Poor Family

  Chapter 320 Thousands of clues

Although Wang Gui did not have the power to command 500 soldiers, but Li Yanqing won him the position of the head of the capital, commanding 250 soldiers. When he was promoted to the head of the capital, how could he not let his heart be full of joy, all this could only be achieved with the great help of his friends.

   "Listen to me, boy."

Li Yanqing saw that Wang Gui was getting carried away, so he scolded him: "Your capital is just a dispatcher, and you must pass the provincial martial arts exam to get a real job. Once the war is over and you fail the martial arts exam, your capital will be wiped out." gone."

  Wang Gui sticks out his tongue. Of course he knows that his current capital is only the appointment of the head coach, just a position, and has not yet been registered by the Privy Council.

   "The humble job obeys!"

  Li Yanqing had nothing to do with Wang Gui's hippie smile, so he could only say: "From now on, I want you to practice hard riding and archery, and review military books. You still have half a year, so you should have enough time."

Li Yanqing had planned for Wang Gui. Martial arts test weightlifting, infantry and cavalry archery, and add another art of war. There is no problem for Wang Gui in weightlifting and infantry. As long as he has a foundation in cavalry and archery, it is enough to practice proficiently. The key is the art of war. This is Wang Gui's weak link must be made up for. Li Yanqing thought about it and said: "After recruiting ten soldiers to serve in the army, I will teach them the art of war for a few months at night. You should go to the class together!"

  Wang Gui curled his lips, "Do you think I've been fooling around in martial arts for two years? I have passed the exams in the seven books of martial arts, and my scores are higher than Brother Tang and Lao Niu. It's not bad for me to teach them."

"shut up!"

   Li Yanqing scolded, Wang Gui didn't dare to say anything, and muttered for a long time: "You let me go to the class and I will go! Is it necessary to be so fierce?"

   "I'm doing it for your own good. You kid has been relying on luck. You don't have that much luck. You should review it."

"I see!"

  At this time, Li Yanqing turned his head and saw a young general standing at the door of the big tent. He was not very old, in his early twenties at most, and he was not tall, but he was very strong and had a shrewd face.

"Who are you-"

  The young general stepped forward quickly, knelt down on one knee and said, "Young general Luo Ping sees the commander, and the commander asked me to report to the commander."

  Li Yanqing immediately understood that this was another leader on the same level as Wang Gui, and he quickly laughed and said, "General Luo, please get up!"

Wang Gui quietly compared his height with him at the side, and saw that he was only at the tip of his nose, half a head shorter than himself, and his physique was not as strong as his. What?"

   "I was originally the head of the Marshal's personal army, but I was just promoted to be the head of the capital."

  Wang Gui was even more relieved. It turned out that the opponent was also promoted to the leader of the team, just like himself.

  Li Yanqing knew that this was a deliberate arrangement by Shuai to let Luo Ping and Wang Gui be promoted at the same time, so that it was easier for him to manage.

   "Both heads, please sit down!"

Li Yanqing asked the two to sit down, and asked Yang Liang to recruit the two staff officers who joined the army. , These two people are rigorous in thinking, shrewd and capable. Yesterday, they and Li Yanqing went to the prefectural school to accept the registration.

Li Yanqing asked everyone to introduce themselves again, and then said with a smile: "From today onwards, the five of us will be responsible for the establishment of the Intelligence Division of the Hedong Army. We are called the Staff Account to the outside world, and the Intelligence Division to the inside. In fact, they are all the same thing. .

Next, we need to recruit ten outstanding students from the Taiyuan Prefecture School, and at the same time, we need to select five hundred elite soldiers from the army. In addition, we need two internal affairs officers to join the army, and then we need supplies. The commander assigned me eighty tents , Thirty war horses were sent from Wulongzhai. Originally, I planned to allocate them to the Army Division, but now the Intelligence Division needs it more. Then there is the funds. The commander allocated us 50,000 yuan. This has nothing to do with your salary, but Our Event Fees. "

   "Commander, what is our duty?" Luo Ping asked solemnly.

  Wang Gui couldn't help twisting his body, he also wanted to know.

Li Yanqing said with a slight smile: "We have two responsibilities. One is to collect and analyze intelligence to facilitate decision-making by the commander-in-chief. The other is to counter spy operations. We want to destroy the infiltration of Xixia spies into Hedong Road and prevent important officials from being captured by Xixia people. buy."

   Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, wouldn't this become a surveillance officer? Li Yanqing understood everyone's thoughts, so he nodded, "The Zhao Yuan incident has caused serious consequences, forcing the war preparations against Xixia to be extended. The commander assured the emperor that similar incidents will not happen again, but how can we guarantee it? Only rely on officials Promises are not enough, there must be measures, surveillance is the most important measure, the commander-in-chief handed over this power to us, in fact, this is part of the anti-espionage operation."

  Wang Gui couldn't help asking: "Don't we have spies who collect intelligence now?"

Li Yanqing said: "Now the border villages are responsible for collecting information. The spies like Wulong Village collect the information and hand it over to Sun Zhizhai. Sun Zhizhai selects important information and reports it to the commander. The various military villages do not communicate with each other. , a lot of small and important information will probably be ignored, and all the information will be directly gathered to us in the future, and we will analyze and sort it out and report it to the commander in chief. In the future, we will have 50 internal investigators."

   "What is introspection?"

"Internal investigation is our meticulous work, going deep into the cities of Xixia. In the past, our internal investigation was too weak and we didn't know anything about the internal mobilization of Xixia, so we were often in a passive state. Now we want to change this. The 50,000 guan Most of them are mainly used for inward exploration."

   "Joining the army is too difficult!" Zhao Wen whispered.

   "No matter how big it is, we have to do it. We can use the Qiang people in the army and businessmen to start doing it step by step. I plan to start from the left wing of the Xixia Army, and then expand slowly after gaining a firm foothold."

  Wang Gui scratched his head, "Um, talking so much all at once, I'm getting dizzy. What are we going to do now?"

  Everyone was deeply touched by the fact that there were so many affairs and heavy responsibilities that everyone didn't know where to start. This is really not something that ordinary people are capable of. No wonder the commander asked Li Yanqing, the director of the Army Department, to be in charge of the preparation.

Li Yanqing could feel everyone's fear of difficulties, so he smiled and comforted everyone: "I just want to give you an overview first, of course we have to go step by step, I will assign some relatively simple tasks to everyone, both of you will be responsible Go to select soldiers, I have already handed over the arrows and military orders to the chief Zhou Canjun, you go to Zhou Canjun, he will arrange it."

   "Follow the order!"

  Wang Gui and Luo Ping got up and saluted, and hurried out of the tent to find Zhou Yan, who was in charge of the army.

Li Yanqing smiled at Zhao Wen again: "You are in charge of arranging the school exams, and you can go to the military headquarters to temporarily second a few to help. If you need soldiers, the military headquarters also has them. You can go to Zhang Qu. I said hello to him yesterday. , Taiyuan Fuxue asked Deputy Professor Liu, even the goatee who received us yesterday, they will be in charge of the examination and examination papers, and will do their best to help you."

Zhao Wen got up and saluted and left. Li Yanqing finally said to Wu Xianliang: "Wu Canjun is temporarily in charge of materials. You go to Yan Jiuling. I have given him the material allocation list approved by the general. You can establish our yamen first." .”

   "Then where is our place?"

   "The open space behind the army department is ours. It was originally intended to be a wounded barracks, but the space is too small, so the commander-in-chief approved it for us, which is just right for us."

   "Understand the humble job, let's go!"

  Wu Xianliang saluted, got up and left, Li Yanqing hurriedly stopped him, and said: "Get the supplies first, set up camp and wait for 500 soldiers to do it."

   "The humble job knows!"

Li Yanqing arranged everything properly, and then went to the guest account. He still needs two internal affairs officers to join the army, one is in charge of logistics support, and the other is in charge of internal investigation. The candidates for these two people have already been selected, and they are both martial arts bachelors like Wang Gui. Son, not everyone is as unwilling to become a civil servant as Wang Gui and Niu Gao are. In fact, most martial arts scholars are eager to have the opportunity to become a civil servant.

  Li Yanqing came to get the guest tent and saw several martial arts scholars sitting in front of a big tent chatting, so he walked over and asked, "Do you have anyone named Wu Qian and Li De here?"

  Two young officers stood up, bowed and saluted, "We are!"

   "I am Li Yanqing from the Intelligence Department, you two come with me!"
