Chapter 702 Sending a message
Although the intelligence system of the Intelligence Army has been well established in Nanzhili, ordinary intelligence personnel have no way of knowing about Liu Yi's whereabouts and other issues, including Chen Qiang, who is just a general flag officer in the Intelligence Army
, although he is the general person in charge of Suzhou, his level is not high enough after all. So he only knows that Liu Yi has ended the war in Liaodong and returned to South Zhili, but Chen Qiang has no idea of Liu Yi's current specific location.
Since then, Liu Yi’s whereabouts are only known to officers above the level of Commander Qian of the Intelligence Corps. This is also to prevent Liu Yi from being in trouble suddenly, but no one knows his location. Let officers above Commander Qian always know Liu Yi’s whereabouts.
Once contact with Liu Yi's headquarters is lost, personnel from the intelligence army will immediately go to the place to investigate. This is equivalent to providing Liu Yi and the entire New Army with insurance. What the army fears most is that there is no leader.
Chen Qiang's first task now is to find his superiors immediately and report the matter. After all, what the little boy from Ye Mansion brought was the gold dagger of General Feng Guo. Although this thing is not a token in the army,
But in Chen Qiang's opinion, this thing is much more valuable than the token. It is equivalent to the general's personal token. It means that Chen Qiang is now doing personal things for Liu Yi. This principle applies to all times and all over the world. It is for big leaders.
private
What does the matter mean? It is something that can only be handled by the person the leader trusts the most. And if the matter is handled well, it will be of great benefit to himself. Chen Qiang must handle both public and private matters well.
"Send the pigeon letter to Wusongkou Pier immediately." Chen Qiang wrote the message in pencil on a small piece of paper and put it in the red mailbox. He handed the mailbox to an intelligence soldier and asked him to send the pigeon letter to Wusong immediately.
Port pier. In this
On this point, Chen Qiang still acted according to the regulations. The intelligence military substation in Wusongkou was in charge of Suzhou, and his superior, General Qian, was there, so Chen Qiang still reported to his superiors step by step, and did not
Send the pigeon letter directly to Yingtian Mansion or Taiping Mansion, because from the geographical location, it is obvious that if the pigeon letter is sent to Wusongkou first and then delivered to Yingtian Mansion or Taiping Mansion from Wusongkou, it will definitely take a long detour, but Chen Qiang
must
This must be done. Otherwise, it is a big taboo in the army to report information beyond the level. Unless the superior officer is found to be corrupt and bending the law, or under forced circumstances, there are no special circumstances, and the information must be processed according to the normal process. Fortunately, Suzhou Prefecture
It is very close to Wusongkou. If you send a pigeon message, it will be received at Wusongkou in less than an hour. The pigeon tied a letter tube to its leg, flapped its wings twice, the soldier opened the cage, and the pigeon flew straight into the sky.
Wusongkou.
Commander Qian of the Wusongkou Intelligence Army is currently sorting out information at the dock's office. Although he has already taken the position of Commander Qian, what he should do depends on the classification system of the intelligence army. Some intelligence is naturally at the level of Commander Qian.
Only officers can see it, so the relevant analysis and sorting work can only be done by them personally. This is also the rule set by Liu Jin, don’t
I thought that after becoming a senior officer, I would be able to do nothing all day long. Not only would I not be idle, but I would be busier. The higher the position, the greater the responsibility. Even Liu Jin himself is extremely busy every day. Since the Shangguan personally takes the lead, officers at all levels
Naturally, there is nothing to say, and the intelligence army's salary is generous, much higher than that of the field army, so the soldiers are naturally very enthusiastic.
"Report, sir, a red envelope from Suzhou Prefecture." A soldier from the intelligence army walked into the inner room with the red mailbox he had just received. He knelt down on one knee and reported the report. Mr. Qian was surprised. Suzhou is considered a southern city.
The hinterland of Zhili is located between Taiping Prefecture and Wusongkou. It also has a large number of industries owned by the Huizhou Chamber of Commerce. It can also be regarded as the middle zone of the Qingyi Army's sphere of influence. Such a location is absolutely impossible.
There is a military disaster. The red mailbox has never been received from Suzhou Prefecture since the Wusongkou Intelligence Military Substation was established. Mr. Qian was surprised because he was afraid that there was something missing in his work. Is there something unknown?
Bandits attacked Suzhou Prefecture? Mr. Qian became more and more nervous as he thought about it. If something went wrong, he would not be able to escape the blame. He opened the red mailbox and found that it was Chen Qiang's personal letter. He read it carefully.
After reading it again, I realized that this matter is probably more important than the bandit's attack on Suzhou City. This is a major matter for the general himself. Mr. Qian did not dare to neglect it. He knew that the general visited the Water Transport Yamen in Huai'an a few days ago. This
The intelligence is uniformly released by the main station of Taiping Prefecture, and all the officers of the intelligence army above the Qian Commander in South Zhili know it. So since the general is near Huai'an now, regardless of whether he has already set off, he must have
It was secretly protected by soldiers from the intelligence army. Just send a message to the Huai'an station and ask them to find the general. Mr. Qian sorted out the information, then wrote a simpler letter and sent it to Huai'an immediately. But Huai'an
It is under the command of the intelligence military substation of Yingtianfu, so Mr. Qian only has the right to make suggestions and not to mobilize. Mr. Qian must also write a letter requesting assistance to Yingtianfu at the same time, so that the procedures can be perfected.
