Xingji City, Jinlin Guard Yamen.
Du Ziming looked at the three maps on the wall silently and did not move for a long time.
After a long while, he took two steps and came to the map on the left.
This is a large-scale map of Star City.
Some of the key monitoring locations of Jinlin Guard are marked with various symbols and colors.
For example, the imperial palace, the four streets of Qinglong, Zhuque, Xuanwu and Baihu, as well as eight city gates and two east and west piers.
However, at this time, Du Ziming's eyes did not fall on those conspicuous landmarks in the past, but focused on the places where civilians lived and caravan gatherings such as Yiyangfang and Xingningfang's east and west cities.
squeak~
I don’t know how long it took, but the door at the back opened.
Two subordinate officers walked in quickly holding their swords.
"Sir, the Jinlin Guards, Jingzhao Prefecture and the police officers from all areas of Xingji City are ready and waiting for your order."
"Very good." Du Ziming turned around and slashed everything with his knife, "Proceed as planned, be fast! Make sure not one of the spies in Xingji City is caught. All of them are caught."
"yes!"
One of them responded loudly, turned around and walked away with a murderous look.
After a burst of noisy footsteps, only two people were left in the huge Jinlinwei Yamen.
"Sir," Gan Yixiu clicked his tongue and sighed, "the Duke's Mansion and the Grand Master's Mansion are really powerful. They unknowingly found out all the spies from various countries who were stationed in Star City."
The Jinlin Guards themselves were specially keeping tabs on them, but what they didn't expect was that the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion and the Grand Master's Mansion had already done this for them, and quietly.
Looking at the many locations marked on the map, each of which was accurate to the alley and house, Gan Yixiu couldn't help but kowtow.
This operation is simply more Jinlinwei than Jinlinwei.
snort.
Du Ziming's face turned red and he snorted angrily.
"What's so great? The Jinlin Guards are specially designed to keep an eye on the high-ranking mansions for Your Majesty. Most of the spies deployed by various countries are hidden among ordinary people. It's normal that we can't find them..."
As he spoke, his voice slowly dropped.
"Yi Xiu, do you think we should also follow the example of Zhen Guogong's Mansion and Taishi's Mansion, and place some manpower in civilian areas or even beggars and peddlers?"
Gan Yixiu nodded in agreement, "Your Majesty, I think you can consider it."
The Zhenguo Gongfu and Taishi's Mansion themselves have a strong influence among the people. On weekdays, they arrange people to provide free medical consultation and assistance work to the people. In the cold winter months, they even go out of the city to give porridge to those desperate people and refugees. A way to survive.
The people saw it in their eyes and remembered it in their hearts.
Therefore, whenever the two governments ask questions, they usually answer everything they know.
Those spies deployed by various countries usually remain secretive. Whether it is the Jinlin Guards, Jingzhao Mansion or even the Ministry of Punishment, it is always difficult to find them one by one.
But no matter what, these people always have to buy things and interact with neighbors. Once they are targeted by interested people, their identities can be easily revealed.
"Sir, after catching these spies, Xingji City should no longer be open to the public." Gan Yixiu said.
snort.
Du Ziming snorted angrily again.
"What do you know?"
"The spies must be caught. As for the news about Star City..."
The most correct approach should be to reveal the information that should be disclosed quickly, and the information that should not be disclosed should not reach the ears of the corresponding people.
Gan Xiuyi rolled his eyes in amusement.
He reacted quickly, "Sir, are you talking about the news of General Lu's return to the East China Sea Barrier?"
As soon as Lu Fuhai returned to Pinghai County, Ishikawa Taki of the Sishan Islands immediately launched an attack.
Moreover, most of the red dots marked on the Star City map in front of them are informants or spies of the Japanese pirates.
Gan Xiuyi definitely didn't believe it if he said there was no relationship between the two.
Du Ziming made no comment and just glared at him fiercely.
"Remember, our yamen seems to be so majestic that all high-ranking officials avoid it. But if you want to live a smooth life, in one word, don't ask what you shouldn't ask, and don't say what you shouldn't say."
Gan Xiuyi suddenly shrank his neck and said, "I will remember this."

Huayang County, Dinghai Wharf.
Central Corps Station.
Feng Haohan has been a little annoyed recently.
Fang Yinbao led several imperial envoys to search the Central Army Corps all day long.
The entire legion was helpless against them, unable to fight or stop them, which made them miserable now.
But to Feng Haohan, although Fang Yinbao was troublesome, there were people below him to deal with it, so it was nothing at all.
What bothered him was that Lu Fuhai was back.
"General," Commander Li's brows could almost kill mosquitoes, "What happened to Xingji City...?"
well.
Feng Haohan sighed, "I don't know."
"There has been no response to the information sent out, and the sources of intelligence in the past have also disappeared. Like you, I am now blind to the situation in Star City."
"This..." Several military advisors looked at each other, and finally they could only sigh: "It would be great if we were still in Ruinan County."
After all, Huayang County is still an unfamiliar place, and it is too far away from Xingji City.
No matter what they tried to do or inquire about, they usually couldn't.
Feng Haohan waved his hand, signaling the military advisors to stop discussing these unrealistic ideas, and looked southward.
"Lu Fuhai returned to the East China Sea Barrier, and was deprived of power by Xiao Zheng. What do you think is going on?"
Several military advisors looked at each other, and they were also confused.
"General, Lu Fuhai is closest to the Ministry of War. To put it bluntly, he is King Qi's men. The fact that he came out of Dali Temple unharmed shows that King Qi of Xingji City should have the upper hand at this stage."
Feng Haohan nodded slightly.
"But Lu Fuhai was given a part of the military power by Xiao Zheng, which shows that our prince is not without the power to backhand. The two of them are probably evenly matched."
"That's what Military Advisor Li said." Other military advisors agreed.
"But..." someone raised a question, "As we all know, the royal family has been suppressing the Xiao family for decades. Whether it is the prince or the prince of Qi, they cannot be unaware of this."
"Xiao Zheng has made some achievements in recent years, but he is not yet on an equal footing with Lu Fuhai. If he can rise to the top, unless there is someone behind him..."
Everyone was refreshed and turned to look east.
King Ning!
"Impossible, absolutely impossible." Military Advisor Li shook his head repeatedly, "If King Ning really wanted to fight for that position, he wouldn't have stayed in the barbarian land of Baekje now."
"Then tell me why Xiao Zheng can stand up again?"
"This..." Everyone was speechless.
"Sigh. After all, we still have too little information at hand to be able to tell the truth."
Feng Haohan had been listening silently, but now he suddenly said, "How many days will it take for the newspaper to be released?"'
There will be more or less news about Star City on it, and they may be able to get a glimpse of it.
There was silence in the conference room, and it took a long time for Military Advisor Li to speak hesitantly.
"General, it's only the tenth day of May, so it will take at least five more days. But..."
Judging from the current situation, it is unknown whether the newspaper will be delivered or when it will be delivered to Huayang County and the Central Army Corps.
