Sirio Leitch's words made Fang Lang fall into deep thought. He probably didn't think of this question temporarily, but had thought about it for a long time, otherwise he wouldn't have spoken in such a long way.
Since the person in charge of the intelligence agency has taken the initiative to raise this issue, there is no reason why Fang Lang should not pay attention to it.
After taking a serious look at Sirio Leitch, Fang Lang said seriously:
"How do you think it should be divided?"
Silio Reich looked at Fang Lang's face before speaking out what he was thinking. Now that he saw his serious face, he knew that his words had attracted the attention of the other party. This was of course a big deal for him. It's a good thing, after all, which subordinate doesn't want his superiors to value his opinions?
But for the question raised by Fang Lang, he had to think carefully before answering. This was a major event related to the future intelligence front of Brazil. He couldn't help but treat it with caution.
After picking up the teacup on the table and taking a few sips, Silio Reich said slowly:
"Boss, now there are only two ways for countries around the world to divide their intelligence agencies. One is to divide the labor according to the internal and external directions.
The other is to carry out different divisions of labor according to different units.
Both situations have their own advantages and disadvantages, and it mainly depends on the actual needs of each country. Let’s look at the current actual situation in Brazil.
The Second Section of our Logistics Department is actually mainly focused on internal counter-espionage work. External infiltration and intelligence collection work are not outstanding.
But now that you are asking us to shift our focus and carry out deeper penetration into Argentina and intelligence collection, we must strengthen our capabilities in foreign intelligence work.
In this case, my suggestion is to classify our intelligence agencies into two different working directions, internal and external. "
Hearing this, Fang Lang nodded first, then shook his head, and soon glanced at Sirio Leitch thoughtfully, with a hint of exploration in his deep eyes:
"Well! This method is good, but why not establish intelligence agencies based on the different divisions of labor in each unit, and then let these agencies set up their own internal and external departments?"
Facing Fang Lang's probing gaze, Silio Leitch did not flinch. He knew very well that Fang Lang was testing him to see if he was unwilling to spread his power for the sake of his own power.
Looking into Fang Lang's eyes calmly, he said directly and relaxedly:
"Brazil's intelligence agencies have all been developed with the support of you, the boss. If they are too scattered, they will be easily defeated by others, and in the end they will become a wedding dress for others. Let us lose control of the Brazilian intelligence agencies.
And being divided into two separate agencies, internal and external, does not prevent us from setting up separate branches in different departments or fields.
This will give us tighter control over our intelligence agencies than if they were too dispersed. "
Sirio Reich's words were very frank. These are very real situations. There must be some selfishness in them. After all, the current Brazilian intelligence agencies are supported by Fang Lang and led by Sirio Reich. Leitch built it up bit by bit.
He certainly didn't want the intelligence agency he had worked so hard to build to fall apart and escape his control. Similarly, he believed that Fang Lang would definitely not be willing to invest manpower and material resources, as well as a large amount of money and hard work to establish an intelligence agency. Because he wanted him to play a greater role, but instead got out of his control.
Therefore, at this point, Fang Lang and Sirio Leitch were on the same side, and there was no need to hide anything about their selfishness.
Of course, Fang Lang understood what Sirio Leitch expressed. Fang Lang also fully recognized Sirio Leitch's idea.
Fang Lang is not worried about whether this will cause the other party to lose its tail, because Sirio Leitch is not the only intelligence force Fang Lang has at his disposal.
There is also the Investigation Department of the Fangyuan Group formed by a group of intelligence experts with military background. This is an intelligence agency that is deeper than the Second Section of the Logistics Department.
Even the current Second Section of the Logistics Department has personnel from this organization lurking there. These intelligence personnel, who were first recruited by the Investigation Department of Fangyuan Group and then underwent rigorous training, were recruited into the Second Section of the Logistics Department by Fang Lang in various forms.
Then, after being screened and trained by the Second Section of the Logistics Division, they were sent to work in various subordinate intelligence agencies. These intelligence personnel who had undergone dual training were carefully selected by the Investigation Department, and their strength should not be underestimated. of.
Their family members all work under Fangyuan Group, and they know very well that their real boss is Fang Lang. Although the bosses behind several organizations are Fang Lang, they know very well that they have been the Fang family's private secret chess buried in the national intelligence agency from the beginning.
