The war has not yet begun, and even the plan has not been completely finalized. The intelligence agencies of both sides are already fighting desperately.
In the Binghan Empire's embassy in the Tang Empire, a military attache met with several businessmen from the Binghan Empire in the basement.
The other party brought orders from high-level officials in the empire. Because communications were no longer secure, they sent the passwords directly.
There is no way, sometimes the information passed down by word of mouth is the information that is least likely to be intercepted. Sometimes the information brought out with the brain will never be successfully blocked.
"Recently, the number of people from the Tang Dynasty applying to travel to our country has increased. This phenomenon is not normal. I have already started to check, but the other party did it very covertly. For a while, we were not sure what this meant." A dwarf official sat at the table. On one side, he introduced worriedly to several bosses disguised as businessmen.
"Are you sure this is an abnormal phenomenon?" A senior official from the Ice Empire intelligence department disguised as a businessman asked with a frown.
The dwarf intelligence officer who had been working in the Tang Empire shook his head and expressed his opinion: "I'm not even sure. The number of the other party has increased very slowly, but compared to last year, it has indeed increased a bit."
"Is it possible that this is a normal increase? People in the Tang Dynasty are very rich, and going abroad is not a difficult thing for them." The official questioned again.
The intelligence officer continued to shake his head and throw away all the blame: "I can't say, but I think there is something wrong here. More than 4,000 people went to our country. This was very abnormal in the past."
What he said makes sense, but unfortunately there is no actual evidence to support it: "Our economy is not as good as that of the Tang people. Even the food we eat there is not as good. They are so enthusiastic about going to our country. I always feel that this is abnormal."
"What else?" Knowing that there would be no results from this kind of investigation, the senior official looked at the embassy attaché on the other side.
The embassy attaché began to talk about the intelligence they had: "We are working hard to investigate the location of the main force of the Tang Dynasty's navy. Dorne's intelligence is that some of the opponent's warships have been transferred away, and the power to attack the Dorne coastline has indeed been weakened. .”
"Our spies in Dorne also corroborated this matter." The leading official nodded and agreed with this statement.
Their spies in Dorne confirmed the fact that the intensity of the Tang army's attack on Dorne had weakened. There seemed to be no need for the Dorne side to lie about this. The Dorne side should know that their little thing could not be hidden from anyone.
The military attache continued: "Now there is a saying that those aircraft carriers and battleships are all undergoing modernization and modification at Longdao."
"This is an explanation." The senior official continued to agree.
"This is the photo in question." The military attaché said as he took out a blurry black and white photo from his pocket: "Our people risked their lives to get a photo like this. This is a ship with a flight deck. It should be an aircraft carrier."
The photo is blurry and quite far away. This is a new warship being outfitted in the port. It has a very long bridge and a flat flight deck can be identified.
The remaining part is blocked by high-rise buildings, and due to the viewing angle, it is difficult to see clearly. However, it is indeed different from the Tang aircraft carrier, which has already exposed part of its appearance and has been partially photographed by many national intelligence agents.
Therefore, the military attache said angrily: "But compared to the aircraft carrier docked at Linshui Port... its bridge is too big. We have no way to judge the tonnage of this ship. This may be a new aircraft carrier of the Tang Army. I
I and several technicians speculated that it has a displacement of at least 30,000 tons, which is larger than our aircraft carrier."
"Or some other ship... There is no way to be sure, but what is certain is that the Tang people are building more ships, and the tonnage is very huge." After he finished speaking, he stopped and waited for the leading officials.
Take a stand.
The official held his chin and commented: "It sounds really worrying. Is there any way to get more detailed information?"
Before the military attaché could speak, the intelligence officer on the side wailed: "Sir, are you kidding? The other party is the Imperial Security Bureau! If we make any big move here, the other party's nose will smell it."
Only they themselves know how many people they lost. Those damn eagle dogs of the Imperial Security Bureau are simply beasts! They are all man-eating demons!
As he spoke, he opened his palm and held a small broken object in front of everyone: "We didn't even dare to use the phone upstairs. Last time we found a wiretapping device on a phone.
Weird device.”
There are similar gadgets in various countries, so the leading dwarf official immediately guessed what the thing was: "A listening device?"
"It should be, but it is much smaller than the similar device we used, and the structure inside is too complicated... Our people have analyzed it and found that there is indeed a 'microphone' structure, but it is just too far ahead of us technically.
"More." The intelligence officer said, and placed a pile of gadgets that together were smaller than a fingernail on the table.
Everyone stood up and gathered around the device, looking down at this complicated thing that seemed to be alien technology.
The intelligence officer continued: "That's why we have the meeting here, because we are not sure whether the other party can eavesdrop in the rooms above... Only here, we built it ourselves, and we can ensure safety."
Sighing, the official from the Ice Empire intelligence department who came to supervise the battle in person brought the topic back and said: "The people above suspect that the Tang Empire is preparing to attack our Ice Empire, so I ask you to do your best.
Find out the information about this..."
"Find a way to find out the specific time of their operation and the size of the army they invested..." After he finished speaking, he looked at a few of his subordinates who didn't look very good-looking.
The military attache promised: "We will do our best. However, due to the problem of the communication code being deciphered, we lost too many manpower. Most of the lurkers were exposed, and many people were forced to leave the Tang Kingdom..."
But after agreeing, he continued to complain: "The entire organization's structure has been destroyed, and only some extremely vigilant single-line secret agents are still working. When will they be able to send back intelligence, and what kind of intelligence will be sent back?
We even have no way of finding out whether it is the intelligence they sent back."
The leading official who also knew everyone's difficulties could only comfort a group of people: "You just need to work hard. As for whether you can succeed or how much you can succeed... it doesn't matter. Just like in the past, everyone knows your difficulties and the Tang Empire.
How powerful is the security bureau? So...just try your best."
