One afternoon in early December of the Gregorian calendar 1630, the pale yellow setting sun shone on Bai Echuo Wharf. [No pop-up novel website] After the thieves retreated, the market here returned to its former prosperity. The boats that had escaped returned one after another and continued their original business. It gets late and early in winter, but when I plant at three or four in the afternoon, the sun is already setting. "Lao Ju" on the boat, Ai'er and the Turtles were all active on the boat, preparing for the evening business.
Scaffolding has been set up on the burned city tower, and craftsmen are rebuilding the city tower that was burned by rockets. The burned-out Wuyang Station and Jieguan Hall outside the city gate are also being rebuilt. There are a lot of pedestrians and cars. Last year, the scene where the Australian troops came to the city to kill Xiao Ge has disappeared without a trace. Many people feel that after the arrival of the fashionable nv, the four townships of Guangzhou are much calmer than before. The large-scale purge operations carried out by the First Army on Henan Island and on both sides of the Pearl River eliminated a large number of bandits, gangsters and toubobs in the four townships.
At the entrance of the Nancheng Gate, a small sedan, surrounded by a dozen servants, came from the riverside pier on the Wuyangyi side. The person leading the way was a young and pretty young servant.
As the sedan entered the gate of the city, I suddenly met the Censor of Guangdong, sitting in a large sedan carrying green cloth and bright gauze. The deacons and deacons led the way, supporting them in front and behind, and came towards me, shouting all the way. The young servant quickly directed the sedan chair and the entourage to move to the side of the road to clear the way. Wait until the official service of sedan and horse is over before you resume.
In the sedan, a pair of trained eyes watched the passing procession from behind the veil. A servant next to the sedan whispered: "This is Gao Shunqin's sedan!"
After the proud horses patrolling Guangdong had passed, the group continued on their way. After walking through the streets and alleys of the city for an unknown amount of time, we finally came to a secluded courtyard. The people in the sedan came out, stretched their muscles and breathed a sigh of relief. I saw a man coming out of the main room of the courtyard, dressed like a Ming businessman, it was Lin Baiguang.
The original procedures such as passwords are no longer needed. The visitor silently shook hands with Lin Baiguang.
"I guess which squad leader the executive committee will send, it turns out to be you." Lin Baiguang said, "You don't want to engage in public security warfare anymore?"
"I am just making an outline of the security war, and then I will try it out in practice. The effect in Yanzhou is still good. Next is the promotion in Quanqiongzhou. The specific implementation is a matter of the 6th Army. Besides, besides me, there are other more suitable tasks for this mission. Can you choose?" The person who came was a tall and strong man with a strong back and a strong body. It was Xue Ziliang.
"Are these your boys?" Lin Qiaoguang did not comment on his boasting. She glanced at the followers who were already lined up, waiting for orders.
Xue Ziliang said: "A total of 8 people were selected, and they are all the best players in the team."
Lin Baiguang asked Chen Tong, who was leading them into the city: "Is the entry into the city smooth?"
Chen Tong nodded: "It went well, but the post I brought was of no use. We also met Gao Xun's sedan horse at the gate of the city."
Lin Baiguang smiled silently. The order was: "Take these brothers to rest. Let them recharge their batteries."
At present, Chen Tong took the members of the special reconnaissance team to rest. Lin Baiguang brought Xue Ziliang to the main room. This is the secret base of the Guangzhou Secret Service of the Foreign Intelligence Service. It is decorated like an ordinary merchant's residence. He manages the entire team under the Black Dragon Society system of the Foreign Intelligence Service.
Lin Baiguang did not ask Xue Ziliang to sit down, but went directly behind the wall and opened an inconspicuous small door. There is a long and narrow corridor inside. At the end, there is another door. When you open the lock, you will find a windowless room, which is dark.
Lin Baiguang lit the gas lamp in the room, and the room suddenly became bright. Xue Ziliang looked around curiously. This room seemed very big. In addition to the one they were in, there were also doors leading to other rooms.
"This is my safe house." Lin Baiguang introduced. As he spoke, he took out a bottle of kvass from the cabinet. "Tell me about this mission." "
"Okay." Xue Ziliang said, "The executive committee has decided to completely deal with Gao Shunqin."
Gao Shunqin was a fierce "anti-barbarian faction" in the entire Guangzhou officialdom. Whether they were red horses, Franks or Australians who appeared from nowhere, they were all targets he wanted to expel. Although when the bandits came to the city, Gao Xunjian had no good plan to retreat from the enemy, but he won the applause of many "angry youth" scholars in Guangzhou for his uncompromising attitude. Although Governor Li's secret "paying compensation to retreat the enemy" was concealed at the time, it has gradually become popular recently. Many scholars had forgotten the embarrassment they were in when the bandits released rockets to attack the city, and they all generously criticized Governor Li for "traitoring the country and seeking glory." Because Gao Shunqin's last petition to ban the Francois from entering the city was progressing smoothly in the capital; his confidence was greatly increased, and he was ready to take action against Li Fengjie and publish an impeachment post.