Their true allegiance is only to Fang Lang. In addition to completing their apparent intelligence work, they also need to help their boss and monitor the situation within the intelligence agency.
Once someone has a different intention, they will report it as soon as possible. Even if Silio Leitch wants to do something that harms Fang Lang's interests, they will respond immediately. It can be said that this is Fang Lang's real back-up plan.
Because Fang Lang later watched a lot of movies and TV shows about spy wars, which made him attach great importance to intelligence work, so he spared no effort in investing in the Investigation Department of Yuan Group.
In addition to the intelligence personnel of the Investigation Department whose families work in Fangyuan Group, the Investigation Department also has a very secret training school for intelligence personnel, which is very secretive.
The students in this school are all children adopted from orphanages around the world. These children are of different ages, boys and girls, and have different skin colors.
From the moment they are taken away from the orphanage, they are covered with a hooded mask that can only be removed the moment you leave the school.
No one knows their true faces except for a few instructors who are responsible for file management and training in makeup and disguise at the school.
Although they are in school, their identity information outside is always maintained by others. However, these people do not understand the significance of their maintenance of this information.
And the instructors who knew their true appearance and information never had the chance to leave from the moment they entered this school.
This school, which has been running quietly for more than two years, is still two years away from the graduation of its first batch of students.
Fang Lang believes that after these students graduate, Fang Lang's external intelligence capabilities will be rapidly improved. Even if the Cold War ends, these intelligence personnel can still provide the Fang family with a steady stream of research information on high-tech fields.
That's right, Fang Lang's main purpose of training them was not actually for military purposes, but to collect intelligence on the latest technological frontiers from countries around the world.
The reason why such secretive and rigorous training is conducted is to deal with the cruel and fierce espionage war during the Cold War.
After all, in the next few decades, most of this high-tech intelligence will come from the secret research institutes of the United States and the Soviet Union. If you want to obtain the cutting-edge scientific and technological information that the Fang family needs from these places, you must be prepared for the possibility of being hunted down by the intelligence agencies of the United States and the Soviet Union. .
Therefore, compared to the apparent intelligence agency such as the Second Logistics Department, Fang Lang paid more attention to the Investigation Department of Fangyuan Group that few people paid attention to.
This professional intelligence force in the Investigation Department that has gone through rigorous training in the school has an ordinary name, Warehouse No. 5. As for the location of Warehouse No. 5, no one can tell.
Even these students don't know who they are working for. Even if they were captured by the U.S. and Soviet intelligence agencies, the Fang family would not be exposed.
With such confidence and strength, Fang Lang would certainly not be afraid of Silio Reiki, and would not even listen to his command. Because at this time, among the most trusted people around him, there was already a secret hidden by Fang Lang.
After smiling slightly, Fang Lang gave the other party a cup of tea, then nodded firmly and said:
"Yeah! Very good! Let me be more specific. There is no need to have any scruples. You can speak freely and freely."
After receiving Fang Lang's affirmation, Silio Leitch breathed a sigh of relief. He was really worried that Fang Lang would suspect that he wanted to seize power. Although Fang Lang has always trusted him very much, the second department of the Logistics Department is no longer what it used to be.
After several years of rapid development, it has become a decisive force in Brazil. It is no exaggeration to say that 80% of any disturbance in Brazil cannot escape their ears and eyes.
Of course, Sirio Leitch, who holds such a force, has to walk on thin ice. First, he is afraid of betraying Fang Lang's trust and support. The second is that he is afraid of arousing Fang Lang's suspicion.
Now Fang Lang's attitude made him understand that his position in Fang Lang's heart had not been shaken. This made him relieved and at the same time, he was even more grateful to Fang Lang.
Now that Fang Lang let him speak freely, he no longer hid it and said directly:
“Boss, my idea is to reuse the identity of the Brazilian Intelligence Agency, since you are going to let the Brazilian Intelligence Agency arrange manpower to infiltrate Argentina.
Then we can simply build the Brazilian Intelligence Agency into our external intelligence agency, responsible for collecting foreign military, political, economic and other intelligence.