The flying speed of homing pigeons is very fast. It only takes half a day for the intelligence from Suzhou Prefecture to be sent to Huai'an Station. The leader of the intelligence army at Huai'an Station is at the same level as Chen Qiang and is also a small flag. Liu Yi arrived in Huai'an a few days ago.
The safety of the general is naturally a top priority, so after Liu Yi entered Huai'an City, the entire intelligence army in Huai'an
The soldiers set up a large number of secret sentries in Huai'an City to protect Liu Yi's safety along the way. Although they had already investigated the possible situations in Huai'an City one by one before, they were not afraid of ten thousand but afraid of the worst. In this way, the intelligence army and
Liu Yi's personal soldiers formed two lines of protection, one visible and one dark, to ensure Liu Yi's safety.
At this time, Liu Yi had already bid farewell to the water transport yamen. He took Gengzi and dozens of soldiers to go to Yangzhou Prefecture by land, and then went to Suzhou Prefecture along the Yangzhou, Zhenjiang, and Changzhou lines. Except for Yangzhou, the rest of the
Liu Yi is already relatively familiar with this city. After all, he is in
He had already passed through the above-mentioned cities on his way to Wusongkou last time, and had some friendship with the local officials. So naturally Liu Yi didn't want to waste time in these places again. However, except for Yangzhou Prefecture, the fireworks descended on Yangzhou in March.
Although it is not yet three o'clock
Month, but it’s coming soon. Yangzhou also has beautiful scenery such as Slender West Lake. Liu Yi happens to be relatively free these days. Why can’t he visit the beautiful scenery of Yangzhou? However, Yangzhou’s territory is very large, and Liu Yi and his party are not very fast.
, arrived after passing Huai’an
Baoying County, which is under Yangzhou, passed Baoying and Gaoyou before arriving at Yangzhou, so Liu Yi was not in a hurry. He happened to pass by Baoying County, so he had dinner in Baoying County and rested for the night. Anyway, they were wearing the same clothes.
There is nothing inconvenient about wearing casual clothes.
Baoying County has two major specialties: crabs from Baoying Lake and lotus roots. However, it is not the season for eating crabs yet. Although there are no crabs to eat, Liu Yi never treats his stomach badly and still enjoys them with the soldiers.
Candied lotus root from Baoying. Tonight in Baoying County
The largest Baoying Restaurant welcomed a large group of distinguished guests. The team of about 60 people actually booked the entire lobby on the second floor, allowing Baoying Restaurant to serve whatever good wine and food they had. These people paid in cash.
Silver, very refreshing. And I also asked for more than a dozen guest rooms, which is really big.
Hands-on, Baoying County is just a small county, so I haven’t seen such a big business for a long time. The hotel manager’s smiling face had dense folds, like a chrysanthemum. Although these people are all strong and strong
Man, when I first entered the restaurant, the shopkeeper was afraid that this was
They were a group of strong men, but they all obeyed the rules when I saw them. And although the leader looked tall and mighty, he was very polite and even took a hundred taels of silver and put it on the table. Such generous guests are what any restaurant likes.
Yes, of course we are treated according to the standards of VIPs.
Liu Yi and Gengzi sat at a table, and the rest of the soldiers sat at a table of four, which happened to be table sixteen. Gengzi sent away the waiter who was pouring wine, picked up the jug and poured Liu Yi a glass of wine.
, and then said: "General, although Baoying County is not big, it has a unique scenery. It would be very interesting to go boating on Baoying Lake when the flowers are blooming in spring.
"Liu Yi nodded, "Yes, Jiangnan is good, the scenery is familiar to me before. When the sun rises, the flowers on the river are as red as the fire, and when spring comes, the river is as green as blue. How can we forget about Jiangnan? Bai Juyi of the Tang Dynasty could write such a famous poem through the ages. It can be seen that he is also the poet.
I am impressed by the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan. Think about it, no matter it is Yangzhou, Suzhou, Changzhou, Hangzhou, Nanjing or Taipingfu, any one of them is not a famous city.
Thanks to relying on the Yangtze River and the canal, it took thousands of years of development to become what it is. Therefore, in the eyes of this general, river and sea transportation will be the foundation of the country in the future. Just like France, why is a small country like the Netherlands so short-lived?
The internal energy has become so strong, which is the result of attaching great importance to shipping and developing the navy. If our Qingyi Army wants to achieve greater development, it must
We need to stretch our hands further. If we always stay in the Taipingfu area, there will definitely be no big future. This is why I want to build Wusongkou Terminal. Of course, the entire water transportation is now controlled by our new army.
Here, this is an excellent opportunity given to us by God. If we make good use of it, the development of Qingyi Army will advance by leaps and bounds."
Gengzi seemed to understand what Liu Yi said, but since the general said so, there must be a great truth. In short, the ideas of these officers are very simple, and they will definitely not go wrong by following the general. He is now the general's relative.