"Gao Shunqin's position in Guangdong's official circles is very important. His words and deeds influence a large number of officials." Lin Baiguang hopes to solve Gao Shunqin's situation for more than a day or two. Wang Zunde has died of illness and is no longer an obstacle for the travelers to control Guangdong. But if Gao Shunqin continues to exist in Guangzhou, both officials and common people will have concerns when cooperating with Lingao. And some of the "anti-barbarian" elements, which are not only some scholars, but also industrial and commercial people who have been harmed by Lingao's trade impact, will unite around this flag and form a quite large-scale anti-Lingao group.
"Decided to kill him?" Lin Baiguang asked. Although he was in favor of eradicating this obstacle, he had to worry about the consequences. Gao Shunqin was not a lowly official, but a patrol officer in Guangdong. Once he was killed, the court would definitely investigate him. For Guangdong, it is nothing less than an official earthquake.
Xue Ziliang gave it a try: "To be precise: let him disappear."
"Missing?"
"Yes, the Foreign Intelligence Service discussed it and decided that if he was killed, it would be a big case. It would be better to disappear so that it would be difficult for the court to make a judgment."
"You mean I was kidnapped."
"Yes." Xue Ziliang said, "bloodless kidnapping."
"What's the point of this?" Lin Qiaoguang was a little disappointed, "Kidnapping is too troublesome! It's better to just kill him and destroy the corpse. It's still considered a missing person."
"It is difficult to completely destroy the corpses and traces in Guangzhou city." Xue Ziliang told Ji Ge that the special investigation team planned to kidnap Gao Xunbu directly. Then I took him to meet him near Guangzhou from time to time. Finally, they were taken away from Guangdong.
"Let everyone think that Inspector Gao ran away on his own?"
"Absolutely."
"Damn, this doesn't make sense. He is an official of the imperial court. He would abandon his official position and family and run away unless he was crazy." Lin Guangguang found it unbelievable, "Why not poison him? Get some biological agents or something."
"It's better to say that he is ignorant. If everyone is talking about it and can't figure out the motive, it has nothing to do with us." Xue Ziliang said, "Using other methods, whether it is to make him "die of illness" or to be killed, will cause material disputes and lead to It is very likely that the spearhead of the discussion will be aimed at us. "
Lin Baiguang felt that this plan was not very satisfactory. But Gao Shunqin can no longer exist. The members of the Guangzhou group will soon return to Guangzhou. They have a huge business plan. The presence of such a tough leader of the anti-barbarian faction will be an obstacle to the military.
Needless to say, when the time comes, he will mobilize hundreds of scholars and other figures to surround the big gate of Ziming Tower, which will be enough for Pei Lixiu to drink a pot. If he incites the people to "burn down Ziming Tower"... Lin Baiguang was quite familiar with the process of the anti-invasion struggle in Guangzhou and several other port cities after the First Opium War.
The ideal solution would be to promote the high-ranking patrol officers or move them away in parallel. Lin Baiguang thought, the so-called comprehensive soft treatment. But the Senate did not yet have such influence in the Ming bureaucracy.
"What are you going to do? What support do you want from us?"
"I need Gao Shunqin's activity patterns, the floor plan of the patrol office and his residence. It is best for buildings to have elevations."
"The activity pattern is easy. The two floor plans take a little time."
"how long?"
"A week." Lin Baiguang said.
"Give me another floor plan of the entire city of Guangzhou. The more detailed the better."
"No problem, I have this now."
He took out a large piece of paper from a locked safe and spread it out on the large conference table in the room. This is a large-scale urban traffic map of Guangzhou.
"It's so detailed." Xue Ziliang looked at the light of the gas lamp and was very pleasantly surprised.
"No wonder Bei Fei said you all have them here. You don't need me to take them with you."
"Of course, the Guangzhou map in the big library is also provided by Guangzhou Station." Lin Baiguang said, "Shopkeeper Guo is not just a shopkeeper."
Xue Ziliang laughed: "Who told him to become the "man who had women first" and had n women? The group of elders who can't stand him are just jealous and jealous."
Lin Baiguang smiled noncommittally, affirming Guo Yi's efforts in his words, but he did not intend to attack others.
"Have our weapons and equipment arrived?"
"Here we are, right here."
The weapons, equipment and clothing of the special reconnaissance team were transported separately and mixed into the cargo before being transported into the city. The secret is hidden in the secret warehouse of the secret service. Xue Ziliang checked and found that the seal on the box was intact and the weapons and equipment were in good condition.
"You can give me an order for the clothing, transportation tools and other things you need, and I will arrange them all."
Xue Ziliang is very satisfied that without good cooperation when performing tasks, it will be a disaster. The so-called teammates who are most afraid of pigs are like pigs. The special reconnaissance team has been to the mainland many times to perform military reconnaissance and raid missions, but this is the first time they have gone deep into a big city to kidnap important people. Based on his experience in another time and space, such an operation would be impossible without the cooperation of local intelligence personnel. He was initially satisfied with the performance of the Guangzhou secret service under Lin Baiguang's control. (To be continued