The Naval Intelligence Office and the Intelligence Police are responsible for domestic counterintelligence work, so that internal and external division of labor can be completed without making our intelligence department too bloated and affecting work efficiency. "
Fang Lang generally agreed with Sirio Leitch's idea, but it may not be appropriate for the Naval Intelligence Office and the Intelligence Police to be responsible for domestic counterintelligence work at the same time.
Because this will lead to overlapping responsibilities of the two departments, which will not only waste resources. At the same time, there may also be incidents of buck-passing and wrangling.
Therefore, after Fang Lang pondered for a while, he slowly shook his head and said:
“It’s okay for the Brazilian Intelligence Service to specialize in foreign intelligence work, and it’s appropriate for the Intelligence Police to be responsible for domestic counterintelligence, but it’s not necessary for the Naval Intelligence Service and the Intelligence Police to be responsible for the same work.
How about this! Let’s separate this military intelligence area separately! The Naval Intelligence Office will be divided into two parts, internal and external, but their work scope will only be within the navy.
If there is an opportunity in the future, we will see if we can propose the establishment of an Air Force Intelligence Service and an Army Intelligence Service. Specially responsible for the intelligence work of the air and land forces. "
After hearing Fang Lang's words, Sirio Leitch did not have any dissatisfaction. Of course, he knew that the intelligence police and the Naval Intelligence Department would have overlapping duties. The reason why he did not point it out was that he originally wanted Fang Lang to cancel the Naval Intelligence Department. departments.
But after all, Fang Lang had just proposed the establishment of this department, and it was really taboo for him, a subordinate, to immediately propose its cancellation.
Unexpectedly, Fang Lang now directly made the Naval Intelligence Department independent. In this case, the power in his hands may be divided into three parts in the future.
But I have to say that Fang Lang's idea is correct. The importance of military intelligence is obviously very important. If it is listed separately, he has nothing to say.
This is indeed more conducive to the collection of special intelligence. As long as I still control the Second Section of the Logistics Department, I can hide behind the scenes and supervise the three intelligence agencies.
"Yes, boss! You are far-sighted and see the problem more comprehensively. I will follow you and learn more."
Hearing this, Fang Lang glared at this guy speechlessly. When did this kid start to learn to flatter him?
Seeing Fang Lang's eyes, Sirio Leitch naturally knew what Fang Lang meant. He coughed twice and put away the slightly flattering smile on his face in embarrassment.
What he didn't know was that at this moment, Fang Lang was already thinking about whether the Second Department of the Logistics Department still had meaning.
Now, he is destined to leave the Rio de Janeiro aircraft carrier fleet and become the real leader of the Navy Department. It was also decided to redistribute the labor of Brazil's intelligence agencies and let the intelligence police be responsible for domestic counterintelligence work.
So now the monitoring of US and Soviet spies must be handed over to the intelligence police. In this way, the original manpower of the Second Section of the Logistics Department will almost be completely divided among several intelligence agencies.
Under such circumstances, it is actually inappropriate for the Second Logistics Division to continue to hide under the command of the Rio de Janeiro Fleet. Might as well simply eliminate this division from the fleet.
Fang Lang is a straightforward person. He was discussing this issue now. Now that he has a new idea, he will not hesitate and says directly:
"Let's do this! I will set up an intelligence analysis room to replace the current Second Section of the Logistics Department. As my intelligence adjutant, you will be responsible for managing this intelligence analysis room.
All intelligence collected by the Brazilian Intelligence Service, the Intelligence Police and the Naval Intelligence Service needs to be uploaded to your analysis room for archiving.
Externally, you have no leadership role over them, but you actually have management functions. This will not only facilitate the analysis of all collected intelligence, but also facilitate your management.
Even if something happens to them by then, it will only be a matter for their organization. If other countries want to retaliate, they can only target them. And your analysis room only receives the intelligence uploaded by them for analysis. It is difficult for people to think that you are the person in charge.
This can hide us behind the scenes as much as possible without being noticed. "
The reason why Fang Lang always wanted to hide himself behind the scenes was not because he was afraid of retaliation from other countries. But he doesn't want people in Brazil to know that he is the real leader of these intelligence agencies.
With his status, he is likely to cause uneasiness to many people. At that time, many people will jump out and make irresponsible remarks, which is not conducive to Fang Lang's future plans.
