhou would not be able to make them. The core technology of this kind of grenade is the detonation method, which is the friction between copper wire and glass to produce static electricity to detonate thunder mercury, and then the thunder mercury detonates gunpowder. To understand this technology thoroughly, it requires a systematic knowledge, and to manufacture it, it requires a systematic industrial base. Unless there is a large defection of technicians from various industries under the Thunderbolt Army, there is no way to make new weapons equipped with the Thunderbolt Army, and even if they can be imitated, the effect is not satisfactory.

The Thunderbolts also sent hundreds of spies to various sides, posing as merchants, refugees, monks, and even new annexes, with different missions. There are those who spy on economic, commercial, and technical intelligence, and there are those who seek out copper, fire, and other mineral resources that the Perak Army urgently needs, and even more are those who spy on political and military intelligence. The caravan spies focused on collecting commercial intelligence and information on mineral resources, the staff spies focused on political, economic, and technical intelligence, and Dong Hu's internal guard brigade focused on military reconnaissance and sabotage activities such as assassination and arson.

The reason why Ouyang Xuan wanted to separate the intelligence system was that he was worried that the intelligence would be highly concentrated in one department, which would cause one family to dominate. After all, intelligence means information superiority. Although the various departments of the Perak Army do not have bureaucratic habits at present, it cannot be ruled out that in the future there will be a bureaucratic style and alienation of power, and even a situation in which power is too great and difficult to control. On the other hand, it is also because of the different occupations engaged in by spies, their thinking will be solidified to different degrees, and their sensitivity to all aspects of information will also be different. Small-scale anomalous military movements are unlikely to alert caravan intelligence officers, while scouts may be unaware of mineral resource information. Some time ago, the Mongol army was ambushed at the Widow's Cliff in Maozhou, and the Perak officers and soldiers, including Huang Dagen, were not alert to the formation of the dammed lake, but Yu Zhu, who had assisted Li Shuang in managing government affairs, sensed that the breach of the embankment would have a major impact on the production of the Perak military area.
